Background
The aim of this study was to investigate the postoperative outcomes of cementless Total hip arthroplasty (THA) following failed internal fixation for femoral neck and intertrochanteric fractures.Method
Ninety-six cementless THAs for failed internal fixation after femoral neck fracture (59, group I) and intertrochanteric fracture (37, group II) with a minimum follow-up of 3 years were analyzed. Clinical and radiologic evaluations were performed on all patients.Results
The intraoperative blood loss and operating time were significantly increased in group II (p?=?0.001, p?=?0.001, respectively). Harris hip score at last follow-up was significantly improved in group I (p?=?0.007) but, there were no differences in hospital stay, Koval score at last follow-up, and perioperative complications between both groups. Long femoral stems for diaphyseal fitting were frequently used in group II (32/37, 86%) (p?=?0.001). Radiographically, none of the acetabular cups showed evidence of migration, loosening. All cases showed stable fixation of the femoral stem at last follow-up.Conclusions
Outcomes of cementless THA following failed internal fixation for femoral neck and intertrochanteric fractures were satisfactory; increased intraoperative blood loss, operating time, and requirement of long femoral stem should be considered in the latter type of fracture. 相似文献2.
Background
The main purpose of this study is to introduce our surgical technique and report surgical outcomes for percutaneous cable fixation in the treatment of subtrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods
Between May 2013 and April 2017, 51 patients with subtrochanteric femoral fractures treated with closed intramedullary nailing and percutaneous cable fixation were enrolled in this study. Postoperative angulation, union rate, time from injury to union, and femoral shortening were also evaluated to assess radiologic outcomes. Clinical outcomes, including range of hip flexion, walking ability, and Harris hip score at the last follow-up were evaluated.Results
Average coronal and sagittal angulation after surgery were 0.9 (range 0–5) and 0.3 (range 0–5), respectively. There was no postoperative angulation of more than 5°. Average shortening of the femur at 1-year follow-up was 2.7?mm (range 0–15). Bone union was achieved in 50 patients (98.0%) and average time to union was 18.6 weeks (range 12–48). Hip flexion, walking ability and Harris hip score at the last follow up were 115.6° (90–120), 7.9 (5–9), and 88.3 (65–100), respectively.Conclusion
Percutaneous cerclage cable fixation can provide a greater likelihood of achieving anatomical reduction and increased stability of fracture, while preserving biology around the fracture site. Thus, percutaneous cerclage cable fixation can be an effective surgical technique for the treatment of complex subtrochanteric fractures. 相似文献3.

Introduction
Young patients with femoral neck fractures are optimally treated with reduction and stable fixation, while patients over the age of sixty-five are often treated with arthroplasty. This study analyzes in-hospital outcomes associated with total hip arthroplasty, hip hemiarthroplasty and internal fixation for treatment of femoral neck fractures in patients aged 45–64.Methods
Records of patients between the ages of 45–64, from 2002 to 2014, sustaining femoral neck fractures and treated with internal fixation, hip hemiarthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty were obtained from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS). Examined variables were age, sex and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). Outcome measures included hospital length of stay (LOS), complications, and inpatient hospitalization charge.Results
From 2002–2014 74,678 femoral neck fractures were available for analysis. THA use increased from 5.3% of operatively managed fractures in 2002 to 22.3% of operatively managed fractures in 2014 (p?<?0.0001). Patients undergoing THA had higher hospital cost, higher in hospital complication rates and longer length of stay than patients undergoing internal fixation (p?<?0.0001). The in-hospital mortality for patients undergoing a hip hemiarthroplasty was higher (1.2%) than either total hip arthroplasty (0.2%) or internal fixation (0.5%) (P?=?0.007).Conclusion
This study demonstrates that the use of total hip arthroplasty in treatment of femoral neck fractures in patients from the age of 45–64 increased 4.2-fold over the study period. This treatment is associated with increased hospital cost, length of stay and complications. Additionally, as age increased in our study population, there was a stepwise increase in the use of arthroplasty, and it appears that hemiarthroplasty is being used with a different patient population. 相似文献4.

