What is Mid-term Outcomes of the R3TM Delta Ceramic Acetabular System in Total Hip Arthroplasty about?

## Abstract Background: Whilst bony fixation of hip replacement has stable solutions, there remains controversy over which bearing best optimizes longevity and function. Ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearing combinations are associated with lower risk of revision due to aseptic loosening and dislocation. Evidence for long-term functional outcomes of modern, 4^th^ generation CoC bearings is limited. The aim of this study was to analyze outcomes and complications of the R3TM Acetabular System (Smith & Nephew, Inc., Cordova, TN, USA) in combination with BIOLOX® Delta ceramic femoral head in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA).Methods: Between June 2009 and May 2011, 175 patients (178 hips) were enrolled into a prospective, study at 6 sites in Europe and prospectively followed-up at 3 months and 1, 3, 5, and 7 years postoperative. Results: Total WOMAC score improved from 63 (range, 22-91) preoperative to 8 (range, 0- 8) at 1-year follow-up and remained unchanged at 7-year follow-up. Modified Harris Hip Score improved from 45 (range, 10-87) preoperative to 83 (range, 25-100) at 3 months, 91 (range, 42-100) at 1 year, and 92 (range, 46, 100) at 7 years. UCLA Activity Rati
