RESUMO

PURPOSE: Many studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of nail shape, design, or length on the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. However, the clinical implications of the nail diameter remain unclear. METHODS: This study was conducted with 191 patients aged ≥ 50 years with unilateral intertrochanteric fractures treated with the same type of short cephalomedullary nail and followed for at least one year. We recorded the reduction type, tip-apex distance, cortical contact of the nail, and nail/canal diameter ratio (NCR) just distal to the locking screw. The effects of nail diameter on the clinical results were evaluated. RESULTS: The average NCR was 68.7. The average union time was 4.78 months. Delayed union or nonunion was seen in 17 patients. Eight patients underwent additional surgery. The mean change in the modified Koval activity score was -0.84. The NCR did not significantly affect the clinical results. Comparisons of cases with NCRs above and below the average and the average - 1 standard deviation revealed no significant difference. The clinical outcome was not related to any variable associated with the nail diameter. CONCLUSION: With this specific proximal femoral nail, a small diameter relative to that of the femoral canal had no adverse effect on the union of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures, even in patients with unstable fractures and those who had unsatisfactory reductions.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Femoral revision surgery in patients with substantial bone loss is challenging. Impaction bone grafting using a cemented stem can be a good solution for reconstruction of the femur with poor bone stock and extensive bone loss. This study aimed to evaluate the mid-to-long-term clinical and radiographic results of impaction bone grafting using a cemented stem for Paprosky IV femoral bone defects. METHODS: Thirteen patients (13 hips) who underwent revision total hip arthroplasty with impaction bone grafting using a cemented stem and were followed up for at least 5 years were enrolled in this study. In all patients, a sufficient amount of fresh frozen bone of good quality was used. When cortical segmental defects were present, peripheral reinforcement with metal mesh and strut allograft was performed. The average follow-up duration was 11.1 (range, 5.3-15.1) years. The clinical and radiographic outcomes were reviewed at the final follow-up. RESULTS: The average Harris hip score was 82.5 (range, 79-94), and the average University of California, Los Angeles activity score was 5.6 (range, 4-8) at the final follow-up. Radiographic assessment revealed an average femoral component subsidence level of 0.67 (range, 0.05-2.81) mm. There were no complications, except one case (7.6%) of periprosthetic fracture. CONCLUSIONS: Impaction bone grafting using a cemented stem yielded excellent mid-to-long-term outcomes. It is a reliable technique for Paprosky IV femoral bone defects, and even when severe femoral cortical bone defects are present, long-term stability can be obtained using a metal mesh and/or strut allograft.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Studies explaining the relationship between hip and spine reported that spinal corrective surgery affected acetabular orientation and changes in pelvic tilt were capable of influencing radiographic measures of acetabular coverage. This study aimed to assess the change in coronal parameters for acetabular coverage as a result of adult spinal deformity (ASD) correction and to analyze the relationship between the postoperative changes in sagittal spinopelvic parameters and coronal acetabular coverage parameters. METHODS: Fifty-two consecutive patients who had undergone multilevel spinal surgical correction were enrolled and evaluated. Coronal acetabular coverage parameters included Tönnis angle (TA), lateral center edge angle (LCEA), and the angle of Sharp (SA). All radiographic parameters were evaluated at the preoperative and the postoperative 1 year. Paired t test was used to determine whether there were significant changes between the time points. Bivariate correlation and linear regression analysis were used to assess the relationship between the postoperative changes of spinal alignment and acetabular orientation. RESULTS: The surgical correction resulted in significant decrease of TA, increase of LCEA and SA, respectively (p < 0.001). The changes in pelvic tilt (PT) demonstrated weak correlation on TA (ß = 0.117, p < 0.001 for right; ß = 0.111, p < 0.001 for left). CONCLUSIONS: Although the surgical correction of ASD significantly changed PT resulting in increased acetabular lateral coverage parameters, the correlation between the changes of PT following sagittal correction of ASD and acetabular coverage parameters was low. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study was retrospectively registered with approval by the institutional review board (IRB) of our institution (approval number: KHNMC-2020-10-010).