Background
It is common practice when placing cannulated screws within the femoral head when treating femoral neck fractures to avoid the thread-forms from crossing the fracture line. Despite the widespread use of cannulated screws in internal fixation of femoral neck fractures, there is no study to our knowledge that describes the ideal length of thread-forms.Purpose
The purpose of this study is to determine the thread length that will maximize purchase within the femoral head while minimizing risk of crossing the fracture line. Additional analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with the maximal possible length of treads in minimally and non-displaced femoral neck fractures.Methods
We performed a retrospective study of all patients treated for a minimally or non-displaced femoral neck fracture from April 1, 2004 through December 31, 2017. Only patients who had received a pre-operative CT or MRI scan were included. Fixation was then templated using radiographs and the distance from the subchondral bone to the fracture line was then measured.Results
The study included 127 patients. The average estimated length of lag screw threads was 33.2?±?6.67?mm, with lower quartile of 29.1?mm and higher quartile of 37.2?mm. The median was 32.0?mm and most frequently encountered estimate was 29?mm. Estimated lag screw size did not differ significantly based on age or BMI, but both height (p?<?0.001) and race (0.04) were positively correlated with estimated lag screw size and males had longer measurements compared to females, 37.2?±?7.0?mm vs 31.4?±?5.7?mm (p?<?0.001), respectively.Conclusion
In conclusion, we propose an additional lag screw thread form with length 26.0?mm to capture 90% of femoral neck fractures. 相似文献5.
Objectives
Iatrogenic injury of the Profunda Femoris Artery (PFA) at time of hip fixation surgery can increase morbidity and mortality and prolong the hospital stay. This is an injury that tends to pass unnoticed as a cause of postoperative deterioration despite being frequently reported in the literature. Our study aims to describe the anatomy of the PFA in relation to the medial femoral cortex with specific emphasis on its orientation relative to the position of a sliding hip screw side plate construct. By doing so we are able to present clear guidance to orthopaedic surgeons on how to avoid iatrogenic PFA injury at the time of hip fracture fixation.Methods
Using Computed Tomography Angiographic (CTA) studies, the course of the PFA in relation to the medial femoral cortex was traced in 44 patients (28 males and 16 females) with mean age of 65.6 years. Coronal and axial CT sections were cross-linked to specify the position of the PFA at 1?cm intervals.Results
The course of the artery could be divided into three parts relative to a fixed reference point. Proximal and distal parts of the artery were in a safer position in comparison to the middle part of the artery that was found very close to the femoral cortex and along the coronal axis of the femur (mean angle 2.9° from the femoral coronal axis and 13.8?mm from the medial femoral cortex). Using the commercially available side plate constructs, this part of the artery corresponded to the distal part of the plate (third and fourth holes).Conclusion
Special attention needs to be practiced by the operating surgeon while drilling into the third and fourth holes of the side plate. 相似文献6.

Objectives
Improved fixation techniques with optional use of bone cements for implant augmentation have been developed to enhance stability and reduce complication rates after osteosynthesis of femoral neck fractures. This biomechanical study aimed to evaluate the effect of cement augmentation on implant anchorage and overall performance of screw-anchor fixation systems in unstable femoral neck fractures.Methods
Ten pairs of human cadaveric femora were used to create standardized femoral neck fractures (Pauwels type 3 fractures; AO/OTA 31-B2) with comminution and were fixed by means of a rotationally stable screw-anchor (RoSA) system. The specimens were assigned pairwise to two groups and either augmented with PMMA-based cement (Group 1, augmented) or left without such augmentation (Group 2, control).Biomechanical testing, simulating physiological loading at four distinct load levels, was performed over 10.000 cycles for each level with the use of a multidimensional force-transducer system. Data was analysed by means of motion tracking.Results
Stiffness, femoral head rotation, implant migration, femoral neck shortening, and failure load did not differ significantly between the two groups (p?≥?.10). For both groups, the main failure type was dislocation in the frontal plane with consecutive varus collapse). In the cement-augmented specimens, implant migration and femoral neck shortening were significantly dependent on bone mineral density (BMD), with higher values in osteoporotic bones. There was a correlation between failure load and BMD in cement-augmented specimens.Conclusion
In screw-anchor fixation of unstable femoral neck fractures, bone-cement augmentation seems to show no additional advantages in regard to stiffness, rotational stability, implant migration, resistance to fracture displacement, femoral neck shortening or failure load. 相似文献7.

