Background

We aimed to determine correlations between the hip joint center position and pelvic dimensions and whether the three-dimensional position of the original hip joint center could be estimated from pelvic landmarks in dysplastic and normal hips.

Methods

We reviewed the pelvic CT scans of 70 patients (70 hips) with hip dysplasia. Seventy-seven normal hips were used as controls. The hip joint center coordinates (Cx, Cy, and Cz) and pelvic dimensions were measured with reference to the anterior pelvic plane coordinate system. Multiple regression formulas were used to estimate the original hip joint center.

Results

The hip center for both dysplastic and normal hip was highly correlated with the distance between the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) in the coronal plane (r = 0.76 and 0.84), the distance from the ASIS to the pubic tubercle in the sagittal plane (r = 0.81 and 0.76), and distance from the pubic tubercle to the most posterior point of the ischium on the transverse plane (r = 0.76 and 0.78). The hip joint center could be estimated within a 5-mm error for more than 80% of hips on their respective axes in both dysplastic and normal hips.

Conclusions

The three-dimensional position of the original hip joint center was correlated with pelvic dimensions, and can be estimated with substantial accuracy using pelvic landmarks as references. Although these results are preliminary, this estimation method may be useful for surgeons planning total hip arthroplasties.  相似文献

Background

Hypertrophic labrum in dysplastic hip has been frequently reported and is known as limbus in developmental dysplasia of the hip. However, hypertrophic labrum without hip dysplasia has not been reported to date. The purpose of this study was to define hypertrophic labrum and to investigate the prevalence and clinical significance of an abnormally hypertrophic labrum in non-dysplastic hips.

Methods

Between 2007 and 2014, direct CT arthrography was performed in 464 patients (470 hips) who had chronic groin pain and positive impingement or Faber test. There were 189 male (192 hips) and 275 female (278 hips) patients. The mean age was 46.8 years (range, 16–74 years). The hypertrophic labrum was defined as a labrum wider than two standard deviations away from the mean. Surgical correlation of hypertrophic labrum was obtained in cases with hip arthroscopy by a single surgeon.

Results

Seventeen hips (3.6%) were found to have a hypertrophic labrum which had a mean width of 11.2 mm (±1.1) (range, 9.8–14.1 mm). The average width (±SD) of the labrum without hypertrophy was 5.5 mm (±2.4) (range, 2–9.8 mm). Arthroscopic findings of the hypertrophic labrum included fissure and longitudinal tear at the chondrolabral junction and they were associated with chondral abnormality adjacent to the lesion.

Conclusions

Hypertrophic labrum without hip dysplasia is not rare with a high incidence of tears. Care should be taken during arthroscopic access to the hip joint in patients with this morphologic variation as iatrogenic damage can occur more easily.

Background

The number of hemodialysis patients has been progressively increasing in our country. On the other hand, chronic hip arthropathy associated with long-term hemodialysis is a devastating problems affecting patients' quality of life. In our previous study, we proposed a classification system for radiological abnormalities seen in hemodialysis-related hip lesions. The purpose of the study was to propose the surgical strategy for hip disorders caused by long-term hemodialysis.

Methods

Patients with a history of hemodialysis for more than 10 years, 191 hip lesions in 165 consecutive patients who visited our institute due to hip symptoms. Various abnormalities were identified in 116 out of 191 hips. A retrospective assessment of the patient record and radiographs was performed for the included subjects examining the natural course of the disease process as well as the results of surgical treatment.

Results

Seventy-six hip lesions (69.0%) were conservatively managed at the time of the initial visit. Surgeries were performed for 75 hips (64.7%) during the study period. Among those, surgical treatment was indicated for 40 hips at the time of the initial visit. On the other hand, surgeries were performed for 35 hips during the subsequent follow-up period due to progression of the disease process.

Conclusions

Based on the analysis of our surgical experiences by the retrospective chart review, we have established a flowchart of the treatment strategy for chronic hip arthropathy in long-term hemodialysis patients.

Background

Placement of acetabular cup in the dysplastic hip is a challenging procedure. Using bulk femoral head autograft to increase the bony coverage of the cup is one of the techniques, which have been described. The impact of cup position on cup and autograft survival is a controversial issue. We aimed to determine whether the position of cementless acetabular cup used in conjunction with femoral head autograft in dysplastic hips affected the autograft-host incorporation with its final radiographic appearance and the cup survivorship into the second decade.

