Primary Sjögren's syndrome is not associated with poor outcomes after total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective case-control study with a matched cohort of osteoarthritis patients.

Our study demonstrated PSS patients who received THA due to ANFH could achieve clinical outcomes similar to those of non-PSS patients. Improving preoperative Hb level can reduce the risk of transfusion. Key Points • THA significantly improved hip function and health-related quality of life in PSS patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. • Patients with PSS were more likely to reach the transfusion trigger and higher rates of incision complications after THA. • Improving preoperative Hb level can reduce the risk of transfusion for PSS patients who underwent THA.
