Background and Objectives: Few studies have investigated the socioeconomic factors associated with retear after rotator cuff repair. This study aimed to identify the risk factors, including socioeconomic factors, for rotator cuff retear in patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 723 patients diagnosed with full-thickness rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair from March 2010 to March 2021. The outcome variable was rotator cuff retear observed on postoperative magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasonography. Sex, age, obesity, diabetes, symptom duration, and tear size were the independent variables. Socioeconomic variables included occupation, educational level, type of medical insurance, and area of residence. We compared patients with and without retear and estimated the effects of the independent factors on retear risk. Results: The mean age of the patients, symptom duration, and tear size were 62.4 ± 8.0 years, 1.8 ± 1.7 years, and 21.8 ± 12.5 mm, respectively. The age, type of medical insurance, diabetes, tear size, and symptom duration differed significantly between patients with and without retearing (p < 0.05). Age, occupation, type of medical insurance, diabetes, initial tear size, and symptom duration significantly affected the risk of retear. Patients who performed manual labor had a significantly higher retear rate (p = 0.005; OR, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.23-3.11). The highest retear risk was seen in patients with Medicaid insurance (p < 0.001; OR, 4.34; 95% CI, 2.09-9.02). Conclusions: Age, initial tear size, and symptom duration significantly affect retear risk after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Occupation and type of medical insurance were also risk factors for retear. Socioeconomically vulnerable patients may be at a greater risk of retear. Proactive efforts are required to expand early access to medical care.

BACKGROUND: Medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) is performed to treat young adults with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis associated with varus deformity. However, factors influencing joint space width (JSW) vary according to the type of medial meniscal tear and have not yet been completely elucidated. PURPOSE: To examine changes in JSW according to the type of medial meniscal tear after MOWHTO and analyze the influencing factors. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: This study was conducted on 134 patients who underwent MOWHTO for medial osteoarthritis and were followed up for >2 years. The patients were classified into 3 groups based on medial meniscal status: intact, nonroot tear, and root tear. The authors then measured the JSW preoperatively and at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and >2 years postoperatively; analyzed whether the change in JSW varied according to meniscal status; and determined the association of these changes with the preoperative cartilage grade of the medial femoral condyle (MFC) and medial tibial plateau (MTP). International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scores were used to evaluate clinical function. RESULTS: Of the 134 patients, the medial meniscus was intact in 29 patients, a nonroot tear was observed in 58 patients, and a root tear was observed in 47 patients. Postoperatively, JSW increased for all groups, but the timing of the increase varied between the groups (P < .001). JSW increased the most 6 months postoperatively in the intact group and 3 months postoperatively in the nonroot tear and root tear groups (P < .001). Additionally, the increase in JSW was the greatest in the root tear group. Preoperatively, MFC and MTP cartilage status differed among the groups; MTP status did not affect the JSW, but MFC status did (P < .001). The IKDC score increased from the preoperative to postoperative time point in all groups, but there was no significant difference between groups. CONCLUSION: The authors observed that the amount and timing of increase in JSW were dependent on the pattern of medial meniscal tear observed when MOWHTO was performed. In addition, the cartilage grade of MFC before surgery was associated with changes in JSW. The IKDC score was not significantly different between groups. However, a longer follow-up period is needed to analyze the correlation with the meniscal tear pattern and JSW.

RÉSUMÉ
Total hip replacement arthroplasty (THA) in hip dysplasia patients has a higher dislocation rate than in patients with simple hip osteoarthritis due to anatomical deformation. Therefore, to reduce postoperative THA dislocation is the challenge for arthroplasty surgeons. From 2015 to 2020, 1525 patients underwent THA performed by two surgeons at a single institution. A total of 152 patients involving 172 THAs were included. The patients were classified into dual-mobility (DM) and fixed-bearing (FB) acetabular cup groups. The occurrence of postoperative dislocation and functional evaluation of the hip joint, was analyzed before and after surgery using the modified Harris hip score(mHHS). There was no difference in the preoperative demographics and radiographic parameters between the groups. The incidence of postoperative hip dislocation was significantly lower in the DM group (DM 0% vs. FB 9.0%) (P value = 0.003). The mHHS showed no difference before surgery and after surgery (DM 91.80 vs FB 92.03). Treating hip dysplasia patients with THA using a dual-mobility acetabular cup can reduce postoperative dislocations, and could be used for the better management of these patients.

