title: Short-Term Outcomes and Complications After Rejuvenate Modular Total Hip Arthroplasty Revision.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  The early short-term outcomes and complications after revision of the recalled Rejuvenate modular neck hip arthroplasty have not been previously reported. This study's purpose is to describe the early outcomes and complications after revision of the Rejuvenate modular femoral neck.
  
  
  METHODS
  A retrospective cohort included 92 patients with 92 Rejuvenate modular neck total hip arthroplasty (THA) who underwent revision surgery between July 2011 and April 2014. Preoperative, 1-year, and 2-year patient-reported outcome measures including Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) and Short Form 12 (SF-12) were described in 92 patients.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Complications arose in (12 of 92) 13% of patients including 8 greater trochanteric fractures, 1 intraoperative periprosthetic acetabular fracture, 2 dislocations, 1 early aseptic loosening, and 1 infection requiring a 2-stage revision. Overall, 66% of patients with a complication required reoperation. Significant changes were noted between preoperative and 1- and 2-year outcomes with respect to WOMAC pain score (P = .0031), WOMAC total score (P = .021), SF-12 mental component score (P < .0001), and physical component score (P < .0001).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Patients can expect an improvement in pain (WOMAC pain) and function (total WOMAC, SF-12 Physical Health Composite Scale), but overall worsening in the SF-12 mental component scores. Patients' physical function improvements are offset by worsened mental function scores. Patients undergoing revision of Rejuvenate modular neck THA implants should be counseled on modest functional improvements and relative frequency of complications.
