Background: Optimal treatments of patients with borderline hip dysplasia, defined as LCEA 20°-25°, is controversial. These patients can have symptomatic impingement and/or instability. The optimal treatment of either hip arthroscopy (HA) alone or periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) (with/without hip arthroscopy) has not been established. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate surgical outcomes of patients with borderline hip dysplasia at a minimum of 2-year follow-up. Methods: A longitudinal cohort was utilized to identify patients with borderline acetabular dysplasia defined via prospective radiographic measurements. Demographics and radiographic measurements were recorded. Patient evaluation, diagnosis and treatment decisions (PAO v HA) were made by one treating surgeon. Outcome were assessed at baseline and a minimum 2 years postoperative. Descriptive and comparative statistics were performed. Failure was defined as reoperation, or failure to reach mHHS MCID (8 points) or PASS (mHHS <74). Results: Total of 113 hips were included at 4.7 years postoperatively (range 2.0-11.2 years). Overall, 76% were female and 42% of hips had PAO (65% combined with hip arthroscopy), while 58% had isolated hip arthroscopy (HA). For PAO group, mHHS improved from 57.9 to 82.8 postoperatively, compared to 62.6 to 84.0 for the HA group. Similarly, HOOS pain (PAO 48.2 to 79.1, HA 61.2 to 82.0) and HOOS Sports (PAO 36.5 to 73.0, HA 47.8 to 74.4) demonstrated similar improvements. Comparing the PAO and HA groups, the change in PRO was significantly greater for the PAO group for HOOS Pain (10.5 ±23.2, p=0.02) and HOOS ADL (9.4 ±20.5, p=0.04) which was primarily due to a lower baseline score (similar final score). No significant difference was detected for other PROs. Reoperations in the PAO group were 2% (1 hip arthroscopy) and 6% for hip arthroscopy group (3 hip arthroscopies, 1 PAO). The failure rate was 17% for PAO and 15% for HA (p=0.86). Discussion: Surgical outcomes at minimum of 2 years in patients with borderline hip dysplasia in selected patients undergoing PAO or hip arthroscopy were good. Significant differences in patient characteristics and radiographic parameters were present between hips indicated for PAO vs. HA emphasizing the need for careful diagnosis and treatment decision-making.

AbstractYoung hip surgeons are often faced with the decision to either perform arthroscopic surgery or a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) in patients with symptomatic mild hip dysplasia (MHD). There is, however, a paucity of data on the results of PAO in this group. The aim of this paper is to report the results of PAOs in patients with MHD and compare those to hips with more severe forms of hip dysplasia (SHD). This data can then be used to compare emerging data reporting the results of hip arthroscopy for MHD. From January, 1996 to May, 2009, 299 hips in 268 patients were identified that underwent PAO at one institution. After removing those with <2 years of follow-up, 182 hips were followed up. The average age of the cohort was 31 years, and 85% were female. Nineteen hips with lateral center edge (LCE) angle from 18 to 25° and a Tönnis angle (TA) between 10 and 15° were considered to have MHD. This group was compared with the rest of the cohort (SHD). The mean clinical follow-up for the MHD group was 121 months. There was no significant difference in demographic variables between the groups. There were no complications in the MHD cohort. Surgical correction resulted in significant improvements in all radiographic measurements consistent with hip dysplasia in both groups. The Harris Hip Score (HHS) improved significantly in both groups ([MHD: 52–92] [SHD: 66–89]). Two hips (10.5%) in the MHD group and 15 hips (9.2%) in the SHD group underwent future THA (p = 0.69). The survivorship free from THA was 100%, 100%, and 86% at 3, 5, and 10 years, respectively, in the MHD group. The corresponding rates for hips in the control group at 3, 5, and 10 years, respectively, were 99%, 95%, and 81%. PAO in patients with MHD provides predictable improvements in pain, function, and results that are durable and comparable to hips with SHD. This data should be used to compare the early and midterm results of arthroscopic surgery performed in mildly dysplastic hips.

