Gluteus maximus transfer and mass graft (Capsulorraphy) in recurrent hip dislocation with the history of total hip replacement: A case series.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Introduction
Post THR dislocation has been a significant complication that interferes with the patient's life. Detection of risk factors, careful planning, proper operative procedures, and patient education is essential to prevent the incidence of dislocation. Several operative measures have been studied to achieve this, including the use of mesh for soft tissue procedures and capsulorraphy.Case presentation
A total of four patients is included in this case series. Two had a history of trauma that contributes to the necessity of the procedure while the other two had degenerative joint issues. All were operated by soft tissue procedure of gluteus maximus transfer as an abductor replacement and along with capsule augmentation using synthetic mesh as a synthetic capsule to strengthen and provide more stability.Discussion
The abductor strength from this gluteus maximus procedure is sufficient to stabilize the pelvis and prevent pelvic sag. The primary material of the mesh should produce inflammatory reaction so that a fibro capsular structure is formed surrounding the hip joint to add stability.Conclusion
The use of mesh in soft tissue procedures, such as capsulorraphy, with the addition gluteus maximus transfer may assist to prevent (re)dislocations of the hip. However, further study should be conducted to validate the routine use of mesh and gluteus maximus transfer to prevent dislocation after the procedure.

Project description:BackgroundSurgical treatment options for addressing recurrent dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) vary. Identifying impingement mechanisms in an unstable THA may be beneficial in determining appropriate treatment.Questions/purposesWe sought to assess the effectiveness of developing pre-operative plans for treating hip instability after THA. We used advanced imaging and three-dimensional modeling techniques to perform impingement analyses in patients with unstable THA.MethodsWe evaluated a series of eight patients who would require revision THA to treat recurrent dislocation. Using a pre-operative algorithmic approach, we built patient-specific models and evaluated hip range of motion with computed tomographic scanning and biplanar radiography. This information was used to determine a surgical treatment plan that was then executed intra-operatively. Patients were followed for 2 years to determine whether they experienced another hip dislocation following treatment.ResultsPre-operative kinematic modeling showed four of the eight patients had limited hip range of motion during flexion and internal rotation; a prominent anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) was found to limit hip range of motion in some of these cases. In the other four patients, range of motion was acceptable, suggesting soft-tissue causes of dislocation. No patients in this series experienced dislocation after undergoing revision THA.ConclusionAdvanced modeling techniques may be useful for identifying the impingement mechanisms responsible for instability after THA. Once variables contributing to limited hip range of motion are identified, surgeons can develop treatment plans to improve patient outcomes. Resecting a hypertrophic AIIS may improve hip range of motion and may be an important consideration for hip surgeons when revising unstable THAs.

Project description:Although the relationship between low back pain (LBP) and the size of certain trunk muscles has been extensively studied, the relationship between gluteus maximus (GM) size and LBP has been only minimally examined. Determining whether such a relationship exists would help improve our understanding of the etiology of LBP, and possibly provide a rationale for the use of therapeutic exercise interventions targeting GM with LBP patients. The objective of this study was to compare gluteus maximus cross-sectional area in individuals with chronic LBP, and in a group of individuals without LBP. Our hypothesis was that individuals with LBP would have greater atrophy in their gluteus maximus muscles than our control group.For this case-control study, we analyzed medical history and pelvic computed tomography (CT) scans for 36 female patients with a history of chronic LBP, and 32 female patients without a history of LBP. Muscle cross-sectional area of gluteus maximus was measured from axial CT scans using OsiriX MD software, then was normalized to patient height, and used to compare the two groups. The number of back pain-related medical visits was also correlated with gluteus maximus cross-sectional area.Mean normalized cross-sectional area was significantly smaller in the LBP group than in the control group, with t = 2.439 and P<0.05. The number of back pain-related visits was found to be significantly correlated with normalized cross-sectional area, with r = -0.270 and P<0.05. The atrophy seen in the present research may reflect incidental disuse atrophy seen with LBP, which is present in many muscle groups after prolonged immobilization or with a sedentary lifestyle.This research demonstrated a previously only minimally explored relationship between gluteus maximus cross-sectional area and LBP in women. Further research is indicated in individuals with varying age, sex, and LBP diagnoses.