Objectives
Hip dislocations are highly morbid injuries necessitating prompt reduction and post-reduction assessment for fracture and incarcerated fragments. Recent literature has questioned the need for initial pelvic radiographs for acute trauma patients, resulting in computed tomography (CT) scans as the initial evaluation. This study investigates the relationship between choice of pre-reduction imaging and treatment of acute hip dislocations.Design
Retrospective Case-Control.Setting
Single Academic Level I Trauma Center.Methods
All acute hip dislocations from 2011 to 2016 were reviewed. Exclusion criteria were diagnosis of dislocation at another facility, death prior to reduction, emergent surgical or ICU intervention, and periprosthetic dislocation. Patients were grouped by those with only a radiograph prior to reduction, Group I, versus those with a pre-reduction CT scan, Group II. The primary outcomes were time to reduction and the acquisition of a second CT scan.Results
Of the 123 hip dislocations identified, 35 patients were excluded, mostly for transfer with a known dislocation. Group I included 29 patients and Group II included 59 patients. The mean time to reduction was 74?min in Group I and 129?min in Group II for a difference of 55?min (p?<?0.001). The rate of repeat CT scan was 0 in Group I versus 48 (81%) in Group II (p?<?0.001).Conclusion
Initial trauma pelvic radiography prior to CT is still important in the setting of suspected hip pathology to decrease time to hip reduction and unnecessary radiation exposure.Level of evidence

Background and purpose
The treatment of paediatric distal radius diaphyseal metaphyseal junction (DRDMJ) fractures is a challenge. The purpose of this study was to introduce a new operative approach at the proximal “safe zone” of the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) to treat paediatric DRDMJ fractures and analyse the safety and efficacy of antegrade elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN) fixation.Methods
Thirty paediatric patients with unstable and displaced DRDMJ fractures were treated by antegrade ESIN fixation from November 2015 to September 2017. We created the entrance site at the posterolateral side of the proximal radius and 2?4?cm distal to the articular surface of the radius, using the ESIN to immobilise the fractures. In the study, we reviewed patient demographics, complications, time until removal, and intraoperative time for hardware removal.Results
Complete fracture healing was achieved between 6 and 12 weeks after surgery. Except for 3 patients presenting with irritation of the skin, we did not observe any complications. Radiologically, no secondary displacement, nail migration, loss of fixation, consolidation delay, non-union, or refracture was noted.Conclusions
The antegrade ESIN fixation is a minimally invasive, easy-to-learn, alternative operative method to treat paediatric DRDMJ fractures.Level of evidence

Introduction
Hip fractures are a common problem of the elderly population with significant mortality and morbidity. The choice between total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemiarthroplasty depends on multiple factors including comorbidity. The Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) provides a unique opportunity to study mortality and revision rates in this population. Linkage with government databases allow for in-depth research into the factors that influence risk of revision surgery and death in the hip fracture patient.Patients and methods
Data was linked between SHAR, Statistics Sweden and the National Board of Health and Welfare. Data was collected on 38,912 patients who received a fracture-related hip arthroplasty between 2005 and 2012. A multistate analysis was performed and three states were identified: primary hip surgery and alive (state 1), revision after primary hip surgery (state 2) and death (state 3). These were marking points in the longitudinal outcome study.Results
38,912 patients who received an arthroplasty for an acute hip fracture were included. By the end of the study period 1309 (3.4%) of these patients underwent a revision and 17,365 (45.1%) patients died. Patients with THA had a reduced risk of death from primary operation compared to hemiarthroplasty (HR?=?0.49) and a decreased revision risk (HR?=?0.69). Female patients had a statistically significant reduced mortality (HR?=?0.6) compared to men. There was no statistically significant difference in risk of revision surgery between direct lateral and posterior approach.Conclusion
We identified an influence of type of surgery, sex, age and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index (ECI) on risk of revision and mortality. Males, greater comorbidity burden and older patients had higher mortality risks. The posterior approach did not have a significant influence on revision risk. Further research could include all patients who had reoperation(s) to further strengthen our findings. Patients who had a THA had lower revision rate and mortality. The latter is likely due to selection. 相似文献10.

