A case of bone necrosis with pseudotumor following metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT: A case of bone necrosis with a pseudotumor following metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty is presented. The patient showed no abnormal magnetic resonance findings 2 years postoperatively, but serum metal ion levels were elevated. The patient developed hip pain 3.5 years postoperatively, and bone necrosis with a pseudotumor was found. The present patient emphasized the fact that tissue necrosis associated with failed metal-on-metal bearing hip might not be limited to soft tissues, but bone necrosis could occur.

Pseudotumor in ceramic-on-metal total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:The increasing demand for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in relatively young, high-demand patients has led to the use of hard-on-hard bearing surfaces. Adverse local tissue reaction/pseudotumor and elevated serum metal ion levels are commonly reported complications encountered in metal-on-metal THA, while audible articulation and rim fracture are reported in ceramic-on-ceramic THA. For this reason, ceramic-on-metal THA was implemented as an ideal hard-on-hard bearing combination. In this report, we describe a case of bilateral simultaneous ceramic-on-metal THA in a 69-year-old woman who presented 7 years postoperatively with unilateral hip pain associated with underlying pseudotumor and elevated serum cobalt and chromium ion levels. Pre-revision workup, intraoperative findings, and postoperative evaluation are included and suggest acetabular malposition as a potential source for complication.

Inflammatory pseudotumor after ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:We present a unique case of a symptomatic adverse local tissue reaction in a patient with a ceramic-on-ceramic total hip bearing surface. To our knowledge, this pathological finding has not yet been described in a ceramic-on-ceramic articulation without a cobalt-chromium alloy trunnion or modular neck component as a source of metal wear. We conclude that despite its mechanical mostly benign wear characteristics, ceramic wear debris is not entirely inert and may lead to the development of adverse local tissue reaction.

Do Polyethylene Supra-Macroparticles Lead to Pseudotumor Formation in Metal-on-Polyethylene Total Hip Arthroplasty?

Project description:We describe 2 cases of pseudotumors induced by an unusual size of polyethylene wear particle after metal-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasty (MoP THA). The supra-macroparticles of size >100 μm originated from a polyethylene liner with relatively small cup anteversion, potentially leading to excessive loading and increased wear of the anterior edge of the polyethylene liner. Histopathology showed a foreign-body reaction to the polyethylene particles without an adverse reaction to metal debris and with no severe signs of corrosion at the head-neck junction, which have been noted in past reports of pseudotumors in MoP THA. It has been suggested that the large polyethylene wear particles might be the cause of pseudotumor formation in MoP THA.

A Case of Titanium Pseudotumor and Systemic Toxicity After Total Hip Arthroplasty Polyethylene Failure.

Project description:We describe the case of a 57-year-old female who underwent bilateral ceramic-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasties performed in 2015. She presented to us in 2018 with headaches, fatigue, and right hip pain 5 months after an atraumatic right polyethylene liner failure for which she did not seek treatment. She was found to have imaging consistent with an adverse local tissue reaction and massive pseudotumor formation. During revision surgery, fracture of the acetabular liner was noted, with ceramic head wear through the titanium cup. In the months after her debridement and prosthesis revision, the patient continued to complain of systemic symptoms including weakness, fatigue, headaches, and vision problems. Serum titanium levels were found to be 100 times higher than normal. This case serves as a rarely reported example of titanium toxicity and titanium pseudotumor formation in the setting of polyethylene failure.

Growth of an intrapelvic pseudotumor associated with a metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty after revision arthroplasty causing a femoral nerve neuropathy.

Project description:The development of pseudotumors is not uncommon with metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty. Pseudotumors that dissect into the retroperitoneal space can cause symptoms of nerve compression. We describe a case of a 53-year-old male with a metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty who developed mild symptoms of a femoral nerve neuropathy 6 years postoperatively. Revision arthroplasty to a ceramic-on-polyethylene articulation and debridement of the pseudotumor was performed. Postoperatively, the patient's femoral neuropathy progressed and a repeat magnetic resonance imaging showed an increase in size of the pseudotumor despite the removal of the offending metal-on-metal articulation. The patient subsequently underwent a laparoscopic excision of the retroperitoneal pseudotumor. By 17 months post laparoscopic excision of the pseudotumor, the patient's motor deficits resolved, however, sensory deficits persisted in the anteromedial thigh.

Extensive skin necrosis following total hip arthroplasty performed through the direct anterior approach.

Project description:BackgroundTotal hip arthroplasty is a widely performed surgical procedure, which enables patients to regain mobility, alleviates pain, and improves overall quality of life. Periarticular multimodal drug infiltration (PAI) is increasingly being used as an effective postoperative pain management, decreasing the systemic consumption of opioids. Extensive postoperative skin necrosis without a deep joint infection as a complication of total hip arthroplasty with PAI has not yet been described.Case presentationA 71-year-old patient who underwent total hip arthroplasty of the right hip for primary osteoarthritis through the Direct Anterior Approach presented postoperatively a large area of necrotic skin at the incision. Joint infection was excluded. An extensive debridement was performed and the tissue defect was reconstructed by a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap. The skin maintained a satisfactory appearance at 1 year postoperatively, and the hip was pain-free with restored ranges of motion. The patient was able to walk with no support and without limitation.ConclusionWe address the possible risk factors, discuss the use of epinephrine in PAI and explore possible treatment options for such a complication.