Methods

Thirty-eight dysplastic hips with varying Crowe types in 31 patients (30 women and one man) were included. The mean age was 47 years (range, 29–64 years) and the mean follow-up was 20.3 years (range, 14.8–25.9 years). The initial postoperative and final radiographs were evaluated. The survival rate of the cups was analysed using Kaplan–Meier statistics and the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate the effect of variables (Crowe type, radiographic initial host bone coverage over the cup and position of the cup) on survivorship.

Results

The acetabular cups were positioned anatomical in 27/38 hips according to Ranawat measurement technique. Trabecular bridging at graft–host interface was seen in all cases at an average 22.1 months. Neither acetabular cup position nor initial host bone coverage over acetabular cup less than 50% had any significant effect on either cup survival or final radiographic appearance of the graft. The 20-year cup survival rate without aseptic revision was 66% (95 CI, 52%–84%). No revision was performed due to graft resorption.

Conclusion

Twenty-year survival rate of the cementless cup combination with femoral head autograft showed no significant differences whether it was placed at high or anatomic hip centre. The final radiographic appearance of the autograft was not affected from either the cup location or the initial radiographic horizontal host bone coverage.  相似文献

Background

The purposes of this study were to quantitatively analyze osteophyte formation of the distal radius following scaphoid nonunion and to investigate how fracture locations relate to osteophyte formation patterns.

Methods

Three-dimensional surface models of the scaphoid and distal radius were constructed from computed tomographic images of both the wrists of 17 patients' with scaphoid nonunion. The scaphoid nonunions were classified into 3 types according to the location of the fracture line: distal extra-articular (n = 6); distal intra-articular (n = 5); and proximal (n = 6). The osteophyte models of the radius were created by subtracting the mirror image of the contralateral radius model from the affected radius model using a Boolean operation. The osteophyte locations on the radius were divided into 5 areas: styloid process, dorsal scaphoid fossa, volar scaphoid fossa, dorsal lunate fossa, and volar lunate fossa. Osteophyte volumes were compared among the areas and types of nonunion. The presence or absence of dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) deformity was also determined.

Results

The distal intra-articular type exhibited significantly larger osteophytes in the styloid process than the distal extra-articular type. Furthermore, the proximal type exhibited significantly larger osteophytes in the dorsal scaphoid fossa than the distal extra-articular type. Finally, the distal intra- and extra-articular types were more associated with DISI deformity and tended to have larger osteophytes in the lunate fossa than the proximal type.

Conclusion

The pattern of osteophyte formation in the distal radius determined using three-dimensional computed tomography imaging varied among the different types of scaphoid nonunion (distal extra-articular, distal intra-articular, and proximal). The results of this study are clinically useful in determining whether additional resection of osteophytes or radial styloid is necessary or not during the treatment of the scaphoid nonunion.  相似文献

Purpose

To identify factors influencing overall radiologic changes in the distal radioulnar joint after ulnar shortening osteotomy (USO) in patients with idiopathic ulnar impaction syndrome.

Materials and methods

A total of 310 patients who had undergone USO between May 2007 and December 2013 were included in this retrospective case–control study. The patients were classified into two groups (with or without radiologic findings of new arthritic changes), after which the following factors were analyzed: 1) demographic factors; 2) radiologic aspects, including ulnar variance (UV), morphological DRUJ type (classified according to Tolat et al.), and union period after USO; and 3) operative aspects, including the triangular fibrocartilage complex degeneration type, use of a parallel double-blade saw, type of plate used for fixation, and plate position on the volar or dorsal ulnar surface.

Results

Group 1 (no arthritic changes) consisted of 243 patients, whereas Group 2 (arthritic changes) consisted of 67 patients. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the presence of lunate cystic changes, amount of shortening, and the union period were significantly associated with newly developed arthritic changes in the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) after USO. The morphological DRUJ type was not a significant factor. Arthritic changes were significantly more prevalent in patients with a shortening amount >4.5 mm and a union period <3.25 months.

Conclusions

Radiologic arthritic changes after USO, were associated with the presence of cystic changes in the lunate, a shortening amount (>4.5 mm), and early bony union (<3.25 months).

