Austin-Moore hemiarthroplasty (HA) had been selectively used for elderly patients with femoral neck fractures. With increasing life span and activity, the sequela of Austin-Moore HA make the implant no longer favorable. The treatment of failed Austin-Moore HA with advanced acetabular erosion is challenging; however, little has been published regarding this topic. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mid-term results of using cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) in octogenarians. Between 2008 and 2011, 47 patients (32 women and 15 men) with an average age of 86 years (range 83-89 years) were enrolled in this retrospective study. After an average follow-up period of 6.2 years (range 5.0-7.8 years), no migration or loosening of the cup or femoral stem was found. Harris hip scores improved from 36 (range 15-42) preoperatively to 87 (range 80-90). There were no complications directly associated with the procedure except for superficial infections in two patients. Our results suggest that using cementless THA can result in favorable radiographic and clinical outcomes in octogenarian patients.
