Daliri M, Moallem SMH, Sadeghi M, Dehghani M, Parsa A, Moradi A, Shahpari O, Ebrahimzadeh MH. Clinical Outcomes and Complications Following Hip Fusion Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:261-268.e36. [PMID: 37541602 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.07.021] [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: 04/16/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Efficacy, clinical outcomes, and complications following hip fusion conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery have been explored in several studies with controversial findings and no consensus. METHODS Comprehensive search of online databases was performed through December 2022 for prepost clinical trials using MeSH keywords. Harris hip score (HHS), leg length discrepancy (LLD), pain score, and range of motion (ROM) were considered as clinical outcomes along with implant survival and complications. The retrieved studies were assessed for methodologic quality. Weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using random effects meta-analysis taking into account for heterogeneity. Subgroup meta-analysis as well as sensitivity analysis were performed. RESULTS Findings of meta-analysis on 34 trials showed that HHS increase after THA (WMD: 42.3; 95% confidence interval (CI): 38 to 47). Subgroup analyses indicated that cementless prosthesis, length of arthrodesis <12 years, age <45 years, and studies with good quality have more HHS improvement. The LLD decreased 21 mm (95% CI: 19 to 24 mm) based on 21 trials. The range of motion (ROM) reached to 89 (95% CI: 84 to 95) for flexion, 32 (95% CI: 27 to 37) for abduction, 25 (95% CI: 21 to 29) for adduction, 29 (95% CI: 25 to 33) for external rotation, and 25 (95% CI: 20 to 31) for internal rotation after surgery. The most common complication was heterotopic ossification (14%). CONCLUSION Conversion of an ankylosed hip to THA leads to improved hip function and leg discrepancy with relatively notable rate of complications. Our findings could provide a framework to guide surgeons and decision makers.

J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:948. [PMID: 38071336 PMCID: PMC10710710 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04331-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional computed-tomography (3D-CT) planning for primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) typically uses the external femoral surface; as a result, it is difficult to predict the prosthetic femoral version (PFV) for uncemented femoral stems that press-fit to the internal surface of the bone. Cemented fixation allows the surgeon to adjust the version independent of the internal femoral anatomy. We aimed to better understand the effect of the fixation type on PFV. METHODS This was a case series study including a total of 95 consecutive patients (106 hips), who underwent uncemented (n = 81 hips) and cemented (n = 25 hips) primary THA using the posterior approach. The surgeon aimed for a PFV of 20°. Our primary objective was to compare PFV in both groups; our secondary objective was to evaluate the clinical outcomes. RESULTS The mean (± SD) PFV was 13° (± 9°) and 23° (± 8°) for the uncemented and cemented THA groups (P < 0.001), respectively. In the uncemented THA group, 36% of the patients had a PFV of < 10°. In the cemented THA group, this clinically important threshold dropped to 8%. Similarly, the Bland-Altman (BA) plots showed wider 95% limits of agreement for the uncemented group. Satisfactory clinical outcomes were recorded. CONCLUSION We found that the PFV was more clinically acceptable, for the posterior surgical approach, in the cemented group when compared to the uncemented group. Both THA groups reported high variability indicating the need to develop surgical tools to guide the PFV closer to the surgical target.

Perspective from a State-wide Quality Improvement Registry. J Arthroplasty 2023:S0883-5403(23)00361-3. [PMID: 37084923 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.04.016] [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: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 04/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, a state-wide registry identified fracture as a major cause of total hip arthroplasty revision. There were 52.8% of revisions occurring within 6 months (fracture leading cause). Registry sites have a 'Surgeon Champion' who acts as liaison and advocate. This study evaluated the effect of surgeon volume and role of 'surgeon champion' on fracture rates. METHODS There were 95,948 cases from 2012 to 2019 queried with peri-implant femoral fractures identified (within 6 months). Funnel plots were generated to compare individual surgeon-specific fracture rates. Surgeons who had a fracture rate below the confidence interval were labeled 'green' (lower than mean), within were 'yellow' (no difference), and above were 'red' (significantly higher). RESULTS For all surgeons, 19.6% were red, 72.1% yellow, and 8.3% green. There were 17.2% 'Surgeon Champions' and 6.2% 'Non-Champions' that were green (P=0.01), while 20.7 and 19.3% were red (P=0.82). There was a significant association between volume and performance (P<0.01). No surgeons in the lower two quartiles (<84; 84 to 180 cases), while 4 and 29% of higher-volume surgeons (181 to 404; >404 cases) were green. There was no statistical difference in red status by volume (P=0.53). CONCLUSION 'Surgeon champions' and high-volume surgeons were more likely to be high performers, but not less-likely to be low performers. Active involvement in quality improvement and/or high-volume was associated with better outcomes, but did not impart complication immunity. 'Green' surgeons should mentor colleagues to help reduce fractures by re-evaluating modifiable factors. Analyzing outcomes to promote quality and decrease complications is paramount.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early diagnosis of periprosthetic hip and knee infection still represents a major challenge, as no single test can achieve ideal results. Currently, multiple preoperative indicators were performed to diagnose periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) to confirm or exclude infection in the early stage. However, the diagnostic value of biopsy-related tests in diagnosing periprosthetic hip and knee infection remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Publications in PubMed, Embase, and the Web of Science databases were searched systematically until October 2020. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were used for screening biopsy-related studies of the diagnosis of periprosthetic hip and knee infection. RESULTS Three biopsy-related tests were identified in 14 articles and further analyzed in the present meta-analysis. The combined method had the highest value for the area under the curve (0.9805), followed by histology (0.9425) and microbiological tests (0.9292). In the subgroup, statistical differences were identified in sensitivity and specificity for PJI diagnosis between the synovial fluid culture and biopsy culture group, as well as in the biopsy-related combined method and serum C-reactive protein. CONCLUSIONS Biopsy culture does not appear to be advantageous compared to synovial fluid culture in the preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic hip and knee infection. In contrast, combined biopsy microbial culture with histology analysis shows great potential in improving the preoperative diagnosis of PJI. The standard procedure of biopsy needs to be further explored. Further research is required to verify our results.

Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is a widely performed operation allowing disabled patients to improve their quality of life to a degree greater than any other elective procedure. Planning for a THA requires adequate patient assessment and preoperative characterizations of acetabular bone loss via radiographs and specific classification schemes. Some surgeons may be inclined to ream at a larger diameter thinking it would lead to a more stable press-fit, but this could be detrimental to the acetabular wall, leading to intraoperative fracture. In the attempt to reduce the incidence of intraoperative fractures, the current study aims to identify how increased reaming diameter degrades and weakens the acetabular rim strength. We hypothesized that there is proportionality between the reaming diameter and the reduction in acetabular strength. To test this hypothesis, this study used bone surrogates, templated from CT scans, and reamed at different diameters. The obtained bone surrogate models were then tested using an Intron 8874 mechanical testing machine (Instron, Norwood, MA) equipped with a custom-made fixture. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to identify differences among reamed diameters while linear regression was used to identify the relationship between reamed diameters and acetabular strength. We found a moderate correlation between increasing reaming diameter that induced thinning of the acetabular wall and radial load damage. For the simplified acetabular model used in this study, it supported our hypothesis and is a promising first attempt in providing quantitative data for acetabular weakening induced by reaming.

