Abstract
Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) has been advocated as an attractive therapy for a younger, more demanding patient population with debilitating hip osteoarthritis. Controversies surrounding metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing have, however, led to a significant decline in the popularity of the HRA. Despite this, substantial evidence supports the use of specific implants in a selected group of patients. This is a continued retrospective analysis of a single surgeon series of the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR). Initial medium-term analysis was done in 2011 and published by Van der Bracht et al.13. This analysis includes a long-term follow-up of 7 to 12 years, including functional scoring (HHS, HOOS and UCLA activity score), metal ion evaluation and survival analysis. Failure was defined as revision for any cause. A total of 267 resurfacing procedures with the BHR were included in 247 patients. We had a mean follow-up of 8.3 years. Overall survival at ten years was 94.8%(97.2% for males and 90.1% for females). There was a statistically significant increase in mean HHS score at follow-up (56.03 - IQR 47-65 to 96.07 - IQR 96-100). Elevated metal ions were correlated with a statistically significant increase in the probability of complications. This cohort study further proved that hip resurfacing arthroplasty with the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing implant provides a good alternative to conventional total hip arthroplasty in young patients. There was a significant increase in functional scores at follow-up. There is further evidence of less favorable outcomes in female patients.

Abstract
Metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty has been widely used since the end of the 20th century, although rates have now decreased due to concerns regarding adverse reactions and failure rates. The MoM implant has been replaced with other materials, such as ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) and metal-on-polyethylene (MoP). This literature review looks at the past and present use of MoM prostheses to assess whether the turn away from MoM use is justified. Online literature searches were performed on PubMed, Ovid Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), and Web of Science online databases using the search terms "MoM and (ARMD and ALVAL)" (ARMD: adverse reaction to metal debris; ALVAL: aseptic lymphocyte-dominant vasculitis-associated lesion). A total of 64 relevant titles were included in the review. Although risk factors for adverse reactions and the causes of ARMD are generally agreed upon, more work is required to further understand the specific thresholds of blood metal ion levels that can be used to consistently identify ARMD and excessive metal wear-debris in patients who have not had their MoM implants revised. Metal-on-metal devices are not an acceptable option for total hip arthroplasties (THAs) in their current formulation due to the high rate and risk of ARMD. Some MoM hip resurfacing operations are appropriate for very carefully selected patients who are fully aware of the risks posed by the implant. It is recommended that device-specific thresholds for metal ion levels be developed to identify patients at risk of ARMD locally and systemically while using auxiliary tools to assist diagnosis, such as metal artefact reduction sequences (MARS)-MRI and hip scoring tools. Further work should investigate device-specific blood metal ion levels, the systemic effects of raised metal ion concentrations secondary to MoM arthroprosthetic wear, and the potential risks of ARMD caused by wear from tapered stems (including the implications this has for patients with CoC and MoP prostheses).

Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) in young patients has varying results, and some reports show inferior results when compared with those of older patients. This study evaluated the outcomes of contemporary uncemented THA in patients 45 years or younger. This was a retrospective review from 2003 to 2015 at an academic institution. Three hundred one uncemented THAs in 232 patients 45 years or younger were evaluated. All patients had a minimum follow-up of 5 years. Ninety-day complications, survivorship free of revision, and dislocations were evaluated. Mean age was 35.7 years, 43.1% of patients were women, and mean follow-up was 9.3 years. Ninety-day complications included 26 emergency department visits, 11 readmissions, 3 revisions, and 3 dislocations. The rate of 10-year survivorship free of revision was 85.5%, and the rate of 10-year survivorship free of aseptic revision was 87.7%. Excluding metal-on-metal (MOM) THAs, 10-year aseptic survivorship was 93.3%. The most common reasons for revision were adverse local tissue reaction after MOM THA (16 hips) and periprosthetic joint infection (6 hips). In a multivariable logistic regression model, sickle cell disease (SCD) and conversion THA were associated with 90-day readmissions. Both MOM THA and SCD were associated with revision (P<.05). Patients who are 45 years or younger undergoing THA (excluding MOM articulation) had a rate of 10-year survival free of aseptic revision of 93.3%. At 9.3 years' mean follow-up, THA in young patients was associated with low revision rates with acceptable risk of prosthetic joint infection and dislocation. Patients with SCD are at increased risk for early readmission and revision at latest follow-up. [Orthopedics. 2023;46(1):e45-e51.].

Abstract
Purpose The primary aim of this study was to determine the cost-effectiveness of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients aged 25 years and under by calculating the cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained at 10 years post-operatively, and over the course of a lifetime. Secondary aims were to describe the change in health-related quality of life (HRQoL), Oxford hip score (OHS), and satisfaction in these patients. Methods From 2000 to 2016, 33 patients undergoing THA aged 25 and under had pre-operative and one-year post-operative EuroQol five-dimensions (EQ-5D) scores and OHS recorded prospectively. Post-operative change in EQ-5D allowed calculation of a health-utility score, which, when combined with life expectancy, gave total QALYs gained. Results The mean age was 20 years (range 13.3-24.9), with 23 females (72.7%). Mean number of QALYs gained was 21.1 (95% CI 14.1-28.2). Total lifetime cost per patient was £14641, giving a mean cost per QALY of £4183 at 10 years post-operatively, and £694 over the total remaining lifetime. Discounting total QALYs gained at a rate of 3.5% and 5% per remaining year of life expectancy increased the mean cost per QALY to £1652 and £2187, respectively. Mean pre- and post-operative EQ-5D index were 0.27 (SD 0.27) and 0.63 (SD 0.29), respectively (p=0.0001). Mean pre-operative and post-operative OHS was 37.5 (SD 7.9) and 19.7 (SD 6.94), respectively (p<0.00001). Conclusion THA remains a cost-effective intervention for patients aged 25 years and under. It is also associated with significant improvement in HRQoL, OHS, and high levels of patient satisfaction in this unique patient group.

