Abstract Background: To compare the outcomes of debridement and total hip arthroplasty (THA) with antibiotic-loaded spacer implantation and subsequent THA for the treatment of patients affected by primary advanced septic arthritis (SA) of the hip in adults. Methods: All of the 20 patients (20 hips) underwent two-stage surgery. Nine patients were submitted to surgical debridement first, and then THA (group 1), while 11 patients were treated with antibiotic-loaded spacer and subsequent THA (group 2). Patients were evaluated based on the recurrence of infection, Harris hip score, visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score and leg-length discrepancy. Results: No cases of infection, deep vein thrombosis, death, and loosening of hip prosthesis were observed during follow-up. The mean follow-up time was 29.09 ± 10.80 months in group 1, and 28.22 ± 14.80 months in group 2. Before the THA surgery, the mean leg-length discrepancy was 2.80 ± 2.03 cm in group 1, and 0.50 ± 0.23 cm in group 2 (P < 0.05). In the latest follow-up, The Harris hip scores of patients was 90.33 ± 4.85 in group 1 and 94.36 ± 2.34 in group 2 (P < 0.05), respectively. There was no statistical significant difference in VAS pain score of the hip between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Antibiotic-loaded spacer and subsequent THA is an effective method for the treatment of advanced SA of the hip in adults due to it can control infection and significantly improve functional hip.

Abstract Background To compare the outcomes of debridement and antibiotic-loaded spacer implantation in primary advanced septic arthritis (SA) of the hip in adults treated with two-stage total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods In the first stage, 9 patients were treated with debridement and 11 patients were treated with antibiotic-loaded spacer implantation. Then, THA was conducted in all patients in the second stage. Patients were evaluated based on the recurrence of infection, Harris hip score, visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score and leg-length discrepancy. Results No cases of infection, deep vein thrombosis, death, and loosening of hip prosthesis were observed during follow-up. The mean follow-up time was 29.09 ± 10.80 months in the debridement with THA group, and 28.22 ± 14.80 months in the spacer implantation with THA group. Before the THA surgery, the mean leg-length discrepancy was 2.80 ± 2.03 cm in the debridement with THA group, and 0.50 ± 0.23 cm in the spacer implantation with THA group (P < 0.05). In the latest follow-up, The Harris hip scores of patients was 90.33 ± 4.85 in the debridement with THA group and 94.36 ± 2.34 in the spacer implantation with THA group (P < 0.05), respectively. There was no statistical significant difference in VAS pain score of the hip between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions Two-stage THA using antibiotic-loaded spacer implantation is an effective method for the treatment of advanced SA of the hip in adults due to it can control infection and significantly improve functional hip.

Purpose: To determine if initial treatment affects the outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA) after acetabular fracture. Methods: 49 patients (49 hips) initially treated non-operatively followed some months later by THA in conjunction with acetabular reconstruction (Group 1) and 29 patients (29 hips) who had undergone THA after a previous osteosynthesis (Group 2) were assessed. The mean follow-up was 11.7 (range 5–23) years. Results: 3 acetabular components were revised for aseptic loosening in Group 1 and 2 in Group 2. The survival rate for cup loosening at 16 years was 90.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 78.1–100) for Group 1 and 94.1% (95% CI, 86.5–100) for Group 2 ( p = 0.76). There were 2 sciatic palsies in Group 2 after osteosynthesis. The mean preoperative clinical score and postoperative range of mobility were better in Group 1. There were more heterotopic ossifications in Group 2. Conclusion: Despite the good results found in both groups, THA after previous osteosynthesis for acetabular fractures had more complications than a primary THA in conjunction with acetabular reconstruction.

There is a need of independent prospective studies about modern generation of hip resurfacing implants. The aim of this propective observational study was to compare the functional outcomes and revision rates with hip resurfacing arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty and to present the preliminary results at 2 years. Patients included were recruited prospectively in the <em>Partial Pelvic Replacement Hip Project </em>by a single surgeon between January 2007 and January 2010. Patients were assessed with the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Postel-Merle d’Aubigné (MDA) score and Devane Score. The end point of the study was reoperation for any cause related to the prosthesis. At a mean follow up of 38.6 months there were a total of 142 patients with hip resurfacing (group 1) [100 Durom® (Zimmer Inc., Warsaw, IN, USA) and 42 Birmingham Hip Resurfacing® (Smith &amp; Nephew, Memphis, TN, USA)] and 278 patients with total hip arthroplasty (group 2). The results showed significantly greater gain of HHS, MDA and Devane score with hip resurfacing procedures. However, considering all the complications, the rate was significantly higher in group 16.4% <em>vs</em> 1.79% in group 2 (P&lt;0.0001). In group 1 we observed 6 complications only concerned males with Durom® implants. The follow up of this cohort is still on going and may deliver more information on the evolution of these results in time.

