NCT00317889

Brief Summary

This is a prospective, randomized study comparing two different bone preparation techniques for insertion of a porous coated titanium cementless femoral stem. Patients receiving a bilateral total hip replacement are randomized to conventional broaching on one side and compaction on the other side. Hypothesis: Compaction results in significantly less stem migration \[evaluated by radiostereometric analysis (RSA)\], less peri-prosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) loss \[evaluated by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)\], and a higher Harris hip score after two years.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with primary arthritis in the hip
  • Patients with sufficient bone density to allow uncemented implantation of a femoral component
  • Informed patient consent in writing

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with neuromuscular or vascular disease in the affected leg
  • Patients found upon operation to be unsuited for uncemented acetabulum component
  • Patients who regularly take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and cannot interrupt intake for the postoperative phase of the study
  • Patients with fracture sequelae
  • Female patients of childbearing capacity
  • Hip joint dysplasia
  • Sequelae to previous hip joint disorder in childhood.
