Aim. The author of the article shows the features of the surgical technique of implantation of the developed cementless modular bipolar endoprosthesis of the head of the radial bone with a pair of metal-metal friction. Materials and methods. The developed cementless modular bipolar endoprosthesis of the radial head with a pair of metal-metal friction. Indications for endoprosthetic of the head of the radial were the fracture of the head IV, according to Mason-Hotchkiss. The result of the treatment was assessed by the Mayo Elbow Performance Score evaluation system. Results and discussion. At fractures on Mason-Hotchkiss IV type, the endoprosthetic of the head of a radial bone is applied. The use of the developed modular endoprosthesis of the head of the radial made it possible to restore the stability of the elbow joint, to resume rotational movements of the head radial, while maintaining the functional volume of flexion-extensor movements, and also to restore the length of the radial bone. Conclusions. The use of the developed advanced cementless bipolar modular endoprosthesis of radial head fracture-dislocation type IV by Mason-Hotchkiss allowed obtaining a good result, according to the assessment of the MEPS clinic (88.5 scores) in 6 months after surgery.

Combined Injuries

Einleitung: Kombinierte Verletzungen des Capitulum humeri und des Radiusköpfchens sind selten. Meist sind neben den osteocartilaginären Schäden am Gelenk auch Verletzungen der Kollateralbänder assoziiert. Behandlungsempfehlungen für diese seltenen schwerwiegenden Ellenbogenverletzungen fehlen. Studientyp: In einer retrospektiven Analyse werden fünf Fälle untersucht, bei denen die osteocartilaginären Verletzungen des Capitulum humeri durch den gleichen Zugang, der zur Versorgung des Radiusköpfchens verwendet wurde, versorgt wurden. Die Osteosynthese erfolgte mit Mini-Titanimplantaten z.T. kombiniert mit resorbierbaren Pins. Patienten und Methode: Zwischen 1996-1999 wurden fünf Patienten (vier Männer, eine Frau) mit einer Kombinationsverletzung von Radiuskopf und Capitulum humeri operativ stabilisiert. Das Durchschnittsalter beträgt 34 Jahre (31-40 Jahre). Alle Frakturen wurden über einen direkten radialen Zugang mittels 1.5mm oder 2.0mm Zugschrauben, zum Teil mit resorbierbaren Pins stabilisiert. Anschliessend wurden die Patienten radiologisch und klinisch gemäss dem Mayo-elbow-performance Score beurteilt. Resultate: Alle Patienten konnten persönlich durch einen nicht in die Initialtherapie involvierten Untersucher nach durchschnittlich 12.8 Monaten (8-24 Monate) nachuntersucht werden. 4/5 Patienten konnten bezüglich ihrer subjektiven Einschätzung befragt werden. Radiologische Zeichen einer Nekrose des Capitulum humeri oder Arthrosezeichen fanden sich nicht. Bei drei Patienten fanden sich periartikuläre Verkalkungen. Der range of motion beträgt durchschnittlich 124 Grad (Extension 5-30 Grad, Flexion 110-145 Grad) in drei von fünf Fällen waren Sekundäreingriffe zu Mobilitätsverbesserung nötig. Der Mayo-elbow-performance Score beträgt im Mittel 85 Punkte (range 70-100 Punkte). Schlussfolgerung: Die direkte Verschraubung mit Miniimplantaten zum Teil in Kombination mit resorbierbaren Pins ermöglicht eine stabile anatomische Rekonstruktion des Capitulum humeri durch den gleichen Zugang wie er für die Stabilisierung des Radiusköpfchens notwendig ist. Die transartikuläre Fixation der kleinen Schalenfragmente des Capitulum humeri erlaubt eine sichere interfragmentäre Kompression und damit eine frühfunktionelle Rehabilitation. Sekundäreingriffe zur Verbesserung der Gelenkbeweglichkeit waren in drei von fünf Fällen nötig.

AbstractDue to the risk of adverse reactions to metal debris resulting from increased wear of the arthroplasty more than one million metal-on-metal (MoM) hip replacements worldwide are in active follow-up. Follow-up usually includes measurement of both whole blood cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr) concentrations. Our experience is that Cr is seldom independently elevated. We wanted to ascertain whether blood Cr measurements could be omitted from follow-up protocols without lowering the quality of follow-up. We identified 8438 whole blood Co and Cr measurements performed without or prior to revision surgery. When the cut-off levels 5 µg/L and 7 µg/L were used, Cr was independently elevated in only 0.5% (95% confidence interval, CI, 0.3 to 0.6) and 0.2% (CI 0.1 to 0.3) of the measurements. The models with continuous variables showed that the higher the blood metal concentrations are the lower the percentage of measurements with Cr higher than Co. Our results suggest that whole blood Cr is very rarely independently elevated and therefore the authorities should consider omitting Cr measurements from their screening guidelines of MoM hip replacements. We believe this change in practice would simplify follow-up and lead to cost savings without decreasing the quality of follow-up.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of primary metal-on-metal total hip replacement (MoM-TR) converted to uncemented total hip replacement (UTR) or cemented total hip replacement (CTR) in patients with femoral neck fractures (AO/OTA: 31B/C). Methods Patient data of 234 UTR or CTR revisions after primary MoM-TR failure from March 2007 to January 2018 were retrospectively identified. Clinical outcomes, including the Harris hip score (HHS) and key orthopaedic complications, were collected at 3, 6, and 12 months following conversion and every 12 months thereafter. Results The mean follow-up was 84.12 (67–100) months for UTR and 84.23 (66–101) months for CTR. At the last follow-up, the HHS was better in the CTR- than UTR-treated patients. Noteworthy dissimilarities were correspondingly detected in the key orthopaedic complication rates (16.1% for CTR vs. 47.4% for UTR). Statistically significant differences in specific orthopaedic complications were also detected in the re-revision rate (10.3% for UTR vs. 2.5% for CTR), prosthesis loosening rate (16.3% for UTR vs. 5.9% for CTR), and periprosthetic fracture rate (12.0% for UTR vs. 4.2% for CTR). Conclusion In the setting of revision of failed primary MoM-TR, CTR may demonstrate advantages over UTR in improving functional outcomes and reducing key orthopaedic complications.

Background: Adverse reactions to metal debris are significant complications after metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. Recently, late appearances of adverse reactions to metal debris and subsequent need for reoperations have been reported with small-diameter head metal-on-metal devices. We retrospectively investigated mid-term clinical outcomes of small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. Methods: We reviewed 159 hips in 139 patients who had a small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (M2a Taper; Biomet, Warsaw, IN) with a minimum 5-year follow-up and documented postoperative complications. Results: Focal osteolysis in either the femur or acetabulum was observed in 12 hips (7.5%, 44 months after surgery on average), with pseudotumor observed in 8 hips (5%, 120 months after surgery on average). Four hips (2.5%) had dislocations (84 months after surgery on average) and six hips (3.8%, 122 months after surgery on average) underwent reoperation. Conclusion: Small-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty is associated with a high degree of complications at mid-term follow-up period. Considering this, we discourage the use of metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty regardless of head size.
