Abstract
A The present overview describes various production techniques for biocompatible calcium orthophosphate (abbreviated as CaPO4) deposits (coatings, films and layers) on the surfaces of various types of substrates to impart the biocompatible properties for artificial bone grafts. Since, after being implanted, the grafts always interact with the surrounding biological tissues at the interfaces, their surface properties are considered critical to clinical success. Due to the limited number of materials that can be tolerated in vivo, a new specialty of surface engineering has been developed to desirably modify any unacceptable material surface characteristics while maintaining the useful bulk performance. In 1975, the development of this approach led to the emergence of a special class of artificial bone grafts, in which various mechanically stable (and thus suitable for load-bearing applications) implantable biomaterials and artificial devices were coated with CaPO4. Since then, more than 7500 papers have been published on this subject and more than 500 new publications are added annually. In this review, a comprehensive analysis of the available literature has been performed with the main goal of finding as many deposition techniques as possible and more than 60 methods (double that if all known modifications are counted) for producing CaPO4 deposits on various substrates have been systematically described. Thus, besides the introduction, general knowledge and terminology, this review consists of two unequal parts. The first (bigger) part is a comprehensive summary of the known CaPO4 deposition techniques both currently used and discontinued/underdeveloped ones with brief descriptions of their major physical and chemical principles coupled with the key process parameters (when possible) to inform readers of their existence and remind them of the unused ones. The second (smaller) part includes fleeting essays on the most important properties and current biomedical applications of the CaPO4 deposits with an indication of possible future developments.

Bohara S, Suthakorn J. Surface coating of orthopedic implant to enhance the osseointegration and reduction of bacterial colonization: a review. Biomater Res 2022; 26:26. [PMID: 35725501 PMCID: PMC9208209 DOI: 10.1186/s40824-022-00269-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The use of orthopedic implants in surgical technology has fostered restoration of physiological functions. Along with successful treatment, orthopedic implants suffer from various complications and fail to offer functions correspondent to native physiology. The major problems include aseptic and septic loosening due to bone nonunion and implant site infection due to bacterial colonization. Crucial advances in material selection in the design and development of coating matrixes an opportunity for the prevention of implant failure. However, many coating materials are limited in in-vitro testing and few of them thrive in clinical tests. The rate of implant failure has surged with the increasing rates of revision surgery creating physical and sensitive discomfort as well as economic burdens. To overcome critical pathogenic activities several systematic coating techniques have been developed offering excellent results that combat infection and enhance bone integration. This review article includes some more common implant coating matrixes with excellent in vitro and in vivo results focusing on infection rates, causes, complications, coating materials, host immune responses and significant research gaps. This study provides a comprehensive overview of potential coating technology, with functional combination coatings which are focused on ultimate clinical practice with substantial improvement on in-vivo tests. This includes the development of rapidly growing hydrogel coating techniques with the potential to generate several accurate and precise coating procedures.

