Abstrakt: Introduction: Acetabular components utilising novel ultraporous metal matrices have been recently introduced into clinical practice with improved interference fit, decreased stress shielding, and hope for more reliable osseointegration. 1 such example is the Dynasty Biofoam cup, which has been in clinical use for over a decade but has few reports documenting its clinical and radiographic performance. Methods: A single-centre retrospective study was performed evaluating 96 Dynasty Biofoam acetabular components implanted between March 2010 and August 2014 with minimum 2-year radiographic follow-up. Patients that received components for revision surgery or that had early complications postoperatively (femur fracture, prosthetic infection) were excluded. Biofoam patients were compared to 96 patients that received the Trident PSL acetabular component and were matched for age, gender, and BMI. Patient reported outcomes, component position and radiographic features of cup loosening, including radiolucent lines and sclerosis were compared among groups. Results: Patient-reported outcomes at 2 years were similar among groups. Cup anteversion was similar but inclination was significantly greater in the Biofoam group (p = 0.006). A significantly greater number of Biofoam components exhibited 2-zone (27.2%) and 3-zone (12.0%) radiolucencies compared to 0% of the Trident shells (p < 0.05). 2 Biofoam cups were revised for aseptic loosening compared to no Trident cups (p = 0.49). Discussion: Despite adequate implant survivorship, over a quarter of Biofoam cups had 2 or more radiolucent zones in early follow-up. Longer follow-up is needed to determine if the aseptic revision rate for this cup will increase. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