Abstract
Aims The main aims were to identify risk factors predictive of a radiolucent line (RLL) around the acetabular component with an interface bioactive bone cement (IBBC) technique in the first year after THA, and evaluate whether these risk factors influence the development of RLLs at five and ten years after THA. Methods A retrospective review was undertaken of 980 primary cemented THAs in 876 patients using cemented acetabular components with the IBBC technique. The outcome variable was any RLLs that could be observed around the acetabular component at the first year after THA. Univariate analyses with univariate logistic regression and multivariate analyses with exact logistic regression were performed to identify risk factors for any RLLs based on radiological classification of hip osteoarthritis. Results RLLs were detected in 27.2% of patients one year postoperatively. In multivariate regression analysis controlling for confounders, atrophic osteoarthritis (odds ratio (OR) 2.17 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.04 to 4.49); p = 0.038) and 26 mm (OR 3.23 (95% CI 1.85 to 5.66); p < 0.001) or 28 mm head diameter (OR 3.64 (95% CI 2.07 to 6.41); p < 0.001) had a significantly greater risk for any RLLs one year after surgery. Structural bone graft (OR 0.19 (95% CI 0.13 to 0.29) p < 0.001) and location of the hip centre within the true acetabular region (OR 0.15 (95% CI 0.09 to 0.24); p < 0.001) were significantly less prognostic. Improvement of the cement-bone interface including complete disappearance and poorly defined RLLs was identified in 15.1% of patients. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for the acetabular component at ten years with revision of the acetabular component for aseptic loosening as the end point was 100.0% with a RLL and 99.1% without a RLL (95% CI 97.9 to 100). With revision of the acetabular component for any reason as the end point, the survival rate was 99.2% with a RLL (95% CI 97.6 to 100) and 96.5% without a RLL (95% CI 93.4 to 99.7). Conclusion This study demonstrates that acetabular bone quality, head diameter, structural bone graft, and hip centre position may influence the presence of the any RLL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Underlying diseases, bone deformities and polyethylene wear affect outcome in young patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). These issues are not widely confirmed for ceramic - on-ceramic THA, particularly regarding cup fixation. Therefore, we did a retrospective long-term investigation on a large population of cementless ceramic-on-ceramic THA in patients aged 40 years or younger aiming to analyze: 1) the complication rate; 2) clinical results; and 3) survival for cup loosening with regard to their preoperative conditions. HYPOTHESIS Cup loosening could be related to preoperative diagnosis in young patients with a cementless ceramic-on-ceramic THA. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred and seven hips in 171 patients (97 men and 74 women) underwent a cementless ceramic-on-ceramic THA at a mean age of 31.6±6.8 years. The most frequent diagnoses were avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head (74 hips), pediatric hip diseases (35 hips), severe congenital hip dysplasia (CHD) (31 hips), juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (30 hips) and mild CHD (26 hips). The prosthesis included a press-fit metal backed cup with a hydroxyapatite coating and a macrotexture surface on either the equatorial region (93 cups) or the entire surface of the shell (114 cups). Ceramics were made of pure alumina and had a femoral head size of 28 (60 hips) or 32mm (147 hips). In all cases same the straight cementless tapered stem was inserted. RESULTS There were three early dislocations, one requiring cup revision No hip was revised due to infection, ceramic fracture, or femoral component loosening. Eight cups were revised for aseptic loosening (3,8%). The mean preoperative Harris Hip score was 52.8±6.2 and 93.4±6.9 at the end of follow-up. It was better in AVN (95.7±2.3) and worst in severe CHD (88.8±11.8) (p=0.001). If the end-point was cup aseptic loosening, the survival rate at 17 years was 95.1% (95% CI: 91.3-98.9), 100% for AVN and post-traumatic arthritis, and 86.8% (95% CI: 74.9-98.7) for severe CHD. CONCLUSIONS Despite diagnoses frequently causing technical difficulties at the surgery, outcome of cementless ceramic-on-ceramic THA in patients under the age of 40 years is satisfactory over ten years of follow up. Cup aseptic loosening was the main cause of failure and appears more related to the initial hip diseases than the age of the patient. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is growing recognition of the importance of patient-reported outcome measures and assessment of patient satisfaction in the evaluation of outcomes following surgical interventions. This study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcomes and complication rates after total hip arthroplasty following joint preservation surgery for hip dysplasia. METHODS Patient-reported outcomes and complication rates of 85 hips with previous joint preservation surgery (salvage group) were compared with those of 1279 hips without joint preservation surgery (primary arthroplasty group). As a patient-reported outcome measure, the Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire was used to evaluate the hip condition both preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively. Operative data and postoperative (within 12 months) complications were investigated. RESULTS The salvage group had a longer operative time (56.8 vs 44.9 minutes, P < .001) and a higher total complication rate (5.9% vs 1.1%, P < .001). Additionally, the salvage group exhibited a lower degree of improvement in the visual analog scale value for satisfaction (75.1 vs 83.1 mm, P = .011), the pain and movement category scores, and the total score of the Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire (14.2 vs 16.2, P = .031; 13.7 vs 16.0, P = .005; and 42.3 vs 47.9, P = .007, respectively) compared with the primary arthroplasty group. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated a lower rate of improvement in patient satisfaction and worse self-reported outcomes in the salvage group. Furthermore, these patients had a longer operative time and a higher risk of operative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is variable evidence regarding survivorship beyond 20 years of total hip arthroplasties in young patients. We report the long-term results of the Exeter cemented hip system in patients ≤50 years at minimum of 20 years. METHODS Clinical and radiological outcomes of 130 consecutive total hip arthroplasties in 107 patients aged 50 years or younger at primary operation were reviewed; 77% had a diagnosis other than osteoarthritis. All patients were followed at 5-year intervals, no patients were lost to follow-up, and the status of every implant is known. RESULTS Mean age at surgery was 41.8 (17-50) years. Mean follow-up was 22.0 (20.0-26.1) years. There were 79 hips surviving, 14 hips (11 patients) deceased, and 37 hips revised. Reasons for revision: 29 hips for aseptic cup loosening (26 stems revised using cement-in-cement, three left in-situ); three stems for femoral osteolysis, two related to acetabular polyethylene wear (14.1 and 17.0 years), one with Gaucher's disease (21.1 years); one broken stem (12.9 years); one cup for instability (4.3 years-stem revised using cement-in-cement); and two hips with infection (8.5 and 23.8 years). There were no cases of aseptic loosening of the Exeter stem. There were no radiologically loose stems although eight patients had radiological evidence of loosening of the cemented cup. Survivorship at 22 years was 74.9% for revision for all causes and 96.3% for revision of the stem for aseptic loosening or lysis. CONCLUSION The Exeter cemented stem has excellent survivorship at minimum 20 years in young patients. Acetabular component survivorship was less favorable, but the advent of highly cross-linked polyethylene may improve this in the long term.

