Combined anteversion technique for total hip arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT: Combined cup and stem anteversion in THA based on femoral anteversion has been suggested as a method to compensate for abnormal femoral anteversion. We investigated the combined anteversion technique using computer navigation. In 47 THAs, the surgeon first estimated the femoral broach anteversion and validated the position by computer navigation. The broach was then measured with navigation. The navigation screen was blocked while the surgeon estimated the anteversion of the broach. This provided two estimates of stem anteversion. The navigated stem anteversion was validated by postoperative CT scans. All cups were implanted using navigation alone. We determined precision (the reproducibility) and bias (how close the average test number is to the true value) of the stem position. Comparing the surgeon estimate to navigation anteversion, the precision of the surgeon was 16.8 degrees and bias was 0.2 degrees ; comparing the navigation of the stem to postoperative CT anteversion, the precision was 4.8 degrees and bias was 0.2 degrees , meaning navigation is accurate. Combined anteversion by postoperative CT scan was 37.6 degrees +/- 7 degrees (standard deviation) (range, 19 degrees -50 degrees ). The combined anteversion with computer navigation was within the safe zone of 25 degrees to 50 degrees for 45 of 47 (96%) hips. Femoral stem anteversion had a wide variability.Level II, therapeutic study. See the Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

MAASH Technique for Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Capsular Work.

Project description:BackgroundDislocation and leg length discrepancy are major complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Many surgical approaches for THA have been described, but none suggest a capsular incision that assures good exposure while maintaining adequate capsule integrity in closure.PurposesModified anterolateral approach for stable hip (MAASH) is a modification of the classical Hardinge approach, but specifically preserves the anterior iliofemoral lateral ligament and pubofemoral ligament excising the "weak area" of the capsule, in the so called "internervous safe zone" and introducing the "box concept" for the anterior approach to the hip. This is the main difference of the MAASH approach. This technique can be used as a standard for all THA standard models, but we introduce new devices to make it easier.MethodsFrom November 2007 to May 2012, data were collected for this observational retrospective consecutive case study. We report the results of 100 THA cases corresponding to the development curve of this new concept in THA technique.ResultsMAASH technique offers to hip surgeons, a reliable and reproducible THA anterolateral technique assuring accurate reconstruction of leg length and a low rate of dislocation. Only one dislocation and six major complications are reported, but most of them occurred at the early stages of technique development.ConclusionMAASH technique proposes a novel concept on working with the anterior capsule of the hip for the anterolateral approach in total hip arthroplasty, as well as for hemiarthroplasty in the elderly population with high dislocation risk factors. MAASH offers maximal stability and the ability to restore leg length accurately.

Anterior Percutaneous-Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty: Surgical Technique and Early Outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous-assisted arthroplasty was introduced to minimize complications traditionally associated with minimally invasive techniques, such as component malposition and periprosthetic fracture. Proponents of percutaneous-assisted techniques have more than 15 years of clinical utilization with good outcomes. This study reports our early experience, and outcomes, with an anterior percutaneous-assisted total hip arthroplasty (AnteriorPath).MethodsA retrospective evaluation of a single-surgeon experience with the first 46 patients undergoing AnteriorPath using a cannula for acetabular cup instrumentation was compared with a similar-sized cohort undergoing traditional direct anterior (DA) total hip arthroplasty. Patients needed at least 2 postoperative visits for inclusion. Baseline preoperative characteristics, operative time, component positioning, and 6-week all-cause complications were evaluated. P values <.05 were considered statistically significant.ResultsLonger operative times were experienced with the AnteriorPath vs DA THA (93.6 minutes ± 38.6 vs 79.6 minutes ± 23.2, respectively, P = .0503). There were no significant differences in component abduction (40.14° DA vs 41.95° AnteriorPath, P = .1058). A statistically significant difference was found in component anteversion (32.8° DA vs 27.25° AnteriorPath, P = .0039). There were higher rates of short-term complications in patients undergoing DA THA (9.09% DA vs 2.5% AnteriorPath).ConclusionsEarly experience with an AnteriorPath demonstrates similar short-term outcomes compared with traditional DA THA. The use of a percutaneous technique has also allowed for a smaller incision, in-line acetabular cup reaming and impaction under direct visualization, and limited trauma to surrounding soft tissues. Further long-term studies with a larger sample size are needed to evaluate the potential benefits and complications of this novel technique.

Novel cemented cup-holding technique while performing total hip arthroplasty with navigation system.

Project description:Recently, navigation systems have been more widely utilized in total hip arthroplasty. However, almost all of these systems have been developed for cementless cups. In the case of cemented total hip arthroplasty using a navigation system, a special-ordered cemented holder is needed. We propose a novel cemented cup-holding technique for navigation systems using readily available articles. We combine a cementless cup holder with an inverted cementless trial cup. The resulting apparatus is used as a cemented cup holder. The upside-down cup-holding technique is useful and permits cemented cup users to utilize a navigation system for placement of the acetabular component.

A Novel Technique to Detect Femoral Shaft Perforation during Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:Despite its popularity, the direct anterior approach for hip arthroplasty is not without complications. Intraoperative femoral shaft perforation using this approach ranges from 0.8% to 7%. A missed perforation can lead to fracture with the need for further surgery if not detected intraoperatively. We describe a reproducible and cost-effective technique using a plastic Yankauer suction handle to help identify proximal femoral perforations during direct anterior total hip arthroplasty. Careful attention to the visual, tactile, and auditory feedback provided by the suction handle can help ensure the cortical continuity of the proximal femur. Familiarity with relevant surgical anatomy, improving surgical technique, and scrutinizing implant positioning helps minimize the risk of complications during the direct anterior approach.