Abstract
Templating plays a key role in surgery that is often underestimated. There is a difference between planning and templating: in the first not only the hip is considered but involves the evaluation of the patient in its entirety. Templating instead consists of calculating the position of the implant in order to place it in the best possible position. Fundamental is a correct X-ray of the pelvis, which must follow certain standards. For traditional templating, drawings on appropriately enlarged transparent implants were provided by the prosthesis manufacturer. The implementation of digital software into clinical practice has improved the accuracy and reproducibility of templating, which in most surgical units is performed by standard 2D radiographic images. Thanks to digital preoperative templating in a digital radiology environment, the hip reconstructive surgeon can perform preoperative planning and implant sizing quickly, consistently, and affordably. Currently, 3D templating can also be performed by software used initially to create personalized stems for THA. Aim of the current review is to outline the essentials of correct templating in THA performance, and to report the updates since the introduction of digital and 3D technologies in this setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) presents a greater risk to patients than primary THA, and surgical approach may impact outcomes. This study aimed to summarize acetabular revisions at our institution and to compare outcomes between direct anterior and posterior revision THA. METHODS A series of 379 acetabular revision THAs performed from January 2010 through August 2022 was retrospectively reviewed. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative factors were summarized for all revisions and compared between direct anterior and posterior revision THA. RESULTS The average time to acetabular revision THA was 10 years (range, 0.04 to 44.1), with mechanical failure (36.7%) and metallosis (25.6%) being the most prevalent reasons for revision. No differences in age, body mass index, or sex were noted between groups. Anterior revision patients had a significantly shorter length of stay (2.2 versus 3.2 days, P = .003) and rate of discharge to a skilled nursing facility (7.5 versus 25.2%, P = .008). In the 90-day postoperative period, 9.2% of patients returned to the emergency department (n = 35) and twelve patients (3.2%) experienced a dislocation. There were 13.2% (n = 50) of patients having a rerevision during the follow-up period with a significant difference between anterior and posterior approaches (3.8 versus 14.7%, respectively, P = .049). CONCLUSION This study provides some evidence that the anterior approach may be protective against skilled nursing facility discharge and rerevision and contributes to decreased lengths of stay. We recommend surgeons select the surgical approach for revision THA based on clinical preferences and patient factors.

Developing Patient-Specific Statistical Reconstructions of Healthy Anatomical Structures to Improve Patient Outcomes. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10020123.

Abstract
There are still numerous problems with modern joint replacement prostheses, which negatively influence patient health and recovery. For example, it is especially important to avoid failures and complications following hip arthroplasty because the loss of hip joint function is commonly associated with increased demand on the healthcare system, reoperation, loss of independence, physical disability, and death. The current study uses hip arthroplasty as a model system to present a new strategy of computationally generating patient-specific statistical reconstructions of complete healthy anatomical structures from computed tomography (CT) scans of damaged anatomical structures. The 3D model morphological data were evaluated from damaged femurs repaired with prosthetic devices and the respective damaged femurs that had been restored using statistical reconstruction. The results from all morphological measurements (i.e., maximum femoral length, Hausdorff distance, femoral neck anteversion, length of rotational center divergence, and angle of inclination) indicated that the values of femurs repaired with traditional prostheses did not fall within the +/-3 standard deviations of the respective patient-specific healthy anatomical structures. These results demonstrate that there are quantitative differences in the morphology of femurs repaired with traditional prostheses and the morphology of patient-specific statistical reconstructions. This approach of generating patient-specific statistical reconstructions of healthy anatomical structures might help to inform prosthetic designs so that new prostheses more closely resemble natural healthy morphology and preserve biomechanical function. Additionally, the patient-specific statistical reconstructions of healthy anatomical structures might be valuable for surgeons in that prosthetic devices could be selected and positioned to more accurately restore natural biomechanical function. All in all, this contribution establishes the novel approach of generating patient-specific statistical reconstructions of healthy anatomical structures from the CT scans of individuals' damaged anatomical structures to improve treatments and patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a less invasive and muscle-sparing approach that seems to improve early function and patient satisfaction. Several studies, however, have reported high complication and revision rates due to the technical difficulties related to the femoral preparation.
AIM To evaluate the usefulness and safety of a new stem equipped with a morphometric design and a size-specific medial curvature in DAA for THA.
METHODS This retrospective study was based on 130 patients that underwent mini-invasive DAA procedures for THA using the Accolade II stem. A total of 144 procedures were included in the assessment, which was based on postoperative complications, survival rates, functional parameters, and patient related outcomes.
RESULTS Overall complications were recorded in 6 procedures (4.2%). There were no complications related to the stem implantation and no intraoperative fractures. Only one patient was revised for deep infection. On radiographs, biomechanical hip reconstruction was satisfactory and no stem showed any subsidence greater than 2 mm. Full osseointegration based on Engh scores was seen in all of the implanted stems. Median Harris hip score at final follow-up was 99 points (range 44-100 points), which resulted excellent in 91.3% of patients. The median values of the osteaorthritis outcome score ranged from 87.5 to 95.
CONCLUSION The mid-term positive outcomes and low complication rate in our consecutive series of patients support the safety and suitability of this new stem design in DAA for THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Instability is a major cause of failure of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) which can be avoided with the use of monobloc press-fit cups with large diameter heads (LDH). OBJECTIVE This consecutive case series analyses whether LDH monobloc components are a safe and clinically beneficial option for revision THA. METHODS This consecutive case series includes 47 revision THA with LDH monobloc acetabular cup. Acetabular bone defects were Paprosky type I (42), type IIA (2) and type IIC (3). The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) and the Patient's Joint Perception (PJP) scores were analysed and a radiographic evaluation for signs of implant dysfunction was performed. RESULTS After a mean follow-up of 4.5 years, there were 5 (10.6%) acetabular cup re-revisions: 2 loss of primary fixation and 3 instabilities. Implant survivorship at 4-years was 89.4% (95% CI: 89.3 to 89.5). Recurrent hip dislocation was reported in 1 patient (2.1%) and remains under conservative treatment. The mean WOMAC and FJS were 19.5 (16.8; 0.0 to 58.3) and 57.3 (28.9; 6.3 to 100.0), respectively. Regarding the PJP, 3 (8.8%) patients perceived their hip as natural, 8 (23.5%) as an artificial joint with no restriction, 14 (41.2%) with minor restriction and 9 (26.5%) with major restriction. CONCLUSION In cases of revision THA with limited bone loss, press-fit primary fixation with LDH monobloc acetabular components are valuable options that offer excellent mid-term out-comes with low re-revision and joint instability rates.

