Femoral shortening during hip arthroplasty through a modified lateral approach.

ABSTRACT:

Unlabelled

We describe a modification of the direct lateral approach to the hip that provides excellent femoral and acetabular exposure and an easy way to shorten the proximal femur and equalize leg length. The approach also is useful for lower extremity elongation while preserving muscle continuity and minimizing postoperative complications. The exact amount of shortening can be calculated and planned preoperatively and measured and corrected intraoperatively if necessary. It avoids the necessity for osteotomies of the trochanter and transverse cuts or detachment of abductor muscles.

Level of evidence

Level IV, therapeutic study.

Total hip arthroplasty with subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy for high hip dislocation.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) with subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy for high hip dislocation.MethodsIn this retrospective study, the results of 24 primary THAs with acetabular reconstruction and subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy in 21 patients with high hip dislocation were evaluated. The acetabula were reconstructed with cemented or uncemented cups and bone grafting. Transverse subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomies were applied and the osteotomy sites treated by bone grafting and cable fixation. Assessment was by Hip Harris scores and radiographic evaluation.ResultsThe mean follow-up time was 42 months (18-108 months), three cases being lost to follow-up 18-27 months postoperatively. The HHS improved from 47.5 ± 8.7 to 88.5 ± 3.1. The mean length of femoral segments removed was 2.5 ± 0.8 cm (range, 1.0-4.5 cm) and mean acetabular inclination 43° ± 5° (range, 31°-54°). Caudalization of the femoral head center was 3.2 ± 3.0 mm (range, -3 to 12 mm) and lateralization 4.0 ± 4.0 mm (range, -9 to 11 mm). Mean greater trochanter height relative to theoretical hip center was 5.2 ± 1.0 cm (range, 3.5-7.1 cm) preoperatively and 0.2 ± 0.6 cm (range, -0.9 to 1.2 cm) postoperatively. Intraoperative trochanteric fractures occurred in three cases and sciatic nerve palsy in one.ConclusionTHA with subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy is an effective technique for treating high hip dislocation. Its advantages include improvement in limb imbalance and decreased risk of sciatic nerve injury.

Comparison of transverse and modified subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy in total hip arthroplasty for developmental dysplasia of hip: a meta-analysis.

Project description:BackgroundSubtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy is a crucial procedure to prevent nerve injury in total hip arthroplasty for severe developmental dysplasia of the hip. Transverse osteotomy was first applied, and other modified methods have also been reported. Each has its own advantages and limitations, but no definitive conclusions regarding differences in outcomes have been reached to date.MethodsWe therefore performed a comprehensive meta-analysis to compare the outcomes of different approaches. 37 studies (795 hips) were included in the final analysis. Meta-analysis, subgroup analysis and meta-regression were performed.ResultsMeta-analysis and subgroup analysis showed no significant difference between transverse and modified method. This is further confirmed by meta-regression. Method of osteotomy was found to be not associated with nonunion rate (P = 0.472), as well as other post-operative outcomes including nerve palsy (P = 0.240), dislocation (P = 0.735), revision (P = 0.653) and Harris hip score improvement (P = 0.562). In addition, western countries (P = 0.010) and duration of follow-up more than 5 years (P = 0.014) were associated with higher revision rate.ConclusionsTransverse osteotomy and modified osteotomy appear to be equivalent in terms of nonunion, safety and efficacy. Transverse osteotomy may be recommended, due to its simplicity and convenience in adjusting the anteversion angle. Well-designed and large-sample-size randomized controlled trials are expected to confirm and update the findings of this analysis.

Femoral artery injury during total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:There are an increasing number of vascular complications after hip replacement, some of which can be life-threatening. However, there are few reports of lower limb ischemic symptoms after undergoing an otherwise uncomplicated classic total hip replacement. We report a patient with low weight who developed postoperative limb ischemia resulting from blood clots caused by insertion of a Hohmann retractor close to small anterior acetabular osteophytes. Ultrasonography and angiography revealed her symptoms to be the result of femoral artery intimal injury with lower extremity arterial thrombosis, which led to pain, numbness, and decreased skin temperature. The patient underwent timely percutaneous intervention with a femoral artery stent, which relieved her symptoms. The discussion reviews femoral artery injury during total hip arthroplasty.

