Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Osteoarthritis, Hip
Interventions
Device: total hip replacement - standard femoral stem
Device: total hip replacement - short femoral stem
Registration Number
NCT03500926
Lead Sponsor
Association pour le Développement et l'Enseignement de la Chirurgie Réparatrice et Orthopédique
Brief Summary

This randomized controlled trial will compare patients receiving a standard uncemented femoral stem with patients receiving an identically designed short uncemented femoral stem.

Detailed Description

This randomized controlled trial will compare patients receiving a standard uncemented femoral stem with patients receiving an identically designed short uncemented femoral stem.

Patients will be randomized a few days before the operation. At the time of surgery, the surgeon will use the relevant implant. Patients will be followed up for 5 years after surgery. The main outcome criteria is the stem subsidence measured radiographically with a dedicated software.
