Background

Treatment for femoral neck fracture among patients aged 65 years or older varies, with many surgeons preferring hemiarthroplasty (HA) over total hip arthroplasty (THA). There is evidence that THA may lead to better functional outcomes, although it also carries greater risk of mortality and dislocation rates.

Methods

We created a Markov decision model to examine the expected health utility for older patients with femoral neck fracture treated with early HA (performed within 48 hours) vs delayed THA (performed after 48 hours). Model inputs were derived from the literature. Health utilities were derived from previously fit patients aged more than 60 years. Sensitivity analyses on mortality and dislocation rates were conducted to examine the effect of uncertainty in the model parameters.

Results

In the base case, the average cumulative utility over 2 years was 0.895 for HA and 0.994 for THA. In sensitivity analyses, THA was preferred over HA until THA 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were increased to 1.3× the base case rates. THA was preferred over HA until the health utility for HA reached 98% that of THA. THA remained the preferred strategy when increasing the cumulative incidence of dislocation among THA patients from a base case of 4.4% up to 26.1%.

Conclusion

We found that delayed THA provides greater health utility than early HA for older patients with femoral neck fracture, despite the increased 30-day and 1-year mortality associated with delayed surgery. Future studies should examine the cost-effectiveness of THA for femoral neck fracture.  相似文献

Background

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) provides a successful salvage option for failed acetabular fractures. The complexity of arthroplasty for a failed acetabular fracture will depend on the fracture pattern and the initial management of the fracture. Our objective was to compare the midterm outcome of THA between patients who presented with failed acetabular fractures following initial surgical or nonsurgical treatment.

Methods

Forty-seven patients underwent cementless THA ± acetabular reconstruction following failed treatment of acetabular fractures. Twenty-seven were initially treated by surgery (group A) and 20 had nonsurgical treatment (group B). Intraoperative measures, preoperative and follow-up clinical, radiological, and functional outcomes were compared between the 2 groups.

Results

The mean surgical time, blood loss, and need for blood transfusion were significantly less in group A (P < .05). Acetabular reconstruction to address cavitary or segmental defects was needed in a significantly higher number of patients in group B (P = .006). Significant improvement in modified Merle d'Aubigne and Oxford scores was seen postsurgery in both groups. Acetabular component survival with aseptic loosening as end point was 98%. Overall survival rate with infection, revision, or loosening as end point was 93% at a mean follow-up of 7 years ± 17 months.

Conclusion

THA for a failed acetabular fracture is greatly facilitated by initial surgical treatment. Although functional results and survivorship were similar in both groups, failed nonsurgical treatment in complex fractures is associated with migrated femoral head and extensive acetabular defects requiring complex acetabular reconstruction.  相似文献

Background

We are reporting on the minimum 5-year outcomes of patients who underwent revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a specific highly-porous titanium shell. We assessed (1) aseptic and all-cause survivorship; (2) functional outcomes; (3) complications; and (4) radiographic outcomes.

Methods

Two hospital databases were evaluated for patients who underwent revision THA due to component instability or aseptic loosening using a cementless highly-porous titanium shell between September 2006 and December 2011. This yielded 35 patients who had a mean age of 61 years (range 14-88 years). Patients had a mean follow-up of 6 years (minimum 5 years). All-cause and aseptic survivorship of the shell was calculated. Functional outcomes were assessed using the Harris Hip Score. We determined the incidence of postoperative complications and performed radiographic evaluation of pelvic radiographs from regular office visits.

Result

The aseptic survivorship of the acetabular component was 97% (95% confidence interval; 8.1-9.5). The all-cause survivorship of the acetabular component was 91% (95% confidence interval; 7.3-8.1). One patient had an aseptic failure and 2 patients had septic failures. The mean postoperative Harris Hip Score was 76 points (range, 61-91 points). Excluding the aseptic and septic failures, there was no osteolysis or progressive radiolucencies present on radiographic evaluation at final follow-up.

Conclusion

At a minimum of 5-year follow-up, the highly-porous titanium acetabular revision shell has excellent survivorship and functional outcomes. Although long-term follow-up is needed to further monitor these implants, the results are promising and demonstrate that this prosthesis may be an excellent option for patients undergoing revision THA.  相似文献

Background

Second-generation, metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (MoM THA) using a 28-mm head has shown favorable results compared with large head MoM THA. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term outcomes of cementless primary MoM THA with a 28-mm head and the incidence of osteolysis using computed tomography.