Femoral oxygenation during hip resurfacing through the trochanteric flip approach.

Project description:Femoral neck fracture is one of the most common complications of hip resurfacing and considered by some to be related to reduced blood flow as a consequence of the surgical approach. We measured oxygen concentration during hip resurfacing through the trochanteric flip approach (n = 15 patients) and compared this approach with previous data for the posterior and anterolateral approaches. With the trochanteric flip the average femoral oxygenation decreased during the procedure to approximately 50% of that at the start, however it recovered to starting level by the end of the procedure. Preservation of oxygenation with the trochanteric flip was similar to that observed with the anterolateral approach, but with less variation during the procedure. Both of these approaches were superior in terms of oxygenation preservation to the posterior approach which resulted in a dramatic reduction in oxygenation.

Surgical hip dislocation through a modified direct lateral approach: real-time perfusion monitoring.

Project description:This study aimed to measure femoral head perfusion during hip resurfacing arthroplasty through a trochanter-sparing modified direct lateral approach. High-power laser Doppler probes were inserted into the femoral heads of 26 patients (26 hips, age range 35-70 years). Changes in blood flow were recorded (1) pre-capsulectomy (reference), (2) post-capsulectomy, and (3) following femoral head dislocation and reduction. There were no statistically significant changes in perfusion amplitudes post-capsulectomy and following femoral head dislocation and reduction (mean -10%, P = .134 and +27%, P = .166, respectively). Prolonged dislocation with the hip maximally flexed and externally rotated resulted in significantly decreased perfusion (mean -28%, P = .002). This study provides in vivo evidence that surgical hip dislocation is feasible using a modified direct lateral approach.

Increased Risk of Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Injury in Patients With Previous Hip Arthroscopy Who Underwent a Direct Anterior Approach Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the rates of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) injury in patients who underwent a direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) with and without previous hip arthroscopy.MethodsWe retrospectively investigated consecutive DAA THAs performed by a single surgeon. These cases were grouped into patients with and without a history of previous ipsilateral hip arthroscopy. LFCN sensation was assessed during the initial follow-up (6 weeks) and 1-year (or most recent) follow-up visits. The incidence and character of LFCN injury was compared between the 2 groups.ResultsIn total, 166 patients underwent a DAA THA with no previous hip arthroscopy, and 13 had a history of previous arthroscopy. Of the 179 total patients who underwent THA, 77 experienced some form of LFCN injury at initial follow-up (43%). The rate of injury for the cohort with no previous arthroscopy was 39% (n = 65/166) on initial follow-up, whereas the rate of injury for the cohort with a history of previous ipsilateral arthroscopy was 92% (n =12/13) on initial follow-up (P < .001). In addition, although the difference was not significant, 28% (n = 46/166) of the group without history of previous arthroscopy and 69% (n = 9/13) of the group with a history of previous arthroscopy had continued symptoms of LFCN injury at most recent follow-up.ConclusionsIn this study, patients who underwent hip arthroscopy before an ipsilateral DAA THA were at increased risk of LFCN injury compared with patients who underwent a DAA THA without a previous hip arthroscopy. At final follow-up of patients with initial LFCN injury, symptoms resolved in 29% (n = 19/65) of patients with no previous hip arthroscopy and 25% (n = 3/12) of patients with previous hip arthroscopy.Level of evidenceLevel III, case-control study.

Algorithmic soft tissue femoral release in anterior approach total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:Although the anterior approach for total hip arthroplasty has gained increasing utilization, some studies have suggested a higher risk of femoral complications, as well as difficulty with femoral exposure. Techniques of soft tissue releases have been described to offer better femoral exposure, and to help mitigate complications. The purpose of the study is to describe an algorithmic soft tissue femoral release in direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty and to assess the clinical outcomes of patients upon which this algorithm of femoral soft tissue releases was utilized. Clinical outcomes with the Harris Hip Score, reoperation rates, component survivorship, and complications were analyzed.
