Over ten-year follow-up results of a prospective and consecutive series of primary total hip arthroplasty with an original cementless total hip prosthesis.

Purpose: High survival rates up to ten  years have been reported for non-cemented hip replacements. Publications beyond ten years have more diverse conclusions. To study the long-term survival of uncemented total hip replacement (THR), we examined a series of 125 THR, all with a minimum follow-up of ten  years.

Ten-year results of ALIZE acetabular cup with hydroxyapatite coating and AURA hydroxyapatite-coated stem in total hip arthroplasty.

One hundred seven total hip arthroplasties were done between 1991 and 1992 with ALIZE acetabular cup with hydroxyapatite coating (Biomet France, Valence, France) and AURA hydroxyapatite-coated stem (Biomet France) in 107 patients. The articulation was ceramic on polyethylene for 102 patients and metal on polyethylene for the remaining 5 patients. The mean follow-up of the series was 8.
