Project description:Using a validated finite element (FE) protocol, we quantified cartilage and labrum mechanics, congruency, and femoral coverage in five male patients before and after they were treated for acetabular retroversion with peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO). Three-dimensional models of bone, cartilage, and labrum were generated from computed tomography (CT) arthrography images, acquired before and after PAO. Walking, stair-ascent, stair-descent, and rising from a chair were simulated. Cartilage and labrum contact stress, contact area, and femoral coverage were calculated overall and regionally. Mean congruency (average of local congruency values for FE nodes in contact) and peak congruency (most incongruent node in contact) were calculated overall and regionally. Load supported by the labrum was represented as a raw change in the ratio of the applied force transferred through the labrum and percent change following surgery (calculated overall only). Considering all activities, following PAO, mean acetabular cartilage contact stress increased medially, superiorly, and posteriorly; peak stress increased medially and posteriorly. Peak labrum stresses decreased overall and superiorly. Acetabular contact area decreased overall and laterally, and increased medially. Labral contact area decreased overall, but not regionally. Load to the labrum decreased. Femoral head coverage increased overall, anterolaterally, and posterolaterally, but decreased anteromedially. Mean congruency indicated the hip became less congruent overall, anteriorly, and posteriorly; peak congruency indicated a less congruent joint posteriorly. CLINICAL RELEVANCE:Medialization of contact and reductions in labral loading following PAO may prevent osteoarthritis, but this procedure increases cartilage stresses, decreases contact area, and makes the hip less congruent, which may overload cartilage. © 2017 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Project description:Rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) is a well-established surgical procedure for patients with acetabular dysplasia, and excellent long-term results have been reported. However, RAO is technically demanding and precise execution of this procedure requires experience with this surgery. The usefulness of computer navigation in RAO includes its ability to perform three-dimensional (3D) preoperative planning, enable safe osteotomy even with a poor visual field, reduce exposure to radiation from intraoperative fluoroscopy, and display the tip position of the chisel in real time, which is educationally useful as it allows staff other than the operator to follow the progress of the surgery. In our results comparing 23 hips that underwent RAO with navigation and 23 hips operated on without navigation, no significant difference in radiological assessment was observed. However, no perioperative complications were observed in the navigation group whereas one case of transient femoral nerve palsy was observed in non-navigation group. A more accurate and safer RAO can be performed using 3D preoperative planning and intraoperative assistance with a computed tomography-based navigation system.

Project description:Background:There are a number of reports of polyethylene liner dissociation of third-generation modular acetabular components. This study compares our experience with 2 contemporary systems to determine whether this is an implant- or class-specific problem. Methods:This is a single-center retrospective study of 961 primary total hip arthroplasties using 2 third-generation modular cementless acetabular shells: Pinnacle (535) and R3 (426) with a polyethylene liner. Details of all revisions were obtained from local databases and the New Zealand Joint Registry. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were calculated for all-cause revision, acetabular reoperation (including liner exchange), and liner dissociation. Results:There were 17 revisions in group 1 (Pinnacle; DePuy Synthes): 17 for recurrent dislocation, 6 for liner dissociations (1.12%), 3 for femoral loosening, and one for deep infection. In group 2 (R3; Smith and Nephew), there were 4 revision procedures: one for infection, 2 for dislocation, and one femoral revision for periprosthetic fracture. There were significantly higher proportions revised in group 1 for all-cause revision, acetabular reoperation, and dissociation (P = .024 to 0.038). The 7-year survival for all-cause revision was 96.1% for Pinnacle and 99.0% for R3 (P = .022), and that in the acetabular reoperation group was 96.9% for Pinnacle and 99.3% for R3 (P = .035). Conclusions:There was a higher revision rate for the Pinnacle acetabular component than for the R3 at 7 years. This was mainly due to polyethylene liner dissociation that can occur early or late. It appears to be a problem specific to the Pinnacle cup design rather than a feature of similar third-generation acetabular components.

Project description:Background and purpose - Impaction bone grafting (IBG) is an established method in hip revision surgery to reconstruct loss of bone stock. There is limited knowledge concerning the actual bone remodelling process within the allograft. We investigated with repeated bone mineral density (BMD) measurements the biological process of bone remodelling in the allograft in vivo. We hypothesized that an initial decrease in BMD would be followed by an increase towards baseline values. Patients and methods - Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure BMD values in 3 regions of interest (ROI) in 20 patients (average age at surgery 70 years, 11 males) after an acetabular reconstruction with IBG and a cemented cup. A postoperative DXA was used as baseline and DXA was repeated at 3 and 6 months and at 1 and 2 years. The Oxford Hip Score (OHS), the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF12), and a 0 to 100?mm visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction were obtained simultaneously. Results - The overall mean BMD in the IBG regions increased significantly by 9% (95% CI 2-15) at 2 years' follow-up. In the cranial ROI BMD increased 14% (CI 6-22), whereas the BMD in the medial and caudal ROI showed an increase of 10% (CI 1-18) and 4% (CI -6-16), respectively. The OHS, SF12-mental, and VAS for pain all improved statistically significantly 2 years after surgery, with a mean VAS for satisfaction of 77 (CI 63-90) out of 100 points. The SF12-physical showed non-significant improvement. Interpretation - The BMD in the allograft gradually increased after IBG for acetabular reconstruction arthroplasties, particularly in the cranial ROI. An initial decrease in the BMD was not encountered. These BMD changes, as proxy measurements for bone remodeling, may indicate progressive apposition of vital new host bone in the grafted area.