Objectives: The borderline dysplastic hip (characterized by a lateral centre-edge angle (LCEA): 20 - 25° and an acetabular index (AI): 10 - 15°) can pose a significant challenge as symptoms may be due to insufficient acetabular coverage, the presence of femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI) or both. Accordingly, different treatment options have been described, including peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO), hip arthroscopy, open arthrotomy or a combination of procedures. This study aims to determine patient and deformity-specific characteristics that direct treatment decision-making in the borderline dysplastic hip. Furthermore, we describe the early-term results of both the PAO and hip arthroscopy in treating this challenging patient population. Methods: A prospective, multicenter, longitudinal surgical cohort of young adult hips was searched. From 2060 hips, 291 hips satisfied the inclusion criteria of idiopathic borderline dysplasia, adequate follow-up (> 1-year) and functional outcome. Demographic and radiographic features are included in Table 1. Fifty-five hips (19%) had a previous hip operation (most commonly a hip arthroscopy). A number of different procedure types were performed which were broadly divided into 3 groups; PAO-only (n=42), hip arthroscopy-only (n=127) or PAO and intra-articular treatment (either arthroscopically or open, addressing the cam morphology and/or labral pathology) (n=122). Outcome measures included complications-, re-operations- rates and clinical outcomes using the Harris Hip (HHS) and HOOS scores; pre-operatively and at follow-up; the difference was defined as Δ. Patient characteristics, radiographic morphology and clinical outcome measures were compared between the 3 groups. Results: Patients that underwent a PAO were younger and more likely to be female. The PAO groups had a greater number of previous hip procedures (26%, 24%), most of which were hip arthroscopies. The patients that underwent hip arthroscopy had greater incidence of high alpha angles (66%) compared to the PAO groups (35%, 38%) (p<0.001). The PAO groups having slightly more dysplastic features (LCEA, AI, ACEA) (Table 1). At a mean follow-up of 2.5 years, there were no differences in the complication (7-10%, p=0.8) or re-operation rates (13%). Pre-operatively, the PAO groups had inferior HOOS and WOMAC scores compared to the arthroscopy group (p=0.02-7). No differences in the post-op scores were seen (Table 1). The groups that addressed the intra-articular pathology (arthroscopy and PAO-articular treatment) had significantly greater ΔHHS (23) compared to PAO-only (13) (p=0.02). Conclusion: Younger patients, those with a failed previous arthroscopy, without evidence of intra-articular wear and with worse pre-operative function were more likely to receive a PAO (with or without articular adjunct treatment). Addressing the intra-articular and impingement-related pathology (in addition to a when a PAO is considered necessary) was associated with better improvement in PROMs and should be strongly considered in the borderline hip.

Background: Previous studies on periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) reported complication and reoperation rates of 5.9% and 10%, respectively. Hip arthroscopy is increasingly utilized as an adjunct procedure to PAO to precisely treat associated intra-articular pathology. The addition of this procedure has the potential of further increasing complication rates. Purpose: To determine the rates of complication and reoperation of combined hip arthroscopy and PAO for the treatment of acetabular deformities and associated intra-articular lesions. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: Using a prospective database, the authors retrospectively reviewed 248 hips (240 patients) that underwent combined hip arthroscopy and PAO between 2007 and 2016. Data were collected at scheduled follow-up visits at approximately 1 month, 3 to 4 months, and 1 and 2 years after surgery. Mean follow-up from surgery was 3 years (range, 1-8 years). A total of 220 PAOs were done for symptomatic acetabular dysplasia, 18 for symptomatic acetabular retroversion, and 10 for combined acetabular dysplasia and acetabular retroversion. Central compartment arthroscopy was performed for treatment of intra-articular chondrolabral pathology in all cases. Select cases underwent femoral head-neck junction osteochondroplasty either arthroscopically before the PAO or through an open approach after it. Complications were graded according to the modified Dindo-Clavien complication scheme, which was validated for hip preservation procedures. Reoperations (excluding hardware removal) were recorded. Results: Grade III complications occurred among 7 patients (3%) while there were no grade IV complications. Grade III complications included deep infection (n = 3), wound dehiscence (n = 1), hematoma requiring exploration (n = 1), symptomatic heterotopic ossification requiring excision (n = 1), and deep venous thrombosis (n = 1). There were 13 reoperations (5%), and 3 were repeat hip arthroscopy. Univariate Cox hazard models were used to estimate the relative risk factors for complication and reoperation. Increased age (per decade) showed over twice the increased likelihood for complications (hazard ratio, 2.5; 95% CI, 1.67-3.74). Also, preoperative diagnosis of acetabular retroversion, not acetabular dysplasia, showed >3 times the increased risk of reoperation (hazard ratio, 3.05; 95% CI, 1.41-6.61). Conclusion: The rate of complications reported is comparable (3%) with previously published complication rates of PAO without hip arthroscopy. In this cohort, increasing age and diagnosis of acetabular retroversion were associated with higher complication and reoperation rates.

