The risk of revision after total hip arthroplasty in young patients depends on surgical approach femoral head size and bearing type; an analysis of 19682 operations in the Dutch arthroplasty register

摘要

BackgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is used increasingly in younger patients. There is little knowledge about the effect of THA characteristics on risk of revision, especially in young patients. Therefore, we studied the influence of both patient-related and surgical factors on the risk of revision using data from the Dutch Arthroplasty Registry (LROI).
