OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical effect of total hip replacement (THA) in the treatment of traumatic arthritis secondary to acetabular fracture.@*METHODS@#From October 2019 to June 2022, 15 patients with secondary traumatic arthritis of acetabulum fracture were treated with THA. There were 8 males and 7 females, aged from 40 to 76 years old with an average of (59.20±9.46) years old. Prosthesis loosening, dislocation of hip joint, range of motion of hip joint, nerve injury and other conditions were recorded before and after surgery. Harris score, visual analogue scale (VAS) and imaging were used to evaluate hip joint function and surgical effect.@*RESULTS@#Follow-up time ranged 6 to 39 months with an average of (18.33±9.27) months. All the 15 patients successfully completed the operation, no nerve and blood vessel injury during the operation, postoperative wound healing was stageⅠ, no infection, one case of acetabular side prosthesis loosening at half a year after operation, and recovered well after revision surgery, one case of hip dislocation was cured after open reduction treatment, no adverse consequences. Harris score at the last postoperative follow-up was (88.60±4.01) points, compared with the preoperative (47.20±11.77) points, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), and VAS at the lateat postoperative follow-up was 1 (1) points, compared with the preoperative 8 (2) points, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the pain symptoms were relieved or disappeared, and the joint function was satisfactory. The imaging data of the latest follow-up showed joint was well pseudoradiated, no abnormal ossification occurred, and the prosthesis was not loose.@*CONCLUSION@#THA is effective in the treatment of traumatic arthritis secondary to acetabular fracture and can effectively improve the quality of life of patients. Preoperative comprehensive evaluation and bone defect evaluation of patients, and intraoperative management of acetabulum, femur, internal fixation and bone defect are key factors for the success of surgery.

Hip firearm injuries are rare injuries that could lead to serious complications, such as posttraumatic hip arthritis and coloarticular fistula. We report a case of a 25-year-old male who sustained a pelvic injury caused by a single bullet which led to a bilateral acetabular fracture, concomitant with a colon injury treated on an emergency basis by a diverting colostomy; acetabular fractures were treated conservatively by traction. After the patient recovered from the abdominal injury, he was presented with bilateral hip pain and limited motion; plain radiographs showed bilateral hip arthritis with proximal migration of the femoral head and bilateral acetabular defect classified as Paprosky type ⅢA. Reconstruction of the hips was performed using the same technique: impaction bone grafting for acetabular defect reconstruction and a reversed hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) 6 months apart. The patient presented with loosening of the left THA acetabular cup 3 years later, which was revised; then he presented with a discharging sinus from the left THA with suspicion of coloarticular fistula, which was confirmed using CT with contrast material. A temporary colostomy and fistula excision were performed, and a cement spacer was applied to the hip. After clearing the infection, a final revision THA for the left hip was performed. Treating post-firearm hip arthritis by THA is challenging, especially in the situation of neglected cases with the presence of an acetabular defect. Concomitant intestinal injury increases the risk of infection with the possibility of coloarticular fistula formation, which could present later. Working with a multidisciplinary team is paramount.

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the effect of uncemented total hip arthroplasty(THA) on treatment of traumatic arthritis caused by intramedullary nailing interfixation of intertrochanteric fractures.@*METHODS@#Total of 22 patients treated with THA due to traumatic arthritis caused by intramedullary nailing interfixation of intertrochanteric fractures from January 2012 to January 2017 were studied retrospectively, including 10 males and 12 females with a mean age of (72.5±9.8) years old ranging from 61 to 84 years old. Initial internal fixation method:14 patients were treated with Gamma nails and 8 patients were treated wit PFNA.The time from internal fixation surgery to THA was 10 to 68 months with an average of (32.2±21.3) months.Harris scores of the hip joint before and after surgery were compared, and the position of the prosthesis through postoperative imaging at 3, 6, 12 months and the last follow-up were evaluated.@*RESULTS@#One patient was died due to heart failure 1 year after operation. Two patients was died to advanced tumor 2 years after operation. The other 19 patients were followed up for 36 to 64 months with an average of (48.5±11.9) months. At final follow up, 14 patients regained the ability to walk independently, 4 patients needed support of a cane, 1 patient needed assistance of a walker. No serious complications such as joint dislocation, periprosthetic fracture and deep venous thrombosis occurred during follow-up. There were no signs of loosening and subsidence of the prosthesis at the final follow-up. Mean Harris hip score increased from (29.2±12.9) points preoperatively to (74.2±11.2) points at the final follow up(P<0.05);the score was excellent in 9 patients, good in 7 and fair in 3.@*CONCLUSION@#Uncemented total hip arthroplasty for traumatic arthritis after intramedullary nail fixation of femoral intertrochanteric fracture can significantly improve hip function and effectively avoid bone cement implantation syndrome. The medium-term effect is satisfactory.