Introduction
The annual incidence of proximal femoral fractures is 100–150/100,000 and continues to increase with an aging population. Cut-out of hip screws after fracture fixation has been quoted as 8% in the literature. The tip-apex distance (TAD) is the strongest predictor for cut-out after operative fracture stabilisation.The aim of this study was to evaluate the novel ADAPT system (Adaptive Positioning Technology, Stryker, USA), a navigation device for intramedullary nailing of trochanteric fractures and its effect on optimising the TAD. This is the first clinical study to evaluate this new technology.Methods
The study group of 36 consecutive patients with a pertrochanteric fracture underwent intramedullary nailing for fracture fixation using ADAPT technology, while the matched control group underwent conventional Gamma-3-nailing. Matching criteria included fracture classification, gender and age. We measured the operative time and the postoperative TAD in anteroposterior (AP) and lateral radiographs of the 72 patients.Results
The mean TAD using ADAPT was 16.9?mm (range 8.4–33.7?mm) compared with 24.9?mm (range 14.6–40.2?mm) in the reference group treated without ADAPT. Using the ADAPT system significantly improved (p?<?0.0005) the accuracy of lag screw placement but had no effect on operating time in fixation of femoral pertrochanteric fractures.Conclusion
Working with the novel ADAPT system for positioning the lag screw using the Gamma-3-nail led to a statistically highly significant reduction of the TAD compared to the reference group (p?<?0.001). The ADAPT system proved to be a very useful device in achieving higher surgical standards for the treatment of trochanteric fractures with intramedullary nailing. It enables higher accuracy in screw positioning and therefore better placement of the implant. 相似文献11.
Introduction
The reported rate of nonunion of distal femoral fractures varies in the literature. Several risk factors for nonunion following lateral locked plating (LLP) have been described. We aimed to study the rate of nonunion, and risk factors thereof, in a Swedish population where fragility fractures are common. A secondary aim was to study risk factors for reoperation for any cause.Patients and Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the hospital files and radiographs of all adult patients admitted to our institution with a distal femoral fracture, from 2004 through 2013. In cases treated with LLP, medical comorbidities, fracture characteristics and implant characteristics were analysed as potential risk factors for nonunion, defined as any surgical intervention to improve healing.Results
There were 8 cases (4%, 95%CI: 1.8–8.1%) of nonunion in 191 fractures treated with LLP. Patients with nonunion were younger: 62 vs. 81 years (p?=?0.009) and more commonly had open fractures: 38% vs. 9% (p?=?0.034). No patient 80 years or older had a surgical intervention for nonunion. Lower age was independently associated with reoperation for any cause, but not for nonunion.Discussion
The low rate of nonunion in this study is probably due to the fact that we present data from a complete cohort from a geographic catchment area. Referral centres with a high proportion of young patients with high-energy injuries, may be better suited for studies on risk factors for nonunion, due to higher statistical power. However, results from such institutions may not be generalizable to the more common low-energy fractures. 相似文献12.

Introduction
Hip fracture surgery is associated with a considerable amount medical and surgical complications, which adversely impacts the patient’s outcome and/or increases costs. We evaluated what risk factors were associated with the occurrence of early readmission due to surgical complications after hip fracture surgery.Material and methods
A nationwide database with 68,800 hip fracture patients treated between 1999 and 2011 was studied to uncover the association of readmissions with co-morbidities, fracture types, different hospital types and treatment methods using the Cox proportional hazards model.Results
Early readmission within three months due to hip fracture surgery complications occurred at a rate of 4.6%. Increased occurrence of readmission was found among patients with: heavy alcoholism (HR 1.38; 95% CI: 1.23–1.53); Parkinson’s disease (PD; HR 1.22; 95% CI: 1.05–1.42); pre-existing osteoarthritis (HR 2.02; 95% CI: 1.83–2.23); rheumatic disease (HR 1.44; 95% CI: 1.27–1.65); as well as those with a fracture of the femur neck, depression, presence of a psychotic disorder, an operative delay of at least three days, or previous treatment with total hip arthroplasty.Conclusion
Our results indicate that there are several factors associated with an increased risk of early readmission. We suggest that in the presence of these factors, the surgical treatment method and postoperative protocol should be carefully planned and performed. 相似文献13.

