Purpose: To assess follow up results of more than five years of total hip arthroplasty using the harris-Galante Ⅱ acetabular cup.
Materials and Methods: We performed a clinical and radiographic assessment of 126 cases of total hip arthroplasty done with the second-generation Harris-Galante cup between 1990 and 1996.
Results: The average follow up period was 7.1 years. The average harris hip score improved from 49.5 points preoperatively to 89.7 points at the latest follow up. Radiographic analysis revealed excellent osteointegration into the cup in 123 hips(97.6%), while 3 cups were unstable. Periacetabular osteolysis was noticed in 19 cases(15.1%), Radiolucene lines developed in 11 cases(8.7%). Fifteen cups(11.9%) were revied. The average linear polyethylene wear rate was 0.23 ㎜/year.
Conclusion: The midterm results of using the second-generation Harris-Galante acetabular cup show excellent clinical and radiological results although further follow up is required due to complications such as significant wear of the liner as well as occurrence of osteolysis.
