No adverse events were reported.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>At the 10-year follow-up, the RM Pressfit vitamys cup still had promising results with good clinical and radiographic outcomes and a low revision rate.</p>","PeriodicalId":12911,"journal":{"name":"HIP International","volume":" ","pages":"142-149"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142947820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