The use of a large femoral head in total hip arthroplasty (THA) to stabilize and reduce the incidence of dislocation is on the increase, but concerns arise when combining them with small acetabular components due to potential mechanical failures in thin polyethylene (PE) liners. A single-institution, retrospective cohort study was conducted on 116 patients with minimum 2-year follow-up who received 36-mm femoral heads and acetabular components ≤ 52 mm, using either remelted highly cross-linked polyethylene (remelted HXLPE) or vitamin E-infused HXLPE (VEPE). Osteolysis and implant loosening were not observed in either group. Although a fracture of the PE liner was observed in each group (1.7%), the clinical outcomes were excellent, as the mean modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) at the last follow-up was 93.5. Moreover, the mean linear wear rates measured by digital imaging software in both groups were low, with 0.035 mm/y in remelted HXLPE and 0.030 mm/y in VEPE. In conclusion, The use of a large femoral head on a thin PE liner can be a viable treatment option in patients who need to prioritize stability; however, careful attention should be paid to mechanical fractures of the PE liner.

Background: This study investigated the results of component asymmetry (CA) in bilateral cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: This study included 300 patients, who underwent bilateral cementless THA between April 2000 and December 2017. They were divided into the component symmetry (CS) and CA groups; CA group was sub-classified into acetabular component asymmetry (ACA) and femoral component asymmetry (FCA). Radiologic and clinical outcomes of the CA group were compared with those of the CS group. Results: The incidence of CA was 25.7% (77/300 patients), including 55 patients with ACA, 34 patients with FCA, and 12 with both components asymmetric. The mean time interval between operations in the CA group was significantly longer than that in the CS group (p < 0.001). The mean differences in horizontal and vertical distances from teardrop to the center of rotation of the acetabular component between both hips in the ACA group were significantly larger than those in the CS group (p = 0.033 and p < 0.001, respectively). The mean femoral component alignment angle difference between both hips was significantly larger in the FCA group than in the CS group (p < 0.001). The mean Harris Hip Score at last follow-up of the CA group was similar to that of the CS group. Conclusions: CA in patients undergoing bilateral cementless THA was not rare, especially with a longer time interval between operations. Regardless of CA, when stable fixation of the components was achieved, satisfactory radiologic and clinical outcomes were obtained.

An increasing number of chronic renal failure patients are experiencing hip joint disorders. This study aimed to analyze the outcomes of hip arthroplasty in chronic renal failure patients undergoing dialysis. Of 2364 hips that underwent hip arthroplasty during 2003-2017, 37 were retrospectively examined. Radiological and clinical outcomes of hip arthroplasty, and development of local and general complications during follow-up and their associations with dialysis duration were analyzed. The mean patient age, follow-up duration, and bone mineral density T-score were 60.6 years, 36.6 months, and - 2.62, respectively. Osteoporosis was noted in 20 cases. Most patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty with a cementless acetabular cup implant exhibited excellent radiological outcomes. There were no changes in femoral stem alignment, subsidence, osteolysis, and loosening. Thirty-three patients had an excellent or good Harris hip score. Complications developed in 18 patients within 1 year postoperatively. General complications developed in 12 patients at > 1 year postoperatively; no patient experienced local complications. In conclusion, hip arthroplasty for chronic renal failure patients on dialysis yielded excellent radiological and satisfactory clinical outcomes but may be associated with postoperative complications. Careful preoperative treatment planning and overall postoperative management are required to reduce the complication risk.

