OBJECTIVEPatient-reported outcomes (PROs) are often measured up to 2 years after surgery; however, prospective collection of longitudinal outcomes for 5 years postoperatively can be challenging due to lack of patient follow-up. The aim of this study was to determine whether PROs collected at 2-year follow-up accurately predict long-term PROs 5 years after complex spinal fusion (≥ 5 levels).METHODSThis was an ambispective study of 118 adult patients (≥ 18 years old) undergoing ≥ 5-level spinal arthrodesis to the sacrum with iliac fixation from January 2002 to December 2011. Patient demographics and radiographic parameters as well as intraoperative variables were collected. PRO instruments (Scoliosis Research Society [SRS]-22r function, self-image, mental health, pain, and Oswestry Disability Index [ODI]) were completed before surgery then at 2 and 5 years after surgery. Primary outcome investigated in this study was the correlation between SRS-22r domains and ODI collected at 2- and 5-year follow-up.RESULTSOf the 118 patients, 111 patients had baseline PROs, 105 patients had 2-year follow-up data, and 91 patients had 5-year follow-up PRO data with 72% undergoing revision surgery. The average pre- and postoperative major coronal curve Cobb angles for the cohort were 32.1° ± 23.7° and 19.8° ± 19.3°, respectively. There was a strong correlation between 2- and 5-year ODI (r2 = 0.80, p < 0.001) and between 2- and 5-year SRS-22r domains, including function (r2 = 0.79, p < 0.001), self-image (r2 = 0.82, p < 0.001), mental health (r2 = 0.77, p < 0.001), and pain (r2 = 0.79, p < 0.001). Of the PROs, ODI showed the greatest absolute change from baseline to 2- and 5-year follow-up (2-year Δ 17.6 ± 15.9; 5-year Δ 16.5 ± 19.9) followed by SRS-22r self-image (2-year Δ 1.4 ± 0.96; 5-year Δ 1.3 ± 1.0), pain (2-year Δ 0.94 ± 0.97; 5-year Δ 0.80 ± 1.0), function (2-year Δ 0.60 ± 0.62; 5-year Δ 0.49 ± 0.79), and mental health (2-year Δ 0.49 ± 0.77; 5-year Δ 0.38 ± 0.84).CONCLUSIONSPatient-reported outcomes collected at 2-year follow-up may accurately predict long-term PROs (5-year follow-up).

ObjectivesRisk factors for anterior shoulder dislocation include young age, contact activities and male sex. The influence of sex on patient-reported outcomes of arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) is unclear, with few studies reporting potential differences. This study’s purpose was to compare patient-reported outcomes of males and females following ABR.MethodsProspectively collected data was analysed for 281 patients (males: 206, females: 75) after ABR with preoperative, 1-year and 2-year follow-up responses. The Wilcoxon signed-rank and χ2 tests, preoperative, 1 year and 2 year follow-up results were examined to determine differences of scores in males versus females.ResultsNo statistically significant sex differences were observed in Simple Shoulder Test (SST), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) or Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE) Scores at 1-year or 2-year follow-up. Females had lower Veterans RAND 12-item health survey (VR-12) mental health subscores at 2-year follow-up (females: 52.3±9.0, males: 55.8±7.6, p=0.0016). Females were more likely to report that treatment had ‘exceeded expectations’ at 2-year follow-up regarding motion, strength, function and normal sports activities.ConclusionResults of study demonstrate that ABR has similar outcomes for both males and females. There were no statistically significant sex-related differences in SST, ASES, VAS or SANE scores following ABR. VR-12 mental health subscores showed a minimal difference at 2-year follow-up, with lower scores in females.Level of evidenceRetrospective cohort study; level II.

