Introduction Periarticular muscles have a significant role in keeping the mobility and integrity of the hip joint. The aim of this article was to investigate the effects of the total hip arthroplasty and early rehabilitation on the muscle strength. Patients Three groups of examined persons (matched in relation to musculosceletal conditions, sex, age and occupation) were included in the investigation. The first group (40 of the involved hip) and the second group (with 33 involved hips) were groups of patients with late-stage of osteoarthritis of the hip. The first group of patients was managed conservatively and the second group operatively (total cemented hip endoprosthesis was performed). The third group was control group with 123 healthy hips. Material and methods The maximal voluntary isometric strength was measured with dynamometer. The muscle strength was tested in all three groups: in the first group of patients at the beginning and at the end of the therapy and in patients of the second group 6?3 months postoperatively. Results A significant improvement of the muscle strength was noted for the flexors (t=2.45, p<0.05), musculus tensor fasciae latae (t=2.35, p<0.05), extensors (t=2.85, p<0.01), adductors (t=3.02, p<0.01), external rotators (t=3.1, p<0.01), m. gluteus medius (t=5.28, p<0.001) and internal rotators (t=5.77, p<0.001) after total hip arthroplasty and early rehabilitation in comparison to the conservatively treated group. Conclusion The muscle strength in the patients with osteoarthritis of the hip after arthroplasty was significantly higher than after rehabilitation for all hip muscles but did not reach values of the strength of the muscles in the corresponding control group.

Superior Approach

This study aims to establish the midterm safety and performance for the direct superior approach to minimally invasive surgery total hip arthroplasty (MIS-THA). We used a unicentric, single-surgeon, retrospective, consecutive case series analysis of the first 40 patients who received primary unilateral direct superior MIS-THA. Special attention was given to functional recovery by measuring Harris Hip Score (HHS) and timed-up-and-go (TUG) with a mean follow up of 2.2 ± 0.4 years. A radiologic evaluation was performed. HHS and TUG improved significantly at three months and one year (p < 0.001). All components were placed within the Lewinnek safe zone with no change position or signs of loosening at two years. With a minimum of two years of follow up, the direct superior approach appears to be safe without any obvious or consistent postoperative complications—clinically or radiographically—with excellent functional recovery. Additionally, our subgroup analysis supported no late learning curve effect.

Published Evidence

Introduction: Longevity and success of total hip arthroplasty (THA) is largely dependent on component positioning. While use of robotic platforms can improve this positioning, published evidence on its clinical benefits is limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcomes of THA with robotic surgical assistance. Materials and Methods: We conducted an analysis of robotic arm-assisted primary THAs performed by a single surgeon utilizing a posterior approach. A total of 99 patients (107 cases) who had a minimum two-year follow up were identified. Their mean age was 61 years (range, 33 to 84 years), and their mean body mass index was 30.5 kg/m2 (range, 18.5 to 49.1 kg/m2). There were 56% female patients and primary osteoarthritis was the principal hip diagnosis in 88.8%. Operative times, lengths of hospital stay, and discharge dispositions were recorded, along with any complications. Modified Harris Hip Scores (HHS) were calculated to quantify clinical outcomes. Results: Mean postoperative increases in HHS at 2- to 5.7-year follow up was 33 points (range, 6 to 77 points). There were no complications attributable to the use of robotic assistance. Surgical-site complications were rare; one case underwent a revision for prosthetic joint infection (0.93%) but there were no dislocations, periprosthetic fractures, or cases of mechanical implant loosening. There was no evidence of progressive radiolucencies or radiographic failure. Discussion: Robotic arm-assisted THA resulted in low complication rates at minimum two-year follow up, with clinical outcomes comparable to those reported with manual surgery.1–4 The haptically-guided acetabular bone preparation enabled reliable cementless acetabular fixation and there were no adverse events related to the use of the robot. Dislocations were avoided in this case series. Randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to compare manual to robotic surgery and to investigate whether the precision found with this functional planning will reliably reduce the incidence of dislocations.

Introduction: Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of primary osteoarthritis of the hip has evolved to a very safe and cost-effective intervention with revision rates below 5% after 10 years. To this day, however, controversy remains on whether or not to cement the acetabular cup. Methods: A comprehensive PubMed search of the English literature for studies published between 2007 and 2018 was performed. Studies comparing the clinical (revision rate, functionality), radiological (wear) or economic (cost) differences between cemented (cemented stem with cemented cup) and hybrid (cemented stem with uncemented cup) prostheses for primary osteoarthritis of the hip were identified as eligible. Results: A total of 1032 studies were identified whereof twelve were included for qualitative synthesis. All studies concerning the risk of revision were based on registry data, covering a total of 365,693 cups. Cemented prostheses had a similar or lower risk of revision compared to hybrid prostheses in every study, but performed slightly worse on functionality and quality of life. While cemented prostheses were the cheapest option, hybrids were the most cost-effective. Discussion: The widespread preference for cementless fixation of the acetabulum cannot be explained by a superior survival of cementless or hybrid models. Irrespective of age, cemented fixation of the acetabulum remains the gold standard to which other techniques should be compared.
