First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 150 people aged 18 to 65 who receive the ROMAX hip resurfacing system to treat hip arthritis or dysplasia. Researchers will track how long the implant lasts and how well the hip functions over 10 years. The goal is to monitor the device's safety and performance in real-world use.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ROMAX hip resurfacing system (a medical device that resurfaces the hip joint)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could confirm that the ROMAX system is a safe and effective option for younger patients needing hip resurfacing, potentially delaying or avoiding a full hip replacement.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may not prove superiority over other devices. The device may still fail over time, requiring revision surgery.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
150 patients undergoing hip resurfacing surgery and receiving the ROMAX system will be recruited consecutively by the study investigator. All patients will be offered to join the CTMA subgroup until the number of 40 subjects is reached. Choosing not to participate in the CTMA subgroup will not prevent the patient from participating in the study.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients eligible for hip resurfacing, suitable for the implantation of a Medacta ROMAX hip resurfacing system according to the manufacturer's defined indication for use. * Aged between 18 and 65 years at the time of surgery. * Ability and willingness to provide written informed consent for participation. Exclusion Criteria: * Active infection * BMI \> 40 * Mental illness, when the known pathology is likely to compromise the patient's ability to consent, affect the patient's assessment of their progress, or complete follow-up appointments and exams. * Significantly deformed anatomy (at the surgeon's discretion) * Osteomalacia where the fixation of an uncemented implant is contraindicated * Active rheumatoid arthritis * Osteoporosis * Metabolic disorders likely to impair bone formation and for which the fixation of an uncemented implant is contraindicated * Muscle atrophy or neuromuscular disease * Known allergy or hypersensitivity to the implant material * Any patient who cannot or does not wish to give informed consent to participate in the study * Patients whose chances of regaining independent mobility would be compromised by known concomitant medical issues.
