Medium Term Radiographic and Clinical Outcomes Using a Modular Tapered Hip Revision Implant.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The rate of revision hip arthroplasty surgery is rising. Surgeons must use implants with proven outcomes to help overcome the technical challenges faced during revision surgery. However, outcome studies using these implants are limited. The aim of this study is to investigate the radiographic and clinical outcomes of the Stryker Restoration stem, the most commonly used hip revision stem in the United Kingdom (UK).

Methods

A retrospective review of a single surgeon case series was performed. Immediate postoperative radiographs were analyzed for offset and leg length discrepancy. Radiographic evidence of subsidence was assessed using follow-up radiographs. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied using explantation and reoperation as endpoints. Patient-reported outcomes were measured using the Oxford Hip Score and EQ-5D-5L.

Results

One hundred ninety-eight cases were identified. Mean follow-up duration was 51.8 months (range: 24-121). Stem survival during this period was 98%. Reoperation for any reason was 13%. Mean subsidence was 4.18 mm. Analysis of variance testing showed no difference in mean subsidence between revision indications. Mean offset and leg length discrepancies were measured at 4.5 mm and 4.3 mm, respectively. The mean Oxford Hip Score for participants was 27.6.

Conclusions

This series demonstrates excellent implant survival, with radiographic parameters for reconstruction and subsidence levels comparable to those in the existing literature. The tapered modular hip revision stem provides surgeons with the intraoperative flexibility to overcome some of the anatomical difficulties encountered during revision surgery; this is reflected in the radiographic and clinical outcomes of the cohort in this study.

Project description:PurposeTo identify clinical and radiographic factors associated with failure of revision hip arthroscopy (RHA).MethodsA database was used to identify patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy and revision hip arthroscopy (RHA) from January 2007 to December 2017 for the indication of femoroacetabular impingement and failure of the index procedure, respectively. The primary outcome was defined as the change, or difference, in the preoperative to postoperative alpha angle between patients with successful RHA and those with failed RHA. Failure was defined as reoperation on the operative hip for any indication or a modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) of less than 70 at the 1-year postoperative time point. All patients had a minimum of 2 years' follow-up from the date of revision hip surgery. Patients with a history of revision were divided into those with failed revisions and those with successful revisions. The inclusion criteria for failed revision included a history of subsequent revision surgery (or arthroplasty) or an mHHS of less than 70 at final follow-up.ResultsThe study included 26 patients, comprising 8 (31%) with failed RHA and 18 (69%) with successful revision. The failure group showed a significantly smaller decrease in the alpha angle with surgery, measured on the Dunn view, compared with the success group. When the preoperative alpha angle was held constant, each 1° increase in the difference between the preoperative and postoperative alpha angles achieved during surgery was associated with a 17% decrease in the odds of failure. Patients included in the success group had both a higher preoperative mHHS (44.2 ± 8.6 vs 34.7 ± 9.6) and a higher postoperative mHHS (83.2 ± 8.3 vs 62.3 ± 14.2) than patients with failed RHA. There was a statistically significant difference in the frequency of patients who achieved the patient acceptable symptomatic state of +74.0 between the failure (25%) and success (83%) groups; 88% of patients in the failure group met the minimal clinically important difference, whereas 100% of patients in the success group (n = 18) met it.ConclusionsComplete resection of cam lesions as determined by changes in the alpha angle, anterior offset, and head-neck ratio when measured on the Dunn 45° view correlates with positive clinical outcomes after RHA.Level of evidenceIII, Retrospective Comparative Study.
