Cemented socket for hip revision surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at whether cementing the socket (cup) during a hip revision lowers the chance of needing another revision later. It compares different types of hip revision to see which ones last longer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your first hip replacement was for osteoarthritis.
- You had a first hip revision that replaced the plastic liner, the metal ball, or the socket (but not just the thigh bone stem).
- After that revision, the ball (femoral head) size is 28, 32, or 36 millimeters.
- The revision surgery used the posterior approach (incision at the back of the hip).
- You do not have a constrained liner (special locking plastic cup) or a metal-on-metal implant.

This trial compares two ways of securing the artificial hip joint during a hip replacement: one uses bone cement, the other doesn't. The goal is to see which method causes less blood loss during surgery, which might lead to a smoother recovery.
This study checks how well a specific hip implant component (the M‑Vizion femoral component) can be used during revision total hip replacement. It aims to see whether the implant’s intended design works reliably for patients who need hip revision surgery.
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 checks whether a hip replacement part that looks stable on X-rays before surgery is actually stable during the revision operation. It aims to improve how doctors decide which parts to replace or keep.
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 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.
