Abstract

We report our experience with 143 Durom acetabular components. Our data show a survivorship of 99.2% at 5 years, (95% CI 94.8-99.9), which is not consistent with other reports in the literature of high early failure rates. The true natural history of this component is yet to unfold completely.