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study was performed to evaluate the effects of age on the alpha angle and the incidence of asymptomatic cam morphology. METHODS: The radiographs of asymptomatic individuals between ages 8 and 22 were retrospectively collected. A total of 1417 individuals were included and grouped according to age: 8-12 (Group A), 13-18 (Group B), and 19-22 (Group C) years. Radiographic measurements of the alpha angles of the right hip were obtained from anteroposterior (AP) and frog-leg lateral (FL) radiographs. The correlations among alpha angles, the presence of cam morphology, and age were determined. RESULTS: The mean alpha angles of the three groups were statistically different (p < 0.001, each). The alpha angles on both radiographs were positively correlated with age. Intra-group analysis revealed that this correlation was only evident on the FL images of males in Group B. The presence of a radiographic cam morphology also positively correlated with age (p < 0.001 in both AP and FL images). The cam morphology on AP radiographs was 0 in Group A, 17(3.0%) in Group B, and 21(4.8%) in Group C; that on FL radiographs was 2(0.3%) in Group A, 45(7.9%) in Group B, and 103(23.6%) in Group C. Intra-group analysis revealed that the correlation was only significant in males in Group B. CONCLUSIONS: Higher alpha angles and the presence of cam morphology were positively correlated with age, particularly in males at or before the time of skeletal maturation. The prevalence of cam morphology did not differ from those in other ethnicities. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to present a treatment for end-stage pyogenic arthritis of the hip using a novel cement spacer. This spacer caused less damage to the proximal femoral bone and made the conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) more convenient while maintaining the advantages of current cement spacers loaded with antibiotics. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 10 consecutive cases of hip pyogenic arthritis with joint destruction. These cases occurred from September 2009 to June 2015. In these cases, we used an antibiotic-loaded, cement spacer that was formed in the shape of the femoral head. This spacer rested on multiple screws that were inserted in the remaining neck of the femur. Once the infection subsided, a conversion to THA was performed in all cases. Evaluation included clinical and radiologic outcomes and the development of complications. RESULTS: The mean interval between spacer insertion and conversion to THA was 101.6 days (range, 59-187 days). The mean follow-up period from initial spacer insertion was 44.9 months (range, 15-95 months). All cases underwent noncemented THA following the resolution of the initial infection. The mean Harris Hip Scores at initial visit, before conversion to THA, and on final follow-up were 58.8, 71.0, and 92.5, respectively. No case had any spacer-related complications, recurrence of infection, or dislocation. CONCLUSION: The treatment of advanced pyogenic arthritis with this novel femoral head spacer technique significantly reduced pain, preserved proximal femoral bone and soft tissue tension, controlled infection, improved function, and allowed for easier conversion to THA.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Load transfer to the bone is believed to be more physiological around the short stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, we found unusual bony remodeling around the shortened tapered stem. This study was performed to investigate the extent and frequency of this phenomenon and to find the possible risk factors of it. METHODS: Among 121 consecutive THA using the same short stem, 80 THAs were enrolled. Radiographic measurements were made using anteroposterior (AP) radiographs taken immediately and at two years after surgery. The thickness of the lateral cortex at the level of the distal end of the coated surface and at 10, 20, 30, and 40 mm proximal to it were measured. RESULTS: Significant atrophy was noted in all regions (P < 0.001 each). In 46 cases, this presented as an intra-cortical osteolytic line (IOL). Sixty-one cases showed either an IOL or atrophy >10%. The risk of a mean reduction >20% was related to an increased operating time (odds ratio [OR] = 0.981; 0.966 < 95% confidence interval [CI] < 0.996) and lower body mass index (BMI) (OR = 1.216; 1.043 < 95% CI < 1.417). Periprosthetic fracture through the lateral cortex occurred in one case. CONCLUSION: Even with THA using a shortened stem, high incidence of proximal stress shielding was noted in the form of lateral cortical atrophy, especially for the patient with low BMI.

