Clinical Outcome of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients with Morbid Obesity—Retrospective and Prospective Follow-Up Studies

<i>Background and objective:</i> There is a general clinical concern on the negative impact of obesity on surgical complications and functional outcomes. We hypothesized that the patients with morbid obesity are exceptionally prone to a significantly increased risk for surgical and short...

After the statistical similarity rates of complications and 6- and 12-month functional outcomes (by Harris Hip and SF-36 scores) were revealed in Class 1 patients and patients with normal BMI, we conducted the Stage 2 prospective study, by the same comparison protocol, on the cohorts of Class 2 (<i>N</i> = 29) and Class 3 (<i>N</i> = 16) patients compared to the Class 1 patients (<i>N</i> = 37) as controls. <i>Results:</i> Stage 1: There was no difference in surgical complications and function on 6- and 12-month postoperative follow-up (physical and mental) between Class 1 and patients with normal BMI (<i>p</i> > 0.05). Surgical complications were significantly higher in Class 2 (<i>p</i> < 0.05) and Class 3 (<i>p</i> < 0.001) patients.
