Background and Objective. Intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck account for a major share of fractures in the elderly. Open reduction and internal fixation has been shown to have a higher rate of revision surgery than arthroplasty. The aim of this study was to assess and compare the rates of revision surgery performed after internal fixation and primary total hip arthroplasty. Material and Methods. Between 2004 and 2006, 681 intracapsular femoral neck fractures in 679 consecutive patients were treated with internal fixation or total hip arthroplasty at our institution. Revision surgery rates were evaluated at 1-, 3-, 6-, 12-, and 24-month follow-up. Results. There was no significant difference in the ratio of internal fixation to total hip arthroplasty during 2004–2006 (P=0.31). The mean rate of total hip arthroplasty was 19.1% with a lower rate being among patients younger than 60 years. Revision surgery rates at the 2-year followup were higher in the internal fixation group compared with total hip arthroplasty group (28.9% vs. 7.0%, P<0.001). Patients who underwent internal fixation were at a 4-fold greater risk of having revision surgery at the 2-year follow-up than those who underwent total hip arthroplasty (odds ratio, 4.11; 95% CI, 1.95–8.65; P<0.001). Age was a significant risk factor for revision surgery after total hip arthroplasty (hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.87–0.98; P=0.02), but not significant after the internal fixation (P=0.86). Conclusions. Higher revision surgery rates after internal fixation favors arthroplasty as a primary choice of treatment for the femoral neck fractures.

Background: Arthroplasty is the treatment of choice for elderly patients with displaced femoral neck fractures. When compared to total hip arthroplasty (THA), higher revision rates have been reported for hemiarthroplasty (HA). Conversion of failed HA to THA can be complex, especially in the elderly population at risk for revision surgery complications. We report a single institution’s experience with conversion of failed HA to THA at mid-term follow-up. Methods: We identified patients converted from failed HA to THA from 2006 to 2016. Clinical data including indication for index and conversion surgery, maintenance or revision of femoral component during conversion, operative time, estimated blood loss, postoperative complications, and need for revision surgery were collected. Descriptive statistics were analysed in SPSS. Results: The cohort included 21 men and 39 women (mean age of 74.5 years). The mean follow-up after conversion HA to THA was 2.8 years. During conversion surgery, the femoral component was revised in 75.0% and retained in 25.0% of cases. After conversion HA to THA, the rate of major complications and re-revision at 2 years was 11.7% and 10.0%, respectively. Femoral revision versus retention did not affect complication rates (11.1% vs. 6.7%; p = 0.31) or re-revision rates (8.9% vs. 13.3%; p = 1.0). Conclusions: In this high-risk population, mid-term follow-up demonstrated tolerable complication and re-revision rates, the majority of which were for instability. We observed high rates of femoral component revision during conversion THA, although this did not increase the likelihood of postoperative complications or need for future surgery.

AbstractDislocation is among the most commonly reported complications following revision total hip arthroplasty. Dual-mobility bearings may lower the risk of dislocation. The authors report the results of a multicenter study evaluating the use of a dual-mobility acetabular cup design that was cemented into a metal shell as part of complex acetabular reconstructions or in cases where the risk of dislocation was felt to be high, such as isolated bearing exchanges. Eighteen patients were identified for being at high risk of dislocation who underwent cementation of a dual-mobility shell that is specifically made for cementation, into a fully porous metal revision acetabular cup (10 patients) or into a well-fixed cup at the time of revision without removal of the existing acetabular component (eight patients). Patients were assessed clinically and radiographically at a minimum of 2 years for the evidence of dislocation, revision surgery, and implant loosening. At a mean of 36 months (range, 25–56 months), one patient died and one was lost to follow-up. There were no known cases of hip dislocation. There was one repeat revision, for a deep infection treated with irrigation and debridement. The mean preoperative Harris Hip Score of 46 (range, 40–79) improved to a mean of 65 points (range, 41–97) at the most recent evaluation. Acetabular components were retained in 8 out of 18 cases and the dual-mobility shell was cemented into it. Cementation of a dual-mobility cup into a shell at the time of a revision surgery is a safe and reliable construct at minimum of 2 years for patients at high risk of dislocation. There were no complications related to the cementation of the cup into the metal shell. Longer follow-up is required to further assess the durability of this construct.

Objective This study was performed to assess the outcomes of Asian patients who underwent conversion from metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (MoM-THA) to cemented THA (CTHA). Methods One hundred and fifty-seven consecutive patients (157 hips) who underwent CTHA following primary MoM-THA from January 2005 to February 2015 were retrospectively analysed. The primary endpoints were the clinical outcomes. Follow-ups occurred at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and then every 2 years following revision of MoM-THA. Results The mean follow-up after conversion was 10 years (range, 5–14 years). Statistically significant improvements in the mean Harris hip score were observed between the preoperative and final follow-up evaluations (62.71 ± 13.85 vs. 84.03 ± 16.21, respectively). The major orthopaedic complication rate was 16.5% (26/157). Six (3.8%) patients underwent revision at a mean of 3.5 ± 1.3 years after conversion, predominantly because of prosthesis loosening or recurrent dislocation. Nine (5.7%) patients developed prosthesis loosening at a mean of 2.6 ± 1.1 years following conversion, two of whom requested revision surgery. Eleven (7.0%) patients developed prosthesis dislocation, four of whom requested revision surgery. Conclusion CTHA may yield favourable functional outcomes and a reduced rate of major orthopaedic complications.

