Factors influencing survival of reconstructions. Consensus report of Working Group 2

Abstract: In order to evaluate the level of evidence of factors influencing the survival of reconstructions, systematic reviews of the relevant literature were prepared by a group of rapporteurs. The review papers were circulated to the members of the group before the conference and formed the basis for group and panel discussions. Subsequently, modifications were added to the review papers, and suggestions for consensus statements concerning the following topics were prepared and again critically reviewed in the group and in the plenum: Impact of (i) periodontal disease on the survival of tooth-supported reconstructions, (ii) post-surgical factors as supportive therapy on the survival of implant supported reconstructions, (iii) technical and/or biological complications on the survival of different types of reconstructions, (iiii) material choice for reconstructions on the survival of single crowns and fixed dental prostheses.     

Catastrophic failure of modular Zirconia—Ceramic femoral head components after total hip arthroplasty

Catastrophic failure of two zirconia—ceramic modular femoral heads occurred, despite the theoretical improved toughness of zirconia—ceramic relative to alumina—ceramic. This experience led the authors to return to cobalt—chromium as the metal of choice for articulation against polyethylene in total hip arthroplasty.

MANAGEMENT OF CHONDROSARCOMA INCLUDING MODULAR CERAMIC AND ALUMINA PROSTHETIC REPLACEMENT

Forty-one cases of chondrosarcoma from varying sites throughout the body, and treated exclusively by one of the authors (R. L. H.) from 1972 to 1990 were reviewed. The symptoms, signs, location of tumours, treatment and progress are presented. Particular attention was paid to modular bone replacement techniques. Excision and reconstruction of the bone or joint were carried out in 17 femora, five tibia and six humeri. Comparison between this method of management and other techniques is discussed. Titanium and alumina prostheses for the hip, femur, tibia, shoulder and humerus have been designed by the senior author. These are both inert and modular, and have been found to be superior to other methods of treatment in both function and cosmesis. They do not possess the same potential donor infection risks and other disadvantages of allograft replacement. Immediate postoperative weight bearing and mobilization are possible with these systems. The Huckstep prostheses allow for bony in growth into their porous coated alumina sleeves, spacers and stems. In addition, the titanium alloy locking component for the femoral stems has an elasticity half that of other metal alloys and this was found to minimize stress shielding.     

三种基牙材料对铸造玻璃瓷冠碎裂影响的研究

目的:研究不同种类和强度基牙材料与瓷冠破折碎裂的内在关系.方法:选用计算机建立上颌中切牙的三维有限元模型,模拟陶瓷层、牙本质、核桩等结构.分析在天然齿基牙、钴铬合金基牙及复合树脂基牙情况下,铸造玻璃陶瓷全冠的瓷层内及残余牙本质的应力分布情况.结果:高弹性模量的钴铬合金能够降低瓷层及残余牙本质内的最大主应力和最小主应力峰值,防止瓷层破折碎裂;而弹性模量与牙本质相近的复合树脂桩降低应力峰值的作用不明显.结论:对于有牙髓活力的牙本质基牙,尽量保存牙髓活力后行全冠修复.对于行根管治疗术后的无髓牙,进行核桩冠修复时,采用高弹性模量的高熔合金,尽量避免使用弹性模量较小的复合树脂核.     

口腔修复陶瓷材料的磨损性能北大核心

背景:陶瓷材料因具有优良的机械性能、与口腔组织良好的生物相容性及高度美观性广泛应用于口腔修复领域,良好的磨损性能对修复体临床应用有重要意义。目的:综述口腔修复陶瓷材料磨损性能机制及临床研究,以期为临床选择适宜的陶瓷材料提供思路。方法:应用计算机在PubMed和Web of Science数据库检索在2016年1月至2021年4月期间涉及口腔修复陶瓷材料磨损性能的相关研究。英文检索词为“dental ceramic material,wear property”,最终共纳入36篇文献进行分析。结果与结论:①全瓷材料自身耐磨性均高于树脂陶瓷复合材料,全瓷材料中氧化锆陶瓷磨损性能最佳,美学性能较弱。②玻璃陶瓷中氧化锆加强型硅酸锂玻璃陶瓷磨损性能较好,但应用时间较短,长期疗效还有待更多的研究证实。③树脂陶瓷复合材料中树脂纳米陶瓷材料磨损性能优于聚合物渗透陶瓷。④在后牙区全冠修复可选择氧化锆陶瓷,前牙区全冠修复可以根据患者的美学需求选择高透性氧化锆陶瓷或玻璃陶瓷。⑤贴面、嵌体和高嵌体修复可选择长石瓷、玻璃陶瓷和树脂陶瓷复合材料,但树脂陶瓷复合材料耐磨性差,需避免用于高应力承载区。⑥对牙本质暴露、氟斑牙和牙齿酸蚀症患者可考虑树脂纳米陶瓷材料,但这类患者适宜的陶瓷材料相关研究较少。⑦表面粗糙度对陶瓷材料的磨损性能有显著影响,临床口腔修复应用中采用良好的抛光表面可提高陶瓷材料磨损性能,而且对修复体进行定期复查也至关重要。     