Purpose
To assess the visibility of both the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and the deep structures of the iliotibial tract (ITT) by means of MRI in paediatric patients. To determine reproducibility for such measurements.Methods
Knee MRI data from patients aged <18a without lesions of the capsule or ligaments, fractures, bone edemas, foreign material or motion artifacts were analyzed by two musculoskeletal radiologists separately and twice. The visibility of the different parts of the ALL was determined (femoral, meniscal, tibial parts). Similarly, the visibility of the different parts of the deep ITT was determined: deep attachments of the ITT to the distal femur (insertion near septum, supracondylar insertion and retrograde insertion) and capsulo-osseous layer of the ITT.Results
We studied 61 cases (36 female, 25 male). Age was 15 years (±2.3). Interobserver agreement was high. Cohen’s Kappa was 0.864 (95%CI: 0.715–1.000) for the tibial part of the ALL and 1.0 for the femoral part of the ALL. For the deep attachments of the ITT to the distal femur Kappa was 0.828 (95%CI: 0.685–0.971). Regarding intraobserver agreement, Cohen’s Kappa was 1.0 for the femoral part of the ALL and 0.955 (95%CI: 0.867–1.000) for the tibial part of the ALL. For the deep attachments of the ITT to the distal femur Cohen’s Kappa was 0.896 (95%CI: 0.782–1.000).Conclusion
On the basis of our findings it is concluded that the presence of the anterolateral structures of the knee can be determined by MRI in a pediatric population with substantial inter- and intraobserver agreement. This is true for both the ALL and the deep structures of the ITT.Level of evidence

Introduction
Tibial pilon fractures are often treated with initial external fixation followed by delayed definitive fixation. It has been postulated that the external fixator pin site may correlate with infection risk. The purpose of this study was to determine whether external fixator pin-site distance from definitive implants impacts the risk of deep infection in pilon fractures.Materials and methods
A retrospective cohort study was completed at a single level 1 trauma center. All patients ages 15–65 who underwent open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of a distal tibial fracture (AO/OTA Classification 43) from 2007 to 2013 were included. The final study population was 133 patients. The impact of external fixation pin location (relative to the definitive implant location) on postoperative infection was measured.Results
As a continuous variable, the distance between the closest pin site and plate was 62.1 ± 44.1?mm in the infected cohort and 62.2 ± 49.7?mm in the non-infected cohort (p?=?0.991). Further analysis was performed by grouping the distances into less than 0?mm (i.e. overlapping), >0.0 – 25.0?mm, >25.0 – 50.0?mm, >50.0 – 75.0?mm, >75.0 – 100.0?mm, and >100.0?mm of separation. No significant differences were noted with regards to the risk for infection.Conclusions
Staged care has been shown to be an effective treatment strategy for AO/OTA type 43 fractures. There are many variables to consider when placing an external fixator construct. In this cohort, pin site distance from definitive implant location was not associated with an increase in deep infections.Level of evidence

Background
This 10?year retrospective study of the NTDB is the first to describe trends in scapula fracture diagnosis frequency, epidemiology, injury mechanisms and the type of hospital where the condition is treated.Methods
Demographics, ISS scores, hospital data, mechanism of injury, complications, and hospital length of stay were recorded for patients with diagnosed scapula fractures (ICD-9, 811.0) recorded in the NTDB, v7.2 (2002–2012). Mean and standard deviation for continuous variables and proportions for binary variables are calculated.Results
The prevalence of scapula fractures in all patients submitted to the NTDB (2002–2012) was 1.74%. Between 2006–2007, the reported incidence doubled from 1% to 2.2%. There was a predominance of injury to white males (75% and 78% respectively). Forty-one percent were treated at a Level 1 trauma center and had a mean ISS of 20.1 (SD-11.8). Scapula fracture rates declined in patients 0–19 years and increased in the 60–79 and 80+ age groups. The increasing incidence of the aged population is also reflected in the increase of falls as the mechanism of injury in the elderly population.Conclusion
This study is the first to describe a full decade of scapula fracture epidemiology on a national scale. The number of diagnosed scapula fractures increased substantially in the NTDB between 2002-2012. Scapula fractures diagnosed in the geriatric demographic and fractures resulting from falls are both on the rise, whereas the reported incidence is decreasing in the younger demographic. Additionally, fractures as a result of motor vehicle accidents also decreased precipitously during the reported decade. 相似文献17.