Abstract
Background This study aims to investigate the curative effects of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in treating hip bony fusion for young and middle-aged patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods The clinical data of 26 young and middle-aged patients with AS (31 coxae), who were treated with THA and followed-up for more than 3 years in the period between February 1998 and May 2013, were retrospectively analyzed. Among these patients, 22 patients were male (25 coxae) and 4 patients were female (6 coxae). Patients’ age ranged within 19–50 years old, with an average of 31.5 years old. The intervals from arthroplasty to the occurrence of hip joint lesions caused by AS ranged within 2–26 years, with an average of 11.2 years. The average Harris score before the surgery was 19.0 ± 11.5 points. Results Femoral proximal cleavage fracture occurred in one coxa during the surgery and was fixed by the steel wire cerclage. Sciatic nerve traction injury occurred in one coxa after the surgery, which recovered after 6 months. Posterior hip dislocation occurred in one coxa and was immediately treated with manual reduction. All patients were followed-up, and follow-up duration ranged within 36–123 months, with an average of 46.5 months. In the last follow-up, the average Harris score was 87.1 ± 13.1 points, total passive range of motion was 215.0 ± 22.0°, and passive range of flexion was 90.8 ± 9.3°. All these indexes significantly increased compared with pretreatment (P < 0.01). A periacetabular radiolucent line occurred in one coxa with a width of < 2 mm, and no femoral radiolucent line was found during follow-ups in any patient. Heterotopic ossification occurred in four coxae. Conclusion THA treatment for hip bony fusion caused by AS can achieve satisfactory hip function recovery and excellent prosthesis survival rate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim was to evaluate short- and long-term outcomes in patients with high hip dislocation operated with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy and uncemented total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Sixty-five hips operated in 1986-2001, at mean age 48 years (15-79), were followed for mean 19 years (13-30). RESULTS At last follow up, there were two femoral and 35 acetabular revisions. Harris hip score was mean 86 (81-90) in unrevised, and 87 (82-90) in revised hips. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows favorable long-term results for a fully hydroxyapatite (HA) coated stem. Aseptic cup-loosening may be reduced by using better implants.

Abstract
Aims This study presents the long-term survivorship, risk factors for prosthesis survival, and an assessment of the long-term effects of changes in surgical technique in a large series of patients treated by metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA). Patients and Methods Between November 1996 and January 2012, 1074 patients (1321 hips) underwent HRA using the Conserve Plus Hip Resurfacing System. There were 787 men (73%) and 287 women (27%) with a mean age of 51 years (14 to 83). The underlying pathology was osteoarthritis (OA) in 1003 (75.9%), developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in 136 (10.3%), avascular necrosis in 98 (7.4%), and other conditions, including inflammatory arthritis, in 84 (6.4%). Results The mean follow-up time was 10.5 years (1 to 20). Using revision for any reason as the endpoint, the overall survivorship at 15 years was 89.4% (95% confidence interval (CI) 86.8 to 91.4). There was a substantial increase between the first and second generation of surgical technique (86.6% vs 90.1%; p = 0.05). Men with idiopathic OA had a 15-year survivorship of 94.5% and women, 82.2% (p = 0.001); gender was not a risk factor after stratification by component size and aetiology. Using revision for excessive wear (ion levels > 7 µg/l associated with symptoms or adverse local tissue reactions) as the endpoint, the 15-year survivorship was 98.5%. Risk factors for revision for all modes of failure were an underlying pathology of hip dysplasia, a contact patch to rim (CPR) distance of 7 mm or less, an age at surgery of 55 years or less, and a femoral component size of 46 mm or less. Specific risk factors for aseptic failure of the femoral component were early surgical technique, a cementless metaphyseal stem, and a body mass index of 24 kg/m2 or less. Conclusion HRA is a viable concept; metal-on-metal bearings are well suited for this procedure when a well-designed device is properly implanted. The best results were obtained in men with OA, but survivorship was better for other underlying pathologies and for women after changes were made to the technique of implantation. Lifetime durability is a possible outcome for many patients despite a high level of activity. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2018;100-B:1424–33.

