Abstract
BACKGROUND Most primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs) performed in the United States utilize cementless fixation with porous or hydroxyapatite (HA) coating. A previous meta-analysis comparing HA-coated versus non-HA-coated stems in primary THA published in 2013 found no significant difference between the 2. However, an updated analysis of the current literature is needed to assess the potential benefit of HA-coated stems in primary THA. METHODS Various libraries were searched through May 2022 according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies included were randomized controlled trials comparing HA-coated femoral stems to non-HA-coated stems in primary THA. Outcomes included Harris Hip Score (HHS), endosteal bone formation, radiolucent lines, linear wear rate, revision for aseptic loosening, thigh pain, and heterotopic ossification. RESULTS There were significantly fewer revisions for aseptic loosening (P = .004) and decreased postoperative thigh pain (P = .03) for patients who have with HA-coated stems. There was no significant difference in HHS (P = .20), endosteal bone formation (P = .96), radiolucent lines (P = .75), linear wear rate (P = .41), or heterotopic ossification (P = .71) between HA-coated and non-HA-coated stems. CONCLUSION We found that HA-coated femoral stems in primary THA led to significantly fewer stem revisions for aseptic loosening and less postoperative thigh pain compared to non-HA-coated stems. These findings suggest HA-coated femoral stems should be preferred over non-HA-coated femoral stems in primary THA.

Abstract
Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival of a collarless, straight, hydroxyapatite-coated femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA) at a minimum follow-up of 20 years. Methods We reviewed the results of 165 THAs using the Omnifit HA system in 138 patients, performed between August 1993 and December 1999. The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 46 years (20 to 77). Avascular necrosis was the most common indication for THA, followed by ankylosing spondylitis and primary osteoarthritis. The mean follow-up was 22 years (20 to 31). At 20 and 25 years, 113 THAs in 91 patients and 63 THAs in 55 patients were available for review, respectively, while others died or were lost to follow-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the survival of the stem. Radiographs were reviewed regularly, and the stability of the stem was evaluated using the Engh classification. Results A total of seven stems (4.2%) were revised during the study period: one for aseptic loosening, three for periprosthetic fracture, two for infection, and one for recurrent dislocation. At 20 years, survival with revision of the stem for any indication and for aseptic loosening as the endpoint was 96.0% (95% confidence interval (CI) 92.6 to 99.5) and 98.4% (95% CI 96.2 to 100), respectively. At 25 years, the corresponding rates of survival were 94.5% (95% CI 89.9 to 99.3) and 98.1% (95% CI 95.7 to 99.6), respectively. There was radiological evidence of stable bony fixation in 86 stems (76.1%) and evidence of loosening in four (3.5%) at 20 years. All patients with radiological evidence of loosening were asymptomatic. Conclusion The Omnifit HA femoral stem offered promising long-term survival into the third decade.

Does hydroxyapatite coating have no advantage over porous coating in primary total hip arthroplasty? A meta-analysis. J Orthop Surg Res 2015; 10:21. [PMID: 25626520 PMCID: PMC4314743 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-015-0161-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2014] [Accepted: 01/08/2015] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
There are some arguments between the use of hydroxyapatite and porous coating. Some studies have shown that there is no difference between these two coatings in total hip arthroplasty (THA), while several other studies have shown that hydroxyapatite has advantages over the porous one. We have collected the studies in Pubmed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library from the earliest possible years to present, with the search strategy of “(HA OR hydroxyapatite) AND ((total hip arthroplasty) OR (total hip replacement)) AND (RCT* OR randomiz* OR control* OR compar* OR trial*)”. The randomized controlled trials and comparative observation trials that evaluated the clinical and radiographic effects between hydroxyapatite coating and porous coating were included. Our main outcome measurements were Harris hip score (HHS) and survival, while the secondary outcome measurements were osteolysis, radiolucent lines, and polyethylene wear. Twelve RCTs and 9 comparative observation trials were included. Hydroxyapatite coating could improve the HHS (p < 0.01), reduce the incidence of thigh pain (p = 0.01), and reduce the incidence of femoral osteolysis (p = 0.01), but hydroxyapatite coating had no advantages on survival (p = 0.32), polyethylene wear (p = 0.08), and radiolucent lines (p = 0.78). Hydroxyapatite coating has shown to have an advantage over porous coating. The HHS and survival was duration-dependent—if given the sufficient duration of follow-up, hydroxyapatite coating would be better than porous coating for the survival. The properties of hydroxyapatite and the implant design had influence on thigh pain incidence, femoral osteolysis, and polyethylene wear. Thickness of 50 to 80 μm and purity larger than 90% increased the thigh pain incidence. Anatomic design had less polyethylene wear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The association between excessive early migration of acetabular cups and late aseptic revision has been scantily reported. We therefore performed 2 parallel systematic reviews and meta-analyses to determine the association between early migration of acetabular cups and late aseptic revision. METHODS One review covered early migration data from radiostereometric analysis (RSA) studies, while the other focused on revision rates for aseptic loosening from long-term survival studies. Thresholds for acceptable and unacceptable migration were classified according the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register and the Australian National Joint Replacement Registry: < 5% revision at 10 years. RESULTS Following an elaborate literature search, 26 studies (involving 700 cups) were included in the RSA review and 49 studies (involving 38,013 cups) were included in the survival review. For every mm increase in 2-year proximal migration, there was a 10% increase in revision rate, which remained after correction for age, sex, diagnosis, hospital type, continent, and study quality. Consequently, proximal migration of up to 0.2 mm was considered acceptable and proximal migration of 1.0 mm or more was considered unacceptable. Cups with proximal migration of between 0.2 and 1.0 mm were considered to be at risk of having revision rates higher than 5% at 10 years. INTERPRETATION There was a clinically relevant association between early migration of acetabular cups and late revision due to loosening. The proposed migration thresholds can be implemented in a phased evidence-based introduction, since they allow early detection of high-risk cups while exposing a small number of patients.

[PMID: 19730963 PMCID: PMC2882022 DOI: 10.1007/s11999-009-1066-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2009] [Accepted: 08/14/2009] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Following recent reports of poor results with the hydroxyapatite-coated ABG I prosthesis, we report the survival of a series of 63 patients (69 hips) at a mean of 15 years (range, 13-17 years). In total, eight patients had revision procedures. The reason for revision was acetabular loosening in all cases. In only one case was there associated clinical and radiographic loosening of the femoral stem. The 15-year survival of the acetabular component was 86.9% (95% confidence interval, 71.7%-96.0%) and the 15-year survival of the femoral component was 98.6% (95% confidence interval, 88.8%-100.0%). Periacetabular osteolysis was seen in 10 of 59 (17%) surviving hips. In these hips the components remained well fixed owing to the remaining bone-component contact. There was no difference in the Oxford hip score between patients with well-fixed hips and evidence of osteolysis and patients with hips without evidence of osteolysis. Multivariate analysis failed to reveal any factors associated with the presence of osteolysis (gender, age at primary surgery, Oxford hip score, cup abduction, and acetabular polyethylene wear rates). The ABG I prosthesis continues to show excellent long-term results. Ongoing radiographic review is recommended to detect progressive osteolysis that otherwise remains clinically silent until failure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, Case series. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
