Dual Mobility Total Hip Arthroplasty in the United States: A Review of Current and Novel Designs.

Dual Mobility Total Hip Arthroplasty in the United States: A Review of Current and Novel Designs. Surg Technol Int. 2020 May 02;36: Authors: Dankert JF, Lygrisse K, Mont MA, Schwarzkopf R Abstract Dual mobility constructs have become an increasingly popular option for primary and revision total hip arthroplasty. Two monoblock implants and three modular implants are available for use in the United States. Although short- and mid-term outcome data have been positive overall for these systems, each construct has unique features that the orthopaedic surgeon might consider when selecting the appropriate implant for his or her patient. In this review article, we discuss the design specifications and published literature for each dual mobility system and organize this information into a concise resource that can be easily referenced during preoperative planning.