Abstract
Objective Total hip arthroplasty (THA) affects pelvic posture and spinal alignment. These postural changes may further predispose patients to mechanical complications (MCs) after THA. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review to investigate whether any high-quality studies have assessed the association between sagittal spinal alignment and MCs after primary THA. Methods Inclusion criteria for studies were adult patients (age ≥18 years), primary THA, pre- and postoperative spinopelvic standing sagittal radiographs acquired preoperatively and at a minimum of 6-month follow-up, measurements of spinopelvic parameters, and reporting of possible MCs after THA. The review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Results Six articles met the inclusion criteria. Although several studies confirmed the importance of spinal alignment when planning THA, these mainly investigated pelvic mobility as a risk factor for THA dislocation. Radiological follow-up imaging practices varied, and studies focused on different individual spinopelvic parameters. Conclusion Based on our study findings, no conclusions can be drawn regarding the association between sagittal spinal alignment and MCs after primary THA. Further research is needed to improve our knowledge of the connection between MCs after THA and sagittal spinal alignment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While total hip arthroplasty (THA) is extremely successful, early failures do occur. The purpose of this study was to determine the cause of revision in specific patient demographic groups at 3 time points to potentially help decrease the revision risk. METHODS Data for cases performed between 2012 and 2018 from a statewide, quality improvement arthroplasty registry were used. The database included 79,205 THA cases and 1,433 revisions with identified etiology (1,584 in total). All revisions performed at <5 years from the primary THA were reviewed. Six groups, men/women, <65, 65-75, and >75 years, were compared at revision time points <6 months, <1 year, and <5 years. RESULTS There were obvious and significant differences between subgroups based on demographics and time points (P < .0001). Seven hundred and fifty-six (53%) of all revisions occurred within 6 months. The most common etiologies within 6 months (756 revisions) were fracture (316, 41.8%), dislocation/instability (194, 25.7%), and infection (98, 12.9%). At this early time point, the most common revision cause was fracture for all age/gender-stratified groups, ranging from 27.6% in young men to 60% in older women. Joint instability became the leading cause for revision after 1 year in all groups. CONCLUSION This quality improvement project demonstrated clinically meaningful differences in the reason for THA revision between gender, age, and time from surgery. Strategies based on these data should be employed by surgeons to minimize the factors that lead to revision.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether more precise cup positioning can be achieved with robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) as compared to conventional THA. METHODS In this study, between July 2019 and May 2021, 93 patients aged 23-75 years with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and adult developmental dysplasia of hip who underwent first hip surgery were included in the study. They were randomly assigned to either the robotic-assisted THA group (n = 45) or the conventional THA group (n = 48). After the operation, all patients were given routine rapid rehabilitation guidance. The duration of operation was recorded to estimate the learning curve through cumulative summation analysis. We compared the demographics, duration of operation, cup positioning, leg length discrepancy, hip offset, and Harris Hip Score between robot-assisted THA and manual THA. Precision in the positioning of the acetabular prosthesis using the MAKO system was also compared between the two groups. RESULTS The mean duration of operation for the robot-assisted THA group was 91.37 ± 17.34 min (range: 63 to 135 min), which was significantly higher than that for the conventional THA group. When the number of procedures was increased to 13, the duration of operation in the robot-assisted group decreased significantly and gradually became stable. In terms of duration of operation, robot-assisted THA was associated with a learning curve of 13 cases. The mean amount of bleeding in the robot-assisted THA group was not significantly different from that in conventional THA group (328 ± 210 ml vs 315 ± 205 ml) (p = 0.741). There was no significant difference in the proportion of prostheses located within Lewinnek's safe zone between robot-assisted THA group and conventional THA group (69.81% vs 64.41%). The leg length discrepancy (LLD) was significantly smaller in the robot-assisted THA group than in the conventional THA group (p < 0.001), but both were within acceptable limits (10 mm). The inclination and anteversion angles of the acetabular prosthesis planned before operations were correlated with the actual measurement (r = 0.857 p < 0.001, r = 0.830, p < 0.001). After surgery, none of the patients experienced hip dislocation, aseptic loosening, or periprosthetic infection during the 3 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION The proportion of acetabular prostheses in the Lewinnek's safety zone was higher and the extent of LLD was significantly lower in the robot-assisted THA group, as compared to the same metrics in the conventional THA group. The MAKO robot improved the accuracy of implant placement in THA.

Abstract
The potential of ultrafast lasers (pico- to femtosecond) in orthopedics-related procedures has been studied extensively for clinical adoption. As compared to conventional laser systems with continuous wave or longer wave pulse, ultrafast lasers provide advantages such as higher precision and minimal collateral thermal damages. Translation to surgical applications in the clinic has been restrained by limitations of material removal rate and pulse average power, whereas the use in surface texturing of implants has become more refined to greatly improve bioactivation and osteointegration within bone matrices. With recent advances, we review the advantages and limitations of ultrafast lasers, specifically in orthopedic bone ablation as well as bone implant laser texturing, and consider the difficulties encountered within orthopedic surgical applications where ultrafast lasers could provide a benefit. We conclude by proposing our perspectives on applications where ultrafast lasers could be of advantage, specifically due to the non-thermal nature of ablation and control of cutting.

Abstract
The primary fixation and long-term stability of a cementless femoral implant depend on bone ingrowth within the porous coating. Although attempts were made to quantify the peri-implant bone ingrowth using the finite element (FE) analysis and mechanoregulatory principles, the tissue differentiation patterns on a porous-coated hip stem have scarcely been investigated. The objective of this study is to predict the spatial distribution of evolutionary bone ingrowth around an uncemented hip stem, using a three-dimensional (3D) multiscale mechanobiology-based numerical framework. Multiple load cases representing a variety of daily living activities, including walking, stair climbing, sitting down, and standing up from a chair, were used as applied loading conditions. The study accounted for the local variations in host bone material properties and implant-bone relative displacements of the macroscale implanted FE model, in order to predict bone ingrowth in microscale representative volume elements (RVEs) of 12 interfacial regions. In majority RVEs, 20-70% bone tissue (immature and mature) was predicted after 2 months, contributing toward a progressive increase in average Young's modulus (1200-3000 MPa) of the interbead tissue layer. Higher bone ingrowth (mostly greater than 60%) was predicted in the anterolateral regions of the implant, as compared to the posteromedial side (20-50%). New bone tissue was formed deeper inside the interbead spacing, adhering to the implant surface. The study helps to gain an insight into the degree of osseointegration of a porous-coated femoral implant.

Abstract
The disruption of bone homeostasis with the decrease in osteoblastic bone formation and facilitated osteoclastic bone resorption is the leading cause of periprosthetic osteolysis. Accumulative studies have indicated that irisin has the function of maintaining and rebalancing bone homeostasis. In this study, we explored the protective effect of irisin on wear-particle-induced osteolysis in mice. The results showed that irisin effectively inhibited titanium (Ti) particle-induced calvarial osteolysis, supported by a lower bone loss and existence of more collagen, compared with the ones stressed by Ti particles. Further analysis demonstrated that irisin not only rescued Ti-particle-impaired osteogenesis derived from bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) but also alleviated the increase in wear-particle-induced nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) secreted by BMSCs-derived osteoblasts, which consequently restrained the activation of osteoclasts. Meanwhile, irisin inhibited osteoclastogenesis by the direct inactivation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling. These results revealed that irisin functions to fight against osteolysis caused by wear particles through rebalancing the periprosthetic bone homeostasis microenvironment, which may provide a potential therapeutic strategy for the management of osteolysis and induced prosthetic loosening.

