Background: Total hip arthroplasty involves removal of diseased bone and soft tissue from both femoral and acetabular side and replacing it with mechanical components. It is one of the most successful surgical procedures. It relieves pain and functional disability experienced by patients with moderate to severe osteoarthritis of the hip, improving their quality of life. The success of THA is its ability to relieve the pain, while maintaining both mobility and stability of the joint. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of primary cementless total hip arthroplasty in patients with hip osteoarthritis.Methods: This study was done in a tertiary care teaching hospital. Thirty patients with hip osteoarthritis who were treated with cementless total hip arthroplasty were included in the study. This was a prospective study with a minimum of 12 months follow up (maximum of 25 months). The patients’ pre-operative and post-operative pain and functional status was compared using Harris hip score.Results: Excellent or good pain relief and function was obtained in 83.33% of cases. The mean total pre-operative Harris Hip Score was 32.93 which improved to 88.967 post-operatively. There was a statistically significant improvement in all parameters except absence of deformity. The most common complication was persistent anterior thigh pain that occurred in two patients.Conclusions: Our study suggests that the current generation of cementless implants provide satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes. Though the study was not free of complications, the overall clinical and radiological outcome showed encouraging results.

Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty

Background: Total hip arthroplasty combined with the concept of enhanced recovery is of continued worldwide interest, as it is reported to improve early functional outcome and treatment quality without increasing complications. The aim of the study was to investigate functional outcome and quality of life 4 weeks and 12 months after cementless total hip arthroplasty in combination with an enhanced recovery concept. Methods: A total of 109 patients underwent primary cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) in an enhanced recovery concept and were retrospectively analyzed. After 4 weeks and 12 months, clinical examination was analyzed regarding function, pain and satisfaction; results were evaluated using Harris Hip score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), EQ-5D-5L, EQ-VAS and subjective patient-related outcome measures (PROMs). Preoperatively, HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) was collected. A correlation analysis of age, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), HADS and comorbidities (diabetes mellitus, art. hypertension, cardiovascular disease) with WOMAC, Harris Hip score (HHS) and EQ-5D was performed. Results: Patients showed a significant improvement in Harris Hip score 4 weeks and 12 months postoperatively (p < 0.001). WOMAC total score, subscale pain, subscale stiffness and subscale function improved significantly from preoperative to 12 months postoperative (p < 0.001). EQ-5D showed a significant improvement preoperative to postoperative (p < 0.001). The influence of anxiety or depression (HADS-A or HADS-D) on functional outcome could not be determined. There was a high patient satisfaction postoperatively, and almost 100% of patients would choose enhanced recovery surgery again. Conclusion: Cementless THA with the concept of enhanced recovery improves early clinical function and quality of life. PROMs showed a continuous improvement over a follow-up of 12 months after surgery. PROMs can help patients and surgeons to modify expectations and improve patient satisfaction.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the successful and cost-benefit surgical treatments. One-stage bilateral THA (BTHA) has a large number of advantages, although there are concerns about the higher complications in this procedure. Aim of our study was to evaluate the complications and outcomes of cementless one-stage BTHA in osteoarthritis patients. A total of 147 patients from 2009 till 2012, underwent one-stage BTHA in Milad and Erfan hospitals, Tehran, Iran. A prospective analysis of the functional outcomes and complications of one-stage BTHA through Hardinge approach in patients with osteoarthritis was performed. We evaluated all patients clinically and radiologically with serial followups. A clinical hip score based upon the modified Harris Hip Score (MHHS) was performed preoperatively and again postoperatively. During the period of study 89 men (60.5%) and 58 women (39.4%) with a mean age of 54.67±7.08 years at the time of presentation were recruited. The mean surgical time was 2.8±0.25 hrs. The mean hospital stay was 3.83±0.65 days. Hemoglobin level decreased significantly after operation (P=0.038). There was two deep venous thromboses, one superficial infection and one temporal proneal palsy but no pulmonary embolism, dislocation, periprosthetic fracture or heterotrophic ossification. The mean preoperative MHHS score was 41.64±5.42 in patients. MHHS score improved to 89.26±4.68 in the last followup (P=0.0001). Our results recommended the use of cementless one-stage BTHA through Hardinge approach in patients with bilateral hip osteoarthritis.

