AbstractAn oblique double-cut rotation osteotomy (ODCRO) enables correcting a complex bone deformation by aligning, in 3D, the distal, middle and proximal bone segments with a target bone, without intersegmental gaps. We propose virtual preoperative planning of an ODCRO. To minimize a residual translation error, we use an optimization algorithm and optimize towards bone length, alignment in the transverse direction, or a balanced reconstruction. We compare the residual alignment error with an oblique single-cut rotation osteotomy using 15 complex bone deformations. The single-cut approach was not feasible in 5 cases, whereas the ODCRO procedure was feasible in all cases. The residual alignment error was smaller for the ODCRO than for the single-cut approach except for one case. In a subset for length reconstruction, the length error of 7.3–21.3 mm was restored to 0.0 mm in 4 of 5 cases, although at the cost of an increased transverse translation. The proposed method renders planning an ODCRO feasible and helps restoring bone alignment and lengthening better than an oblique single-cut rotation osteotomy. Awareness of the challenges and possibilities in preoperative planning of an ODCRO will be of value for future alignment surgery and for patients.

Abstract Purpose Osteotomies represent well-established treatment-options for the redistribution of loads and forces within and around the knee-joint. Effects of these osteotomies on the remaining planes and adjacent joints are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of a distal-femoral-rotation-osteotomy on the coronal alignment of the ankle. It was hypothesized that supracondylar-external-rotation-osteotomy of the distal femur leads to a change in the coronal orientation of the ankle joint. Methods Long-leg standing radiographs and CT-based torsional measurements of 27 patients undergoing supracondylar-rotational-osteotomy of the femur between 2012 and 2019 were obtained and utilized for the purpose of this study. Postoperative radiographs were obtained after union at the osteotomy-site. The hip-knee-ankle-angle (HKA), the mechanical-lateral-distal-femur-angle (mLDFA), and Tibia-Plafond-Horizontal-Orientation-Angle (TPHA) around the ankle were measured. Comparison between means was performed using the Wilcoxon-Mann–Whitney test. Results Twenty-seven patients with high femoral antetorsion (31.3° ± 4.0°) underwent supracondylar-external-rotation-osteotomy. The osteotomy led to a reduced antetorsion (17.4 ± 5.1; p < 0.001) and to a valgisation of the overall limb-alignment. The HKA decreased by 2.4° ± 1.4° (p < 0.001). The TPHA decreased by 2.6° (p < 0.001). Conclusions Supracondylar external rotation osteotomy of the femur leads to lateralization of the weight bearing line at the knee and ankle due to valgisation of the coronal limb alignment. The mobile subtalar joint has to compensate (inversion) for the resulting valgus orientation of the ankle to ensure contact between the foot and the floor. When planning a rotational osteotomy of the lower limb, this should be appreciated – especially in patients with a preexisting valgus alignment of the lower extremities or restricted mobility in the subtalar joint.

Abstract Decreased femoral anteversion is an often overlooked factor in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), with potential to exacerbate both cam and pincer type impingement, or itself be the primary cause. Femoral de-rotation osteotomy (FDO) is a surgical option for symptomatic patients with such underlying bony deformity. This study aimed to investigate outcomes of FDO for management of symptomatic FAI in the presence of decreased (&lt;5°) femoral anteversion. Secondary aims were to describe the surgical technique and assess complications. This study included 33 cases (29 patients) with average pre-operative anteversion measuring –3.1° (true retroversion). At an average follow-up of 1.5 years (19.8 months), 97% reported significant improvement. The overall average post-operative International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33) score of 70.6 points (r: 23–98) compared to the average pre-operative score of 42.8 points (r: 0–56) for the 11 patients with available pre-operative scores suggests an overall improvement. The minimal clinically important difference for the iHOT-33 is 6.1 points. Patients with both pre- and post-operative iHOT-33 scores available demonstrated a statistically and clinically significant improvement of 37.7 (r: 13–70) points. There were three cases (9%) of delayed union and two cases (6%) of non-union early in the series which prompted evolution of the technique. Locking screw removal was performed in 33% of patients for a resultant overall re-operation rate of 45%. The findings suggest improvement in patient-reported outcomes can be achieved with FDO for symptomatic FAI in the setting of decreased femoral anteversion (&lt;5°).

Abstract Introduction Despite the fact that osteotomies around the knee represent well-established treatment options for the redistribution of loads and forces within and around the knee joint, unforeseen effects of these osteotomies on the remaining planes and adjacent joints are still to be defined. It was, therefore, the aim of this study to determine the influence of a distal femoral rotation osteotomy on the coronal limb alignment and on the ischiofemoral space of the hip joint. Materials and methods Long-leg standing radiographs and CT-based torsional measurements of 27 patients undergoing supracondylar rotational osteotomies of the femur between 2012 and 2019 were obtained and utilized for the purpose of this study. Postoperative radiographs were obtained after union at the osteotomy site. The hip–knee–ankle angle (HKA), the mechanical lateral distal femur angle (mLDFA), and the ischiofemoral space were measured. Comparison between means was performed using the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test. Results Twenty-seven patients underwent isolated supracondylar external rotation osteotomy to reduce the overall antetorsion of the femur. The osteotomy resulted in a 2.4° ± 1.4° mean increase in HKA and 2.4 mm ± 1.7 mm increase in the ischiofemoral space (p < 0.001). Conclusion Supracondylar external rotation osteotomy of the femur leads to valgisation of the coronal limb alignment and increases the ischiofemoral space. This is resultant to the reorientation of the femoral antecurvature and the femoral neck. When planning a rotational osteotomy of the lower limb, this should be appreciated and may also aid in the decision regarding osteotomy site.