Methods

A total of 92 patients (53 men and 39 women) who underwent primary cementless MoM THA (114 hips) with a 28-mm head were enrolled in this study. Their mean age was 46.2 years at the time of surgery. The mean follow-up duration was 20 years. The Harris hip score, presence of thigh or groin pain, radiographic results, presence of peri-implant osteolysis, histologic analysis, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were evaluated.

Results

The mean preoperative Harris hip score of 50.5 improved to 85.1 at the final follow-up. Eight patients (8 hips) experienced groin pain, but none had thigh pain. Twelve revisions (6.2%) were performed including 10 hips for aseptic loosening with osteolysis and 2 hips for periprosthetic fracture around the stem. At 23 years, 91% of patients were free from revision of the acetabular component due to aseptic loosening and 90.1% were free from revision of both femoral and acetabular components due to any reason. Osteolysis was identified around the cup in 12 cases (10.5%) and around the stem in 7 cases (6.1%).

Conclusion

MoM THA with a 28-mm head showed a relatively low rate of aseptic implant loosening at a mean follow-up of 20 years.  相似文献

Background

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare, benign, painful proliferation of the synovium previously treated successfully with total hip arthroplasty (THA). Published results come from small series; therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the outcomes of THA in the setting of PVNS.

Methods

We identified 25 patients with histologically confirmed, diffuse PVNS who underwent THA between 1971 and 2013. Mean follow-up and age was 10 years and 39 years. Before arthroplasty, 16 patients (64%) had at least 1 surgical procedure (mean, 1; range, 1-3) to treat PVNS. Twenty (80%) patients had “active” disease and underwent synovectomy. No constrained acetabular components were used.

Results

The 10-year disease free-survival was 100%. Recurrence occurred in 1 patient at 24 years postoperatively. Nineteen patients (76%) sustained a complication (most commonly component loosening (n = 12 [48%]), and 16 required revision surgery. The 10-year revision-free survival was 66% for conventional polyethylene implants and 100% for highly cross-linked polyethylene devices. Mean Harris Hip Score improved significantly from 48 (range, 23-69) preoperatively to 78 (range, 47-96) postoperatively (P < .001).

Conclusion

THA in the setting of PVNS improves patient function with a low rate of local recurrence. Complication and revision rates are high in this series likely owing to the young and active patient population and the use of conventional polyethylene. Modern bearings theoretically reduce the risk of revision.  相似文献

Background

The aim of our study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of malseating of the acetabular liner in ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Methods

Outcomes for 160 ceramic-on-ceramic THAs, contributed by 116 women and 39 men, were evaluated. Clinical and radiographic measurements were obtained over a 5- to 15-year follow-up for analysis.

Results

Liner malseating was identified in 20% of cases. Outcomes for 32 cases with liner malseating (group A) were compared to outcomes for 128 joints with correct liner seating (group B). The Harris hip score at the last follow-up was 90.1 for group A and 89.6 for group B. Osteolysis was identified in 5 cases in group A (15.6%), compared to 3 cases in group B (P < .001). No significant between-group differences were identified with regard to ceramic fracture, audible squeaking, loosening of components, and revision THA. The mean annual liner wear rate was comparable between groups, 0.0045 mm/y for group A and 0.0039 mm/y for group B. The 10-year Kaplan-Meier survivorship, based on an end point of revision THA, was 100% for group A and 99.0% for group B.

Conclusion

Over a moderate-length follow-up of 5-15 years, malseating of the acetabular liner was not associated with negative clinical outcomes or THA survivorship. Malseating did increase the incidence of osteolysis, a risk factor for adverse effects. Long-term follow-up studies are needed to fully quantify the effects of malseating of the acetabular liner.  相似文献

Background

Prevention of dislocation after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) begins with patient preoperative assessment and planning.

Methods

We performed a literature search to assess historical perspectives and current strategies to prevent dislocation after primary THA. The search yielded 3458 articles, and 154 articles are presented.

Results

Extremes of age, body mass index >30 kg/m2, lumbosacral pathology, surgeon experience, and femoral head size influence dislocation rates after THA. There is mixed evidence regarding the effect of neuromuscular disease, sequelae of pediatric hip conditions, and surgical approach on THA instability. Sex, simultaneous bilateral THA, and restrictive postoperative precautions do not influence the dislocation rates of THA. Navigation, robotics, lipped liners, and dual-mobility acetabular components may improve dislocation rates.

Conclusions

Risks for dislocation should be identified, and measures should be taken to mitigate the risk. Reliance on safe zones of acetabular component positioning is historical. We are in an era of bespoke THA surgery.  相似文献

Background

We sought to evaluate the outcomes of cementless acetabular components used in patients with Crowe II and III dysplasia, and to compare outcomes between cups placed within vs outside of an “anatomic” zone. Our specific aims were to (1) plot hip centers in these patients at our institution to characterize “anatomic” vs “nonanatomic” positions, (2) evaluate the association between hip center and radiographic loosening, (3) determine whether hip center was associated with acetabular component revision, and (4) compare patient-reported outcome scores between groups.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed 88 primary cementless total hip arthroplasties at a mean follow-up of 10 years (range 2-26 years). Patients were 85% female, with a mean age of 44 years (range 28-61 years) and a body mass index of 27 kg/m2 (range 19-42 kg/m2). Medical records and radiographs were reviewed, and a survey was conducted for all patients. Anatomic hip center was defined using the 4-zone system, wherein centers are “anatomic” if they are <1 cm superior and <1 cm lateral to the approximate femoral head center. Cox proportional analyses were used to compare outcomes between groups.

Results

Seventy hips (80%) had an anatomic hip center. Anatomic hips had a lower incidence of radiographic acetabular loosening (0% vs 17%, P = .007) and cup revision (0% vs 28%, P = .0002). There were no differences in Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome and Joint Replacement Scores (96.2 ± 5 vs 91.9 ± 12, P = .7).

Conclusion

The incidence of aseptic loosening and cup revision were lower when hip center was <1 cm superior and 1 cm lateral to the approximate femoral head center.  相似文献

Background

Women seeking surgical intervention for their hip disorders will often find total hip arthroplasty (THA) presented as their only option. THA, when compared with hip resurfacing arthroplasty, removes substantially more bone-stock, limits range-of-motion, exhibits increased dislocation risk, and presents greater overall 10-year mortality rate. Despite these risks, most surgeons continue to select against women for hip resurfacing because registries notoriously report inferior survivorship when compared with men and THA.

Methods

We investigated the reasons for why resurfacing arthroplasty devices survive poorly in women to develop interventions which might improve hip resurfacing outcomes in women. Using these findings, we developed a series of surgical interventions to treat the underlying issues. Herein, we compare 2 study groups: women who received hip resurfacings before (group 1) and after (group 2) these interventions.

Results

Eight-year implant survivorship substantially improved from 89.6% for group 1 to 97.7% for group 2. Adverse wear-related failure, femoral component loosening, and acetabular component loosening were all significantly reduced in group 2, which we attribute to the implementation of our relative acetabular inclination limit guidelines, use of uncemented femoral fixation, and selection of the Tri-Spike acetabular component for supplemental fixation, respectively. Kaplan-Meier implant survivorship curves, grouped into 2-year time intervals, show that the disparity in failure rates between men and women is diminishing.

Conclusion

When experienced surgeons use refined and proper surgical technique, women show promise as excellent candidates for hip resurfacing as an alternative treatment for their debilitating hip conditions.  相似文献

Background

The incidence of hip fractures is growing with the increasing elderly population. Typically, hip fractures are treated with open reduction internal fixation, hemiarthroplasty, or total hip arthroplasty (THA). Failed hip fracture fixation is often salvaged by conversion THA. The total number of conversion THA procedures is also supplemented by its use in treating different failed surgical hip treatments such as acetabular fracture fixation, Perthes disease, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and developmental dysplasia of the hip. As the incidence of conversion THA rises, it is important to understand the perioperative characteristics of conversion THA. Some studies have demonstrated higher complication rates in conversion THAs than primary THAs, but research distinguishing the 2 groups is still limited.

Methods

Perioperative data for 119 conversion THAs and 251 primary THAs were collected at 2 centers. Multivariable linear regression was performed for continuous variables, multivariable logistic regression for dichotomous variables, and chi-square test for categorical variables.

