Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract Background: We performed the retrospective cohort study to compare the acetabular cup orientation, including anteversion angle (AA) and inclination angle (IA), of dominant hand side and non-dominant hand side after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) by right-handed orthopedic surgeons. Methods: Between January 2018 and December 2018, 290 patients who aged below 60 years and underwent primary THA were retrospective screened. Patients who had hemiarthroplasty, previous hip surgery, ankylosing spondylitis, developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH, Crowe type-Ⅲ and type-Ⅳ), severe comorbidity, missing information, inferior quality radiographs were excluded. According to the surgery side, all patients were divided into left group and right group. Postoperative plain radiographs were analyzed to compare the AA and IA between left and right side. Univariate and stepwise multivariable linear regression to control included confounding factors. Stratified analysis was performed to identify whether the operation approach can affect the result, including anterolateral (ALA) and posterolateral approach (PLA). Results: The mean AA was 17.7° (range 6.0° to 30.0°) and 21.0° (range 9.5° to 35.0°) for the left and right side respectively. The mean difference was 3.28° (95% CI: 1.92 – 4.64; P<0.001). The mean IA was 41.1° (range 24.0° to 59.0°) and 40.1° (range 20.5° to 56.0°) for the left and right side respectively (P=0.314). 113 patients' AA within the “safe zone” in the left (93.4 %), while the right was 93 patients (82.3 %) (P=0.009). 95 patients' IA within the “safe zone” in the left (78.5 %), while the right was 97 patients (85.8 %) (P=0.144). The IA of ALA group was smaller than PLA group in both sides. The mean difference was 3.98° (95% CI: 1.22 - 6.74; P=0.005). Conclusions: We concluded that AA in left side may be more accurate than right side after primary THA by right-handed surgeons. The IA was no difference between the two sides, while it was smaller in ALA than in PLA. The results are still needed to be verified in future.

Introduction: The correct moment for return to driving after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. Until today no uniform recommendation exists on the ability to perform an emergency brake. The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the braking ability of patients before and after THA implantation based on brake reaction time in milliseconds (BRT) and braking force in N (BF). Methods: In total, 25 patients (15 men, 10 women, mean age 51.3 ± 10.1 years) were treated with THA on the right side. Inclusion criteria consisted of a valid driving licence, frequent road participation and at least 2 years of driving experience. Exclusion criteria were underlying neurological disorders as well as severe complaints in the lumbar spine and the right knee joint. The brake ability was evaluated for emergency braking with a car simulator and a measuring sole. Measurements were performed preoperatively, 6 days, 2, 4 and 6 weeks after surgery. Results: Preoperatively, the mean BRT was 671.3 ± 123.5 ms and the BF 455.4 ± 185.0 N. Significant differences were observed at 6 days and 2 weeks after surgery, (BRT 836.4 ± 219.7 ms, respectively, BRT 735.0 ± 186.7 ms, and BF 302.6 ± 154.9 N, respectively, BF 375.5 ± 149.3 N, p < 0.05). Only 4 weeks after, no significant differences were seen compared to pre-operative with a BRT of 647.0 ± 91.9ms ( p = 0.354) and BF of 435.9 ± 177.4 ( p = 0.843). Furthermore, the BRT improved significantly after 6 weeks (607.4 ± 87.6; p = 0.005). Conclusions: The braking force is significantly reduced, and the brake reaction time is prolonged directly after surgery for at least 2 weeks. After 4 weeks, no statistically significant differences were measured, although special care should still be taken during return to activity.

Purpose: To develop a non-invasive method for detection of acetabular cup migration after total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a higher degree of accuracy than routine plain radiography. Material and Methods: Two CT examinations, 10 min apart, were obtained from each of 10 patients that had undergone THA. Using an in-house developed semiautomated program for volume merging, the pelves in the two examinations were fused and the acetabular cup was visually and numerically evaluated to test the method's accuracy in detecting migration. Results: In the visual evaluation of the best match a 1-mm translation of the cup was detectable. The numerical evaluation, comparing landmarks placed in the images of the acetabular cup and the head of the femur component in the two examinations, showed the mean difference in orientation of acetabular axes to be 2.5°, the mean distance between centre of cup face to be 2.5 mm and the mean distance between centre of the head of the prosthetic femoral component to be 1 mm. Conclusion: This method has a significantly higher accuracy than routine plain radiography in detecting acetabular cup migration and could be used in clinical practice. It gives both a visual and a numerical correlate to migration.

