The Mean

Objectives: Femoral neck fractures (FNFs), with up to 15% mortality, are prominent orthopaedic emergencies. After treating FNFs, dislocation is another challenge increasing morbidity, mortality and treatment costs substantially. The emerging dual-mobility cup (DMC) may decrease dislocation rates following total hip arthroplasty (THA) for FNFs. We performed a systematic review of literature reporting dislocation and mortality rates with DMC-THA for the treatment of FNFs. Methods: 2 authors independently searched PubMed (MEDLINE), Google Scholar and Cochrane library for studies reporting dislocation and mortality rates for FNFs treated with DMC-THA since inception up to January 2019. Data on outcomes of interest was extracted from all studies and assessed for eligibility for a meta-analysis. Results: Out of 522 search results, 18 studies were included in the systematic review and 4 in the meta-analysis. The mean rate of dislocation following DMC-THA for FNFs was found to be 1.87% ± 2.11, with a 1-year mortality rate of 14.0% ± 10.55. Results of meta-analysis showed that dislocation and 1-year postoperative mortality rates were significantly lower for DMC-THA with a risk ratio 0.31 (95% CI, 0.16–0.59; I2 = 0%, p  = 0.0003) and 0.55 (0.40, 0.77; I2 = 0%, p = 0.003) respectively when compared to biploar hemiathroplasty (BHA). Conclusions: The mean dislocation and mortality rates in DMC-THA are lower than previously reported rates for THA with single cup and comparable to unipolar and bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Further research involving randomised control trials to assess differences in outcomes, longevity and cost-effectiveness needs to be conducted to make recommendations for the use of DMC in treating FNFs.

Abstract Background: Displaced femoral neck fractures (DFNF) are increasingly common in elderly patients. Repair of DFNF can be completed using two methods, hemiarthroplasty (HA) or total hip Arthroplasty (THA). However, there is much controversy regarding whether HA or THA is superior in active elderly patients over 75 years old. Methods: We conducted the literature search by searching PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science from the inception dates to June 1, 2019. Randomised controlled trials (RCT) were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Included studies were analysed according to Cochrane review methods. Results: Nine studies met the inclusion criteria totalling 631 participants (301 THA and 330 HA）. Four of the studies conducted were identical to a previous study but look at different follow up measures. The analysis of previously collected data revealed that the THA group had a lower erosion rate, higher total pain and function HHS, and higher EQ-5Dindex. The re-operation rate was significantly lower in the THA group after five years of follow up after adding the patients with painful symptoms to the group of patients revised. However, THA had longer operative time and a higher dislocation rate in the first three years compared to the HA procedure. Moreover, there was an insignificant difference in mortality rate, general complications, wound infection, duration of hospital stay, and VTE prevalence among the two procedures. Conclusions: THA may be a preferred management option for active elderly patients over 75 years old, after careful evaluation of patients’ general condition and tolerance of surgery. Strict management and follow up protocols should be followed to prevent dislocation within the first three years following a THA. Trial registration: This study was registered at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42019139135). The date of registration is 16-06-2019.