Curculigoside Protects against Titanium Particle-Induced Osteolysis through the Enhancement of Osteoblast Differentiation and Reduction of Osteoclast Formation. J Immunol Res 2021; 2021:5707242. [PMID: 34285923 PMCID: PMC8275416 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5707242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is mainly responsible for joint replacement failure and revision surgery. Curculigoside is reported to have bone-protective potential, but whether curculigoside attenuates wear particle-induced osteolysis remains unclear. In this study, titanium particles (Ti) were used to stimulate osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in the presence or absence of curculigoside, to determine their effect on osteoblast differentiation. Rat osteoclastic bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were cocultured with Ti in the presence or absence of curculigoside, to evaluate its effect on osteoclast formation in vitro. Ti was also used to stimulate mouse calvaria to induce an osteolysis model, and curculigoside was administrated to evaluate its effect in the osteolysis model by micro-CT imaging and histopathological analyses. As the results indicated, in MC3T3-E1 cells, curculigoside treatment attenuated the Ti-induced inhibition on cell differentiation and apoptosis, increased alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and cell mineralization, and inhibited TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production and ROS generation. In BMSCs, curculigoside treatment suppressed the Ti-induced cell formation and suppressed the TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production and F-actin ring formation. In vivo, curculigoside attenuated Ti-induced bone loss and histological damage in murine calvaria. Curculigoside treatment also reversed the RANK/RANKL/OPG and NF-κB signaling pathways, by suppressing the RANKL and NF-κB expression, while activating the OPG expression. Our study demonstrated that curculigoside treatment was able to attenuate wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis in in vivo and in vitro experiments, promoted osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation, and inhibited osteoclast BMSC formation. It suggests that curculigoside may be a potential pharmaceutical agent for wear particle-stimulated osteolysis therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To clarify contemporary indications for first-time revision surgery after primary cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) for addressing potential issues with cementless THA. METHODS Data for 101 consecutive hips in 94 patients who underwent primary cementless THA at our institution and subsequently underwent first-time revision surgery were retrospectively reviewed. Baseline characteristics, indications for first-time revision surgery, and time from the primary THA to first-time revision surgery were evaluated. RESULTS The overall mean time to first-time revision surgery was 10.3 years (range, 0-33 years). The indications for first-time revision surgery were polyethylene wear and osteolysis in 33 hips, aseptic loosening in 25 hips, infection in 17 hips, periprosthetic fracture in 13 hips, instability in 8 hips, and component failure (liner dissociation or stem fracture) in 5 hips. Thirty-seven hips (37%) had undergone first-time revision surgery within 5 years of primary THA, of which the most common indications were infection and periprosthetic fracture. CONCLUSION The current results suggested that reducing the number of early failures seems to be essential form improving THA outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION No significant regression has been reported in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) rates despite substantial progress in implant technologies and surgical techniques. It is critical to investigate how patient demographics, THA indications, surgical techniques, types of implants, and other factors influence the frequency of early and late revision surgery. The main purpose of the present study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and 10-year survival rates of revision hip arthroplasties among revision time groups. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical data of 396 patients who underwent revision hip arthroplasty between 2005 and 2011 were evaluated in this multi-centre study. Patients were assigned to one of four revision time groups based on the interval between the index hip arthroplasty and the revision surgery (< 2, 2-5, 5-10, and > 10 years). RESULTS There were significant differences among revision time groups in terms of aetiology for primary hip arthroplasty, indications for revision hip arthroplasty, and types of revision procedures. Patients with hip dysplasia more frequently received revision hip arthroplasty within 2 years in contrast to those with osteoarthritis. Revision hip arthroplasties due to periprosthetic infection and instability were conducted earlier compared to aseptic loosening. The overall 10-year survival rate of revision hip arthroplasty was 83.2%, and it was highest for the very early revisions (< 2 years). CONCLUSIONS According to our results, early revision hip arthroplasty was found to be mostly dependent on surgery-related factors rather than demographic factors. On the other hand, we observed that survival rates of very early revision hip arthroplasties are higher than late revision hip arthroplasties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Femoral neck fractures (FNFs), with up to 15% mortality, are prominent orthopaedic emergencies. After treating FNFs, dislocation is another challenge increasing morbidity, mortality and treatment costs substantially. The emerging dual-mobility cup (DMC) may decrease dislocation rates following total hip arthroplasty (THA) for FNFs. We performed a systematic review of literature reporting dislocation and mortality rates with DMC-THA for the treatment of FNFs. METHODS 2 authors independently searched PubMed (MEDLINE), Google Scholar and Cochrane library for studies reporting dislocation and mortality rates for FNFs treated with DMC-THA since inception up to January 2019. Data on outcomes of interest was extracted from all studies and assessed for eligibility for a meta-analysis. RESULTS Out of 522 search results, 18 studies were included in the systematic review and 4 in the meta-analysis. The mean rate of dislocation following DMC-THA for FNFs was found to be 1.87% ± 2.11, with a 1-year mortality rate of 14.0% ± 10.55. Results of meta-analysis showed that dislocation and 1-year postoperative mortality rates were significantly lower for DMC-THA with a risk ratio 0.31 (95% CI, 0.16-0.59; I2 = 0%, p = 0.0003) and 0.55 (0.40, 0.77; I2 = 0%, p = 0.003) respectively when compared to biploar hemiathroplasty (BHA). CONCLUSIONS The mean dislocation and mortality rates in DMC-THA are lower than previously reported rates for THA with single cup and comparable to unipolar and bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Further research involving randomised control trials to assess differences in outcomes, longevity and cost-effectiveness needs to be conducted to make recommendations for the use of DMC in treating FNFs.

Abstract
While advanced technology, increased medical knowledge and improved surgical technique has improved patient outcomes in total joint arthroplasty, prosthetic joint infection still remains one of the leading causes of increased healthcare costs, medical resources and societal burdens in orthopaedic care. Two stage arthroplasty revision remains the gold standard for treatment of prosthetic joint infection. Proponents of single stage revision arthroplasty for infection argue that it results in lower healthcare costs while improving patient reported functional outcomes and with equivalent success rates. Here we review the history of single stage revision arthroplasty, discuss the key principles, highlight the indications and contraindications, and review the reported outcomes with a focus on future developments of single stage revision arthroplasty for hip and knee periprosthetic joint infections.

Abstract
Total hip replacement is a widespread medical procedure, with over 300,000 surgeries performed each year in the United States alone. The vast majority of total hip replacements utilize press fit fixation. Successful seating of the implant requires a delicate balance between inserting the implant deep enough to obtain sufficient primary stability, while avoiding fracture of bone. To improve patient outcomes, surgeons need assistive technologies that can guide them as to how much force to apply and when to stop impacting. The development of such technology, however, requires a greater understanding of the forces experienced in bone and the resulting cup insertion and implant stability. Here, we present a preliminary study of acetabular cup insertion into bone proxy samples. We find that as the magnitude of force on the acetabular cup increases, cup insertion and axial extraction force increase linearly, then nonlinearly, and finally plateau with full insertion. Within the small nonlinear zone, approximately 90% of both cup insertion and extraction force are achieved with only 50% total energy required for full seating, posing the question as to whether full seating is an appropriate goal in press-fit arthroplasty. For repeated impacts of a given energy, cup displacement and force experienced in bone (measured force profile—MFP) increase correspondingly and reach a plateau over a certain number of impacts (number of impacts to seating—NOITS), which represents the rate of insertion. The relationship between MFP and NOITS can be exploited to develop a force feedback mechanism to quantitatively infer optimal primary implant stability.

Abstract
Objective To introduce a modified osteotomy method for proximal femur reconstruction (PFR) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for high developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Method A retrospective study was performed in a series of 24 patients (26 hips) with Crowe III/IV DDH who underwent THA and simultaneous PFR. We used an animated video to illustrate and help understand the procedure for this technique. Patients were reviewed clinically and radiographically with an average follow‐up of 31 months. The Harris hip score (HHS) was recorded preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Results All patients achieved primary bone union. No revision was needed up to the latest follow‐up. One patient had a dislocation due to self‐fall and received manual reduction under general anesthesia. No patient had intraoperative femoral fractures, sciatic nerve injury, or infection. The mean HHS improved from 33.48 ± 9.06 preoperatively to 84.61 ± 4.78 immediately after surgery and 90.84 ± 4.96 at 12 months. Conclusion Proximal femur reconstruction is a simple and practical technique for femoral remolding during THA in patients with high DDH.

