Background. Interest in arthroplasty techniques for periarticular or intra-articular fractures in the elderly/osteoporotic patient continues to rise, including for geriatric acetabular fractures. In line with this, many acetabular fracture surgeons are now undertaking acute total hip arthroplasty in elderly/osteoporotic patients. Little is known however of the outcomes of this procedure, beyond the first year after surgery. Questions/Purposes. We determined the clinical outcomes of a series of elderly osteoporotic patients (mean age at surgery 77.4 years) treated for acetabular fractures with column fixation and simultaneous total hip arthroplasty, at a mean of 49 months after surgery. Methods. 24 patients (25 hips) were reviewed at a mean of 49 months after surgery. The surgical technique employed has previously been described. Radiographs were obtained, and clinical outcomes were assessed using Harris Hip Scores and the Merle d’Aubigné score. Results. 14 hips were available for assessment (9 deceased, 2 lost to follow-up). No patient suffered any complications beyond the perioperative period, no acetabular components were loose clinically or on latest radiographs, and the mean Harris Hip Score was 92. All but one patient scored good or excellent on the Merle d’Aubigné score. Conclusions. Column fixation and simultaneous total hip arthroplasty are a viable option for complex geriatric acetabular fractures, with encouraging midterm results. We conclude that THR is a viable long-term solution in this situation provided that the acetabular columns are stabilised prior to implantation, but more research is needed to aid in overall management decision making.

Aims Femoral bone preparation using compaction technique has been shown to preserve bone and improve implant fixation in animal models. No long-term clinical outcomes are available. There are no significant long-term differences between compaction and broaching techniques for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in terms of migration, clinical, and radiological outcomes. Methods A total of 28 patients received one-stage bilateral primary THA with cementless femoral stems (56 hips). They were randomized to compaction on one femur and broaching on the contralateral femur. Overall, 13 patients were lost to the ten-year follow-up leaving 30 hips to be evaluated in terms of stem migration (using radiostereometry), radiological changes, Harris Hip Score, Oxford Hip Score, and complications. Results Over a mean follow-up period of 10.6 years, the mean stem subsidence was similar between groups, with a mean of -1.20 mm (95% confidence interval (CI) -2.28 to -0.12) in the broaching group and a mean of -0.73 mm (95% CI -1.65 to 0.20) in the compaction group (p = 0.07). The long-term migration patterns of all stems were similar. The clinical and radiological outcomes were similar between groups. There were two intraoperative fractures in the compaction group that were fixed with cable wire and healed without complications. No stems were revised. Conclusion Similar stem subsidence and radiological and clinical outcomes were identified after the use of compaction and broaching techniques of the femur at long-term follow-up. Only the compaction group had intraoperative periprosthetic femur fractures, but there were no long-term consequences of these. Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2021;2(12):1035–1042.

Acetabular Shell

This is a prospective data collection across seven centers in a non-randomized, post- market study where an additive manufactured cementless acetabular shell was used in primary total hip arthroplasty. There was a total of 254 hips/246 patients across seven centers. Clinical outcomes including all-cause survivorship, the Harris Hip Score (HHS), Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS), Veterans Rand 12 (VR-12), EuroQol 5D (EQ- 5D) and radiographs were collected pre- and postoperatively. Radiographs were analyzed for presence of radiolucencies, migration and overall cup stability. All-cause survival rate was 99.61% and there were no reported radiolucencies greater than 2mm for any zone. There was a reduction in radiolucencies from the 6-week to 1-year postoperative timeframe. All cups reviewed at 1-year were stable with no radiolucencies in 96% of hips. These early results demonstrate the favorable properties of this shell and the use of additive manufacturing in orthopaedic surgery.

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) using computer navigation systems (nTHA) and those of robotic arm-assisted THA (rTHA).Methods Thirty prospective subjects who underwent rTHA were clinically compared with 30 subjects who underwent nTHA. Clinical data (the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, pain severity, number of days to independent walking, and Harris Hip Score (HHS) at discharge) and radiographic parameters (the inclination and anteversion angles) were statistically compared between the two groups. Results The surgical time, number of days to independent walking, and postoperative pain were significantly reduced in the rTHA group than in the nTHA group. The rTHA group showed a significantly higher postoperative HHS than did the nTHA group. No statistically significant difference was observed in radiographic parameters between the groups.Conclusion The surgical time, postoperative pain, and number of days to independent walking were significantly shorter, and the HHS at discharge was significantly higher in the rTHA group than in the nTHA group. Thus, as compared to nTHA, rTHA improved early clinical outcomes.

