Purpose: 1 of the causes of groin pain after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is impingement of the iliopsoas tendon. The purpose of this study was to present our results with outside-in arthroscopic tenotomy for iliopsoas impingement after THA. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 12 patients treated between 2009 and 2016 with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Anterior acetabular component prominence was measured on a true lateral hip radiograph. A transcapsular tenotomy was performed near the edge of the acetabular component through an outside-in arthroscopic approach. The primary clinical outcomes evaluated were groin pain, assessed with a visual analogue scale (VAS), and the Harris Hip Score (HHS). Secondary outcomes included strength of hip flexion, measured with the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale. Results: All patients had groin pain improvement, though one patient continued to have moderate pain. The mean VAS score was significantly lower postoperatively (1.08) than preoperatively (6.2) ( p < 0.001). The mean HHS improved from 58.8 (range, 37–76) to 86.1 (range, 59–98) ( p  = 0.001). The average postoperative MRC Scale was 4.58. The mean anterior prominence was 7.25 mm (range 3–12 mm). In patients with <10 mm of component prominence, tenotomy provided groin pain resolution in all cases ( n  = 8). In patients with ⩾10 mm of prominence, symptoms resolved in 3 out of 4 cases. Conclusions: Outside-in arthroscopic iliopsoas release provided a high rate of success with no complications in this study, even in patients with moderate acetabular component prominence.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the successful and cost-benefit surgical treatments. One-stage bilateral THA (BTHA) has a large number of advantages, although there are concerns about the higher complications in this procedure. Aim of our study was to evaluate the complications and outcomes of cementless one-stage BTHA in osteoarthritis patients. A total of 147 patients from 2009 till 2012, underwent one-stage BTHA in Milad and Erfan hospitals, Tehran, Iran. A prospective analysis of the functional outcomes and complications of one-stage BTHA through Hardinge approach in patients with osteoarthritis was performed. We evaluated all patients clinically and radiologically with serial followups. A clinical hip score based upon the modified Harris Hip Score (MHHS) was performed preoperatively and again postoperatively. During the period of study 89 men (60.5%) and 58 women (39.4%) with a mean age of 54.67±7.08 years at the time of presentation were recruited. The mean surgical time was 2.8±0.25 hrs. The mean hospital stay was 3.83±0.65 days. Hemoglobin level decreased significantly after operation (P=0.038). There was two deep venous thromboses, one superficial infection and one temporal proneal palsy but no pulmonary embolism, dislocation, periprosthetic fracture or heterotrophic ossification. The mean preoperative MHHS score was 41.64±5.42 in patients. MHHS score improved to 89.26±4.68 in the last followup (P=0.0001). Our results recommended the use of cementless one-stage BTHA through Hardinge approach in patients with bilateral hip osteoarthritis.

Abstract Purrpose Metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been a subject of recent discussion and concern due to the early failures caused by local and systemic adverse reactions related to specific designs. The aim of this study is to analyze the outcomes and survival rates of a single brand of MoM implants implanted in a consecutive series of patients at a single institution. Methods Between 2007 and 2012, 116 (118 hips) patients were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 6.6 years after primary THA. The diagnosis leading to surgery was osteoarthritis (80 patients) and proximal femoral fracture (36 patients). A single design of THA was implanted. All patients were evaluated before surgery and postoperatively at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months by clinical scores and radiographic studies. The data analysis was made using Student's t-test. Results The minimum follow-up was of 4 years, with a mean follow-up of 6.6 years. Two aseptic loosenings of the acetabular component were recorded (one per group), which were not associated with local or systemic complications related to metal ion release. Both were revised by an isolated acetabular cup substitution with metal-on-polyethylene couplings. Nonprogressive radiolucency lines < 2 mm in zone 2 were observed in other six patients around the acetabular component without clinical manifestation (four in the arthritis group and two in the fracture group). Postoperative Harris Hip Score and SF-36 (36-Item Short Form Survey) score improved in both groups. Conclusion Despite several MoM implants showing early complications and failures, a specific MoM design may be associated with good clinical results at a mid- to long-term follow-up. Level of Evidence This is a therapeutic case series, Level 4 study.