Abstract
Background/objective Orthopaedic implants are important devices aimed at relieving pain and improving mobility. Staphylococcal infection and aseptic loosening are two common events associated with inflammatory osteolysis that lead to implant failures. Bone mass and biomechanical properties are important indicators that could influence patient outcomes after revision surgery. However, the dynamics of bacterial infections and their influence on bone mass and biomechanical properties remain unclear. Hence, in this study, we developed rabbit aseptic inflammation and staphylococcal infection models to determine the effects of coagulase-positive and coagulase-negative bacterial infection, as well as aseptic inflammation, on the mass and biomechanical properties of the bone. Methods Sixty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to 6 groups, and each group had 10 rabbits. The medullary cavities in rabbits of each group were injected with phosphate-buffered saline (100 μL), titanium (Ti)-wear particles (300 μg/100 μL), a low concentration of Staphylococcus epidermidis (105/100 μL), a high concentration of S. epidermidis (108/100 μL), a low concentration of Staphylococcus aureus (105/100 μL), and a high concentration of S. aureus (108/100 μL), respectively. At four and eight weeks after surgery, the rabbits were sacrificed, and the tibias on the surgical side were analysed via histopathology, microcomputed tomography, and nanoindentation testing. Results Histopathological analysis demonstrated that inflammatory responses and bacterial loads caused by high concentrations of staphylococcal infections, particularly coagulase-positive staphylococci, are more detrimental than low concentrations of bacterial infection and Ti-wear particles. Meanwhile, microcomputed tomography and nanoindentation testing showed that high concentrations of S. aureus caused the highest loss in bone mass and most biomechanical function impairment in rabbits experiencing aseptic inflammation and staphylococcal infections. Conclusions Inflammatory osteolysis caused by a high concentration of coagulase-positive staphylococci is significantly associated with low bone mass and impaired biomechanical properties. The translational potential of this article It is necessary to obtain an overall assessment of the bone mass and biomechanical properties before revision surgery, especially when S. aureus infection is involved. In addition, a better understanding of these two parameters might help develop a reasonable treatment regimen and reduce the risk of adverse events after revision surgery.

Aspirin Thromboprophylaxis Confers No Increased Risk for Aseptic Loosening Following Cementless Primary Hip Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2019; 34:2978-2982. [PMID: 31383492 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2019.07.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2019] [Revised: 07/06/2019] [Accepted: 07/10/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin has been shown to be a safe and cost-effective thromboprophylaxis agent with equivalent preventive efficacy to warfarin and fewer side-effects. However, animal studies have suggested delayed bone healing with aspirin and other inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis. The impact of aspirin on aseptic loosening following cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) has yet to be explored. Our aim was to determine if patients receiving aspirin for thromboprophylaxis had higher rates of aseptic loosening vs patients receiving warfarin after THA. METHODS We identified 11,262 consecutive primary uncemented THA performed between 2006 and 2017. Postoperatively, either warfarin (target international normalized ratio 1.5-2.0) or aspirin chemoprophylaxis were prescribed for 4 weeks. We recorded demographics, length of stay, body mass index, preoperative nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug use, and Elixhauser comorbidity index. All revisions because of aseptic loosening within 1 year of the index procedure were identified radiographically, confirmed intraoperatively, and did not fulfill Musculoskeletal Infection Society criteria for periprosthetic infection. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. RESULTS There was no difference (P = .14) in the rates of revision for aseptic loosening between patients in the aspirin cohort (14/4530; 0.31%; P = .14) and the warfarin cohort (36/6682; 0.54%). After accounting for confounding variables, no significant difference was noted in aseptic loosening rates between patients treated with aspirin vs those treated with warfarin (adjusted odds ratio 0.51; P = .11). Perioperative nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug was not significantly associated with aseptic loosening (adjusted odds ratio 1.20; P = .67). CONCLUSION While multiple agents are available for venous thromboprophylaxis, there is increasing evidence in favor of the use of aspirin. This study allays the notion that aspirin increases the rates of aseptic loosening following uncemented hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As revision implants and techniques have evolved and improved, understanding why contemporary revision total hip arthroplasties (THAs) fail is important to direct further improvement and innovation. As such, the goals of this study are to determine the implant survivorship of contemporary revision THAs, as well as the most common indications for re-revision. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 2589 aseptic revision THAs completed at our academic institution between 2005 and 2015 through our total joint registry. Thirty-nine percent were isolated acetabular revisions, 22% isolated femoral revisions, 18% both component revisions, and 21% head/liner component exchanges. The mean age at index revision THA was 66 years, and 46% were male. The indications for the index revision THA were aseptic loosening (21% acetabular, 15% femoral, 5% both components), polyethylene wear and osteolysis (18%), instability (13%), fracture (11%), and other (17%). Mean follow-up was 6 years. RESULTS There were 211 re-revision THAs during the study period. The overall survivorship free of any re-revision at 2, 5, and 10 years was 94%, 92%, and 88%, respectively. The most common reasons for re-revision were hip instability (52%), peri-prosthetic fracture (11%), femoral aseptic loosening (11%), acetabular aseptic loosening (9%), infection (6%), polyethylene wear (3%), and other (8%). CONCLUSION Compared to historical series, the 88% survivorship free of any re-revision at 10 years in a revision cohort at a referral center is notably improved. As implant fixation has improved, aseptic loosening has become much less common after revision THA, and instability has come to account for more than half of re-revisions.

Abstract
Introduction Cup position is critical to stability in total hip arthroplasty and is affected by pelvis motion during positions of daily life. The purpose of this study was to explicitly define the relationship between sagittal pelvic motion and resultant cup functional anteversion and create a tool to guide the surgeon to a patient-specific intra-operative anteversion. Materials and Methods 10,560 combinations of inclination, anteversion, and pelvic tilt were generated using a geometric model. Resultant functional anteversion was calculated for each iteration and variables were correlated. An electronic mobile tool was created that compares inputted patient-specific values to population-based averages to determine pelvic positions and dynamics that may lead to instability. Results A third-degree polynomial equation was used to describe the relationship between variables. The freely downloadable mobile tool uses input from pre-operative plain radiographic measurements to provide the surgeon a quantitative correction to intra-operative cup anteversion based on differences in functional anteversion compared to population-based averages. Conclusion This study provides a geometric relationship between planned cup position, pelvic position and motion, and the resultant functional anteversion. This mathematical model was applied to an electronic tool that seeks to determine an individualized intra-operative cup anteversion based on measured patient-specific pelvic dynamics.

Abstract
Coronal plane deformity following total ankle arthroplasty has been associated with poor clinical outcomes and early prosthesis failure. Neutral mechanical alignment and prosthetic joint stability must be achieved through meticulous surgical planning and precise technical execution. Cavovarus foot deformity and varus malalignment of the lower extremity is reviewed, with particular emphasis as it relates to total ankle arthroplasty. Correction of varus malalignment may be performed at the time of total ankle arthroplasty or as a 2-stage procedure. Surgeon experience, revision total ankle arthroplasty, and subtalar arthrodesis should be considerations when contemplating 2-stage varus correction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual-mobility (DM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) systems are designed to increase stability while potentially avoiding problems associated with large femoral heads. Complications of these systems are not yet fully understood. This study aims at characterizing in vivo performance of DM hip systems and assessing modes of clinical failure. METHODS Under an institutional review board-approved implant retrieval protocol, 18 DM THA systems from 17 patients were included. Implants were graded at the head-neck junction for fretting and corrosion based on the system of Goldberg et al. Components were also macroscopically examined for different damage modes. Demographics and surgical data were collected from medical records, and radiographs were assessed for component positioning. Data were analyzed through Spearman rank-order correlation and Mann-Whitney U-tests, with α = 0.05. RESULTS The average length of implantation was 13.4 months with mild to moderate fretting corrosion damage. Polyethylene (PE) liners exhibited edge deformation, scratching, and pitting damage. Metallic components exhibited burnishing and scratching damage. Summed fretting and corrosion scores were strongly correlated (ρ = 0.967, P < .0001). Summed corrosion score was moderately correlated with presence of embedding on the PE liner (ρ = 0.690, P = .017). PE liner abrasion and edge deformation of the femoral stem taper were moderately positively correlated (ρ = 0.690, P = .017). Fretting and corrosion damage were not significantly correlated with patient demographics or radiographic positioning of implants. There were no differences in scores between modular and monoblock designs. CONCLUSION These findings demonstrate that dual-mobility THA systems may be susceptible to the same fretting and corrosion damage observed in traditional modular THA systems. Future studies are needed to confirm these results and clinical significance.