BACKGROUND: -Establishing the ideal indications for conservative treatment for elderly patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fractures is difficult because few studies have identified predictive factors for the failure of this treatment method. This study aimed to report the outcomes of conservative treatment for elderly patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fractures and determine risk factors that lead to treatment failure. METHODS: -From January 2009 to December 2018, 206 patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fracture were identified at two institutions. Elderly patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fractures corresponding to an Orthopedic Trauma Association/AO Foundation (OTA/AO) classification of 31-B1.1 or 31-B1.2 who were treated conservatively were included in the study. The following data was collected to compare the preoperative characteristics of patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fractures: age, sex, bone mineral density, medical comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, arrhythmia, chronic kidney disease [CKD], and stroke), medial cortex displacement, valgus angle, posterior tilt, and retroversion. These data were used to assess the independent predictors for failure of conservative treatment using multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: -The failure rate after conservative treatment for valgus impacted femoral neck fracture in the enrolled patient group was 27.3% (15 of 55). CKD, presence of medial cortex displacement, high posterior tilt, and high retroversion were all identified as independent predictors for failure. The cut-off values for retroversion and posterior tilt that predicted treatment failure were 12.5° (area under curve [AUC] 0.768, p = 0.002, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.632-0.903, sensitivity 0.733, 1-specificity 0.300) and 7.5° (AUC 0.712, p = 0.016, 95% CI 0.542- 0.881, sensitivity 0.667, 1-specificity 0.325), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: -The present study showed that a high union rate could be obtained if the indications for conservative treatment in for elderly patients with valgus impacted femoral neck fractures are well-defined. Thus, we believe that conservative treatment can be a viable option for valgus impacted femoral neck fractures when elderly patients with high-risk comorbidities have acceptable fracture angulation, no medial cortex displacement, and no CKD. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: -Level III, retrospective cohort study.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the serial changes in the joint space width (JSW) of the medial and lateral compartments after medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) and its associated factors. METHODS: The medial and lateral weight-bearing JSWs were measured on serial radiographs and analyzed preoperatively and postoperatively within 2 weeks, as well as at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. Associations between the medial and lateral JSWs and age, body mass index, mechanical axis, correction angle, lateral distal femoral angle, medial proximal tibial angle, joint line convergence angle (JLCA), JLCA on stress radiographs, and arthroscopic cartilage status were examined. Clinical outcome was measured according to the Knee Society objective and functional scores. RESULTS: Seventy-one patients who underwent MOWHTO with locking-plate fixation were analyzed. The respective mean medial and lateral JSWs on serial radiographs were as follows: 3.08 mm and 5.14 mm preoperatively, 3.10 mm and 4.63 mm postoperatively, 3.37 mm and 4.57 mm at 3 months, 3.40 mm and 4.59 mm at 6 months, 3.44 mm and 4.57 mm at 1 year, and 3.42 mm and 4.64 mm at 2 years. At 3 months, the medial JSW increased (P < .001), whereas the lateral JSW decreased immediately (P < .001). JSW showed no significant differences at other time points. Preoperative and postoperative JLCAs and medial femoral and tibial cartilage grades were associated with medial JSW changes (P = .021). However, no significant parameters were associated with decreases in the lateral JSW (P > .05). The postoperative Knee Society objective and functional scores improved and were maintained. CONCLUSIONS: After MOWHTO, the medial JSW increased at 3 months postoperatively and the lateral JSW decreased immediately. The preoperative and postoperative JLCAs and the medial femoral and tibial cartilage grades were associated with the change in the medial JSW. However, no significant parameters were associated with the decrease in the lateral JSW. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case series of therapeutic study.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the follow-up results of bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) for more than 10 years in patients aged < 60 years and to analyze the risk factors for acetabular erosion after BHA. METHODS: This retrospective study included 114 patients who underwent BHA were followed-up for at least 10 years. The mean age was 54.1 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 13.8 years. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of acetabular erosion, and the preoperative parameters were compared between the two groups. Moreover, the risk factors related to acetabular erosion after BHA were analyzed using statistical comparisons. RESULTS: Reoperation was performed in 44 of the 114 patients (38.6 %). The survival rate when the end point was reoperation related to acetabular erosion was found to be significantly time-dependent: 73.2 % at 5 years, 48.8 % at 10 years, and 25.9 % at 15 years. The acetabular erosion group showed significantly younger age at the time of surgery, higher body mass index (BMI), more avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and smaller prosthetic femoral head. The final multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that young age at the time of surgery were independent risk factors for acetabular erosion after BHA in patients aged < 60 years. CONCLUSIONS: The minimum 10-year follow-up outcomes of BHA in patients aged < 60 years showed a relatively high conversion rate to total hip arthroplasty. When considering BHA in younger patients, more careful decisions should be made with respect to patient's choice, keeping in mind that long-term survival cannot be guaranteed.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have reported further reduction in joint space width (JSW) after meniscal allograft transplantation; some contributing postoperative factors are known, although preoperative factors remain unclear. This study is the first to analyze the preoperative risk factors for reduced JSW in patients after lateral meniscal allograft transplantation (LMAT). HYPOTHESIS: Poor cartilage status and high preoperative body mass index (BMI) influence the postoperative progression of joint space narrowing. STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We retrospectively studied 79 patients after LMAT who were observed for at least 5 years. JSWs on weightbearing flexion posteroanterior radiographs were measured preoperatively and at the 5-year mark. Differences in JSW were divided into more progression and less progression groups. The modified Outerbridge cartilage grades based on magnetic resonance imaging assessments were compared at subtotal/total meniscectomy and at LMAT to determine the difference between time points. Preoperative between-group differences in sex, age, surgical side, follow-up period, weight, height, BMI, and meniscal deficiency period were analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Lysholm score. Data were examined using univariate and multivariate logistic regressions. RESULTS: Radiographically, the overall change in JSW from preoperative to follow-up was 0.58 mm (range, -0.23 to 1.83 mm). Reductions in JSW in the more progression and less progression groups were 0.94 ± 0.32 and 0.22 ± 0.21 mm (mean ± SD), respectively. There was no difference in cartilage status between the groups at meniscectomy or LMAT; however, changes between time points were significant on the lateral femoral condyle and lateral tibial plateau. Clinically, there were significant differences in weight, BMI, and meniscal deficiency period between the 2 groups. Postoperative Lysholm scores increased as compared with the preoperative scores, but there was no difference among the postoperative time points. In the univariate logistic regression risk analysis, weight, BMI, meniscal deficiency period, and the difference in cartilage status between time points for the lateral femoral condyle and lateral tibial plateau were identified as significant. In the subsequent multivariate logistic regression, BMI (odds ratio, 1.45; P = .016) and meniscal deficiency period (odds ratio, 1.21; P = .037) were the statistically significant factors. CONCLUSION: BMI and meniscal deficiency period were preoperative risk factors for JSW narrowing after LMAT. This suggests that the meniscal deficiency period from meniscectomy to LMAT may be shortened and that proper weight management can lead to successful LMAT.

