Clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasty using a highly porous titanium cup or a conventional hydroxyapatite-coated titanium cup: A retrospective study in Japanese patients

説明
A highly porous titanium cup has a unique structure that mimics human trabecular bone and is expected to achieve better outcomes due to rigid fixation and extensive bone ingrowth. Several manufacturers have developed a highly porous titanium cup; however, some have shown a high incidence of radiolucent lines (RLLs) on early postoperative radiographs. In this study, we compared the clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a highly porous titanium cup (OsseoTi, Zimmer Biomet) with those after THA using a conventional hydroxyapatite-coated titanium cup (Trident HA, Stryker).A total of 201 hips that underwent THA using an OsseoTi cup (n = 101) or Trident cup (n = 100) were enrolled in the study. Patient characteristics, cup alignment, clinical outcome (determined by the Japanese Orthopedic Association [JOA] score), and incidence of RLLs around the cup were evaluated at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively.The clinical outcome was excellent in both groups. The incidence of RLLs was 12.9% at 3 months, 20.8% at 6 months, 23.8% at 12 months, and 22.8% at 24 months after surgery in the OsseoTi group; there were no cases of RLL at any time after surgery in the Trident group. The RLLs were mainly distributed in zone 2. Despite the high rate of RLL in the OsseoTi group, the RLL were narrow and only 5% had a width of1 mm at 24 months postoperatively. There were no cases with RLLs in all three zones.Despite excellent clinical outcomes in both study groups, the incidence of RLLs was higher in the OsseoTi group than in the Trident group. Although none of our cases with RLL have required revision surgery for aseptic loosening so far, these patients require careful follow-up.
