Introduction: Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is an alternative to conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) with potential advantages of preserving femoral bone stock and the ability to participate in higher impact activities. This study compares outcomes, satisfaction and preference in patients who underwent HRA in 1 hip and THA on the contralateral side. Methods: 62 Patients with an HRA in 1 hip and a contralateral THA were retrospectively identified at 3 centres, consisting of 38 males and 24 females with 53 patients (85.5%) undergoing HRA first. A survey regarding satisfaction and preference for each procedure and outcome scores were obtained. Results: Patients were younger (51.5 vs. 56.6 years, p = 0.002) and had longer follow-up on the HRA hip (11.0 vs. 6.0 years, p < 0.001). HRA was associated with larger increase in Harris Hip Score from preoperative to final follow-up (35.8 vs. 30.6, p = 0.035). 18 Patients (29.0%) preferred HRA, 19 (30.6%) preferred THA and 25 (40.3%) had no preference ( p = 0.844). When asked what they would choose if they could only have 1 surgery again, 41 (66.1%, p < 0.001) picked HRA. Overall satisfaction ( p = 0.504), willingness to live with their HRA versus THA for the rest of their life ( p = 0.295) and recommendation to others ( p = 0.097) were similar. Conclusions: Although HRA is associated with risks related to metal-on-metal bearings, it showed greater increase in patient-reported outcomes and a small subjective preference amongst patients who have undergone both conventional and resurfacing arthroplasty.

Abstract Background The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess clinical outcomes following failed metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty (MoM-HRA) revised using ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty (CoC-THA) via the direct anterior approach (DAA).Methods Data involving 112 patients (112 hips) with failed primary MoM-HRA that was revised using CoC-THA via the DAA during 2006 - 2018 were retrospectively analysed. The mean age was 54.6 years (45–63 years). Frequent surgical indications for conversion were aseptic loosening and femoral neck fracture. The primary endpoint was the Postel-Merle d’Aubigne functional score (PMA). Secondary endpoints were the major orthopaedic complication rate and serum metal ion levels (chromium and cobalt).Results The mean follow-up time was 10 years (range, 4 - 13 years). The mean PMA improved from 9 (4-14) to 16 (13-18) (p = 0.001). Six patients had undergone a re-revision intervention. Fourteen incidents of aseptic loosening and four periprosthetic fractures were observed. A consistent decline in mean serum metal ion levels was detected [chromium decreased from 36.6 μg/L (12.5-76.5 μg/L) prior to conversion to 2.6 μg/L (0.1-13.5 μg/L) at final follow-up (p = 0.001), cobalt decreased from 37.5 μg/L (6.7-93.2 μg/L) to 2.2 μg/L (1.2-18.4 μg/L) (p =0.003)].Conclusion Failed primary MoM-HRA converted to CoC-THA using the DAA yielded acceptable clinical outcomes.
