Popis: | Background Cemented stems are designed to follow 1 of 2 principles of fixation: composite beams or slide taper. Stems in the latter category have a collarless, polished, tapered (CPT) design and subside into the cement mantle, creating hoop stresses. We compared the rate of periprosthetic fracture (PPF) of stem designed with these 2 principles of fixation. In addition, we examined radiographic factors that may predispose to the development of PPF. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent primary THA by a single surgeon using highly polished cemented stems. PPF rates were compared between CPT stems (follow-up, 21 months; standard deviation [SD], 22) and composite beam stems (follow-up, 21.7 months; SD, 26). Demographic data were compared between patients with and without a PPF. Three preoperative radiographic parameters (canal bone ratio [CBR], canal-calcar ratio, and canal flare index), stem alignment, and cement mantle were compared in match-paired patients with and without a PPF (1:34). Results Seven of 1460 THA patients developed a PPF (0.479%); 4 hips of 185 with a CPT stem (2.2%); and 3 of 1275 hips with a composite beam stem (0.23%; P = .0064). Three of the 4 PPFs in the CPT group and none in the composite beam group were classified as Vancouver B2. The CBR in patients with a PPF was 0.50 (SD, 0.07) and 0.43 (SD, 0.07) in the match cohort of hips without PPF (P = .013). Conclusion CPT stems may be associated with a higher risk of PPF that often require reoperation. An increased CBR may be a risk factor for postoperative PPF. |
