No Difference in Revision Rates up to 10 years Following Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients Who Had Prior Bariatric Surgery When Compared to Patients Who Had Class III Obesity: A Propensity Matched Analysis.

Background: There is no clear research showcasing bariatric surgery's (BS's) impact on long-term surgical complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Therefore, this study compared the 10-year cumulative incidence and risk of revision following THA in patients who underwent BS when compared to the general population and class III obesity patients who did not undergo BS.

Methods: Patients who underwent elective THA from 2010 to 2021 were identified using an all-payer claims database.
