Revision XXXX with femoral impaction bone grafting.

@entity1 @entity281 @entity572 @entity158
PURPOSE: To report the radiological and clinical results of revision @entity572 ( @entity572 ) with femoral impaction bone grafting (IBG). METHODS: 4 @entity1 and 9 @entity1 (15 hips) aged 38 to 84 years underwent revision @entity572 with femoral IBG using Elite plus stems for aseptic loosening or @entity281 . RESULTS: The mean follow-up duration was 7.7 years. The Harris hip score improved from 61.7 to 83.7. There was no @entity158 in 11 hips and slight @entity158 in 4. The mean subsidence was 5.7 mm. The mean change of alignment was 1.2 degrees. There was no radiological evidence of stem loosening. One stem was revised due to a peri-prosthetic fracture. Cortical healing was noted in 11 hips, and trabecular incorporation in 10. CONCLUSION: Although intra- and post-operative complications were not uncommon, femoral IBG is a safe procedure in carefully selected @entity1 and offers good medium-term results.
