About this trial

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to measure the periprosthetic bone mineral density changes around a 3D-printed highly-porous titanium acetabular cup used in primary total hip arthroplasty compared to a standard hydroxyapatite/titanium plasma-sprayed acetabular cup up to 2-year follow-up.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

BMD - ROI 1

Periprosthetic BMD (bone mineral density) measured by DEXA in ROI (region of interest) 1 (above the acetabular cup)

Time frame
Preoperative, 1 week postoperatively, 3-month, 6-month,12-month, and 24-month follow-up

Secondary outcomes

1

BMD - ROI 2,3,4

Periprosthetic BMD (bone mineral density) measured by DEXA in ROI (region of interest) 2, 3 and 4 (behind and below the acetabular cup)

Time frame
Preoperative, 1 week postoperatively, 3-month, 6-month,12-month, and 24-month follow-up
2

Harris hip score

Clinical score for hips undergoing total hip arthroplasty. The Harris hip score ranges from 0 to 100, where 100 indicates the best outcome possible for the patient.

Time frame
Preoperative,12-month, and 24-month follow-up
3

Moore's osseointegration signs

Five radiographic signs around the acetabular cup revealing the stability and osseointegration status of cementless component: (1) absence of radiolucent lines; (2) presence of a superolateral buttress; (3) medial stress-shielding; (4) radial trabeculae; and (5) an inferomedial buttress. The presence of 3 to 5 signs visible on anterior-posterior radiograph of the hip indicates 97% probability of a well osseointegrated cup. The presence of 1 or no signs indicates 83% probability of unstable, not osseointegrated cup.

Time frame
12-month and 24-month follow-up
