Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the bone mineral density of patients who have undergone either cemented or cementless hip resurfacing.
Detailed Description
Recent research is inconclusive regarding the degree to which the density or strength of the bone around the hip implant is preserved following a hip resurfacing system. Certainly, there are many factors which contribute to the preservation of bone mineral density - we are studying the role of cement. More specifically, we are trying to compare outcomes between patients who receive the cementless Cormet Hip Resurfacing System to those who receive the cemented CONSERVE® Plus Total Resurfacing Hip System. Therefore, the primary purpose of the current study is to compare the bone mineral density between the cementless and cemented hip resurfacing systems. We are also comparing patients who receive these two different hip systems in terms of their x-rays and how they are managing with their hip.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percent change in BMD (g/cm2)
Time Frame: 12 months
The primary outcome is percent change in BMD (g/cm2) from baseline to the 1-year post-operative interval, as measured radiographically in zone L1. Analysis of periprosthetic BMD will be achieved using 6 zones of the femoral neck, which have been used in previous studies
Secondary Outcomes
- Implant Migration(24 months)
- WOMAC Questionnaire to assess functionality(24 months)
- RAND-36 Item Health Survey(24 months)
- Harris Hip Score (HHS) Questionnaire(24 months)
- UCLA Activity Score(24 months)
