Trabecular metal acetabular components in primary total hip arthroplasty: Higher risk for revision compared with other uncemented cup designs in a ­collaborative register study including 93,709 hips

Trabecular metal acetabular components in primary total hip arthroplasty: Higher risk for revision compared with other uncemented cup designs in a ­collaborative register study including 93,709 hips

Background and purpose — Trabecular metal (TM) cups have demonstrated favorable results in acetabular revision and their use in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasing. Some evidence show that TM cups might decrease periprosthetic infection (PPI) incidence. We compared the survivorship of...