Project description:BackgroundTo be FDA approved, acetabular shells must undergo rigorous testing. To prevent implant failure, acetabular shells must be able to tolerate peak loads during impaction with minimal deformation. The implants must therefore be validated in order to ensure that their structural integrity can tolerate peak loads. The current ISO 7206-12 recommends manufacturing an expensive single-purpose testing device to measure the deformation of acetabular shells. In the article, we provide an open access methodology, that can be conducted with minimal expense, for testing acetabular shell deformation.MethodsWe designed our experimental setup to utilize a servohydraulic materials testing device (Instron) commonly found in biomechanics laboratories and then validated the measurements optically with optical data. Furthermore, we designed an inexpensive acetabular screw fastener which acts as an adaptor that can be used to mount a variety of acetabular shell types just as effectively as current methods and is in compliance with the standards outlined in ISO 7206-12:2016.ResultsA Bland-Altman plot comparing the Instron and optical displacement measurements found the standard deviation of bias to be 0.046 mm and an insignificant systemic bias.ConclusionWe have developed and validated a low-cost open-source system that can effectively test acetabular shell deformation that meets ISO standards.

Project description:Background: Acetabular cage reconstruction with bone allografts is among the successful strategies to deal with massive acetabular bone loss. However, the nonbiological fixation nature of cages can compromise long-term success. Tantalum trabecular metal acetabular cups (TM cups) have been used in acetabular revision surgery because of their increased initial stability and good bone ingrowth features. This study was performed to determine whether the bone stock of the acetabulum is enough to support a hemispheric TM cup after failed cage reconstruction with bone allografts. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients who received acetabular revision surgery with TM cups after failed cage reconstruction with bone allografts from 2006 to 2017. There were 12 patients (5 males and 7 females) included in this study, with a mean age of 61.5 years (38 to 81) at the time of re-revision surgery. The mean follow-up after re-revision surgery was 8.6 years (2.6 to 13.3). The endpoint was defined as the aseptic loosening of the TM cup and reoperation for any causes. The change in bone stock of the acetabulum between index revision and re-revision was assessed according to the Gross classification for acetabular bone loss. Results: One patient died after eight years of follow-up of a cause not related to hip surgery. Two patients received two-stage revision arthroplasty due to PJI after 3.2 and 9.4 years of follow-up, respectively. The bone stock of the acetabulum was significantly improved between index revision and re-revision surgery (p < 0.0001). The Kaplan-Meier survivorship was 100% with aseptic loosening as the endpoint and 90% and 75% at five- and ten-year follow-up, respectively, with reoperation for any reason as the endpoint. Even cage reconstruction with bone allografts will fail eventually, and the bone stock of the acetabulum will improve after union and incorporation between host bone and allografts. The restored bone stocks will facilitate further revision surgery with hemispheric TM cups. The biological fixation between host bone and tantalum trabecular metal can provide longstanding stability of the TM cup. Conclusions: The results of our study offer a viable option for patients with failed cage reconstruction with bone allografts.