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.

Abstract
The longevity of metal-on-polyethylene prosthetic hip implant bearings, in which a polished CoCrMo femoral head articulates with a polyethylene liner, is limited by mechanical instability or inflammation resulting from osteolysis caused by polyethylene wear debris. We use pin-on-disc experiments to measure friction and wear of a polyethylene pin that articulates with different microtextured CoCrMo surfaces, covering a wide range of operating conditions including sliding velocity and contact pressure. We determine how the lubrication regime changes as a function of operating conditions, and show that the microtexture accelerates the transition from boundary to elastohydrodynamic lubrication. Additionally, we illustrate that the microtexture could enable tailoring the hip implant to the specific patient needs based on activity level, gender, and age.

One-stage exchange with antibacterial hydrogel coated implants provides similar results to two-stage revision, without the coating, for the treatment of peri-prosthetic infection. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2018; 26:3362-3367.

Abstract
PURPOSE Aim of this study was to verify the hypothesis that a one-stage exchange procedure, performed with an antibiotic-loaded, fast-resorbable hydrogel coating, provides similar infection recurrence rate than a two-stage procedure without the coating, in patients affected by peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI). METHODS In this two-center case-control, study, 22 patients, treated with a one-stage procedure, using implants coated with an antibiotic-loaded hydrogel [defensive antibacterial coating (DAC)], were compared with 22 retrospective matched controls, treated with a two-stage revision procedure, without the coating. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 29.3 ± 5.0 months, two patients (9.1%) in the DAC group showed an infection recurrence, compared to three patients (13.6%) in the two-stage group. Clinical scores were similar between groups, while average hospital stay and antibiotic treatment duration were significantly reduced after one-stage, compared to two-stage (18.9 ± 2.9 versus 35.8 ± 3.4 and 23.5 ± 3.3 versus 53.7 ± 5.6 days, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Although in a relatively limited series of patients, our data shows similar infection recurrence rate after one-stage exchange with DAC-coated implants, compared to two-stage revision without coating, with reduced overall hospitalization time and antibiotic treatment duration. These findings warrant further studies in the possible applications of antibacterial coating technologies to treat implant-related infections. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

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
BACKGROUND In an era of innovation in surgical approaches for total hip arthroplasty (THA), there is concern for increasing trends of early failure. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of early failure of primary THA stratified by surgical approach. METHODS A retrospective review was performed on consecutive primary THAs completed from 2007 to 2014 at a high-volume center. THAs were stratified by surgical approach. Only the direct anterior (DAA) and posterior approaches (PA) were included. The primary outcome measure was early revision (<5 years). Descriptive statistics were performed using SAS software. RESULTS In total, 6894 primary THAs performed between 2007 and 2014 were included. Across 2431 DAA THAs and 4463 PA THAs, there were 103 revisions overall. There was no difference in the overall revision rate for DAA THAs (1.69%) compared to PA THAs (1.39%) (P = .33). The DAA had a higher rate of early revisions for femoral component loosening compared to the PA (P = .0003). About 35.7% of DAA THAs were revised for femoral loosening compared to 8% for the PA (P = .0003). Early failure by femoral loosening occurred more often via the DAA in Dorr A bone (P = .03). The PA had a higher incidence of revision for instability (P = .04). There was no difference in modes of failure with regards to time to failure, acetabular loosening, early periprosthetic fracture, or infection. CONCLUSION The DAA had a higher incidence of femoral loosening while PA had a higher mode of failure due to instability. Overall revision rates were not statistically different between approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aseptic loosening is a main cause for revision surgery after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and there is no reliable marker for the early detection of patients at high risk. This study has been performed to validate association of the T393C polymorphism (rs7121) in the GNAS1 gene, encoding for the alpha-subunit of heterotrimeric G-protein Gs, with risk for and time to aseptic loosening after THA, which has been demonstrated in our previous study. METHODS 231 patients with primary THA and 234 patients suffering from aseptic loosening were genotyped for dependency on GNAS1 genotypes and analyzed. RESULTS Genotyping revealed almost similar minor allele frequencies of 0.49 and 0.46, respectively. Consistently, genotype distributions of both groups were not significantly different (p = 0.572). Neither gender nor GNAS1 genotype showed a statistically significant association with time to loosening (p = 0.501 and p = 0.840). Stratification by gender, as performed in our previous study, was not able to show a significant genotype-dependent difference in time (female p = 0.313; male p = 0.584) as well as median time to aseptic loosening (female p = 0.353; male p = 0.868). CONCLUSION This study was not able to confirm the results of our preliminary study. An association of the GNAS1 T393C polymorphisms with risk for and time to aseptic loosening after THA is unlikely.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is estimated that the cost to treat periprosthetic joint infection in the United States will approach $1.62 billion by 2020. Thus, the need to better understand the pathogenesis of periprosthetic joint infection is evident. We performed a population-based, retrospective cohort study to determine if familial clustering of periprosthetic joint infection was observed. METHODS Analyses were conducted using software developed at the Utah Population Database (UPDB) in conjunction with the software package R. The cohort was obtained by querying the UPDB for all patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty and for those patients who had subsequent periprosthetic joint infection. The magnitude of familial risk was estimated by hazard ratios (HRs) from Cox regression models to assess the relative risk of periprosthetic joint infection in relatives and spouses. Using percentiles for age strata, we adjusted for sex, body mass index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m, and a history of smoking, diabetes, and/or end-stage renal disease. Additionally, we identified families with excess clustering of periprosthetic joint infection above that expected in the population using the familial standardized incidence ratio. RESULTS A total of 66,985 patients underwent total joint arthroplasty and 1,530 patients (2.3%) had a periprosthetic joint infection. The risk of periprosthetic joint infection following total joint arthroplasty was elevated in first-degree relatives (HR, 2.16 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.29 to 3.59]) and combined first and second-degree relatives (HR, 1.79 [95% CI, 1.22 to 2.62]). Further, 116 high-risk pedigrees with a familial standardized incidence ratio of >2 and a p value of <0.05 were identified and 9 were selected for genotyping studies based on the observed periprosthetic joint infection/total joint arthroplasty ratio and visual inspection of the pedigrees for lack of excessive comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS Although preliminary, these data may help to guide further genetic research associated with periprosthetic joint infections. An understanding of familial risks could lead to new discoveries in creating patient-centered pathways for infection prevention in patients at risk. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level III.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this systematic review was to report the rate of dislocation following the use of dual mobility (DM) acetabular components in primary and revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review of the literature according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines was performed. A comprehensive search of Pubmed/Medline, Cochrane Library and Embase (Scopus) was conducted for English articles between January 1974 and March 2016 using various combinations of the keywords "dual mobility", "dual-mobility", "tripolar", "double-mobility", "double mobility", "hip", "cup", "socket". The following data were extracted by two investigators independently: demographics, whether the operation was a primary or revision THA, length of follow-up, the design of the components, diameter of the femoral head, and type of fixation of the acetabular component. RESULTS In all, 59 articles met our inclusion criteria. These included a total of 17 908 THAs which were divided into two groups: studies dealing with DM components in primary THA and those dealing with these components in revision THA. The mean rate of dislocation was 0.9% in the primary THA group, and 3.0% in the revision THA group. The mean rate of intraprosthetic dislocation was 0.7% in primary and 1.3% in revision THAs. CONCLUSION Based on the current data, the use of DM acetabular components are effective in minimising the risk of instability after both primary and revision THA. This benefit must be balanced against continuing concerns about the additional modularity, and the new mode of failure of intraprosthetic dislocation. Longer term studies are needed to assess the function of these newer materials compared with previous generations. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2017;99-B(1 Supple A):18-24.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The direct anterior approach for total hip arthroplasty (THA) is marketed with claims of superiority over other approaches. Femoral exposure can be technically challenging and potentially lead to early failure. We examined whether surgical approach is associated with early THA failure. METHODS A retrospective review of 478 consecutive early revision THAs performed within 5 years after the primary THAs at 3 academic centers from 2011 through 2014 was carried out. Exclusion criteria resulted in a final analysis sample of 342 early-failure THAs. The surgical approach of the primary operation that was revised, the time to the revision, and the etiology of the failure leading to the revision were documented. RESULTS Analysis of the revisions due to early femoral failure showed them to be more common in patients who had undergone the direct anterior approach (57/112; 50.9%) than in those treated with the direct lateral (39/112; 34.8%) or the posterior (16/112; 14.3%) approach (p = 0.001). In multivariate regression analysis controlling for age, sex, laterality, Dorr bone type, body mass index (BMI) at revision, bilateral procedure (yes/no), and femoral stem type, the direct anterior approach remained a significant predictor of early femoral failure (p = 0.007). The majority of early revisions due to instability were associated with the posterior (19/40; 47.5%) or direct anterior (15/40; 37.5%) approach (p = 0.001 for the comparison with the direct lateral approach [6/40; 15.0%]). CONCLUSIONS Despite claims of earlier recovery and improved outcomes with the direct anterior approach for THA, our findings indicate that that approach may confer a greater risk of early femoral failure and, along with the posterior approach, confer a greater risk of early instability compared with the direct lateral approach.