Abstract
Background: The increasing demand for bone implants with improved osseointegration properties has prompted researchers to develop various coating types for metal implants. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a method for producing nanoscale coatings conformally on complex three-dimensional surfaces. We have prepared hydroxyapatite (HA) coating on titanium (Ti) substrate with the ALD method and analyzed the biocompatibility of this coating in terms of cell adhesion and viability. Methods: HA coatings were prepared on Ti substrates by depositing CaCO3 films by ALD and converting them to HA by wet treatment in dilute phosphate solution. MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts were cultured on ALD-HA, glass slides and bovine bone slices. ALD-HA and glass slides were either coated or non-coated with fibronectin. After 48h culture, cells were imaged with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and analyzed by vinculin antibody staining for focal adhesion localization. An 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) test was performed to study cell viability. Results: Vinculin staining revealed similar focal adhesion-like structures on ALD-HA as on glass slides and bone, albeit on ALD-HA and bone the structures were thinner compared to glass slides. This might be due to thin and broad focal adhesions on complex three-dimensional surfaces of ALD-HA and bone. The MTT test showed comparable cell viability on ALD-HA, glass slides and bone. Conclusion: ALD-HA coating was shown to be biocompatible in regard to cell adhesion and viability. This leads to new opportunities in developing improved implant coatings for better osseointegration and implant survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study compared the incidence of osteolysis, aseptic loosening, and revision following use of highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) or conventional polyethylene (CPE) at medium to long-term (>5 to 15 years) follow-up in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Incidences were quantified and compared with regard to age and method of implant fixation. METHODS Using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, 12 randomized controlled trials and 18 cohort studies were investigated for evidence-based outcomes following HXPLE and CPE use in 2,539 hips over a 5 to 15-year follow-up. RESULTS Lower rates of osteolysis, aseptic loosening, and implant revision were reported following use of HXLPE liners. Osteolysis was reduced from 25.4% with CPE to 4.05% with HXLPE in young patients, and from 29.7% to 6.6% in the older patient cohort. Similarities in osteolysis rates were observed when cemented (24.9% for CPE and 6.5% for HXLPE) and uncemented components (32.8% for CPE and 7.1% for HXLPE) were compared. No clear advantage in the type of HXLPE used was observed. CONCLUSIONS Over a follow-up period of up to 15 years, when compared with CPE, use of HXLPE liners reduced the incidence of osteolysis, aseptic loosening, and implant revision, regardless of the fixation method and including in younger and potentially more active patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
PURPOSE The treatment of osteochondral defects in joint cartilage remains challenging due to its limited repair capacity. This study presents a metallic osteochondral plug with hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated cap edges for improved implant-tissue contact. The hypothesis was that improved attachment prevents from synovial fluid-influx and thereby avoids osteolysis and resulting implant instability. METHODS In total, 24 female, adult sheep were randomized into three groups. All animals received an Episealer®-implant in the medial condyle of the right knee. The implants were coated with two different HA versions or uncoated (control group). After 12 weeks, the implant-tissue connections were analysed radiologically and histologically. RESULTS In general, the groups with the coated cap edges showed a better quality of tissue connection to the implant. The occurrence of gaps between tissue and implant was more seldom, the binding of calcified and hyaline cartilage to the cap was significantly better than in the uncoated group. A histomorphometrically measured lower amount of void space in these groups compared to the group with the uncoated edges confirmed that. CONCLUSIONS The hypothesis of a tighter cartilage bone contact was confirmed. The HA coating of the implant's cap edges resulted in better adherence of cartilage to the implant, which was not previously reported. In conclusion, this led to a better contact between implant and cartilage as well as neighbouring bone. In clinical routine, joint fluid is aggressive, penetrates through cartilage rifts, and promotes osteolysis and loosening of implants. The observed sealing effect will act to prevent joint fluid to get access to the implant-tissue interfaces. Joint fluid is aggressive, can cause osteolysis, and can, clinically cause pain. These effects are liable to decrease with these findings and will further the longevity of these osteochondral implants.

Abstract
Biologically compatible coatings that provide hermetic seal could resolve a major technological hurdle in the attempt to replace metals with polymers for biochips and active medical implants. The use of amorphous carbon/diamond like carbon (a-C:H) coatings to hermetically seal and biologically enhance polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK) for biomedical device integration in the human body was investigated. The PEEK coating functionality (sp3/sp2 ratio), hardness and thickness (70-200nm) were controlled, by varying H2 and N2 concentration during the plasma operation with CH4. a-C:H coatings having the highest indentation modulus of 13.5GPa, originate out of a CH4 (90%) rich composition. Even in a mixture of 70/30 H2/CH4 the hardness is 4.76GPa, corresponding to hard and dense coatings. In all tested conditions of deposition coatings hardens was sufficient for the purpose of PEEK implants modification. The synthesized (a-C:H) nanoscale coatings were not water permeable as measured by the hydrolysis test, resolving the traditional challenge of swelling in wet environment. The hardness of the coatings showed strong correlations with the thickness, surprisingly however, with no correlations with the sp3/sp2 ratio. Selected non water permeable nanoscale coating on PEEK showed strong bioactivity by being viable for human osteoblast (hFOB) and human fibroblast (hGF) cells without toxicity issues. No correlation was observed between the coatings sp3/sp2 ratio and biological performance.

