Overview
Brief Summary
A randomised, comparative, prospective, single-blinded trial of two hip prosthesis:
- Marathon cemented all-poly acetabular cup(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), Corail uncemented femoral stem(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), 32mm Alumina Biolox Forte femoral head(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana) and
- Pinnacle/Marathon uncemented cup(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), Corail uncemented femoral stem(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), 32mm Alumina Biolox Forte femoral head(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana)
There will be a further in-group randomisation to a Corail femoral stem with or without a collar, creating a number of 4 study-groups in total.
The aims of the study are:
- To compare polyethylene wear and migration of the moderately cross-linked Marathon polyethylene in a cemented version(Marathon) and in an uncemented cup(Pinnacle/Marathon)
- To evaluate micromigration and periacetabular bone mineral density of the 2 cups using radiostereometry(RSA)
- To evaluate the migration patterns and proximal femoral bone density changes around the Corail stems with and without a collar

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Age under 70 years with primary or secondary arthritis of the hip, aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, acute hip fracture or sequelae after hip fracture.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Active malignant disease, rheumatoid arthritis or other generalised auto-immune arthritic disease,
- •BMI \> 35,
- •insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, 0 chronic or recurrent infection,
- •liver disease,
- •Paget's disease,
- •dementia or lack of compliance for other reasons,
- •uncompensated cardiac or pulmonary disease(ASA class 3 or 4). Prosthesis in the contralateral hip does not exclude the patient, but only one hip in each patient can be included in the study.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes

Component migration-stem
Time Frame: After 5 years of follow-up
Comparison of the migration of an uncemented fully HA-coated femoral component with and without a collar using radiostereometric analysis.
Polyethylene wear
Time Frame: After 5 years of follow-up
