Abstract
PURPOSE: Short-stem implants provide a bone-preserving alternative in total hip arthroplasty. However, some evidence exists that the smaller implant-bone contact surface may compromise primary stability and impair osseo-integration. The purpose of this study was to analyse the migration characteristics of the Nanos® short stem over two years by means of model-based roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis (MBRSA). METHODS: Eighteen patients aged 53.6 ± 7.2 years were included. After being treated with a Nanos implant, 14 patients were followed-up radiologically at three, six, 12 and 24 months by means of MBRSA. Early implant migration was calculated. Clinical data have been assessed in addition. RESULTS: Highest translational migration was observed with a mean value of -0.22 ± 0.39 mm along the proximo-distal axis after three months and highest rotational migration with 0.8 ± 3.2° also around the y-axis after two years. The resulting total migration was 0.46 ± 0.31 mm, with the largest proportion occurring within three months after surgery (0.40 ± 0.34 mm). CONCLUSION: The Nanos short-stem hip implant shows only a slight initial migration within three months after implantation, followed by secondary stabilisation. These results suggest both good primary stability and osseo-integration, suggesting a low risk of aseptic loosening.
