Abstract
Combined femoral and acetabular anteversion is the sum of femoral and acetabular anteversion, representing their morphological relationship in the axial plane. Along with the increasing understanding of hip dysplasia in recent years, numerous scholars have confirmed the role of combined femoral and acetabular anteversion in the pathological changes of hip dysplasia. At present, the reconstructive surgery for hip dysplasia includes total hip replacement and redirectional hip preservation surgery. As an important surgery index, combined femoral and acetabular anteversion have a crucial role in these surgeries. Herein, we discuss the role of combined femoral and acetabular anteversion in pathological changes of hip dysplasia, total hip replacement, and redirectional hip preservation surgery.

Dislocation Following Anterior and Posterior Total Hip Arthroplasty in the Setting of Spinal Deformity and Stiffness: Evolving Trends Using a High-Risk Protocol at a Single Tertiary Center. J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:1019-1024.e1. [PMID: 37918487 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.10.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients who have spinal stiffness and deformity are at the highest risk for dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Previous reports of this cohort are limited to antero-lateral and postero-lateral (PL) approaches. We investigated the dislocation rate after direct anterior (DA) and PL approach THA with a contemporary high-risk protocol to optimize stability. METHODS We investigated patients undergoing THA who had preoperative biplanar imaging from January-December 2019. Patients were identified using radiographic criteria of spinal-stiffness (<10-degree change in sacral slope from standing to seated) and deformity (flatback deformity with >10-degree difference in pelvic incidence and lumbar lordosis). There were 367 patients identified (181 DA, 186 PL). The primary outcome was dislocation rate at 2-years postoperatively. Risk-factors for dislocation were evaluated using logistic regressions (significance level of 0.05). RESULTS There were 6 (1.6%) dislocations in the entire cohort, with low dislocation rates for both DA (0.6%) and PL-THA (2.7%). We observed increased utilization of dual mobility with larger outer head bearings (>38 mm) with PL-THA (34.4 versus 5.0%, P < .01) and conversely increased utilization of 32-mm femoral-heads with DA-THA (39.4 versus 7.0%, P < .001). Surgical approach (PL) was not a significant risk-factor for dislocation (odds ratio: 5.03, P = .15). Patients who had a history of lumbar-fusion had 8-times higher odds for dislocation (OR: 8.20, P = .020). CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest series to date evaluating DA and PL-THA in the hip-spine 2B-group. Our results demonstrate lower dislocation rate than expected with either surgical approach using a high-risk protocol.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pelvis plays a major role in the orientation of total hip arthroplasty (THA) implants and consequently, on the postoperative stability of the new hip joint. The relationship between the spine and pelvis affects the functional orientation of the acetabular cup, although this relationship differs between individuals and the positions encountered in everyday life. We believe this should be factored in when planning the THA procedure. This led us to conduct an in vivo ultrasound study to document the values of pelvic tilt in standing, sitting and lying positions in patients who have advanced hip osteoarthritis, before and after they undergo THA. HYPOTHESIS The pelvic tilt when standing, sitting and lying supine does not change significantly after THA. MATERIALS AND METHODS The pelvic tilt, defined as the angle between the anterior pelvic plane and a vertical line was measured using an ultrasound device in 30 patients before the THA procedure and again 6 months later in standing, sitting and lying positions. The measurements were done during an office visit with the patient on an examination table for the lying position, on a chair for the sitting position and with the heels and occiput against the wall for the standing position. RESULTS The preoperative and 6-month postoperative pelvic tilt were -5.6̊±10.4̊ [-30.6̊; 11.7̊] and -5.8̊±7.9̊ [-20.6̊; 10.4̊] (p=0.4129) when standing, -44.5̊±6.10 [-53.8̊; -23.9̊] and -43.5̊±6.9̊ [-54.4̊; -17.3̊] (p=0.5760) when sitting, -88.3̊±5.1̊ [-99.3̊; -78.7̊] and -87.9̊±5.9̊ [-97.6̊; -72.4̊] (p=0.6106) when lying supine, respectively. There was no significant difference in the pelvic tilt before and 6 months after THA procedure. Variations of±5̊; ±5-10̊; ±10-15̊ and 15-20̊ were found in 72% (18); 20% (5); 4% (1) and 4% (1) of patients when lying supine, 56% (14); 36% (9); 8% (2); 0% (0) of patients when standing and 76% (19); 24% (6); 0% (0); 0% (0) when sitting. The mean variation for each patient between the preoperative and 6 months postoperative measurement was 4.8±3.4̊ [0.8̊; 10.4̊] (p=0.4129), 3.5±2.3̊ [0.2̊; 9.1̊] (p=0.5760), and 4.6̊±3.2̊ [1.2̊; 15.4̊] (p=0.6106) for the standing, sitting and lying positions respectively. CONCLUSION The pelvic tilt does not significantly change 6 months after THA. Taking into account the various positions used in everyday life may help to optimize the implant position. We have described the use of an affordable, accurate and non-irradiating device that provides fast and easy measurements of pelvic tilt in various positions. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Cureus 2023; 15:e46307.

Abstract
Femoral neck fracture (FNF) is a common and devastating injury in the elderly population. The incidence of FNF is expected to increase in the future, particularly in the aging population. The displaced intracapsular FNF is replaced with a reconstruction prosthesis. These treatment options typically include hemiarthroplasty (HA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA). Dislocation after THA can be a significant complication, leading to increased hospital costs and patient dissatisfaction. This narrative review aims to investigate the potential risk factors for dislocation following THA after FNF. A systematic literature search was conducted, and 21 studies met the inclusion criteria. The studies included a total of 1703 patients who underwent THA after FNF. The majority of the patients were women, and the average age of participants was 76.2 years. The studies were primarily conducted by the orthopedic and traumatology departments. The surgical approach used for THA varied, with the anterior approach being associated with lower dislocation rates compared to the posterior approach. The analysis of surgical volume revealed that high-volume hospitals had lower dislocation rates compared to low-volume hospitals. Eight studies reported postoperative Harris Hip Scores (HHS), with higher HHS scores correlating with lower dislocation rates. Body mass index (BMI) was mentioned in 11 studies, and a normal BMI range was associated with lower dislocation rates compared to the overweight group. Rehabilitation protocols, particularly early initiation of physiotherapy, showed promising results in reducing dislocation rates. Additionally, the type of prosthesis used in the acetabulum was found to influence dislocation rates, with dual mobility cups demonstrating lower rates compared to single cups. In conclusion, several factors may contribute to the risk of dislocation following THA after FNF. These include the surgical approach, surgical volume, postoperative HHS scores, BMI, rehabilitation protocols, and the type of acetabular cup used. Further research is needed to better understand these risk factors and develop strategies to minimize dislocation rates and improve patient outcomes.

A meta-analysis across six decades. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:4491-4500. [PMID: 36357707 PMCID: PMC10293125 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04678-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND While continuous optimization is attempted to decrease the incidence of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA), dislocation remains a major complication. This meta-analysis aims to analyze the evolution of the dislocation risk after primary THA over the decades and to evaluate its potential publication bias. PATIENTS AND METHODS A systematic search was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines for this meta-analysis in the literature published between 1962 and 2020. MEDLINE, Cochrane and Embase databases were searched for studies reporting the dislocation risk and length of follow-up. Studies that reported on revision rates only and did not mention separate dislocations were excluded. All study designs were eligible. Study quality was assessed by existing quality assessment tools adjusted for arthroplasty research. Overall risk and yearly dislocation rates were calculated and related to historical time frame, study design, sample size and length of follow-up. RESULTS In total, 174 studies were included with an overall moderate quality. In total there were 85.209 dislocations reported in 5.030.293 THAs, showing an overall dislocation risk of 1.7%, with a median follow-up of 24 months. The overall dislocation risk classified per decade decreased from 3.7% in 1960-1970 to 0.7% in 2010-2020. The yearly dislocation rate decreased from 1.8 to 0.7% within these same decades. There was no significant correlation between the reported dislocation risk and the duration of follow-up (p = 0.903) or sample size (p = 0.755). The reported dislocation risk was higher in articles with registry data compared to other study designs (p = 0.021). CONCLUSION The dislocation risk in THA has been decreasing over the past decades to 0.7%. Non-selective registry studies reported a higher dislocation risk compared to studies with selective cohorts and RCTs. This indicates that the actual dislocation risk is higher than often reported and 'real-world data' are reflected better in large-scale cohorts and registries.

