A systematic review of combined pelvic and acetabular injuries

PurposeInjuries of both pelvic ring and acetabulum as rare very few articles are available in literature. There are no set protocols in defining the injury let alone defining early and definitive management strategies. This article is an attempt to encompass all available data to give us guidelines in managing these injuries.MethodsAn extensive literature review was carried out on PubMed/Medline, google scholar and Embase databases was done with the eligibility criteria of 1) Case series with a minimum of 20 cases. 2) The patient’s outcome reported. 3) Full article available. 4) Article in English. 5) Minimum Jadad score of 3. As per PRISMA guidelines the search was done and gradually filtered down to relevant articles which were 8 in number.ResultsThe incidence of these injuries range from 5 to 16%. The transverse acetabular fracture pattern is the commonest followed by associated both column fractures. There is equal propensity of Anteroposterior compression and lateral compression injuries. The injury mechanism appears to transmitted lateral force from the greater trochanter inwards with an implosion injury causing acetabular and pelvic injury as a continuum. The initial management is similar to managing pelvic ring injuries with focus on patient resuscitation, hemodynamic stabilization and temporary stabilization. The injury severity score and the mortality rates are comparable to isolated unstable pelvic ring injuries. Definitive management focuses on fixing the posterior pelvic ring first followed by the acetabular fracture and then the anterior pelvic ring. The displacement rates and outcome is worse than isolated acetabular injuries or pelvic injuries.ConclusionCombined Pelvic and acetabular injuries are complex injuries which need to be managed initially as we manage pelvic injury and later as we fix as an acetabular fracture meticulously.     

Acute total hip arthroplasty for older patients with acetabular fractures: A meta-analysis

ObjectiveMultiple treatment options for acetabular fractures in geriatric patients exist. However, no large-scale studies have reported the outcomes of acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) in this patient population. We systematically evaluated all available evidence to characterize clinical outcomes, complications, and revisions of acute THA for acetabular fractures in geriatric patients.MethodsMeta-analysis of 21 studies of 430 acetabular fractures with mean follow-up of 44 months (range, 17−97 months). Two independent researchers searched and evaluated the databases of Ovid, Embase, and United States National Library of Medicine using a Boolean search string up to December 2019. Population demographics and complications, including presence of heterotopic ossification (HO), dislocation, infection, revision rate, neurological deficits, and venous thromboembolic event (VTE), were recorded and analyzed.ResultsWeighted mean Harris Hip Score was 83.3 points, and 20% of the patients had reported complications. The most common complication was HO, with a rate of 19.5%. Brooker grade III and IV HO rates were lower at 6.8%. Hip dislocation occurred at a rate of 6.1%, 4.1% of patients developed VTE, deep infection occurred in 3.8%, and neurological complications occurred in 1.9%. Although the revision rate was described in most studies, we were unable to perform a survival analysis because the time to each revision was described in only a few studies. The revision rate was 4.3%.ConclusionsAcute THA is a viable option for treatment of acetabular fracture and can result in acceptable clinical outcomes and survivorship rates in older patients but with an associated complication rate of approximately 20%. Considering the limited treatment options, THA might be a viable alternative for appropriately selected patients.     

颗粒松质骨压紧植骨全髋关节置换术治疗创伤性髋关节炎的疗效

目的探讨颗粒松质骨压紧植骨全髋关节置换术(THA)治疗髋臼骨折继发创伤性髋关节炎的疗效。方法1998年12月-2005年5月,对15例髋臼骨折继发创伤性髋关节炎患者行颗粒松质骨压紧植骨THA,所有患者髋臼假体均采用骨水泥固定,颗粒骨均取自体骨,术后24h后开始被动活动,3个月后开始全负重锻炼。临床随访采用Harris髋关节评分(HSS)系统评分,对任何原因引起髋臼假体翻修均视为临床失败。根据Conn等影像学评价法观察颗粒骨长人情况,根据DeLee的三区法测量臼杯、骨水泥与移植骨间的界面宽度,臼杯的移位程度则依据其相对于泪点间线的距离而定。结果14例患者获得平均4．3年(1．0-7．5年)随访,HHS评分由术前平均42分(10-62分)提高到随访结束时平均84分(58-98分)。1例髋部有轻度疼痛,无患者行翻修手术。大部分髋部恢复了其正常的旋转中心,仅有2例高出对侧0．8 mm。大多数患者影像学表现稳定,2例在Ⅰ区和Ⅲ区出现进行性增宽的透亮带,1例在Ⅲ区出现非进行性增宽的透亮带。1例臼杯假体在术后7年出现明显移位(6 mm),但并没有行翻修手术。结论颗粒骨压紧植骨技术作为一种生物学髋臼重建方法,其联合THA治疗髋臼骨折后继发创伤性关节炎伴髋臼缺损的疗效令人满意,能够恢复髋关节的正常解剖和功能活动。     

