Abstract
We assessed 41 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (47 hips) who had had revision hip arthroplasty, at an average follow-up of 7 years 4 months (2 to 19). The clinical results were excellent or satisfactory in 43 hips. Radiologically, 45 stems were secure. Fifteen sockets (36.6%) were radiologically loose. Three hips required rerevision. Socket failure is the predominant problem in rheumatoid patients after cemented revision arthroplasty.Entities:
