This chapter contains practice questions based on a broad range of orthopaedic topics that may be encountered within the ‘Adult Pathology’ station of the FRCS (Trauma and Orthopaedics) viva examination. The hip topics covered include: osteoarthritis, total hip replacement, avascular necrosis, hip arthrodesis, hip dislocation, and heterotopic ossification as well as other conditions.

Objective Artificial hip dislocation is one of the most serious complications following total hip replacement. This study was performed to assess articular capsule repair in primary total hip replacement with the anterolateral approach (Watson-Jones incision) and its effect on postoperative dislocation. Methods Patients who underwent primary total hip replacement by the anterolateral approach in Tongren Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2007 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the repair and dissection groups based on the articular capsule repair status during surgery. Postoperative dislocation rates were compared between the two groups using the chi-squared test. Results The repair and dissection groups comprised 137 and 248 patients, respectively. All patients were followed up for 6 months to 5 years (average, 3.75 years). The mean age, sex, disease composition, and follow-up time were not significantly different between the two groups. Early postoperative dislocation occurred in 1 hip (0.7%) in the repair group and 13 hips (5.2%) in the dissection group. Conclusions During the anterolateral approach for primary total hip replacement, articular capsule repair may reduce the occurrence of early postoperative dislocation of the hip joint.

Purpose: the purpose of the present paper is to present the short-term results of a “detachment-free” (DF) anterolateral approach for primary total hip replacement (THR) performed in a large series of patients. Methods: two hundred patients submitted to primary THR were retrospectively reviewed for the present study. In all cases, the surgery was performed using a minimally invasive DF anterolateral approach, which entails no disconnection of tendons and no muscle damage. The study population consisted of 96 men (48%) and 104 women (52%), with an average age of 69.4 years (range 38-75). Clinical and radiographic follow-up was performed after 12 months. Results: the clinical results, evaluated using the Harris Hip Score, were excellent in 95% of the cases and good in 5%; no cases had fair or poor results. X-rays taken at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery did not show heterotopic ossification, mobilization of the prosthetic components, or hip dislocation. No infections, deep vein thrombosis, or failure of the gluteal muscles were reported. Conclusions: the DF anterolateral approach for THR proved safe and provided effective results at shortterm follow-up. Level of evidence: Level IV, therapeutic case series.

<p><strong>Background: </strong>Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a major concern, because it is reported to range from 1% to 5%. The concept of dual mobility articulation was developed in 1970 by Bousquet to decrease dislocation risk. Several studies have looked at the outcome of dual mobility articulation in primary THA and in revision THA.<strong></strong></p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This is a prospective study of 33 patients undergoing dual mobility THA during 24 months period from October 2017 to September 2019. Patients undergoing total hip replacement (THR) to have dual mobility cup (DMC) were those at high risk of dislocation. Patients were followed up for a mean period of 18 months.<strong></strong></p><p><strong>Results: </strong>33 patients (mean age 67 years) underwent DMC THA. 27 patients underwent primary hip replacement. The follow-up of our cases has ranged from 13 months to 3 years with a mean follow-up of 18 months. none of the patients had hip dislocation.</p><p><strong>Conclusions</strong>: The DMC is an effective solution for the management of high-risk cases undergoing total hip replacement to reduce the incidence of postoperative instability.</p>

Neglected traumatic dislocations of the hip is one of disabling condition in lower extremity which are seldom found in adults. However, in developing countries, neglected-unreduced traumatic dislocations are not uncommon. Total hip replacement (THR) still remains a recommendation for the treatment of neglected hip dislocation which occurs more than 3 months. A 45- years-old female came to the outpatient clinic complaining pain on her right hip with history of trauma 30 years before, but instead of seeking medical treatment, she went to bonesetter instead. On physical examination, there is 5 cm leg length discrepancy, and the patient walked with limping gait. Conventional x-ray confirmed persistent dislocation of the right hip. A soft tissue release procedure and femoral neck osteotomy with skeletal traction was done before, followed by delayed THR two months after. The patient’s functional status was improved, and the HHS score increased from 48 to 87. The patient had no pain or significant complaints, except for a finding of mild residual Trendelenburg gait.