Ankle arthritis affects approximately 1% of the adult population worldwide and represents a serious global disease burden. However, compared with hip arthritis and knee arthritis, the clinical understanding and treatment of ankle arthritis are still in their infancy. For end-stage ankle arthritis, ankle arthrodesis was considered as the "gold standard" in the past. However, ankle arthrodesis will result in loss of joint mobility, altered gait, limited daily activities, and accelerated degeneration of adjacent joints. Therefore, how to preserve the range of motion of the ankle joint while relieving pain is the key to the treatment of ankle arthritis. Currently, the surgical treatment of ankle arthritis includes arthroscopic debridement, periarticular osteotomies, osteochondral transplantation, ankle distraction arthroplasty, ankle arthrodesis, and total ankle arthroplasty. The choice of treatment should be individualized and based on various factors such as the patient's symptoms, signs, imaging performance, complaints, and financial situation. However, there are no guidelines that give clear treatment recommendations. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct extensive and in-depth discussions on the diagnosis and treatment of ankle arthritis.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the short-term effectiveness of INBONE TM Ⅱ total ankle prosthesis arthroplasty in the treatment of moderate to severe varus-type ankle arthritis.@*METHODS@#The clinical and radiographic data of patients with moderate to severe varus-type ankle arthritis, who were admitted between May 2017 and November 2021 and treated with total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) using INBONE TM Ⅱ prosthesis, was retrospectively analyzed. A total of 58 patients (58 ankles) met the selection criteria and were included in the study. Among them, there were 24 males and 34 females, with an average age of 62.6 years (range, 41-85 years). According to the preoperative tibiotalar angle (TTA), the patients were divided into a moderate varus group (group A, TTA 5°-15°, n=34) and a severe varus group (group B, TTA>15°, n=24). There was no significant difference in gender, side, etiology, preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, ankle dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, and total range of motion, and tibial lateral surface angle (TLS) between the two groups ( P>0.05). Yet the patients in group A were younger than group B, the degrees of oesteoarthritis (Takakura stage) and ankle pain [visual analogue scale (VAS) score] were milder, and the TTA, talar tilt angle (TT), hindfoot alignment angle (HAA) were smaller while the tibial articular surface angle (TAS) was larger, showing significant differences ( P<0.05). The pre- and post-operative VAS score, AOFAS score, the occurrence of early and late complications, the radiographic parameters of the ankle (TTA, TAS, TT, HAA, TLS), ankle dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, and total range of motion were recorded and compared.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up 19-72 months, with an average of 38.9 months. Compared with the preoperative data, the VAS score of all patients significantly decreased ( P<0.05); the AOFAS score, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, and total range of motion significantly increased ( P<0.05); and the TTA, TAS, TT, HAA, and TLS significantly improved at last follow-up ( P<0.05); but there was no significant difference in plantarflexion range of motion ( P>0.05). Early complications occurred in 13 patients, and only 1 patient underwent revision surgery due to a larger size of the talar component. At last follow-up, there was no significant difference in the difference of clinical parameters before and after operation between the two groups ( P>0.05); there was a significant difference in the difference of other radiographic parameters ( P<0.05) except TLS. No significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups was found ( P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#TAA using the INBONE TM Ⅱtotal ankle prosthesis is an effective treatment for moderate or severe varus-type ankle arthritis, and good clinical and radiographic results can be obtained. Correcting bony deformities and balancing soft tissue are the keys to successful surgery.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy of intramedullary K-wire fixation and interosseous wiring in the arthrodesis of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint with description of surgical procedure. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 9 cases (7 women and 2 men) of DIP joint arthrodesis. The average age of patients was 44.2 years (range, 21 to 71 years) and the mean follow-up period was 19.6 months. Joint union was evaluated on the follow-up radiographs together with postoperative complications. RESULTS: All cases achieved radiologic union of the arthrodesis site. There was no surgical complication except for one case of skin irritation by the interosseous wire knot which was removed during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: Intramedullary K-wire fixation and interosseous wiring could be an alternative procedure of arthrodesis in the DIP joint.

