• Provides one of the few true thirty-year benchmarks for cemented THA survivorship, useful context when counseling younger patients about expected implant longevity. • Shows that acetabular aseptic loosening remained more common than femoral loosening even at this extended follow-up, consistent with historical patterns seen with first-generation cementing technique. • Offers a historical reference point against which modern cemented and cementless fixation methods can be compared for very long-term durability.
