Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty in haemodialysis and renal transplant patients: systematic review.

CONCLUSIONS: Patients receiving haemodialysis or with a history of renal transplantation can expect good functional outcome following THA. However, the revision rate and deep infection rate are higher than would be expected in patients receiving THA for primary OA. Aseptic loosening is the most common reason for revision. Uncemented implants appear to be associated with lower failure rates both in haemodialysis patients and those who have had a transplant. PMID: 31566011 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