Abstract
Aims For this retrospective cohort study, patients aged ≤ 30 years (very young) who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) were compared with patients aged ≥ 60 years (elderly) to evaluate the rate of revision arthroplasty, implant survival, the indications for revision, the complications, and the patient-reported outcomes. Patients and Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent primary THA between January 2000 and May 2015 from our institutional database. A total of 145 very young and 1359 elderly patients were reviewed. The mean follow-up was 5.3 years (1 to 18). Logistic generalized estimating equations were used to compare characteristics and the revision rate. Survival was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves and hazard rates were created using Cox regression. Results The overall revision rate was 11% (16/145) in the very young and 3.83% (52/1359) in the elderly groups (odds ratio (OR) 2.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.43 to 4.63). After adjusting for the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, gender, and a history of previous surgery in a time-to-event model, the risk of revision remained greater in the very young (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 2.48, 95% CI 1.34 to 4.58). Survival at ten years was 82% (95% CI, 71 to 89) in the very young and 96% (95% CI, 94 to 97) in the elderly group (p < 0.001). The very young had a higher rate of revision for complications related to metal-on-metal (MoM) bearing surfaces (p < 0.001). At last follow-up, the very young group had higher levels of physical function (p = 0.002), lower levels of mental health (p = 0.001), and similar levels of pain (p = 0.670) compared with their elderly counterparts. Conclusion The overall revision rate was greater in very young THA patients. This was largely explained by the use of MoM bearings. Young patients with non-MoM bearings had high survivorship with similar complication profiles to patients aged ≥ 60 years. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2018;100-B:867-74.

Abstract
The paper introduces an experimental investigation of frictional behaviour of materials used for joint replacements. The measurements were performed using a ball-on-disc tribometer, while four material combinations were tested; metal-on-metal, ceramic-on-ceramic, metal-on-polyethylene, and ceramic-on-polyethylene, respectively. The contact was lubricated by pure saline and various protein solutions. The experiments were realized at two mean speeds equal to 5.7 mm/s and 22 mm/s and two slide-to-roll ratios, −150% and 150%. It was found that the implant material is the fundamental parameter affecting friction. In general, the metal pair exhibited approximately two times higher friction compared to the ceramic. In particular, the friction in the case of the metal varied between 0.3 and 0.6 while the ceramic pair exhibited friction within the range from 0.15 to 0.3 at the end of the test. The lowest friction was observed for polyethylene while it decreased to 0.05 under some conditions. It can be also concluded that adding proteins to the lubricant has a positive impact on friction in the case of hard-on-hard pairs. For hard-on-soft pairs, no substantial influence of proteins was observed. The effect of kinematic conditions was found to be negligible in most cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) and titanium (Ti) have been the most popular materials employed for cementless implants. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical and radiological results of a single stem design with both alloys at long-term follow-up. METHODS Two hundred consecutive uncemented stems implanted in 171 patients (100 Co-Cr and 100 Ti implants) between 1999 and 2002 were studied. Mean age of the patients was 60.9 years (range, 20-84). Clinical results were evaluated using the Harris hip score. The presence of thigh pain was also analyzed. Stem fixation was graded according to Engh criteria. Radiolucent lines, osteolysis, and stem subsidence were also analyzed. RESULTS At 15-year follow-up, no stems had been revised. Both groups showed similar clinical results with mean Harris hip score of 93.4 (Co-Cr) vs 93.9 (Ti). There was no difference in the rate of thigh pain (11 vs 8.3, respectively, P = .507). Radiolucent lines were more frequent in the Co-Cr group (63.6% vs 35.6%, P < .001). CONCLUSION Ti stems showed better osteointegration than Co-Cr stems, with a significantly lower incidence of radiolucent lines. However, this did not affect the clinical results or the appearance of thigh pain.

Abstract
Background and purpose - About 86,000 total hip replacements (THR) have been registered in patients under 55 years in the National Joint Registry of England and Wales (NJR). The use of uncemented implants has increased, despite their outcomes not having been proven to be significantly better than cemented implants in this registry. We determined the implant survivorship and functional outcomes of cemented THR in patients under 55 years at a minimum follow-up of 22 years. Patients and methods - 104 hips in 100 patients were included in this prospective study. Functional outcome was assessed using the Harris Hip Score and radiographs were assessed for implant failure and "at risk" of failure. Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis was performed. Results - 89% of hips showed good to excellent results at final follow-up with a mean Harris Hip Score of 88 at a mean follow-up of 25 years. Revision was performed in 3/104 hips. 14 acetabular components and 4 femoral components were "at risk" of failure. The survivorship at minimum 22 years with revision for any reason as the end-point was 97% (95% CI 95-98). Interpretation - Cemented hip replacements perform well in young patients with good long-term functional and radiographic outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of revision following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increased in young patients who undergo THA for pathologies other than primary osteoarthritis. We report the results of primary THA performed with cemented polished stems in patients aged 40 years and younger for pathologies other than primary osteoarthritis. METHODS We investigated 52 patients (65 hips) who underwent primary THA for secondary osteoarthritis with a cemented tapered polished stem between 1990 and 2007. Clinical and radiographic outcomes, available in 46 patients (57 hips), included the Harris Hip Scores, Societe Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopedique et de Traumatologie activity, patient satisfaction, stem survival and reoperations, and assessment of prosthesis-cement-bone radiolucencies, osteolysis, and femoral bone deficiencies. RESULTS Median patient age was 34 years (16-40) and follow-up was 14 years (mean 13, range 5-22). Stem survival to the endpoint revision for loosening was 100% and to the endpoint revision for any reason, excluding infection was 88% (95% confidence interval 78-98) at 16 years. No stem was revised for aseptic loosening. Nine stems were revised for other reasons. Radiographically, one stem was definitely loose at 16 years. The median patient Harris pain score improved from marked pain to no pain at latest follow-up. Patient activity level improved, albeit minimally, for 8 years after surgery. At latest follow-up, 98% of the patients remained satisfied with their surgery. CONCLUSION Primary THA with a cemented polished stem shows excellent results in young patients with pathology other than primary osteoarthritis. In addition, the stem design facilitates cement within cement exchange and therefore preservation of proximal femoral bone stock at revision surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigates the outcomes of cemented sockets in young patients (<50 years) requiring a total hip replacement (THR) compared to older patients (>50 years) having the same procedure, under the same surgeon between June 2005 and May 2009. METHODS Prosthesis survivorship rates, patient outcomes and radiological findings were compared between a consecutive series of 56 young patients (mean 42, range 25-49) and 56 older patients (mean 69, range 53-81) that underwent a primary THR using a cemented Stryker® Exeter™ Contemporary™ flanged cup. The minimum follow-up was 5 years. RESULTS No significant difference was observed between the groups' Oxford Hip Scores (p = 0.078) or satisfaction scores (p = 0.67). Worst case scenario analysis for revision, failure or lost to follow-up showed 94.6% survival in the <50 year olds and 92.9% survival in the >50 year olds at 5 years. This study demonstrates no significant difference in patient outcomes, survivorship or radiographic findings at a minimum of 5 years between patients <50 years old and those >50 years old undergoing THR with a cemented socket. CONCLUSIONS We believe the current trend towards uncemented cups may be driven by marketing rather than by evidence of improved outcomes. Cemented sockets provide very good outcomes for patients of all ages.

