Influence of the femoral offset on the muscles passive resistance in total hip arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Soft tissue tension is treated as a crucial factor influencing the post-THA dislocation. The femoral offset is regarded as one of the major parameters responsible for the stabilization of the prosthesis. It is unclear which soft tissue is mostly affected by the offset changes.

Methods

A finite element model of the hip was created. The model comprised muscles, bones, a stem, the acetabular component and a liner. The muscles were modelled as a Hill-type musculo-tendon nonlinear springs. Nonlinear analyses of the hip flexion and internal rotation were performed for the two values of the femoral stem offset.

Results

We observed that the quadratus femoris and gluteus medius produce the largest resisting moment opposing the external load excreted by the surgeon during the intraoperative hip dislocation test.

Conclusions

An increased femoral offset increases the stretching of the quadratus femoris muscle significantly and provides the growth of its initial passive force. This muscle serves as a stiff band, providing stabilisation of the hip prosthesis, measured during the simulated intraoperative test.

Severe Pelvic Obliquity Affects Femoral Offset in Patients with Total Hip Arthroplasty but Not Leg-Length Inequality.

Project description:Leg-length inequality is an extensively studied complication of total hip arthroplasty in normal patients. However, few studies have focused on the pelvic obliquity of coronal pelvic malrotation. We hypothesized that pelvic obliquity with a fixed abduction/adduction contracture deformity of the hip may intraoperatively affect the release of soft tissues, ultimately resulting in a leg-length inequality. This study also investigated whether the femoral and vertical offsets of total hip arthroplasty were correlated with pelvic obliquity. This prospective study divided 98 patients into six groups based on the inclination of pelvic obliquity before total hip arthroplasty. Leg-length inequality, variation of pelvic obliquity, offset, and vertical offset were measured after total hip arthroplasty. Leg-length inequality and vertical offset were not significantly different among groups, whereas the variation of pelvic obliquity was significantly higher in type IIC pelvic obliquity than in other groups. Type IC pelvic obliquity had a significantly shorter offset than did the other groups, which may have been an important factor leading to type IC pelvic obliquity. Pelvic obliquity exhibited no significant effect on leg-length inequality in patients with total hip arthroplasty. A shorter offset may be caused by the higher tension of the abductor in the operated hip, which may result in the formation of type IC pelvic obliquity. Releasing the abductor contracture and restoring femoral offset are important for increasing hip stability and maintaining pelvic balance following total hip arthroplasty.

Restoring femoral offset and leg length; the potential of a short curved stem in total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is a very successful procedure in orthopedics. Still polyethylene wear and gait deficits are limiting the clinical success.It is important to reconstruct leg length (LL) and femoral offset (FO) anatomically in order to have the best possible result of a THA. Gait deficits can arise due to leg length discrepancy as well as changes in the abductor moment arm. In THA, LL and FO are strongly determined by the orientation, size and geometry of the femoral stem.MethodsThis radio-anatomical study used the data of a prospective cases series of 112 patients who underwent 126 primary THAs and had completed a 1-year follow-up examination. FO and LL were compared between the conventional straight stem in vivo and a computed simulated implantation of a short curved stem, using the pre- and postoperative pelvic radiographs of the same patients.ResultsIn this simulation of the short curved stem statistically significantly restored native FO (p = 0.010) and LL (p = 0.000) better, compared to the conventional straight stem.ConclusionsThus, the short curved stem restores FO and LL better, and could potentially prevent gait deficits.

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.

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.

Left Profunda Femoral Artery Pseudoaneurysm After Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:We present a case report of an 84-year-old male who presented with a profunda femoris artery (PFA) pseudoaneurysm 8 years after the index revision total hip arthroplasty procedure. Failure of revision hardware and subsequent migration of implants led to damage of the PFA and pseudoaneurysm formation. The patient was hemodynamically unstable on presentation and required emergent endovascular intervention. Once medically stabilized, the patient underwent extensive debridement of the aneurysm and hematoma bed and broken hardware was removed to prevent further complications. At 6-month follow-up, the patient was able to mobilize independently and had returned to all prior levels of activities of daily living. We discuss the vascular anatomy of the hip, the paucity of literature on PFA pseudoaneurysm, as well as the likely etiology of total hip arthroplasty failures.

Revision total hip arthroplasty using the Zweymuller femoral stem.

Project description:BACKGROUND: A variety of femoral stem designs have been reported to be successful in revision total hip arthroplasty without consensus as to optimal design. We evaluated the clinical and radiographic outcomes in a consecutive series of femoral revisions using a wedge-shape, tapered-stem design at medium and long-term follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective review of clinical and radiographic outcomes of twenty-eight consecutive femoral revisions arthroplasties, which were done using the Zweymuller femoral stem. RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 7.4 years (range 2-15 years). No stem re-revision was necessary. All stems were judged to be stable by radiographic criteria at the most recent follow-up. The final mean Harris hip score was 90. There was no difference in Harris hip scores, implant stability, or radiological appearance (distal cortical hypertrophy or proximal stress shielding) of the implants between medium-term (mean 5.7 years) and long-term (mean 12.4 years) follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: We found the Zweymuller femoral stem design to be durable for revision hip arthroplasty when there is an intact metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction for adequate press-fit stability at surgery.