Results

Outcomes for conversion THAs were significantly different (P < .05) compared to primary THA and had longer hospital length of stay (average 3.8 days for conversion THA, average 2.8 days for primary THA), longer operative time (168 minutes conversion THA, 129 minutes primary THA), greater likelihood of requiring metaphysis/diaphysis fixation, and greater likelihood of requiring revision type implant components.

Conclusion

Our findings suggest that conversion THAs require more resources than primary THAs, as well as advanced revision type components. Based on these findings, conversion THAs should be reclassified to reflect the greater burden borne by treatment centers.  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

The demand for conversion of prior hip surgery to total hip arthroplasty (conversion THA) is likely to increase as a function of increasing US hip fracture burden in addition to its application in managing other conditions. Thus, outcome analysis is warranted to better inform value-based reimbursement schemes in the era of bundled payments.

Methods

Via Current Procedural Terminology codes, the National Surgical Quality Improvement Project data files were queried for all patients who underwent primary THA and conversion of previous hip surgery to THA from 2005 to 2014. To better understand the isolated effect of procedure type on adverse outcomes, primary and conversion cohorts were then propensity-score matched via logistic regression modeling. Comparisons of the study's primary outcomes were drawn between matched cohorts. Statistical significance was defined by a P-value less than or equal to .05.

Results

Relative to the primary THA group, the conversion THA group had statistically greater rates of Center Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) complications (7.5% vs 4.5%), non-home bound discharge (19.6% vs 14.7%), and longer length of hospital stay. Conversion THA was associated with increased likelihood of CMS complications (odds ratio 1.68, confidence interval 1.39-2.02) and non-home bound discharge (odds ratio 1.41, confidence interval 1.25-1.58). No statistically significant differences in mortality and readmission were detected.

Conclusion

The elevated risk for CMS-reported complications, increased length of hospital stay, and non-home bound discharge seen in our study of conversion THA indicates that it is dissimilar to elective primary THA and likely warrants consideration for modified treatment within the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement structure in a manner similar to THA for fracture.  相似文献

Background

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most successful orthopedic surgeries performed in the last 50 years. However, controversies still exist between conducting 1- or 2-stage bilateral THA.

Methods

Using PubMed, Ovid, Embase, and Cochrane library databases, we searched for papers written between January 1995 and October 2015 that contained the following search terms: “one-stage or two-stage” or “simultaneous or staged,” and “hip” and “arthroplasty or replacement.” A meta-analysis was conducted with the collected pooled data about major and minor systemic complications, surgical complications, and other perioperative data associated with 1- and 2-stage bilateral THA. Statistical analysis was performed by the Mantel-Haenszel method, and the fixed effect model was used to analyze data.

Results

There were 13 studies with 17,762 patients who underwent 1-stage bilateral THA and 46,147 patients who underwent 2-stage bilateral THA. One-stage bilateral THA had a lower risk of major systemic complications, less deep venous thrombosis, and shorter operative time compared with 2-stage bilateral THA. There were no significant differences in death, pulmonary embolism, cardiovascular complication, infections, minor complications, and other surgical complications between procedures.

Conclusion

One-stage bilateral THA was superior to 2-stage bilateral THA in terms of major systemic complication, deep venous thrombosis, and surgical time compared with 2-stage bilateral THA. However, this study does not encourage performing 1-stage over 2-stage bilateral THA. Higher evidence level studies are necessary for further analysis.  相似文献

Background

When surgeons reconstruct hips with a high dislocation related to severe developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in total hip arthroplasty (THA), archiving long-term stable implant fixation and improving patient function and satisfaction remain challenging. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 10-year outcomes of transverse subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy in cementless, modular THA in Crowe type IV-Hartofilakidis type III DDH.

Methods

We reviewed 62 patients (76 hips) who underwent cementless THA with transverse subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy from 2002-2010. There were 49 women and 13 men with a mean age of 38.8 years, all of whom had Crowe type IV DDH. Mean follow-up period was 10 years. The acetabular cup was implanted in placement of the anatomical hip center in all hips.

Results

The mean Harris Hip Score significantly improved from 38.8 points to 86.1 points. Similarly, modified Merle d'Aubigne and Postel Hip Score, Hip dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, and SF-12 also significantly improved. The mean limb length discrepancy was reduced from 4.3 cm to 1.0 cm. At mean follow-up of 10 years, there were 3 cases of postoperative dislocation, 2 cases of transient nerve palsy, 1 case of nonunion, and 4 cases of intraoperative fracture. Revision surgery was performed in 2 patients due to isolated loosening of acetabular component and femoral stem, respectively.

