Abstract Background: Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a rare syndrome with multiple joint contractures. There is controversy regarding what the best surgical approach and age is for performing reduction of dislocated hips in AMC. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of early open reduction on infant hip dislocation with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita through the modified Smith-Peterson approach, with retained rectus femoris intact. Methods: From 2010 to 2017, we performed this procedure on 28 dislocated hips in 20 infants under 12 months of age with AMC. The clinical and radiology data were retrospectively reviewed. The mean age at surgery was 6.9 ± 5.1 months, with a mean follow-up of 42.4 ± 41.1 months. Results: After open reduction, the average hip acetabular index (AI), the international hip dysplasia institute classification (IHDI), and hip range of motion were significantly improved (all P<0.001). After the surgery, 16 patients were community walkers and four patients were home walkers. Three hips in two patients required secondary revision surgery for residual acetabular dysplasia with combined pelvic osteotomy and femoral osteotomy. Seven of the hips that had been operated on showed signs of avascular necrosis (AVN). Among them, four were degree II, two were degree III, and one was degree IV. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that the older months are risk factors for secondary revision surgery (P=0.032). Conclusions: The modified Smith-Peterson approach with retained rectus femoris intact is an encouraging and safe option for treating hip dislocation in young AMC patients (before 12 months). Even if surgery takes place at less than 12 months old for patients with AMC, earlier open reduction for hip dislocation may reduce the chance of secondary revision surgery. Level of Evidence: IV, retrospective non-randomized study. Key words: Arthrogryposis, Hip dislocation, Open reduction, Modified Smith-Peterson approach, Retained rectus femoris

Abstract Background: Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a rare syndrome with multiple joint contractures. Within the medical community, there is controversy surrounding AMC in terms of the ideal surgical approach and age for performing a reduction of dislocated hips. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of early open reduction of infant hip dislocation with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita following a modified Smith-Petersen approach that preserves the rectus femoris. Methods: From 2010 to 2017, we performed this procedure on 28 dislocated hips in 20 infants under 12 months of age with AMC. The clinical and radiology data were reviewed retrospectively. The mean age at surgery was 6.9 ± 5.1 months, with a mean follow-up of 42.4 ± 41.1 months. Results: After open reduction, the average hip acetabular index (AI), the international hip dysplasia institute classification (IHDI), and the hip range of motion significantly improved (all P<0.001). After the surgery, 16 patients were community walkers, and four patients were home walkers. Three hips in two patients required secondary revision surgery for residual acetabular dysplasia with combined pelvic osteotomy and femoral osteotomy. Seven of the hips that had been operated on showed signs of avascular necrosis (AVN). Among them, four were degree II, two were degree III, and one was degree IV. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that greater age (in months) heightened the risk for secondary revision surgery (P=0.032). Conclusions: The modified Smith-Petersen approach preserving the rectus femoris is an encouraging and safe option for treating hip dislocation in young AMC patients (before 12 months). If surgery takes place at less than 12 months of age for patients with AMC, this earlier open reduction for hip dislocation may reduce the chances of secondary revision surgery.

Introduction. Femoral neck fractures are very rare in young patients and are frequently complicated by femoral head osteonecrosis and femoral neck nonunion. Case Outline. A 19-year-old girl with hip dislocation following the treatment of the femoral neck fracture is presented. The femoral neck fracture was initially treated by open reduction and three-screw fixation. After detecting the nonunion of femoral neck, valgus osteotomy was done. Secondary, iatrogenic, hip dislocation appeared. The patient had pains, and in clinical findings a shorter leg and limited range of motion in the hip - altogether 40 degrees. She was then successfully treated by open reduction, together with Chiari pelvic osteotomy and joint transfixation. Transfixation pin was removed three weeks following the operation. After that, the patient was put into the abduction device and physical therapy was started. The mentioned regimen lasted four months after the surgery, then the abduction device was removed and walking started. Full weight bearing was allowed eight months after surgery. Conclusion. As we have not found the literature data concerning the above mentioned problem, we solved it in the way that we usually do for the treatment of developmental dislocation of the hip in adolescence.

Introduction: Among all the traumatic hip dislocations, anterior hip dislocation is a rarity in which the obturator inferior variety is one of the rarest to be documented [1]. Here we present to you the case of our patient, a 35-year-old male with a six month neglected obturator variety of anterior hip dislocation treated by salvage procedure of open reduction without the need for intertrochanteric osteotomy and resultant preserved natural hip for ambulation as an intermediary procedure. Case Report: Mr. SH a 35-year-old male had a fall from 15 feet in his village and was treated by a local quack, Meanwhile the patient continued to experience pain and difficulty walking and after an ordeal of nearly 6 months during the lockdown period in coronavirus disease pandemic, showed up in our emergency room and was diagnosed with an obturator type anterior hip dislocation for which we carried out open reduction aided with Murphys skid through an anterolateral approach and stabilization using two Steinman pins and further immobilization by Thomas splint for a period of 15 days, which was done after confirmation of intact head vascularity under general anesthesia after which gradual mobilization was initiated. 3 months post operative, now patient is ambulatory with stick support with no deformity, no pain and with early radiological features of avascular necrosis (AVN) for which Total Hip Replacement (THR) is planned at a later date. Conclusion: Utilisation of salvage procedures and moreover those with minimal operative complications will result in better, natural long-term intermediary measure outcome with a resultant delay in joint replacement procedure which is in the better interest of the patient. Keywords: Anterior hip dislocation, open reduction, obturator inferior type, neglected dislocation, Anterolateral approach.

Hip’s open reduction combined with Salter innominate osteotomy and femoral osteotomy is the treatment of choice when treating Developmental Dislocation of the Hip (DDH) at walking age. We report a case of a five-year-old girl who underwent a failed surgical procedure of hip’s open reduction, Salter innominate osteotomy, and the femoral osteotomy. One year later, one-stage surgical procedure of hip’s open reduction, Dega pelvic osteotomy, and femoral de-rotation varus shortening osteotomy was performed. During the five-year follow-up, the clinical outcome was evaluated as excellent. The Dega pelvic osteotomy is an effective pelvic osteotomy for DDH, in a case of a failed Salter osteotomy.
