title: Primary total hip arthroplasty by cemented prosthesis in secondary osteoarthritis of the hip joint.
abstract: Cemented total hip arthroplasty has been being practiced successfully all over the world for the last 5 decades. Osteoarthritis is the most common indication of total hip arthroplasty. This study was done to observe the outcome of primary total hip arthroplasty by cemented prosthesis in secondary osteoarthritis of the hip joint. This prospective study was conducted at the department of Orthopaedics, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University and some private hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh from May 2008 to December 2009. Total 21 patients were evaluated. Among them 38.1% had rheumatoid arthritis, 19.1% had ankylosing spondylitis and 42.8% had avascular necrosis. Average duration of postoperative hospital stay was 14.09 days. Regarding the functional outcome, 76.2% patients had excellent, 19.1% had good and 4.8% had fair outcome. So out of 21 cases, 95.2% had satisfactory and 4.8% had unsatisfactory outcome.