Background

The purpose of this study is to clarify interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities of the three-dimensional (3D) templating of total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Methods

We selected preoperative computed tomography from 60 hips in 46 patients (14 men and 32 women) who underwent primary THA. To evaluate interobserver and intraobserver reliability, 6 orthopedic surgeons performed 3D templating twice over a 4-week interval. We investigated intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and percent agreement of component size and alignment, comparing morphological differences in the hip. Reproducibility was also compared between groups with osteoarthritis (OA) and those with osteonecrosis (ON).

Results

The interobserver reliabilities for mean cup size and stem size were excellent, with ICC = 0.907 and 0.944, respectively. The value was significantly higher in the ON group than in the OA group. In the OA group, the reliability of cup size and alignment decreased in hips with severe subluxation. Percent agreement of stem size was significantly different between the shapes of femoral canal. For intraobserver reliability, the mean ICC of cup size was 0.965 overall, while the value in the ON group was significantly higher than in the OA group. The mean ICC of stem size was 0.972 overall.

Conclusion

Computed tomography–based 3D templating showed excellent reliability for component size and alignment in THA. Deformity of the affected joint influenced the reliability of preoperative planning.  相似文献

Background

Femurs of dysplastic hips exhibit specific abnormalities, and use of modular or specially designed components is recommended. An anatomic short stem was previously designed specifically for dysplastic hips using 3-dimensional data acquired from dysplastic patients. To investigate effects of stem geometry on bone remodeling, we undertook a prospective, randomized study of patients who had undergone 1-stage bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) with the anatomic short stem on one side and a conventional straight stem on the other.

Methods

The study included 36 patients who underwent the above THA procedure. We assessed bone mineral density as well as the presence of cancellous condensation or bony atrophy due to stress shielding based on the analysis of Gruen's zones and newly defined equal-interval zones, at an average follow-up period of 9.2 years.

Results

All stems were bone ingrown stable. Cancellous condensation was observed more proximally, and areas of bone atrophy were narrower on the anatomic short stem side than on the straight stem side. Bone mineral density values reflected results of cancellous condensation and stress shielding and were higher in more proximal zones on the anatomic short stem side than on the straight stem side.

Conclusion

Although radiographic results indicated good midterm outcomes of THA with both stems, the loading pattern differed. The anatomic short stem achieved its design purpose in terms of proximal fixation and load transfer and led to better preservation of the proximal femur.  相似文献

Background

Treatment with a brace is the first choice as conservative treatment via the containment method for Legg–Calvé–Perthes disease (LCPD). The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical outcomes and influential factors of conservative treatment with the non-weight-bearing abduction brace for LCPD.

Methods

One hundred thirty hips in 130 patients were examined in this study. The mean age at onset was 7.0 years (3.3–12.4 years) and the mean follow-up period was 8.4 years (4.1–17.6 years). The extent of necrosis and lateral collapse of the femoral head were evaluated using the Catterall classification and the lateral pillar classification, respectively. Radiological outcome was assessed as good (classes I and II), fair (III), and poor (IV), according to the modified Stulberg classification.

Results

Radiographic outcome at final follow-up was good in 82 hips (63%), fair in 40 hips (31%), and poor in 8 hips (6%). Multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that major influential factors for good outcomes were as follows: age at onset, lateral pillar classification, and Catterall classification. From the receiver operating characteristic curve, the cut-off value for age at onset was 8.4 years old to obtain good outcomes. Hips with Catterall group I and II and lateral pillar group A and B had significantly better results.

Conclusion

Patients younger than 8.4 years old at onset with lateral pillar group A or B or Catterall group I or II showed good outcomes with a non-weight-bearing abduction brace for LCPD. These results show that alternative treatment, such as surgery, may be another option for patients who are not included in the above groups.  相似文献

Background

Complications associated with re-implantation of total hip arthroplasty (THA) after resection arthroplasty for the treatment of primary septic hip arthritis or infected THA and bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) are not well-documented. Furthermore, no comparison has been made between septic arthritis (SA) and infected THA and BHA. We divided subjects into two groups for evaluation: a SA group and an infected THA or BHA group.

Methods

Nineteen hips in 19 patients (12 in the SA group, 7 in the infected THA or BHA group) with an average of 77 months of follow-up from the time of re-implantation THA were retrospectively evaluated.

Results

The average Japanese Orthopaedic Association hip score improved from 50 points (range, 30 to 73 points) preoperatively to 80 points (range: 64 to 96 points) at the time of the final follow-up (p < 0.01). Intra- and postoperative complications occurred in 11 cases, including intraoperative fracture in 1 hip, deep infection in 6 hips, dislocation in 7 hips, and septic loosening of acetabular component in 2 hips. Following re-implantation, further surgical revision was required in four cases. Two revisions were performed for recurrent infection: one patient had recurrent dislocation of one hip, and one patient had recurrent infection and dislocation. The number of hips with relapsed infection in the infected THA or BHA group (5 hips) was significantly higher than that in the SA group (1 hip) (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

Re-implantation after septic hip arthritis or infected THA or BHA was an effective treatment for improving the activity of daily life, especially the gait function. Furthermore, 94.7% of patients were free of infection at the latest follow-up. However, the rate of recurrence of infection was 31.6%, and re-implantation after resection arthroplasty following infected THA or BHA led to a lower rate of infection control than that after primary SA.  相似文献

Background

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical results, survivorship and quick rehabilitation effects of modified surgery of percutaneously drilling and decompression through femoral head and neck fenestration combined with compacted autograft for early femoral head necrosis.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective cohort study with 83 hips performed percutaneous decompression through femoral head and neck fenestration (Modified group) combined with autogenous bone grafting for early ONFH. For comparison, another 90 hips treated with conventional core decompression with bone grafting (Control group).

Results

Median follow-up was 36 months (32–44 months). The length of incision, blood loss in operation, incision drainage, operation time and hospital stays in Modified group had better results than those in control group (P < 0.001). There were four cases in Modified group and five cases in control group had complications (P = 0.9). The VAS score and range of hip motion were better in Modified group during hospital stays summarily (P < 0.05). The average Harris score in modified group was higher than the control group at the first month (P = 0.005), while at other time of follow-up the two groups were with similar Harris scores (P > 0.05). There were 22 hips progressed to stage III in Modified group, while 23 hips progressed to stage III in control group (P = 0.89). The clinical success rate in Modified group were 86.7%, compared with that in control group (87.8%) ( P= 0.84).

Conclusion

Percutaneous drilling and decompression through femoral head and neck fenestration combined with compacted autograft we reported showed an good surgical effect with a quick rehabilitation and had similar short-term effects compared with the conventional core decompression in treatment of early ONFH.  相似文献

Objective

Enhanced recovery has been utilized to decrease length of stay and cost in bariatric surgery. We have recently focused efforts on pre-operative education with regards to discharge on the first post-operative day. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of pre-operative education on discharge timing and readmission rates.

Methods

A retrospective review was conducted after revising discharge expectation education. Patients undergoing first time bariatric operations were included. Early group education focused on average patient stay of 2 postoperative days. Revised education informed patients they could go home on the first post-operative day.

Results

A total of 125 patients met inclusion criteria. Implementation of preoperative education was associated with a decrease in mean LOS and greater percentage of patients discharged on post-operative day one. There was no difference in readmission and complication rates.

Conclusion

Effective pre-operative education can decrease length of stay in first time laparoscopic bariatric surgery.  相似文献

Objective

To evaluate the midterm clinical and radiological outcomes of the medial approach using two intervals for developmental hip dysplasia (DDH).

Methods

The study involved 62 hips of 47 patients (41 girls, 6 boys) treated with medial approach for DDH from 1999 to 2010. The age of the patients at surgery was 18.7 ± 2.25 months. Follow up of the patients was 11.3 ± 3.07 years. The age of the patients at the last follow up was 12.6 ± 1.74 years. According to the Tönnis classification, 13 hips were grade II, 27 hips were grade III and 22 hips were grade IV. Patients were evaluated according to Omeroglu radiological criteria and modified McKay functional criteria. The presence of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip was questioned using the KalamchiMacEwen classification.

Results

Radiologically, forty eight (77%) hips were evaluated as “excellent”, 8 (13%) hips as “good” and 5 (8%) hips as “fair plus” and 1 (%2) hip as “fair minus”. Two (3%) patients had type 1 temporary AVN and one (1%) patient had type 4 AVN with coxa magna and overgrowth of the greater trochanter. According to McKay functional criteria, 56 (90%) hips had “excellent” and 6 (10%) had “good” results. Two (3.2%) hips of one patient had to be reoperated with Salter osteotomy and femoral shortening + derotation osteotomy.