RESUMO

Proliferative fasciitis is a benign entity involving the subcutaneous tissues and fascias, characterized by the proliferation of fibroblast-like spindle cells and ganglion-like cells. However, proliferative fasciitis may be easily confused with sarcoma clinically and pathologically, because it appears as a rapidly growing painful mass and has histologic features such as high cellularity, bizarre morphologic patterns, mitotic figures, and diffuse infiltrative proliferation. Imaging findings of proliferative fasciitis have been very rarely reported. We report the sonographic findings in a case of proliferative fasciitis in a 43-year-old woman with histopathological correlation. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound 45:445-449, 2017.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In the emergency department, patients with abdominopelvic trauma inadvertently undergo both abdominal computed tomography (CT) (for intra-abdominal and intra-pelvic organs) and pelvic CT (CT with multiplanar reformation in three orthogonal planes of the bony pelvis). However, the systemic use of CT is concerning given the cumulative radiation dose. PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of abdominal CT in comparison to pelvic CT in patients with suspected pelvic fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seventy-two patients who underwent abdominal CT and pelvic CT within a 2-week period to evaluate pelvic fractures were included. Two reviewers retrospectively analyzed eight anatomical regions of the pelvic bones on both abdominal CT and pelvic CT over a 1-week interval. The interpretation of pelvic CT scans by two senior musculoskeletal radiologists was considered as the reference standard. Diagnostic performance and inter-observer agreement of both CT scans were evaluated. RESULTS: For reviewers 1 and 2, abdominal CT showed high accuracy (98% and 98%, respectively) as did pelvic CT. For both abdominal CT and pelvic CT, fracture detection in all anatomical regions of the pelvic bones was not significantly different for the two reviewers (P ≥ 0.25). Inter-observer agreement for all anatomical regions of the pelvic bones was excellent or good (k = 0.785-1.0). CONCLUSION: Not only pelvic CT but also abdominal CT is acceptable for detection of pelvic fractures, in spite of its thicker sections and different reconstruction algorithm. Therefore, if abdominal CT has already been performed, additional pelvic CT might no longer be necessary in order to exclude a pelvic fracture.

RESUMO

Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement is a pathologic condition caused by repetitive impact of the abnormal femur on a normal acetabular rim, resulting in damage to the articular cartilage. Excluding cases with known underlying diseases, the development of primary cam deformity is not well understood. Here, we describe a patient with cam-type femoroacetabular impingement exhibiting delayed epiphyseal closure at the site of the cam lesion. The authors believe that this may represent a cause of primary cam deformity, and hereby report the case with review of the literature.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Polyethylene liner dissociation from an acetabular component is a complication of total-hip arthroplasty (THA) caused by slippage of the liner, which causes pain and requires a revision. The aim of this study was to evaluate sonographic features of liner dissociation and detect useful sonographic findings compared to conventional radiography and computed tomography (CT). METHODS: Among a total of 226 patients who underwent revision THA at our institution between September 2008 and June 2012, 10 patients (6 male and 4 female; mean age, 56.2 years) who showed severe narrowing of the superior joint space on the THA side and underwent sonography were retrospectively reviewed by evaluating radiographic, CT, and sonographic findings. In evaluation of the images, we put more emphasis on the "radiographic crescent sign," "CT crescent sign," and "sonographic tram track sign." RESULTS: At surgery, 7 patients showed liner dissociation, and 3 showed severe liner wear. On radiography, 8 of 10 patients (80%) had a correct diagnosis of the presence or absence of liner dissociation; on sonography, all 10 patients (100%) had a correct diagnosis. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for diagnosis of liner dissociation by pelvic radiography and sonography were 100% (7 of 7), 33% (1 of 3), and 80% (8 of 10) and 100% (7 of 7), 100% (3 of 3), and 100% (10 of 10), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Liner dissociation can be easily and well visualized by sonography, especially compared to pelvic radiography and CT. The sonographic tram track sign should be a very useful feature in the early diagnosis of liner dissociation.

