Outcomes of Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients 60 Years and Younger

CONCLUSION: Revision THA in patients less than 60 years of age was associated with considerably lower rates of early loosening-related failure than historically reported. Recurrent dislocation and infection appear to remain challenges in this population. Despite improvements in survivorship from earlier studies, patient-reported functional improvements remained relatively unchanged. Level of Evidence: IV.PMID:38213848 | PMC:PMC10777697