The aim of this study is to present our experience with two-stage reimplantation in the management of the infected hip arthroplasty. Between January 1993 and December 2001 the replacement of the total hip arthroplasty in two stages was performed in 18 patients. There were 7 male and 11 female patients and the average age was 62 years. The mean follow-up after revision was 3.5 years. The mean postoperative Harris Hip Score averaged 78 (50–96) points. None of 18 patients had a recurrence of the infection. Two-stage reconstruction of the infected hip is preferred to one-stage exchange arthroplasty at our department because of higher rate of eradication of the infection.

Abstract Introduction The optimal treatment of patients with a degenerative joint disease secondary to an active or chronic septic arthritis of the hip is unclear. The aim of the present study was to report on our experience with two-stage total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a contemporary treatment protocol without spacer insertion. Materials and methods Our prospective institutional database was used to identify all patients with degenerative septic arthritis treated with a non-spacer two-stage protocol between 2011 and 2017. Clinical outcomes included interim revision, periprosthetic infection (PJI) and aseptic revision rates. Restoration of leg-length and offset were assessed radiographically. Modified Harris hip score (mHHS) were obtained. Treatment success was defined using the modified Delphi consensus criteria. Mean follow-up was 62 months (13–110). Results A total of 33 patients with a mean age of 60 years (13–85) were included. 55% of the cohort was male and average Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was 3.7 (0–12). 21 patients (64%) had an active/acute infection and 12 patients (36%) were treated for chronic/quiescent septic arthritis. Overall, 11 patients (33%) had treatment failure, including 5 patients who failed to undergo THA, 2 interim re-debridement for persistent infection, and 4 patients who developed PJI after an average of 7 months (0.3–13) following THA. The most common identified pathogen was Staphylococcus aureus (42.4%). No aseptic revision was recorded following THA. Leg-length and offset were successfully restored. Mean mHHS improved from 35.2 points to 73.4 points. Conclusion Two-stage THA without spacer placement is a viable treatment option for destructive septic arthritis of the hip, demonstrating comparable rates of infection control and functional outcome. However, definitive resection arthroplasty is not uncommon in these often critically ill patients.

Abstract Background: Intraoperative navigation systems have been shown to improve the accuracy of acetabular component insertion in total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy of cup orientation in primary THA using an image-free navigation system.Methods: A total of 107 consecutive cementless THAs using an image-free navigation system were performed from February 2017 to March 2020 (the navigation group). As a control group, 77 retrospective consecutive cases who underwent THAs with manual implant-techniques between February 2012 and April 2017 were included. Postoperative cup radiographic inclination and radiographic anteversion relative to the functional pelvic plane were assessed using a 3D-template system after computed tomography (CT) examination.Results: The mean absolute errors of the postoperative measured angles from the target angles in inclination were 3.4°±3.0° in the navigation group and 8.4°±6.6° in the control group (p<0.001). The mean absolute errors in anteversion were 5.1° ± 3.6° in the navigation group and 10.8° ± 6.5° in the control group (p<0.001). The percentage of cups inside the Lewinnek safe zone was 93% in the navigation group and 44% in the control group (p<0.001). The mean absolute values of navigation error were 3.3° ± 2.8° in inclination and 5.8° ± 4.9° in anteversion. Among the cases of osteoarthritis, the inclination error was significantly higher in Crowe group 2 to 4 than in Crowe group 1 (5.1° ± 3.5° and 3.0° ± 2.5°, respectively, p<0.05). The percentage of hips with inclination error over 10° in Crowe group 2 to 4 was significantly higher than in Crowe group 1 (17% and 1%, respectively, p<0.05).Conclusions: The image-free navigation system improved the accuracy of cup orientation. The accuracy of cup position was less in Crowe group 2 to 4 than in Crowe group 1.