Project description:UNLABELLED: Restoration of femoral offset and acetabular inclination may have an effect on polyethylene (PE) wear in THA. We therefore assessed the effect of femoral offset and acetabular inclination (angle) on acetabular conventional (not highly cross-linked) PE wear in uncemented THA. We prospectively followed 43 uncemented THAs for a minimum of 49 months (mean, 64 months; range, 49-88 months). Radiographs were assessed for femoral offset, acetabular inclination, and conventional PE wear. The mean (+/- standard deviation) linear wear rate in all THAs was 0.14 mm/year (+/- 0.01 mm/year) and the mean volumetric wear rate was 53.1 mm(3)/year (+/- 5.5 mm(3)/year). In THAs with an acetabular angle less than 45 degrees , the mean wear was 0.12 mm/year (+/- 0.01 mm/year) compared with 0.18 mm/year (+/- 0.02 mm/year) in those with a reconstructed acetabular angle greater than 45 degrees . Reproduction of a reconstructed femoral offset to within 5 mm of the native femoral offset was associated with a reduction in conventional PE wear (0.12 mm/year versus 0.16 mm/year). Careful placement of the acetabular component to ensure an acetabular angle less than 45 degrees in the reconstructed hip allows for reduced conventional PE wear. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, prospective study. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Project description:BackgroundChanges in acetabular or hip center of rotation (HCOR) commonly occur during acetabular component preparation during total hip arthroplasty (THA). HCOR displacement in mediolateral or superoinferior directions is known to influence offset and leg length, but the incidence and range of HCOR change in the anteroposterior direction is less understood as the sagittal plane cannot be measured on standard anteroposterior radiographs. This study assessed the 3-dimensional displacement of HCOR after cup implantation and evaluated for potential factors associated with increased acetabular component translations.MethodsA total of 894 THAs were performed using a posterior, lateral, or direct anterior approach. Only intraoperative data from the navigation device were included in the analysis. All THAs performed between September 2015 and October 2017 were included. Paired t -tests were used to compare native HCOR and new HCOR values.ResultsThe mean HCOR displacement in 3 directions was 4.97mm medially (P < .001), 0.83mm superiorly (P < .001), and 0.64mm posteriorly (P < .001). Subgroup analysis revealed greater posterior HCOR displacement with the anterior approach than the lateral/posterior approach (2.32mm vs 0.44mm; P < .001). Increasing medial HCOR displacement also resulted in increased superior and posterior HCOR displacement across surgical cases (P < .001).ConclusionsHCOR displacement is commonly observed in medial, superior, and posterior directions. HCOR changes are influenced by surgical approach, potentially secondary to patient positioning, with greater posterior HCOR displacement observed in anterior cases. Surgeons should be aware of these factors, particularly in cases with deficient or reduced posterior column bone stock.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of acetabular component orientation on the basic stress path above the acetabular dome in the recommended safe zone.MethodsA subject-specific normal hip finite element model was generated and a convergence study carried out to determine the number of material properties for trabecular bone using a normal hip model. Four abduction angles (35°, 40°, 45° and 50°) and four anteversion angles (10°, 15°, 20° and 25°) from the recommended safe zone of acetabular cup orientation were chosen to simulate acetabular reconstruction. The distribution and level of periacetabular stress was assessed using a normal hip model as a control and 16 reconstructed acetabula in simulated single-legged stances.ResultsThe error of the average stress between plans four and five (50 and 100 materials for trabecular bone respectively) was 4.8%, which is less than the previously defined 5% error. The effect of acetabular component orientation on stress distribution in trabecular bone was not pronounced. When the acetabular component was at 15° anteversion and the abduction angle was 40° or 45°, the stress level on posterolateral cortical bone above the acetabular dome was as stable as that in the normal hip model.ConclusionsAcetabular component orientation affects the basic stress path above the acetabular dome. Thus, orientation should be considered when attempting to restore normal biomechanics in the main load-bearing area.

Project description:ObjectiveAs conventional plates require repeated pre-bending during surgery with poor matching, this study aimed to explore the design and application of an acetabular integrative anatomical plate (AIAP) via the lateral-rectus approach (LRA) in fresh complex acetabular fractures for the good reduction and fixation.MethodsWe designed an AIAP based on the anatomical morphology of the Chinese people. From March 2016 to September 2021, 178 patients with fresh complex acetabular fractures treated with an AIAP via the LRA were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated by the LRA under general anesthesia in a supine position. The fragments were well reduced and fixed by AIAPs. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded. All patients underwent reexamination of pelvic X-rays and CT scans and were followed up for over 1 year postoperatively. The reduction quality of fracture was evaluated according to the Matta criteria. The postoperative functional recovery was evaluated by modified Merle d'Aubigne-Postel scoring system. Statistics were analyzed by SPSS 25.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).ResultsAll 178 patients went through the operation successfully. The time from injury to operation ranged from 5 to 21 days (8.7 ± 2.6 days). The operation time ranged from 35 to 150 min (75 ± 29 min). The intraoperative blood loss was from 250 to 1400 ml (440 ± 153 ml). According to the Matta score, the fracture reduction was evaluated as excellent in 131 cases, good in 31 cases, and poor in 16 cases, with an overall excellent and good rate of 91%. Four patients suffered wound fat liquefaction and healed after fresh dressing. All patients were followed up for 1 to 5 years without wound infection. All fractures were healed. At the last follow-up, the modified Merle d'Aubigne-Postel score results were evaluated as excellent in 125 cases, good in 26 cases, and fair in 27 cases, with an overall excellent and good rate of 84.8%. Postoperative complications included six cases of traumatic arthritis of the hips and two cases of femoral head necrosis.ConclusionThe LRA with an AIAP can help expose, reduce, and fix anterior and posterior columns as well as the quadrilateral area of the acetabulum, which is capable of improving the reduction quality of complex acetabular fractures and shortening surgical time and blood loss, thus reaching a good clinical efficacy.