Abstract
This study reports the results of 38 total hip arthroplasties (THAs) in 33 patients aged < 50 years, using the JRI Furlong hydroxyapatite ceramic (HAC)-coated femoral component. This represents an update of previous reports of the same cohort at ten and 16 years, which were reported in 2004 and 2009, respectively. We describe the survival, radiological and functional outcomes at a mean follow-up of 21 years (17 to 25). Of the surviving 34 THAs, one underwent femoral revision for peri-prosthetic fracture after 21 years, and one patient (one hip) was lost to follow-up. Using aseptic loosening as the end-point, 12 hips (31.5%) needed acetabular revision but none needed femoral revision, demonstrating 100% survival (95% confidence interval 89 to 100). In young patients with high demands, the Furlong HAC-coated femoral component gives excellent long-term results.

Abstract
We report on 397 consecutive revision total hip replacements in 371 patients with a mean clinical and radiological follow-up of 12.9 years (10 to 17.7). The mean age at surgery was 69 years (37 to 93). A total of 28 patients (8%) underwent further revision, including 16 (4%) femoral components. In all 223 patients (56%, 233 hips) died without further revision and 20 patients (5%, 20 hips) were lost to follow-up. Of the remaining patients, 209 (221 hips) were available for clinical assessment and 194 (205 hips) for radiological review at mean follow-up of 12.9 years (10 to 17.7). The mean Harris Hip Score improved from 58.7 (11 to 92) points to 80.7 (21 to 100) (p < 0.001) and the mean Merle d’Aubigné and Postel hip scores at final follow-up were 4.9 (2 to 6), 4.5 (2 to 6) and 4.3 (2 to 6), respectively for pain, mobility and function. Radiographs showed no lucencies around 186 (90.7%) femoral stems with stable bony ingrowth seen in 199 stems (97%). The survival of the S-ROM femoral stem at 15 years with revision for any reason as the endpoint was 90.5% (95% confidence interval (CI) 85.7 to 93.8) and with revision for aseptic loosening as the endpoint 99.3% (95% CI 97.2 to 99.8). We have shown excellent long-term survivorship and good clinical outcome of a cementless hydroxyapatite proximally-coated modular femoral stem in revision hip surgery.

Abstract
We report a multicentre prospective consecutive study assessing the long-term outcome of the proximally hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated ABG II monobloc femoral component in a series of 1148 hips in 1053 patients with a mean age at surgery of 64.77 years (22 to 80) at a mean follow-up of 10.84 years (10 to 15.25). At latest follow-up, the mean total Harris hip score was 94.7 points (sd; 6.87; 49 to 100), and the mean Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score was 17.6 points (sd 1.12; 7 to 18). The mean total Engh radiological score score was 21.54 (sd 5.77; 3.5 to 27), with 95.81% of 'confirmed ingrowth', according to Engh's classification. With aseptic loosening or pain as endpoints, three AGB II stems (0.26%) failed, giving a 99.7% survival rate (se 0.002; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.994 to 1) at 14 years' follow-up. The survival of patients ≤ 50 years of age (99.0% (se 0.011; 95% CI 0.969 to 1)) did not differ significantly from those of patients aged > 50 years (99.8% (se 0.002; 95% CI 0.994 to 1)). This study confirmed the excellent long-term results currently achieved with the ABG II proximally HA-coated monobloc stem. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2013;95-B:1610-16.

