Successful reimplantation surgery after extraction of well-fixed cementless stems by femoral longitudinal split procedure.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Well-fixed cementless stems sometimes need to be extracted in patients with complications including periprosthetic infection, stem-neck breakage, or trunnionosis. The purpose of this study was to report the clinical outcome in patients undergoing reimplantation surgery after removal of a well-fixed porous-coated cementless stem by the femoral longitudinal split (FLS) procedure.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective study and radiographic review of 16 patients who had undergone reimplantation following the FLS procedure to remove a well-fixed stem due to periprosthetic infection, stem-neck breakage, or trunnionosis. The study group consisted of 2 men and 14 women with an average age of 68.4 years. Mean follow-up was 44.6 months. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate the longevity of the stem.

Results

The average operation time was 272 ± 63 minutes and intraoperative bleeding was 420 ± 170 mL. Although postoperative dislocation occurred in 5 hips and subsidence of the stem was found in 2 hips after surgery, no progressive subsidence was observed and the clinical JOA and JHEQ scores were both improved after reimplantation surgery. Reimplantation surgery with Zweymüller-type stems revealed evidence of osseointegration of the stem without femoral fracture. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of stem revision for any reason as the end point revealed 70.0% survival at 9 years.

Conclusions

In this study, we experienced some complications in patients with trunnionosis or periprosthetic infections. However, the FLS procedure is expected to confer successful clinical results without loosening of the reimplanted cementless stem, after safe extraction of well-fixed porous-coated cementless stems without fracture.

Project description:Background and purpose - Short-term experimental studies have confirmed that there is superior fixation of cementless implants inserted with compaction compared to broaching of the cancellous bone. Patients and methods - 1-stage, bilateral primary THA was performed in 28 patients between May 2001 and September 2007. The patients were randomized to femoral bone preparation with broaching on 1 side and compaction on the other side. 8 patients declined to attend the postoperative follow-up, leaving 20 patients (13 male) with a mean age of 58 (36-70) years for evaluation. The patients were followed with radiostereometric analysis (RSA) at baseline, at 6 and 12 weeks, and at 1, 2, and 5 years, and measurements of periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) at baseline and at 1, 2, and 5 years. The subjective part of the Harris hip score (HHS) and details of complications throughout the observation period were obtained at a mean interval of 6.3 (3.0-9.5) years after surgery. Results - Femoral stems in the compaction group had a higher degree of medio-lateral migration (0.21 mm, 95% CI: 0.03-0.40) than femoral stems in the broaching group at 5 years (p = 0.02). No other significant differences in translations or rotations were found between the 2 surgical techniques at 2 years (p > 0.4) and 5 years (p > 0.7) postoperatively. There were no individual stems with continuous migration. Periprosthetic BMD in the 7 Gruen zones was similar at 2 years and at 5 years. Intraoperative femoral fractures occurred in 2 of 20 compacted hips, but there were none in the 20 broached hips. The HHS and dislocations were similar in the 2 groups at 6.3 (3.0-9.5) years after surgery. Interpretation - Bone compaction as a surgical technique with the Bi-Metric stem did not show the superior outcomes expected compared to conventional broaching. Furthermore, 2 periprosthetic fractures occurred using the compaction technique, so we cannot recommend compaction for insertion of the cementless Bi-Metric stem.

Project description:Background A bioprosthesis- or mechanical-prosthesis-containing polyester graft (composite graft) is standard surgical management for aortic root aneurysms (Bentall procedure), but particularly in the young patient in whom a bioprosthesis is likely to deteriorate and a mechanical prosthesis mandates life-long anticoagulation, valve-sparing procedures have been devised. One such procedure involves reimplantation of the native aortic valve in the polyester graft. With focus on selecting the optimum procedure for young relatively asymptomatic patients, we compared outcomes of reimplantation of the aortic valve versus the Bentall procedure and identified factors influencing outcomes.Methods From January 2000 to January 2017, 643 adults age ≤ 70 with tricuspid aortic valves underwent elective aortic root replacement with either reimplantation (n = 448/70%) or a composite valve graft (Bentall) procedure (n = 195/30%). Outcomes were compared in 100 propensity-matched pairs.Results Patients with fewer symptoms, less aortic regurgitation (AR), higher left ventricular ejection fraction, and smaller cross-sectional aortic area/height ratio had a higher likelihood of valve repair with reimplantation (all p < 0.02) versus receiving a Bentall procedure. Operative mortality was 0.16% (reimplantation, 1/448, 0.22%; Bentall 0/195, 0%). After reimplantation, 8-year freedom from severe AR was 95% and 10-year freedom from reintervention was 98%. Ten-year survival was 95%. Higher preoperative AR grade (p < 0.0001) but not larger root diameter (p = 0.3) was associated with higher grade of late regurgitation after a reimplantation procedure. Among propensity-matched patients, reimplantation compared with a Bentall was associated with similar 10-year survival (89% vs. 94%), but more late AR (8-year freedom from severe AR: 93% vs. 99.9%) and greater early reduction in, but similar late, left ventricular mass (104 vs. 105 g•m-2 at 8 years).Conclusion Excellent aortic valve reimplantation results versus Bentall lead us to recommend reimplantation more often in patients who present with even moderately severe or severe AR and significantly enlarged aortic roots.
