Corail Total Hip Arthroplasty

A fully hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated stem such as Corail stem, that compacts the cancellous bone around the stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA), is reported to have good long-term results for more than 20 years. Although various fully HA-coated stems have being used recently, it is unclear whether there are differences in the postoperative outcomes. In this study, 224 patients (234 hips) with THA using either the Corail collarless stem or the Hydra stem were enrolled. And then we performed a retrospective comparison of the data at 2 years postoperatively using propensity score matching analysis...

BACKGROUND: Multiple joint registries have reported better implant survival for patients aged > 75 years undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cemented implant combinations when compared to hybrid or uncemented implant combinations. However, there is considerable variation within these broad implant categories, and it has therefore been suggested that specific implant combinations should be compared. We analysed the most common contemporary uncemented (Corail/Pinnacle), hybrid (Exeter V40/Trident) and cemented (Exeter V40/Exeter X3) implant combinations in the New Zealand Joint Registry (NZJR) for patients aged > 75 years...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the application of high offset femoral stem prosthesis in primary total hip arthroplasty. METHODS: From January 2015 to June 2017, 51 patients with unilateral hip diseases who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty with Corail high offset femoral stem prosthesis(KHO type) were selected for retrospective study, including 20 females and 31 males;the age ranged from 21 to 71 years old with an average of(50.8±13.3) years old. The abduction arm, femoral offset, acetabular offset and the length of lower limbs were measured on the positive X-ray film of hip joint after operation...

AIMS: The aim of this study was to compare the mid-term patient-reported outcome, bone remodelling, and migration of a short stem (Collum Femoris Preserving; CFP) with a conventional uncemented stem (Corail). METHODS: Of 81 patients who were initially enrolled, 71 were available at five years' follow-up. The outcomes at two years have previously been reported. The primary outcome measure was the clinical result assessed using the Oxford Hip Score (OHS). Secondary outcomes were the migration of the stem, measured using radiostereometric analysis (RSA), change of bone mineral density (BMD) around the stem, the development of radiolucent lines, and additional patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs)...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the periprosthetic BMD changes around Tri-Lock "Bone Preserving Stem" with the other two common and longer stems (Corail and Summit) after THA. METHODS: It was a retrospective cohort study followed patients underwent the total hip arthroplasty from January 2013 to December 2015. They were selected and followed from January 2013 to Janaury 2020. Patients without osteoporosis underwent hip replacements with three aimed stems were included...

INTRODUCTION: Despite excellent long-term survival, total hip arthroplasty (THA) can fail due to aseptic loosening, dislocations, sepsis and periprosthetic fractures, all of which remain considerably burdensome. Aseptic loosening is one of the main causes of THA failure, often due to osteolysis, stress shielding and/or lack of primary stability. This study aimed to investigate stem-bone contact patterns of a long straight-tapered uncemented stem following primary THA, and to determine whether these contact patterns are related to preoperative femoral morphology and whether they influence postoperative outcomes...

BACKGROUND: Straight cementless stems are common in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the elderly, but controversial due to higher risk of loosening and periprosthetic fracture (PPF). Apart from registries, results for the Corail implant and dual mobility (DM) in over-80 years-old are not known, notably in case of systematic association to a DM cup. We therefore performed a retrospective analysis of Corail implants in patients aged≥80years at implantation for osteoarthritis of the hip, assessing 1) PPF rate and survival for cementless straight stems associated to DM cups, 2) complications, and dislocation in particular, and 3) clinical scores...

This study investigates the clinical and radiological results of a tapered femoral stem (Corail®) and uncemented threaded acetabular cups (Tropic®) and in addition an analysis of the complications and retrieved implants was conducted. Between January 1990 and September 1998, 301 total hips arthroplasties in 268 patients were implanted. 78 patients (87 hips) had died and 9 patients (12 hips) had been lost to follow-up, leaving at the time of the latest follow-up 180 patients (202 hips). The mean age at surgery was 56,1 (27-75) years...

Background and purpose - The anatomical uncemented stem, SP-CL (Static Physiologicus - CementLess), designed to facilitate insertion and to avoid stress concentration at solitary contact points, has been on the market since 2014 but is not well documented. We studied its clinical performance, migration, and associated bone remodeling in a randomized controlled trial, with the Corail stem as control. Patients and methods - 79 patients (80 hips) were primarily recruited and 71 patients (72 hips, 36 SP-CL, 36 Corail) attended the last follow-up at 2 years...

BACKGROUND: Ceramic-on-ceramic bearings permit the use of large femoral head size while maintaining a favorable effect on wear rates. However, because of increased device rigidity, periprosthetic bone quality could be negatively affected due to stress shielding. The purpose of this study is to assess pelvic periprosthetic bone remodeling around a monoblock ceramic-on-ceramic acetabular component compared to that around a conventional modular metal-on-polyethylene device. METHODS: Participants were randomized to receive hip replacement using either a porous-coated, modular metal-on-polyethylene acetabular component (n = 46) or a hydroxyapatite and titanium-coated monoblock shell with an integrated ceramic-on-ceramic bearing (n = 40)...

