We previously reported five-to-seven-year results of total hip arthroplasty (THA) with the use of delta ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearing. We conducted an extension study with a CT scan at a minimum of 10 years after surgery.From March 2009 to March 2011, 273 patients (310 hips) received cementless THA with delta CoC bearing, porous-coated cup and hydroxyapatite-coated stem. In this extended study, 252 patients (144 men and 108 women) (288 hips) with a mean age of 49.7 years (16-83) at surgery were followed for a mean of 10.4 years (10-12) with CT scans in 133 hips (46.2%, 133/288). Clinical and radiographic evaluations were made at each follow-up and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed with revision and reoperation as endpoints.There were no more ceramic fractures. Compared to mid-term results, the incidence of squeaking and RLLs increased to 3.1% (9/288) and 19.4% (56/288), respectively. The RLL progressed to focal osteolysis in 3 hips (5.4%, 3/56). No hip had detectable wear or prosthetic loosening. Two hips were reoperated due to periprosthetic joint infection and periprosthetic femoral fracture in each. The survivorship decreased to 98.3% (96.7-99.9%) at 12 years.During the extended follow-up, no additional ceramic fracture occurred, and the incidence of squeak increased by 0.7%. The long-term survivorship of Delta CoC THA was encouraging. However, focal osteolysis occurred around the hydroxyapatite-coated stem in 1% (3/288).II (Prospective cohort study). |