RATIONALE: In general, in the case of an intertrochanteric hip fracture, surgery is performed using a fracture table and by fixing the patient's foot to the boot piece. In patients with amputation of the affected lower limb, it is impossible to fix the foot to the boot piece; therefore, the traction and rotation of the fracture site cannot be maintained, leading to improper patient positioning. In such cases, a fracture table cannot be used intraoperatively to stabilize the fracture site. We report 2 cases of successful intertrochanteric fracture reduction using a fracture table for patients with below- or above-knee amputation. PATIENTS CONCERNS: Both patients presented with left hip pain resulting from a fall. DIAGNOSIS: Two elderly male patients with prior limb amputations below or above the knee presented with intertrochanteric hip fractures. Previous amputation of the lower limb on the same side of the fracture made it difficult to use a fracture table intraoperatively to stabilize the fracture site. INTERVENTION: We performed fracture reduction using a modified fracture table for each patient. By altering the rotation of the boot piece and using additional skin traction bands, we could maintain proper patient positioning and rotation direction and obtain sufficient traction force. OUTCOMES: The chosen outcomes were fracture alignment and union at the end of follow-up and the ability to walk and perform activities of daily living. Reduction and intramedullary nail fixation using the fracture table were successful in both cases. Appropriate fracture union was achieved within 6âmonths, and the preoperative walking ability and activities of daily living were recovered in both patients, who were followed-up for 28 and 24âmonths. LESSONS: Modification of the usual fracture table to suit patients with lower limb amputation helped us successfully perform intertrochanteric hip fracture surgery with the usual levels of traction and rotation required of the fracture site.

BACKGROUND: Although highly positive results for wear reduction of highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) have been reported around the 10-year follow-up, the long-term result related to reoperation and wear-related survival is still an issue. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the follow-up results of a single manufacture's polyethylene liner for >15 years in terms of survival and wear rate. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 134 primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs) who were followed up for at least 15 years. The mean age at the time of surgery was 50.7 years (conventional polyethylene [CPE] group = 22; HXLPE group = 112). Linear and volumetric wear rates of polyethylene were measured, and the reoperation rate and radiographic osteolysis were evaluated and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed in both groups. Implant-related complications were also examined. RESULTS: HXLPE group showed a significantly lower wear rate in both linear and volumetric wear. None of the hip radiographs showed evidence of loosening or osteolysis in the HXLPE group. The survival rates at 15- to 18-year follow-up were 90.9% and 95.5% in the CPE and HXLPE groups when all-cause reoperation was the endpoint, and 90.9% and 100.0% when the wear-related reoperation was the endpoint, respectively. Implant-related complications were not different between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Wear reduction and osteolysis showed a great advantage in HXLPE after a 15-year follow-up. Although the CPE and HXLPE showed excellent survival, wear and osteolysis were more frequent in the CPE; therefore, the high risk of reoperation in the future should be considered.