RESUMO

Among 320 hip arthroplasties performed between January 2007 and March 2008, patients younger than 50 years old and patients older than 70 with a T-score at the proximal femur less than -2.5 made up the control and study group, respectively. There were 40 patients in each group. We measured stem subsidence, both digital and manual methods. Measurements were made from radiographs taken serially from 2 weeks to 1 year after surgery. The amount of mean subsidence for each group was not different, and all stems showed stable fixation in the final radiographs. Our study suggests that even in osteoporotic proximal femurs, press-fit fixation of double-tapered stems for hip arthroplasty can be safe and effective without excessive early subsidence.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to assess injury patterns and risk factors of the acetabular labrum and associated cartilage in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) versus dysplasia. We retrospectively reviewed 137 patients diagnosed with labral tears and FAI or dysplasia (74 or 63 cases, respectively) through an arthroscopic procedure. Labral and concomitant cartilage injuries were evaluated. Demographics and radiological variables [lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), anterior center-edge angle, acetabular index (AI), acetabular version and alpha angle] were evaluated as risk factors for labral and cartilage injuries. Detachment of acetabular cartilage with intact labro-cartilaginous junction was the most common in dysplasia, whereas cartilage delamination from the labro-cartilaginous junction was more common in FAI (P < 0.001). A higher body mass index was significantly associated with delamination injury in FAI (odds ratio 1.226; 95% CI 1.043-1.441; P = 0.013). A significant correlation was evident between detachment injury and a larger AI in dysplasia (odds ratio 1.127; 95% CI 1.000-1.270; P = 0.049). In addition, symptom duration was positively correlated with the extent of labral tearing in FAI (P = 0.013), whereas the smaller LCEA was correlated with the larger extent of labral tearing in dysplasia (P = 0.044). FAI and dysplasia patients exhibited different labral and cartilage injury patterns. Increased body mass index was correlated with delamination injury in FAI, whereas an increased AI was associated with detachment injury in dysplasia. Greater tearing was associated with a longer symptom duration in FAI, and a decreased LCEA was a risk factor for the extent of tearing in dysplasia. Level of evidence Level III. Case-control study.

RESUMO

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical outcomes and efficacy of hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head after the failure of porous tantalum rod insertion without rod removal. Materials and Methods: Conversion to hip resurfacing arthroplasty was performed in 10 patients (11 hips) with a mean period of 14.9 months after the primary surgery. The mean follow-up period was 73.7 months. Analysis of pre and postoperative range of motion (ROM), University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score, modified Harris hip score, and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score was performed. Radiographic analysis of component loosening and osteolysis was performed. Results: The postoperative ROM showed significant improvement (P<0.05), excluding flexion contracture. The modified Harris hip score showed improvement from 65.82 to 96.18, the UCLA score showed improvement from 4.18 to 8.00, and the VAS pain score was reduced from 6.09 to 1.80. All scores showed statistically significant improvement (P<0.05). No component loosening or osteolysis was detected by radiographic analysis. Conclusion: Satisfactory results were obtained from conversion hip resurfacing arthroplasty after failure of porous tantalum rod insertion without rod removal. The findings of this study demonstrate the advantages of HRA, including no risk of trochanteric fracture and no bone loss around the tantalum rod. In addition, the remaining porous tantalum rod provided mechanical support, which reduced the potential risk of femoral neck fracture or loosening. This technique can be regarded as a favorable treatment option.

RESUMO

For a successful robot-assisted arthroplasty, every step should be executed harmoniously. However, when we encounter serious obstacles during surgery, it is sometimes better to abort the procedure in a timely manner. This study investigated the possible causes and patterns of aborted robot-assisted arthroplasties. Of 100 consecutively planned robot-assisted arthroplasties, 22 cases were aborted. Most involved total knee arthroplasty (21/22 cases). We classified the causes according to the stage at which they occurred and the type of error. Abortions after starting the milling procedure and abortions due to an interactive factor were the most common. We believe that this study can guide surgeons to effective decision making during robot-assisted arthroplasty.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To introduce the principles and procedure of percutaneous elastic intramedullary nailing (PEIN) as a treatment for symptomatic incomplete atypical femoral fracture (SIAFF). METHODS: From October 2014 to April 2019, 6 cases of SIAFF were treated with PEIN. Two pre-bent 4-mm stainless-steel nails were used to apply compressive force to the fracture site. The antegrade method was used for proximal fractures and the retrograde method for middle and distal femoral fractures. The femoral bowing angle in the coronal and sagittal planes, and the time required for callus formation and union, were evaluated on plain radiographs in both planes. Thigh pain, tenderness, and complications were also assessed. RESULTS: The mean operating time was 65.00 ± 22.64 min. No case progressed to complete atypical fracture. In one case, fracture occurred around the point of nail entry after the patient fell from a chair on postoperative day 7. The incomplete fracture lines were united in 5 cases, after excluding one case with a complication. The time taken to confirm endocortical callus formation, fracture line disappearance, and clinical union was 2.11 ± 0.53, 6.45 ± 4.10, and 6.45 ± 3.65 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: PEIN is a quick, simple but effective treatment for SIAFF that considers the fracture mechanism and is applicable to cases with severe femoral bowing. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case series.

