“…One valid reason for such complications found in these studies and absent in our study is follow up in these studies which was for years, and we determined short term functional outcome. We have no mortality and morbidity in our study like other similar studies [9,13].…”

Background: Being a synovial joint hip can have a number of end stage diseases like primary osteoarthritis, secondary osteoarthritis, and avascular necrosis of femoral head. Total hip replacement is the ultimate treatment for end stage diseases of hip to improve hip functions and relieve pain. To evaluate functional outcome of artificial hip joint postoperatively, Harris hip score is used.Method: This prospective study was carried out in Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar, Pakistan from January 2018 to January 2022. 96 patient of age group 30 years and above of both gender with total hip arthroplasty for end stage osteoarthritis of hip (both primary and secondary to trauma) and osteonecrosis who fulfilled the inclusion/ exclusion criteria were included in the study. Age, sex, site, operative indication and pre-operative Harris Hip Score were documented. Uncemented total hip replacement was done. Postoperative Harris hip score was documented at 3 months after surgery.Results: Among total 96 patients 58.33% were male and 41.67% where females with age rang 30 to 76 years. Avascular necrosis of hip (44%), primary osteoarthritis (36%), secondary osteoarthritis due to trauma (30%), and sequel of hip infection (20%) were indication of surgery. Preoperative Harris Hip Score ranged from 20 to 50 and it ranged from 70 to 95 at 3 months after surgery. Postoperatively Harris hip score were excellent in 80%, good in 12% while fair in 8% patients. Only 6.25% cases developed complications, 2 (2.08%) skin incision site infections and 4(4.17%) dislocations. Conclusion:Total hip replacement is an excellent function preserving and pain-relieving procedure for end stage diseases of hip joint with less number of complications.

Background: Total hip replacement (THR) surgery is a common and effective procedure to alleviate pain and improve function in patients with hip joint disorders, such as osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to assess the functional outcome after THR surgery. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in department of orthopedics, medical college for women and hospital and other hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, during the period from March 2017 to March 2022. The sample size was 120. Results: In this study, mean age was 65.3 (SD±9.8) years and majority (52.5%) were male. At the 12-month follow-up, PCS scores improved, while MCS scores slightly decreased. Physical function, mental health, and PROM scores of Harris hip score (HHS), Western Ontario and McMaster universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC), and EQ-VAS showed significant improvements. Gait speed exhibited a minor decrease. The complications observed included superficial infection in 6 patients (5.0%), femoral nerve palsy in 9 patients (7.5%), hip dislocation in 7 patients (5.8%) and etc. Overall, 81.67% had an excellent functional outcome, 11.67% had a good outcome, and 6.67% had a fair outcome after surgery. Conclusions: The findings of our study demonstrate significant improvements in functional outcomes and PROMs following THR surgery.

Background: Osteonecrosis is a debilitating disease that may progress to collapse the subchondral bone and the articular cartilage of the joint.Objective: This study aimed to document the clinical and radiographic results of cementless total hip replacement (THA) in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Patients and Methods: This prospective clinical trial study was conducted on eighteen patients diagnosed with steroidinduced osteonecrosis of the femoral head at the Orthopedic Department, Zagazig University Hospitals during the period from August 2020 to the end of January 2021. All patients were subjected to Pre and post-operative clinical evaluation, special radiological assessment was applied. ResultsWe assessed the clinical signs and symptoms using a modified Harris hip score pre and post-operatively. MHHS of 90 points or more was categorized as an excellent result; 80-89 points were good; 70-79 points were fair; less than 70 points were poor results. Conclusion: Advancements in surgical technique and better designs have greatly improved the long-term survival of cementless implants in young patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