Testing one hundred thousand hip revisions with artificial intelligence. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2023:10.1007/s00264-023-05856-0. [PMID: 37326696 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-023-05856-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Preventing dislocation with large head (≥ 36 mm), dual mobility, or constrained acetabular liner is another option than a standard (≤ 32 mm). Many other dislocations risk factors than size of the femoral head exist after hip arthroplasty revision. Predicting dislocation with a calculator according to the implant, to the indication of revision, and to patient's risks could allow a better surgery decision. METHODS Our search method covers the period from 2000 to 2022. A total of 470 relevant citations on hip major revision (cup or stem or both revisions) were identified with artificial intelligence comprising 235 publications of 54,742 standard heads comprising 142 publications of 35,270 large heads, comprising 41 publications of 3945 constrained acetabular components, and 52 publications of 10,424 dual mobility implants. We considered four implant types (standard, large head, dual mobility, or constrained acetabular liner) as the entry layer of the artificial neural network (ANN). Indication for revision THA was the second hidden layer. Demographics, spine surgery, and neurologic disease were the third layer. Implant revision, reconstruction process as next input (hidden layer). Surgery-related factors, and so on. The output was a postoperative dislocation or not. RESULTS Of the 104,381 hips that underwent a major revision, a second revision for dislocation was performed for 9234 hips. In each implant group, dislocation remained the first cause of revision. The rate of second revision for dislocation as a percentage of first revision procedures was significantly higher in the standard head group (11.8%) than in the constrained acetabular liner group (4.5%), the dual mobility group (4.1%), and the large head group (6.1%). Instability of a previous THA, infection, or periprosthetic fracture as the indication for revision was increased risk factors as compared with aseptic loosening. One hundred variables were used to create the calculator with the best parameter combination of data and ranking the different factors, according to the four implant types (standard, large head, dual mobility, or constrained acetabular liner). CONCLUSION The calculator can be used as a tool to identify patients at risk for dislocation after hip arthroplasty revision and individualize recommendations to select another option than a standard head size.

Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:1671-1678.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrent hip dislocation after multiple revision total hip arthroplasty is a severe complication. Therefore, constrained acetabular liners (CL) have been used during salvage procedures. We report our experience of constrained liners in a re-revision setting with focus on re-dislocation. We also evaluated acetabular and femoral bone loss as potential risk factor. METHODS Between January 2013 and December 2016, 65 patients were treated in a single institution for revision and re-revision hip arthroplasty using CL. The indication for using a CL was a high risk of re-redislocation after multiple recurrent hip dislocation including failed Dual Mobility Cups (DMC). Compromising soft tissue defects as well as severe bone defect were therefore regarded as high risks. Thirty-eight patients (77.6%) underwent a minimum of three surgical procedures before the index revision procedure. Sixteen patients (24.6%) were excluded as they were lost to follow-up, expired before minimum follow-up or refused study participation, leaving 49 patients in the analysis (75.4%). The mean follow-up was 62 months (44-74; SD = 7.7). We assessed the following potential risk factors for revision or dislocation: type of surgical setting (septic/aseptic), BMI, cup inclination angle, size of liner used and acetabular and femoral bone loss according to Paprosky classification. The primary endpoints were dislocation or repeat revision for any reason. RESULTS Of the 49 patients, we found an overall re-revision rate of 40.8% (20/49) and a dislocation rate of 30.6% (15/49). There were no significant differences among the surgical re-revision rate or dislocation rate as a factor of patient characteristics. In terms of bone loss, there was a trend towards higher revision rates for increasing acetabular and femoral bone loss, but without statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS We found the use of a constrained liner in a re-revision setting still bears a high risk of re-revision and re-dislocation. Therefore we restrained from using constrained liners in favour of Dual mobility cups. In this study there was no significant higher dislocation rate in the subgroup of periprosthetic infection. Furthermore the rigid design of a constrained liner bears the known risk of structural failure of acetabular reconstruction implants. Severe acetabular or femoral bone defects seem to have an impact on the revision rate, but not on the dislocation rate with regards to the restored offset and center of the hip. Results have to be taken into context such that the study population inherently has a predisposition for poorer outcomes. Indications should be strongly filtered for patients at high risk for recurrent hip joint dislocation including failed DMCs with only limited bone loss and moderate soft tissue defects. Our modification to the existing classification with a high inter and intraobserver reliability will make future studies more comparable regarding revisions and bone stock loss. Still further research using objective and reproducible parameters is needed to better analyze data especially in the background of complex revision hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation continues to be a common complication following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although previous studies of computed simulation analysis investigated the range of motion (ROM), it is unclear whether the ROM before impingement simulated using computed tomography-based 3-dimensional simulation analysis (simulated ROM) is related to dislocation after THA. It is also unclear what angles are required in computed simulation analyses for stable hips after THA. In this study, we compared the simulated ROM in patients with and without dislocation. METHODS 16 patients with posterior dislocation were compared with 48 matched patients without dislocation. Risk factors including preoperative bone morphology of the hip, implant position, change of femoral offset, change of leg length, anterior aspect of the greater trochanter (GTa) length, and anterior inferior iliac spine length were also compared. RESULTS The mean flexion angle, internal-rotation at 90° flexion (IR) angle, cup anteversion based on the anterior pelvic plane (APP), tilt-adjusted cup anteversion and GTa length were significantly different between patients with dislocation and patients without dislocation (p = 0.033, 0.002, 0.010, 0.047, 0.046). A receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis suggested cutoff points for flexion angle, IR angle, cup anteversion based on the APP, tilt-adjusted cup anteversion and GTa length, of 114.5°, 45.5°, 19.5°, 12.0° and 15.3 mm. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that preoperative planning to achieve a larger simulated ROM, flexion angle and IR angle, may reduce the risk of posterior dislocation. This study also suggests that fine-tuning of cup anteversion and/or trimming of the overhanging GTa during preoperative planning may reduce the risk of posterior dislocation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aseptic loosening remains a challenging problem after total hip arthroplasty. Accurate cup placement and supplementation of antioxidants in acetabular liners might reduce material failure rates. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of the cup position on the wear behaviour of UHMWPE-XE and UHMWPE-X liners in vivo using virtual radiographs. METHODS We conducted a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter trial. Clinical data of 372 probands were analyzed. Anteroposterior pelvic X-rays of 324 patients immediately postoperatively and after 1 and 5 years were evaluated by the RayMatch® analysis software regarding cup position and wear behaviour. RESULTS Mean cup anteversion was 20.3° (± 7.4) and inclination was 41.9° (± 7.0) postoperatively. 62.3% of all patients had an anteversion and inclination within the Lewinnek safe zone. Anterior and anterolateral approaches led to significantly higher cup anteversion compared to lateral approaches (27.3° ± 5.5; 20.9° ± 7.2; 17.5° ± 6.6; p < 0.001 and p = 0.001, respectively). Mean anteversion increased to 24.6° (± 8.0) after 1 year (p < 0.001). Only one revision occurred because of implant dislocation. Wear rates from UHMWPE-X and UHMWPE-XE did not differ significantly. Anteversion angles ≥ 25° correlated to increased polyethylene wear (23.7 µm/year ± 12.8 vs. 31.1 µm/year ± 22.8, p = 0.012) and this was amplified when inclination angles were ≥ 50° (23.6 µm/year ± 12.8 vs. 38.0 µm/year ± 22.7, p = 0.062). CONCLUSION Anterior approaches lead to the highest inaccuracy of cup placement, but cup positioning outside the Lewinnek safe zone does not necessarily cause higher dislocation rates. Moreover, mean anteversion increased by approximately four degrees within the first year after operation, which is expected to be functional due to a regularization of pelvic tilt after intervention. Mid-term wear rates of UHMWPE-X and UHMWPE-XE liners are comparable, but steep cup positions lead to significantly increased polyethylene wear. In summary, a re-evaluation of target zones for intraoperative cup positioning might be considered. In the long-term reduced oxidative embrittlement could lead to superior wear behaviour of vitamin E-blended liners.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study compared the accuracy of three dimensional (3D) mini-optical navigation and accelerometer-based portable navigation systems for cup positioning during a total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the supine position. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study assessed data for 77 hips using 3D mini-optical navigation (n = 37) and accelerometer-based portable navigation (n = 40). The patients underwent THA through the mini-anterolateral approach in the supine position using a portable navigation system. We assessed the preoperative target angles, recorded intraoperative cup angles, postoperative CT imaging angles, cup angle measurement errors, and other clinical parameters. RESULTS The mean absolute differences in radiographic inclination were similar between 3D mini-optical navigation and accelerometer-based portable navigation systems during THA in the supine position (2.8° ± 1.7° vs 2.8° ± 1.9°, p = 0.637). The mean absolute differences in radiographic anteversion were also similar (2.6° ± 2.3° vs 2.5° ± 1.9°, p = 0.737). Cup malalignment (absolute difference of inclination or anteversion between postoperative CT and preoperative target angle of > 5°) was significantly associated with body mass index (BMI) in accelerometer-based portable navigation but not in 3D mini-optical navigation. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to compare the accuracy of cup positioning between 3D mini-optical and accelerometer-based navigations in THA in the supine position. Both portable navigation systems accurately identified the orientation of cup placement. The accuracy of 3D mini-optical navigation is not affected by high BMI and may be preferred over other options in such patients.

