Background:
Many types of failed hemiarthroplasties have
been reported, but there is no classification of these failures.
Patients & Methods:
Revisions of 217 cases of failed
hemiarthroplasty were studied with an average follow-up
of 6.2 years. Classification system based on site of problem,
mode of failure, and type of revision, was introduced.
Results:
In most cases, the intra-operative assessment of
failure correlated with the preoperative classification (99%).
At the last follow-up, there were 15/217 re-revisions; giving
a success rate of 93%.
Conclusion:
This classification helps in choosing the
appropriate revision method, leading to acceptable results.