Conclusion

Our data demonstrated that the cementless, modular THA combined with transverse subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy was an effective and reliable technique with high rates of successful fixation of the implants and satisfactory clinical outcomes.  相似文献

Background

In this review, we (1) evaluated the effect of adult spine deformity (ASD) and its surgical correction on patients who had a total hip arthroplasty (THA); (2) evaluated the outcomes of THA in patients who have had previous spinal fusion; and (3) we presented an algorithm on how to surgically address patients who simultaneously require THA and ASD correction.

Methods

A comprehensive literature search was conducted. Our final analysis included 14 studies. Overall, there were 3 studies that reported on the impact of ASD on THA outcomes, 6 studies reported on the effect of ASD correction on THA outcomes, and 5 studies reported on the effect of spinal fusion on THA outcomes.

Results

Patients with concurrent ASD and THA are at increased risk of THA dislocations and revisions with studies reporting a compiled 2.9% dislocation rate in 1167 patients. Patients who underwent ASD correction demonstrated a post-operative reduction of acetabular anteversion (mean reduction range 4.96°-11.2°, P < .001) and tilt (mean ?7° ± 10°, P < .001). In THA patients with concurrent lumbosacral fusion, dislocation rates ranged between 3% at 1 year and 7.5% at 2 years compared to 0.4%-2.1% dislocation rates in matching cohorts (P < .001).

Conclusion

Spine balance can alter THA outcomes, but the exact mechanism is yet to be elucidated. We aimed at bridging the gap between hip and spine surgeons with an up-to-date analysis of the best available evidence and presented an algorithm for approaching patients who may simultaneously need ASD correction and THA.  相似文献

Background

Recurrent instability remains a challenge after revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). We report the outcomes of cementing a cementless dual mobility (DM) component into a stable acetabular shell for the treatment and/or prevention of instability in revision THA.

Methods

Eighteen patients (18 THAs) undergoing revision THA with a specific monoblock DM construct cemented into a new acetabular component or an existing well-fixed component from 2011 to 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Tumor prostheses and total femoral replacements were excluded. In 9 patients (50%), components were implanted specifically for recurrent dislocations. Mean age was 64 years; mean follow-up was 3 years. Patients underwent an average of 4 prior hip operations (range 2-6).

Results

No cemented DM cups dissociated at the cement-cup interface. Three patients (17%) experienced a postoperative dislocation. One required a revision to constrained liner and 2 underwent open reduction with retention of the DM construct. Harris Hip Scores improved from 53 to 82 postoperatively (P < .001).

Conclusion

Cementation of a monoblock cup DM construct, an off-label use as the construct is not specifically made for cementation, into a well-fixed acetabular component provides an alternative to enhance prosthetic stability in (1) recurrently dislocating THAs with well fixed, well-positioned acetabular components and (2) complex acetabular reconstructions in which constraint should be avoided. While not a perfect solution in this series, DM constructs provide a number of advantages including no added constraint at the interface and a large effective femoral head to diminish prosthetic impingement.  相似文献

Background

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) represents a devastating complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Modifiable patient risk factors as well as various intraoperative and postoperative variables have been associated with risk of PJI. In 2011, our institution formulated a “bundle” to optimize patient outcomes after THA and TKA. The purpose of this report is to describe the “bundle” protocol we implemented for primary THA and TKA patients and to analyze its impact on rates of PJI and readmission.

Methods

Our bundle protocol for primary THA and TKA patients is conceptually organized about 3 chronological periods of patient care: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative. The institutional total joint database and electronic medical record were reviewed to identify all primary THAs and TKAs performed in the 2 years before and following implementation of the bundle. Rates of PJI and readmission were then calculated.

Results

Thirteen of 908 (1.43%) TKAs performed before the bundle became infected compared to only 1 of 890 (0.11%) TKAs performed after bundle implementation (P = .0016). Ten of 641 (1.56%) THAs performed before the bundle became infected, which was not statistically different from the 4 of 675 (0.59%) THAs performed after the bundle that became infected (P = .09).

