RESUMO
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is chronic, autoimmune joint inflammation characterized by irreversible joint destruction. Besides increased resorption, destruction is a result of decreased bone formation, due to suppressed differentiation and function of the mesenchymal lineage-derived osteoblasts in inflammatory milieu. In this study, we analyzed the cellular composition of synovial tissue from 11 RA and 10 control patients harvested during planned surgeries in order to characterize resident synovial progenitor populations. Synovial cells were released by collagenase, and labeled for flow cytometry by two antibody panels: 1. CD3-FITC, CD14-PE, 7-AAD, CD11b-PECy7, CD235a-APC, CD19-APCeF780; and 2. 7-AAD, CD105-PECy7, CD45/CD31/CD235a-APC, and CD200-APCeF780. The proportions of lymphocytes (CD3+, CD19+) and myeloid (CD11b+, CD14+) cells were higher in synovial tissue from the patients with RA than in the controls. Among non-hematopoietic (CD45-CD31-CD235a-) cells, there was a decrease in the proportion of CD200+CD105- and increase in the proportion of CD200-CD105+ cells in synovial tissue from the patients with RA in comparison to the control patients. The proportions of both populations were associated with inflammatory activity and could discriminate between the RA and the controls.

INTRODUCTION: The majority of acetabular revisions can be performed with an uncemented, porous acetabular component with or without bone grafting. These are contained acetabular defects, with an intact acetabular rim (Paprosky type I and II). As defects of the medial wall of the acetabulum are a challenge situation revision surgery, we performed this biomechanical study on a pig pelvis model with contained acetabular defects to determine the size of medial wall defect at which the acetabular cup will have sufficient primary stability. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In 24 pig pelvis models, different diameter of medial wall defects were created, followed by acetabular component placement. The acetabulum externally loaded, and the force at a level in which the acetabular component remains stable for each diameter of defect, or at which point the acetabular cup moves into the pelvis for >2 mm. RESULTS: In the models with acetabular medial wall defects of 10 and 20 mm, 2 mm acetabular displacement occurred under a force between 1000 and 1500 N. In those with a medial wall defect of 25 mm, the force that caused acetabular instability was between 700 and 1000 N. In the models with 30 mm of medial wall defect all acetabular components were unstable under a force of 700 N. CONCLUSIONS: According to our results, acetabular component should be stable if the defect of the medial wall of the acetabulum is less than 68% of the diameter of the acetabular component or if the uncovered surface area of the acetabular component is not greater than 27%, and the force <700 N. For a load of 1000 N, the medial wall defect should not exceed 45% of acetabular component diameter or 18% of uncovered acetabular component surface.

Debonding of the porous coating from the acetabular component of a total hip endoprosthesis is a rare complication. Revision total hip arthroplasty for an unstable acetabular component with a debonded porous coating strongly fixed to the bone can be challenging, especially in elderly patients of poor overall health. In such patients, revision procedures should be as simple and safe as possible. We present our technique of solving that problem in a case of an 82-year-old female with bad general condition and unstable acetabular component of hip endoprosthesis. Because of extremely deficient bone stock, a well-fixed porous coating was left in acetabulum to serve as a "cage", allowing cemented acetabular component placement. This procedure can reduce the risk of intraoperative bone fracture, blood loss, and duration of surgery, which is important in elderly patients with poor overall health.
