About this trial

Objective: The main objective of this study is to compare the (early) migration of the cemented BiMobile cup at two year post-surgery between two different cup sizes after standard optimal reaming, and consequently adjusting the cement mantle into circa 2 or 4 mm, in patients with a primary cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). Additionally, the results of the BiMobile cup will be compared to the Avantage cup, which is placed with a standard cup size, resulting in a cement mantle of approximately 2 mm.

Study design: A prospective single centre blinded randomised controlled trial.

Study population: All patients who meet the criteria to undergo a cemented THA.

Eligibility criteria