BACKGROUND: Management of the patella during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is controversial. Multiple studies have examined mechanical and clinical results of TKA with native and resurfaced patellae with no clear consensus. METHODS: We surveyed a large cohort of consultant surgeons in a questionnaire based study in order to assess the indications for patella resurfacing and to correlate practice with degree of specialization, experience and volume of procedures performed. RESULTS: Six hundred and nineteen surgeons were included. The main indication for patella resurfacing was patellofemoral arthritis. The ratio of those who always:sometimes:never resurfaced was 1:2:1 irrespective of experience or volume performed. There was no difference between knee specialists and non-specialists (p = 0.977) or between high and lower volume surgeons (p = 0.826). Senior and high volume surgeons tended to always resurface. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of surgeons only sometimes resurfaced the patella. The number who always and never resurfaced were similar. There was a tendency for more experienced and high volume surgeons to always resurface.

We systematically reviewed the literature on the infectious risk in patients treated with tumour necrosis factor blocking agents (TNF-BA) undergoing surgery: we searched the Medline (PubMed) and the online archive from the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology and the Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Rheumatology. Of total 1259 reports, 14 were finally analysed. With one exception all were retrospective. Four of 6 studies compared patients on TNF-BA with those not receiving TNF-BA, and found an increased risk of infection with the use of TNF-BA. None of the other studies which compared continued with discontinued treatment at surgery found an increased risk of infection, when the medication was continued perioperatively. In conclusion, while in theory there is an increased risk of infections when TNF-BA are administered perioperatively, the available literature does not necessarily support this. It rather appears that patients receiving TNF-BA are a priori at a higher risk of postoperative infections. Scheduling surgery at the end of the drug interval and adding one "safety" week prior to surgery should be an acceptable plan in daily clinical practice.

PURPOSE: Sacroiliac fixation using iliac screws for highly unstable lumbar spine has been reported with an improved fusion rate and clinical results. On the other hand, there is a potential for clinical problems related to iliac fixation, including late sacroiliac joint arthritis and pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty patients were evaluated. Degenerative scoliosis was diagnosed in 7 patients, failed back syndrome in 6 patients, destructive spondyloarthropathy in 4 patients, and Charcot spine in 3 patients. All patients underwent posterolateral fusion surgery incorporating lumbar, S1 and iliac screws. We evaluated the pain scores, bone union, and degeneration of sacroiliac joints by X-ray imaging and computed tomography before and 3 years after surgery. For evaluation of low back and buttock pain from sacroiliac joints 3 years after surgery, lidocaine was administered in order to examine pain relief thereafter. RESULTS: Pain scores significantly improved after surgery. All patients showed bone union at final follow-up. Degeneration of sacroiliac joints was not seen in the 20 patients 3 years after surgery. Patients showed slight low back and buttock pain 3 years after surgery. However, not all patients showed relief of the low back and buttock pain after injection of lidocaine into the sacroiliac joint, indicating that their pain did not originate from sacroiliac joints. CONCLUSION: The fusion rate and clinical results were excellent. Also, degeneration and pain from sacroiliac joints were not seen within 3 years after surgery. We recommend sacroiliac fixation using iliac screws for highly unstable lumbar spine.