Introduction: This prospective study aims to evaluate the mid-term clinical and radiological performance of a new short, neck-preserving femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patients and methods: 178 consecutive patients (190 hips) underwent THA from November 2008 to July 2016. Mean follow-up is 62.4 months. Women make up 41% of the cohort at a mean age of 50 ± 4 years, with primary hip osteoarthritis as the main complaint. All patients underwent radiological evaluation using the modified Gruen method, and clinical assessment via the Harris Hip Score (HHS), preoperatively and at 1, 6, 12, 24, 60, 80 and 106 months post-op. Results: A mean HHS increase (from 50 ± 12 points preoperatively to 96 ± 4 at 62 months), together with painless articular improvement, was present at 6 months postoperatively indicating early functional recovery. Effective osteointegration and primary stability were present on radiographic analysis, without evidence of stress shielding or stem mal-positioning: subsidence amounting to <1 mm was present in 40% of implants immediately after surgery, with subsequent stabilisation within 6 months in all cases. Metaphyseal trabecular re-orientation in absence of symptomatic cortical hypertrophy or progressive radiolucency indicates physiological load transfer in the proximal femur. Stem-related revision surgery was necessary for 1.05% of all implants due to fracture and infection. No loosening, dislocations or mechanical failures were reported. Conclusions: All patients show excellent functional recovery and clinical outcomes at 62 months, demonstrating the role optimal primary stability and physiological joint reconstruction play in ensuring stable secondary fixation and long-term survival of a short, neck-preserving stem.

Background: Despite several studies, controversy has prevailed over the rate of complications following 1-stage and 2-stage bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). In the current study, we compare the complications and functional outcomes of 1-stage and 2-stage procedures. Methods: One hundred and eighty patients (ASA class I or II) with bilateral hip osteoarthritis were assigned randomly to two equal groups. The two groups were matched in terms of age and sex. All of the surgeries were performed via the Hardinge approach using uncemented implants. In 2-stage procedures, surgeries were performed with a 6-month to 1-year interval. All patients were evaluated 1 year postoperatively. Results: The Harris Hip Score (HHS) averaged 84.1 and 82.6 in 1-stage and 2-stage groups, respectively ( p = 0.528). The hospital stay was significantly longer in the 2-stage group (9.8 days vs. 4.9 days). The cumulative haemoglobin drop and the number of transfused blood units were the same. One patient in each group developed symptomatic deep venous thrombosis which was managed successfully. There was no patient with perioperative death, pulmonary embolism, infection, dislocation, periprosthetic fracture or heterotrophic ossification. No patient required reoperation. Two patients in the 1-stage group developed unilateral temporary peroneal nerve palsy, which was resolved after 3–4 months. Conclusion: 1-stage bilateral THA can be used successfully for patients with bilateral hip disease without increasing the rate of complications. Functional and clinical outcomes are comparable and hospital stay is significantly shorter.

Abstract Background: The relationship between spinopelvic alignment and functional disability after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has not been fully elucidated despite the growing recognition of its importance on patient-reported outcome measures. Therefore, our aim was to assess the effect of global sagittal spinal deformity on post-operative disability.Methods: This prospective analysis was based on 208 cases of THA, with functional disability measured at a follow-up of 2 years. The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score-Joint Replacement (HOOS-JR), ranging from a scale of 0 (complete joint disability) to 100 (perfect joint health), was used to divide eligible patients into two groups, namely with and without disability, using a score of 70 as the cut-off. The following factors were compared between the two groups using multivariate analysis: age, sex, body height, body mass index, spinopelvic parameters, and surgeon experience. To identify the cut-off value of the parameters for predicting disability (HOOS-JR <70/100), we used the receiver-operating characteristic curve.Results: The disability (30 hips) and control (178 hips) groups showed a significant difference in pre-operative body height (p = 0.020), T1 pelvic angle divided by pelvic incidence (T1PA/PI; p = 0.018), PI minus lumbar lordosis (p = 0.027), post-operative HOOS-JR (p = 0.010), patient satisfaction (p = 0.033), and the modified Harris Hip Score (p = 0.038). On multivariate analysis, the following factors were associated with persistent disability: T1PA/PI >0.2 (odds ratio [OR], 2.11; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19–4.14; p < 0.001) and height <148 cm equivalent to legal standards as short stature (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.09–1.48; p = 0.011). The cut-off value of pre-operative T1PA/PI was >0.19, with a sensitivity of 95% and specificity of 85%. Post-operative satisfaction (p < 0.001), HOOS-JR (p = 0.023), and EuroQol 5-Dimension (p = 0.041) differed between the two groups when the pre-operative cut-off value was chosen as 0.2.Conclusions: A T1PA/PI >0.2 was associated with greater disability after THA. Clinicians should be aware that patient-related factors, including global spinal deformities, particularly in patients with a short stature, can influence THA outcomes at 2 years postoperatively.