Objectives: To evaluate long-term clinical outcomes after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with and without acromioplasty. Methods: Between 2007-2011, prospectively-enrolled patients undergoing arthroscopic repair for full-thickness rotator cuff tears were previously randomized into either acromioplasty or non-acromioplasty groups. Patients with death, advanced neurologic conditions, or subsequent shoulder arthroplasty were excluded. Baseline and long-term follow-up questionnaires, including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Simple Shoulder Test (SST), University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain, and Constant scores were obtained. Rates of revision rotator cuff surgery, or secondary reoperation were recorded. Averages with standard deviation (SD) were calculated, and t-tests were utilized to compare outcomes of interest between cohorts. Results: After exclusion of 5 additional patients from the short-term follow-up study, 66 of 90 patients (73.3%) were available at 92.4 months (±10.5). Comparison of baseline demographics and intraoperative information revealed no significant differences, including age, gender, workers compensation, acute mechanism of injury, tear size, degree of retraction, and surgical technique (e.g. single- vs. double-row). At final follow-up, there were no statistically significant differences according to ASES (p=0.33), VAS pain (p=0.79), Constant (p=0.17), SST (p=0.05), UCLA (p=0.19), and SF-12 (p=0.79) in patients with and without acromioplasty (Figure 1). One patient with acromioplasty (2.9%) and two patients without acromioplasty (6.3%) sustained atraumatic recurrent rotator cuff tear with secondary repair (p=0.99). Conclusion: Combined acromioplasty and rotator cuff repair offer no significant long-term benefits in patient-reported outcomes or secondary surgery when compared to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone.

Background: Radiographic tibiofemoral (TF) osteoarthritis (OA) is common in patients after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction at long-term follow-up. The association between radiographic OA and patient-reported outcomes has not been thoroughly investigated. Purpose: To determine the association between radiographic TF OA and patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) scores at 16 years after ACL reconstruction. Study Design: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: This study was based on 2 randomized controlled studies comprising 193 patients who underwent unilateral ACL reconstruction. A long-term follow-up was carried out at 16.4 ± 1.7 years after surgery and included a radiographic examination of the knee and recording of PROM scores. Correlation analyses were performed between radiographic OA (Kellgren-Lawrence [K-L], Ahlbäck, and cumulative Fairbank grades) and the PROMs of the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective knee form, Lysholm score, and Tegner activity scale. A linear univariable regression model was used to assess how the IKDC score differed with each grade of radiographic OA. Results: Of 193 patients at baseline, 147 attended the long-term follow-up. At long-term follow-up, 44.2% of the patients had a K-L grade of ≥2 in the injured leg, compared with 6.8% in the uninjured leg. The mean IKDC score at follow-up was 71.2 ± 19.9. Higher grades of radiographic OA were significantly correlated with lower IKDC and Lysholm scores ( r = –0.36 to –0.22). Patients with a K-L grade of 3 to 4 had significantly lower IKDC scores compared with patients without radiographic OA (K-L grade 0-1). Adjusted beta values were –15.7 (95% CI, –27.5 to –4.0; P = .0093; R 2 = 0.09) for K-L grade 3 and –25.2 (95% CI, –41.7 to –8.6; P = .0033; R 2 = 0.09) for K-L grade 4. Conclusion: There was a poor but significant correlation between radiographic TF OA and more knee-related limitations, as measured by the IKDC form and the Lysholm score. Patients with high grades of radiographic TF OA (K-L grade 3-4) had a statistically significant decrease in IKDC scores compared with patients without radiographic TF OA at 16 years after ACL reconstruction. No associations were found between radiographic TF OA and the Tegner activity level.

