ABSTRACT
We reviewed 185 consecutive Müller total hip arthoplasties ten to 14 years after operation. Of the 32 patients with 42 arthroplasties who had died within the ten-year period, three had had revisions and five had died of causes related to the operation, including two late infections. Sixty-five hips in 56 living patients were available for clinical and roentgenographic evaluation. An additional 30 hips had been revised for various reasons. When the roentgenographically loose components were combined with the revised ones, the overall incidence of aseptic loosening was 40% for the femoral component and 12.6% for the acetabular component. As previously reported, the combined incidence of loose and revised components at 6 1/2 years was 27.7% for the femoral component and 3.2% for the acetabular component. Therefore, in the intervening five years, the rate of femoral loosening remained about the same, while the rate of acetabular loosening increased. There was a positive correlation between the incidence of loosening of the femoral component and male sex, deficient cementing, and varus position. There was no significant wear of the acetabular component.
