Background

Obesity has been described as an independent risk factor for acetabular component malpositioning. The purpose of this study was to determine if this could be overcome by use of fluoroscopic navigation in total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Methods

The first, postoperative, standing, anteroposterior pelvis radiographs from 1599 consecutive patients who underwent fluoroscopic-guided THAs via anterior approach during a six-year period were obtained. We retrospectively reviewed this prospectively collected data. Inclination and anteversion were measured as described by Barrack et al. Intraoperative target ranges for inclination and anteversion angles were 30°-50° and 5°-25°. Patients were divided into 3 cohorts by body mass index, nonobese (<30 kg/m2) obese (between 30 and 40 kg/m2) and morbidly obese (>40 kg/m2), looking for significant differences in acetabular component positioning.

Results

Of the 1599 patients, 1065 were nonobese, 506 obese, and 28 morbidly obese. Overall, average inclination was 37.7° and anteversion was 16.3°. Regarding inclination, 95.0% of cups were positioned in the safe zone, 95.7% for anteversion, and 91.2% for both inclination and anteversion. Analysis of each cohort individually revealed an average inclination of 37.5° in the nonobese, 37.9° in the obese, and 39.9° in the morbidly obese patients. For anteversion, each group's averages were 16.1°, 16.5°, and 16.0°, respectively. There was no significant relationship between a patient's body mass index and cup position for inclination (P = .867), anteversion (P = .673), or both inclination and anteversion (P = .624).

Conclusion

Fluoroscopy is a useful tool for achieving a targeted acetabular component orientation in direct anterior THA, irrespective of patient BMI.  相似文献

Background

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the implant positions and clinical results of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using an imageless navigation with the concept of combined anteversion.

Methods

A total of 40 cementless revision THAs (24 men and 16 women) using an imageless navigation with the concept of combined anteversion were retrospectively evaluated. The concept of combined anteversion was applied in cup positioning based on Widmer's equation (cup anteversion + 0.7 × stem anteversion). The mean follow-up period was 80.7 months. Postoperatively, the inclination of the cup was evaluated on standard anteroposterior view of the radiograph, and the anteversion of the cup and femoral stem was evaluated using computed tomography scan. A cup inclination of 40° ± 10° and combined anteversion of the cup and femoral stem of 37° ± 10° based on Widmer's equation were regarded as the “safe zone.”

Results

The average anteversion of the revised femoral stems was 15.3° ± 2.9° (range, 9.5°-21.5°), whereas that of the remained femoral stems was 17.4° ± 9.7° (range, 4.2°-29.8°). The inclination, anteversion of the cup, and combined anteversion after revision THA were 42.3° ± 3.1° (range, 32.1°-48.2°), 25.0° ± 2.9° (range, 16.9°-29.5°), and 36.1° ± 3.4° (range, 27.2°-42.9°), respectively. Therefore, the position of the implants, relative to the safe zone, showed no outliers after the revision surgery. Neither dislocation nor osteolysis was observed after the surgery.

Conclusion

Favorable results of this study indicate that imageless navigation helps the surgeon in placing the components of revision THA in the safe zone. This study also shows that when this safe zone is consistently obtained, then no postoperative dislocations were observed in these patients over the 6-year follow-up period.  相似文献

Background

Dislocation is a major complication following total hip arthroplasty, with risk factors such as surgical technique, implant positioning, and implant design. Literature has suggested the distance the femoral head must travel before dislocation to be a predictive factor of dislocation where smaller travel distance has increased dislocation risk. The purpose of this study was to compare 3 designs (hemispherical, metal-on-metal, and dual mobility [DM]) in terms of the dynamic dislocation distance and force required to dislocate.

Methods

This dynamic dislocation distance model used a material testing system that defined acetabular component inclination (30°, 45°, and 60°), anteversion angles (0°, 15°, and 30°), and pelvic tilt (5° [standing] and 26° [chair rise]). Testing groups included a hemispherical shell with a modular polyethylene liner and 32-mm head, a metal-on-metal hip resurfacing cup design with a 40-mm CoCr head, and a DM design with a 42-mm outside diameter articulating liner and an inner 28-mm articulating head.

