Five-Year Survivorship of Total Hip Arthroplasty With a Proximally Coated, Medially Collared, Triple-Tapered Femoral Stem: A Retrospective, Multicenter Registry Review

Background The anterior approach for total hip arthroplasty (THA) has gained popularity in recent years. Some surgeons have been hesitant to adopt the approach due to concerns over increased complications such as intraoperative fracture, stem loosening, and stem revision. This study aims to evaluate the all-cause revision rate and survivorship of a collared, triple-tapered stem that was designed specifically for use with the anterior approach in THA to enhance outcomes and reduce adverse events. Methodology A retrospective outcomes review was conducted to assess survivorship and clinical outcomes for a specific proximally coated, medially collared triple-tapered (MCTT) femoral stem. Results In a cohort of 5,264 hips, Kaplan-Meier survivorship estimates (95% confidence interval CI;
