Objective: To study the outcome of Austin Moore Hemireplacement Arthroplasty in terms of Harris Hip Score and Mobility and Aid Score in fracture neck of femur in elderly.Design: A prospective randomized study carried out between September 2011 to August 2012 AD.Methods: We performed 30 Austin Moore hemiarthroplasties in patients aged 65 and above that sustained a displaced femoral neck fracture and evaluated the outcome in terms of Harris Hip Score and Mobility and Aid Score.Results: Mean HHS at 2 week was 63.93 which increased to 73.83, 80.53 and 86.48 at 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 6 months respectively with overall excellent to good result of 60%. The mean MASM at 6 months was 4.0 whereas the pre-injury MASM was 4.53.Conclusion: Hemiarthroplasty with Austin Moore Prosthesis is safe and effective method of treatment for displaced fracture neck of femur in elderly. There was early post-operative full weight bearing mobilization with reduction in major complications. The operative duration, post-operative complicationsare comparable to other similar studies done elsewhere. The end functional results also depend on the associated comorbidities and optimum post op rehabilitation.Journal of Manmohan Memorial Institute of Health SciencesVol. 3, No. 1, 2017, page: 6-15

Introduction: Intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur form a major share of fractures in the 77 elderly. Hip replacement arthroplasty (partial or total) is emerging as a most viable treatment option, and in that, hemiarthroplasty with the Austin Moore Prosthesis is among the most commonly employed. In our study, we have made an attempt to assess the functional status at long term follow up after hemiarthroplasty with the AMP, used in the treatment of fracture neck of femur in the elderly population, and to substantiate the use of the prosthesis in modern day orthopaedic practice. Materials and : A retrospective study was carried out in patients above the age of 60 years, who had been diagnosed with non-pathological fracture neck of femur, treated operatively with hemiarthroplasty using the Austin Moore prosthesis in a tertiary care centre. A minimum follow up period of two years was considered. All the patients were evaluated clinically, and wherever possible, radiologically. Functional outcome was assessed based on the Harris Hip scoring system, and the results were analysed. Radiologically, an attempt was made to assess, among others, the amount of protrusio acetabuli at follow up, and femoral offset changes following hemiarthroplasty with the AMP. Results: In our study, we observed a positive functional outcome (excellent or good) in 9(45%) patients, with fair result in 6(30%) and poor in 5(25%). However, when pain alone was taken as criteria for assessment, upto 14(75%) patients had none to slight pain at follow up, and only 1(5%) patient had marked pain. Walking distance was significantly reduced in 6(30%) patients, who were either confined indoors or bedridden, but in only 1(5%) of them, the cause for the decreased ambulatory status was implant or procedure related (pain). Among the complications, 1 patient had a post-operative periprosthetic fracture that healed subsequently, 2 patients had marked osteolysis around the stem of the prosthesis, and only 1 patient had a radiological evidence of protrusio acetabuli. Discussion: Hemiarthroplasty with Austin Moore Prosthesis for fracture neck of femur remains a fairly good treatment option in elderly patients.

Introduction: The use of bipolar prosthesis in the management of displaced fracture neck of femur has remained controversial. There has been a lack of long-term studies in its results and survivorship, especially in acetabular erosion. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 108 single design bipolar hemiarthroplasties (105 patients) performed in a single centre between 1999 and 2008, with a mean follow-up of 7.4 years (range: 2.2–18.3 years). General indications of surgery include displaced fracture with age less than 75, narrow femoral canals not permitting the use of a monoblock implant or as salvage procedure for failed internal fixation. Results: Six hips (5%) required further surgery – two patients had debridement for infection and four patients required revision to total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to infection or aseptic loosening. There was no dislocation. No revision was required for acetabulum erosion. Kaplan–Meier analysis showed a 15-year survival free of revision due to any reason to be 93.1% and due to aseptic loosening to be 97.1%. Discussion: Our centre has shown excellent clinical results and low revision rate with the cemented bipolar system. In the context of displaced fracture neck of femur, the long-term results can be compared with THA which is associated with higher perioperative morbidity.