Results

The dynamic dislocation distance of the DM hip was greater than that of the other designs for all inclination, anteversion, and pelvic tilt angles tested with the exception of 60° inclination/0° anteversion. At 26° pelvic tilt, it was observed that dislocation distance increased with greater anteversion and decreased with larger inclination.

Conclusion

Clinical results have shown the DM design may reduce dislocation. These data support those findings and suggest that if instability is a concern preoperatively or intraoperatively, using a DM implant increases the dynamic dislocation distance.  相似文献

Background

Acetabular cup placement in total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been recognized as an important factor in operative success, and accurate cup placement has been the impetus for novel medical technologies.

Methods

This article examines the cup placement in 955 THAs using a freehand Direct Anterior Approach on a standard operating table. Acetabular anteversion and inclination were determined using the circle theorem. Measurements were divided into safe zone placement determined by Callanan et al as 5°-25° for anteversion and 30°-45° for inclination, as well as by Lewinnek et al as 5°-25° for anteversion and 30°-50° for inclination. Dislocation rate was determined and correlated to safe zone placement.

Results

Although technology has advanced for cup placement, this investigation shows that a freehand technique demonstrates 0.31% dislocation after THA with an accuracy of 85% for the Lewinnek safe zone and 61% for Callanan, potentially because of the sparing of the posterior hip capsule.

Conclusion

The direct anterior approach to the hip on a regular operating table is safe and reliable. Our results demonstrate improvement in cup positioning compared with other freehand techniques. Surgeon awareness and control of the position of the pelvis within space optimizes acetabular component accuracy and precision without the need for special equipment, such as intraoperative fluoroscopy.  相似文献

Background

Although most hip dislocations occur in either standing or sitting position, the safe zone for implant position is defined for the supine position. Our goal was to determine preoperative and postoperative pelvis and hip orientations and whether the safe zone defined in supine position can be used to assess standing radiographs.

Methods

Preoperative and postoperative three-dimensional EOS images were assessed in 66 total hip arthroplasty patients. None of the patients had dislocation within the follow-up period (12-36 months). The acetabular anteversion (both anterior pelvic plane [APP] and patient functional plane) and the femoral anteversion were measured. The sacral slope, pelvic version, pelvic inclination, and pelvic incidence were also measured.

Results

Acetabular anteversion increased postoperatively in both APP and patient functional plane (P <.001). Femoral neck anteversion decreased postoperatively (P =.0942). Sacral slope was 42.4° (?25.9° to 24°) preoperatively compared with 40.3° (?4.1° to 64.2°) postoperatively (P =.013). Pelvic version changed from 15.2° (?10.4° to 43.8°) to 17.2° (?6° to 46.7°; P = 0.008). Pelvic inclination was 1.12° (?25.9° to 24°) before total hip arthroplasty and ?1.2° (?40.7° to 23.4°) postoperatively (P =.005).

Conclusion

The acetabular and femoral implant orientations in standing position reside out of the safe zone in most patients. The APP is not vertical in standing position in most patients due to anterior or posterior pelvic tilt. The proposed safe zone in supine position may not be a useful measure in the assessment of standing radiographs of patients with significant anterior or posterior pelvic tilt.

Study Design

A within-subject research design was used in this study. The difference of the range of motion (ROM) with and without ulnar nerve block was analyzed.

Introduction

For the clinical evaluation of the functional effects of ulnar nerve palsy at the hand the relevance of clinical tests is in discussion.

Purpose of the Study

The aim of the study was to evaluate the predictive value of 2 clinical tests for a simulated ulnar nerve lesion by motion analysis with a sensor glove.

Methods

In 28 healthy subjects, dynamic measurements of the finger joints were performed by a sensor glove with and without ulnar nerve block at the wrist. In the 0° metacarpophalangeal (MCP) stabilization test, the subjects were asked to stabilize the MCP joints actively in 0° while moving the interphalangeal joints, whereas at the 90° MCP stabilization test, the subjects stabilized the MCP joints actively in the 90° position.

Results

In the 0° MCP stabilization test, no remarkable changes of the ROM were found at the MCP joints; at the proximal interphalangeal joints 2-5, the ROM decreased with ulnar nerve block, significantly at the index, middle, and ring fingers (P < .05). In the 90° MCP stabilization test, the average ROM of the MCP joints 2-5 significantly increased with ulnar nerve block (P < .05), whereas at the PIP joints, the average ROM decreased (P < .05).

Discussion

The 90° MCP stabilization test had a high predictive value for the discrimination between healthy subjects and subjects with a simulated peripheral ulnar nerve lesion.

Conclusions

The results could be relevant for the determination of the functional effect of ulnar nerve palsy and the quantification of clawing in hand rehabilitation.

Background

Acetabulum positioning affects dislocation rates, component impingement, bearing surface wear rates, and need for revision surgery. Novel techniques purport to improve the accuracy and precision of acetabular component position, but may have a significant learning curve. Our aim was to assess whether adopting robotic or fluoroscopic techniques improve acetabulum positioning compared to manual total hip arthroplasty (THA) during the learning curve.

Methods

Three types of THAs were compared in this retrospective cohort: (1) the first 100 fluoroscopically guided direct anterior THAs (fluoroscopic anterior [FA]) done by a surgeon learning the anterior approach, (2) the first 100 robotic-assisted posterior THAs done by a surgeon learning robotic-assisted surgery (robotic posterior [RP]), and (3) the last 100 manual posterior (MP) THAs done by each surgeon (200 THAs) before adoption of novel techniques. Component position was measured on plain radiographs. Radiographic measurements were taken by 2 blinded observers. The percentage of hips within the surgeons’ “target zone” (inclination, 30°-50°; anteversion, 10°-30°) was calculated, along with the percentage within the “safe zone” of Lewinnek (inclination, 30°-50°; anteversion, 5°-25°) and Callanan (inclination, 30°-45°; anteversion, 5°-25°). Relative risk (RR) and absolute risk reduction (ARR) were calculated. Variances (square of the standard deviations) were used to describe the variability of cup position.

Results

Seventy-six percentage of MP THAs were within the surgeons’ target zone compared with 84% of FA THAs and 97% of RP THAs. This difference was statistically significant, associated with a RR reduction of 87% (RR, 0.13 [0.04-0.40]; P < .01; ARR, 21%; number needed to treat, 5) for RP compared to MP THAs. Compared to FA THAs, RP THAs were associated with a RR reduction of 81% (RR, 0.19 [0.06-0.62]; P < .01; ARR, 13%; number needed to treat, 8). Variances were lower for acetabulum inclination and anteversion in RP THAs (14.0 and 19.5) as compared to the MP (37.5 and 56.3) and FA (24.5 and 54.6) groups. These differences were statistically significant (P < .01).

Conclusion

Adoption of robotic techniques delivers significant and immediate improvement in the precision of acetabular component positioning during the learning curve. While fluoroscopy has been shown to be beneficial with experience, a learning curve exists before precision improves significantly.  相似文献

Background

To our knowledge, no study has assessed the ability of rigid patient positioning devices to afford arthroplasty surgeons with ideal acetabular orientation throughout surgery. The purpose of this study is to use robotic arm–assisted computer navigation to assess the reliability of pelvic position in total hip arthroplasty performed on patients positioned with rigid positioning devices.

Methods

A prospective cohort of 100 hips (94 patients) underwent robotic-guided total hip arthroplasty in the lateral decubitus position from the posterior approach, 77 stabilized by universal lateral positioner, and 23 by peg board. Before reaming, computed tomography–templated computer software generated true values of pelvic anteversion and inclination based on the position of the robot arm registered to the patient’s preoperative pelvic computed tomography.