Revision total hip arthroplasty for metal-on-metal failure.

Project description:Metal-on-metal (MoM) arthroplasty systems became popular in the early-2000s due to presumed advantages of improved wear characteristics and superior stability. However, subsequent reports of abnormal soft-tissue reactions to MoM implants and national registry data reporting high failure rates raised concerns. Early outcomes of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) for adverse reaction to metal debris (ARMD) were poor, leading to development of surveillance programs and a trend towards early revision surgery. Patients with MoM arthroplasties require surveillance, comprehensive history and physical examination, imaging with ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and laboratory evaluation including metal ion levels. Operative strategies for revision THA vary from exchange of modular components to extensive debridement and reconstruction with revision components. Surgeons should be aware of the increased risks of dislocation and infection following revision THA for ARMD. However, there is growing evidence that early revision surgery prior to extensive soft tissue destruction results in improved outcomes and decreased re-operation rates. It is estimated that >1 million MoM articulations have been implanted, with a large proportion still in situ. It is imperative to understand the aetiology, presentation, and management strategies for these patients to optimise their clinical outcomes.

Severe Wear and multiple Pseudotumor formation due to revision for ceramic head breakage after ceramic-on-ceramic Total hip arthroplasty: a case report.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Head breakage is a serious complication following total hip arthroplasty when using Ceramic on Ceramic bearings surfaces. There is still in controversy about the selection of bearing surfaces when conducting revision surgery. CASE PRESENTATION:We describe the case of a fifty-year-old man who had undergone right total hip arthroplasty (THA) with ceramic-on-ceramic prostheses in 2011. After a fall 6 years after the primary procedures, radiographs suggested a ceramic head breakage for revision THA with exchange of metal-on-polyethylene bearing. However, 8 months later, severe metallosis and multiple pseudotumor was confirmed in pelvis and surrounding hip after re-revision THA with ceramic-on-polyethylene prostheses. Analysis of the serum metal ion indicated massive wear of the metal head and erosion of the stem neck and taper. CONCLUSIONS:This case vividly demonstrates metal bearings should be avoided and revision with complete synovectomy and thorough debridement should be performed whenever possible for a fractured ceramic bearing.

Patient-Reported Outcomes After Revision of Metal-on-Metal Total Bearings in Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundFailure of metal-on-metal (MOM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) bearings is often accompanied by an aggressive local reaction associated with destruction of bone, muscle, and other soft tissues around the hip. Little is known about whether patient-reported physical and mental function following revision THA in MOM patients is compromised by this soft tissue damage, and whether revision of MOM THA is comparable with revision of hard-on-soft bearings such as metal-on-polyethylene (MOP).MethodsWe identified 75 first-time MOM THA revisions and compared them with 104 first-time MOP revisions. Using prospective patient-reported measures via the Veterans RAND-12, we compared Physical Component Score and Mental Component Score function at preoperative baseline and postoperative follow-up between revision MOM THA and revision MOP THA.ResultsPhysical Component Score did not vary between the groups preoperatively and at 1 month, 3 months, and 1 year postoperatively. Mental Component Score preoperatively and 1 and 3 months postoperatively were lower in patients in the MOM cohort compared with patients with MOP revisions (baseline: 43.7 vs 51.3, P < .001; 1 month: 44.9 vs 53.3, P < .001; 3 months: 46.0 vs 52.3, P = .016). However, by 1 year, MCS scores were not significantly different between the revision cohorts.ConclusionPostrevision physical function in revised MOM THA patients does not differ significantly from the outcomes of revised MOP THA. Mental function is markedly lower in MOM patients at baseline and early in the postoperative period, but does not differ from MOP patients at 1 year after revision. This information should be useful to surgeons and physicians facing MOM THA revision.

The Role of Metal-on-Metal Bearings in Total Hip Arthroplasty and Hip Resurfacing: Review Article.

Project description:BackgroundThe current role of metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings in hip arthroplasty remains controversial. The low wear offered by MoM bearings compared to metal-on-polyethylene and the possibility of a lower risk of dislocation with larger head sizes, encouraged a trend towards the re-introduction of the MoM bearing couple. However, recent evidence has shown that not all designs of the MoM bearing have been successful.Questions/purposesThe purpose of this paper is to provide an update on the use of MoM bearings and address the following issues: (1) the reintroduction of metal-on-metal bearings in total hip arthroplasty, (2) the failure of metal-on-metal bearings in stemmed total hip arthroplasty, (3) the role of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing in modern orthopaedics and (4) metal-on-metal hip resurfacing versus total hip arthroplasty.MethodsA literature search strategy was conducted using various search terms in MEDLINE and Embase. The highest quality articles that met the inclusion criteria and best answered the topics of focus of this review were selected. Key search terms included 'metal-on-metal', 'total hip arthroplasty' and 'hip resurfacing'.ResultsThe initial search retrieved 1240 articles. Twenty-two articles were selected and used in the review.ConclusionMetal-on-metal hip resurfacing is still a suitable treatment option in specific patient populations with the appropriate implant design and surgical skill, while stemmed metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty should be avoided in all patient populations. Continued follow-up of patients undergoing metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is critical in order to further understand the long-term outcomes of these patients and why certain complications tend to occur with this procedure.