Conclusion

Medial approach using two separate intervals for tenotomy and capsulotomy does not jeopardize the medial circumflex or the femoral vessels and yields satisfactory midterm results for children 18 months old with dysplasia of the hip.

Background

Recommendations for minimum cup coverage based on anteroposterior radiographs are widely used as an intraoperative guide in total hip arthroplasty for patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of two-dimensional (2D) measurement of coverage with three-dimensional (3D) coverage and to identify parameters for determining the 3D coverage during surgery.

Methods

We developed a technique to accurately reproduce the intraoperative anatomic geometry of the dysplastic acetabulum and measure the 3D cup coverage postoperatively. With this technique, we retrospectively analyzed the difference and correlation between 2D and 3D measurements of native bone coverage in 35 patients (45 hips) with Crowe II or III DDH. Linear regression analysis was performed to examine the intraoperative parameters related to coverage. The mean follow-up period was 7.64 years (range, 6.1-9.5 years).

Results

There was a significant difference and a fair correlation between 2D and 3D measurements. The 2D measurement underestimated the 3D cup coverage by approximately 13%. An excellent linear relationship was noted between the 3D coverage/uncoverage and the height of the uncovered portion (R2 = 0.8440, P < .0001). There was no case of loosening or revision during the follow-up.

Conclusion

Current minimum cup coverage recommendations based on 2D radiograph measurements should not be used as a direct intraoperative guide. The height of the uncovered portion is a useful parameter to determine the 3D coverage during surgery.  相似文献

Background

Numerous studies have reported on clinical significant volumes of material loss and corrosion at the head-stem junction of metal-on-metal (MOM) hips; less is understood about metal-on-polyethylene (MOP) hips. We compared the effect of bearing type (MOM vs MOP) on taper material loss for a hip system of a single design.

Methods

In this cohort study, we recruited retrieved MOM (n = 30) and MOP (n = 22) bearing hips that were consecutively received at our center. We prospectively collected associated clinical and imaging data. We measured the severity of corrosion and volumes of material loss at each head taper surface and used multivariate statistical analysis to investigate differences between the 2 bearing types.

Results

The median rate of material loss for the MOM and MOP groups was 0.81 mm3/y (0.01-3.45) and 0.03 mm3/y (0-1.07), respectively (P < .001). Twenty-nine of 30 MOM hips were revised for adverse metal reactions, compared with 1 of 22 MOP hips.

Conclusion

MOP hips lost significantly less material from their taper junctions than MOM hips. Our results can reassure patients with MOP Pinnacle hips that they are unlikely to experience clinically significant problems related to material loss from the taper junction.  相似文献

Background

Since Sugioka transtrochanteric anterior rotational osteotomy (ARO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) changes the morphology of the proximal femur, total hip arthroplasty (THA) after previous ARO is considered a technically demanding procedure. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinicoradiologic outcomes of THA after ARO with those of THA without any antecedent surgery for ONFH.

Methods

Twenty-four hips in 20 patients who underwent cementless THA after ARO (postosteotomy group) were retrospectively reviewed and compared with patients who underwent cementless THA without any antecedent surgery for ONFH during the same period (primary group). In the postosteotomy group, the mean duration from ARO to THA was 19.7 years. All patients were followed for at least 5 years (mean, 8.3 years; follow-up rate, 78.5%). A clinical assessment was performed preoperatively and at the latest follow-up using the Harris Hip Score. A radiographic examination was performed at 3 months after THA and at the latest follow-up.

Results

The Harris Hip Score at the latest follow-up in the postosteotomy group was equivalent to that in the primary group, but longer operation time and greater intraoperative blood loss were observed in the postosteotomy group. There were no significant differences in postoperative complications, including dislocation (2 hips in each group). The leg lengthening in the postosteotomy group tended to be longer. No hips showed implant malpositioning, loosening, or required any revision surgery.

Conclusion

The clinicoradiologic outcomes of THA after ARO are considered to be comparable with those of THA without any antecedent surgery for ONFH.  相似文献

Background

The Elite-Plus stem has two shape variations: roundback and flanged. The correlation between the radiographic results and stem geometry has not been previously investigated. The objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term primary total hip arthroplasty results using Elite-Plus stems, and the effect of stem geometry on radiographic distal femoral cortical hypertrophy.

