We hypothesized that use of a new-generation dual mobility cup in revision arthroplasty prevents dislocation in patients with a history of recurrent dislocation of the THA.
In conclusion, the present study demonstrates an excellent 5-year survival rate with respect to the occurrence of postoperative dislocation with a dual mobility cup in revision THA due to instability.
Bouchet et al. [22] performed a case control study of primary THAs with use of a dual mobility cup in 105 patients, compared with the use of conventional implants in a matched group of 106 patients.
Although this study does not have long-term follow-up results or any functional outcome data, it does demonstrate excellent 5 year survival rate with a dual mobility cup in revision THA for recurrent instability.
Leiber-Wackenheim et al. [15] are one of the few who reported on a series of isolated acetabular revisions with an uncemented dual mobility cup in a group of 59 patients with a history of recurrent dislocations.
In contrast with the favorable results described above and the results found in the present study, Massin and Besnier [19] performed acetabular revisions using an uncemented dual mobility cup in 23 patients and reported a re-dislocation rate of 8.7%% at a mean follow-up of 4.5 years (range 2 10 years).

The aim of this study was to assess the results of revisions by dual mobility cups in unstable hemiarthroplasties.
Acetabular revisions using an uncemented dual-mobility cup in 23 patients resulted in 2 cases of dislocation and 1 case of early loosening (Massin and Besnier 2010).
In a case-control study on primary THA performed by a single surgeon through a posterior approach, no dislocations were found after the use of a dual-mobility cup in 105 patients, whereas 5 dislocations occurred in the control group consisting of 108 patients operated with a conventional 28-mm metal head and a polyethylene cup (Bouchet et al. 2011).
Even though prosthetic hip stability depends on many factors other than the implant-related ones, the good results shown in our study reinforce the excellent outcomes reported in the literature, in both primary and revision THA, for the efficacy of dual-mobility cups in managing hip dislocation.
The introduction of dual-mobility cups in primary THA results in a low risk of postoperative dislocation.
