Abstrakt: | Background: The enhanced frictional resistance of modern ultraporous acetabular components can impede complete seating; however, surgeons expect the enhanced ingrowth surface to resolve polar (zone 2) gaps over time via osseointegration. This study characterized zone 2 radiographic osseointegration in 3 acetabular component designs: 2 highly porous ingrowth and one traditional ongrowth. Methods: A consecutive cohort of primary total hip arthroplasties was reviewed which utilized 3 different acetabular cup designs: ongrowth titanium with hydroxyapatite (HA), highly porous titanium with machined radial grooves (MRG), and dual-porous titanium substrate with micropore (MP). Radiographic analysis was performed using accepted measurement criteria with particular attention to radiolucent lines. Results: Seven hundred ninety cases were available for analysis. Initial 1-month radiographs revealed 43.2% of HA, 78.2% of MRG, and 81.0% of MP cups exhibited zone 2 radiolucencies, consistent with incomplete seating. At 1 year, all HA radiolucencies resolved, whereas 46.2% and 34.7% of radiolucencies remained in MRG and MP cups, respectively ( P ≤ .005). At minimum 2 years, a significant proportion of zone 2 radiolucencies remained in 46.0% of MRG compared with 23.9% of MP cups and 3.0% of HA cups ( P ≤ .007). Conclusion: The resolution of zone 2 radiolucencies at 1-year and minimum 2-year follow-up signified osseointegration for nearly all HA and most MP cups. Highly porous titanium cups with machined radial grooves demonstrated persistent zone 2 radiolucencies at 1 year and beyond. Given reports of early loosening with this particular acetabular implant, further follow-up is warranted as this study highlights that not all contemporary highly porous metal acetabular components perform equally.
