Abstract
We reviewed the results of 10 patients (10 hips) after revision total hip arthroplasty with use of cement for 6 aseptic loosenings, 2 septic loosenings, 1 femoral shaft fracture, and 1 component fracture. Three patients were men and 7 women. Their mean age was 73 years (range 56 to 86). The mean duration from primary operation to revision was 64 months (range 13 to 180). The mean duration of follow-up was 41 months (range 8 to 84). The mean J. O. A. score significantly improved from 41.9 points to 70.7 points at the time of the latest follow-up examination.
