There is growing evidence that cemented femoral stems have lower complication rates in the elderly due to lower rates of periprosthetic fracture. The main objective of this study was to analyze the survival rate of a hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) construct utilizing a taper-slip femoral stem implanted through the anterior approach (AA). Secondary outcome measures were the complication rate, the rate of aseptic loosening, coronal plane alignment of the stem, and the grade of the cement mantle.
Patients who underwent AA hybrid THA from 2013 to 2020 were included. Indications for a cemented stem were age over 70 or patients with poor bone quality. Descriptive statistics were calculated for patient characteristics. Serial radiographs were reviewed for component alignment and for evidence of implant loosening. The survival of the femoral stem was recorded, with failure defined as femoral stem revision for any reason or radiographic evidence of implant loosening.
A total of 473 hybrid THA in 426 patients were identified, with a mean age of 76 years. Mean follow-up was 38 months. Femoral stem survival was 99.2%. There were no cases of aseptic loosening of the femoral component. Mean coronal stem alignment was 0.2 degrees varus, and all were within 5 degrees of neutral. Cement mantle grade was either A or B in 94% of cases.
AA hybrid THA is an excellent option in elderly patients, or patients with poor bone quality, with a femoral stem survival rate of 99.2% and a 0% rate of aseptic loosening.
