From 1969 through 1982, 305 hips in 290 patients had total hip arthroplasty for failed femoral intertrochanteric osteotomy. Of these, we reviewed 215 hips (70.5%) with a minimum follow-up of five years. The results were good or excellent in 79%, but there were technical problems at operation in 23% and a total perioperative complication rate of 11.8%. Late complications occurred in 13.1% including seven late infections (3.2%). At a mean follow-up of ten years, 39 hips had been revised (18.1%), there was probable loosening in 19.5% of stems and 12.6% of cups and possible loosening in 11.4% of stems and 7.2% of cups. The cumulative probability of failure at ten years was 20.6%. We recommend that intertrochanteric osteotomy be advised, planned and executed bearing in mind the possible need for a subsequent total hip arthroplasty, and that screws and plates should be routinely removed soon after union of the osteotomy. |