Introduction : The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to compare the surgical treatment of non-ONFH in adulthood by curettage and bone grafting with treatment by curettage and bone grafting in combination with invasive electromagnetic field treatment using Magnetodyn®. This was assessed by examining whether electromagnetic field treatment has a positive additive effect on the clinical parameters modified Harris Hip Score according to Haddad, Cook and Brinker, Merle d'Aubigné hip score and visual analogue scale, and on the subsequent need for treatment by total hip arthroplasty. Materials and Methodology : The prospective, non-randomised study included 35 patients with unilateral or bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head. These were divided into two groups according to the surgical treatment regime and assessed over a 12-month follow-up period. The study group (Group 1) comprised 19 patients (14 men and 5 women) with a total of 22 non-ONFH, who underwent minimally invasive curettage, bone grafting and electromagnetic field treatment (Magnetodyn®) by implantation of a bipolar induction screw. The control group (Group 2) comprised 16 patients (12 men and 4 women) with a total of 18 non-ONFH, who underwent minimally invasive curettage and bone grafting without Magnetodyn® therapy. At the initial pre-operative examination and the 6 and 12-month follow-up, all patients were assessed by clinical examination and radiological monitoring, and by bilateral hip MRI. The clinical evaluation was based on the modified Harris Hip Score according to Haddad, Cook and Brinker, the Merle d`Aubigné hip score and the visual analogue scale (VAS). Results : At the time of follow-up, total hip arthroplasty (THA) had been performed in four patients in Group 1 (18%). In Group 2, four patients (22%) had received a THA (n.s.). Both procedures led to an improvement in the clinical scores (Harris Hip Score, Merle d`Aubigné score and VAS), although no significant difference was observed. Conclusion : The authors conclude that electromagnetic field treatment with Magnetodyn®, using the special signal protocol applied here, as an adjunct to curettage and autologous bone grafting to treat non-ONFH, does not produce better clinical results and does not offer better prophylaxis for the avoidance of total hip arthroplasty over all ARCO stages.

Introduction: Over the past several years, femoral short-stem hip implants have become more popular as a treatment option in the field of primary hip arthroplasty for younger and more active patients. Current data on clinical outcomes and the implant survival rates in patients with short-stem implants cover a maximum of five to six years. The aim of this study was to assess the survival rates, as well as clinical and functional outcomes, in total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the Nanos® short-stem implant (Smith & Nephew, Marl, Germany) over a follow-up period exceeding 5 y. Materials and Methods: This single-center retrospective study included the first 100 patients who were treated at the Department of Orthopedics at the University Hospital Halle (Saale) between January 2008 and February 2009. Ultimately, the complete data of 51 patients (54 hips) were reviewed. The follow-up period was from May to November 2017. We evaluated patient satisfaction regarding pain and function using a grading system. The Harris Hip Score and Forgotten Joint Score were obtained to evaluate functional outcome after THA. Postoperative radiographic evaluation included the measurement of leg-length discrepancy, changes in the shaft axis, femoral offset and horizontal or vertical center of rotation. Potential postoperative shaft angulation or axial shaft migration was also determined. Radiographic images were checked for radiolucent lines and heterotopic ossification using the classification systems outlined by Green and Brooker. Results: The average follow-up was 97.8 months (8.2 y). The mean patient age at follow-up was 68 y and the body mass index was 28.2 kg/m2. The mean Harris hip score at follow-up was 92.0 and the Forgotten Joint Score was 91.7 %. Survey results showed that patient satisfaction and pain perception were rated very good. No significant change in leg length was observed (mean: 0.1 mm shortening). Overall, a rather varus stem positioning was detected postoperatively (mean: 3.1°). The femoral offset was slightly reduced on average in the entire patient group (mean: -1.8 mm). In the horizontal plane, lateralization of the center of rotation was detected overall (mean: 0.7 mm). In the vertical plane, cranialization was noted (mean: 1.4 mm). The CCD angle did not change. There was no further stem migration postoperatively. Radiolucent lines occurred in 10 cases in Gruen zones 1 and 7. Heterotopic ossification occurred in stages 1 to 3 according to the Brooker classification system. We found no cases of aseptic loosening or other reasons for revision. Conclusion: The outcomes after a mean follow-up of 97.8 months (8.2 y) showed that high levels of patient satisfaction and functional outcome can be achieved with the use of a short-stem endoprosthesis. Sufficient restoration of the patient's individual anatomy paired with high survival rates makes this short-stem prosthesis a reliable implant in total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract Background Total two-stage exchange is commonly used in clinical practice as a treatment for infected total hip arthroplasty (THA); however, this approach involves considerable limitations, including significant bone loss and severe trauma. This retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate clinical outcomes following the use of partial two-stage exchange (PTE) for infected THA. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of 28 patients with infected THA who were treated by PTE between September 2000 and June 2019. Eligibility for PTE was limited to patients with a well-fixed femoral stem prosthesis. In the first stage of the operation, the femoral stem prosthesis was preserved; subsequently, the acetabular prosthesis, liner, and head were replaced with an antibiotic-loaded spacer. The new prosthesis was then implanted into patients and monitored for at least 3 months to ensure freedom from infection. Results Patients were followed for an average of 4 years (range, 2–11 years), with an overall success rate of 85.7% (24/28). The mean Harris hip score at the final follow-up was 76.2 ± 11.7 points. Conclusions The findings of this study suggest that PTE could be an acceptable option for a subset of patients with infected THA, offering a satisfactory infection control rate and clinical outcomes comparable to those of total two-stage exchange, but with less harm.