The acromioclavicular [AC] joint arthritis is a common and sometimes under-looked source of shoulder problems. The procedure of subacromial decompression with distal clavicular end resection [either open or arthroscopic] was the usual treatment proposed. With the increasing popular usage of this technique, some failure rates were reported after either open or arthroscopic techniques. This was attributed to Inadequate resection, or partial ACJ instability due to injury or resection of the superior ligament during the ACJ resection, and underlying muscle injury due to lack of experience or difficult portals handling. Our Aim was to assess the results of arthoscopic management of A.C.J arthritis, by distal clavicle resection using a modified arthroscopic portals and technique. Thirty two patients were managed arthroscopicaly, after proper diagnosis of A.C arthritis. A modified arthroscopic approach through anterior working portal -instead of the classical anterosuperior portal-and posterior viewing portal were used with the resection of acromial side [osteophytes] preceding the clavicular side instead of resection the clavicular side directly. This approach brings better handling of the joint and easier in preserving the superior AC ligament as widening of the ACJ is less than 1.5cm from both acromial and clavicular ends. All patients were followed up for six months using the UCLA shoulder scale in analysis of the results. This modified approach proved successful results, and comparable with the classical anterosuperior, and posterosuperior approach, showed earlier recovery. In this series 90.6% of patients showed excellent results after an average of 3.7 months, while 6.4% of patients showed good results, and only 3% showed poor results. The Meticulous preoperative evaluation, and this modified approach using the anterior portal instead of the classical anterosuperior one, with the resection of less than 1.5cm of the clavicle, preserve the superior A.C ligament, and consequent the horizontal stability of the joint. Moreover the adequate subacromial decompression that may accomplish the procedure could be easier and better. Both- viewing and working at the joint using the modified portals decreased the long learning curve, and achieved better final results

Degenerative glenohumeral arthritis is a possible complication after traumatic glenohumeral dislocation. Shoulder surface replacement arthroplasty has been established for several decades as a mean to restore comfort and function of the shoulder for many afflictions that derange the normal anatomy. The surface replacement may offer some advantages over the stemmed prostheses. We encountered a case with glenohumeral arthritis following neglected fracture dislocation of the shoulder. Copeland cementless surface replacement together with glenoid levelling was done. Six months postoperatively the constant score was markedly improved [82 points]. The patient showed complete relief of pain with marked improvement of the range of movement of the shoulder. The early results in this patient with the use of Copeland cementless surface replacement for treatment of posttraumatic glenohumeral arthritis together with levelling of the glenoid surface were encouraging. The levelling of the glenoid facilitates the smooth gliding of the prosthesis which in turn improves the range of motion and avoids the replacement of the glenoid with its high risk of future loosening. More cases with longer follow-up to document these findings are necessary

Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo, descriptivo, observacional en pacientes a quienes se les colocó una prótesis total de cadera no cementada, con el sistema CLS, durante el periodo comprendido de noviembre de 1991 a diciembre de 1996. Se aplicó un protocolo de acuerdo con los parámetros del Dr. Spotorno. Se administraron antibióticos profilácticos y terapia antiembólica. Se operó siguiendo en forma estricta la técnica sugerida por la casa comercial. Se colocaron un total de 48 protesis totales primarias con el sistema CLS, se excluyeron los casos en que este implante se colocó en revisiones, en dos casos la prótesis se colocó en forma bilateral. La indicación más frecuente fue la artrosis. Se permitió apoyar la extremidad operada hasta las 6 semanas siguientes a la cirugía en los casos que no presentaron complicaciones. Se revisaron los expedientes clínicos y radiográficos, así como a los pacientes operados. En 8 casos se presentaron fisuras estables en la región del calcar, sólo 6 casos presentaron líneas radiolúcidas a nivel acetabular, 16 por ciento de los fémures presentaron líneas radiolúcidas a nivel del hombro de la prótesis. En dos casos se presentó dolor en la cara anterior del muslo durante más de tres meses. La movilidad y la funcionalidad de la cadera operada mejoraron en el 100 por ciento de los casos. El sistema de prótesis de cadera no cementada CLS Spotorno es un buen sistema en reemplazos de cadera primarios, requisito es que el cótilo sea esférico o tenga poca deformidad, como en el resto de las prótesis no cementadas, se debe de realizar una selección cuidadosa en pacientes con adecuado stock óseo