Recent advances have made robotic assistance a viable option in total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the clinical outcomes of this procedure relative to THA without robotic assistance have yet to be reported. This study presents short-term outcomes of robotically assisted THA compared to a pair-matched control group of patients that underwent THA without robotic assistance.Data were prospectively collected on all THAs performed from July 2011 to January 2015. Patients were included if they underwent primary THA treating idiopathic osteoarthritis and were eligible for minimum two-year follow-up. Outcomes were measured using Harris Hip Score (HHS), the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12), pain on a visual analog scale (VAS), and satisfaction from 0-10. Patients that underwent THA with robotic assistance were matched 1:1 with THA patients without robotic assistance for age, sex, BMI, and approach.There were 85 patients in each study group. There were no significant differences in the demographic factors matched for. Both HHS and FJS-12 were significantly higher in the robotic assistance group at minimum two-year follow-up. VAS was lower in the robotic assistance group, but this was not statistically significant (p = 0.12). There was a not a significant difference in patient satisfaction. There was no significant difference in the rate of postoperative complications or subsequent revisions between groups.Robotically assisted THA is safe and may lead to superior short-term outcomes compared to THA without robotic assistance.

Abstract Introduction: Acetabular fractures (AFxs) are rare injuries considering their incidence. The gold standard of treatment is open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Surgical treatment represents a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Our purpose is to assess the short- to medium-term functional outcomes and complications of surgically treated AFx. We analysed the factors influencing clinical outcomes, the incidence of complications and the predictors of conversion in total hip arthroplasty (THA).Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analysed 102 patients with AFx treated between December 2017 and September 2020. The inclusion criteria were AFx treated with ORIF and more than 12 months of follow-up (FU). We evaluated the quality of reduction with X-ray measuring residual displacement, classified into 3 groups (Matta Radiological Score). Postoperative superficial and deep infections, neurological sequelae and deep vein thrombosis were documented. X-rays were performed to confirm the adequacy of fixation and complications. At the final FU, the radiographs were graded according to Matta’s Radiological Outcome Grading, and the clinical outcomes were graded using the Oxford Hip Score (OHS).Results: Of 102 patients, 62 patients were enrolled. The statistical analysis revealed that OHS was influenced by quality of reduction (P=0.033), injury severity score (ISS) (P=0.005) and age (> 75 years) (P=0.029). A significant correlation between the patient’s BMI and the OHS was recorded. The late sequelae were heterotopic ossification (HO) in 13 patients, osteoarthritis (OA) in 22 and avascular necrosis (AVN) in 4. HO was significantly affected by the posterior approach (P=0.031) and by an ISS > 15 (P= 0.0003). The analysis showed a correlation between AVN and posterior hip dislocation (P=0.004). OA had a correlation with postoperative quality of reduction (P=0.014). Eight patients required THA. Comparing patients with and without THA, a significant correlation between THA and posterior dislocation (P=0.022), isolated posterior wall fracture (P=0.039) and ISS > 15 (P=0.029) was recorded.Conclusion: Despite the improvement of surgical techniques and perioperative care, a high rate of patients with AFx still develop complications and require THA. Identifying negative predictors to help the management of fractures in elderly individuals is needed. Furthermore, the presence of negative predictors could represent an indication for primary THA.

Abstract Background Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a debilitating condition. Vascularized iliac bone graft (VIBG) is a joint-preserving surgery to improve blood supply to the avascular portion of the femoral head which may delay secondary osteoarthritis and total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, whether VIBG will affect the subsequent THA survivorship and outcomes are still uncertain. Methods Implant survivorship and clinical outcomes were compared between 27 patients who had undergone prior VIBG and 242 patients who had only undergone THA for ONFH. Baseline characteristics and the postoperative Harris Hip Score (HHS) were also recorded and compared between the two groups. Implant survivorship was determined using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results The overall implant survival for all patients who had a primary diagnosis of ONFH and eventually underwent THA was 92.9%. There was no significant difference in the implant survivorship between the group who directly received THA (survivorship of 93%) and the group which failed VIBG and was subsequently converted to THA (survivorship of 91.9%) (p = 0.71). In addition, higher THA revision rates were associated with smokers and drinkers. Conclusions VIBG may be a reasonable option as a “buy-time” procedure for ONFH. Even if conversion to THA is eventually required, patients may be reassured that the overall survivorship and clinical outcomes may not be compromised. Patients are recommended to give up smoking and binge drinking prior to THA to increase implant survival rate.
