Proximal cement fixation in total hip arthroplasty--first results with a new stem design.

ABSTRACT: Stem loosening and stress-shielding are problems encountered in cemented hip arthroplasty. Could proximal stem fixation by partial cementing solve the problem? More physiological transmission of forces with only proximal cement fixation seems to be possible with this recent development (Z-stem, Option 3000, Mathys Orthopaedics, Bettlach, Switzerland). In a prospective clinical trial, this new implant was used for total hip arthroplasty in human patients. One hundred and thirty-three (133) total hip replacements in 123 patients were performed between April 1996 and January 2003. All of them were followed up regularly; 53 were analysed with the EBRA-FCA method (Einzel Bild Röntgen Analyse--femoral component analysis), whereas the rest were analysed using conventional follow-up X-rays. Eighty-six (86) patients with 95 hips could be examined in August 2004 to obtain mid-term results. At this stage, the mean follow-up time was 61 months (5.08 years), with a maximum of 100 months (8.33 years). Up to October 2004, nine cases needed a revision. The clinical data collected reported an average Harris Hip Score of 89.3 (good). The EBRA-FCA analysis reported a mean subsidence of less than 1.5 mm after the first two years, under the EBRA threshold of predicted loosening. At the latest follow-up (at an average of 61 months), there was an average stable subsidence of 2.4 mm in general. Eight (8) patients presented with subsidence of more than 5 mm. The results of the new implant seem to be encouraging. Finally, comparing our results to other fixation concepts will require longer follow-up periods.

Quality of the femoral cement mantle in total hip arthroplasty using the direct anterior hip approach.

Project description:BackgroundLimited literature exists concerning the femoral cement mantle quality that can be achieved through an anterior approach in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We radiologically evaluated the quality and thickness of the femoral cement mantle in patients undergoing THA utilizing the direct anterior approach (DAA).MethodsImmediate postoperative anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of 116 consecutive patients who underwent hybrid or fully cemented THA using the DAA and cemented Quadra-C stem (Medacta, International, SA, Switzerland) were assessed by 2 arthroplasty surgeons blinded to the study. Surgical indications were hip osteoarthritis or subcapital hip fracture. The cement mantle and stem alignment were evaluated using the Barrack classification and Khalily methods, respectively. After calibration of radiographs, the thinnest part of the cement mantle per Gruen zone was recorded. Parameters were compared between obese and nonobese patients.ResultsAgreement between raters was substantial for the cement quality in anteroposterior (k = 0.707, P ≤ .001) and moderate for lateral radiographs (k = 0.574, P ≤ 001). The cement mantle was graded A in 39.25%, B in 53.0%, and C in 7.75% of anteroposterior radiographs and similarly for lateral radiographs (40.1% A, 51.75% B, 9.5% C). 93% of stems had neutral alignment. The mean thinnest cement mantle (P = .237) and incidence of inadequate cement mantle (<2 mm) per zone (P = .431) were comparable between Gruen zones. The cement mantle quality (P = .174) and inadequacy (P > .05) and stem alignment (P = .652) were comparable between obese and nonobese patients.ConclusionsDAA enables correct implantation and effective cementation of straight femoral stems. A high-quality cement mantle can be achieved using DAA even in obese patients.

To cement or not to cement acetabular cups in total hip arthroplasty: a systematic review and re-evaluation.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of primary osteoarthritis of the hip has evolved to a very safe and cost-effective intervention with revision rates below 5% after 10 years. To this day, however, controversy remains on whether or not to cement the acetabular cup. METHODS:A comprehensive PubMed search of the English literature for studies published between 2007 and 2018 was performed. Studies comparing the clinical (revision rate, functionality), radiological (wear) or economic (cost) differences between cemented (cemented stem with cemented cup) and hybrid (cemented stem with uncemented cup) prostheses for primary osteoarthritis of the hip were identified as eligible. RESULTS:A total of 1032 studies were identified whereof twelve were included for qualitative synthesis. All studies concerning the risk of revision were based on registry data, covering a total of 365,693 cups. Cemented prostheses had a similar or lower risk of revision compared to hybrid prostheses in every study, but performed slightly worse on functionality and quality of life. While cemented prostheses were the cheapest option, hybrids were the most cost-effective. DISCUSSION:The widespread preference for cementless fixation of the acetabulum cannot be explained by a superior survival of cementless or hybrid models. Irrespective of age, cemented fixation of the acetabulum remains the gold standard to which other techniques should be compared.