髋臼内壁内移截骨全髋置换治疗成人髋臼发育不良的有限元分析及临床意义

目的 通过计算机辅助设计有限元分析,找寻髋臼内壁截骨的合适内移范围,为临床工作提供理论依据.方法 利用SolidWorks 2005软件,建立髋臼发育不良骨盆的三维模型,模拟髋臼内壁内移截骨术式,使髋臼内壁骨从未完全陷入盆腔内保持2 mm骨性接触处开始,逐渐内移至完全陷入盆腔内7 mm处,每隔1 mm为1个实验组,分成10个实验组.每组髋臼人为划成4个象限,分别对各组假体臼-骨界面间进行计算机模拟对比力学实验分析,测量出髋臼假体-骨界面间的Mises应力及剪切应力值,找寻出应力分布较为均匀的实验组.结果 Mises应力及剪切应力均有1个象限内的值较大,通过2次统计学分析计算,得出实验结果.结论 当髋臼内壁内移至未完全陷入盆腔内1 mm处到完全陷入盆腔内1 mm处的范围内,髋臼假体-骨界面间的应力分布均匀,最佳位置在完全陷入盆腔内1 mm处.     

Rotational acetabular osteotomy for acetabular dysplasia of the hip with a giant acetabular bone cyst: a case report

In acetabular dysplasia of the hip joint accompanied by a giant acetabular bone cyst, rotational acetabular osteotomy may cause serious complications, such as bone necrosis after surgery or fracture of the fragile acetabulum during the operation. In a patient with this condition, we performed a two-stage operation: first, autogenous bone grafting supplemented with hydroxyapatite filling, then rotational acetabular osteotomy (after new bone formation had been assured). Radiographs and CT scans showed favorable fusion of the grafted bone. Some 18 months after the second operation, arthrograms showed no inflow of contrast medium from the articular cavity into the bone cyst region, although this had been observed before treatment. Thus, an effective remodeling of bony congruency was indicated in the mobile acetabulum 5 years after the second operation. This two-stage operation appears to be useful for correcting acetabular dysplasia accompanied by a giant bone cyst and to carry a reduced risk of serious complications, such as deterioration of the articular surface of the acetabulum or necrosis of the translocated acetabulum.

[目的]探讨髋臼钛板加颗粒植骨治疗髋臼严重骨缺损的临床效果。[方法]应用该技术治疗27例患者，髋臼骨缺损分型（AAOS分类）Ⅰ型6例，ⅡC型4例，Ⅲ型17例；术前髋关节Harris评分平均37分，术后根据临床及x线进行评估。[结果]所有患者均采用该方法重建髋臼，术后假体脱位1例，原因是重建钛板前倾过多与大粗隆发生撞击，经凿去部分粗隆骨质消除撞击因素后治愈。其余病例无并发症，平均随访3a，Harris评分平均87分。X线无1例患者的髋臼骨床、移植骨、重建钛板和聚乙烯内衬交界面出现透亮带。[结论]髋臼钛板加颗粒植骨可有效修复髋臼骨缺损，为假体提供坚强的初始固定，具有恢复髋关节旋转中心的作用。     

全髋关节翻修术中髋臼骨缺损的分类和重建研究进展

在髋关节翻修术中,髋臼骨缺损的治疗具有相当的挑战性。术前的计划,缺损的辨认和稳固的重建是成功翻修手术的基础。应用自体骨和同种异体骨移植填充骨缺损,目前使用特殊的重建方法行髋臼重建已取得了一定的疗效。临床上髋关节翻修手术越来越多,因此有必要针对髋臼骨缺损建立系统的诊断和治疗程序。本文就髋臼骨缺损的分类和重建进展做一综述。     

髋臼骨折的手术治疗

移位髋臼骨折合并坐骨神经损伤

报告９例移位髋臼骨折合并坐骨神经损伤的治疗，其中单纯腓侧部损伤５例，联合腓侧部与胫侧部损伤４例。非手术治疗３例，手术治疗６例，平均随访２年，结果为手术治疗５例优良，１例可，非手术治疗２例疗效均不满意，表明手术治疗可有效复位骨折，去除神经外在压迫因素，对性质明确的神经损伤进行必要的松解和修复。本组坐骨神经损伤以腓侧部受累更为常见，腓侧部易受损伤的机理可能与某些局部解剖因素有关
