RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The femoral head contralateral to the collapsed femoral head requiring total hip arthroplasty (THA) often manifests in the precollapse stage of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). It is not yet demonstrated how autologous concentrated bone marrow injection may prevent collapse of the femoral head concurrent with contralateral THA. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of autologous concentrated bone marrow injection for the contralateral, non-collapsed, femoral head in patients with bilateral ONFH, with the ipsilateral collapsed femoral head undergoing THA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a multicentre, prospective, non-randomised, historical-data controlled study. We will recruit patients with ONFH who are scheduled for THA and possess a non-collapsed contralateral femoral head. Autologous bone marrow will be collected using a point-of-care device. After concentration, the bone marrow will be injected into the non-collapsed femoral head following the completion of THA in the contralateral hip. The primary outcome is the percentage of femoral head collapse evaluated by an independent data monitoring committee using plain X-rays in two directions 2 years after autologous concentrated bone marrow injection. Postinjection safety, adverse events, pain and hip function will also be assessed. The patients will be evaluated preoperatively, and at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years postoperatively. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This protocol has been approved by the Certified Committee for Regenerative Medicine of Tokyo Medical and Dental University and Japan's Ministry of Healthy, Labour and Welfare and will be performed as a class III regenerative medicine protocol, in accordance with Japan's Act on the Safety of Regenerative Medicine. The results of this study will be submitted to a peer-review journal for publication. The results of this study are expected to provide evidence to support the inclusion of autologous concentrated bone marrow injections in the non-collapsed femoral head in Japan's national insurance coverage. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: jRCTc032200229.

PURPOSE: Although rare, non-metastatic proximal femoral fracture (PFF) can develop in patients with active cancer. However, little data are available regarding the risks and benefits of surgical treatment in such patients. The purpose of his study was to investigate the risks and benefits of surgical treatment of PFF in patients with and without cancer. METHODS: We retrospectively examined the medical records of all patients treated for PFF, excluding those with pathological fracture, at our hospital from July 2013 to December 2020. The patients were divided into two groups; The active cancer group and the standard group. We investigated in both groups about surgical and medical complications during the perioperative period, walking ability two weeks postoperatively, and one-year postoperative mortality rate. RESULT: After the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 39 patients in the active cancer group and 331 patients in the standard group were finally investigated. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. The complication rate did not appear statistical significance between two groups (16.7% in active cancer group vs 10.7% in standard group: p = 0.272). Walking ability was also similar in two groups. Mortality rate at one year was significantly higher in the active cancer group. (41.2% in active cancer group vs 6.0% in standard group: p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Although the active cancer group had a higher mortality rate at one year, which was influenced by the prognosis of the cancer, the benefits of surgical intervention, such as regaining walking ability, were the same in patients with and without active cancer.