Lower periprosthetic bone loss and good fixation of an ultra-short stem compared to a conventional stem in uncemented total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:We hypothesized that an ultra-short stem would load the proximal femur in a more physiological way and could therefore reduce the adaptive periprosthetic bone loss known as stress shielding.51 patients with primary hip osteoarthritis were randomized to total hip arthroplasty (THA) with either an ultra-short stem or a conventional tapered stem. The primary endpoint was change in periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD), measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), in Gruen zones 1 and 7, two years after surgery. Secondary endpoints were change in periprosthetic BMD in the entire periprosthetic region, i.e. Gruen zones 1 through 7, stem migration measured with radiostereometric analysis (RSA), and function measured with self-administered functional scores.The periprosthetic decrease in BMD was statistically significantly lower with the ultra-short stem. In Gruen zone 1, the mean difference was 18% (95% CI: -27% to -10%). In zone 7, the difference was 5% (CI: -12% to -3%) and for Gruen zones 1-7 the difference was also 5% (CI: -9% to -2%). During the first 6 weeks postoperatively, the ultra-short stems migrated 0.77 mm more on average than the conventional stems. 3 months after surgery, no further migration was seen. The functional scores improved during the study and were similar in the 2 groups.Up to 2 years after total hip arthroplasty, compared to the conventional tapered stem the ultra-short uncemented anatomical stem induced lower periprosthetic bone loss and had equally excellent stem fixation and clinical outcome.

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.

Long-Term Results of Delta Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundCeramic-on-ceramic (COC) bearings in total hip arthroplasty (THA) have long been considered the coupling with the lowest overall wear. However, concerns about complications such as ceramic breakage and noise, combined with the improved performance of polyethylene, have limited its use in the United States. This postapproval follow-up reports long-term (10 years) results of Delta COC in THA patients primarily enrolled in an Investigational Device Exemption study.MethodsPatients received Delta COC THA in a prospective multicenter study with either 28-mm (N = 105 hips in 104 patients) or 36-mm (N = 81) articulations. Annual clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed for years 5 to 10, and study patients were asked about hip noises and reproducibility.ResultsThere have been 4 additional reports of noise in 4 patients (COC 28, n = 3; COC 36, n = 1). The cumulative incidence rate for squeaking or noise at 10 years is 5.9% for COC 28 and 13.5% for COC 36. There have been 2 additional reports of dislocation in 2 patients (COC 28, n = 1; COC 36, n = 1). The cumulative incidence rate for dislocation at 10 years is 3.7% for COC 28 and 3.5% for COC 36. At 10 years, there were greater than 40 hips available for follow-up. At mean 10-year follow-up, there were a total of 3 ceramic liner fractures, but none since the previous report. There were no revisions in the 28-mm cohort, and 2 revisions in the 36-mm cohort (1 for recurrent dislocation and 1 for pain and noise). Overall Kaplan-Meier survivorship was 95.96% at 10.5 years (28 mm: 97.68% at 10.2 years; 36 mm: 94.11% at 10.4 years.).ConclusionsAt 10-year follow-up, we report excellent results in regard to survivorship, with one patient revised for pain with associated squeaking.

Survival and revision causes of hip resurfacing arthroplasty and the Mitch proximal epiphyseal replacement: results from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register.

Project description:Background and purpose - The Mitch proximal epiphyseal replacement (PER) was developed to preserve proximal femoral bone and minimize femoral neck fracture associated with hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA). We studied the survival and risk of revision of HRA compared with cementless metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) total hip arthroplasty (THA) and the survival and risk of revision of the Mitch PER compared with MoP THA.Patients and methods - Using propensity score, we matched 1,057 HRA to 1,057 MoP THA and 202 Mitch PER to 1,010 MoP THA from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register. To estimate the relative risk (RR) of revision, we used regression with the pseudo-value approach and treated death as a competing risk.Results - The cumulative incidence for any revision of HRA at 10 years' follow-up was 11% (95% confidence interval [CI] 9.1-13) and 6.4% (CI 5.8-7.0) for MoP THA. The RR of any revision was 1.5 (CI 1.1-2.1) for HRA at 10 years' follow-up. By excluding the ASR components, the RR of revision at 10 years was 1.2 (CI 0.8-1.7). The cumulative incidence of revision was 9.6% (CI 4.2-18) for Mitch PER and 5.4% (CI 5.1-5.7) for MoP THA at 8 years. The RR of revision was 2.0 (CI 0.9-4.3) for Mitch PER at 8 years' follow-up.Interpretation - The HRA had increased risk of revision compared with the MoP THA. When excluding ASR, the HRA group had similar risk of revision compared with MoP THA. The Mitch PER did not have a statistically significant increased risk of revision compared with MoP THA.

