Outcome of revision hip arthroplasty in patients younger than 55 years: an analysis of 1037 revisions in the Dutch Arthroplasty Register

摘要

Background and purpose — The increasing use of hip arthroplasties in young patients will inevitably lead to more revision procedures at younger ages, especially as the outcome of their primary procedures is inferior compared with older patients. However, data on the outcome of revision hip arthroplasty in young patients are limited. We determined the failure rates of revised hip prostheses performed in patients under 55 years using Dutch Arthroplasty Register (LROI) data.