Cup Positioning

Computer-assisted navigation has the potential to improve the accuracy of cup positioning during total hip arthroplasty (THA) and prevent leg length discrepancy (LLD). The purpose of this study was to compare acetabular cup position and post- operative LLD after primary THA using posterolateral approach. Between August 2016 to December 2017, 57 THAs using imageless navigation were matched with 57 THA without navigation, based on age, gender and BMI. Post-operative weight-bearing radiographs were assessed using for anteversion, inclination and LLD. Goal for functional cup placement was 40° inclination and 20° anteversion based on preoperative weight bearing pelvic images. Functional LLD was measured as compared to pre- operative radiographs and contralateral side. Proportion of cups within Lewinnek’s safe zone, proximity to a pre-operative target of and the LLD &gt;5 mm was assessed. The mean age was 54.9 ± 9.6 years (30 – 72) and 57.6 ± 12.5 years (20 – 85) in control and navigated groups, respectively. Mean cup orientation in the navigated group was 20.6°± 3.3° (17 - 25) of anteversion and 41.9°± 4.8° (30 - 51) of inclination, vs. 25.0°± 11.1° (10 - 31) and 45.7°± 8.7° (29 – 55) in control group, where were statistically significant (p=0.005 and p=0.0001), respectively. In the navigated group, significantly more acetabular cups were placed within Lewinnek’s safe zone (anteversion: 78% vs. 47%, p=0.005; inclination: 92% vs. 67%, p=0.002). There was no significant difference in mean LLD in navigation and control groups (3.1 ± 1.5 mm vs. 4.6 ± 3.4 mm, p=0.36), although fewer LLDs &gt;5 mm were reported in the navigated group (7.1%) than in controls (31.4%, p=0.007). The use of this image-less computer-assisted navigation improved the accuracy with which acetabular cup components were placed and may represent an important method for limiting post-operative complications related to cup malpositioning and LLD.

Abstract Background Although hip arthroplasty has become increasingly common, its radiological and clinical outcomes in chronic renal failure patients remain unclear. This study analyzed the outcomes of hip arthroplasty in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing dialysis. Methods Of 2,364 hips undergoing total hip arthroplasty or bipolar hemiarthroplasty between January 2003 and December 2017, data pertaining of 37 hips of patients with chronic renal failure undergoing dialysis (16 men, 21 women) were retrospectively examined. We analyzed the radiological and clinical outcomes of hip arthroplasty, as well as the occurrence of local and general complications (particularly the time of their occurrence) during follow-up and their association with dialysis duration. Results The mean patient age was 60.6 ± 13.5 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 36.6 ± 27.2 months. The mean T-value indicating bone mineral density was -2.62 ± 1.15, with osteoporosis noted in 20 cases. Except for 1 case with infection-induced change in acetabular cup tilt, all cases of total hip arthroplasty with cementless acetabular cup implant exhibited excellent radiographic outcomes. The cementless proximally coated femoral stem was used in all 25 cases of total hip arthroplasty and 7 out of 12 cases of bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Changes in the alignment of femoral stems, subsidence, osteolysis, and loosening were not observed. On clinical assessment, 33 patients received an “excellent” or “good” Harris hip score. Within 1 year postoperatively, complications developed in 18 patients, and some patients exhibited more than 1 complication. More than 1 year after surgery, general complications developed in 12 patients; however, no patient experienced local complications.Conclusions Hip arthroplasty in chronic renal failure patients on dialysis showed excellent radiological and satisfactory clinical outcomes; however, it may be associated with various postoperative complications. Therefore, meticulous preoperative treatment planning and overall postoperative management are required to reduce the risk of complications.

Purpose: To evaluate cup-positioning accuracy in total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a novel angle-adjusting alignment guide with laser pointer and determine whether level of surgical experience affects accuracy of cup placement or not. Methods: We included 117 hips in 104 patients who underwent THA using the novel guide. We retrospectively reviewed 44 hips in 40 patients who underwent THA before the novel guide was introduced. We compared differences in cup angles between the novel guide group and the conventional guide group as well as the discrepancies in targeted angles between the experienced surgeon group and the inexperienced surgeon group. Results: There were 114/117 hips (97.4%) within the Lewinnek safe zone in the novel guide group and 32/44 hips (72.7%) within the safe zone in the conventional guide group. There were significantly fewer outliers in the novel guide group ( p < 0.001). In the experienced surgeon group, the mean absolute errors in inclination and anteversion were 2.0 ± 1.7° and 2.1 ± 2.3°, respectively; which were not significantly different from those in the inexperienced surgeon group (2.3 ± 2.1° and 2.8 ± 2.3°, respectively). Conclusion: The novel angle-adjusting alignment guide with laser pointer is a simple tool that provides better accuracy of cup position than that obtained using conventional guides. Accurate cup placement is possible using the novel guide, regardless of surgeons’ experience.

