Description

We radiographically examined the cementing grade in the cases using the medullary-plug cementing technique of femoral stem in Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA).<br>Among patients with coxarthrosis who received THA in our department from 1979, 9 patients (10 hips) were treated with no medullary-plug. Their age at the time of surgery ranged from 56 to 76 years with a mean of 67.4 years. Another group who were treated with a medullary plug comprised 12 patients (13 hips) aged between 58 and 82 years with a mean of 67.5 years.<br>Results were judged radiographically according to cementing grade and loosening.<br>Use of the medullary plug cementing technique decreased the rate of aseptic loosening of the femoral stem of THA in this short-term follow-up study.
