Our hypothesis was that the metaphyseal defect augmentation (Impaction Bone Grafting) improves the stem survival. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the aggregated and anonymized data of 243 femoral stem revisions. 68 patients with 70 implants (28.8%) received an allograft augmentation for metaphyseal defects; 165 patients with 173 implants (71.2%) did not, and served as controls. The mean follow-up was 4.4 +/- 1.8 years (range, 2.1-9.6 years). There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) between the study and control group regarding age, body mass index (BMI), femoral defects (types I-III as described by Paprosky), and preoperative Harris Hip Score (HHS). Postoperative clinical function was evaluated using the HHS. Postoperative radiologic examination evaluated implant stability, axial implant migration, signs of implant loosening, periprosthetic radiolucencies, as well as bone regeneration and resorption. Results: There were comparable rates of intraoperative and postoperative complications in the study and control groups (p > 0.05). Clinical function, expressed as the increase in the postoperative HHS over the preoperative score, showed significantly greater improvement in the group with Impaction Bone Grafting (35.6 +/- 14.3 vs. 30.8 +/- 15.8; p <= 0.05). The study group showed better outcome especially for larger defects (types II C and III as described by Paprosky) and stem diameters >= 17 mm. The two groups did not show significant differences in the rate of aseptic loosening (1.4% vs. 2.9%) and the rate of revisions (8.6% vs. 11%). The Kaplan-Meier survival for the MRP-TITAN stem in both groups together was 93.8% after 8.8 years. [Study group 95.7% after 8.54 years; control group 93.1% after 8.7 years]. Radiologic evaluation showed no significant change in axial implant migration (4.3% vs. 9.3%; p = 0.19) but a significant reduction in proximal stress shielding (5.7% vs. 17.9%; p < 0.05) in the study group. Periprosthetic radiolucencies were detected in 5.7% of the study group and in 9.8% of the control group (p = 0.30). Radiolucencies in the proximal zones 1 and 7 according to Gruen occurred significantly more often in the control group without allograft augmentation (p = 0.05). Conclusion: We present the largest analysis of the impaction grafting technique in combination with cementless distal diaphyseal stem fixation published so far. Our data provides initial evidence of improved bone regeneration after graft augmentation of metaphyseal bone defects. The data suggests that proximal metaphyseal graft augmentation is beneficial for large metaphyseal bone defects (Paprosky types IIC and III) and stem diameters of 17 mm and above. Due to the limitations of a retrospective and descriptive study the level of evidence remains low and prospective trials should be conducted.

In einer retrospektiven Analyse wurde eine Implantat-Komponente des Medizinprodukteherstellers Merete Medical (Berlin) untersucht. Ziel der Untersuchung war es, eine Aussage über die Stabilität des Implantats und den klinischen Versorgungserfolg bei dessen Verwendung treffen zu können. Es wurden Daten von insgesamt 72 Patienten erhoben. Es erfolgte eine klinische und radiologische Nachuntersuchung. Die Daten wurden einer deskriptiven und explorativen Analyse unterzogen, eine Überlebenszeitanalyse wurde durchgeführt. Das Implantat zeigte mechanische Stabilität in einem mittelfristigen Zeitraum. Der Versorgungserfolg (gemessen am Harris Hip Score) war durchschnittlich bis gut. Es zeigten sich Zusammenhänge zwischen dem präoperativen Zustand der Patienten und dem Versorgungerfolg. N2 - Revision hip arthroplasty remains a challenging task, especially when it comes to a partial exchange of components with a well-fixed stem. A retrospective analysis was performed to investigate an implant component of Merete Medical (Berlin). The aim of the study was to determine the mechanical stability and quality of care by use of the implant. Data of 72 patients were collected by conducting clinical and radiological follow-up examinations. The collected data were used for an extensive analysis. The implant showed mechanical stability during a middle-term period. The quality of care was good to average (measured by Harris Hip Score). A relation between the preoperative condition and the quality of care was found.

Das mittlere follow-up betrug 2,1 Jahre (1,1-3,8 Jahre).Das Durchschnittsalter der Patienten betrug 69,4 Jahre. Der mittlere HHS verbesserte sich von 37,8 % prä-operativ auf 77,3 % post-operativ. 64% der mit der MRP-Prothese versorgten Patienten waren zum Zeitpunkt der letzten Kontrolle völlig schmerzfrei. 84.3% der Patienten waren mit dem Revisionseingriff sehr zufrieden. Es zeigte sich, dass dieses Prothesensystem selbst bei Patienten mit schwerwiegenden Defekten im Bereich des proximalen Femur ein gutes Behandlungskonzept darstellt. Es konnte nach dem Revisionseingriff kein signifikanter Unterschied im HHS im Vergleich der Gruppen mit unterschiedlichen Knochendefekten am Femur festgestellt werden. Mechanische Komplikationen die auf den modularen Aufbau der Prothese zurückzuführen wären, waren nicht nachweisbar N2 - We present 51 cases using the MRP hip revision prothesis that were controlled both clinicaly and radiological in the years from january 1998 to mars 2000. Medium follow up was 2,1 years (1,1-3,8 years) Average age was 69.4 years. The average Harris hip score improved from 37,8% preoperatively to 77,3% postoperatively.64% of patients who underwent revision surgery with the MRP-prothesis had no pain at all at the time of the last examination. 84.3% were very pleased with their operation result. It was shown that this system could be used even in patients with severe bone defects in the proximal femur. After the revision no significant difference concerning different groups with different bone defects could be shown in means of the Harris Hip Score Mechanical problems due to modular construction of the prothesis could not be seen in this study.