Calculation of the 3-D femoral component's orientation in total hip arthroplasty using a trigonometric algorithm. Sci Rep 2022; 12:3499. [PMID: 35241700 PMCID: PMC8894411 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-07331-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 02/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Femoral component orientation plays a key role in implant stability and therefore the success rate of total hip arthroplasty. To date, this topic has been studied using various definitions and a variety of imaging modalities and protocols. The aim of this study is a proof of concept that a new algorithm can be used to describe the femoral component’s 3D orientation on the three orthogonal anatomical planes and relative to its mechanical axis using input from two orthogonal planes. CT scans of 18 patients with a total of 22 hip arthroplasties were collected. From these, orthogonal coronal and sagittal projections of the complete femur were acquired in the scanning position (MIPs) and relative to the femoral mechanical axis (corrected MIPs). On these images, the orientation of the neck of the femoral component in space and relative to the femoral axis, respectively, was measured by coronal inclination (CIF), sagittal inclination (SIF) and transverse version (TVF). With the algorithm, TVF was also calculated based on CIF and SIF. Differences between measured and calculated TVF and intra- and inter-observer reliability were evaluated using intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC). The error of non-orthogonal imaging (85° angle between the sagittal and coronal reconstructions) was tested on a third series of MIPs. The ICC between the calculated TVF and manually measured TVF, in space and relative to the femoral axis, was 0.98 for both with median absolute differences of 1.3 and 1.5°. For non-orthogonal images this was 0.70 with a median absolute difference of 5°. ICCs for intra-observer and inter-observer reliability for the calculated TVF values were 0.98 and 0.88, respectively. With this algorithm the transverse orientation of the neck of the femoral component can be assessed in space and relative to the mechanical femoral axis by combining its sagittal and coronal orientation. As long as the imaging visualizes two orthogonal planes, the orientation of an implant can be assessed in 3-D, regardless of the imaging modality.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2022; 108:103098. [PMID: 34624538 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2021.103098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2020] [Revised: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Instability after hip arthroplasty, whether it is a total (THA) or intermediate (HA), poses a major risk, however arthroplasty is the standard treatment for displaced intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck of the elderly. Three types of arthroplasties can be proposed: total prostheses with or without a dual mobility cup (DM THA) reducing the risk of dislocation, and hemiarthroplasties. In the absence of clear recommendations regarding the type of implant to be used and the scarcity of studies comparing HA and DM THA, we conducted a monocentric comparative retrospective study using the propensity score method to compare DM THA versus HA on recently displaced femoral neck fractures: (1) survival and risk of dislocation, (2) functional results, (3) mortality. HYPOTHESIS The rate of dislocation of THA fitted with a DM cup is lower than that of HA. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified 112 patients in the HA group and 153 patients in the DM THA group who underwent an emergency arthroplasty for a displaced cervical fracture between 2010 and 2013. The minimum follow-up was 5 years (range, 5-9 years). The mean age at surgery was 81 years (range, 55-101 years). Elective surgery patients (n=2), hardware fractures (n=10), pathological fractures of the femoral neck (n=6), associated fractures (n=3), and revision surgeries (n=5) were excluded. The primary outcome measure was instability. Clinical follow-up was performed by the WOMAC score and the risk of mortality was determined after adjusting for confounding factors using the propensity score method. RESULTS After adjustment by the propensity score, the dislocation rate at 2-years was 2.2% (n=3/153) in the dual mobility THA group and 6.3% (n=7/112) in the HA group (OR=0.34 [95% CI: 0.06-1.96] (p=0.23)). After adjustment by the propensity score, the mean WOMAC score was 8.20 (±6.56) in the THA group, compared to 10.78±3.92 on average in the HA group (p=0.031). After adjustment by the propensity score, we did not find any significant difference in the reoperation rate without changing implants and revisions, and postoperative complications. After adjustment by the propensity score, mortality was significantly higher in the HA group 45.5% (n=69/152) versus 91.5% (n=102/112) in the HA group (OR=0.50 [95% CI: 0.25-0.98] (p=0.042)). DISCUSSION Few studies have compared these two types of implant in the context of trauma. Although the results of our study are not significant regarding the risk of dislocation, the use of a dual mobility cup seems to be a very satisfactory solution in this trauma context.

Risk factors of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2022; 46:749-759. [PMID: 34984499 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-021-05294-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a well-known complication. However, there is little data on its rate and predictors in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The current study is aimed to determine the rate and specific risk factors of dislocation following THA in DDH patients. METHODS All the medico-surgical records of primary THAs from January 2014 to January 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. They were categorized into three main groups: primary OA, DDH, and others. Pre-operative and post-operative radiographs, past medical and surgical history, and surgical notes were reviewed in DDH cases. RESULTS In a total of 171 patients with DDH, 21 suffered from dislocation after THA (12%) which was significantly more frequent than those with primary OA. In univariate analysis, higher grade of dysplasia, smaller head size, intra-operative fracture, Wagner Cone stem, failure of offset restoration, and implanting the cup outside the Lewinnek's safe zone were identified as predictors of dislocation. In multiple regression analysis, however, only higher Crowe grade, intra-operative fracture, and post-operative acetabular offset less than 16 mm were independent predictors of dislocation. CONCLUSION Dysplastic hips can be more prone to post-THA dislocation than those with primary OA. Higher grades of dysplasia, failure of offset restoration, and intra-operative fracture can increase the rate of dislocation in this group of patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dislocation remains a major complication in total hip arthroplasty (THA), in which femoral component orientation is considered a key parameter. New imaging modalities and definitions on femoral component orientation have been introduced, describing orientation in different planes. This study aims to systematically review the relevance of the different orientation parameters on implant stability. METHODS A systematic review was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines to identify articles in the PubMed and EMBASE databases that study the relation between any femoral component orientation parameters and implant stability in primary THA. RESULTS After screening for inclusion and exclusion criteria and quality assessment, nine articles were included. Definitions to describe the femoral component orientation and methodologies to assess its relevance for implant stability differed greatly, with lack of consensus. Seven retrospective case-control studies reported on the relevance of the transversal plane orientation: Low femoral- or low combined femoral and acetabular anteversion was statistical significantly related with more posterior dislocations, and high femoral- or combined femoral and acetabular anteversion with anterior dislocations in two studies. There were insufficient data on sagittal and coronal component orientation in relation to implant stability. CONCLUSION Because of incomparable definitions, limited quality and heterogeneity in methodology of the included studies, there is only weak evidence that the degree of transverse component version is related with implant stability in primary THA. Recommendations about the optimal orientation of the femoral component in all three anatomical planes cannot be provided. Future studies should uniformly define the three-dimensional orientation of the femoral component and systematically describe implant stability.

Abstract
Modular neck (MN) implants can restore the anatomy, especially in deformed hips such as sequelae of development dysplasia. Early designs for MN implants had problems with neck fractures and adverse local tissue, so their use was restricted to limited indications. Results of the latest generation of MN prostheses seem to demonstrate that these problems have been at least mitigated. Given the results of the studies presented in this review, surgeons might consider MN total hip arthroplasty (THA) for a narrower patient selection when a complex reconstruction is required. Long MN THA should be avoided in case of body mass index > 30, and should be used with extreme caution in association with high offset femoral necks with long or extra-long heads. Cr-Co necks should be abandoned, in favour of a titanium alloy connection. Restoring the correct anatomic femoral offset remains a challenge in THA surgeries. MN implants have been introduced to try to solve this problem. The MN design allows surgeons to choose the appropriate degree and length of the neck for desired stability and range of motion.

Accuracy of acetabular cup placement positively correlates with level of training. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2021; 45:2797-2804.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate acetabular component placement may reduce the risk of complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA). While surgeon experience and volume may reduce outliers, little is known how cup positioning accuracy and consistency relates to level of training (resident, fellow, attending) and whether trainee level impacts the magnitude and direction of cup placement errors. METHODS Ninety patients undergoing posterolateral computer-assisted navigation THA were included for analysis. All surgery was performed by two fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeons and assisted by a trainee (orthopedic resident (PGY 1-5) or fellow in adult reconstruction). In order to determine accuracy of cup placement in trainees and attendings, we used computer navigation to determine freehand cup placement by the trainee, then by the attending surgeon. Final cup inclination and version were determined and recorded by computer-assisted surgical navigation. Comparison of consistency in cup inclination and anteversion was made on values obtained by residents, fellows, and attendings and final values provided by the navigation system. In addition, to assess the role of training and repetition, acetabular cup inclination and version were compared between fellows during the first half and the second half of their training year. All comparisons were performed with the Student t-test except for comparison of rate of deviation from the safe zone, which were performed with the chi-square test. The level of significance was defined as p values ≤ 0.05 with 95% confidence interval, and trend toward significance was defined as p values ≤ 0.1. RESULTS Inclination deviation from the final position and cup version deviation from the final position were statistically significant between resident vs attendings (p < 0.001 (inclination), p < 0.001 (version)), fellow vs attendings (p < 0.001 (inclination), p < 0.001 (version)), and all trainee vs attendings (p < 0.001 (inclination), p < 0.001 (version)). In all comparisons, the attending surgeons placed the cup closer to the final cup position than both resident and fellows. Proportion of inclination deviation from the safe zone of residents was significantly higher than of attendings (p < 0.001) but no significant difference was observed between fellows and attending (p = 1.00). Compared to residents, fellows demonstrated lower proportion of inclination deviation from the safe zone of 3.3% vs 23.3% for fellows vs residents (p = 0.002) and tended to implant the cups in a more horizontal position (45.6 ± 6.6° [SD] and 42.7 ± 4.3°, respectively, p = 0.04). Compared to fellow, residents tended to implant the cup in a more anteverted position than the final cup version (9.6 ± 6.7° and 6.74 ± 5.6° [SD], p = 0.034). There was no statistically significant difference in cup position between attendings' free-hand and final (computer assisted) cup placement. CONCLUSION Accurate and consistent acetabular cup placement improves with level of training. Accurate and consistent acetabular cup version is harder to master as compared to acetabular cup inclination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the increased use of dual mobility (DM) in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), debate exists regarding the indications for its use. No specific algorithm exists to guide this decision-making process. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to summarize the currently available literature regarding the use of DM in primary THA and provide evidence-based guidelines based on specific patient populations and risk factors for instability. METHODS We reviewed the current literature for studies evaluating risk factors for dislocation in primary THA, as well as the clinical use and results of DM in primary THA. Based on the strength of the literature, we discuss the use of DM in specific patient populations. We provide a decision-making algorithm to determine whether a patient may be indicated for DM in primary THA. RESULTS Surgeons should consider preoperative patient demographics, risk factors for instability (eg, significant hip-spine issues), type of procedure to be performed (eg, conversion arthroplasty), and indications for surgery (eg, THA for femoral neck fracture). Based on this algorithmic assessment, DM may be warranted in the primary THA setting if a patient's combined risk reaches an established threshold based on the literature. CONCLUSION This evidence-based algorithm may help guide current practice in the use of DM in primary THA. We advocate the continued judicious use of DM in hip arthroplasty. Longer term studies are needed in order to evaluate the durability of DM, as well as any complications related to the DM articulation.