Methods

We retrospectively evaluated, radiographically, 156 patients (173 hips) who underwent total hip arthroplasty between April 1998 and November 2005, and were followed up for >5 years, postoperatively. Radiographic factors affecting distal femoral cortical hypertrophy were analysed using multivariable logistic regression analysis.

Results

The mean follow-up period was 11.6 (5–17.8) years. During follow-up, femoral components were revised in 7 hips; one was revised due to aseptic loosening. Another femoral component was loosened and waiting for revision. The 10- and 15-year survival rates for aseptic stem loosening were 100% and 98.1% (95% CI: 92.5–99.5), respectively. Distal femoral cortical hypertrophy occurred in 23 hips (14.8%), and more often with roundback type (34.1%) than with flanged type (7.2%). Distal femoral cortical hypertrophy was observed in 34.8% of hips with valgus alignment, 11.3% with neutral alignment, and 12.5% with varus alignment. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that roundback stem shape and valgus stem alignment significantly affected the occurrence of distal femoral cortical hypertrophy.

Conclusions

The Elite-Plus stem has excellent long-term clinical and radiographic results in Japanese patients. The occurrence of distal femoral cortical hypertrophy significantly depends on the shape and alignment of Elite-Plus stems.  相似文献

Background

A single center retrospective chart review was performed examining the ability of a novel radiofrequency probe (Margin Probe; Dune Medical Devices, Caesarea, Israel) for intraoperative margin assessment to reduce the number of reexcisions in breast-conserving surgery.

Methods

Reexcision rates were evaluated in one-hundred and twenty consecutive patients before and after the institution of the device. Utility of the device was evaluated by comparing intraoperative feedback with postoperative pathology reports.

Results

Two hundred and forty patient subjects were reviewed in total. There was a significant decrease in the re-lumpectomy rate (50%, p = 0.039) in the device group without increasing the total volume of tissue resected.

Conclusions

The use of the MarginProbe device as an adjunct to the standard of care resulted in reduction of positive margins after lumpectomy and the number of re-excisions, significantly improving outcomes in breast-conserving surgery at our institution.  相似文献

Background

Few studies investigate gait characteristics and symmetry of developmental dysplasia of the hip patients (Crowe II and III) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) whose leg length discrepancy (LLD) is within 20 mm. Our study aimed to explore whether gait analysis parameters in these patients can return to the level of unaffected people and how bodies compensate for the discrepancy.

Method

A total of 45 patients who underwent cementless THA and 20 healthy controls were involved in this study prospectively. Group 1 includes patients whose LLD is <10 mm and group 2 includes patients whose LLD is 10-20 mm. Gait analysis was performed during 5-year midterm postoperative follow-up.

Result

The parameters, particularly the range of motion (ROM) in the hip, in both experimental groups (1 and 2) were significantly lower than healthy control group. For the nonoperated side, group 1 displayed significantly reduced ROM in the hip and knee compared with the age-matched controls. This was not observed in group 2. Greater bilateral symmetry can be seen in group 1 compared with group 2.

Conclusion

Despite LLD being limited to within 20 mm, THA patients in both groups showed a less efficient gait than that of healthy controls on 5-year midterm follow-up. The increased ROM in the nonoperated hip may act as a compensatory mechanism. LLD of 10 mm may be a cutoff value to assess whether compensation occurs in the contralateral limb. Reconstruction of equal limb length is recommended when surgeons perform THA for dysplastic hips.  相似文献

Background

Our study compares 30-day vs. 90-day mortality following colorectal cancer surgery (CRS), and examines hospital performance ranking based on this assessment.

Methods

Mortality rates were compared between 30 vs. 90 days following CRS for patients with stage I-III colorectal cancers from the National Cancer Database (2004–2012). Risk-adjusted hierarchical regression models evaluated hospital performance based on mortality. Hospitals were ranked into top (10%), middle (80%), and lowest (10%) performance groups.

Results

Among 185,464 patients, 90-day mortality was nearly double the 30-day mortality (4.4% vs. 2.5%). Following risk adjustment 176 hospitals changed performance ranking: 39% in the top 30-day mortality group changed ranking to the middle group; 37% of hospitals in the lowest 30-day group changed ranking to the middle 90-day group.

Conclusions

Evaluation of hospital performance based on 30-day mortality is associated with misclassification for 15% of hospitals. Ninety-day mortality may be a better quality metric in oncologic CRS.  相似文献
