Avascular Necrosis, Osteoarthritis, Hip, Inflammatory Arthritis
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Avascular Necrosis focused on measuring Total hip arthroplasty, Medical Device, Safety, Hip prosthesis
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patient is skeletally mature.
Patient qualifies for primary unilateral or bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) based on physical exam and medical history including the following:
- Avascular necrosis (AVN)
- Osteoarthritis (OA)
- Inflammatory arthritis (i.e. Rheumatoid arthritis)
- Post-traumatic arthritis
- Patient has no history of previous prosthetic replacement device (any type, including surface replacement arthroplasty, endoprosthesis, etc.) of the affected hip joint(s).
- Patient has a Harris Hip Score <70 in the affected hip
- Patient is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
- Patient is willing and able to cooperate in the required post-operative therapy.
- Patient is willing and able to complete scheduled follow-up evaluations as described in the Informed Consent.
- Patient has participated in the Informed Consent process and has signed the Ethics Committee approved informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
The patient is:
- A prisoner
- Mentally incompetent or unable to understand what participation in the study entails
- A known alcohol or drug abuser
- Anticipated to be non-compliant.
- The patient has a neuromuscular disorder, vascular disorder or other conditions that could contribute to prosthesis instability, prosthesis fixation failure, or complications in postoperative care.
- The patient has a vascular (large and small vessel disease) insufficiency.
- The patient has a neurologic condition in the ipsalateral or contralateral limb which affects lower limb function.
- The patient has a diagnosed systemic disease that could affect his/her safety or the study outcome.
- The patient is known to be pregnant.
- The patient is unwilling or unable to give informed consent, or to comply with the follow-up program.
- The patient has received an investigational drug or device within the previous 6 months.
- The patient has an active or latent infection in or about the affected hip joint or an infection distant from the hip joint that may spread to the hip hematogenously.
- The patient has insufficient bone stock to fix the component. Insufficient bone stock exists in the presence of metabolic bone disease (i.e. osteoporosis), cancer, and radiation. Note: Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) may be used to assess the presence of adequate bone stock.
- The patient has osteoradionecrosis in the operative hip joint
- The patient has a known sensitivity or allergic reaction to one or more of the implanted materials.
- The patient has known local bone tumors in the operative hip.
- The patient is Grade III obese with a Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40.

Full cohort
Subgroup RSA
Prospective non Controlled to Document long term performance of Allofit IT Shell in combination with the Longevity® Liner when used in primary total hip arthroplasty.
Roentgen Stereometric Analysis (RSA) is a very accurate measurement technique used to obtain micromotion of the implants relative to bone, by means of inserted tantalum markers in the surrounding acetabulum and femur. RSA provides data on the in-vivo stability of the Cup System within 2 years and will only be conducted on 40 patients.