Project description:Complete avulsion of hip abductor muscles may cause severe gait dysfunction and pain. An open surgical procedure to transfer tendons of the gluteus maximus and the tensor fasciae latae to the greater trochanter to make up for the deficient hip abductor has been proposed. The purpose of this study was to describe an endoscopic procedure to transfer gluteus maximus and the tensor fasciae latae to the greater trochanter for hip abductor deficiency.

Project description:BackgroundDislocation following total hip replacement (THR) is associated with repeated hospitalisations and substantial costs to the health system. Factors influencing dislocation following primary THR are not well understood. We aimed to assess the associations of patient-, surgery-, implant- and hospital-related factors with dislocation risk following primary THR.MethodsWe did a systematic review and meta-analysis of all longitudinal studies reporting these associations. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library to March 8, 2019. Summary measures of association were calculated using relative risks (RRs) (with 95% confidence intervals, CIs). The review is registered on PROSPERO, number CRD42019121378.FindingsWe identified 149 articles based on 125 unique studies with data on 4 633 935 primary THRs and 35 264 dislocations. The incidence rates of dislocation ranged from 0·12% to 16·13%, with an overall pooled rate of 2·10% (1·83-2·38) over a weighted mean follow-up duration of 6 years. Using median year of data collection, there was a significant decline in dislocation rates from 1971 to 2015. Comparing males vs females, age ≥70 vs <70 years, and high vs low income, RRs (95% CIs) for dislocation were 0·97 (0·88-1·08), 1·27 (1·02-1·57), and 0·79 (0·74-0·85) respectively. White ethnicity, drug use disorder, and social deprivation were each associated with an increased dislocation risk. Comparing body mass index (BMI) ≥30 vs. <30 kg/m2, the RR (95% CI) for dislocation was 1·38 (1·03-1·85). Medical and surgical history-related factors associated with dislocation risk included neurological disorder, psychiatric disease, comorbidity indices, previous surgery including spinal fusion, and surgical indications including avascular necrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory arthritis, and osteonecrosis. Surgical factors such as the anterolateral, direct anterior, or lateral approach and posterior with short external rotator and capsule repair were each associated with reduced dislocation risk. At the implant level, larger femoral head diameters, elevated acetabular liners, dual mobility cups, cemented fixations and standard femoral neck lengths reduced the risk of dislocation. Hospital-related factors such as experienced surgeons and high surgeon procedure volume each reduced the risk of dislocation.InterpretationDislocation following primary THR is on a temporal decline. Surgical approaches that reduce dislocation risk can be used by clinicians when performing primary THR. Alternative bearings such as dual mobility can be used in individuals at high risk of dislocation. Modifiable risk factors such as high BMI and comorbidities may be amenable to optimisation prior to surgery.FundingNational Institute for Health Research.

Project description:The present study was undertaken to identify the factors responsible for hip joint dislocation after total hip arthroplasty, laying emphasis on analysis of the background variables of the patients. Of the 317 hips included in the study, ten (3.2%) dislocated. Only the anteversion angle of the cup differed significantly between the dislocation group and the dislocation-free group. The safe zone of the anteversion angle seems to be between 20 and 30 degrees. but it is also essential to set the antetorsion angle of the stem to match the shape of individual bones to create a more stable hip joint. This safe zone may be expanded by the additive effect of antetorsion angle of the stem.

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.

Project description:Yoga has become a popular form of exercise, recreation, and meditation for adults in the United States. As the popularity of both yoga and the incidence of hip replacements have both coincidentally increased over the last 2 decades, we imagine that the number of total hip replacement patients partaking in the practice of yoga has also increased. There are no clear guidelines available for yoga practice following hip replacement. To date, there have been no published reports of prosthetic hip dislocations during yoga. We present 2 cases of late total hip dislocations during yoga and provide a review of the available orthopaedic literature and our recommendations on patient restrictions and education with respect to practicing yoga after a hip replacement.