Abstract
A systematic analysis of results available from in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials on the effects of biocompatible calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings is presented. An overview of the most frequently used methods to prepare CaP-based coatings was conducted. Dense, homogeneous, highly adherent and biocompatible CaP or hybrid organic/inorganic CaP coatings with tailored properties can be deposited. It has been demonstrated that CaP coatings have a significant effect on the bone regeneration process. In vitro experiments using different cells (e.g. SaOS-2, human mesenchymal stem cells and osteoblast-like cells) have revealed that CaP coatings enhance cellular adhesion, proliferation and differentiation to promote bone regeneration. However, in vivo, the exact mechanism of osteogenesis in response to CaP coatings is unclear; indeed, there are conflicting reports of the effectiveness of CaP coatings, with results ranging from highly effective to no significant or even negative effects. This review therefore highlights progress in CaP coatings for orthopaedic implants and discusses the future research and use of these devices. Currently, an exciting area of research is in bioactive hybrid composite CaP-based coatings containing both inorganic (CaP coating) and organic (collagen, bone morphogenetic proteins, arginylglycylaspartic acid etc.) components with the aim of promoting tissue ingrowth and vascularization. Further investigations are necessary to reveal the relative influences of implant design, surgical procedure, and coating characteristics (thickness, structure, topography, porosity, wettability etc.) on the long-term clinical effects of hybrid CaP coatings. In addition to commercially available plasma spraying, other effective routes for the fabrication of hybrid CaP coatings for clinical use still need to be determined and current progress is discussed.

Abstract
Four uncemented Symax hip stems were extracted at three weeks and nine, 13 and 32 months, respectively, for reasons other than loosening. The reasons for implant removal were infection in two cases, recurrent dislocation in one and acetabular fracture in one. They were analysed to assess the effect and behaviour of an electrochemically deposited, completely resorbable biomimetic BONIT-hydroxyapatite (HA) coating (proximal part) and a DOTIZE surface treatment (distal part) using qualitative histology, quantitative histomorphometry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Early and direct bone-implant bonding with signs of active remodelling of bone and the HA coating were demonstrated by histology and SEM. No loose BONIT-HA particles or delamination of the coating were observed, and there was no inflammation or fibrous interposition at the interface. Histomorphometry showed bone-implant contact varying between 26.5% at three weeks and 83.5% at 13 months at the HA-coated implant surface. The bone density in the area of investigation was between 24.6% at three weeks and 41.1% at 32 months. The DOTIZE surface treatment of the distal part of the stem completely prevented tissue and bone apposition in all cases, thereby optimising proximal stress transfer. The overall features of this implant, in terms of geometry and surface texture, suggest a mechanically stable design with a highly active biomimetic coating, resulting in rapid and extensive osseo-integration, exclusively in the metaphyseal part of the stem. Early remodelling of the HA coating does not seem to have a detrimental effect on short-term bone-implant coupling. There were no adverse effects identified from either the BONIT-HA coating or the DOTIZE surface treatment.

Abstract
We have evaluated the difference in the migration patterns over two years of two cementless stems in a randomised, controlled trial using radiostereophotogrammetric analysis (RSA). The implants studied were the Furlong HAC stem, which has good long-term results and the Furlong Active stem, which is a modified version of the former designed to minimise stress concentrations between the implant and bone, and thus to improve fixation. A total of 23 Furlong HAC and 20 Furlong Active stems were implanted in 43 patients. RSA examinations were carried out immediately post-operatively and at six, 12 and 24 months post-operatively. The subsidence during the first year in the Furlong HAC stem, was approximately one-third that of the Furlong Active stem, the measured mean subsidence of the femoral head at six months being 0.27 mm (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.03 to 0.51) and 0.99 mm (95% CI 0.38 to 1.60), respectively (p = 0.03). One Active stem continued to subside during the second year. All hips, regardless of the type of stem were clinically successful as judged by the Oxford hip score and a derived pain score without any distinction between the two types of stem. The initial stability of the Furlong Active stem was not as good as the established stem which might compromise osseo-integration to the detriment of long-term success. The changes in the geometry of the stem, to minimise stress have affected the attainment of initial stability.