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.

Does Powered Femoral Broaching Compromise Patient Safety in Total Hip Arthroplasty?

Project description:BackgroundDuring manual broaching (MB) in total hip arthroplasty (THA), off-axis forces delivered to the proximal femur and broach malalignment can lead to fractures and cortical perforations. Powered broaching (PB) is a novel alternative that delivers consistent impaction forces and reduces workload. This is the first large-scale study to compare intraoperative and 90-day rates of periprosthetic femur fractures (PFFs) and perforations in THA performed using MB vs PB.MethodsOur institutional database was reviewed for all patients undergoing primary cementless direct anterior THA from 2016 to 2021. Three surgeons performing 2048 THAs (MB = 800; PB = 1248) using the same stem design were included. PFFs and perforations within 90 days of the index procedure were compared. Differences in length of surgery and demographics were assessed.ResultsCalcar fractures occurred in <1% of patients (PB [0.96%, 12/1248] vs MB [0.25%, 2/800]; P = .06). Rates of trochanteric fractures did not differ (PB = 0.32% [4/1248] vs MB = 0.38% [3/800]; P = .84). Cortical perforations occurred in 0.24% (3/1248) of the PB cohort and in 0.75% (6/800) of the MB cohort (P = .09). No revisions due to aseptic loosening or PFF occurred within 120 days of surgery.ConclusionsOur single-center experience with powered femoral broaching in THA demonstrates PB is a safe and efficient means of performing direct anterior THA. Low rates (<1%) of PFF, perforation, and revision can be achieved. Given our positive experience with PB, all surgeon authors utilize PB nearly exclusively for elective primary direct anterior THA.

Relative Femoral Neck Lengthening in Legg-Calve-Perthes Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundTotal hip replacement (THR) in patients with a history of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease can be a technically challenging procedure due to the distorted hip morphology. We propose a technique in which THR is preceded by a modified relative femoral neck lengthening (RFNL) procedure. Hereby, we aim to restore the biomechanical parameters.MethodsTwenty-eight patients underwent RFNL in preparation of a second-stage THR between December 2011 and September 2019. The mean age was 38.1 ± 11.4 years. Radiographs were analyzed for centrotrochanteric distance, lateral displacement of the greater trochanter, and leg length discrepancy to assess the biomechanical restoration. Complication rate, reoperation rate, and patient-reported outcome measures were measured.ResultsMean centrotrochanteric distance increased from -18.7 ± 6.7 mm preoperatively to 1.9 ± 9.0 mm (P < .001) after RFNL and to 11.4 ± 10.4 mm after THR (P < .001). Mean lateral displacement of the greater trochanter increased from 34.2 ± 8.1 mm preoperatively to 42.4 ± 5.2 mm (P < .001) after RFNL and to 49.9 ± 8.3 mm after THR (P < .001). Leg length discrepancy decreased from 17.5 ± 10.5 mm to 2.7 ± 2.2 mm after THR (P < .001). Mean Harris Hip Score improved from 56.9 ± 17.6 preoperatively to 89.4 ± 10.7 at the latest follow-up (P < .001). Eight patients (8 hips) postponed THR because of sufficient clinical improvement, at a mean follow-up of 4.2 ± 2.1 years. Two hips needed a revision RFNL due to non-union (7.1%), and 1 hip replacement was revised due to a deep infection (5.0%).ConclusionsRFNL prior to THR in patients with end-stage osteoarthritis following Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease allows for utilizing regular implants with straight access to the femoral canal, with restored biomechanics and restoration of leg length. The prominent overhanging greater trochanter is reduced to prevent postoperative extra-articular impingement.

Total hip arthroplasty and femoral nail lengthening for hip dysplasia and limb-length discrepancy.

Project description:The application of distraction osteogenesis through the use of magnet-operated, remote-controlled intramedullary lengthening continues to provide new opportunities for accurate limb equalization. While limb-length discrepancy and deformity can be addressed by total hip arthroplasty alone, the magnitude of correction is limited by the soft-tissue envelope and complications such as sciatic nerve palsy. This 3-patient case series presents the combination of staged ipsilateral total hip arthroplasty and retrograde intramedullary femoral nail lengthening for the correction of both deformity and limb-length discrepancy. Our results report leg-length equalization, independent ambulation without assistive devices, and excellent bone and functional outcomes without complications, demonstrating that this combined technique can be used to achieve targeted lengthening and deformity correction.