Project description:Total hip replacement (THR) is a surgical procedure indicated for patients affected by severe hip osteoarthritis. Although this technique has proved to be effective in relieving pain and restoring function, gait limitations may persist following this procedure. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate gait kinematics after THR and compare the results with those of the pre-operative state and with healthy control individuals. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL and Scopus databases were searched until December 2019. Methodological quality and internal validity score of each study were assessed using the PEDro and the Newcastle-Ottawa scales. In all, ten studies met our inclusion criteria. Following THR, statistically significant improvements were seen in dynamic hip and knee range of motion of both the affected and the contralateral limb, single-limb support time symmetry, step length, stride length, walking speed and gait pattern. However, deficits were observed in all the previous parameters, as well as in hip adduction angle in comparison with healthy subjects. In conclusion, gait patterns improve after THR in comparison with the pre-operative state, although there are deficits relative to healthy individuals.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Sport rehabilitation is a reimbursable intervention assisting reintegration and self-help. In this study, we measured the effects of sport rehabilitation on muscle strength around the hip joint at 1 year after surgery, as well as cardiopulmonary endurance performance and stability of stance, in patients who had undergone a first implantation of a total hip endoprosthesis (total hip replacement, THR) as a treatment for osteoarthritis of the hip. METHODS:160 patients were randomly allotted either to an intervention group with intensive sport rehabilitation for the first year or to a control group. At three time points (baseline, six and twelve months after surgery), measurements were made of muscular strength around the hip joint (with isokinetic dynamometry), stability of stance, and endurance performance. The primary endpoint was the change in strength of the hip extensors, abductors, flexors, and adductors at twelve months after surgery. RESULTS:With respect to the primary endpoint, the results were not significantly better in patients who had received sport rehabilitation than in those who had not. At one year, the patients in the intervention group had less pain as measured by the WOMAC pain score (p = 0.023), though the size of this effect was small (r = 0.27). Health-related quality of life was higher in the intervention group at six months, albeit with a small effect size (p = 0.036, r = 0.25); this was no longer demonstrable at one year. The other parameters studied displayed no significant changes. CONCLUSION:This trial did not demonstrate any significant benefit of sports rehabilitation on functional outcomes in patients who had undergone total hip replacement. Nonetheless, positive trends after the intervention were seen in some parameters. The unexpectedly high dropout rate had been underestimated in the planning phase of the trial; further trials with larger numbers of patients should be performed.

Project description:BackgroundMany risk factors have been described for dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA), yet a patient-specific risk assessment tool remains elusive. The purpose of this study was to develop a high-dimensional, patient-specific risk-stratification nomogram that allows dynamic risk modification based on operative decisions.MethodsIn this study, 29,349 THAs, including 21,978 primary and 7371 revision cases, performed between 1998 and 2018 were evaluated. During a mean 6-year follow-up, 1521 THAs were followed by a dislocation. Patients were characterized, through individual-chart review, according to non-modifiable factors (demographics, indication for THA, spine disease, prior spine surgery, and neurologic disease) and modifiable operative decisions (operative approach, femoral head diameter, and type of acetabular liner [standard, elevated, constrained, or dual-mobility]). Multivariable regression models and nomograms were developed with dislocation as a binary outcome at 1 year and 5 years postoperatively.ResultsDislocation risk, based on patient-specific comorbidities and operative decisions, was wide-ranging-from 0.3% to 13% at 1 year and from 0.4% to 19% at 5 years after primary THA, and from 2% to 32% at 1 year and from 3% to 42% at 5 years after revision THA. In the primary-THA group, the direct anterior approach (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.27) and lateral approach (HR = 0.58) decreased the dislocation risk compared with the posterior approach. After adjusting for the approach in that group, the combination of a ≥36-mm-diameter femoral head and an elevated liner yielded the largest decrease in dislocation risk (HR = 0.28), followed by dual-mobility constructs (HR = 0.48). In the patients who underwent revision THA, the adjusted risk of dislocation was most markedly decreased by the use of a dual-mobility construct (HR = 0.40), followed by a ≥36-mm femoral head and an elevated liner (HR = 0.88). The adjusted risk of dislocation after revision THA was decreased by acetabular revision (HR = 0.58), irrespective of whether other components were revised.ConclusionsOur patient-specific dislocation risk calculator, which was strengthened by our use of a robust multivariable model that accounted for comorbidities associated with instability, demonstrated wide-ranging patient-specific risks based on comorbidity profiles. The resultant nomograms can be used as a screening tool to identify patients at high risk for dislocation following THA and to individualize operative decisions for evidence-based risk mitigation.Level of evidencePrognostic Level IV.