Abstract
The outcome at ten years of 100 Freeman hip stems (Finsbury Orthopaedics, Leatherhead, United Kingdom) retaining the neck with a proximal hydroxyapatite coating in a series of 52 men (six bilateral) and 40 women (two bilateral), has been described previously. None required revision for aseptic loosening. We have extended the follow-up to 20 years with a minimum of 17 years. The mean age of the patients at total hip replacement was 58.9 years (19 to 84). Six patients were lost to follow-up, but were included up to their last clinical review. A total of 22 patients (22 hips) had died, all from causes unrelated to their surgery. There have been 43 re-operations for failure of the acetabular component. However, in 38 of these the stem was not revised since it remained stable and there was no associated osteolysis. Two of the revisions were for damage to the trunnion after fracture of a modular ceramic head, and in another two, removal of the femoral component was because of the preference of the surgeon. In all cases the femoral component was well fixed, but could be extracted at the time of acetabular revision. In one case both components were revised for deep infection. There has been one case of aseptic loosening of the stem which occurred at 14 years. This stem had migrated distally by 7.6 mm in ten years and 8.4 mm at the time of revision at which stage it was found to be rotationally loose. With hindsight this component had been undersized at implantation. The survivorship for the stem at 17 years with aseptic loosening as the endpoint was 98.6% (95% confidence interval 95.9 to 100) when 62 hips were at risk. All remaining stems had a satisfactory clinical and radiological outcome. The Freeman proximally hydroxyapatite-coated femoral component is therefore a dependable implant and its continued use can be recommended.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Hydroxyapatite (HA) particles have long been suspected to disintegrate from implant surfaces, become entrapped in joint spaces of orthopaedic bearing couples, and start a cascade leading to progressive polyethylene (PE) wear, increased osteolysis, and aseptic loosening. We compared cup revision at 15 years' followup in a randomized group of patients with 26 cementless THA components with titanium (Ti) versus first-generation HA coating. We also assessed radiographic PE wear and osteolysis to the 12-year followup or end point revision at a minimum of 5 years (mean, 10.9 years; range, 5-12.6 years). Two Ti-coated cups (17%) and eight HA-coated cups (57%) were revised at 15 years' followup. Femoral head penetration rate was 0.46 mm/year (standard deviation, 0.26) with the HA-coated cups (n = 12) and 0.38 mm/year (standard deviation, 0.14) with the Ti-coated cups (n = 10); we observed a wide variance of linear wear with the HA-coated cups. We also observed a positive association between high wear rate and revision, and between a high volume of osteolysis and revision. Our findings suggest inferior survival of medium-thickness spray-dried HA-coated cups with individual cases of excessive PE wear and premature cup failure. These findings apply to first-generation modular cups and may not apply to other cup designs and new HA-coating technologies. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
In 2004 we described the ten-year prospective results of 38 total hip replacements using the Furlong hydroxyapatite-ceramic-coated femoral component in 35 patients < 50 years old. We have now reviewed the surviving 35 arthroplasties in 33 patients at a mean of 16 years (10.3 to 19.9). The mean age of the surviving patients at the time of operation was 41.3 years (26.0 to 49.0). Of these, eight have undergone revision of their acetabular component for aseptic loosening. None of the femoral components has had revision for aseptic loosening giving a survival rate of 100% at 16 years (95% confidence interval 89% to 100%). The Furlong hydroxyapatite-ceramic-coated femoral component gives excellent long-term survival in young and active patients.

