ABSTRACT
Stem fixation is difficult to achieve in severe proximal bone loss in revision hip surgery. In this study, we sought to present the results of distally-locked stem with screws (HUCKESTEP HIP stem) in 21 revision hips with mean follow-up period of 15 years. The preoperative mean Japanese Orthopaedic Association hip score had improved from 54 to 75 points. Further revisions were required for 2 stems, in one because of infection and the other because of screws fracture and subsidence. With removal of the stem for any reason as an end-point, the cumulative survival at 15 years was 90.4%. While this study had small number, the use of this interlocking stem for revision hips with extensive proximal bone defects provided satisfactory 15-year clinical and radiographic results.
