New Strategies

Background: Infections remains the most feared complication in total hip arthroplasty (THA). New strategies of PJI prevention includes coating of conventional implants. Defensive Antibacterial Coating (DAC), an antibacterial hydrogel coating made of hyaluronan, poly-D and L-lactide can protect biomaterials as an effective barrier at the time of implantation. In addition, it can be used with topical antibiotics to prevent early colonisation of the implant. Scope: This manuscript describes the detailed function of the DAC in general as well as an analysis of its use in revision THA in a series of 28 patients in a short-term follow-up. Its use in patients undergoing cementless re-implantation after 2-staged procedures in THA is described in detail within the manuscript. Conclusion: DAC found to be effective in terms of infection control and safety in our patient cohort and has been expanded for cementless 1-staged revisions in PJI of the hip in our institution.

Background: Cementation of polyethylene liners into well-fixed cementless metal shells has become an option during revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). We report the results of cementing a dual-mobility (DM) component into a stable acetabular shell in high-risk patients undergoing revision THA. Methods: A single-centre series of 10 patients undergoing revision THA with a DM cup cemented into an existing well-fixed shell between 2012 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Failure due to aseptic loosening or instability and implant survival at last follow-up were analysed. The average age was 79.2 years and mean follow-up was 3.5 years. Indications were recurrent hip dislocation in 8 cases and intraoperative instability with moderate abductor insufficiency in 2 cases. In cases with recurrent dislocation, the aetiology of instability was classified by Wera type. Results: At the latest follow-up, Harris Hip Scores had improved from 49.3 preoperatively to 71.3 postoperatively ( p = 0.098). In the 8 patients with recurrent dislocation, 4 cases (50%) had an unclear aetiology (Wera type 6), 2 (25%) abductor deficiency (Wera type 3) and 2 (25%) late polyethylene wear (type 5). Postoperative recurrent dislocation occurred in 1 hip (10%). No cases of intraprosthetic dislocation, aseptic loosening of the previous shell or dissociation at the cement-cup interface were identified. Conclusion: Although the follow-up of this series is short, cementation of a DM cup into a previous well-fixed socket seems to be a viable option to treat and prevent instability after revision THA, without providing constraint at the cement-cup interface.

Cement Removal

Introduction. The perforation and fracture of the femur during the removal of bone cement in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) are serious complications. The ROBODOC system has been designed to selectively remove bone cement from the femoral canal, but results have not been reported yet. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of revision THA using the ROBODOC system for cement removal.Materials and Methods. The subjects comprised 19 patients who underwent revision THA using the ROBODOC system. The minimum duration of follow-up was 76 months (median, 109 months; range, 76–150 months). The extent of remaining bone cement on postoperative radiography, timing of weight bearing, and the complications were evaluated.Results. The mean Merle d’Aubigne and Postel score increased from 10 points preoperatively to 14 points by final follow-up. Bone cement was completely removed in all cases. Full weight bearing was possible within 1 week after surgery in 9 of the 19 cases and within 2 months in all remaining cases. No instances of perforation or fracture of the femur were encountered.Conclusions. Bone cement could be safely removed using the ROBODOC system, and no serious complications occurred. Full weight bearing was achieved early in the postoperative course because of circumferential preservation of the femoral cortex.

Acetabular Defects

Using morselized and structural allograft to restore bone stock for massive acetabular bone defect in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an appealing procedure. However, concerns about inability to achieve long-term stability following allograft resorption remained. From 2003 to 2012, 59 hips in 58 patients undergoing revision THA for Paprosky type II or III acetabular defects were retrospectively reviewed. The acetabular defects were managed with deep-frozen morselized and structural allografts, and a press-fit cementless cup along with supplementary screws. Clinical outcomes and radiographic results were analyzed with a mean follow-up of 8.7 years. The clinical successful rate was 100% for hips with Paprosky type II defect, 95.2% for IIIA defect, and 92.8% for IIIB defect. Three hips with type III defect failed at 4, 7, and 9 years, respectively. Harris Hip Score improved significantly from 60.1 preoperatively to 91.3 at the latest follow-up. All hips with good clinical results showed trabecular bridging in the allograft-host bone interface. Deep-frozen structural and morselized allograft in combination with a press-fit cementless cup represented a viable option to reconstruct acetabular defects in revision THA.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes after revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using fourth-generation ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearing surfaces. Methods: A total of 52 revision THAs (28 men and 19 women) using the fourth-generation CoC bearing surfaces were retrospectively evaluated. Both acetabular cup and femoral stem were revised in all cases. The mean follow-up period was 7.3 years (range, 4.0–9.9 years). The clinical results with Harris hip score (HHS), Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and radiologic outcomes were evaluated. Results: At the final follow-up examination, the average HHS was 90.4 (range, 67–100). The average WOMAC pain and physical function score were 2.8 (range, 0–12) and 16.4 (range, 0–42), respectively. Complications were observed in 10 hips (19.2%). However, there were no bearing surface-related complications, and no cases of dislocation and squeaking. Retroacetabular pelvic osteolysis without cup loosening was observed in one hip at the final follow-up. However, no hip showed radiographic signs of cup loosening, vertical or horizontal acetabular cup migrations, and changes of inclinations during the follow-up period. Conclusion: Our data showed that clinical and radiologic outcomes after revision THA using fourth-generation CoC bearing were favorable. Hence, revision THA with the use of CoC bearing surfaces can be preferentially considered. Further studies with long-term follow-up data are warranted.