Abstract
We reviewed 44 consecutive revision hip replacements in 38 patients performed using the cement-in-cement technique. All were performed for acetabular loosening in the presence of a well-fixed femoral component. The mean follow-up was 5.1 years (2 to 10.1). Radiological analysis at final follow-up indicated no loosening of the femoral component, except for one case with a continuous radiolucent line in all zones and peri-prosthetic fracture which required further revision. Peri-operative complications included nine proximal femoral fractures (20.4%) and perforation of the proximal femur in one hip. In five hips wiring or fixation with a braided suture was undertaken but no additional augmentation was required. There was an improvement in the mean Japanese Orthopaedic Association score from 55.5 (28 to 81) pre-operatively to 77.8 (40 to 95) at final follow-up (p < 0.001). Revision using a cement-in-cement technique allows increased exposure for acetabular revision and is effective in the medium term. Further follow-up is required to assess the long-term results in the light of in vitro studies which have questioned the quality of the cement-in-cement bond.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cementless femoral revision has become increasingly popular because the cementless implants provide the potential for long-term biologic implant fixation. The IOTA interlocking femoral stem is a hydroxyapatite-coated stem with the option of interlocking the stem distally. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the short-term results of IOTA interlocking stem. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the results of 18 total hip arthroplasties in 17 patients performed between July 2002 and 2004 using the IOTA interlocking stem. In-patient records were retrieved and in addition to demographic data the indication for revision, the preoperative and postoperative Harris Hip scores, need for allografts were noted. The bone deficiency was classified based on the AAOS classification. Intraoperative complications and problems if any were retrieved from the authors' operative notes. Radiographs at the final follow up were evaluated by the criteria described by Engh et al. (Clin Orthop 257:107-128, 1990) RESULTS Average age at the time of revision was 57 years. Preoperatively five femora showed type I deficiency, type II deficiency was seen in three, type III in nine and type IV deficiency in one femur. In five hips the calcar replacing prosthesis was implanted to manage the proximal calcar defect, in one hip allograft was used to reconstruct the calcar. One patient sustained intraoperative fracture of the shaft of the femur while implanting the trial prosthesis and one patient had a perforation of the posterior cortex of femur while trying to remove the cement. The mean follow up period was 33.5 months (range 27-45 months). The mean preoperative Harris Hip score was 36 (range 23-50), which improved to 77 (range 68-92) at the time of final follow up. None of the stems required revision and at minimum 27 months follow up, bony ingrowth was noted in 83.33% of the stems. CONCLUSION IOTA interlocking stem has shown promising short-term results for femoral revisions. The advantages are initial axial and rotational stability and consistent bony in growth owing to hydroxyapatite coating. Intraoperative fracture is a potential drawback because of the straight nature of the stem. The calcar replacing option of the stem is especially useful in patients with deficient calcar as a substitute for the allograft.

Abstract
We describe a case of symptomatic focal femoral osteolysis around a screw hole distal to the hydroxyapatite-coated portion of a cannulated femoral component in a revision hip replacement. No locking screw had been inserted into this, the most proximal of the three distal holes for locking screws. The presence of polyethylene wear debris in the tissue excised from the lesion suggested that it had passed through the cannulated portion of the stem and out of the proximal unfilled distal locking hole, initiating an osteolytic reaction in an otherwise well-fixed stem. This case highlights an important design characteristic of such cannulated, uncemented femoral components. We recommend that the proximal aperture of these cannulated stems be occluded at implantation.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components were introduced to enhance fixation, but concerns were raised about whether the coating would be maintained over time. We therefore determined the long-term clinical and radiographic results of a proximally hydroxyapatite-coated femoral component and compared the mechanical failure rate to other fixation methods at similar lengths of followup. The study group, culled from a large, multicenter prospective study population, consisted of 146 patients (166 hips) with followup of 15 to 18 years. Average age at time of the index procedure was 51 years, and the most common diagnoses were osteoarthritis (71%) and osteonecrosis (11%). Average Harris hip scores were 42.7 preoperatively and 91.5 at most recent followup. Radiographically, one stem showed stable fibrous fixation, and all other unrevised stems were bony stable. Of 13 stem revisions in the study population, only one stem has been revised for aseptic loosening. Forty-nine percent of hips have an osteolytic lesion in proximal areas of Gruen Zones 1, 7, 8, or 14 only. Both the femoral aseptic revision and mechanical failure rates are 0.6% at 15-year minimum followup. The data demonstrate excellent long-term survivorship of this hydroxyapatite-coated femoral component used in a relatively young patient group.

