Abstract
Based on the results of our meta-analysis, dual mobility implants appear to have the most efficacy in preventing instability following revision total hip arthroplasty. Notwithstanding, given the relatively small sample sizes of the included studies, in conjunction with heterogeneity in study design, it is important to recognize that further large randomized controlled trials are necessary to determine the optimal bearing surface to reduce the risk of instability after revision total hip arthroplasty.
