AIM: This study aims to assess the risks and peri-operative morbidity associated with a single-stage sequential bilateral hip arthroplasty (SBHA) when performed in patients with arthritis secondary to inflammatory arthropathy. METHODS: Data of patients who underwent SBHA between 2012 and 2018 for inflammatory arthritis were extracted from a database, for peri-operative complications and functional improvement. SBHA for other causes was excluded. RESULTS: Data of 84 consecutive patients with a mean age of 34.5 years were analyzed. The mean follow-up was 2.4 years. 66% had ankylosing spondylitis, while 14% had rheumatoid arthritis. 50% of the patients had bilateral fusion of the hips, and 34% had flexion deformity > 30°.None of the patients had peri-operative cardiac or pulmonary complications. 2.4% had per-operative hypotension (MAP < 50 mmHg) and 1.2% had desaturation (SpO2 < 90%). The mean drop in hematocrit was 9.3%. While 31% did not require blood transfusion, 35% required more than 1 unit of blood. Patients with pre-operative PCV of > 36% had a significantly lower risk of being transfused > 1 unit of blood (p = 0.02). ICU admission was 6%-mostly for post-operative monitoring. While one patient had a local hematoma that needed a wash-out, there were no infections, dislocations, or mortality in these patients. The modified Harris hip score improved from a mean of 26.5-85. The mean hip flexion improved post-operatively from 32° to 92°. CONCLUSIONS: SBHA for inflammatory arthritis can be performed with minimum complications in a multidisciplinary setting. Pre-operatively, PCV of > 36 is advised to reduce transfusion rates.
