OBJECTIVE To our knowledge, no study has compared the long-term results of cemented and hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) secondary to congenital hip disease (CHD). This is a demanding procedure that may require special techniques and implants. Our aim was to compare the long-term outcome of cemented low-friction arthroplasty (LFA) and hybrid THA performed by one surgeon. METHODS Between January 1989 and December 1997, 58 hips (44 patients; one man, 43 woman; mean age 56.6 years (25 to 77)) with OA secondary to CHD were treated with a cemented Charnley LFA (group A), and 55 hips (39 patients; two men, 37 women; mean age 49.1 years (27 to 70)) were treated with a hybrid THA (group B), by the senior author (GH). The clinical outcome and survivorship were compared. RESULTS At all timepoints, group A hips had slightly better survivorship than those in group B without a statistically significant difference, except for the 24-year survival of acetabular components with revision for aseptic loosening as the endpoint, which was slightly worse. The survivorship was only significantly better in group A compared with group B when considering reoperation for any indication as the endpoint, 15 years postoperatively (74% vs 52%, p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS We concluded that there was not a substantial difference at almost any time in the outcome of cemented Charnley LFAs compared with hybrid THAs when treating patients with OA of the hip secondary to CHD. We believe, however, that after improvements in the design of components used in hybrid THA, this could be the method of choice, as it is technically easier with a shorter operating time.

D001843 Bone Cements Adhesives used to fix prosthetic devices to bones and to cement bone to bone in difficult fractures. Synthetic resins are commonly used as cements. A mixture of monocalcium phosphate, monohydrate, alpha-tricalcium phosphate, and calcium carbonate with a sodium phosphate solution is also a useful bone paste.

D002484 Cementation The joining of objects by means of a cement (e.g., in fracture fixation, such as in hip arthroplasty for joining of the acetabular component to the femoral component). In dentistry, it is used for the process of attaching parts of a tooth or restorative material to a natural tooth or for the attaching of orthodontic bands to teeth by means of an adhesive.

D006618 Hip Dislocation, Congenital Congenital dislocation of the hip generally includes subluxation of the femoral head, acetabular dysplasia, and complete dislocation of the femoral head from the true acetabulum. This condition occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 live births and is more common in females than in males.