Abstract Introduction: This study aimed to report the initial results of the cementless UNITED hip system in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Methods We retrospectively studied a consecutive series of 203 cementless THAs in 180 patients operated between 2015–2017. We included 89 female and 91 male patients with a mean age of 67 (28 to 89) years. The mean follow-up was 40 (29 to 62) months. Clinical outcome scores and radiographs were measured. Survival was calculated defining failure as the need for any further femoral or acetabular revision, irrespective of the reason. Results No femoral component loosening was detected. One patient had a Vancouver-B1 intraoperative periprosthetic femoral fracture treated with implant retention and cerclage wires. Two acetabular components were revised for aseptic loosening. Three patients suffered an acute infection treated with debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention. The mean Merle d'Aubigné et Postel scores improved from 13 (4 to 16) points preoperatively to 17 (12 to 18) points at the latest follow-up (p < 0.001). At a mean time of 40 months of follow-up, the survival was 99% and 100% for the acetabular and the femoral components, respectively. Conclusion This cementless design showed excellent preliminary outcomes in terms of fixation and patient satisfaction, comparable to that of other well-known similar systems.

The Relationship

Abstract Background: Precise acetabular cup placement is essential for successful total hip arthroplasty (THA). In obese patients, its accuracy is often difficult to achieve because of the thickness of the soft tissues. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the accuracy of acetabular cup angle and body mass index (BMI) in posterolateral THA using the computed tomography-based navigation (CT-navi) system.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 145 consecutive primary THAs using the CT-navi system between January 2015 and January 2018. All surgeries were performed using cementless cups employing the posterolateral approach with the patient in the decubitus position. We compared the radiographic inclination and anteversion obtained from the angle displayed on the CT-navi screen with those measured by the postoperative CT using the three-dimensional templating software. We evaluated the relationship between the extent of errors and correlation with BMI. Statistical analyses were performed using the Student’s t-test and Spearman’s rank coefficient test.Results: In non-overweight patients (BMI < 25, 88 hips), the mean navigation errors for inclination were 2.8 ± 2.2° and for anteversion were 2.6 ± 2.3°. Meanwhile, in overweight patients (BMI ≥ 25, 57 hips), the mean navigation errors were 2.6 ± 2.4° for inclination and 2.4 ± 2.4° for anteversion. We found no significant difference between overweight and non-overweight patients in both inclination and anteversion. The Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients were -0.04 for inclination and -0.11 for anteversion, showing no correlation between the extent of errors and BMI.Conclusions: In posterolateral THA, CT-navi can aid the precise placement of the acetabular cup irrespective of a patient’s BMI.Trial registration: This trial was retrospectively registered and approved by the institutional ethics committee of Teikyo University. The registration number is 17-190, and the date of approval was March 1, 2018. URL of trial registry is: https://www.teikyo-u.ac.jp/application/files/7015/8432/1341/2016_all_syounin_1.pdf

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and outcome of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty at our unit. PATIENTS AND METHODS In total, 1727 primary total joint arthroplasties and 305 revision total hip arthroplasties were performed between 1993 and 1996 at our unit. We followed up 1567 (91%) of the primary hip arthroplasties and 284 (93%) of the revision hip arthroplasties at 8–11 years after surgery. Patients were traced by postal questionnaire, telephone interview or examination of case notes of the deceased. RESULTS The dislocation rates by approach were 23 out of 555 (4.1%) for the posterior approach, 0 out of 120 (0%) for the Omega approach and 30 out of 892 (3.4%) for the modified Hardinge approach. Of dislocations after primary total hip arthroplasty, 58.5% were recurrent. The mean number of dislocations per patient was 2.81. Overall, 8.1% of revision total hip arthroplasties dislocated. 70% of these became recurrent. The mean number of dislocations per patient was 2.87. The vast majority of dislocations occurred within 2 months of surgery. DISCUSSION To our knowledge, this is the largest multisurgeon audit of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty published in the UK. The follow-up of 8–11 years is longer than most comparable studies. The results of this study can be used to inform patients as to the risk and outcome of dislocation, as well as to the risk of further dislocation.