A simple technique to remove well-fixed acetabular components in revision of total hip arthroplasty.

Project description:Removing well-fixed acetabular components can be a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons in revision of total hip arthroplasty. Acetabular bone loss, fracture, and other complications occurred in extracting implants may result in instability and fail of revision. Thus, instruments are developed to avoid such complications. We report a simple technique by drilling a tunnel on the superolateral quadrant of acetabulum and using an offset staff to remove acetabular components without many matching units. The procedure of removing well-fixed acetabular components is a simple, efficient, inexpensive, bone stock preserving technique.

Restoration of Proximal Femoral Anatomy during Total Hip Arthroplasty for High Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip: An Original Technique.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:To introduce a modified osteotomy method for proximal femur reconstruction (PFR) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for high developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHOD:A retrospective study was performed in a series of 24 patients (26 hips) with Crowe III/IV DDH who underwent THA and simultaneous PFR. We used an animated video to illustrate and help understand the procedure for this technique. Patients were reviewed clinically and radiographically with an average follow-up of 31?months. The Harris hip score (HHS) was recorded preoperatively and at 3 and 12?months postoperatively. RESULTS:All patients achieved primary bone union. No revision was needed up to the latest follow-up. One patient had a dislocation due to self-fall and received manual reduction under general anesthesia. No patient had intraoperative femoral fractures, sciatic nerve injury, or infection. The mean HHS improved from 33.48?±?9.06 preoperatively to 84.61?±?4.78 immediately after surgery and 90.84?±?4.96 at 12?months. CONCLUSION:Proximal femur reconstruction is a simple and practical technique for femoral remolding during THA in patients with high DDH.

Total hip arthroplasty for developmental hip dysplasia.

Project description:We reviewed 38 hip replacements in 33 female patients (mean age 55.3 years) with developmental hip dysplasia. One patient had died and the remaining 32 patients (36 hips) had a mean follow-up of 12.2 years (range 8-19 years). All hips were replaced using the Müller cemented implant, and in 32 hips bulk femoral head autograft was used. In 33 hips the socket was reconstructed at the level of the true acetabulum. Complications included one intra-operative femoral fracture and two early dislocations. Correction of leg length discrepancy was possible in 30 patients. The post-operative mean modified Merle d'Aubigne and Postel scores for pain, movement and walking were 5.9, 5, and 5.3 respectively. One cup was revised due to aseptic loosening at ten years. All grafts united, but minor graft resorption was noticed in 24 hips, moderate in 2 hips and major in 1 hip.

Biplanar Low-Dose Radiography Is Accurate for Measuring Combined Anteversion After Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Project description:BackgroundAcetabular component position alone has not been predictive of stability after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Combined anteversion of the acetabulum and femur has the potential of being more predictive of stability. Unfortunately, femoral component position is difficult to measure on plain radiographs. Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for measuring implant position post-operatively, but CT exposes patients to a substantial amount of radiation.Questions/purposesWe sought to determine whether biplanar low-dose radiography can be used to accurately measure both acetabular and femoral implant position after THA.MethodsTwenty patients underwent standing low-dose biplanar spine-to-ankle radiographs and supine CT scans 6 weeks after THA. Measurements of acetabular inclination, acetabular anteversion, and femoral anteversion were performed by two blinded observers and compared.ResultsThe average absolute differences between biplanar radiographs and CT scans were 2°?±?2° for acetabular inclination, 3°?±?2° for acetabular anteversion, and 4°?±?4° for femoral anteversion between EOS measurements and CT measurements. Interobserver agreement was good for acetabular inclination, acetabular anteversion, and femoral anteversion (Cronbach's ??=?0.90) using biplanar low-dose imaging.ConclusionBiplanar radiography is a reliable low-radiation alternative for measuring acetabular inclination, acetabular anteversion, femoral version, and thus combined anteversion compared to CT. Femoral anteversion had the most variability but is still clinically relevant.

The Direct Anterior Approach Total Hip Arthroplasty Reliably Achieves "Safe Zones" for Combined Anteversion.

Project description:BackgroundIn total hip arthroplasty (THA), component position is critical to avoid instability and improve longevity. Appropriate combined femoral and acetabular component anteversion is important for improved THA stability and increased impingement-free range of motion. In direct anterior THA (DA-THA), concern has been expressed regarding the accuracy of femoral component positioning. This study seeks to quantify acetabular, femoral, and combined component orientation relative to the accepted "safe zones" in patients who have undergone DA-THA.MethodsTwenty-nine patients who had THA performed via direct anterior approach had postoperative computerized tomography scans done to assess femoral anteversion. Stem rotational alignment was measured relative to the transepicondylar axis (TEA) and the posterior condylar axis (PCA) of the femur at the knee. Acetabular abduction and version were recorded on anteroposterior pelvis radiographs.ResultsThe mean stem anteversion was 17.5° (standard deviation = 10.8°) from the TEA and 21.7° (standard deviation = 11.3°) from the PCA. Ten of 30 cups were appropriately anteverted; however, all the cups had appropriate abduction. Combined version when using the TEA resulted in 79% (23/29) of patients within the "safe zone" of 25°-50°. Pearson correlation coefficients were high for both stem anteversion from the TEA (R = 0.96) and PCA (R = 0.98); however, interobserver reliability for combined component anteversion was greater for the TEA (kappa, 0.83 vs 0.65).ConclusionsCombined anteversion within the "safe zone" was achieved 79% of the time with DA-THA. Interestingly, most of the "excessive" combined anteversion appears to be related to increased anteversion of the acetabular component with only 10 patients within the acetabular cup "safe zone" of 5°-25°.

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.