Results

Mean alteration in anteversion and inclination values was 1.7° (absolute value, 5.3°; range, ?20° to 20°) and 1.6° (absolute value, 2.6°; range, ?8° to 10°), respectively. And 22% of anteversion values were altered by >10° and 41% by >5°. There was no difference between hip positioners used (P = .36). Anteversion variability was correlated with body mass index (P = .02).

Conclusion

Despite the use of rigid patient positioning devices—a lateral hip positioner or peg board—this study reveals clinically important malposition of the pelvis in many cases, especially with regard to anteversion. These results show a clear need to pay particular attention to anatomic landmarks or computer-assisted techniques to assure accurate acetabular cup positioning. Patient positioning should not be solely trusted.  相似文献

Background

This study compares the differences in acetabular component position, leg length discrepancy, and hip offset between the anterior and posterior approach. A novel method is applied to determine the acetabular anteversion using the C-arm tilt angle for the anterior approach.

Methods

Hundred consecutive anterior total hip arthroplasties were matched according to gender, body mass index, and age to a cohort of 100 primary total hip arthroplasties operated on through a posterior approach. Postoperative radiographs were analyzed to determine cup inclination, cup anteversion, leg length discrepancy, and hip offset.

Results

The mean inclination was 40.8° (range 33°-48°) and 45.1° (range 33°-55°) for the anterior and posterior approach, respectively. Using the new C-arm tilt plane technique, an average acetabular anteversion of 18.4° (range 11°-26°) was achieved with the anterior approach compared with 23.6° (range 8°-38°) with the posterior approach. Hundred percent cups in the anterior group and 81% in the posterior group fell within the safe zone (P < .001). There was no difference in the overall hip offset between the operated side and the contralateral side for the anterior (P = .074) and posterior (P = .919) group. There was no difference in leg length discrepancy between the 2 approaches (P = .259).

Conclusion

Intraoperative fluoroscopy-assisted direct anterior approach was associated with improved acetabular component positioning. However, no benefit was shown with regards to restoration of hip offset or leg length.  相似文献

Background

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with post-traumatic extra-articular deformity (EAD) is difficult to manage using conventional instrumentation techniques. In this study, we evaluate whether accelerometer navigation system can be a valuable option to make accurate bone resections and restore the neutral mechanical axis in complex TKA patients with EAD.

Methods

From May 2015 to June 2017, 18 consecutive TKA were performed in 18 patients with knee osteoarthritis with associated EAD. An accelerometer-based navigation system was used to guide tibial and femoral resection in the coronal and sagittal plane. Postoperative lower limb alignment in coronal plane and component position in coronal and sagittal plane was measured through full-leg weight-bearing X-ray. Clinical score were recorded using the Knee Society Score at the final follow-up.

Results

The mean hip-knee-ankle angle was 0.9° ± 1.4° varus alignment. The coronal alignment of the femoral component was 89.2° ± 1.9°, and the coronal alignment of the tibial component was 89.4° ± 2.1°. The sagittal alignment of the femoral component was 93.2°± 1.9°, and the sagittal alignment of the tibial component was 84.4° ± 3.1°. At the final follow-up, the Knee Society Score was 89 points (range, 82-100), and the functional score was 86.7 points (range, 60-100). No intraoperative and postoperative surgical complications were reported using this technology.

Conclusion

Accelerometer-based navigation is accurate in achieving neutral mechanical alignment and optimal implant position after TKA in patients with EAD. This system should be considered a valuable option to the more complex technique of computer navigation or robotic surgery.  相似文献

Background

Cup anteversion and inclination are important for avoiding implant impingement and dislocation in total hip arthroplasty. However, functional cup anteversion and cup inclination also change as the pelvic sagittal inclination (PSI) changes. Therefore, PSI in both supine and standing positions was measured in a large cohort in this study.

Methods

A total of 422 patients (median age, 61; range, 15-87) who underwent total hip arthroplasty were the subjects of this study. There were 83 patients with primary osteoarthritis (OA), 274 patients with developmental dysplasia–derived secondary OA, 48 patients with osteonecrosis, and 17 patients with rapidly destructive coxopathy (RDC). Preoperative PSI in supine and standing positions was measured by automated computed topography segmentation and landmark localization of the pelvis followed by intensity-based 2D-3D registration, and the number of cases in which PSI changed more than 10° posteriorly was calculated. Hip disease, sex, and age were analyzed if they were related to a PSI change of more than 10°.

