Clinical and radiological outcomes with the Durom™ acetabular cup for large-diameter total hip arthroplasty: 177 implants after a mean of 80months

Abstract: The Durom™ cup eliminates the risk of hip dislocation and produces similar functional outcomes to those seen with metal-on-polyethylene bearings after a mean follow-up of 80 months. Nevertheless, given the difficulty in predicting ARMD and hypersensitivity reactions, the Durom™ cup has been discarded and patients carrying it are monitored closely.

“…Therefore, these results emphasize the potential role of trunnionosis as the main mechanism of failure in THA and not only the MoM bearing by itself. The overall 15-year survivorship of 83% in RHA and 73% in THA observed in the current study was in agreement with the previous series [15,[27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. Indeed, Ng et al and Althuizen et al reported a high failure rate for Durom® MoM THA with a ten year revision rate ranging from 14 to 31% [36,37].…”

“…The current literature demonstrates patients with large diameter acetabular cups for primary THA having decreased dislocation rates and improved functional outcomes. 23 Additionally, Saragaglia et al 24 reported 177 THA with acetabular cups up to 62 mm in patients with an average BMI of 27.6 kg/m 2 with negligent rates of dislocation and improved functional outcomes at a mean 80-month follow-up. However, this study along with other large diameter cup studies 25,26 is based on metal on metal bearing surfaces.…”

“…Although friction torque appears to be associated with an abnormally high infectious complication rate, it is difficult to establish a clear correlation. It has been hypothesized that high concentrations of metal wear particles, metal ions, and corrosion products have molecular effects on the surrounding soft tissues and thus change the local environment [ 9 , 10 ] Paradoxically, it seems that the Co-Cr particles released into dynamic growth media by metal-on-metal THAs inhibit biofilm formation in some germs—making them more vulnerable to clearance by the immune system or antibiotics [ 11 ]. In the present case, we suspect that endoscopic investigation of the digestive tract during the patient's course of chemotherapy caused blood dissemination of the bacteria.…”
