Revision Hip Arthroplasty Performed by Fellowship-Trained Versus Non-Fellowship-Trained Surgeons: A Comparison of Perioperative Management and Complications.

Background: Successful revision hip arthroplasty (rTHA) requires major resource allocation and a surgical team adept at managing these complex cases. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of rTHA performed by fellowship-trained and non-fellowship-trained surgeons.

Methods: A national administrative database was utilized to identify 5,880 patients who underwent aseptic rTHA and 1,622 patients who underwent head-liner exchange for infection by fellowship-trained and non-fellowship-trained surgeons from 2010 to 2020 with a 5-year follow-up.
