Popis: Introduction The Exeter V40 cemented femoral stem was first introduced in 2000. The largest single-centre analysis of this implant to date was published in 2018, with excellent results at a minimum of 10-years for the first 540 cases performed at the designer centre in the Exeter NHS Trust. The aim of this current study is to report long term outcomes and survivorship for the Exeter V40 stem in a non-designer centre. Method All patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty using the Exeter V40 femoral stem between January 1st 2005 and January 31st 2010 were eligible for inclusion. Outcome measures included data on all components in situ beyond 10 years, death occurring within 10 years with components in situ and all-cause revision surgery. Results A total of 829 stems were included in the data set. Of these, 808 (97.5%) had no further surgery within the follow-up period; 648 stems (78.1%) were in situ beyond 10 years, and 165 (19.9%) were in situ at death before 10 years. The mean preoperative WOMAC score was 61±15.9 with a mean postoperative score of 20.4±19.3. Conclusions The Exeter V40 cemented femoral stem demonstrates excellent functional outcomes and survival when used in a high-volume non-designer centre.
