title: [Short-term results (2-5 years) of type Furlong hydroxyapatite-coated hip endoprosthesis].
abstract: The short term clinical and radiological results of a hydroxyapatite-coated hip prosthesis with bonding osteogenesis on the hydroxyapatite ceramic and bony tissue reaction had to be studied. 233 patients who had hip replacement were followed up for two to five years and assessed radiologically and by the Merle D'Aubigné rating. Primary total hip arthroplasty as well as revision arthroplasty show sufficient clinical results. Tight pain and aseptic loosening of the stem did not occur. Hydroxyapatite-coating and contour for the Furlong hip prosthesis show a reliable short term anchorage.