Abstract
Recently, there is a growing interest in surgical variables that are intraoperatively controlled by orthopaedic surgeons, including lower leg alignment, component positioning and soft tissues balancing. Since more tight control over these factors is associated with improved outcomes of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), several computer navigation and robotic-assisted systems have been developed. Although mechanical axis accuracy and component positioning have been shown to improve with computer navigation, no superiority in functional outcomes has yet been shown. This could be explained by the fact that many differences exist between the number and type of surgical variables these systems control. Most systems control lower leg alignment and component positioning, while some in addition control soft tissue balancing. Finally, robotic-assisted systems have the additional advantage of improving surgical precision. A systematic search in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library resulted in 40 comparative studies and three registries on computer navigation reporting outcomes of 474,197 patients, and 21 basic science and clinical studies on robotic-assisted knee arthroplasty. Twenty-eight of these comparative computer navigation studies reported Knee Society Total scores in 3504 patients. Stratifying by type of surgical variables, no significant differences were noted in outcomes between surgery with computer-navigated TKA controlling for alignment and component positioning versus conventional TKA (p = 0.63). However, significantly better outcomes were noted following computer-navigated TKA that also controlled for soft tissue balancing versus conventional TKA (mean difference 4.84, 95 % Confidence Interval 1.61, 8.07, p = 0.003). A literature review of robotic systems showed that these systems can, similarly to computer navigation, reliably improve lower leg alignment, component positioning and soft tissues balancing. Furthermore, two studies comparing robotic-assisted with computer-navigated surgery reported superiority of robotic-assisted surgery in controlling these factors. Manually controlling all these surgical variables can be difficult for the orthopaedic surgeon. Findings in this study suggest that computer navigation or robotic assistance may help managing these multiple variables and could improve outcomes. Future studies assessing the role of soft tissue balancing in knee arthroplasty and long-term follow-up studies assessing the role of computer-navigated and robotic-assisted knee arthroplasty are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The porous tantalum monoblock cup has demonstrated excellent short-term and midterm clinical and radiographic outcomes in primary THA, but longer follow-up is necessary to confirm the durability of these results into the second decade. The purpose of this study is to report the clinical and radiographic outcomes for this monoblock cup with a minimum 15-year follow-up. METHODS From June 1998 to December 1999, 61 consecutive patients (63 hips) underwent primary THA with a tantalum monoblock acetabular component. All patients were followed clinically and radiographically for a minimum of 15 years. At a mean of 15.6 years (range, 15-16 years) of follow-up, 5 patients had died, and 4 had been lost to follow-up, leaving 52 patients (54 hips) for analysis. The underlying diagnosis that led to the primary THA was primary osteoarthritis in 43 hips, avascular necrosis in 4, developmental hip dysplasia in 3, rheumatoid arthritis in 3 and post-traumatic osteoarthritis in 1. RESULTS One cup was revised for deep infection; at surgery, the cup showed osseointegration. At a mean follow-up of 15.6 years (range, 15-16 years), the survivorship with cup revision for aseptic loosening as end point was 100%. There was no radiographic evidence of loosening, migration, or gross polyethylene wear at last follow-up. The mean Harris Hip Scores improved from 47 points preoperatively to 94 points. CONCLUSION The porous tantalum monoblock cup in primary THA demonstrated excellent clinical and radiographic outcomes with no failures because of osteolysis or loosening at a minimum follow-up of 15 years.

Abstract
Polyethylene wear debris can cause osteolysis and the failure of total hip arthroplasty. We present the five-year wear rates of a highly cross-linked polyethylene (X3) bearing surface when used in conjunction with a 36 mm ceramic femoral head. This was a prospective study of a cohort of 100 THAs in 93 patients. Pain and activity scores were measured pre- and post-operatively. Femoral head penetration was measured at two months, one year, two years and at five years using validated edge-detecting software (PolyWare Auto). At a mean of 5.08 years (3.93 to 6.01), 85 hips in 78 patients were available for study. The mean age of these patients was 59.08 years (42 to 73, the mean age of males (n = 34) was 59.15 years, and females (n = 44) was 59.02 years). All patients had significant improvement in their functional scores (p < 0.001). The steady state two-dimensional linear wear rate was 0.109 mm/year. The steady state volumetric wear rate was 29.61 mm(3)/year. No significant correlation was found between rate of wear and age (p = 0.34), acetabular component size (p = 0.12) or clinical score (p = 0.74). Our study shows low steady state wear rates at five years in X3 highly cross-linked polyethylene in conjunction with a 36 mm ceramic femoral head. The linear wear rate was almost identical to the osteolysis threshold of 0.1 mm/year recommended in the literature.

CT-based quantification of bone stock in large head metal-on-metal unilateral total hip replacements. Eur J Radiol 2016; 85:760-3. [PMID: 26971420 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2016.01.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2015] [Revised: 11/06/2015] [Accepted: 01/21/2016] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore ipsilateral and contralateral acetabular roof bone stock density in unilateral large head MoM THA whether there is a significant lower acetabular bone stock in the hip with a metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip replacement compared to the contralateral side. Second part of this study is to examine if there are any associates with regard to potential bone stock density difference. MATERIALS & METHODS A database of 317 patients with unilateral metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip replacements was set up retrospectively for this study. On computed tomography scans, conducted after a relative short in situ time period averaging 2.8 years, regions-of-interests were drawn in the trabecular bone of the acetabulum to measure average Hounsfield Units (HU). HU differences were calculated and tested by Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Univariate analysis was conducted to examine associates of potential bone loss. RESULTS In a population of 317 patients (156 male, 161 female) with an average age of 61.9 ± 7.8, the median HU on the side of the MoM replacement was 123.3 (7.6-375.4). On the contralateral side, median HU was 144.7 (-0.4 to 332.8). The median HU difference was 21.4 after a mean post-operative in situ time of 2.8 years. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test proved a significant difference (p<0.001). Univariate analyses show that the in situ time of the MoM THA has a significant correlation with the bone density difference. CONCLUSION Results show a significant lower bone density at the acetabular roof at the side of the prosthesis compared with the contralateral side after short in situ time of the MoM THA in patients with unilateral MoM total hip replacements. In our patient population, the in situ time showed a significant association with the acetabular bone density difference. As acetabular roof bone stock measurements are feasible and show temporal decline this could become an important parameter to be used in orthopedic decision making for revision surgery.

