Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:Hemiarthroplasty is recommended for treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in physically compromised elderly patients. The objective of this study was to analyze survival of patients aged >80 years after the implantation of either an Austin-Moore type prosthesis or a bipolar bearing prosthesis. METHODS:An Austin-Moore or bipolar hemiarthroplasty was implanted into 120 patients aged >80 years. Demographic data were collected. Survival rate at 5 years and factors related to mortality were analyzed. RESULTS:Sixty-two patients received Austin-Moore hemiarthroplasty, and 58 received bipolar hemiarthroplasty. No significant differences in gender, comorbid conditions, ASA scores, duration of hospitalization, intraoperative blood loss, duration from injury to operation, or postoperative morbidity between the two groups were found. However, patients who received the Austin-Moore hemiarthroplasty were older and had shorter operation time than those who received bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Kaplan-Meier estimates of 5 years survival were 40.0% for patients who received Austin-Moore hemiarthroplasty, and 62.9% for patients who received bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis of risks factors of death revealed that patients who underwent Austin-Moore hemiarthroplasty were 2.0-fold more likely to die when compared to those who received bipolar hemiarthroplasty. CONCLUSIONS:Elderly patients who receive bipolar hemiarthroplasty may have a more favorable survival outcome when compared to those who receive unipolar hemiarthroplasty.