Abstract
AIMS We carried out a further study of the long-term results of the cemented Exeter femoral component in patients under the age of 40 with a mean follow-up of 13.6 years (10 to 20). PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed our original cohort of 104 cemented Exeter stems in 78 consecutive patients with a mean age of 31 years (16 to 39). Only one patient was lost to radiological follow-up. RESULTS A total of six patients (eight hips) had died for reasons unrelated to their surgery. There had been one further periprosthetic fracture from a fall and one fractured femoral stem. No revisions for aseptic loosening were undertaken during the whole study period. Overall, 11 hips had progressive radiolucent lines in one or more zones. The Kaplan Meier survival percentages at ten and 17 years were 97.1% (95% confidence interval (CI) 91.3 to 99.1) and 92.1% (95% CI 74.1 to 97.8) with revision for any reason as the endpoint, and 100% at both ten and 17 years with aseptic loosening (95% CI 83.8 to 100) as the endpoint. No additional hips were classified as radiologically loose. CONCLUSION The Exeter femoral component continues to function satisfactorily in young patients for up to 17 years after surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) from a fused hip is a challenging procedure because of the technical difficulties involved. Here we report the surgical procedure and the early clinical outcome of conversion THA from a fused hip through a direct anterior approach. METHODS 9 consecutive THAs following hip fusion were performed in 9 patients. Of these, 6 patients had undergone surgical hip fusion and 3 patients had nonsurgical fusion. RESULTS The mean time interval between fusion and THA was 29.7 years. The mean follow-up period was 5.2 years. All THAs were performed using a direct anterior approach on a standard surgical table. The mean operative time was 68.7 minutes. The mean intraoperative blood loss was 377 g. All acetabular components were placed within Lewinnek's safe zone. The mean Japanese Orthopaedic Hip Score significantly improved from 54.0 to 73.2. One early anterior dislocation occurred and was treated conservatively. No revision surgery was required. CONCLUSIONS The direct anterior approach allows for an accurate and less invasive implantation of the total hip components.

Abstract
We report the results of the Birmingham Mid-Head Resection Arthroplasty (BMHR) for patients with poor femoral head bone quality where standard hip resurfacing is contraindicated. This is a clinical and radiological follow-up of the first 35 consecutive procedures (34 patients, 16 male, 18 female) performed by an independent surgeon. The mean follow-up was 2.8 years (2.1 to 4.1) and no patients were lost to follow-up. The mean age at the time of surgery was 50.4 years (23.8 to 69.4). There were no failures. The mean HHS improved from 46.6 (25 to 70) pre-operatively to 96.1 (72 to 100) post-operatively. The mean OHS was 36.4 (19 to 53) pre-operatively and 14.2 (12 to 34) post-operatively. The mean WOMAC score was 45.6 (7 to 92) pre-operatively and 4.3 (0 to 28) post-operatively. The mean UCLA activity score was 4.5 (1 to 9) pre-operatively and 7.6 (5 to 10) post-operatively. Radiographic analysis did not show any adverse features such as stress shielding, loosening or femoral neck narrowing. The BMHR provides an excellent alternative to conventional total hip arthroplasty in patients with poor femoral head bone quality who are not suitable for standard resurfacing.

To compare surgical results of total hip arthroplasty (THA) following acetabular osteotomy, operative records of 13 hips following Chiari osteotomy (Chiari group), 22 hips following rotational periacetabular osteotomy (RAO; RAO group), 16 hips following shelf acetabuloplasty (Shelf group), and 2475 hips without previous osteotomy (Control group) were retrospectively reviewed. The operative time was significantly longer in the RAO group than in the Control group. Bulk bone augmentation was required more often in the Chiari and RAO groups than in the Control group. An early migration of the acetabular cup occurred in 2 hips in the RAO group. RAO made conversion to THA more complicated than did the Chiari osteotomy or the shelf acetabuloplasty.

