Dual-mobility with modular components for primary total hip arthroplasty in bilateral bony ankylosis of the hips: A case report

Primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a procedure performed in the United States for a variety of indications, with operation rates slated to increase over 275 % by 2040 when compared to 2014 (Thilak et al., 2015). Dual-mobility (DM) implants have gained popularity in the United States since gaining approval in the early 2010s (Heckmann et al., 2020). It has been well reported that DM implants decrease the risk of dislocation after primary and revision THA (Vielpeau et al., 2011; Donovan et al., 2022; Heifner et al., 2023; Foissey et al., 2023; Schmidt et al., 2020; Neri et al., 2019).
