Objective We performed a retrospective study to compare the accuracy of preoperative planning using three-dimensional AI-HIP software and traditional two-dimensional manual templating to predict the size and position of prostheses. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of AI-HIP in preoperative planning for primary total hip arthroplasty. Methods In total, 316 hips treated from April 2019 to June 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. A typical preoperative planning process for patients was implemented to compare the accuracy of the two preoperative planning methods with respect to prosthetic size and position. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were used to evaluate the homogeneity between the actual prosthetic size and position and the preoperative planning method. Results When AI-HIP software and manual templating were used for preoperative planning, the stem agreement was 87.7% and 58.9%, respectively, and the cup agreement was 94.0% and 65.2%, respectively. The results showed that when AI-HIP software was used, an extremely high level of consistency (ICC > 0.95) was achieved for the femoral stem size, cup size, and femoral osteotomy level (ICC = 0.972, 0.962, and 0.961, respectively). Conclusion AI-HIP software showed excellent reliability for predicting the component size and implant position in primary total hip arthroplasty.

Two-dimensional (2D) planning on standard radiographs for total hip arthroplasty may not be sufficiently accurate to predict implant sizing or restore leg length and femoral offset, whereas 3D planning avoids magnification and projection errors. Furthermore, weightbearing measures are not available with computed tomography (CT) and leg length and offset are rarely checked postoperatively using any imaging modality. Navigation can usually achieve a surgical plan precisely, but the choice of that plan remains key, which is best guided by preoperative planning. The study objectives were therefore to (1) evaluate the accuracy of stem/cup size prediction using dedicated 3D planning software based on biplanar radiographic imaging under weightbearing and (2) compare the preplanned leg length and femoral offset with the postoperative result. This single-centre, single-surgeon prospective study consisted of a cohort of 33 patients operated on over 24 months. The routine clinical workflow consisted of preoperative biplanar weightbearing imaging, 3D surgical planning, navigated surgery to execute the plan, and postoperative biplanar imaging to verify the radiological outcomes in 3D weightbearing. 3D planning was performed with the dedicated hipEOS® planning software to determine stem and cup size and position, plus 3D anatomical and functional parameters, in particular variations in leg length and femoral offset. Component size planning accuracy was 94% (31/33) within one size for the femoral stem and 100% (33/33) within one size for the acetabular cup. There were no significant differences between planned versus implanted femoral stem size or planned versus measured changes in leg length or offset. Cup size did differ significantly, tending towards implanting one size larger when there was a difference. Biplanar radiographs plus hipEOS planning software showed good reliability for predicting implant size, leg length, and femoral offset and postoperatively provided a check on the navigated surgery. Compared to previous studies, the predictive results were better than 2D planning on conventional radiography and equal to 3D planning on CT images, with lower radiation dose, and in the weightbearing position.

The present concepts in Total Hip Arthroplasty advocate mechanical cement interlock with trabecular bone utilising the third-generation cementing technique. However, the force generated can easily reach peak pressure of 122 kPa to 1500 kPa, leading to extrusion of cement through nutrient foramina into femoral cortex into nutrient vessels, henceforth the retrograde arteriovenogram. A 76 years old lady who premorbid ADLindependent had a fall and sustained a closed right neck of femur fracture. She underwent cemented right total hip arthroplasty. Acetabulum cup of 47mm and femoral stem size 1 was utilized. Femoral canal was prepared and medullary cavity plug inserted before retrograde cement was introduced using the cementing gun. Intraoperative no complications were noted. This case has been followed up to a year with no adverse effect. The post-operative radiograph demonstrated a linear radio-opacity communicating with the posterior aspect of the femoral shaft which continues proximally and medially for approximately 10cm. Its uniformity in shape and position corresponds to the vascular supply of proximal femur. In Farouk et al cadaveric study, nutrient vessel arises in 166 ± 10 mm from the greater trochanter and is a branch of the second perforating artery from the deep femoral artery. Knight et al infer that retrograde cement extrusion occurs in female patients with small stature and small endosteal canal. Cement extrusion unlikely will influence the long haul survival of prosthesis as shown in the radiograph that cement is well pressurized to interlock with the endosteal bone. Moreover, because of extensive anastomoses of perforating branches of the deep femoral artery, segmental obliteration of nutrient artery alone is unlikely to lead to vascularity issues. Cement extrusion into the nutrient foramen is a vital differential in presence of posterior medial cement in the diaphysis of the femur following total hip replacement. This is to differentiate from extra osseous extrusions due to the iatrogenic breach of the femoral cortex suggesting periprosthetic fracture which affects the long term survival of prosthesis.

Abstract Objective In total hip arthroplasty (THA), surgeons attempt to achieve a physiological antetorsion. However, postoperative antetorsion of the femoral stem is known to show large variabilities. The purpose of this study was to assess whether postoperative antetorsion is influenced by stem design or cementation. Materials and methods This retrospective study included 227 patients with a hip prosthesis with five different stem designs (S1: short curved, S2 and S3: standard straight, S4: standard straight collared, S5: cemented straight), who had metal suppressed 1.5T-MRI of the hip between February 2015 and October 2019. Measurement of femoral antetorsion was done independently by two fellowship-trained radiologists on axial images by measuring the angle between the long axis of the femoral neck and the posterior condylar tangent of the knee. Measured angles in the different groups were compared using the t test for independent samples. Results The cementless collared stem S4 showed the highest antetorsion with 18.1° (± 10.5°; range –10°–45°), which was significantly higher than the antetorsion of the collarless S3 with 13.3° (± 8.4°; − 4°–29°) and the cemented S5 with 12.7° (± 7.7°; − 3°–27°) with p = 0.012 and p = 0.007, respectively. S1 and S2 showed an antetorsion of 14.8° (± 10.0°; 1°–37°) and 14.1° (± 12.2°; − 20°–41°). The torsional variability of the cementless stems (S1–4) was significantly higher compared with that of the cemented S5 with a combined standard deviation of 10.5° and 7.7° (p = 0.019). Conclusion Prosthesis design impacts the postoperative femoral antetorsion, with the cementless collared stem showing the highest antetorsion. Cemented stems demonstrated significantly lower variability, suggesting the lowest rate of inadvertent malrotation.
