Resumen (ES)

Objectives: Our purpose was to analyze the main
early complications (six weeks) after primary total hip arthroplasty.
Materials and Methods: All patients who had undergone
primary total hip replacement during 2003 were reviewed.
The studied outcomes were the rates of dislocation,
blood loss, infection, periprosthetic fractures, neural and
vascular complications, and mortality. Results: Our rates
were 4,4% for hip dislocation, 1,7% for deep vein thrombosis
with 0,87% for pulmonary embolism, 1,7% for wound infection
without cases of deep infection. 14,9% of the patients needed
postoperative transfusion. We reported 3,5% fractures of the
calcar during surgery and 0,87% of postoperative periprosthetic
fractures. We didn´t reported any neural complications
or mortality within six weeks postoperatively. Conclusions:
The most frequent complication is dislocation, mainly in
cases whose underlying diagnose was hip fracture. Although
prophylaxis is done, deep vein thrombosis goes on being a
frequent complication.
