Prevalence of groin pain after primary dual-mobility total hip arthroplasty

Background: Instability remains a challenging problem following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Dual-mobility (DM) components are used with increasing frequency to mitigate this potential complication. As has been shown with larger metal-on-metal (MoM) THA, the larger size femoral head may pose an increased risk of groin pain. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of groin pain following primary DM THA compared to other THA constructs. Methods: We identified 190 primary THAs (183 patients) performed with DM components at a single academic institution from 2008 to 2017. We retrospectively reviewed standardised patient questionnaires and the electronic medical record to determine the prevalence of groin pain. DM patients were compared to historical controls of 39 MoM hip resurfacing, 26 large-head MoM THA, and 217 conventional THA. Mean age was 64 years, 58% were female, mean body mass index was 30 kg/m2, and mean follow-up was 3.5 years (range 2–8 years). Results: The prevalence of groin pain in patients with DM components was 5%, similar to the prevalence reported by patients with conventional THA (7%). There was a decreased prevalence of groin pain in DM patients compared to hip resurfacing (18%) and MoM THA (15%). Among the 9 DM patients with groin pain, 1 was treated with iliopsoas injection, and 1 underwent radiofrequency ablation of the articular nerve. Conclusions: This study documents a relatively low prevalence of groin pain among primary DM THA patients. This is comparable with historical controls of conventional THA and decreased compared to hip resurfacing and large head MoM THA.

Abstract Background: Hip resurfacing had been utilized since the 1950s. The concept favored for young active patients owing to its proposed advantages. Revision rate of hip resurfacing in most national registries nearly 3.5%. Conversion to total hip replacement may be the correct option for old patients and those whose activity levels changed and the need for hip resurfacing no longer required.Purpose: The aim of this study is to assess the mid-term outcomes of converting failed hip resurfacing arthroplsty to total hip arthroplasty. Primary outcomes included improvement of Oxford, WOMAC, Harris and UCLA hip scores. Also; radiological follow-up has been evaluated for component stability or signs of loosening. Secondary outcomes included surgical site infection, residual groin pain, and heterotopic ossification. Most of patients (22 patients (88%) reported relief of pain and good to excellent patient satisfaction. Study design: Prospective case series study.Level of evidence: Therapeutic IV.Patients and Methods:Twenty–five patients (fifteen males) with failed hip resurfacing arthroplasty converted to total hip arthroplasty enrolled in this study. Mean age 56.8 years. Mean time to revision 36.8 months. Indications for revision included: femoral neck fractures (10 cases), femoral neck thinning (3 cases), component loosening (4 cases) component dislocation (2 cases) persistent groin pain and clicking (3 cases) and wear of components (3 cases). Nineteen patients revised both components while remaining six underwent revision of femoral component only. Results:The average duration of follow up was 26.8 months (28-48 months). The study was an intermediate term follow-up. Clinical outcome evaluated through Oxford, WOMAC, Harris and UCLA hip scores. Preoperative scores 21.3, 78.3, 35,7 and 2 respectively improved to 39.8, 11.1, 92.3 and 7 respectively at last follow-up representing statistically significant improvements over pre-operative scores (p < 0.0001 for each score) Radiological follow-up evaluated for component stability or signs of loosening. No cases of neurological, vascular, deep infection or implant failure. There were 3 cases (3%) with complications. one case complicated by surgical site infection with serous drainage for more than seven days and treated with oral antibiotics and daily dressings. One case had residual groin pain, and third case had mild heterotopic ossification. All patients were satisfied particularly by their pain relief. Average post operative Oxford, Harris and WOMAC hip scores were 17.4, 89.8 and 6.1 respec-tively. representing statistically significant improvements over pre operative scores (p < 0.0001 for each score)Conclusions: study shows conversion of hip resurfacing to THA has high satisfaction rates. These results compare favorably with those for revision total hip arthroplasty

Background: Professional basketball players are at increased risk of hip and groin pain. Epidemiologic data exist on the prevalence of hip and groin issues among players in the National Basketball Association (NBA), but little is known about how these injuries affect athletes after retirement. Hypothesis: A high proportion of retired NBA athletes would have hip and/or groin pain. Study Design: Cross-sectional survey. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Methods: A survey was developed through an interdisciplinary focus group. The survey was developed to capture data regarding demographics, collegiate and professional athletic injuries, and current quality of life and musculoskeletal health. The questionnaire was electronically distributed to all members of the National Basketball Players Association using SurveyMonkey (N = 900). Results: A total of 108 (12%) retired NBA players completed the survey. More than one-third (36.3%) of athletes report currently experiencing hip and/or groin pain, and 17.6% had received injections for hip or groin conditions since retiring from the NBA. Since retiring, 14.7% of respondents had undergone total hip arthroplasty. The median Tegner activity level scale was 3 out of 10. Nearly one-third (32.4%) of athletes report moderate to severe problems with mobility, and close to half (48%) had moderate to extreme pain/discomfort. Conclusion: Hip and groin injuries are common among NBA athletes, affecting players throughout their careers and into retirement. A subset of athletes may exist in whom intra-articular hip pathology is not appropriately identified and treated while playing in the NBA. Clinical Relevance: Retired NBA athletes are at high risk of hip and groin pain after retirement and are more likely to require total hip arthroplasty compared with the general population.

Increased Risk

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.