Abstract Background Juvenile hip osteoarthritis is often the end result of congenital conditions or acquired hip ailments occurred during the paediatric age. This study evaluated the middle term results of total hip arthroplasty for end-stage juvenile hip osteoarthritis. Materials and methods This is a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data on a cohort of 10 consecutive patients (12 hips), aged between 14 and 20 at operation, who underwent cementless total hip arthroplasty for end-stage juvenile secondary hip osteoarthritis in two orthopaedic tertiary referral centres between 2009 and 2018. Results Juvenile hip osteoarthritis occurred as a consequence of developmental dysplasia of the hip, Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, femoral head necrosis or slipped capital femoral epiphysis. All patients showed a significant improvement in Harris Hip Score (p < 0.01) at 3.3 years average follow-up (range 0.7–10.1 years). Conclusion The management of juvenile hip osteoarthritis following developmental dysplasia of the hip, Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, femoral head necrosis or slipped capital femoral epiphysis is still challenging. Careful preoperative planning is essential to achieve good outcomes and improve the Harris Hip Score in these young patients. Total hip arthroplasty is a suitable option for end-stage secondary juvenile hip osteoarthritis, when proximal femoral osteotomies and conservative treatments fail to improve patients’ symptoms and quality of life.

Introduction: The aim of this study is to evaluate clinical, radiographic and laboratory results of ceramic-on-metal (CoM) (hybrid hard bearing) in total hip arthroplasty (THA), associated with a short stem implant. Methods: From a cohort of 37 patients suffering from primary or secondary hip osteoarthritis who underwent THA using CoM bearing, 19 were suitable for this study. All procedures were performed by the same surgeon using a posterior-lateral approach. All patients were compared clinically using the Harris Hip Score (HHS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), visual analogue scale (VAS), 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF12F/M), and radiographically (offset, CD angle, limb length discrepancy, cup inclination and anteversion, subsidence, osseointegration, heterotopic ossification). Blood samples were collected in order to evaluate chromium (Cr) and cobalt (Co) ions level. Radiographic evaluations were carried out by 3 different blinded surgeons. A statistical analysis was performed. Results: At a mean follow-up of 97 (73–125) months all implanted stems were well-positioned and osseointegrated. Clear improvements were observed for clinical scores comparing preoperative and postoperative values. Radiographic evaluation showed a good ability to restore proper articular geometry. Cr ion analysis revealed values below the safety threshold except for 1 case. Serum levels of Co were below the threshold in all patients. There was a statistically significant correlation only between Cr metal ions and length of follow-up. Conclusions: CoM bearing has proven to be reliable and safe at a mean 8-year follow-up for patients in whom the components were correctly implanted. The rise of blood metal ions was minimal and involved neither systemic or local toxicity nor influenced clinical results.

Background: Acquired hip deformities in patients affected by hereditary multiple exostosis (HME) may incur in early hip osteoarthritis and functional limitation requiring primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Characteristic coxo-femoral joint dysmorphisms in HME may pose a challenge for the orthopaedic surgeon. Here we report our experience in a series of patients with HME treated in our hospital with THA. Methods: With a mean follow-up of 5 years, 10 primary THAs were reviewed; proximal femur deformities, acetabular dysplasia and joint osteoarthritis has been assessed through x-rays and CT-scan evaluation. In all cases hemispheric press-fit cups were used; 4 stem had metaphyseal engagement, 5 had proximal diaphyseal engagement and 1, with anatomical geometry, had metaphyseal fixation. 2 cases required stem cementation, 3 modular neck and 1 lateralised. The clinical data, complications and clinical outcomes, were recorded and analysed. Results: The mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) increased from 34 preoperative to 86 postoperative; preoperative mean neck shaft angle (NSA) was 150°, head/neck ratio 0.6, offset 31 mm; Wiberg angle 28°, Sharp angle 38°, 1 patient had subluxation grade 4 according to Crowe, 8 hips showed osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade ⩾2 ); 5 femurs were classified as Dorr type C, 2 as type B and 3 as type A. Perioperative complications were not observed. Conclusions: Primary THA in HME significantly improved clinical and functional outcomes. Press-fit cup fixation together with metaphyseal and proximal diaphyseal stem engagement on reliable bone quality femur, represents a valid option in HME patients with normal acetabular morphology, wide broaden neck and valgus NSA.