PURPOSE: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an available surgical option for failed acetabular fracture, previously managed by open reduction and internal fixation. This study aimed to report the postoperative outcomes of cementless THA in patients with this condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between November 2000 and September 2016, 25 consecutive cementless THAs for failed internal fixation after acetabular fractures with a minimum follow-up of 2 years were analyzed. The mean age at the time of surgery was 58 years (36-85 years), and the time elapsed between fracture and THA was 70 months (7-213 months). Clinical and radiologic evaluations were performed on all patients. RESULTS: Clinically, the mean Harris hip score at the last follow-up was 88 points. Walking ability recovered to pre-injury status in 92% patients, and activities of daily living recovered in 96% patients. Radiographically, none of the acetabular cups showed evidence of migration and loosening during the mean follow-up of 50 months. All cases showed stable femoral stem fixation at the last follow-up. Dislocation occurred in three cases (12%). CONCLUSION: Outcomes of cementless THA after failed internal fixation for acetabular fractures were satisfactory. However, a relatively high incidence of postoperative dislocation is still a concern.

The incidence of hip fractures is rapidly increasing with an aging population and is now one of the most important health concerns worldwide due to a high mortality rate. The effect of delayed surgery on postoperative outcomes has been widely discussed. Although various treatment guidelines for hip fractures in the elderly exist, most institutions recommend that operations are conducted as soon as possible to help achieve the most favorable outcomes. While opinions differ on the relationship between delayed surgery and postoperative mortality, a strong association between earlier surgery and improvement in postoperative outcomes (e.g., length of hospital stay, bedsore occurrence, return to an independent lifestyle), has been reported. Taken together, performing operations for hip fractures in the elderly within 48 hours of admission appears to be best practice. Importantly, however, existing evidence is based primarily on observational studies which are susceptible to inherent bias. Here, we share the results of a literature search to summarize data that helps inform the most appropriate surgical timing for hip fractures in the elderly and the effects of delayed surgery on postoperative outcome. In addition, we expect to be able to provide a more accurate basis for these correlations through a large-scale randomized controlled trial in the future and to present data supporting recommendations for appropriate surgical timing.
RÉSUMÉ
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to identify the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with osteoporotic hip fractures, investigate the anthropometric differences between sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic patients, and evaluate and compare the surgical outcomes between the two groups. METHODS: The study included 135 patients (35 men and 100 women; mean age: 74.1 years (range; 25-96)) who received surgical treatment for hip fracture between March 2014 and October 2016 and underwent whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) for diagnosis of sarcopenia was measured using whole-body DEXA. The following data were collected to compare the preoperative details of the sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic groups: SMI, age, sex, type of fracture, type of operation, BMI, obesity, American society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class, pre-injury mobility score, BMD, and follow-up period. We compared clinical outcomes, including Harris Hip Score (HSS) and the walking ability at the last follow-up visit and radiologic outcomes, including non-union and the time to union. RESULTS: The average HHS and Parker's mobility score at the last follow-up were 81.7 and 6.9 in the sarcopenic group, and 77.6 and 6.3 in the non-sarcopenic group, respectively (p=0.149 and 0.122). Non-union was identified 0 (0%) in sarcopenic group and 4 (10%) in non-sarcopenic group (p=0.288). The mean union timer of the patients in the sarcopenia group was 4.0 months and that of patients in the non-sarcopenic group was 4.4 months (p=0.210). Multiple regression analysis did not show any significant association between sarcopenia and postoperative surgical outcomes, including HHS, mobility score at the last follow up, non-union, and time to union. CONCLUSION: Although the present study showed that the prevalence of sarcopenia in hip fracture patients was 45.9% (62/135), there was no clinical association between sarcopenia and postoperative. Based on these results, the clinical impact of sarcopenia may be confined to increased risk of hip fracture occurrence and surgical outcomes of hip fracture may not be affected by sarcopenia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, Therapeutic Study.

