Cementing the cup to lower risk of second hip revision
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at whether cementing the cup (socket) during a second hip revision lowers the risk of needing another surgery. It's for people who have already had one revision hip replacement and are going in for a second one.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your first hip replacement was for osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis).
- You have had a revision hip surgery that replaced the liner, ball, or cup (the socket part).
- The new ball (femoral head) from your revision is size 28mm, 32mm, or 36mm.
- Your surgery was done through a back-of-the-leg approach (posterior approach).
- You did not have a revision that only replaced the thigh bone part.
- You don't have a special 'constrained' liner or a metal-on-metal implant.

This trial studies a specific kind of hip socket (a dual-mobility cup) used during revision hip replacement surgery. It may help improve hip stability and reduce the chance of dislocation when surgeons redo or convert a previous hip implant.
This study follows people getting a first-time hip replacement to see how a specific new hip “cup” (socket part) performs in real-world care. It may help improve future hip replacement choices, especially for patients who fit the study’s surgical and follow-up requirements.
This study compares hip implant “migration” (how the implant may slowly shift) when a cemented hip cup is used with different cement approaches. It may help surgeons choose the option that keeps the implant more stable over time.
This study looks at how well a hip implant stays in place on X-rays before it is removed and replaced. If you are having a hip revision because only one part of the implant has loosened, this trial may be for you.
This trial compares two types of hip socket implants (dual-mobility cups vs. standard cups) during first-time hip replacement through the front of the hip. It aims to see which type may reduce the risk of dislocation after surgery.
This trial compares a “dual-mobility” hip cup to a “unipolar” hip cup during primary hip replacement, focusing on dislocation (the hip coming out of place) and overall cost-effectiveness. It may help your care team choose the best implant for you and monitor outcomes after surgery.