Results

The median PSI was 5.1° (interquartile range, 0.4°-9.4°) in supine and ?1.3° (interquartile range, ?6.5° to 4.2°) in standing position. There were 79 cases (19%) in which the PSI changed more than 10° posteriorly from supine to standing. Elder age and patients with primary OA and RDC were revealed to be the related factors.

Conclusion

PSI changed more than 10° posteriorly from supine to standing in 19% of cases. Age and diagnosis of primary OA and RDC were the significant factors for the posterior rotation.  相似文献

Background

Highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) liners in total hip arthroplasty (THA) have demonstrated decreased wear rates, resilience to cup orientation, and reduced osteolysis compared to conventional polyethylene. Sequential irradiation and annealing below the melting temperature is unique compared to most HXLPE which is irradiated and remelted. This study purpose is to provide minimum 5-year femoral head penetration rates of sequentially annealed HXLPE in primary THA.

Methods

A retrospective review of a prospectively collected database identified 198 consecutive, cementless primary THAs utilizing sequentially annealed HXLPE (X3; Stryker, Mahwah, NJ). Operative technique was standardized. Radiographs were analyzed utilizing the Martell method with minimum 5-year and 1-year radiographs as baseline to minimize the initial bedding-in period.

Results

Seventy-seven hips with minimum 5-year follow-up were analyzed. Mean steady state linear and volumetric head penetration rates were 0.095 mm/y and 76 mm3/y, respectively. Volumetric head penetration was significantly less for 32-mm compared to 36-mm (P = .028). In addition, less head penetration was observed for ceramic 32-mm heads at nearly half the rate compared to cobalt-chromium 36-mm heads (P ≥ .092). No correlations existed between penetration rates and age, body mass index, University of California Los Angeles Activity Level, polyethylene thickness, cup inclination, or anteversion (P ≥ .10). No radiographic osteolysis was observed.

Conclusion

Surprisingly, linear head penetration rates of sequentially annealed HXLPE were nearly identical to the osteolysis threshold for conventional polyethylene and greater than reports of irradiated and remelted HXLPE. Furthermore, these data corroborate reports that HXLPE is resilient to cup orientation and demographic variables. Longer term follow-up is recommended.  相似文献

Purpose

Reduction and fixation in femoral neck fracture in young patients have a problem of nonunion requiring additional procedure like valgus osteotomy but fixation devices are technically difficult for inexperienced surgeons. We aims to assess the results of valgus osteotomy in femoral neck fracture in our setup.

Methods

We report a series of 20 patients of higher Pauwel's angled fracture of femoral neck fracture presenting late wherein for valgus osteotomy was added to reduction fixation secured with a commonly available 135° dynamic hip screw and plate.

Results

Femoral neck fractures united in 16 patients (80%). Excellent to good results (Harris hip score >80) were seen in 70% patients. Angle of correction of preoperative Pauwels has been changed from 68.3 to 34.3.

Conclusion

135° dynamic hip screw and plate provides rigid internal fixation after valgus osteotomy and being a more familiar fixation device simplifies the procedure with good results.  相似文献

Introduction

Upper limb orthoses worn during functional tasks are commonly used in pediatric neurologic rehabilitation, despite a paucity of high-level evidence.

Purpose of the Study

The purpose of this study was to investigate if a customized functional wrist orthosis, when placed on the limb, leads to an immediate improvement in hand function for children with cerebral palsy or brain injury.

Methods

A 2-group randomized controlled trial involving 30 children was conducted. Participants were randomized to either receive a customized functional wrist orthosis (experimental, n = 15) or not receive an orthosis (control, n = 15). The box and blocks test was administered at baseline and repeated 1 hour after experimental intervention, with the orthosis on if randomized to the orthotic group.

