Bone Forming at Prosthetic Surfaces. A Randomized Clinical F-PET/CT Study

What is the intensity of F-PET uptake in healthy and osteo arthritic femur and acetabulum, compared to the uptake adjacent to four analyzed endoprosthetic components 1½ and 6 months after surgery?

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A clinical study of 26 patients, age 50-69 years, healthy unless osteoarthritis in one hip, randomized in four groups plus a reference group of same 26 patient´s contralateral healthy hip.

Intervention will be surgery with a total hip arthroplasty. The studied endoprosthetic components are: Cemented Lubinus SP II stem with a ceramic 32 mm head, a cemented Lubinus cross linked cup (Waldemar Link, Hamburg, Germany). Palacose cement with gentamycin, applied with 3:rd generation cementation technique will be used for those cemented implants.

Uncemented HA-coated Corail stem with a ceramic 32 mm head (DePuy, Johnson & Johnson, USA), a fibrous metal Regenerex RingLoc cup (Biomet, Warsaw, Il, USA) All cups will have cross linked Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHWMP).

Clinical score, radiography and PET uptake of Fluoride tracer (SUV) adjacent to the prosthetic surfaces will be analyzed.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
FEMUR: to analyze difference in SUV of the 4 upper ROI's (No 1, 7, 8 and 13) analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented groups AND: to analyze SUV of the 4 upper ROI's analyzed together between each femur study group and the reference group
