We compared the clinical and radiographic outcome of 15 hips converted to total hip arthroplasty after failed transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (THA after TRO) for avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) with that of a matched control group of 16 hips with primary THA for ANFH. The operating time in THA after TRO was significantly longer than that in primary THA. Perioperative blood loss in THA after TRO was significantly more than that in primary THA. Postoperative complications were observed in 4 hips of THA after TRO. The Harris Hip Score, the stability of implants, and survival rates did not significantly differ in both groups. We conclude that TRO did not influence the outcome of secondary THA at short- and middle-term follow-up.

Background: In total hip arthroplasty (THA) after failed transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), deformity of the proximal femur has been reported to affect stem placement. The aims of this study were to evaluate the morphological changes in the proximal femur, muscle atrophy, and soft tissue thickening in THA after TRO and the clinical outcomes.

Methods: The TRO group included 17 patients (18 hips) who underwent THA after failed TRO.

Purpose: This study retrospectively evaluated long-term clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) who underwent transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO), curved varus osteotomy (CVO), and total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the 109 hips in 96 patients (46 men, 50 women) who underwent CVO, TRO, or THA for ONFH treatment. The mean follow-up period for the TRO, CVO, and THA groups was 14.

Background: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a progressive disease, and transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) is a promising option to treat hip preservation. Compared with outcomes of non-Asian patients, those of Asian patients are different. Once ONFH has progressed to the stage of collapse, total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an unavoidable surgical procedure.

Background: Several studies have reported regarding total hip arthroplasty (THA) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head after failed transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO). However, to our knowledge, no formal systematic review and meta-analysis have been published yet summarizing the clinical results of a THA after failed TRO. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the THA outcomes after failed TRO.

Background: The objective of the present study was to investigate clinical, quality of life, and radiographic outcomes of patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) after transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).

Methods: We performed a case-control study. The participants were 29 patients (34 hips) who underwent THA after TRO (TRO group).
