EARLY RADIOLOGIC ASSESSMENT OF REVISION TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY WITH THE RECLAIM MODULAR REVISION HIP SYSTEM
2018
Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) presents with increasing challenges, potentially compromising the integrity of a revision. The objective of this study was to assess radiologic outcomes of patients who underwent revision THA with a modular tapered stem (Reclaim, DePuy Synthes). This study retrospectively examined all revision Reclaim THAs between 2012 and 2016. Radiologic assessment compared x-rays at two time points: immediately after surgery and the most recent x-ray available. Leg length discrepancy, subsidence and line-to-line fit was assessed. Significant subsidence was considered ≥10mm. Adequate line-to-line fit was considered ≥30mm of bicortical contact. Descriptive statistics included clinical factors (i.e. age, Paprosky classification). P values <0.05 were considered significant. A total of 81 femoral revisions were completed. There were 42 females and 38 males with a mean age of 71 years (range, 46–89). Of these, 6 were revised (dislocation, fracture or infection), and 7 were lost to follow...