A scanning electron microscopy study of the interface between ceramics and bone

By use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), together with energy dispersive chemical analysis, a study has been made of the comparison of an in vitro method of assessing interface reactions between bone and ceramic implants with the naturally occurring changes seen in the rat ear model. Interface reactions between bone and two ceramic materials were examined following 4 wk in culture and 4 wk implantation. In both cases a gradual chemical change occurred at the calcium silicate surface during the fibrous growth onto the ceramic material. Gradual mineralization of the connective fibres was found at the interface of the calcium silicate material, whereas, in the case of alumina ceramic a connective fibrous bond had formed with no associated chemical change at the ceramic surface.     

In Vivo Corrosion of Sleeved Ceramic Femoral Heads: A Retrieval Study

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate a series of retrieved sleeved ceramic femoral heads used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and determine qualitative and quantitative damage and corrosion patterns.MethodsAn IRB-approved implant retrieval database was utilized to identify all sleeved ceramic femoral heads collected from 1995 to 2004. There were 16 implants with an average duration of in situ of 70 months (range, 13-241 months). The femoral stem was known in 14 cases and was titanium alloy in each of those cases. None were revised for metal-related complications. Ten implants (63%) were from primary THAs, and 6 (38%) were from revision THAs. Damage and corrosion were qualitatively graded using a modified Goldberg method. A quantitative assessment was performed with a coordinate measurement machine (CMM).ResultsAmong the 16 retrieved implants, 1 (6%) demonstrated severe Grade 4 corrosion, 5 (31%) had moderate Grade 3 corrosion, 5 (31%) had mild Grade 2 corrosion, and 5 (31%) had no visible corrosion at the inner sleeve that interfaces with the stem trunnion. The only case of grade 4 corrosion occurred in the only head-sleeve in the study that was not factory assembled and was mated with a titanium molybdenum zirconium ferrous (TMZF) alloy stem. The mean maximum linear corrosion depth at the taper interface, as measured by the CMM, was 7.7 microns (range, 0.9-32.9 microns).ConclusionThis study is the first to quantify corrosion at the titanium interface of sleeved ceramic femoral heads. Potentially clinically significant damage and corrosion patterns were observed in a few failed retrievals; however, the majority of cases demonstrated minimal or no damage.     

Survivorship of Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty With Metal-Backed Acetabular Liners at 10 Years

BackgroundCeramic-on-ceramic bearings are becoming increasingly popular in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). To enhance ceramic-on-ceramic liner exchange in case of revision surgery, metal-backed liner systems have been proposed. Little is known about the clinical performance of these implants. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a metal-backed liner implant system for primary THA.MethodsA total of 422 patients (with 468 consecutive THAs) were followed over a mean period of 10 years. All arthroplasties were performed with a cementless stem, a press-fit cup, and a metal-backed liner system. Surgical and clinical data, complications, and revisions were analyzed. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) before surgery and at 1 and 10 years after surgery were compared.ResultsThe overall 10-year implant survival rate was 93.8%. The survival rate was 97.0% for heads and liners, 97.5% for stem, and 99.3% for acetabular cup. The most common reason for revision was ceramic breakage (2.4%) of the third-generation (BIOLOX forte) acetabular liner. Mean WOMAC score improved significantly from 50.1 before surgery to 13.2 at 1 year after surgery. There was no difference in WOMAC scores between surgical approach and type of bearing at 1 and 10 years after surgery.ConclusionTHA using cementless stem, press-fit cup, and metal-backed liner system provides satisfactory long-term outcomes, with revision rate comparable to that with other systems available in the market. The metal-backed liner system has low risk of mal-seating. Third-generation ceramic liners should be avoided as they seem to be more prone to breakage.