Short-stem total hip arthroplasty is not associated with an earlier return to work compared to a straight-stem design.

Project description:Return to work (RTW) has been specifically identified as a high priority in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). This investigation sought to assess the effect of the stem design on patients' RTW. Secondly, the study aimed to identify risk factors that lead to a delayed RTW. Questionnaires inquiring about RTW, employment history, educational level, type of work, physical demands and joint awareness were administered by post. Further data were collected from patients' hospital records. 176 patients who underwent THA using a short-stem and 97 patients using a straight-stem design were compared. The median return to work time was 10 weeks [IQR 7-14 weeks], with no significant difference between the two groups (short stems vs. straight stems; 10 [IQR 7-14] vs. 11 [7.5-13.5] weeks; p = 0.693). In the multivariate linear regression analysis, self-employment vs. employee (p = 0.001), dimension of preoperative workload (p = 0.001), preoperative sick leave (p < 0.001), and hospital length of stay (LOS) (p < 0.001) independently affected the period until work was resumed. The Forgotten-Joint-Score-12 showed no significant difference between the two groups. The data show that the majority of THA patients can expect to resume work and stem design has no impact on RTW. Employees with preoperative sick leave, prolonged hospital LOS and low workload are at higher risk for a delayed RTW.

[Individual megaspacers in two-stage revision of infected total hip arthroplasty-clinical and functional results after 2 years : Individual metal-endoskeleton cement spacer (iMECS)].

Project description:BackgroundLarge femoral defects in late periprosthetic infection (PPI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) often require the use of large, individual metal endoskeleton-reinforced cement spacers (iMECS).ObjectivesThe aim was to record the clinical, radiological and functional results (Harris Hip Score HHS) up to the 2 years after treatment of a PPI using an iMECS. Major patient-specific parameters were to be evaluated with regard to the treatment outcome.Materials and methodsThe collective of this single-center retrospective cohort study comprised 29 patients. The mean follow-up was 24.4 months (range: 23.0 to 27.6 months). The absence of infection after endoprosthetic hip joint reconstruction was rated as successful treatment. The two patient groups (successful (S)/not successful (nS)) were compared with regard to gender distribution, the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), the number of previous septic changes, and the rate of polymicrobial and difficult-to-treat infections.ResultsThe average CCI in the total collective was 6.4 points. Joint reconstruction was possible in 23 of 29 patients (79%); 2 years after PPI treatment 4 patients were not available for a follow-up examination (2 deceased, 2 unable to participate). At the time of the follow-up, 17 of the 29 patients had received a joint reconstruction and were free of infection, with an average HHS of 75 points. There were no iMECS-associated complications requiring revision. Only the initial CCI (S: 4.1 points; nS: 9.7 points) differed significantly between the patient groups (p < 0.05).ConclusionsIn the case of large femoral defects, iMECS provide secure temporary stabilization. The chance of a successful joint reconstruction is closely related to the individual comorbidities profile.

Reconstruction of Proximal Metaphyseal Femoral Defects Using Trabecular Metal Augments in Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:Porous tantalum augments are widely used in revision total hip arthroplasty for the reconstruction of severe bone defects. Here, we present the first 3 cases who underwent femoral revision arthroplasty using standard distal femoral and proximal tibial porous tantalum cones to reconstruct severe bone loss in the proximal femur. Cones were inserted press fit, followed by implantation of a cemented revision stem in all cases. After a mean follow-up period of 15.8 months, all patients showed an improved Harris-Hip-Score and no radiological signs of subsidence or loosening. Porous tantalum cones may be an option in the reconstruction of severe femoral defects in revision total hip arthroplasty. The shape of the tantalum cones should be optimized for the use in the proximal femur.