ABSTRACT Patients undergoing a revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) are at increased risk for dislocation. The literature suggests dual-mobility components may decrease the frequency of dislocation. We conducted a retrospective study of one type of dual mobility acetabular component implanted in 82 revision THA cases that were considered at increased risk for dislocation. Of the 82 hips, 58 had a mean follow-up of 12 months (3–28 months). The indication for revision was instability in 18 hips (31%), adverse metal-on-metal reaction in 13 hips (22%), reimplantation for infection in 11 hips (19%), and aseptic loosening of the acetabular component in 9 hips (16%). In the course of follow-up, 6 hips developed a deep infection requiring reoperation. There were no early hip dislocations.

Aims The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the minimum five-year outcome of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the Kerboull acetabular reinforcement device (KARD) in patients with Paprosky type III acetabular defects and destruction of the inferior margin of the acetabulum. Patients and Methods We identified 36 patients (37 hips) who underwent revision THA under these circumstances using the KARD, fresh frozen allograft femoral heads, and reconstruction of the inferior margin of the acetabulum. The Merle d’Aubigné system was used for clinical assessment. Serial anteroposterior pelvic radiographs were used to assess migration of the acetabular component. Results At a mean follow-up of 8.2 years (5 to 19.3), the mean Merle d’Aubigné score increased from 12.5 (5 to 18) preoperatively to 16.5 (10 to 18) (p < 0.0001). The survival rate at ten years was 95.3% (sd 4.5; 95% confidence interval (CI) 86.4 to 100) and 76.5% (sd 9.9, 95% CI 57.0 to 95.9) using aseptic loosening and radiological loosening as the endpoints, respectively. Conclusion These results show that the use of the KARD with reconstruction of the inferior margin of the acetabulum in revision THA is associated with acceptable clinical results and survival at mid-term follow-up with, however, a high rate of migration of the acetabular component of 21.6%.

Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty

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.

Abstract Background: Revision total hip arthroplasty is frequently accompanied by bone loss. The purpose of this study is to evaluate mid- to long-term results of revision total hip arthroplasty for massive femoral bone loss using cementless modular, fluted, tapered stems.Methods: During the period of 2007 to 2015 at a single hospital, 34 hips (33 patients) underwent primary revision surgery with cementless modular, fluted, tapered stems due to massive bone loss, and patients with prosthetic joint infection (PJI) or tumours were excluded. The hips were revised with the LINK MP (Waldemar Link, Hamburg, Germany) prosthesis. Bone loss was categorized by the Paprosky classification for prosthesis loosening and Vancouver classification for peri-prosthetic fracture. All revision bearing surfaces were ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC). Clinical outcomes, radiographic outcomes and survivorship were evaluated.Results: The mean follow-up was 9.1±2.5 years (range, 5-13 years). The Harris hip score was 43.6±11.5 preoperatively and maintained at 86.5±6.6 at the time of latest follow-up (p<0. 05). The X-ray showed bone ingrowth fixation in 30 hips (88%), fibrous stable fixation in 3 hips (9%) and instability in 1 hip (3%). The average stem subsidence was 3.9±2.2 mm (range, 1 to 10 mm). The survivorship of prostheses with re-revision for any reason was 95% (95% CI, 12.0 to 13.0) at the 10-year follow-up. Three (9%) re-revisions were needed, including 1 for aseptic loosening, 1 for dislocation and 1 for infection.Conclusions: The mid- to long-term results of revision total hip arthroplasty with the cementless modular, fluted, tapered stem (LINK MP stem) are encouraging for massive femoral bone loss.
