Purpose: Short stems use has increased substantially despite variable results reported in the literature. The purpose of this study was to report the rate of complications using a short stem implanted through the direct anterior approach (DAA), and to evaluate mid-term clinical and radiological results focusing on femoral stem fixation.Methods: Between April 2009 and November 2014, 698 elective total hip arthroplasties (THAs) were performed using a fully hydroxyapatite-coated short stem (AMIStem-H®). The mean age was 65.7 years (SD 12.6). Patients were invited for clinical and radiological evaluation, and to complete patient-reported outcomes questionnaires at two and five years after surgery. The mean follow-up was 6.2 years (range 2-9.73 years).Results: During the study period, 59 (8.5%) patients died and 24 (3.4%) were lost to follow-up. There were six (0.9%) dislocations and 12 (1.7%) fractures, seven occurred intra-operatively. Twenty-nine (4.2%) THAs required revision surgery. Eleven THAs were revised for aseptic loosening of the stem at a mean 4.9 years (1.2-7.3 years). Five years after surgery, radiographs of 324 THAs (324/425 eligible = 76.2%) were available. Stem subsidence ≥ 2 mm was present in 42 cases (12.9%), proximal radiolucencies in 101 hips (31.5%), cortical thickening in 52 (16.0%), and a pedestal in 219 (67.6%). An Engh score between - 10 and 0 was associated with lower HHS pain subscore (p = 0.005), a higher risk of stem revision for aseptic loosening (18.8% vs. 2.7%; p = 0.008), and was more frequent in younger patients with ASA score 1.Conclusion: Patients presenting radiological alterations at five years had an increased risk of revision for aseptic stem loosening and also inferior clinical results. Our study warrants further continued scrutiny of mid- and long-term survivorship of the AMIStem-H®, with radiological results at five years indicating suboptimal fixation of the stem in younger and active patients.