BACKGROUND: The aims of the present study are to (1) conduct the longest-to-date follow-up wear analysis of the highly cross-linked polyethylene acetabular liners, (2) assess the incidence of femoral and acetabular osteolysis, and (3) compare the surgical outcomes between standard and elevated-rim acetabular liners in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, we evaluated 112 primary THAs performed by a single experienced arthroplasty surgeon at our institution between March 2000 and December 2003. Patients were classified based on the type of acetabular liner used: standard or elevated-rim liner. For evaluation of surgical outcomes, the following data were collected: acetabular cup position (anteversion and inclination), wear rate (linear and volumetric), presence of osteolysis, history of reoperation (all-cause and wear-related), complications (deep joint infection, dislocation, and periprosthetic fracture), and Harris hip score at last follow-up. RESULTS: Linear and volumetric wear rates were 0.028 mm/y (0.000-0.145 mm/y) and 11.641 mm3/y (0.000-70.000 mm3/y) in the standard group and 0.026 mm/y (0.000-0.094mm/y) and 9.706 mm3/y (0.000-33.000 mm3/y) in the elevated-rim group, respectively. These rates were not significantly different between groups. One case of osteolysis was confirmed in the standard group, whereas no osteolysis was observed in the elevated-rim group. CONCLUSION: We suggest that elevated-rim highly cross-linked polyethylene acetabular liners might be a good implant option that can be used safely.

Osborne's modified decompression involves repairing Osborne's ligament beneath the ulnar nerve after simple decompression for idiopathic cubital tunnel syndrome. In this retrospective interrupted time series, 31 patients underwent modified simple decompression and 20 patients underwent conventional simple decompression. In the modified simple decompression group, the ulnar nerve length was measured at operation in full elbow flexion and extension before and after repair of Osborne's ligament. Ulnar nerve instability during elbow motion was measured using ultrasonography before operation and at 12 months after operation. In patients treated by modified simple decompression, the ulnar nerve length in full elbow flexion reduced significantly after repair of Osborne's ligament. At 12 months after surgery, the grade of ulnar nerve instability was lower in the modified simple decompression group than in the conventional simple decompression group. The clinical outcomes did not differ significantly between the groups at 24 months after operation. Level of evidence: III.

PURPOSE: We analyzed the surgical outcomes at two institutions after internal fixation using multiple screws in femoral neck fractures with valgus impaction to determine independent predictors and their cut-off values for nonunion and reoperation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2006 and December 2016, 104 femoral neck fractures with valgus impaction that underwent internal fixation using multiple screws from two institutions were enrolled. The multiple logistic regression model and receiver operating characteristics analysis were used to determine the independent predictors and cut-off values for nonunion and reoperation. RESULTS: There were 20 reoperations (19.2%) due to 11 nonunions (10.6%) and nine cases of femoral head osteonecrosis (8.7%). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that independent predictors of nonunion and reoperation were age and posterior tilt angle (P<0.05). The cut-off value for age and the posterior tilt angle for reoperation were 72.5 years and 12.2°, respectively. The patients with a posterior tilt angle of greater than 13° had poorer radiological and clinical outcomes compared with those with a posterior tilt angle of less than 13°, even though they did achieve bone union. CONCLUSION: Primary hip arthroplasty should be considered in patients older than 73 years of age with a posterior tilt angle greater than 13°.

BACKGROUND: Hip fracture and upper extremity fracture are most important age-related fracture. However, there have been few reports about the analysis of prevalence or risk factors with concomitant hip and upper extremity fractures. This study aimed to describe the prevalence and clinical implications of the concomitant hip and upper extremity fractures in elderly. METHODS: We evaluate 1018 patients aged >65 years who were surgically treated for femoral neck or intertrochanteric fractures between March 2008 and December 2018. 35 patients (3.4%) with a hip fracture combined upper extremity fracture. All patients were classified into the isolated hip fracture and the concomitant fracture. We analyzed these patients' characteristics such as age, gender, bone mineral density (BMD), body mass index (BMI), Korean version of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE-K), injury mechanism, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS: The most common site of upper extremity fracture was distal radius fracture of 15 patients (42.8%), followed by proximal humeral fracture of 8 (22.8%). Concomitant fractures occurred on the same side in 30 patients (85.7%). The mean age of patients with a concomitant fracture was younger than that of patients with an isolated hip fracture (pâ¯<â¯0.05). Mean preinjury MMSE-K was 22.7 in isolated hip fracture and 25.6 in concomitant fracture patients (pâ¯<â¯0.05). Mean length of hospital stay was statistically significant different between two groups (pâ¯<â¯0.05). According to fracture site of hip, there was no statistically different prevalence of upper extremity fracture in femoral intertrochanteric fracture compared to the neck fracture. CONCLUSION: We found a 3.4% prevalence of concomitant hip and upper extremity fractures. It was found that the younger the age with preserved cognitive ability in elderly patients with a hip fracture, the higher the prevalence of upper extremity fracture. In addition, it is important to keep in mind that patients with a concomitant fracture have a longer hospital stay and difficulty in rehabilitation.