Abstract
Current national guidelines (NICE) recommends that all medically fit, independently-mobile patients without cognitive impairment receive a total hip arTHAoplasty(THA) for displaced intracapsular neck of femur (NOF) fractures. Dislocation is a concern(2-10%). Dual mobility cups have been suggested to address this complication. Our study sets out to compare dislocation rates between dual mobility cups versus unipolar cups.
We performed a retrospective single centre multiple surgeon study of all THAs performed for NOFs between January 2012 and May 2018. A total of 322 total hip replacements (127 dual mobility and 195 unipolar ; Age range of patients, 29 to 91, mean 70 years) were identified for analysis using a database. Data was obtained from electronic patient records and radiographs.
12 patients sustained a dislocation of their THA out of our 322 patients. Of these, 10 dislocations occurred in the unipolar group (5.13%). From the dual mobility cups, 2 had dislocations(1.57%), both with a 28mm head. Both of these dislocations were in alcohol dependent patients with increased susceptibility to falls. Statistical analysis of our data was performed using chi-squared test (p value = 0.0723)
In ‘Getting It Right First Time’ (GIRFT), the authors recommend that all patients that sustain a NOF fracture meeting the criteria of a THA to be offered a dual mobility acetabular cup to reduce the risk of dislocation. The cost of the dual mobility acetabular cup is offset from the cost of overall revision surgery. Limitations of our study are its retrospective nature and selection bias.

J Arthroplasty 2021; 36:1695-1699. [PMID: 33468345 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2020.12.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2020] [Revised: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 12/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual mobility (DM) bearings for total hip arthroplasty (THA) have been proposed to reduce the risk of instability in select patients, especially those undergoing revision surgery. The use of DM bearings has not been studied as extensively for use in primary THA. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes following primary THA with anterior-based approaches between patients receiving DM bearings vs standard bearing hip implants. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of patients undergoing primary THA through an anterior-based approach. A 3:1 propensity score match was performed between the standard and DM bearing patients to control for possible risk factors for instability. Functional outcomes, dislocations, and aseptic revisions were identified for each patient. The effect of DM on postoperative outcomes was determined using univariate statistical analyses. RESULTS In total, 250 DM bearings were compared to 753 standard bearings. We found no difference in dislocation rate between single bearings and DM bearings (0.53% vs 0.4%). There was 1 DM dislocation occurring in a liner with outer diameter of 38 mm. There were no DM dislocations with outer diameter >38 mm. Aseptic revision surgery was more common in DM. This difference was driven by higher incidence of femoral periprosthetic fracture. There were no differences in functional outcomes. CONCLUSION Dislocation rates are comparably low between DM bearings and standard bearings for THA done using an anterior approach to the hip. Further investigation is needed to determine if specific patient populations may benefit from DM implants for primary THA when an anterior approach to the hip is being used.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of cup placement and determine the predictive risk factors for inaccurate cup positioning in robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA). We retrospectively analyzed 115 patients who underwent robot-assisted THA between August 2018 and November 2019. Acetabular cup alignment and three-dimensional (3D) position were measured using pre- or postoperative computed tomography (CT) data. Absolute differences in cup inclination, anteversion, and 3D position were assessed, and their relation to preoperative factors was evaluated. The average measurement of the absolute differences was 1.8° ± 2.0° (inclination) and 1.9° ± 2.3° (anteversion). The average absolute difference in the 3D cup position was 1.1 ± 1.2 mm (coronal plane) and 0.9 ± 1.0 mm (axial plane). Multivariate analysis revealed that a posterior pelvic tilt [odds ratio (OR, 1.1; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.00–1.23] and anterior surgical approach (OR, 5.1; 95% CI, 1.69–15.38) were predictive factors for inaccurate cup positioning with robot-assisted THA. This is the first study to demonstrate the predictive risk factors (posterior pelvic tilt and anterior surgical approach) for inaccurate cup position in robot-assisted THA.

Abstract
Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a troublesome complication, and a source of frustration for the owner and the surgeon. The dislocation rate of hip prostheses in dogs is reported to range from 4 to 15%, representing the most common short-term complication. This is especially true in large and giant breed dogs, usually requiring revision surgery. With the increase in the number of THA being performed in veterinary surgery, reducing or preventing complications such as postoperative THA dislocation will be of paramount importance. The Zurich cementless dual mobility (DM) system allows impingement-free range of angulation of 80 to 132 degrees between the ceramic head and the polyether ether ketone (PEEK) cup when combined with the range of the PEEK cup in the outer metal cup. In this article, we review the use of the DM cup in THA in large and giant breed dogs, in terms of its history, biomechanics, outcomes and complications based on 105 cases.

Cemented Dual Mobility Cup for Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty in Elder Patients with High-Risk Instability. Geriatrics (Basel) 2021; 6:23. [PMID: 33800068 PMCID: PMC8005968 DOI: 10.3390/geriatrics6010023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Several studies have shown that double mobility (DM) cups reduce postoperative dislocations. Does the cemented dual mobility cup reduce dislocations in a specific cohort of elder patients with a high dislocation risk? Our hypothesis is that this implant is optimal for elder patients because it reduces early dislocation. We have retrospectively reviewed elder patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cemented double mobility cup between March 2009 and January 2018. The inclusion criteria were patients (>75 years) who were operated on for primary THA (osteoarthritis or necrosis) with a cemented dual mobility cup and a high-risk instability (at least two patient-dependent risk factors for instability). The exclusion criteria were revision surgeries or hip fracture. In all the cases, the same surgical approach was performed with a Watson Jones modified approach in supine position. We have collected demographic data, instability risk factors. Patients were classified using the Devane's score, Merle d'Aubigné score and the patient's likelihood of falling with the Morse Fall Scale. Surgical and follow-up complications were collected from their medical history. Sixty-eight arthroplasties (68 patients) were included in the study. The median age was 81.7 years (SD 6.4), and the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score showed a distribution: II 27.94%, III 63.24% and IV 8.82%. Devane's score was less than five in all of the cases. At least two patient-dependent risk factors for instability (87% had three or more) were present in each case. The median follow-up time was 49.04 months (SD 22.6). Complications observed were two cases of infection and one case of aseptic loosening at 15 months which required revision surgery. We did not observe any prosthetic dislocation. The cemented dual mobility cup is an excellent surgical option on primary total hip arthroplasties for elder patients with high-risk instability.

Femoral Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty Performed through the Interval of the Direct Anterior Approach. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10020337. [PMID: 33477498 PMCID: PMC7831051 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10020337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 01/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: we report the clinical outcomes for femoral revision total hip replacement (THR) using the Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) interval. Methods: 149 patients (165 hips) with a mean age of 68.9 years (range, 33.2–91.0 years) and a mean follow-up of 4.2 years (1.1–8.9 years) were included. The indication for revision surgery was aseptic stem loosening in 131 (79.4%) hips, periprosthetic fracture in 29 (17.6%) hips, revision for stem malalignment in one (0.6%) hip, and prosthetic failure in four (2.4%) hips. Results: an endofemoral approach was used for 156 hips, and a Wagner transfemoral osteotomy was used for nine hips. An additional cup revision was done in 52 hips (uncemented cup: n = 29; cemented cup: n = 21; acetabular cage: n = 2). The overall complication rate was 14.5% (24 complications). Ten patients (10 hips) were revised (8 cups, 2 liners, 2 stems) with an average time to revision of 6 months (range, 3–23 months). The median preoperative Western Ontario McMasters Osteoarthritis Score (WOMAC) score was 52.5 (Inter Quartile Range (IQR): 33.3), which improved to 27.2 (IQR: 30) postoperatively (p < 0.01). Conclusion: use of the DAA achieved similar results when compared with other surgical approaches in terms of clinical outcomes and complications, including dislocation rate. These results suggest that femoral revision using the DAA interval can be a safe and reliable procedure.