The Impact

Category: Ankle Introduction/Purpose: Poor pre-operative mental health and depression have been shown to negatively impact patient- reported outcomes (PROMs) after a broad array of orthopaedic procedures involving the spine, hip, knee, shoulder, and hand. However, the relationship of mental health and patient-reported outcomes in foot and ankle surgery is less clear. The purpose of this study is to characterize the impact of pre-operative mental health and depression on patient-reported outcomes after total ankle arthroplasty. The study hypothesis is that depression and decreased SF36 MCS will be significantly associated with diminished improvement in PROMs after total ankle arthroplasty. Methods: All patients undergoing primary TAA between January 2007 and December 2016 who were enrolled into a prospective, observational study and who had at least 1 to 2-year minimum study follow-up were included. Patients were separated into 4 groups based on the presence or absence of SF36 MCS<35 and diagnosis of depression. Pre-operative to post- operative change scores in the SF36 physical and mental component summary scores (PCS and MCS), Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment (SMFA) function and bother components, and visual analog scale (VAS) pain were calculated in 1 to 2-year follow-up. Multivariable, main effects linear regression models were constructed to evaluate the impact of SF36 and depression status on pre-operative to 1 to 2-year follow-up change scores with adjustment for age, sex, race, body mass index, current smoking, American Society of Anesthesiologist’s score, smoking, and Charlson-Deyo comorbidity score. Results: As in Table 1, adjusted analyses demonstrated that patients with MCS<35 and depression had significantly lower improvements in all change scores including SF36 MCS (-5.1 points) and PCS (-7.6 points), SMFA bother (6 points) and function scores (5.7 points), and VAS pain (7.5 points) compared with patients that had SF36>=35 and no depression. Patients with MCS<35 and no depression had significantly greater improvement in SF36 MCS (5.3 points) compared with patients that had MCS>=35 and no depression. Patients with MCS>=35 and depression had significantly lower improvement in SF36 MCS (-3.2 points) compared with patients that had MCS>=35 and no depression. Adjusted analyses of minimum 5-year outcomes demonstrated significantly increased improvement in MCS and SMFA function for patients with pre-operative MCS<35 and no depression. Conclusion: Presence of depression and decreased SF36 MCS are risk factors for diminished improvement in PROMs. Patients with depression and decreased MCS should be counseled about their risk of diminished improvement in outcomes compared to peers. As PROM’s become part of physician evaluations, it is becoming increasingly important to identify factors for diminished improvement outside of the physician’s control. [Table: see text]

Background Post-traumatic arthritis of the hip is a degenerative condition that commonly affects young patients. In this study, we evaluate long-term implant survival and patient-reported outcomes after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients aged 35 or younger with post-traumatic arthritis of the hip. Methods We conducted a retrospective study with follow-up. A chart review was performed to identify young patients with post-traumatic arthritis of the hip treated with primary THA. Follow-up surveys were conducted to determine implant survival and patient-reported outcomes. Implant survival was assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and patient outcomes were determined using the hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS). Results We studied 42 patient s (44 THAs) with a mean time to follow-up of 14 years. The 10-year implant survival rate was 87% and 20-year implant survival rate was 41%. Implant survival did not differ based on patient age, gender, implant type, bearing surface, or use of cement for implant fixation (p>0.05). The mean HOOS scores at follow-up were 87 for pain, 85 for symptoms, 89 for ADLs, and 76 for sports. HOOS scores were significantly worse in patients that had undergone revision THA (p<0.05). Conclusions Young patients with post-traumatic arthritis of the hip have good long-term outcomes after THA. However, revision THA is predictive of worse long-term outcomes.

Aims High-grade dysplastic spondylolisthesis is a disabling disorder for which many different operative techniques have been described. The aim of this study is to evaluate Scoliosis Research Society 22-item (SRS-22r) scores, global balance, and regional spino-pelvic alignment from two to 25 years after surgery for high-grade dysplastic spondylolisthesis using an all-posterior partial reduction, transfixation technique. Methods SRS-22r and full-spine lateral radiographs were collected for the 28 young patients (age 13.4 years (SD 2.6) who underwent surgery for high-grade dysplastic spondylolisthesis in our centre (Scottish National Spinal Deformity Service) between 1995 and 2018. The mean follow-up was nine years (2 to 25), and one patient was lost to follow-up. The standard surgical technique was an all-posterior, partial reduction, and S1 to L5 transfixation screw technique without direct decompression. Parameters for segmental (slip percentage, Dubousset’s lumbosacral angle) and regional alignment (pelvic tilt, sacral slope, L5 incidence, lumbar lordosis, and thoracic kyphosis) and global balance (T1 spino-pelvic inclination) were measured. SRS-22r scores were compared between patients with a balanced and unbalanced pelvis at final follow-up. Results SRS-22r domain and total scores improved significantly from preoperative to final follow-up, except for the mental health domain that remained the same. Slip percentage improved from 75% (SD 15) to 48% (SD 19) and lumbosacral angle from 70° (SD 11) to 101° (SD 11). Preoperatively, 35% had global imbalance, and at follow-up all were balanced. Preoperatively, 63% had an unbalanced pelvis, and at final follow-up this was 32%. SRS-22r scores were not different in patients with a balanced or unbalanced pelvis. However, postoperative pelvic imbalance as measured by L5 incidence was associated with lower SRS-22r self-image and total scores (p = 0.029). Conclusion In young patients with HGDS, partial reduction and transfixation improves local lumbosacral alignment, restores pelvic, and global balance and provides satisfactory long-term clinical outcomes. Higher SRS-22r self-image and total scores were observed in the patients that had a balanced pelvis (L5I < 60°) at two to 25 years follow-up. Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2021;2(3):163–173.