Introduction: This study aimed to compare the clinical and radiographic results of 28-mm ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) total hip arthroplasty (THA) to those of 32-mm CoC during a 5- to 15-year follow-up period. Methods: 107 joints (95 women and 6 men) underwent 28-mm CoC, and 60 (49 women and 7 men) underwent 32-mm CoC. The average patient age at the time of surgery was 56.1 and 55.7 years in the 28-mm and 32-mm CoC groups, respectively. Clinical and radiologic measurements of all patients were analysed. Results: The mean preoperative Harris hip score (HHS) was similar in the 2 groups (28-mm, 58.9; and 32-mm, 58.5). However, at final follow-up, the mean HHS of the 32-mm CoC (91.8) was significantly better than that of the 28-mm CoC (88.2) ( p = 0.003), as were the ranges of motion (ROM) for flexion (98.3 ± 13.5° vs. 87.3 ± 19.3°, p < 0.001) and abduction (27.8 ± 14.9° vs. 22.1 ± 19.3°, p = 0.007). The mean wear rate was 0.0044 mm/year for the 28-mm CoC and 0.0044 mm/year for the 32-mm CoC. No ceramic fractures were found in the 2 groups. One joint in the 28-mm CoC (0.9%) required revision owing to progressive osteolysis. Kaplan-Meier survival at 10 years, with implant loosening or revision THA as the endpoint, was 98.3% for 28-mm CoC and 100% for 32-mm CoC ( p = 0.465). Conclusion: There was no significant difference in ceramic-related complications between the 2 groups. Our study demonstrated that the 32-mm and 28-mm CoC are safe and are associated with good clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT Background Vascularized fibular grafting has been reported as a successful joint preserving surgery for patients with femoral head osteonecrosis. Few reports exist regarding the outcomes associated with total hip arthroplasty after failed vascularized fibular grafting. This study aims to highlight the early results and complications associated with this procedure. Materials and methods We retrospectively reviewed charts and radiographs of 30 patients (38 hips) who underwent conversion of prior vascularized fibular grafting to an uncemented total hip arthroplasty utilizing modern bearings (highly cross-linked polyethylene-on-metal or metal-on-metal). Mean follow-up was 41 months. A control group of 15 osteonecrosis patients (19 hips) was used who had a history of total hip arthroplasty without previous surgery. Outcome measures used were perioperative complications, clinical and radiological findings. Results The prior vascularized fibular grafting group had longer surgical times and more perioperative complications (calcar fracture and persistent wound drainage requiring early reoperation). In the prior vascularized fibular grafting group there were two cases requiring revision for aseptic loosening (one femoral and one acetabular component) and three cases of asymptomatic radiographic loosening (two femoral and one acetabular component). Furthermore, three patients reported symptoms of trochanteric bursitis. None of the above complications were seen in the control group. There was one dislocation in each group; and both were treated successfully with closed reduction. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the final postoperative Harris Hip Score (HHS). Conclusion Despite an increased complication rate, comparable clinical outcomes can be expected after conversion of vascularized fibular grafting to total hip arthroplasty.

Purpose. To review cases of implantation of constraining acetabular components for unstable or recurrent dislocating total hip arthroplasty at the Department of Orthopaedics, Concord Hospital, Sydney. Methods. A retrospective analysis was performed on prospectively collected data of 13 consecutively enrolled patients. Results. From 1989 to 2000, 13 constraining acetabular components were implanted into 13 patients as a revision procedure. The surgical approach for the implantation of the constrained liner was posterolateral in 11 cases; a modified Hardinge approach was applied in 2 cases. The mean clinical follow-up duration was 43 months (range, 14–121 months) and the mean age at the time of surgery was 73 years (range, 52–84 years). No patients were lost to follow-up. Indications for using the constrained acetabular component were recurrent dislocation in revision hip replacements (n=8), and intra-operative instability (n=5). There were no episodes of dislocation of the constrained arthroplasty. In 7 cases, the constrained component was implanted into a previously well-fixed shell. Conclusion. We recommend the judicious use of the constrained component in cases of hip instability during or after total hip arthroplasty when other methods are not successful.

Abstract Background Performing total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is technically challenging. Subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy is typically required for placing the acetabular component within the anatomic hip center. However, the outcomes of subtrochanteric osteotomy using cemented components are not widely reported. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of cemented stem THA with subtrochanteric femoral shortening and transverse derotational osteotomy in patients with Crowe IV DDH.Methods We retrospectively evaluated data of patients with Crowe IV DDH who underwent cemented stem THA with subtrochanteric femoral shortening and transverse derotational osteotomy between 2010 and 2018. Patients who underwent surgery at the hip joint were excluded. Data regarding pre- and postoperative clinical and radiological parameters were collected and reviewed.Results Among 14 patients included (14 hips), the mean age was 60.4 (range, 47–73) years. The mean Harris hip score improved from 40.7 to 87.7. The mean limb length discrepancy reduced from 52 mm to 12.7 mm. No neurologic deficits were noted. The mean osteotomy union time was 10.6 months. Delayed union and postoperative dislocation were observed in one and two patients, respectively. Cement leakage into the osteotomy gap was observed in one patient. No revisions were required. No signs of loosening or migration were observed. Conclusions Cemented stem THA combined with subtrochanteric femoral shortening and transverse derotational osteotomy is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with Crowe IV DDH. The cemented femoral component showed promising mid-term follow up results. However, cement leakage affects bone healing. Osteotomy and cementing should be performed meticulously.Trial Registration: Retrospectively registered