Conclusion

The bundle protocol we describe significantly reduced PJIs at our institution, which we attribute to patient selection, optimization of modifiable risk factors, and our perioperative protocol. We believe the bundle concept represents a systematic way to improve patient outcomes and increase value in total joint arthroplasty.  相似文献

Background

Birmingham hip resurfacing (BHR) has proven to be a good alternative for younger patients with osteoarthritis. Some have asserted that BHR may yield outcomes which are superior to total hip arthroplasty (THA), and that some studies which failed to show a difference were plagued by ceiling effects and lack of sensitivity of outcome measures. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes of BHR and THA using the “Forgotten Joint” Score-12 (FJS), a more sensitive score with lesser vulnerability to the ceiling effect.

Methods

Patients who underwent BHR were matched to patients who underwent posterior THA by computing a propensity score using 5 covariates: age, body mass index, gender, worker's compensation claims, and previous hip surgery. Surgical outcomes were assessed using 6 patient-reported outcome measures, including the FJS, the visual analog scale for pain, and patient satisfaction.

Results

There were 42 patients in the BHR group and 18 patients in the THA group. The FJS was 78.0 for the BHR group and 76.0 for the THA group. The Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey Mental Component Summary and Short Form 12 Mental Component Summary were significantly higher in the BHR group. No differences were seen between all other patient-reported outcomes.

Conclusion

BHR offers excellent results in young patients that are comparable to THA. As no clinical difference could be shown between BHR and THA, even with the use of the FJS, the choice between BHR and THA should not be based solely on any expectation that either yields superior clinical outcomes compared to the other at short-term follow-up.  相似文献

Background

The use of porous tantalum for the acetabular component in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has demonstrated excellent short-term and midterm results. However, long-term data are scarce. The purpose of this prospective study is to report the long-term clinical and radiologic outcome following use of an uncemented porous tantalum acetabular component in primary THA with a minimum follow-up of 17.5 years, in a previously studied cohort of patients.

Methods

We prospectively followed 128 consecutive primary THAs in 140 patients, between November 1997 and June 1999. A press-fit porous tantalum monoblock acetabular component was used in all cases. All patients were followed clinically and radiographically for a mean of 18.1 years (range, 17.5-19 years).

Results

Mean age of patients at the time of operation was 60.4 years. Harris hip score, Oxford hip score, and range of motion were dramatically improved in all cases (P < .001). At last follow-up, all cups were radiographically stable with no evidence of migration, gross polyethylene wear, progressive radiolucencies, osteolytic lesions, or acetabular fractures. The survivorship with reoperation for any reason as end point was 92.8% and the survivorship for aseptic loosening as an end point was 100%.

Conclusion

The porous tantalum monoblock cup in primary THA demonstrated excellent clinical and radiographic outcomes with no failures because of aseptic loosening at a mean follow-up of 18.1 years.  相似文献

Background

Sitting radiographs have been used as a pre-operative tool to plan patient-specific total hip arthroplasty (THA) component position that would improve hip stability. Previous work has demonstrated that spinal mobility may impact functional acetabular position when seated. We sought to determine whether patients who dislocate following THA have different sitting spinopelvic alignment or acetabular component orientation compared to patients who did not dislocate.

Methods

A consecutive series of 1000 patients underwent post-operative low-dose biplanar spine-to-ankle lateral radiographs in standing and sitting positions 1 year following THA. Twelve patients (1% of all patients) experienced hip dislocation. Patients were categorized as having normal lumbar spines (without radiographic arthrosis) or as having lumbar multi-level degenerative disc disease. Measurements of spinopelvic alignment parameters (including sacral slope, lumbar lordosis, and proximal femur angles) and acetabular component orientation in sitting position (functional inclination and functional anteversion) were performed.

Results

Patients who dislocated had significantly less spine flexion, less change in pelvic tilt, and more hip flexion from standing to sitting positions compared to patients with normal spines. In sitting position, dislocators had acetabular components with less functional inclination and less functional anteversion.

Conclusion

This study demonstrates that patients with fixed spinopelvic alignment from standing to sitting position are at higher risk of hip dislocation. Imaging patients from standing to sitting position using this technique can provide valuable information on whether a patient has fixed spinopelvic alignment with postural changes and is therefore at higher risk of dislocation.  相似文献