Abstract
Introduction Evolving surgical techniques in total hip arthroplasty (THA) have sought to make the surgical procedures safer. This requires having highly reproducible incision landmarks and simplifying the procedures. The postero-posterolateral approach, a very posterior incision in the hip, meets those requirements. However, this has not helped to reduce the post-operative dislocation rate. The aim of this study was to assess the relevance of combining the postero-posterolateral approach and next-generation dual mobility cups (DMC) in terms of dislocation risk. Materials and methods One hundred and fifty-eight THA were performed consecutively using the postero-posterolateral approach on 150 patients, by a single surgeon, over a 49-month period (November 2010 to December 2014). All acetabular implants were impacted. Results Average length of the incision was 7 cm (6 to 9 cm). Mean duration of the surgical procedure was 75 minutes (40 to 100). Mean blood loss was estimated at 210 cc (25 to 410 cc). All patients could walk with assistance the day before transferring to a rehabilitation centre. There was one posterior dislocation (0.63%), without recurrence. Conclusion The straightforwardness and reproducibility of the anatomical landmarks used for the postero-posterolateral approach, added to the stability of the dual mobility cup, result in a safe combination in the therapeutic THA arsenal.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The orientation of the spine relative to the pelvis-particularly that in the sagittal plane-has been shown in both kinematic and radiographic studies to be paramount in governance of acetabular alignment during normal bodily motion. The purpose of this review is to better understand the challenges faced by arthroplasty surgeons in treating patients that have concurrent lumbar disease and are therefore more likely to have poorer clinical outcomes after THA than in patients without disease. RECENT FINDINGS The concept of an "acetabular safe zone" has been well described in the past regarding the appropriate orientation of acetabular component in THA. However, this concept is now under scrutiny, and rising forth is a concept of functional acetabular orientation that is based on clinically evaluable factors that are patient and motion specific. The interplay between the functional position of the acetabulum and the lumbar spine is complex. The challenges that are thereby faced by arthroplasty surgeons in terms of proper acetabular cup positioning when treating patients with concomitant lumbar disease need to be better understood and studied, so as to prevent catastrophic and costly complications such as periprosthetic joint dislocations and revision surgeries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A new ultrasound-based device is proposed to measure the patient-specific pelvic tilt in different daily positions. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of this device as well as the intraobserver and interobserver precisions. METHODS The accuracy was assessed by performing several tilt measurements with the device on a testing mechanical bench. The error was defined as the difference between the tilt measured with the device and the tilt provided by this test bench. Three physicians, a novice, an intermediate, and an expert user, were also asked to perform 10 measurements on 3 healthy volunteers with low, medium, and high body mass indices to analyze the intraobserver and interobserver precisions. These 10 measurements were performed in the standing, sitting, and supine positions. RESULTS The mean accuracy of the device ± SD was 1.1° ± 0.7° (range, 0°-4.0°). The interobserver and intraobserver precisions were excellent whatever the body mass index and good to excellent according to the positions. There was no learning curve, and the time required to complete the measurements was approximately 5 minutes. CONCLUSIONS This study presents an accurate and precise noninvasive device for measurement of the pelvic tilt in different positions.

Abstract
Formulation of the problem
Dislocation of the femoral component of the endoprosthesis is one of the most frequent complications of total hip replacement. The best option for the “treatment” of dislocation of the hip endoprosthesis is to prevent the development of primary instability. There are cases in which even with the correct installation of the endoprosthesis components, dislocations arise due to the weakness or defect of the capsular–ligament apparatus. Currently, many methods have been developed to strengthen and restore the posterior structures of the capsule of the hip joint with the help of auto- and allomaterials, which differ in both the fixation technique and the characteristics of the materials themselves. In this paper, we propose a method for restoring and strengthening the posterior structures of the capsule of the hip joint using polypropylene-based graft implants. The purpose of this study is to, with the help of specialized software, build a model of the capsule of the hip joint after capsulotomy and to determine the stiffness capabilities of the defect covered with polypropylene mesh.
Results
The study was performed using a software package based on the finite-element method. As a result of the performed calculations, pictures of the distribution of the stress–strain state in the “head-capsule” system were obtained. To assess the effectiveness of the method of closing the capsule, from the viewpoint of rigidity, as the main characteristics, the values of the opening of the cut are selected.
Conclusions
Under the kinematic loading of the model, the smallest values of the opening of the section are obtained when it is closed by a grid. In the case of thread fixation, the values were higher by 8.5%. However, the values of equivalent stresses, both in the capsule and in the head, in the model with the grid turned out to be the largest. These stresses were higher by 23.8% in the capsule and by 60.4% in the head than the same values for the thread fixation model. The obtained results indicate that the model with a grid is more rigid in the considered fixation variants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-operative rehabilitation after posterior-approach total hip arthroplasty (P-THA) includes the use of standard hip precautions, defined as no hip flexion beyond 90°, hip adduction, or hip internal rotation for 6 to 12 weeks after surgery (sometimes for life). Since they were first implemented in the 1970s, subsequent advances may have made standard hip precautions no longer necessary, although little evidence supports that hypothesis. A modified set of precautions, a "pose avoidance protocol," could be effective in enhancing recovery, but its effectiveness on early dislocation and post-surgical outcomes is not known. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We sought to determine the functional recovery of patients on a pose avoidance protocol after P-THA according to levels of pain and patient satisfaction, rates of dislocation, the use of assistive devices, and a return to driving. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, descriptive study of data from a consecutive case series of 164 patients treated by a single surgeon between January 2014 and December 2015. Patients who had undergone a primary uncemented P-THA were prescribed a pose avoidance protocol and followed for a minimum of 6 weeks. Exclusion criteria were patients with congenital hip dysplasia, revision THA, femoral neck fracture, rheumatoid arthritis, or neuromuscular disease. Changes to the rehabilitation protocol included elimination of the requirements to use elevated chairs, raised toilet seats, and abduction pillows for sleeping. Patients could resume driving at 2 and 3 weeks for left and right P-THA, respectively. The only motion restriction was avoiding the combination of hip flexion past 90°, hip adduction, and hip internal rotation. Patients could perform all other movements and to bear weight and stop using walking aids as tolerated. Patients completed a biweekly questionnaire to assess their functional recovery, opioid use, and pain levels. RESULTS At 2 weeks after surgery, 80% of patients reported no pain, 86% did not require walking aids, and 92% were satisfied with their recovery. At 6 weeks after surgery, 89% of patients reported no pain. Patients returned to driving at a mean of 2.7 weeks after surgery. No patients had experienced a dislocation at 6 weeks of follow-up. CONCLUSION A pose avoidance rehabilitation protocol in this P-THA population was found to be safe and was associated with accelerated functional recovery and high patient satisfaction without increased risk of early post-operative dislocation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dislocation of large-diameter head (LDH) metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) or hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is a rare complication. This study aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors for dislocation of LDH MoM THAs and HRAs. METHODS This retrospective analysis considered 4038 cementless LDH MoM THAs and HRAs, 3207 THAs in 2912 patients and 831 HRAs in 757 patients. The end of follow-up was revision due to dislocation. Incidence of dislocation was evaluated from this study population of 4038, and study groups were formed. The study was designed as a case-control study, and a threefold stratified randomised control group was formed. Demographic data were collected and radiological analyses were performed in the study groups. RESULTS There were 26/3207 (0.8%) early dislocations in the THA group, and 6/831 (0.7%) in the HRA group ( p = 0.9). Most LDH THA dislocations occurred in a group with head size ⩽ 38 mm (18/26) ( p < 0.001). In dislocated hips, there were more dysplastic acetabula and post-traumatic hips than in the control group ( p = 0.036). In the dislocation group, the mean acetabulum component anteversion angle was 19.6° (standard deviation [SD] 13.4°) and in the control group it was 23.2° (SD 10.4°) ( p = 0.006); 7/32 (21.8%) of dislocated THAs needed revision surgery, and mean time to revision from the index surgery was 1.2 (SD 2.6) years. DISCUSSION Dislocations occurred more often in THAs of head size ⩽ 38 mm and with a smaller anteversion angle of the acetabulum component. Hip dysplasia and post-traumatic osteoarthritis were more common in patients with dislocation.