Abstract
PURPOSE There are limited studies examining the long-term survivorship for the current generation of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing (MOMHR) implants in the young male population, and fewer studies have been published on prospectively collected outcomes data for total hip resurfacing in the USA. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the efficacy of MOMHR in comparison with total hip arthroplasty (THA) using validated outcome measures, survivorship and complication rates. METHODS The study prospectively followed 136 implants in 123 male patients <65 years, all with a primary diagnosis of osteoarthritis and similar comorbidities as determined by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score. A single-surgeon cohort of 89 MOMHRs was compared with a similar cohort of 47 THAs. Outcomes were prospectively assessed with the Short-Form Health Survey of 12 questions (SF-12) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) questionnaires pre- and postoperatively at yearly intervals. Minimum follow-up was two years, and average follow-up was 3.9 years. RESULTS Diagnosis, body mass index (BMI), American Association of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and pre-operative pain and function scores were not significantly different between groups. There was no difference in SF-12 scores postoperatively. At one and two years postoperatively, the MOMHR group had better WOMAC scores than the THA group, but no difference was seen at three to five years postoperatively. There were no revisions in either group over the study period. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated good results for hip resurfacing in men <65 years five years postoperatively and similar function to THA patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although Charnley-Kerboull metal-on-polyethylene 22.2mm cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered to be the gold standard in France, results with this prosthesis are conflicting, in particular in relation to Scandinavian registers. The goal of this retrospective study was to confirm the validity of this prosthesis at a minimum of 10years follow-up. HYPOTHESIS Survival of this type of THA would fulfill NICE conditions (survival at 10 years of at least 90%). MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and five primary THA were performed in 93 patients (30 men and 63 women) mean age 72.6 years old (60-86) between January 1998 and March 2001. After a mean follow-up of 10.6 years (10-13 years), 21 patients (23 THA) were lost to follow-up and 32 (35 THA) had died leaving 40 patients (47 THA) for clinical analysis (Merle d'Aubigné and Oxford scores) and X-ray assessment. Survival was calculated with revision for any cause and radiological loosening with or without revision as end-points. RESULTS The mean Oxford score at the final follow-up was 22/60 (13-45), the PMA score was 14.2 (11-17). Eight patients underwent revision surgery after a mean 7.5 years (2-11) (1 early dislocation and 7 acetabular cup loosenings). Survival at 10 years was 89.4% (CI95%: 78-95) for all causes of revision and 78% (CI95%: 61-91) for loosening with (n=7) or without (n=3) revision. No cases of septic or femoral loosening were observed. Twelve of the 47 revised hip replacements (25.5%) presented wear≥2mm. DISCUSSION Although functional results were acceptable for this elderly population, survival did not reach the NICE value and was lower than results in the literature for this type of implant. Cup loosening and wear were the main causes of revision. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV retrospective.

Abstract
Total hip resurfacing has long been conceptually attractive to both surgeons and patients. However, historically it has been plagued by limited durability and marked acetabular bone loss. The recent development of wear-resistant bearings, such as metal-on-metal, has led to renewed interest in hip resurfacing in the orthopedic community. Several resurfacing implants have been designed and positive results, particularly in young patients, have been reported. Although comparative studies of hip resurfacing and standard total hip replacement are still lacking, we believe that there is now evidence to demonstrate that this surgical concept deserves consideration, particularly when treating young patients with hip diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is allegedly associated with increased rates of infection, dislocation and aseptic loosening of cup and stem. METHOD Systematic review of the literature on clinical and radiological results of cemented THA in RA. RESULTS Twenty-one case series and eight reports on four implant registries were included. The quality of most studies was judged to be poor. The reported rates of infection and dislocation in the case series were conflicting with a risk of bias due to under-registration. The registries proved unsuitable for providing reliable data on the incidence of these two complications. Increased rates of aseptic loosening were reported in 10 out of 20 case series on the cup and in six out of 19 on the stem. Nearly all of these were based on series implanted before 1980. None of the registries reported a significantly increased risk of aseptic loosening of cup or stem. CONCLUSIONS Considering the relatively frequent reports of increased infection rates in combination with the potential under-registration of complications, RA patients have to be considered to have a mild increased risk of postoperative infection. Case series and registries cannot answer the question of whether RA is a risk factor for dislocation as multivariate analysis is required. Increased rates of cup and stem failure due to aseptic loosening in RA patients are found in older but not in more recent studies.

Abstract
We report the long-term survival and functional outcome of the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) in patients aged < 50 years at operation, and explore the factors affecting survival. Between 1997 and 2006, a total of 447 BHRs were implanted in 393 patients (mean age 41.5 years (14.9 to 49.9)) by one designing surgeon. The mean follow-up was 10.1 years (5.2 to 14.7), with no loss to follow-up. In all, 16 hips (3.6%) in 15 patients were revised, giving an overall cumulative survival of 96.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) 93.7 to 98.3) at ten years and 94.1% (95% CI 84.9 to 97.3) at 14 years. Using aseptic revision as the endpoint, the survival for men with primary osteoarthritis (n = 195) was 100% (95% CI 100 to 100) at both ten years and 14 years, and in women with primary osteoarthritis (n = 109) it was 96.1% (95% CI 90.1 to 99.9) at ten years and 91.2% (95% CI 68.6 to 98.7) at 14 years. Female gender (p = 0.047) and decreasing femoral head size (p = 0.044) were significantly associated with an increased risk of revision. The median Oxford hip score (OHS, modified as a percentage with 100% indicating worst outcome) at last follow-up was 4.2% (46 of 48; interquartile range (IQR) 0% to 24%) and the median University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) score was 6.0 (IQR 5 to 8). Men had significantly better OHS (p = 0.02) and UCLA scores (p = 0.01) than women. The BHR provides excellent survival and functional results in men into the second decade, with good results achieved in appropriately selected women. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2013;95-B:1172–7.

Abstract
We evaluated the outcome of 41 consecutive Charnley low-friction arthroplasties (LFAs) performed by a single surgeon in 28 patients aged ≤ 35 years at operation between 23 and 36 years previously. There were 20 women and eight men with a mean age of 32 years (23 to 35) at surgery. Two patients (three hips) were lost to follow-up at 12 and 17 years post-operatively, respectively, and one patient (one hip) died at 13 years post-operatively. These patients were excluded from the final evaluation. The survival rate of the acetabular components was 92.7% (95% confidence interval (CI) 88.7 to 96.7) at ten years, 67.1% (95% CI 59.75 to 74.45) at 20 years and 53.2% (95% CI 45.3 to 61.1) at 25 years. For the femoral component the survival was 95.1% (95% CI 91.8 to 98.5) at ten years, 77.1% (95% CI 73.9 to 80.3) at 20 years and 68.2% (95% CI 60.7 to 75.8) at 25 years. The results indicate that the Charnley LFA remains a reasonable choice in the treatment of young patients and can serve for comparison with newer techniques and implants.

