Brief Summary

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the mainstay, definitive management for end-stage hip osteoarthritis. Despite improvements of surgical and patient factors, prosthesis-related complications continue to increase in number. This is contributed to by the greater number of such surgeries being completed, larger proportion of elderly individuals among the population, and younger patient age being offered surgical intervention. Specifically, implant loosening and associated migration, is the pathology most commonly yielding revision surgery. A previous study assessing migration of total hip prostheses found that the greatest degree of migration occurred in the first 2 weeks postoperatively, although implants were considered overall stable 2 year following surgery. Continued evaluation of implant migration at time points further from surgery, specifically at 5 years postoperatively, offers insight into long term complications rates. Assessing implant migration will be completed using various imaging modalities, radiostereometric analysis (RSA) and computed tomography (CT). Comparisons between RSA and CT imaging will allow for greater analysis with regards to characterization of implant migration and associated bony changes. Additionally, an individual's gut microbiome has been shown to correspond to their inflammatory and immune profile. Association between gut microbiome profile and implant migration will be assessed to determine if underlying relationship does exist.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Implant Migrationat 5-years post-THA

Measure implant migration that has occurred up until 5-years post-operation using RSA.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
WOMAC Scoreat 5-years post-THA

Assess the WOMAC clinical outcome questionnaire of the originally investigated cohort at 5 years post-operation compared to pre-surgery and early post-surgery.

HSS Scoreat 5-years post-THA

Assess the HHS clinical outcome questionnaire of the originally investigated cohort at 5 years post-operation compared to pre-surgery and early post-surgery.

UCLA Scoreat 5-years post-THA

Assess the UCLA clinical outcome questionnaire of the originally investigated cohort at 5 years post-operation compared to pre-surgery and early post-surgery.

SF12 Scoreat 5-years post-THA

Assess the SF-12 clinical outcome questionnaire of the originally investigated cohort at 5 years post-operation compared to pre-surgery and early post-surgery.

Inducible Displacementat 5-years post-THA

Compare the amount of inducible displacement measured between supine and weight bearing RSA and between internal and external rotation CT exams to validate the accuracy and precision of CT for implant migration analysis.

Joint Imaging Featuresat 5-years post-THA

Correlate CT-based measurements of bone density and texture features with the magnitude of implant migration using slicer (slicer.org) software to segment and analyze the CT images.

Gut Microbiome Analysisat 5-years post-THA

Correlate gut microbiome biomarkers for osteoporosis with the magnitude of implant migration by analyzing the microbial DNA in stool samples. The Shannon index for microbial diversity will be calculated and then correlated to the magnitude of migration.
