ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC) is a described complication following metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) total hip arthroplasty (THA). The literature regarding outcomes following revision for MACC suggests that complication rates are high. The purpose of this investigation is to add to this literature with the largest reported series to date.

METHODS:

This is a retrospective cohort study of 552 consecutive patients who underwent 621 MoP primary THAs. We identified patients who subsequently underwent revision THA for a diagnosis of MACC. All patients were implanted with the same implant combination (Accolade I stem/cobalt-chromium low friction ion treatment femoral head). Patient demographic, surgical, and laboratory data were collected. Follow-up was calculated from the revision surgery and Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Joint Replacement and hip subjective values (HSV) were examined at final follow-up. Descriptive statistics were performed.

RESULTS:

The revision rate for MACC was 11.6% and mean time to revision was 6.6 (±2.4) years. Revised patients (n = 69) had a mean preoperative serum cobalt-chromium ratio of 3.5 (±2.4). There were 8 cases of gross trunnion failure. At mean 3.2 (±1.9) years following revision, the overall major complication rate was 11.6% with a 5.8% reoperation rate. At final follow-up, mean Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Joint Replacement scores were 83.2 (±15.6) and mean hip subjective value was 77.6 (±17.4). Revision resulted in significant increases in both parameters (P < .001).

CONCLUSION:

The incidence of MACC in MoP THA is likely higher than previously reported, particularly for certain implant combinations. Revision surgery for MACC can achieve good outcomes but a high clinical suspicion with early detection and revision is likely key to success.