Aim: We purposed to describe the surgical technique and preliminary outcomes of combined arthroscopic and periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for the treatment of non-arthritic hip dysplasia. Methods: Between May and August 2015, 4 patients (3 female, 1 male) with an average age of 29 years old (range; 22-33) had undergone one-stage hip arthroscopy and periacetabular osteotomy. Primary symptom was pain associated with instability. Upon radiographic examination, mean lateral center-edge angle of Wiberg was 12° (range; 7°-18°). Intra-articular findings were computed and primary outomes were as follows: radiographic angular correction; time to healing after pelvis osteotomy and functional results according to Merle D’Aubigné Score. Results: Minimum follow-up was 6 months whereas maximum was 9 months. Mean surgical time was 98 minutes for hip arthroscopy and 132 minutes for the osteotomy. In all cases, a lesion of the antero-superior labrum and the chondro-labral junction was found and repaired. After correction, overall postoperative center-edge angle was 29° (range; 25°-35°). Bone healing was certified in all cases at 6 months postoperatively. Overall Merle D’Aubigné Score was 17/18 points. Conclusion: Combined treatment of non-arthritic hip dysplasia with hip arthroscopy and PAO obtained good clinical and radiological outcomes. Former arthroscopy enables the diagnosis of cartilage lesions and intra-articular pathology as well as it aids in proceeding or not to an open correction.

Abstract Treatment of borderline acetabular dysplasia (lateral center edge angle ≥18°) remains controversial, and there is a paucity of literature focusing on outcomes in adolescent patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) as surgical management of borderline acetabular dysplasia in adolescent patients. We performed a retrospective review of prospectively collected data and included patients ≤ 21 years of age that underwent PAO for borderline acetabular dysplasia. All patients had a minimum of 1-year follow-up. Outcomes were assessed using modified Harris Hip Scores (mHHS), Hip Outcome Scores (HOS) and international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33). Descriptive and univariate statistical analyses were performed. This study included 33 adolescent patients (35 hips) with symptomatic, borderline acetabular dysplasia. The majority of patients was female (32 patients, 97%); half of all patients reported a history of hip pain for over 1 year; and seven patients had previous hip arthroscopy. In addition to PAO, seven hips (20%) underwent a concurrent hip arthroscopy at the time of surgery. There were significant improvements in mean mHHS, HOS-activities of daily living (ADL), HOS-Sport and iHOT-33 scores after surgery (P &lt; 0.01). Minimal clinically important difference in outcome scores was achieved for over 90% of patients at a minimum of 1-year follow-up. Borderline acetabular dysplasia is a major cause of hip pain in adolescent patients. Patients with symptomatic borderline acetabular dysplasia report a significant benefit after a PAO to correct structural hip instability.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO), and eccentric rotational acetabular osteotomy (ERAO) for treating hip dysplasia by comparing complication rates, survivorship, and functional outcomes after treatment. A systematic review in the MEDLINE and CINAHL databases was performed, and studies reporting outcomes after pelvic osteotomy for hip dysplasia with a minimum of 1-year follow-up or reported postoperative complications was included. Patient demographics, radiographic measurements, patient reported outcomes including the modified Harris hip score (mHHS), complications using the modified Clavien-Dindo classification, and reoperations were extracted from each study. A meta-analysis of outcome scores, complications, change in acetabular coverage, and revision rates for the 3 pelvic osteotomies was performed. A total of 47 articles detailing outcomes of 6,107 patients undergoing pelvic osteotomies were included in the final analysis. When stratified by procedure, RAO had a statistically greater change in LCEA when compared to PAO (33.9° vs 18.0°; P &lt;0.001). The average pooled mHHS improvement was 15.6 (95% CI: 8.3–22.8, I2= 99.4%). Although ERAO had higher mean score improvements when compared to RAO and PAO, the difference was not statistically significant (P &gt;0.05). Lastly, patients undergoing PAO had a statistically greater complication rate than those undergoing ERAO and RAO (P &lt;0.001 for both), while revision rate was not statistically different between the 3 techniques. In summary, there are many more publications on PAO surgery with a wide range of reported complications. Complications after ERAO and RAO surgery are lower than PAO surgery in the literature, but it is unclear whether this represents an actual difference or a reporting bias. Lastly, there are no significant differences between revisions, or postoperative reported outcomes between the 3 techniques.

ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the safety of hip arthroscopy combined with a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) compared with PAO alone in treating concomitant intra-articular pathology in hip dysplasia. Materials and methods Forty-one patients (46 hips) with symptomatic hip dysplasia were retrospectively reviewed. Pre- and postoperative radiographic data and intraoperative data consisting of estimated blood loss, intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusions, operative time, and length of hospital stay were recorded. The complications occurring within the first 3 months after surgery including lateral femoral cutaneous and pudendal nerve neuropraxia, wound complications, and reoperations were recorded. Additionally, rates of deep venous thrombosis and other major adverse outcomes (myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, stroke, death) were examined. Results Twenty-one patients (24 hips) underwent PAO alone. Twenty patients (22 hips) underwent hip arthroscopy followed immediately by PAO. There were no significant differences in the 90-day complication rates between the two groups, comparing the rate of neuropraxia (p = 0.155) and wound complications (p = 0.6). Operative time for PAO alone was 179 minutes (standard deviation [SD] ± 37) compared with 251 minutes (SD ± 52) for combined hip arthroscopy and PAO (p < 0.001). No incidence of deep vein thrombosis or major adverse events was noted in either group. Preoperative lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and acetabular index (AI) were 14° and 20° respectively, in the PAO-alone group and 19° and 16° respectively, in the combined group. Postoperatively, LCEA was 29° in the PAO-alone group and 30° in the combined group. Postoperative AI was 11° in the PAO-alone group and 5° in the combined group. Conclusion This study demonstrates that hip arthroscopy in combination with PAO to treat intra-articular pathology shows no difference in 90-day complication rates when compared with PAO alone.

Abstract Background: Residual hip dysplasia is one of the factors contributing to early hip joint osteoarthritis. The main problems caused by residual dysplasia are pain and instability of the hip joint caused by the lack of sufficient bony covering of the femoral head. The aim of this work was to radiologically assess the configuration change of a dysplastic hip joint after surgical treatment using the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy procedure.Methods: We assessed the radiological parameters of patients with hip dysplasia treated by Bernense periacetabular osteotomy by performing a digital antero-posterior pelvis X-ray: central edge angle and femoral head coverage, medialization, distalization and ilio-ischial angle parameters. For normally distributed parameters, we used Student’s t-test; for parameters without a normal distribution, we used the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Correlations were assessed according to a normal distribution using the Pearson and Spearman method.Results: For all parameters, we observed statistically significant differences in the measurements of dysplastic hip joints before and after the surgery. We also observed a statistically significant difference between the structure of dysplastic hip joints prior to the surgery and healthy hip joints from the control group based on all radiological parameters. The resulting medialization was 2.68 mm, distalization was 3.65 mm, and the ilio-ischial angle was changed by 2.62°. There was also an improvement in the femoral head bony covering: CEA by 17.61° and FHC by 16.46%.Conclusions: Based on all the radiological parameters, we presented the difference between healthy and dysplastic hip joints. Learning the parameter values that are used to describe dysplastic hip joints will allow us to improve the imaging of the condition and will also allow for better planning and proper qualification of patients for surgical treatment of hip joint dysplasia.Trial registration: Consent of the bioethics commission Medical Centre of Postgraduate Education 83/PB/2015 18.11.2015 Warsaw