Abstract
Total hip and total knee replacements (THR and TKR respectively), the definitive treatments for end-stage arthritis, are both safe and extremely successful in relieving pain and improving function. However, physicians who care for patients with chronic hip and knee arthritis are often the 'gatekeepers' to total joint replacement (TJR) procedures as they select patients for referral to an orthopaedic surgeon to be considered for arthroplasty. Currently, no evidence-based criteria exist to guide physicians in this decision-making process, and this situation raises the possibility that conscious or unconscious biases may influence referral patterns, potentially leading to systematic inequities regarding which patients are eventually offered TJR. This article reviews why TJRs are particularly important procedures, and highlights common misperceptions among physicians regarding TJR risk assessment. This article also underscores the benefits of ongoing discussion regarding TJR with all patients with moderate-to-severe chronic hip or knee pain and disability.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the 10- to 18-year follow-up of cementless acetabular fixation in patients 50 years and younger. We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive group of 118 patients (144 hips) in whom primary total hip arthroplasty had been performed by 2 surgeons using a cementless acetabular component. Two (1.4%) cementless acetabular components were revised because of aseptic loosening. Twenty-four hips (16.7%) were revised for any mechanical failure of the acetabular component mostly related to acetabular liner wear and osteolysis. The average linear wear rate was 0.19 mm per year, which was higher than our previous reports with cemented acetabular fixation. The fiber mesh ingrowth surface of the cementless acetabular component in this study was superior to cemented acetabular components in terms of fixation. However, the high rates of wear and osteolysis have led to poor overall acetabular component construct survivorship.

Abstract
The performance of total hip-joint replacements depends strongly on the state of lubrication in vivo. In order to test candidate prosthetic materials, in vitro wear testing requires a lubricant that behaves in the same manner as synovial fluid. The current study investigated three lubricants and looked in detail at the lubrication conditions and the consequent effect on ball-on-flat reciprocating wear mechanisms of Biolox®delta against alumina. Biolox®delta, the latest commercial material for artificial hip-joint replacements, is an alumina-matrix composite with improved mechanical properties through the addition of zirconia and other mixed oxides. Three commonly used laboratory lubricants, ultra pure water, 25 vol.% new-born calf serum solution and 1 wt.% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (CMC-Na) solution, were used for the investigation. The lubrication regimes were defined by constructing Stribeck curves. Full fluid-film lubrication was observed for the serum solution whereas full fluid-film and mixed lubrications were observed in both water and the CMC-Na solution. The wear rates in the CMC-Na and new-born calf serum were similar, but were an order of magnitude higher in water. The worn surfaces all exhibited pitting, which is consistent with the transition from mild wear to severe or "stripe" wear. The extent of pitting was greatest in the serum solution, but least in the water. On all worn surfaces, the zirconia appeared to have fully transformed from tetragonal to monoclinic symmetry. However, there was no evidence of microcracking associated with the transformed zirconia. Nevertheless, AFM indicated that zirconia was lost preferentially to the alumina grains during sliding. Thus, the current study has shown conclusively that the wear mechanisms for Biolox®delta clearly depend on the lubricant used, even where wear rates were similar.

Abstract
Bearing selection for total hip arthroplasty in young patients is important because of the likely long service life of the implant. Careful consideration of the next operation is recommended when choosing components. No prospective, randomized studies exist that document the clear superiority of any bearing couple in young, active patients. Modern metals, ceramics, and polyethylenes all hold promise. Further long-term data on modern bearings are needed to determine the clinical performance of these bearings. This article summarizes the available data on various bearing couples in patients aged younger than 50 years.

Abstract
We examined all reported outcomes of uncemented and cemented total hip arthroplasty in patients younger than 50 years of age listed in Medline (1966- 1 January 2009) and PubMed, and scrutinised reference lists of relevant papers. In addition, we evaluated relevant data in the Swedish hip arthroplasty register. 109 relevant articles were identified, 37 of which had a mean follow-up longer than 10 years. Although uncemented implants are widely used in patients under 50 years of age, there are only 2 reports that fulfil the criteria published by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the United Kingdom (follow-up of >10 yrs and survival of =90%). Current trends relating to implant selection remain unsupported by survival data, and additional information about the long-term results of newer implants is essential. As matters stand, the most reliable results relate to cemented implants.

Abstract
Hip resurfacing arthroplasty is an increasingly common procedure for osteoarthritis. Conventional radiographs are used routinely for follow-up assessment, however they only provide limited information on the radiological outcome. Various complications have been reported in the scientific literature although not all are fully understood. In an effort to investigate problematic or failing hip resurfacings, various radiological methods have been utilized. These methods can be used to help make a diagnosis and guide management. This paper aims to review and illustrate the radiographic findings in the form of radiography, computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound of both normal and abnormal findings in hip resurfacing arthroplasty. However, imaging around a metal prosthesis with CT and MRI is particularly challenging and therefore the potential techniques used to overcome this are discussed.