Purpose
To examine the association between surgery delay and mortality in hip fracture patients with and without known comorbidity.Methods
We identified all patients with a first time hip fracture diagnose operated between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015 (n?=?36,552). As a measure of comorbidity we used Charlson Comorbidity Index stratified in categories: none (no registered comorbidities prior fracture), medium (1–2 points) and high (≥3 points).Results
No association between surgery delay, regardless of the threshold, and 30-days mortality was observed among patients with high level of comorbidity. Surgery delay of >24h vs. ≤24?h was associated with higher 0–30-days mortality in patients with medium level of comorbidity (adjusted HR: 1.12 (95% CI: 1.01 ; 1.24)). In addition, surgery delay was associated with up to 45% increased mortality in patients with none comorbidity prior surgery, although the confidence intervals were wide. Furthermore, surgery delay of >24?h (vs. <24?h) and >48?h (vs. ≤48?h) was associated with higher 31–90-days mortality among all patients (adjusted HR: 1.19 (95% CI: 1.10 ; 1.29) and 1.35 (95% CI: 1.16 ; 1.56), respectively), but in particular among patients with none (adjusted HR: 1.26 (95% CI: 1.08 ; 1.47) and 1.65 (95% CI: 1.26 ; 2.17), respectively) and medium (adjusted HR: 1.21 (95% CI: 1.07 ; 1.36) and 1.25 (95% CI: 1.00 ; 1.57), respectively) level of comorbidity at the time of surgery.Conclusions
There was an association between surgery delay and 30-days mortality in hip fracture surgery patients with none and medium level of comorbidity, whereas no such association was observed among hip fracture patients with a high comorbidity level. Surgery delay was associated with one year increased risk of dying in both patients with and without comorbidity prior surgery. 相似文献18.

Introduction
Femoral neck fractures are the most frequent fractures in the elderly and hemiarthroplasty is the treatment of choice. The objective of this multicenter study is to identify predictive factors of acetabular erosion after bipolar hemiarthroplasty (surgery between 1997 and 2007) in a mobile independent population during a follow-up of ten years.Materials and methods
Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. Inclusion criteria were: age >60 and <85 years, BMI?<?35, normal Abbreviated MiniMental Test score, ability to walk 0.8?km and live independently, non-pathological fracture, hip with no or minimal osteoarthritic changes, and availability of clinical and radiological follow-up. For each Patient were recorded: demographic data, comorbidities, time from fracture to surgery, characteristics of the implant, duration of surgery. Patients included underwent clinical and radiological follow-up.Results
Overall, 209 Patients met inclusion criteria. A press-fit implant was performed in 172 subjects; in contrast a cemented prosthesis was implanted in 37 patients. Nineteen patients underwent implant revision to total hip arthroplasty for acetabular erosion and pain. Classification of X-ray using Baker criteria showed a grade 0 in 54.5%, a grade 1 in 19.6%, a grade 2 in 18.1% and a grade 3 in 7.6%. Multivariate analysis revealed that the size of the femoral head (FH) was the only predictive factor of a higher risk of acetabular erosion. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve verified the risk of implant revision in Group 1 (FH sized >48?mm) and Group 2 (FH sized <48?mm). The probability of implant revision for acetabular erosion at ten years from surgery were 5.5% in Group 1 and 15.6% in Group 2.Conclusion
In bipolar hemiarthroplasty smaller head size lead to a polar wear implying a higher risk of acetabular erosion and migration; in our population this risk was consistent with the use of implant head <48?mm diameter. Considering the absolute risk of a smaller FH size, the surgeon must evaluate the accuracy of measurement of the caliber, since the size can be significantly underestimated. 相似文献19.