Early results of displaced femoral neck fragility fractures treated with supercapsular percutaneous-assisted total hip arthroplasty. Arthroplast Today 2019; 5:193-196. [PMID: 31286043 PMCID: PMC6588679 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2019.02.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2018] [Revised: 02/04/2019] [Accepted: 02/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the preferred treatment for displaced femoral neck fractures in select patients, although dislocation remains a concern. In some studies, the supercapsular percutaneously assisted (SuperPATH) approach has demonstrated early mobilization, short hospital stay, and low dislocation rates in primary THA, but there are little data on its use for fractures. This study describes the perioperative outcomes and early dislocation rate of SuperPATH THA for displaced femoral neck fragility fractures. Methods A retrospective review was performed of previous ambulatory patients with a displaced femoral neck fragility fracture treated with THA using the SuperPATH approach. Demographic data, time to ambulation, length of stay, and in-hospital complications during the hospital stay and follow-up period were recorded. Phone interviews were conducted to check for dislocations 1 year after surgery. Results Thirty-seven consecutive patients were included with an average age of 75.0 years. Hospital stay averaged 5.5 days, and patients were discharged on average postoperative day 3.6. About 83.8% of patients were ambulatory by postoperative day 1, and 94.6% ambulatory before discharge. Twenty-seven percent of patients were discharged home, 46% to inpatient rehabilitation, 24% to skilled nursing facility, and 1 patient to hospice. At follow-up, there was no symptomatic heterotopic ossification and no infections. Thirty-two patients were available for telephone interviews at 1 year, with no dislocations reported. Conclusions In this small cohort, the SuperPATH approach for THA appears to be safe and effective for use in femoral neck fragility fractures, resulting in early ambulation and a low dislocation rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation continues to be a common complication following total hip arthroplasty (THA). A larger intraoperative range of motion (ROM) is believed to minimize dislocation risk, and intraoperative stability tests have been used to assess the ROM. However, it is not clear whether or not intraoperative stability tests can predict hip stability after THA. It is also unclear which angles are required in intraoperative stability tests. We investigated the usefulness of intraoperative stability tests, and other risk factors to predict hip stability after THA. METHODS Patients operated by single surgeon at one hospital from June 2009 to December 2013 were evaluated. This study included 185 hips with 32 mm metal femoral head. The range of internal rotation with 90° hip flexion (IR angle) was measured as an intraoperative stability test. The variables studied as risk factors included age, height, weight, gender, cerebral dysfunction, preoperative diagnosis, history of previous hip surgery, and IR angle. RESULTS Mean IR angle was statistically different between patients with dislocation and patients without dislocation (59.5° vs 69.6°: p = 0.006). Cerebral dysfunction and a history of previous hip surgery were statistically related with prevalence of dislocation (p = 0.021, and p = 0.011). The receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis suggested that the cutoff points for IR angle were 51° and 67°. Dislocation rate in larger IR angle group was significantly lower than the rate in smaller IR angle group when patients were divided by 51° (p = 0.002). Logistic regression analyses showed that significant risk factors were cerebral dysfunction (OR: 5.3 (95%CI 1.1-25.9); p = 0.037), history of previous hip surgery (OR: 8.6 (95%CI 1.2-63.0); p = 0.035), and IR angle (OR: 10.4 (95%CI 1.9-57.1); p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS The results showed that intraoperative stability test, especially the IR angle, was a useful method to predict hip stability after THA, and a larger intraoperative ROM reduced the likelihood of dislocation. 51° and 67° were indicated as cutoff points for IR angle. Cerebral dysfunction and a history of previous hip surgery are also risk factors for the incidence of dislocation after THA. TRIAL REGISTRATION This is a retrospective study, not a clinical trial defined by the World Health Organization (WHO).

The impact of capsular repair on the risk for dislocation after revision total hip arthroplasty - a retrospective cohort-study of 259 cases. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2018; 19:314.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation following total hip arthroplasty has to date not been resolved satisfactorily. Previous work has shown that using a less-invasive adaption of Bauer's lateral transgluteal approach with capsular repair significantly reduces dislocation rates in primary total hip arthroplasty. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to assess whether this approach also helps to reduce the dislocation rate in revision total hip arthroplasty. METHODS We analyzed revision total hip arthroplasty cases performed between 10/2005 and 12/2013 in our department, classifying capsular repair cases as study group and capsular resection cases as control group. The WOMAC score, the dislocations and the revisions were observed. RESULTS A total of 259 cases were included, 100 in the study group and 159 in the control group. In the 12-month follow-up, dislocation rates were significantly lower in the study group (3%, n = 3) compared to the control group (21.4%, n = 34; p = 0.001). Overall follow-up periods were 49 and 79 months, revision frequencies were 10 and 29%, pain improvements were 5.5 compared to 4.4 and the WOMAC global scores averaged 2.0 ± 2.1 and 2.9 ± 2.6 for the study group and the control group, respectively. CONCLUSION The modified, less-invasive, lateral transgluteal approach with capsular repair was accompanied by an 86% reduction in dislocation rates when compared to the conventional technique with capsular resection via the anterolateral Watson-Jones-approach. Capsular repair is possible in about 60% of the revision total hip arthroplasty cases, may be considered as beneficial to avoid dislocation and can therefore be recommended.

Abstract
The accuracy of cup position in total hip arthroplasty is essential for a satisfactory result as malpositioning increases the risk of complications including dislocation, high wear rate, loosening, squeaking, edge loading, impingement and ultimately failure. We studied 166 patients in a single-surgeon-series of matched cohorts of patients who underwent total hip arthroplasties. Four separate groups were identified comprising of the posterior approach +/- navigation and the direct anterior approach +/- navigation. We found a significant difference between the direct anterior navigated group and the posterior non-navigated group for both anteversions (P < 0.05, confidence interval (CI) -3.86 to -1.73) and inclination (P < 0.05, CI -3.08 to -1.08). Almost, 72% of anterior navigated patients fell within 5o of the navigation software set target cup position of 45o inclination and 20o anteversion and 100% were within 10o. Only 30% of posterior non-navigated were within 5o of both anteversion and inclination and 73% were within 10o. There was also a significant difference between the direct anterior navigated and non-navigated group with respect to anteversion only (p < 0.05, CI 1.50 to 1.30). There were no other significant differences between approaches +/- navigation. The direct anterior approach allows ease of access to both anterior-superior iliac spines for navigation and a supine patient allows anteversion and inclination to be measured in the frontal plane. We conclude that the direct anterior approach with navigation improves the accuracy of cup position compared to the conventional posterior approach without navigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation remains a clinically important problem following primary total hip arthroplasty, and it is a common reason for revision total hip arthroplasty. Dual mobility (DM) implants decrease the risk of dislocation but can be more expensive than conventional implants and have idiosyncratic failure mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cost-effectiveness of DM implants compared with conventional bearings for primary total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Markov model analysis was conducted from the societal perspective with use of direct and indirect costs. Costs, expressed in 2013 U.S. dollars, were derived from the literature, the National Inpatient Sample, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Effectiveness was expressed in quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). The model was populated with health state utilities and state transition probabilities derived from previously published literature. The analysis was performed for a patient's lifetime, and costs and effectiveness were discounted at 3% annually. The principal outcome was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), with a willingness-to-pay threshold of $100,000/QALY. Sensitivity analyses were performed to explore relevant uncertainty. RESULTS In the base case, DM total hip arthroplasty showed absolute dominance over conventional total hip arthroplasty, with lower accrued costs ($39,008 versus $40,031 U.S. dollars) and higher accrued utility (13.18 versus 13.13 QALYs) indicating cost-savings. DM total hip arthroplasty ceased being cost-saving when its implant costs exceeded those of conventional total hip arthroplasty by $1,023, and the cost-effectiveness threshold for DM implants was $5,287 greater than that for conventional implants. DM was not cost-effective when the annualized incremental probability of revision from any unforeseen failure mechanism or mechanisms exceeded 0.29%. The probability of intraprosthetic dislocation exerted the most influence on model results. CONCLUSIONS This model determined that, compared with conventional bearings, DM implants can be cost-saving for routine primary total hip arthroplasty, from the societal perspective, if newer-generation DM implants meet specific economic and clinical benchmarks. The differences between these thresholds and the performance of other contemporary bearings were frequently quite narrow. The results have potential application to the postmarket surveillance of newer-generation DM components. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Economic and decision analysis Level III.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malorientation of the socket contributes to instability after hip arthroplasty but the optimal orientation of the cup in relation to the pelvis has not been unequivocally described. Large radiological studies are few and problems occur with film standardisation, measurement methodology used and alternative definitions of describing acetabular orientation. METHODS A cohort of 1,578 patients from a single institution is studied where all patient data was collected prospectively. Risk factors for patients undergoing surgery are analysed. Radiological data was compared between a series of non-dislocating hips and dislocating cases matched 2:1 by operation type, age and diagnosis. RESULTS The overall dislocation rate for all 1,578 cases was 3.23% but the rate varied according to the type of surgery performed. The rate in uncomplicated primary cases was 2.4% which increased to 9.3% for second stage implantation for a two stage procedure for infection. There was no significant difference in the variability of the dislocating and non-dislocating groups for either inclination (p = 0.393) or anteversion (p = 0.661). CONCLUSIONS A "safe zone" for socket orientation to avoid dislocation could not be defined. The cause of dislocation is multifactorial, re-establishing the anatomic centre of rotation, balancing soft tissues and avoidance of impingement around the hip are important considerations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No formal systematic review or meta-analysis was performed up to now to summarize the risk factors of dislocation after revision total hip arthroplasty(THA). AIMS The present study aimed to quantitatively and comprehensively conclude the risk factors of dislocation after revision total hip arthroplasty. METHODS A search was applied to CNKI, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane central database (all up to October 2016). All studies assessing the risk factors of dislocation after revision THA without language restriction were reviewed, and qualities of included studies were assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Data were pooled and a meta-analysis completed. RESULTS A total of 8 studies were selected, which altogether included 4656 revision THAs. 421 of them were cases of dislocation occurred after surgery, suggesting the accumulated incidence of 9.04%. Results of meta-analyses showed that age at surgery (standardized mean difference -0.222; 95% CI -0.413-0.031), small-diameter femoral heads (≤28 mm) (OR 1.451; 95%CI 1.056-1.994), history of instability (OR 2.739; 95%CI 1.888-3.974), number of prior revisions ≥ 3 (OR, 2.226; 95% CI, 1.569-3.16) and number of prior revisions ≥ 2 (OR 1.949; 95% CI 1.349-2.817), acetabular components with elevated rim liner were less likely to develop dislocation after revision THA (OR 0.611; 95% CI 0.415-0.898). CONCLUSIONS Related prophylaxis strategies should be implemented in patients involved with above-mentioned risk factors to prevent dislocation after revision THA.