RESUMO

We report the case of a 55-year-old woman who presented with a severe pain and a mass in the proximal portion of the medial calf. On sonography, the lesion appeared as a poorly defined hypoechoic lesion with interspersed muscle bundles. A total excision of the lesion was performed. On microscopic examination, the specimen demonstrated cystic lesions surrounded by fibrous walls within the muscle bundles. A ruptured intramuscular ganglion cyst diagnosis was made based on the histopathologic findings.

RESUMO

The contribution of the ligamentum teres to the stabilization of the hip joint and the clinical influence of a compromised ligamentum teres are not well known. This study aimed to investigate joint stability and cartilage damage in a rabbit model by surgically inducing a complete ligamentum teres tear. Twenty adult New Zealand rabbits were used in this study. Rabbits were divided into complete ligamentum teres tear with capsulotomy (n = 9, group I) and capsulotomy only (n = 10, group II) groups. Unilateral surgery was performed on the left hip. Joint instability was assessed by measuring the preoperative and postoperative acetabulofemoral (A-F) distances. Rabbits were euthanized to assess cartilage damage at 24 weeks postoperatively. The median postoperative A-F distance of the operated side in group I [0.68 cm (0.37-1.04 cm)] was larger than that in group II [0.50 cm (0.30-0.65 cm)] (p = 0.041). The median postoperative A-F distance was larger in the operated side [0.68 cm (0.37-1.04 cm)] compared to the nonoperated side [0.45 cm (0.30-0.75 cm)] in group I; it also was larger in the operated side [0.50 cm (0.30-0.65 cm)] compared to the nonoperated side [0.44 cm (0.32-0.67 cm)] in group II, but only group I showed a significant difference (p = 0.016 and 0.395, respectively). Articular cartilage damage was detected at the apex of the femoral head in two rabbits (22.2%) in group I only. Rabbits with a complete ligamentum teres tear showed significant instability at the hip joint and articular cartilage damage in our rabbit model, supporting the potential clinical importance of ligamentum teres as a hip joint stabilizer.

RESUMO

There still remains controversy on the pathomechanism of atypical femoral fracture (AFF). The angle of lateral bowing and bone mineral density showed significant differences between subtrochanteric and diaphyseal atypical fracture groups. In addition to the use of bisphosphonate, mechanical factors might play important roles in the occurrence of AFFs. INTRODUCTION: Although AFF could be divided into subtrochanteric and diaphyseal fracture according to the location of fractures, there is a lack of evidence regarding differences between two fractures and etiology of the occurrence. The aim of study is to determine differences between atypical subtrochanteric and diaphyseal fracture in Korean population. METHODS: Between February 2010 and March 2015, 51 AFFs in 40 patients were included in this study. Their medical records were retrospectively reviewed. The AFF patients satisfied all the diagnostic criteria of the 2014 revised edition of the ASMBR. To analyze the differences according to the location of fracture, the AFFs were divided into subtrochanteric (n = 16) and diaphyseal (n = 35) fracture groups. The following factors were compared between two groups: patients' demographics, underlying diseases, laboratory findings (serum-25(OH) VitD3, osteocalcin, c-telopeptide, ALP, Ca, and P), bone mineral density (BMD), duration of bisphosphonate (BP) usage, and lateral bowing of the femur at time of the fracture. RESULTS: All AFFs happened in female patients (mean age, 73.8 years) who have received bisphosphonate treatments except three patients. The mean duration of bisphosphonate usage was 95.3 months. Between the two groups, demographic data (age, height, weight, and BMI), underlying diseases, laboratory findings, hip BMD, and duration of BP treatment were comparable to each other (p > 0.05). However, the subtrochanteric fracture group showed higher FNSBA (femoral neck shaft bowing angle, p < 0.001) and spine BMD (p = 0.014) compared to the diaphyseal fracture group. CONCLUSIONS: Angle of lateral bowing (FNSBA) and spine BMD showed significant differences between subtrochanteric and diaphyseal atypical fracture groups. According to our results, femoral bowing and spine BMD may play important roles in the AFF locations.
