Abstract
This retrospective study was undertaken to analyze perioperative parameters, functional outcomes and complications of cemented versus uncemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty in elderly patients presenting with displaced intracapsular femoral neck fracture. The authors reviewed 17 patients that underwent cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty and 21 patients that underwent uncemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty. The mean follow-up duration in the cemented and uncemented group was 29.9 and 30.5 months respectively. Intraoperative and postoperative blood loss was higher in the cemented group. On the last follow-up the mean HHS was 74.7 in the cemented group and 84.2 in the uncemented group. No statistically significant difference was evident in the pain score. In summary, bipolar hemiarthroplasty was found to be a good option for displaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures, and overall outcome was marginally better in the uncemented group in terms of postoperative of blood loss and functional outcome at last follow up.
