A prospective study of the migration of two acetabular components

Abstract: Fifty-nine PCA cups and 61 hydroxyapatite-coated RM cups were included in a prospective randomised study with a mean follow up of 5.2 years. Clinical evaluation revealed better results with the RM cup. Radiological criteria of loosening could be applied only with considerable restrictions as different parameters were assessed: progressively loosened beads in PCA cups and faded contour in RM cups. Migration was measured by a computer assisted method (EBRA). PCA cups showed significantly more longitudinal migrat… Show more

“…Comparatively high rates of migration have been reported for uncemented femoral components of press-fit design (Wykman, Selvik and Goldie 1988;Nistor et al 1991;Kärrholm and Snorrason 1993;Nistor, Lundberg and Ackerholm 1994) and types of acetabular screw ring (Snorrason and Kärrholm 1990) which are known to have high revision rates at longer follow-up (Tallroth et al 1993;Jensen, Christensen and Hørlyck 1994;Bruijn et al 1995;Malchau et al 1995;Savilahti et al 1995;Sweetnam et al 1995). The EBRA method of assessing migration has given similar results for migration of the PCA cup (Krismer et al 1994).…”

“…This should be compared with implant motion of 0.15 to 0.2 mm, which has been claimed to be the maximum compatible with bony ingrowth and stable long-term fixation. Several special radiological methods can detect smaller movement or mean changes in large series (Jones et al 1988(Jones et al , 1989Braud and Freeman 1990;Hardinge et al 1991;Ilchmann et al 1992;Carlsson et al 1993;Krismer et al 1994), but some are limited to measurements of the acetabular component, can measure only in one plane, and lack adequate documentation of their precision.…”

“…Radiolucency is, therefore, not a reliable indicator for cup loosening [3,16]. In contrast, progressive cup migration is a predictive indicator for the later occurrence of loosening [5,7,9].…”

“…Progressive cup migration is a predictive indicator for later aseptic loosening [10,12,14]. The cup used in this study is a metal-backed, porous-coated, hemispherical, press-fit acetabular component [2,3,8,17,18,20].…”
