We hypothesized that a new 3-dimensionally printed cementless highly porous acetabular component (Stryker Trident II TritaniumTM) would show better fixation than an earlier cup from the same manufacturer as assessed by the noninvasive technique of multispectral MRI.MethodsMultiacquisition variable-resonance image combination selective metal suppression MRI was performed in 19 patients implanted with a new 3-dimensionally printed cup and 20 patients who had received a previous-generation cup from the same manufacturer at 1-year follow-up. Each cup was graded globally as well as by 9 specific zones. Integration grades were performed for each zone: 0, full bone integration; [1]Knight S.R. Aujla R. Biswas S.P.

A mixed-effects logistic regression model was used to compare fixation between the 2 groups.ResultsAll cups in both cohorts showed greater than 90% radiographically estimated global bony integration (3-dimensionally printed cups, 99.4%; regular cups 91.6%) with no osteolysis or fluid observed in any cup. The 3-dimensionally printed cup had 1 of 171 zones (0.6%) graded as fibrous membrane present, while the 2-dimensional group had 15 of 180 zones (8.3%) graded as fibrous. Of note, screw hole regions were omitted but may be read as fibrous membrane areas.ConclusionUsing multiacquisition variable-resonance image combination selective MRI, our analysis showed greater biologic fixation and less fibrous membrane formation in the 3-dimensionally printed cups than the control group at 1-year follow-up.","journal":"Arthroplasty Today","year":2020,"id":90245,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":8,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9589,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2020-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":455038,"name":"Ivan De Martino","orcid":"0000-0002-8415-3500","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":455039,"name":"Hollis G.