OBJECTIVE Achievement of minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) in the Scoliosis Research Society–22r (SRS-22r) subdomains represents surgical efficacy. However, whether achievements of MCIDs in SRS-22r domains are associated with long-term satisfaction in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) is unclear. This study aimed to elucidate factors affecting patient satisfaction after thoracopelvic corrective fusion surgery in patients with ASD. METHODS Data obtained in 187 patients with ASD who underwent extensive corrective fusion surgery from the thoracic spine to the pelvis between 2010 and 2017 and underwent follow-up for 2 years were retrospectively reviewed. The authors investigated the likelihood of achieving MCIDs in the function, pain, self-image, mental health, and subtotal domains 2 years after surgery. The following MCID values were used: function, 0.90; pain, 0.85; self-image, 1.05; mental health, 0.70; and subtotal, 1.05. Multivariate analysis was performed to evaluate factors associated with patient satisfaction 2 years after surgery. RESULTS The average satisfaction scores in the group that achieved MCID and the group that did not were as follows: 3.97 and 3.37 for function (p < 0.001), 3.66 and 3.51 for pain (p = 0.221), 3.84 and 3.06 for self-image (p < 0.001), 3.82 and 3.28 for mental health (p < 0.001), and 3.96 and 3.30 for subtotal (p < 0.001), respectively. Except for the pain domain, the group that achieved MCIDs showed greater satisfaction than the group that did not achieve MCIDs. On multivariate analysis, factors related to postoperative satisfaction were achievement of SRS-22r self-image (standardization coefficient 0.322, p < 0.001) and function (standardization coefficient 0.179, p = 0.026) MCIDs. Perioperative complications and revision surgery were not related to patient satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS Multivariate analysis demonstrated that achievement of MCIDs in SRS-22r self-image and function domains was significantly associated with postoperative satisfaction. Given that patients with poor preoperative health-related quality of life are more likely to achieve MCIDs in SRS-22r domains, surgeons should carefully consider whether to operate on patients with relatively good baseline health-related quality of life when making surgical decisions.

Poor Outcomes

Background and Aims: Adult spinal deformity surgery has increased with the aging population and modern surgical approaches, although it has high complication and reoperation rates. The permanence of radiographic correction, mechanical complications, predictive factors for poor patient-reported outcomes, and patient satisfaction were analyzed. Material and Methods: A total of 79 adult patients were retrospectively analyzed at baseline and 1–9 years after adult spinal deformity correction between 2007 and 2016. Patient-reported outcomes (Oswestry Disability Index, visual analog scale, and Scoliosis Research Society–30 scores), changes in radiographic alignment, indications for reoperation, predictors of poor outcomes according to the Oswestry Disability Index and Scoliosis Research Society–30 scores, and patient satisfaction with management were studied. Results: Oswestry Disability Index and visual analog scale scores (p = 0.001), radiographic correction of thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, and pelvic retroversion (p ⩽ 0.001) and sagittal vertical axis (p = 0.043) were significantly better at 4–5 years of follow-up than at baseline. The risk for the first reoperation owing to mechanical failure of instrumentation or bone was highest within the first year, at 13.9% (95% confidence interval = 8.0%–23.7%), and 29.8% (95% confidence interval = 19.4%–43.9%) at the 5-year follow-up. Oswestry Disability Index and Scoliosis Research Society–30 total scores had a good correlation (r = −0.78; 95% CI = −0.86 to –0.68; p < 0.001). Satisfaction with management was correlated with patient-reported outcomes. Male sex and depression (p = 0.021 and 0.018, respectively) predicted poor outcomes according to the Oswestry Disability Index and/or Scoliosis Research Society–30 score. Conclusion: The achieved significant radiographic correction was maintained 5 years postoperatively. Despite reoperations, patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes were good. Depression and male sex predicted poor clinical outcomes.