Use of internal references for assessing CT density measurements of the pelvis as replacement for use of an external phantom. Skeletal Radiol 2015; 44:1597-602. [PMID: 26173417 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-015-2206-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2015] [Revised: 06/04/2015] [Accepted: 06/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this research is to study the use of an internal reference standard for fat- and muscle as a replacement for an external reference standard with a phantom. By using a phantomless internal reference standard, Hounsfield unit (HU) measurements of various tissues can potentially be assessed in patients with a CT scan of the pelvis without an added phantom at time of CT acquisition. This paves the way for development of a tool for quantification of the change in tissue density in one patient over time and between patients. This could make every CT scan made without contrast available for research purposes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty patients with unilateral metal-on-metal total hip replacements, scanned together with a calibration reference phantom used in bone mineral density measurements, were included in this study. On computed tomography scans of the pelvis without the use of intravenous iodine contrast, reference values for fat and muscle were measured in the phantom as well as within the patient's body. The conformity between the references was examined with the intra-class correlation coefficient. RESULTS The mean HU (± SD) of reference values for fat for the internal- and phantom references were -91.5 (±7.0) and -90.9 (±7.8), respectively. For muscle, the mean HU (± SD) for the internal- and phantom references were 59.2 (±6.2) and 60.0 (±7.2), respectively. The intra-class correlation coefficients for fat and muscle were 0.90 and 0.84 respectively and show excellent agreement between the phantom and internal references. CONCLUSION Internal references can be used with similar accuracy as references from an external phantom. There is no need to use an external phantom to asses CT density measurements of body tissue.

Abstract
Femoral bone loss is a complex problem in revision total hip arthroplasty. The Paprosky classification is used when determining the degree and location of bone loss. Meticulous operative planning is essential where severe bone loss is a concern. One must correctly identify the bone loss pattern, safely remove the existing components, and proceed with the proper reconstruction technique based on the pattern of bone loss. This article discusses the etiology and classification of bone loss, clinical and radiographic evaluation, components of effective preoperative planning, and clinical results of various treatment options with a focus on more severe bone loss patterns.

Abstract
Dislocation remains among the most common complications of, and reasons for, revision of both primary and revision total hip replacements (THR). Hence, there is great interest in maximising stability to prevent this complication. Head size has been recognised to have a strong influence on the risk of dislocation post-operatively. As femoral head size increases, stability is augmented, secondary to an increase in impingement-free range of movement. Larger head sizes also greatly increase the 'jump distance' required for the head to dislocate in an appropriately positioned cup. Level-one studies support the use of larger diameter heads as they decrease the risk of dislocation following primary and revision THR. Highly cross-linked polyethylene has allowed us to increase femoral head size, without a marked increase in wear. However, the thin polyethylene liners necessary to accommodate larger heads may increase the risk of liner fracture and larger heads have also been implicated in causing soft-tissue impingement resulting in groin pain. Larger diameter heads also impart larger forces on the femoral trunnion, which may contribute to corrosion, metal release, and adverse local tissue reactions. Alternative large bearings including large ceramic heads and dual mobility bearings may mitigate some of these risks, and several of these devices have been used with clinical success.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty represents a well-established and successful procedure; however, ligament incompetence is known to negatively affect surgical outcomes. Here we present an unusual case of early total knee arthroplasty failure secondary to femoral posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion and associated lateral collateral ligament (LCL) tear, treated successfully with primary PCL repair and LCL reconstruction. For LCL reconstruction, a peroneus longus allograft was passed through an anterior to posterior bony tunnel in the fibular head and docked into a horizontal femoral tunnel.

Abstract
Introduction Impaction allograft with cement is a common technique used in revision hip surgeries for the last 20 years. However, its clinical results are inconsistent. Recent studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) seeded onto allograft can enhance bone formation. This in vitro study investigates whether the increase in temperature related to the polymerisation of bone cement will affect the viability of human MSCs. Methods The viability of human MSCs was measured after incubating them at temperatures of 38°C, 48°C and 58°C; durations 45 seconds, 80 seconds and 150 seconds. A control group was kept at 37°C and 5% carbon dioxide for the duration of the investigation (7 days). During the course of the study the human MSCs were analysed for cell metabolic activity using the alamarBlue™ assay, cell viability using both Trypan Blue dye exclusion and calcein staining under fluorescent microscopy, and necrosis and apoptosis using Annexin V and propidium iodide for flow cytometric analysis. A one-way analysis of variance with a priori Dunnett’s test was used to indicate the differences between the treatment groups, when analysed against the control. This identified conditions with a significant difference in cell metabolic activity (alamarBlue™) and cell viability (Trypan Blue). Results Results showed that cell metabolism was not severely affected up to 48°C/150 seconds, while cells in the 58°C group died. Similar results were shown using Trypan Blue and calcein analysis for cell viability. No significant difference in apoptosis and necrosis of the cells was observed when human MSCs treated at 48°C/150 seconds were compared with the control group. Conclusions The study suggests that human MSCs seeded onto allograft can be exposed to temperatures up to 48°C for 150 seconds. Exposure to this temperature for this time period is unlikely to occur during impaction allograft surgery when cement is used. Therefore, in many situations, the addition of human MSCs to cemented impaction grafting may be carried out without detrimental effects to the cells. Furthermore, previous studies have shown that this can enhance new bone formation and repair the defects in revision situations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with increased cost, morbidity, and technical challenge compared to primary THA. A better understanding of the risk factors for early revision is needed to inform strategies to optimize patient outcomes. METHODS A total of 207,256 patients who underwent primary THA between 1997-2005 in California and New York were identified from statewide databases. Unique patient identifiers were used to identify early revision THA (<10 years from index procedure). Patient characteristics (demographics, comorbidities, insurance type, and preoperative diagnosis), community characteristics (education level, poverty, and population density), and hospital characteristics (annual THA volume, bed size, and teaching status) were evaluated using multivariable regression to determine risk factors for early revision. RESULTS The probabilities of undergoing early aseptic revision and early septic revision were 4% and <1% at 5 years, respectively. Women were 29% less likely than men to undergo early septic revision (P < 0.001). Patients with Medicaid and Medicare were 91% and 24%, respectively, more likely to undergo early septic revision than privately insured patients (P = 0.01 and P < 0.001, respectively). Hospitals performing <200 THAs annually had a 34% increased risk of early aseptic revision compared to hospitals performing >400 THAs annually (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION A number of identifiable factors, including younger age, Medicaid, and low hospital volume, increase the risk of undergoing early revision THA. Patient-level characteristics distinctly affect the risk of revision within 10 years, particularly if due to infection. Our findings reinforce the need for continued investigation of the predictors of early failure following THA.

Abstract
Between 2001 and 2011, 1168 revision hip arthroplasties were reviewed for "early" failures within 5 years of the primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). 24.1% underwent revision within 5 years of index THA. Aseptic loosening, infection, instability, metallosis, and fracture were common modes of failure. In our previous report from 1986 to 2000, 33% were "early" revisions, with instability and aseptic loosening accounting for over 70% of these early failures. While the proportion of "early" revisions decreased 9% from our previous report, this rate remains alarming. The emergence of metallosis and aseptic loosening of monoblock metal on metal shells as leading causes of early failures is concerning. This report suggests caution in the early adoption of new innovations before evidence based medicine is available to justify the risk of their use.
