Resum
Background: Cemented hip arthroplasty requires applying a layer of polymethylmethacrylate (cement) in the space between the bone and the prosthetic stem. This can be achieved using 2 techniques: the thick-layer technique (requires a layer of at least 2 mm to surround an undersized prosthetic stem), and the thin-layer technique (requires a thin layer of cement, so that the prosthetic stem fills the femoral medullary canal). Both approaches have excellent long-term clinical and radiological outcomes, although an implant's insertion into the bone generates inevitable bone mass and bone metabolic changes around it. Combination of single photon emission computed tomography and computed tomography scan (SPECT-CT) imaging combines the single photon emission computed tomography's ability to provide detailed bone metabolism assessment with the computed tomography scan's capacity to provide a meticulous anatomical study. Methods: This is a single center, open label, randomized clinical trial, performed in the premises of the Bellvitge University Hospital. Participants will be randomly assigned to the Thick-layer technique group (Exeter V40 Cemented Femoral Stem) or to the French paradox technique group (Müller Straight Stem). All participants will have a SPECT-CT scan study at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after the surgery. Discussion: Surgical distress itself and the implant's insertion into the bone may cause microvascular changes that alter periprosthetic bone mass and bone metabolism. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies using SPECT-CT to compare bone metabolism evolution in the postoperative period between these 2 surgical cementation techniques. We aim to provide information in this regard that could help decision making in complicated implant cases and, maybe, pave the way for larger, and methodologically improved studies.
