Conditions

Hip revision arthroplasty

Interventions

Two groups will receive either pre-processed bone chips or a femoral head, morselized at the operating room. Contamination rates will be measured by swabbing the bone surface.

Eligibility

Age

18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - The hospital criteria and protocol for patients who are diagnosed for a total hip revision will be applied. - Diminished bone stock - patients needing revision surgery - Patient aged 18y and older - Patient willing to participate - No active infection - ASA I-III

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Patients unwilling to participate - Patients with sufficient bone stock -Mentally retarded -ASA IV / V

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Contamination at four different moments during the operation will show the development of contamination during the operation and will also show the differences in contamination rates between pre-processed bone chips and femoral heads morselised at the operating room. Contamination is defined as bacterial growth in one or more of the media inoculated with the swab sticks, regardless of the amount of growth.	—
