Abstract

In this paper, we evaluated the long-term results of uncemented total hip arthroplasties using tapered fully porous-coated cobalt-chrome stems (Autophor 900S). The average follow-up was 206 months in 127 hips (113 patients). The articulations of the joints were ceramic-on-polyethylene in 43 hips and ceramic-on-ceramic in 84. The survival rate of the stems at 17 years was 94.5%. A stable stem with bony ingrowth was identified in all 120 hips, excluding femoral revision cases (seven hips). The causes of the seven femoral revisions were aseptic loosening in four, infection in two, and stem fracture in one. No surgical intervention was performed for osteolysis or stress shielding. The Autophor 900S tapered fully porous-coated cobalt-chrome femoral stem revealed encouraging radiographic long-term stability.