Abstract
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic disease of childhood; it causes joint damage which may require surgical intervention, often in the young adult. The aim of this study was to describe the long-term outcome and survival of hip replacement in a group of adult patients with JIA and to determine predictors of survival for the prosthesis. In this retrospective comparative study patients were identified from the database of a regional specialist adult JIA clinic. This documented a series of 47 hip replacements performed in 25 adult patients with JIA. Surgery was performed at a mean age of 27 years (11 to 47), with a mean follow-up of 19 years (2 to 36). The mean Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index questionnaire (WOMAC) score at the last follow-up was 53 (19 to 96) and the mean Health Assessment Questionnaire score was 2.25 (0 to 3). The mean pain component of the WOMAC score (60 (20 to 100)) was significantly higher than the mean functional component score (46 (0 to 97)) (p = 0.02). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed a survival probability of 46.6% (95% confidence interval 37.5 to 55.7) at 19 years, with a trend towards enhanced survival with the use of a cemented acetabular component and a cementless femoral component. This was not, however, statistically significant (acetabular component, p = 0.76, femoral component, p = 0.45). Cox’s proportional hazards regression analysis showed an implant survival rate of 54.9% at 19 years at the mean of covariates. Survival of the prosthesis was significantly poorer (p = 0.001) in patients who had been taking long-term corticosteroids and significantly better (p = 0.02) in patients on methotrexate.

Abstract
The best indication for hip resurfacing is a young active patient with severe hip arthritis, good hip morphology and reasonable bone quality. With revision of either component for any reason as the endpoint, there were 68 revisions in our series of 3,095 consecutive Birmingham Hip Resurfacings (BHR) (1997-2009), including all diagnoses in all ages. This equates to a revision rate of 2.2% and survivorships of 99, 97 and 96% at five, ten and 13 years, respectively. In patients under 55 years with osteoarthritis, the survivorship is 99 and 98% at ten and 13 years. These results provide medium-term evidence that BHR when performed well in properly selected patients offers excellent outcomes and implant survivorship. Small changes to implant materials and design can affect joint function and survivorship significantly as seen from the withdrawal of certain resurfacing devices recently from clinical use. The clinical history of one device cannot be extrapolated to other devices.

Abstract
Metal-on-metal resurfacing arthroplasty is increasingly being performed in young, active patients. Serum and urine metal ion levels are monitored in these patients to assess the physiologic effects of metal-on-metal wear on them. The aim of our prospective study was to evaluate the serum and urine levels of cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr) in young (age, ≤50 years), active Chinese patients who had undergone metal-on-metal hybrid resurfacing arthroplasties. Levels were measured preoperatively using atomic absorption spectrometry and then sequentially at 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24 months after surgery. For both serum and urine Co and Cr, there was an initial increase to a peak at 6 months, followed by a gradual decline after 6 months, whereas renal function was normal during the study the 2-year study period. There was no radiographic evidence of component loosening. All implants were functioning well. Further long-term studies are needed to observe clinical outcomes and to determine the physiologic effects of the wearing process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip resurfacing arthroplasty is a common procedure that improves functional scores and has a reported survivorship between 95% and 98% at 5 years. However, most studies are reported from the pioneering rather than independent centers or have relatively small patient numbers or less than five years followup. Various factors have been implicated in early failure. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Our purposes were to determine: (1) the midterm survival of the BHR; (2) the function in patients treated with hip resurfacing; and (3) whether age, gender, BMI, or size of components related to failure. METHODS We reviewed the first 302 patients (329 hips) on whom we performed resurfacing arthroplasty. We assessed the survivorship, change in functional hip scores (HHS, OHS, WOMAC, UCLA), and analyzed potential risk factors (age, gender, BMI, component size) for failure. The mean age at the time of surgery was 56.0 years (range, 28.2-75.5 years). The minimum followup was 5 years (mean, 6.6 years; range, 5-9.2 years). RESULTS Kaplan-Meier analysis showed survival of 96.5% (95% CI, 94.7-98.4) at 9 years taking revision for any cause as the endpoint. All functional hip scores (HHS, OHS, WOMAC, UCLA) improved. Survivorship was higher in men compared with women. The component sizes and body mass index were smaller in the revised group compared with the nonrevised group. CONCLUSIONS Medium-term survivorship and functional scores of hip resurfacing are comparable to those from the pioneering center. Hip resurfacing remains a good alternative to THA, particularly in the younger male population with relatively large femoral head sizes.

Femoral shortening in total hip arthroplasty for high developmental dysplasia of the hip. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2010; 468:1949-55. [PMID: 20077043 PMCID: PMC2881990 DOI: 10.1007/s11999-009-1218-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2009] [Accepted: 12/21/2009] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND When reconstructing a hip with developmental dysplasia with a high dislocation, placing the acetabular component in the anatomic position can result in a prosthetic hip that is difficult to reduce. Subtrochanteric femoral osteotomy and shortening makes reduction easier but can be associated with complications (eg, limp, sciatic nerve injury, nonunion of the osteotomy) or compromise long-term stem survival. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We therefore evaluated (1) the short-term complication rate, (2) functional scores, and (3) survivorship of prostheses in patients with high developmental dysplasia of the hip reconstructed with femoral shortening. PATIENTS AND METHODS We prospectively followed 46 patients (65 hips) operated on from 1990 to 2000. There were 34 females and 12 males with a mean age of 48 years (range, 16-79 years). Before surgery, all patients had a positive Trendelenburg test. The minimum followup was 8 years (mean, 13 years; range, 8-18 years). RESULTS One patient experienced recurrent dislocation and two peroneal nerve palsies, one of which partially recovered and one of which was permanent. In one patient, the stem subsided and after 8 months was replaced by a larger stem that stabilized. One patient had a nonunion but was functioning well and did not have additional surgery. At followup, 12 of the 65 hips (18%) had a positive Trendelenburg test. The mean muscle strength of the abductors was 4 (range, 3-5). The mean Harris hip score was 87 (range, 59-100) and the mean visual analog scale pain score 81 (range, 35-100). At followup, all stems were well fixed with no obvious signs of radiographic loosening. Ten cups were revised because of aseptic loosening. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest femoral osteotomy and shortening at the subtrochanteric level predictably allows a stable reduction in patients with high developmental dysplasia of the hip and does not lead to any reduction in long-term survival. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, prognostic study. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