Abstract
Hip dislocation is a major and common complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA), which appears with an incidence between 0.3% and 10% in primary total hip arthroplasties and up to 28% in revision THA. The hip dislocations can be classified into three groups: early, intermediate and late. Approximately two-thirds of cases can be treated successfully with a non-operative approach. The rest require further surgical intervention. The prerequisite to developing an appropriate treatment strategy is a thorough evaluation to identify the causes of the dislocation. In addition, many factors that contribute to THA dislocation are related to the surgical technique, mainly including component orientation, femoral head diameter, restoration of femoral offset and leg length, cam impingement and condition of the soft tissues. The diagnosis of a dislocated hip is relatively easy because the clinical situation is very typical. Having identified a dislocated hip, the first step is to perform a closed reduction of the implant. After reduction you must perform a computed tomography scan to evaluate the surgical options for treatment of recurrent dislocation that include: revision arthroplasty, modular components exchange, dual-mobility cups, large femoral heads, constrained cups, elimination of impingement and soft tissue procedures. The objective is to avoid further dislocation, a devastating event which is increasing the number of operations on the hip. To obtain this goal is useful to follow an algorithm of treatment, but the best treatment remains prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of concurrent spinopelvic fusion and THA and identify the risk of THA dislocation in patients with concurrent spinopelvic fusion. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed an institutional database of spinal deformity patients and the Humana Inc data set to identify patients with concurrent THA and spinopelvic fusion. The prevalence of concurrent THA and spinopelvic fusion was identified, as was the risk of dislocation for all cohorts. RESULTS Of 328 patients with spinopelvic fusions at our institution, 15 patients (4.6%) were found to have concurrent THA. Similarly, within the Humana database among 1049 patients with spinopelvic fusion, 4.6% had a concurrent THA. Among the 58,692 THA patients identified, only 0.1% had a concurrent spinopelvic fusion. A THA dislocation was observed in 3 of 15 patients (20.0%) and 3 of 18 THA (16.7%) within our institutional review. Within the Humana database, 8.3% of patients with THA and spinopelvic fusion went on to have a dislocation of their THA compared to 2.9% of patients with THA and no history of spinopelvic fusion (relative risk: 2.9 [1.2-7.6]). CONCLUSION Among patients with spinopelvic fusion, the prevalence of concurrent THA is 4.6%, and among primary THA patients, the prevalence of concurrent spinopelvic fusion is 0.1%. An alarmingly high THA dislocation rate has been demonstrated among THA patients with concurrent spinopelvic fusion at our institution (20%) and within a large national database (8.3%).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation complicates 1% to 5% of primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs). As a result, some surgeons consider dual-mobility articulations, which are usually used in the revision setting to decrease the likelihood of dislocation, as an option for primary THA. However, few studies have evaluated their use in this setting. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What is the cup survivorship when the dual-mobility articulation is used in the setting of primary THA? (2) What are the clinical outcomes with this approach? (3) What are the radiographic outcomes? (4) What are the complications of dual-mobility articulations in primary THA? METHODS Between 2011 and 2013, the five participating surgeons performed 495 cementless primary THAs. During that time, one of the five surgeons used dual-mobility articulations for all THAs, and the other four used it whenever the acetabular cup size was 52 mm or greater to enable a 28-mm head. Of the 495 patients, 453 (92%) were performed using this device. Smaller patients were treated with a standard THA. Of the 453 patients, a total of 43 patients (10%) were lost to followup before the 2-year minimum. The resulting 410 patients who were included in the analysis (164 men, 246 women) had a mean age of 64 years (SD, 12 years). The mean followup was 3 years (SD, 0.7 years). We performed Kaplan-Meier analyses to assess survivorship to aseptic failure and all-cause acetabular component survivorship. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Harris hip score (HHS); radiographs were assessed for cup migration, progressive radiolucencies, and positional changes of the components; and any surgery-related complications were recorded. RESULTS The survivorship to aseptic failure and all-cause acetabular component survivorship was 99.8% (failures, n = 1) (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.517-4.547) and 99.3% (failures, aseptic, n = 1; septic, n = 2) (95% CI, 4.494-4.543); one hip had trunnion notching caused by impingement of a malpositioned cup, which was treated with revision of the cup and stem; and two patients had periprosthetic infections that were treated with two-stage revisions. There were no dislocations. Patients had a mean HHS of 94 (SD, 6) at final followup. On radiographic evaluation, no progressive radiolucencies or positional changes of the components were identified. Surgical complications included one traumatic avulsion of the abductors, one traumatic avulsion of the greater trochanter, which was repaired without revision of any of the components, and one loose femoral stem, which required revision of the femoral component only. CONCLUSIONS Dual-mobility cups in primary THA yield seemingly comparable survivorship and complications to conventional THA bearings at short-term followup. Because serious complications have occasionally been reported with the use of these bearings, larger, longer term, comparative-and ideally, randomized-trials will be needed to establish the superiority of one approach over the other. Until or unless such studies show the superiority of dual-mobility designs for primary THA, we recommend that in the setting of uncomplicated primary THA, dual-mobility articulations be used only in centers that track their results carefully or in research protocols. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with an increased risk of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, in patients with obesity, it is not known whether the risk is only in the early postoperative period or whether it persists several years after surgery, and whether having bariatric surgery before undergoing THA and/or receiving a specific device (such as a dual-mobility or constrained acetabular liner) is more effective in terms of decreasing the risk of dislocation. QUESTION/PURPOSES (1) What is the cumulative risk of dislocation in patients with obesity after THA in the absence of a dual-mobility or constrained liner, and is this related to component positioning? (2) Does bariatric surgery before undergoing THA decrease dislocation risk in patients with obesity? (3) Are dual-mobility and constrained liners efficient in preventing dislocation in patients with obesity? METHODS At our university-based practice, all surgeons adhered to the following treatment approaches: Before 2000 no dual-mobility implants or constrained liners were used for primary THAs. Between 2000 and 2008, all patients whose body mass index (BMI) was greater than 30 kg/m(2) received dual-mobility liners (or constrained liners), except when they had previously had bariatric surgery. After 2008, all patients with BMIs over 30 kg/m(2) as well as those patients who were previously treated with bariatric surgery (regardless of BMI at the time of the index THA) received dual-mobility or constrained liners. This case-control study compared the dislocation percentage between 215 hips in nonobese patients (BMI ≤ 30 kg/m(2)), 215 hips in patients with obesity (BMI > 30 kg/m(2)) who received standard cups, 85 hips in patients with bariatric surgery before THA using standard cups (with reduction to a BMI < 30 kg/m(2)), and 155 hips in patients with obesity who received dual-mobility (when younger than 70 years) or constrained liners (when older than 70 years). All patients received the same implants except for different femoral head diameters (32-mm head with standard cups and 28-mm head with dual-mobility or constrained liners). The patients were followed at routine intervals and were specifically queried about dislocation. All the 670 hips had a minimum followup of 5 years with a mean followup of 14 years (range 5-25 years). At the most recent followup, 101 (15%) hips were lost to followup (respectively, 36 of 215, 34 of 215, five of 85, 24 of 155), which is the same ratio as observed among the underlying populations from which the patients were drawn. RESULTS With standard liners, more hips in patients with BMI > 30 kg/m(2) dislocated than did hips in nonobese (BMI < 30 kg/m(2)) patients. The cumulative number of dislocations (first time without recurrent dislocation) was 6% (13 of 215) at 1-year followup in obese patients compared with 2% (four of 215) in nonobese patients (odds ratio [OR], 3.4; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-10.58; p = 0.03) and was 13% (28 of 215) at 15 years followup compared with 4% (eight of 215) in nonobese patients (OR, 3.9; 95% CI 1.72-8.71; p = 0.001). When bariatric surgery was performed before THA, BMI declined from 42 kg/m(2) to 28 kg/m(2), but with the same standard liners, more hips after bariatric surgery dislocated at 1-year followup than did hips in patients with obesity without preoperative bariatric surgery (13% [11 of 85] compared with 6% [13 of 215]; OR, 0.43; 95% CI 0.18-1.01; p = 0.05). Dual-mobility or constrained implants decreased the risk of dislocation, and fewer hips in patients with obesity with dual-mobility or constrained liners at 7 years followup had dislocated than did hips with standard liners (2% [three of 155] compared with 9% [20 of 215]; OR, 0.19; 95% CI 0.05-0.66; p = 0.01) bringing this number in line with the number observed in nonobese subjects with standard cups. CONCLUSIONS With standard liners, the risk of dislocation is increased in patients with obesity. Preoperative decrease of BMI (with bariatric surgery) in patients with obesity did not prevent the risk of dislocation with standard liners. Use of dual-mobility or constrained liners in these patients is an effective technique to reduce the risk of postoperative hip dislocation. However, we do not yet know the full risks of loosening of dual-mobility and constrained liners in this obese population. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Dual mobility cups have two points of articulation, one between the shell and the polyethylene (external bearing) and one between the polyethylene and the femoral head (internal bearing). Movement occurs at the inner bearing; the outer bearing only moves at extremes of movement. Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a cause of much morbidity and its treatment has significant cost implications. Dual mobility cups provide an increased range of movement and a may reduce the risk of dislocation. This paper reviews the use of these cups in THA, particularly where stability is an issue. Dual mobility cups may be of benefit in primary THA in patients at a high risk of dislocation, such as those who are older with increased comorbidities and a higher American Association of Anesthesiology grade and those with a neuromuscular disease. They may be used at revision surgery where the risk of dislocation is high, such as in patients with many prior dislocations, or those with abductor deficiency. They may also be used in THA for displaced fractures of the femoral neck, which has a notoriously high rate of dislocation.

