Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To Investigate if local treatment of the bonebed with bisphosphonate solution prior to fixation of the acetabular component of a cemented hip prosthesis decreases the risk for future loosening of the prosthesis.;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): Local treatment of the acetabular bone bed with bisphosphonate drugs results in less resorption of the periprosthetic bone and consequently in a more stabile fixation. End Point: Radiostereometric Analysis at 2 years post surgery. | — |