Background: Adverse reactions to metal debris are significant complications after metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. Recently, late appearances of adverse reactions to metal debris and subsequent need for reoperations have been reported with small-diameter head metal-on-metal devices. We retrospectively investigated mid-term clinical outcomes of small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. Methods: We reviewed 159 hips in 139 patients who had a small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (M2a Taper; Biomet, Warsaw, IN) with a minimum 5-year follow-up and documented postoperative complications. Results: Focal osteolysis in either the femur or acetabulum was observed in 12 hips (7.5%, 44 months after surgery on average), with pseudotumor observed in 8 hips (5%, 120 months after surgery on average). Four hips (2.5%) had dislocations (84 months after surgery on average) and six hips (3.8%, 122 months after surgery on average) underwent reoperation. Conclusion: Small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty is associated with a high degree of complications at mid-term follow-up period. Considering this, we discourage the use of metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty regardless of head size.

Introduction: The Chiari pelvic osteotomy (CPO) has been recommended as a salvage procedure to improve head coverage in case of hip joint incongruence in paediatric hip disease. In this study, we aimed to assess the long-term results of CPO for severe Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD). Methods: A total of 39 patients who underwent a CPO at our department between 1995 and 2010 were prospectively followed both radiologically (Stulberg classification) and clinically (Harris Hip Score [HHS], conversion into total hip arthroplasty). In this study, we retrospectively reviewed the cases of 12 hips (12 patients, 3 girls, 8 left hips) treated by CPO for severe LCPD (Catterall grade 3 or 4) with hip joint incongruence. Mean follow-up was 14.0 (range 7.6–21.3) years. Results: Mean age at surgery was 10.2 (range 8.2–17.8) years. Additional femoral osteotomy was performed in 8 patients. A good radiological result (Stulberg I or II) was achieved in 2 patients, a fair result (Stulberg III) in 4 patients, and a poor outcome (Stulberg IV or V) in 6 patients. Mean postoperative HHS averaged 93 (range 65–100) points. An excellent functional outcome (HHS 90–100 points) was achieved in 9 patients. No patient underwent total hip arthroplasty during follow-up. Postoperative limb-length discrepancy was found in 3 patients. Conclusions: CPO for severe LCPD with hip joint incongruence resulted in good long-term clinical outcome in about ⅔ of our patients after a mean of 14 years. Our results suggest that CPO can still be considered as a salvage joint-conserving procedure in this selected group of younger patients.

The Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12) is a valid patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used to assess prosthesis awareness during daily activities after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) can be defined as the smallest change or difference that is evaluated as beneficial and could change the patient’s clinical management. The patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) is considered the minimum PROMs cut-off value that corresponds to a patient’s satisfactory state of health. Despite the validity and reliability of the FJS-12 having been already demonstrated, the MCID and the PASS of this score have not previously been defined. Patients undergoing THA from January 2019 to October 2019 were assessed pre-operatively and six months post-surgery using the FJS-12, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Oxford Hip Score (OHS). Pre-operative and follow-up questionnaires were completed by 50 patients. Both distribution-based approaches and anchor approaches were used to estimate MCID. The aim of this paper was to assess the MCID and PASS values of FJS-12 after total hip replacement. The FJS-12 MCID from baseline to 6 months post-operative follow-up was 17.5. The PASS calculated ranged from 69.8 to 91.7.

Background: Introduction of new implants should be monitored closely to capture any signs of compromising patient safety. Vitamin E infused highly-crosslinked polyethylene liners (VEPE) offer the potential for reduced wear. Highwall liners have been hypothesised to result in increased wear and potential liner fractures. The aim of this study was to determine the 3–7-year follow-up of highwall VEPE for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), focusing on liner-related complications. Methods: We included 1221 consecutive THA operations from July 2010 to May 2014 with minimum follow-up of 3 (3.1–6.8) years Data collected included demographics, implant data, complications, reoperations, and deaths. Data were cross-referenced with the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Registry in order to ensure validity and completeness. Acetabular shell position was measured using Martell Hip Analysis Suite in a subgroup of 931 THAs. Results: Cumulative stem revision and shell revision at 3-year follow-up was 3.4% and 0.4% respectively. There were no revisions due to liner failure. Reason for revision included 11 dislocations, 15 soft-tissue revisions for infection, 44 stem revisions of which 34 were periprosthetic fractures and 13 shell revisions of which 6 were combined shell and stem revisions. Conclusion: Early follow-up of VEPE liners for primary THA have not shown any revisions associated with liner failure. Continued monitoring of new materials are necessary to capture any signs of compromised patient safety.