Abstract
There is no published literature to support mid to long term results of hip resurfacing (HR) arthroplasty in patients over the age of 70 years. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the function HR in this age group (70 or older at the time of surgery) at medium to long term follow-up. Between July 1997 and November 2002, the Oswestry Outcome Centre independently and prospectively collected data on 5000 Birmingham Hip Resurfacings (BHRs). 106 had been implanted in elderly patients who were 70 years of age or older. The post-operative Harris and Merle D'Aubigné and Postel (MDP) hip scores and causes for revision were used to ascertain function and implant survival. Hip scores for the older BHR patients were compared with those from younger patients. The average age at surgery of the elderly BHR cohort was 73.2 years (range, 70.0 to 87.9 years) with a mean follow-up of 7.1 years (range, 0.5 to 10.9 years). Four patients had a femoral neck fracture and required conversion to a conventional total hip replacement. There were no patients lost to follow-up and no dislocations in this series. The median Harris hip score (HHS) was significantly better in the younger BHR group compared with the elderly BHR group, (96 vs. 94 p=0.008). There was no significant difference in recovery rates after surgery. There was a significantly higher rate of revision in women than men among the elderly patients (male= 1 of 65 (1.5%); women = 3 of 19 (15.8%), p=0.03). At latest follow-up the elderly patients continued to function well when compared with the younger BHR patients. There was a high mid to long term success rate after HR in patients who were 70 years of age or older, without the failure burden possibly anticipated. Elderly patients had a poorer functional outcome, but a difference in HHS of two points may be of only minor clinical significance.

Abstract
Aims In order to prevent dislocation of the hip after total hip arthroplasty (THA), patients have to adhere to precautions in the early post-operative period. The hypothesis of this study was that a protocol with minimal precautions after primary THA using the posterolateral approach would not increase the short-term (less than three months) risk of dislocation. Patients and Methods We prospectively monitored a group of unselected patients undergoing primary THA managed with standard precautions (n = 109, median age 68.9 years; interquartile range (IQR) 61.2 to 77.3) and a group who were managed with fewer precautions (n = 108, median age 67.2 years; IQR 59.8 to 73.2). There were no significant differences between the groups in relation to predisposing risk factors. The diameter of the femoral head ranged from 28 mm to 36 mm; meticulous soft-tissue repair was undertaken in all patients. The medical records were reviewed and all patients were contacted three months post-operatively to confirm whether they had experienced a dislocation. Results There were no dislocations in the less restricted group and one in the more restricted group (p = 0.32). Conclusion For experienced surgeons using the posterolateral approach at THA and femoral heads of diameter ≥ 28 mm, it appears safe to manage patients in the immediate post-operative period with minimal precautions to protect against dislocation. Larger studies with adequate statistical power are needed to verify this conclusion. Take home message: Experienced orthopaedic surgeons using the posterolateral approach for THA should not fear an increased dislocation rate if they manage their patients with a minimal precautions protocol.

Total Hip Arthroplasty Functional Outcomes Are Independent of Acetabular Component Orientation When a Polyethylene Liner Is Used. J Arthroplasty 2016; 31:830-834.e3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated patient-reported outcomes in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty with a polyethylene liner to determine the influence of cup orientation and other variables on patient-reported outcomes. METHODS A total of 477 cases were prospectively monitored through average 4.7 years follow-up. Cup position was measured on pelvis radiographs. Patients completed the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index and Short Form 12 Health Survey questionnaires. RESULTS Average cup abduction was 43.1° ± 7.5° and anteversion was 13.3° ± 7.5°. Three hundred cups were within the target zone. All outcomes' improvement from baseline and cup position was not an independent risk factor for the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index or Short Form 12 Health Survey improvement. CONCLUSION Accurate cup orientation may not be critical to maximizing patient-perceived outcomes if the combined anteversion is within a normal range, the hip joint is properly balanced, and a polyethylene liner is coupled with a metal or ceramic femoral head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation is a devastating complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and occurs in 2-5% of primary THA cases and 5-10% of revision THA cases. Assuming correct implantation, dislocation risk can be reduced primarily by capsular repair and the use of larger prosthetic heads. However, larger heads are also associated with risks like accelerated wear or implant loosening, which is why heads with a maximum diameter of 36 mm are currently standard in primary THA. In cases with high dislocation risk, the use of 40 mm and 44 mm heads should be considered. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to quantify THA dislocation risk and retrospectively analyze the course of disease in high-risk patients treated with 40 mm or 44 mm femoral heads after primary or revision THA, concerning dislocation and other complications suffered. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients with increased THA dislocation risk, treated from 2009-2014, were evaluated regarding dislocations. The cases with installation of 40 mm or 44 mm prosthetic heads were classified using a self-developed 5-level risk score and retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS During the observation period, 288 THA interventions with increased dislocation risk were performed. In 278 cases with ball diameters ≤ 36 mm the dislocation rate was 15.1% (n=42). In 10 high dislocation-risk cases (3A to 4B according to recommended scoring system), 40 mm and 44 mm heads were used. After a 22.8 month mean follow-up, no THA dislocations were reported. CONCLUSION Our results with 40 and 44 mm heads and the existing literature confirm much higher joint stability and, thus, significantly reduced dislocation risk with larger prosthetic heads in THA. Their use is, therefore, justified in high-risk patients and should be considered in future THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetabular component orientation influences joint stability in total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of cup orientation and other variables on hip dislocation risk and to define a posterior approach specific safe zone. METHODS A cohort of 1289 posterior approach primary THA cases was prospectively followed and component position measured radiographically. RESULTS Cup malposition, with respect to the Lewinnek safe zone, was an independent risk factor for dislocation (OR1.88). Modifying the anteversion safe zone limits to 10-25° strongly predicted increased dislocation risk (OR2.69). No dislocations occurred within a zone defined by a circle centered at 41.4° abduction and 17.1° anteversion, radius 4.3°. CONCLUSION Utilizing a posterior approach specific safe zone of 10-25° anteversion and 30-50° abduction may minimize THA dislocations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Double mobility cup systems (DMCS) have gained increasing acceptance, especially in patients at high risk for dislocation. The aim of this investigation was to analyze the frequency and indications of the DMCS use in our praxis and to evaluate dislocation and cup revision rates after a minimum follow-up of 2 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients implanted with a DMCS from May 2008 to August 2011 were identified from our institutional database of primary and revision THA procedures. Patient demographics, including ASA score, were recorded, along with details of the surgical procedures, indications for DMCS use, and post-operative clinical course and any complications. Radiographs were analyzed for implant positioning and radiological signs of loosening. RESULTS 1046 primary THA were implanted, of these 39 (4 %) primary DMCS. Indications were severe neuromuscular disease (SND) (14), hip abductor degeneration (HAD) (9), cognitive dysfunction (CD) (8) and others. 345 revision THA were performed, of these 50 (14 %) revision DMCS. Indications were recurrent dislocations (27), multiple prior hip surgeries (13), HAD (5), CD (3) and others. Overall dislocation rate was 2/89 (2 %); both in revision THA. Overall cup revision rate was 5/89 (6 %): 3 septic, 1 periprosthetic acetabular fracture, 1 "intraprosthetic dissociation". 67 patients were available for the standardized questionnaire at a median follow-up of 43 months (range 25-78). 19 patients were not available for two-year follow-up: 17 died and two were lost to follow-up. CONCLUSIONS This study supports the use of DMCS constructs in primary and revision hip arthroplasty for specific high-risk patients. We continue to indicate DMCS in this patient group. We do caution against extending indications for DMCS to lower risk patient groups due to unknown issues surrounding wear and component longevity.
