This study was designed to evaluate the midterm (> or = 5 years) clinical and radiographic outcomes of the cementless total hip arthroplasty in 64 Chinese patients (72 hips), which revealed that the mean Harris hip score increased from an average of 44.0 points before operation to 92.4 points at the last follow-up. Excellent results were achieved in 60 hips (83%). No loosening of the components was observed radiographically. No revision of the femoral components was required. Only one focal area of pelvic osteolysis in 1 hip (1%), which requires a revision, and some small focal areas of femoral osteolysis in 12 hips (17%) were observed. The mean linear wear rate was 0.125 mm/y. The survival rate of the acetabular and femoral components for radiographic loosening was 100% (95% confidence interval, 0.93-1.0) and for revision was 98.61% (95% confidence interval, 0.95-1.0). This study indicated that the cementless total hip arthroplasty in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head has a satisfactory midterm clinical and radiographic outcomes, but the long-term effect should be further studied.
