Summary

Bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BA) has long been the preferred treatment and is performed in most fracture neck of femur (FNF) cases. It is justified by the reasonable operative time, low blood loss and acceptable functional outcomes. The dual mobility cup total hip replacement (DMTHA) has emerged as a relevant alternative to BA. Since then, there is an on-going debate on the best implant to use. Age, co-morbidities, patient independence and potential surgical complications must be considered when deciding between implants. The risk of dislocation is a crucial factor because of its important consequences. The investigators evaluated the functional and mechanical outcomes of BA versus DMTHA in FNF in active elderly patients.