Abstract Background A high rate of complications due to metal-on-metal (MoM) revisions has been relatively commonly documented. The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare the long-term outcomes of patients who had undergone uncemented or cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) revision for prior primary MoM THA failure.Methods Data from 234 patients (234 hips) who underwent uncemented or cemented THA (UTHA or CTHA) for prior primary MoM THA failure during 2007 - 2018 were retrospectively analysed. Follow-up occurred 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and then every 1 year after conversion. The mean follow-up time was 84.15 months (range, 67 - 101 months). The primary endpoint was the modified Harris Hip Score (HHS). The secondary endpoint was the major orthopaedic complication rate.Results The HHS demonstrated statistically greater differences in the CTHA group than in the UTHA group 12 months after conversion. From the 12th month after conversion to the final follow-up, CTHA yielded better functional outcomes than UTHA. There were significant differences in the rates of re-revision, aseptic loosening, and periprosthetic fracture between the groups (10.3% for UTHA vs 2.5% for CTHA, p = 0.015; 16.3% for UTHA vs 5.9% for CTHA, p = 0.011; and 12.0% for UTHA vs 4.2% for CTHA, p = 0.045, respectively).Conclusion In the setting of revision for primary MoM THA failure, we found definite evidence of the superiority of CTHA over UTHA in terms of improving functional outcomes and decreasing the major orthopaedic complication rate.

Abstract Background In gunshot and shell fragment injuries to the hip joint, orthopedic intervention includes wound assessment and care, osteosynthesis of fractures, and avoiding of infection and osteoarthritis. Individuals injured in the Syrian civil war were frequently transferred to the authors’ institution in neighboring city. Orthopedic trauma exposures were determined in approximately 30% of these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of the patients with secondary hip arthritis due to prior gunshot and shell fragment (shrapnel) injuries who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty. Methods This retrospective study reviewed 26 patients (24 males, 2 females) who underwent hip arthroplasty due to prior gunshot and shell fragment injuries from November 2013 to January 2019. For all patients, the Harris Hip Score (HHS) was evaluated preoperatively and after surgery. Results Mean age was 31.5 (range, 19–48) years. The mean preoperative HHS was 52.95 points, and the mean postoperative HHS was 79.92 points at the final follow-up after surgery. Patients with shell fragment injuries to the hip joint had higher infection rates, but it is not statistically significant. Conclusions An anatomic reduction of the fracture may not be possible in these cases as a result of significant bone and/or cartilage loss. Total hip arthroplasty can be done after gunshot- and shell fragment-related posttraumatic arthritis. It is an effective treatment choice to reduce pain and improve function, but the surgeon must be very careful because of high rate of infection.

Aims Iliopsoas pathology is a relatively uncommon cause of pain following total hip arthroplasty (THA), typically presenting with symptoms of groin pain on active flexion and/or extension of the hip. A variety of conservative and surgical treatment options have been reported. In this retrospective cohort study, we report the incidence of iliopsoas pathology and treatment outcomes. Methods A retrospective review of 1,000 patients who underwent THA over a five-year period was conducted, to determine the incidence of patients diagnosed with iliopsoas pathology. Outcome following non-surgical and surgical management was assessed. Results In all, 24 patients were diagnosed as having developed symptomatic iliopsoas pathology giving an incidence of 2.4%. While the mean age for receiving a THA was 65 years, the mean age for developing iliopsoas pathology was 54 years (28 to 67). Younger patients and those receiving THA for conditions other than primary osteoarthritis were at a higher risk of developing this complication. Ultrasound-guided steroid injection/physiotherapy resulted in complete resolution of symptoms in 61% of cases, partial resolution in 13%, and no benefit in 26%. Eight out of 24 patients (who initially responded to injection) subsequently underwent surgical intervention including tenotomy (n = 7) and revision of the acetabular component (n = 1). Conclusion This is the largest case series to estimate the incidence of iliopsoas pathology to date. There is a higher incidence of this condition in younger patients, possibly due to the differing surgical indications. Arthoplasty for Perthes' disease or developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) often results in leg length and horizontal offset being increased. This, in turn, may increase tension on the iliopsoas tendon, possibly resulting in a higher risk of psoas irritation. Image-guided steroid injection is a low-risk, relatively effective treatment. In refractory cases, tendon release may be considered. Patients should be counselled of the risk of persisting groin pain when undergoing THA. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2021;103-B(2):305–308.

Objective This study was performed assess the clinical outcomes of elderly patients with osteoporotic femoral neck fractures (FNFs) (AO/OTA: 31B/C) treated by initial uncemented total hip arthroplasty (UTA) or cemented total hip arthroplasty (CTA). Methods This study involved consecutive elderly patients with osteoporotic FNFs (AO/OTA: 31B/C) treated by initial UTA or CTA in our medical centre from 2010 to 2015. The primary outcomes were the Harris hip score (HHS) and the rates of revision, loosening, periprosthetic fracture, and dislocation. Results In total, 224 patients were included in the final analysis (UTA, n = 114; CTA, n = 110). The mean follow-up duration was 60 months (range, 32–68 months). The mean HHS was 75.34 ± 18.82 for UTA and 80.12 ± 17.83 for CTA. Significant dissimilarities were detected in the rates of revision, loosening, and periprosthetic fracture between UTA and CTA (14.0% vs. 5.5%, 20.2% vs. 10.0%, and 12.3% vs. 4.5%, respectively). A significant difference was also detected in the probability of revision between the two groups. Conclusion Elderly patients with osteoporotic FNFs (AO/OTA: 31B/C) treated with CTA show greater improvements in functional outcomes and key orthopaedic complications than those treated with UTA.