Results

After intervention, there were no significant differences on the box and blocks test between the orthotic group (mean, 10.13; standard deviation, 11.476) and the no orthotic group (mean, 14.07; standard deviation, 11.106; t[28], ?0.954; P = .348; and 95% confidence interval, ?12.380 to 4.513).

Discussion

In contrast to the findings of previous studies, our results suggest that a functional wrist orthosis, when supporting the joint in a ‘typical’ position, may not lead to an immediate improvement in hand function.

Conclusions

Wearing a functional wrist orthosis did not lead to an immediate improvement in the ability of children with cerebral palsy or brain injury to grasp and release. Further research is needed combining upper limb orthoses with task-specific training and measuring outcomes over the medium to long term.  相似文献

Introduction

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) usually affects both sensory and motor function of hands and feet, resulting in impaired skilled hand function (e.g., typing a keyboard). However, quantitative and objective evaluations for this condition have not been established.

Purpose of the Study

We evaluated skilled hand function using a kinematic analysis and investigated relationships among hand kinematic function and the clinical sensory and motor features of CIPN.

Study Designs

Clinical measurement.

Methods

Twelve CIPN patients and 12 age-matched control participants were enrolled. We recorded their reach and grasp movements using a three-dimensional measurement system, and calculated the normalized jerk of these movements as quantitative indexes of skilled hand function. Additionally, we used the number of sequential hand grip–release cycles in 10 seconds as an evaluation of clinical motor function.

Results

Our kinematic analyses revealed significant difference in normalized jerk of grasp movement (CIPN: 3.7 ± 0.2, control: 3.4 ± 0.1; P = .005), but this was not the case for reach movement (CIPN: 2.5 ± 0.1, control: 2.5 ± 0.2; P = .43), indicating that the distal part of the forearm is particularly affected in CIPN. Such disturbed grasp movement was directly correlated with poor scores on the hand grip–release test and the sensory tests.

Discussion

We revealed deficit impaired hand function objectively and quantitatively in CIPN patients using a kinematic analysis. Further, the hand grip test could represent such kinematic abnormality and could be useful for evaluating skilled hand function of CIPN patients.

Conclusions

Our kinematic and clinical measurements objectively and quantitatively evaluate skilled hand function in individuals with CIPN in clinical settings.

Introduction

A salvaged limb is one that has undergone a major traumatic injury, followed by repeated surgical attempts in order to avoid amputation. Psychological recovery for individuals with lower extremity limb salvage has been examined in a number of studies. However, psychosocial reactions for individuals with upper extremity (UE) limb salvage are understudied in the literature.

Purpose of the Study

The purpose of this study was to explore the process of psychosocial adaptation for 3 trauma cases after UE limb salvage.

Methods

The Reactions to Impairment and Disability Inventory was used to assess psychosocial adaptation. Physical function outcomes (pain, range of motion, edema, sensation, and dexterity) are presented. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand measure was used to assess perceived disability. Medical and rehabilitation history are discussed for each case, in order to provide in-depth understanding of the impact of these injuries.

Results

Reactions to injury varied across the cases; however, outcomes suggest that psychosocial adaptation may be influenced by the experience of pain, the ability to participate in valued roles and activities, and having a supportive social network.

Discussion

For this population, therapists may consider emphasizing pain management, focusing on client-centered goals and interventions, and facilitating peer support. Providers should closely monitor patients for signs of poor adaptation, such as hand-hiding behaviors.

Conclusions

This study is among the first to examine psychological outcomes for the UE limb salvage population. Future research would be beneficial to provide deeper understanding of the psychosocial challenges for these individuals.  相似文献

Background

Recently, the importance of acetabular component positioning in the Lewinnek “safe zone” in preventing prosthetic dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been questioned. The purpose of this study was to determine the proportion of acetabular components within the Lewinnek safe zone between primary and revision THAs that have sustained a dislocation vs matched controls without a dislocation event.

