Introduction[edit | edit source]

R hip hemiarthroplasty

Partial Hip Replacement/Hip hemiarthroplasty is an orthopaedic procedure for the treatment of certain femoral neck fractures where the femoral head is removed and replaced. "Hemi" refers to the fact that the prosthetic femoral head articulates with the original acetabulum.[1]

Hemiarthroplasty is desirable for the:

  1. Surgical treatment of subcapital neck fractures that are displaced and at high risk of femoral head avascular necrosis (Garden III and IV fractures).
  2. Co-morbid, less active, older patients (not good surgical candidates for THR) as long procedure with high morbidity in this group (younger or more active patients, THR has a better outcome).[1][2]

Technique[edit | edit source]

Walking frame.jpg

The femoral stem is inserted similar to that of a total hip arthroplasty and can be cemented or non-cemented. The acetabulum is not interfered with as it is still in good condition.[3][1] Most partial hip replacement surgeries can be performed in less than one hour in a hospital or surgical centre. The surgeon can choose to conduct open surgery, where a long incision is made diagonal to the joint, or a less-invasive computer-assisted procedure that requires only one or two small cuts. Computer-assisted surgery is usually preferred whenever the amount of bone that needs to be resurfaced or realigned is minimal[4].

Complications[edit | edit source]

Complications following THR can be loosely divided into systemic and procedure specific complications. Incidence of complications have improved over time, due to surgical and anaesthetic techniques improvements, along with the better diagnosis and management of these complications.[5]

  • In a study it was found that the complication rate for hemiarthroplasty was notably higher when compared to THR. This may be explained by a poorer physiological condition of the hemiarthroplasty group upon admission. There were also a larger proportion of patients in this group with a Barthel score5 <19. This score reflects mobility, and lower mobility makes the group slower to rehabilitate and mobilise post-operatively, (making them more vulnerable to chest and urinary infection). This may have contributed to the high rate of chest and urosepsis in this group
  • It is well documented that the rate of dislocation in THR performed following a fractured neck of the femur is significantly higher.[6]
  • Hemiarthroplasty is frequently less painful and requires fewer hospital stays than a full hip replacement.[7]