Abstract
We describe the clinical and radiological results of 120 consecutive revision hip replacements in 107 patients, using the JRI Furlong hydroxyapatite-ceramic-coated femoral component. The mean age of the patients at operation was 71 years (36 to 92) and the mean length of follow-up 8.0 years (5.0 to 12.4). We included patients on whom previous revision hip surgery had taken place. The patients were independently reviewed and scored using the Harris hip score, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) and the Charnley modification of the Merle d’Aubigné and Postel score. Radiographs were assessed by three reviewers for the formation of new bone, osteolysis, osseointegration and radiolucent lines in each Gruen zone. The mean Harris hip score was 85.8 (42 to 100) at the latest post-operative review. The mean WOMAC and Merle d’Aubigné and Postel scores were 34.5 and 14.8, respectively. The mean visual analogue score for pain (possible range 0 to 10) was 1.2 overall, but 0.5 specifically for mid-thigh pain. There were no revisions of the femoral component for aseptic loosening. There were four re-revisions, three for infection and one for recurrent dislocation. Radiological review of all the femoral components, including the four re-revisions showed stable bony ingrowth and no new radiolucent lines in any zone. Using revision or impending revision for aseptic loosening as an end-point, the cumulative survival of the femoral component at ten years was 100% (95% confidence interval 94 to 100). We present excellent medium- to long-term clinical, radiological and survivorship results with the fully hydroxyapatite-ceramic-coated femoral component in revision hip surgery.

Abstract
This study determined the effects of a plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite/tricalcium phosphate (HA/TCP) coating on osseointegration of plasma-sprayed titanium alloy implants in a lapine, distal femoral intramedullary model. The effects of the HA/TCP coating were assessed at 1, 3, and 6 months after implant placement. The HA/TCP coating significantly increased new bone apposition onto the implant surfaces at all time points. The ceramic coating also stimulated intramedullary bone formation at the middle and distal levels of the implants. Fluorescent bone labeling indicated that new bone formation occurred primarily during the first 3 months after implantation, with comparatively little activity detected in the latter stages of the study. There was no associated increase in pullout strength at either 3 or 6 months; however, post-pullout evaluation of the implants indicated that the HA/TCP coating itself was not the primary site of construct failure. Rather, failure was most commonly observed through the periprosthetic osseous struts that bridged the medullary cavity. The demonstrated osteoconductive activity of HA/TCP coating on plasma-sprayed titanium alloy implant surfaces may have considerable clinical relevance to early host-implant interactions, by accelerating the establishment of a stable prosthesis-bone interface.

Abstract
In a one-surgeon study the clinical and radiographic results of 30 cementless bipolar hip prostheses in 24 patients younger than 55 years were evaluated. Eleven noncoated prostheses (Noncoated Group) and 19 hydroxyapatite-coated prostheses (Hydroxyapatite Group) were compared after a mean followup of 10.4 years. The Harris hip score increased from a preoperative average of 41 points to 76 points at final followup (Noncoated Group, 70 points; Hydroxyapatite Group, 80 points). Thigh or groin pain was present in 15 patients (16 hips) (Noncoated Group, 55%; Hydroxyapatite Group, 53%). Radiographically, subsidence was the major problem at the noncoated prostheses (Noncoated Group, 91%; Hydroxyapatite Group, 5%), whereas osteolysis mainly was seen at the hydroxyapatite-coated prostheses (Noncoated Group, 18%; Hydroxyapatite Group, 89%). The obtained aseptic revision rate of 27% (Noncoated Group, 27%; Hydroxyapatite Group, 26%) is too high to use this implant in young patients. The large amounts of polyethylene wear debris generated by the bipolar system play an important role in this limited success. In the initially well-fixed hydroxyapatite-coated prostheses the sealing effect of a hydroxyapatite coating creates high concentrations of polyethylene in the limited joint space, resulting in massive proximal femoral osteolysis. Consequently, a hydroxyapatite coating introduces a new failure mechanism. Therefore, hydroxyapatite does not improve the outcome of a cementless bipolar hemiarthroplasty in the long-term.

Abstract
We prospectively studied 152 hips in 126 patients with a proximally porous and hydroxyapatite coated double tapered straight femoral prosthesis. The follow-up period was 4.2 to 9.6 years. All but two prostheses showed osseo-integration. The mean Harris hip score (HHS) increased from 40 to 92 points and 97% of the patients had no or only mild pain. Limping and the use of walking aids decreased substantially after the operation. The morphology of positive bone remodelling with either endosteal bone formation or periosteal bone formation was correlated with the stem fit in the medullary canal (p=0.0001). Negative bone remodelling features could not be demonstrated. There was no correlation between the clinical parameters and the radiological phenomena. (Hip International 2002; 4: 345-56).