Methods

This was a retrospective, institutional review board–approved investigation of THAs performed at our institution or referred to our institution between 1997 and 2013. Ninety-six primary THAs and 60 revision THAs that sustained a dislocation were included and matched 1:1 based on age, gender, and body mass index with nondislocated controls. Acetabular component inclination and anteversion were performed using Martell Hip Analysis Suite and compared between the 2 cohorts for both primary and revision THAs.

Results

The proportion of acetabular components within the safe zone for both inclination and anteversion was 23 of 96 (24%) in primary THA dislocators vs 48 of 96 (50%, P < .001) in controls. The proportion of acetabular components within the safe zone for both inclination and anteversion was 28 of 60 (47%) in revision THA dislocators vs 40 of 60 (66%, P = .03) in controls.

Conclusion

Patients sustaining a dislocation following a primary or revision THA had acetabular components less frequently positioned within the safe zone compared to control patients. This study suggests acetabular component positioning remains an important variable in decreasing the risk of dislocation following primary and revision THA.  相似文献

Background

This study used EOS imaging of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients, with and without predating spinal fusion, to investigate (1) the impact of spinal fusion on acetabular implant anteversion and inclination, and (2) whether more extensive spinal fusion (fusion starting above the thoracolumbar junction or extension of fusion to the sacrum) affects acetabular implant orientation differently than lumbar only spinal fusion.

Methods

Ninety-three patients had spinal fusion (case group), and 150 patients were without spinal fusion (controls). None of the patients experienced dislocation. The change in sacral slope (SS) and cup orientation from standing to sitting was measured.

Results

Mean SS change from the standing to sitting positions was ?7.9°in the fusion group vs ?18.4°in controls (P = .0001). Mean change in cup inclination from the standing to sitting positions was 4.9°in the fusion group vs 10.2°in controls (P = .0001). Mean change in cup anteversion from standing to sitting positions was 7.1°in the fusion group vs 12.1°in controls (P = .0001). For each additional level of spinal fusion, the change in SS from standing to sitting positions decreased by 1.6(95% confidence interval [CI], 2.2073-1.0741), the change in cup inclination decreased by 0.8(95% CI, 0.380-1.203), and the change in cup anteversion decreased by 0.9(95% CI, 0.518-1.352; P < .001 in all cases).

Conclusion

Patients with spinal fusion demonstrated less adaptability of the lumbosacral junction. Longer spinal fusion or inclusion of the pelvis in the fusion critically impacts hip-spine biomechanics and significantly affects the ability to compensate in the standing-to-sitting transition.  相似文献

Background

The acetabular component orientation in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is of critical importance to the good clinical results. However, traditional widely used cup alignment guides for cup placement are reported to be relatively unreliable. The present study aims at comparing a novel cup alignment guide, which can be attached to our anatomical pelvic plane (APP) pelvic lateral positioner for reducing discrepancies in sagittal pelvic tilt and indicate a targeted cup angle based on the APP, with a conventional cup alignment guide.

Methods

The subjects were 136 hips of 136 patients who underwent unilateral THA using the APP positioner. The procedure was performed with the conventional cup alignment guide (conventional group; 60 hips) and with the novel cup navigator (mechanical navigator group; 76 hips). Postoperative cup angles and discrepancies of postoperative cup angles (inclination and anteversion angles) from the targeted angles were compared between the 2 groups to evaluate the usefulness of these navigators.

Results

The mean cup angles in the conventional group were 39.0° ± 5.3° for the inclination angle and 21.7° ± 6.4° for the anteversion angle, whereas those in the mechanical navigator group were 40.6° ± 3.2° and 18.3° ± 4.6°, respectively (P = .018, P < .0001). The discrepancies from the targeted angles were 3.5° ± 3.1° for the inclination angle and 4.6° ± 3.4° for the anteversion angle in the conventional group and 2.3° ± 2.3° and 3.2° ± 2.7°, respectively, in the mechanical navigator group (P = .020, P = .012).

Conclusion

The mechanical cup navigator easily attachable to the APP positioner is a tool that can improve the accuracy of cup placement in a simple, economical, and noninvasive manner in THA via the lateral position.  相似文献
