  • TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT IN PATIENTS WITH STEROID INDUCED FEMORAL HEAD NECROSIS

    In order to evaluate the long-term effect of total hip replacement (THR) in patients with steroid-induced femoral head necrosis, 40 cases of 50 hips received THR patients were followed up for an average of 8.5 years after operation. Evaluation was carried act according to Harris score system. In these cases, average score was seventy-five points. Revision rate among them was 2% after four years and 18% after five to eight and a half years, with as overall rate of 20%. It was found that the main reason for revision was looseness of the prosthesis. In this follow-up, it showed that besides foreigen body reaction, abnormal osseous remodelling was the main factor in long-term failure of this arthroplasty. It was also proved that it was a good selection to perform cemented total hip replacement in younger patients, which could improve living quality.
