Abstract
At 1 year only 60% of patients undergo reimplantation. One-sixth of patients retain their spacer and approximately 10% require repeat debridement. Death occurred in at least 6% of the population. Several independent patient-related risk factors exist for repeat debridement, no reimplantation or death within 1 year following index THA removal.