BACKGROUND: Compared with other total hip arthroplasty (THA) approaches, the anterior approach has an increased rate of revision for femoral-sided complications, and certain stems may increase this risk. The present study aimed to assess the outcome of THA by surgical approach, according to the femoral stem utilized in the procedure. METHODS: Data from the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry were analyzed for patients undergoing primary THA for osteoarthritis via the anterior or posterior approach with use of 1 of 5 of the most common cementless femoral stems from January 2015 to December 2019...

BACKGROUND: Despite increasing use of uncemented implants in young patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), there is minimal evidence for specific implant combinations in this group. We analysed the most commonly used uncemented (Corail-Pinnacle), hybrid (Exeter-Trident/Tritanium), and fully cemented (Exeter) implant combinations in the New Zealand Joint Registry (NZJR) in patients aged under 40 and between 40 and 55 years. METHODS: All THAs recorded in the NZJR between 1999 and 2018 were included...

BACKGROUND: The risk factors for and clinical impact of radiolucent lines (RLLs) in cementless total hip arthroplasty remain contentious. The aim of this work was to describe a method of classification that has clinical significance and to identify risk factors. METHODS: A cohort of 288 subjects with unrevised Corail stems (DePuy Synthes, Warsaw, IN) were reviewed with radiographs and Oxford Hip Scores at 10 years. Based on clinical experience, three groups were defined; those with no RLLs (NoRLLs), those considered to have benign RLLs (BenRLLs), and those considered to have significant RLLs (SigRLLs)...

BACKGROUND: CLS Spotorno is a time-tested femoral stem design with excellent early results; the present review was designed to assess the published evidence on CLS Spotorno stem in the literature to evaluate its long-term outcomes and compare it to two other popular stem designs the uncemented Corail™ and the cemented Exeter™ stems. RESEARCH QUESTION: Do CLS Spotorno stems provide adequate long-term rates of survival in terms of revisions and functional outcomes? METHODOLOGY: Medline, EMBASE and SCOPUS databases were searched for relevant articles and a total number of 670 hits were obtained, out of which 14 relevant studies were included in this review...

PURPOSE: Uncemented stem migration analysis by EBRA-FCA (Einzel-Bild-Roentgen Analyse, Femoral Component Analysis) has been seen to be a good predictive indicator for early implant failure. In this study, we investigated the migration behavior of a cementless press-fit stem after two years follow-up. Stem type and postoperative gap between collar and femur were evaluated as a risk factor. METHODS: Applying a retrospective study design, we reviewed all consecutive patients who between 2013 and 2017 received a cementless press-fit Corail stem (DePuy Orthopaedics Inc...

AIMS: "Get It Right First Time" (GIRFT) and NHS England's Best Practice Tariff (BPT) have published directives advising that patients over the ages of 65 (GIRFT) and 69 years (BPT) receiving total hip arthroplasty (THA) should receive cemented implants and have brought in financial penalties if this policy is not observed. Despite this, worldwide, uncemented component use has increased, a situation described as a 'paradox'. GIRFT and BPT do, however, acknowledge more data are required to support this edict with current policies based on the National Joint Registry survivorship and implant costs...

Currently, patients who undergo total hip arthroplasty want a complete restoration of their hip function and not only pain relief. Templating in THA is essential for accurately predicting the optimal size of the implants required. It also reduces the risk of potential complications. To check the reproducibility of our preoperative planning, to compare the accuracy of templating between orthopedic surgeon (OS), orthopedic resident (OR) and data manager (DM), to determine the learning curve between the different planners and to evaluate the effect of body mass index impact on digital templating for THA...

Introduction: In cases of bone deficiency or osteoporosis, and especially in revision cases, there were only two options for treatment until the impaction bone graft procedure was proposed. These were cemented or cementless femoral prosthesis. In the early 1990s, the use of impaction bone graft with a cemented mantle had gained popularity and had proven to be clinically effective. In Germany, a cementless impaction bone graft procedure using Corail® (DePuy Synthes) stems was devised, and functional scores were similar to conventional cemented Impaction bone grafts...

INTRODUCTION: The uncemented total hip arthroplasty relies on a secure initial fixation of the femoral stem to achieve osseointegration. Undersizing of the femoral implant compromises this. Surgeons routinely review postoperative radiographs to assess appropriate sizing, but existing methods of assessment lack standardisation. We present a system of accurately and reliably classifying radiological undersizing, which will help us better understand the factors that might have led to undersizing...

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes between the Tri-Lock Bone Preservation Stem (BPS) and the conventional standard Corail stem in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS: From March 2012 to May 2014, we retrospectively reviewed 84 patients (104 hips) who received Tri-Lock (BPS) and 84 patients (115 hips) who received conventional standard Corail stem in THA. Their mean ages were 53.12 ± 2.32 years and 52.00 ± 2.11 years, respectively...
