(1) Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate short- to mid-term clinical and radiological results in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) with the use of a Selective Laser Melting 3D-printed highly porous titanium acetabular cup (Jump System Traser®, Permedica Orthopaedics). (2) Methods: We conducted a retrospective study and collected prospective data on 125 consecutive patients who underwent primary THA with the use of highly porous titanium cup. Each patient was evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively with a clinical and radiological assessment. (3) Results: The final cohort consisted of 104 patients evaluated after a correct value of 52 (38–74) months. The median Harris Hip Score (HHS) significantly improved from 63.7 (16–95.8) preoperatively to 94.8 (38.2–95.8) postoperatively (p < 0.001), with higher improvement associated with higher age at surgery (β = 0.22, p = 0.025). On postoperative radiographs, the average acetabular cup inclination and anteversion were 46° (30°–57°) and 15° (1°–32°), respectively. All cups radiographically showed signs of osseointegration with no radiolucency observed, or component loosening. (4) Conclusions: The use of this highly porous acetabular cup in primary THA achieved excellent clinical, functional, and radiological results at mid-term follow-up. A better clinical recovery can be expected in older patients. The radiological evaluation showed excellent osseointegration of the cup with complete absence of periprosthetic radiolucent lines.
