Abstract

Among the several treatment techniques for acetabular reconstruction after total hip arthroplasty is cemented acetabular revision. Use of isolated cemented cup revision is not frequently chosen for acetabular revision, however, because outcomes with this technique are poor despite improved cementing techniques. Most cemented cup revisions are performed for severe bone loss when biologic fixation near the normal hip center is unlikely and are often supplemented with bone grafting and metal reinforcement devices cases. Advantages of using this technique are the ability to incorporate antibiotics into the cement and the ability to customize the cement mantle to host bone.

Quality of life after several treatments for osteoarthritis of the hip.

The purpose of this study was to examine quality of life (QOL) after a rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO), primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), or conservative treatment (Conservative). A series of 147 patients with osteoarthritis of the hip were grouped according to treatment into the RAO group ( n = 62), THA group ( n = 40), and Conservative group ( n = 45) (treated with medication and rehabilitation alone). The mean age of the RAO group was 40 years, the THA group 54 years, and the Conservative group 50 years. The mean follow-up periods were 3.6, 3.9, and 3.3 years, respectively. All patients were female. As a control group 609 volunteers participating in a town mass screening program were recruited. QOL was determined using the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP). Each area of QOL was evaluated separately in all of the treatment groups at less than 1 year after therapy, at more than 1 year but less than 5 years, and at more than 5 years. With regard to QOL at less than 1 year after therapy, the Conservative group had significantly higher scores for energy, pain, and emotional reaction than the Control group. With regard to physical mobility, all of the treatment groups showed significantly higher scores than the Control group. With regard to QOL at more than 1 year but less than 5 years, the RAO and THA groups showed significantly higher scores than the Control group regarding physical mobility. Regarding pain, the RAO and Conservative groups showed significantly higher scores than the Control group. With regard to QOL at more than 5 years, for physical mobility all of the treatment groups showed significantly higher scores than the Control group. For pain the RAO group showed significantly higher scores than the Control group. NHP is a useful means for evaluating QOL in patients treated for osteoarthritis of the hip.

Acetabular labrum entrapment following traumatic posterior dislocation of the hip.

In traumatic dislocation of the hip with or without a fracture of the acetabular rim, complete anatomical reduction might be prevented by a bone fragment or infrequently by a soft tissue block, such as a torn acetabular labrum, ruptured capsule, or round ligament. We report a rare case of a tear in the acetabular labrum that prevented complete reduction of the dislocated hip. A 26-year-old man suffered posterior dislocation of the right hip, which was reduced under general anesthesia. The postreduction radiograph showed that the reduction was not complete, and a thin bony fragment was observed in the joint space in the weight-bearing area. Open reduction was performed 11 days later. We found a free bone fragment in the joint space, which was removed. The postoperative radiograph still did not show complete reduction of the hip. A large defect in the contrast medium was shown in the widened joint space by arthrography, which revealed the existence of the soft tissue interposition. We then performed a second operation and learned that the acetabular labrum was widely detached from the anterior to the posterior acetabular rim and was lying deep within the acetabulum. This detached portion of the labrum was excised, and the hip was reduced. The radiograph obtained during surgery then showed complete, concentric reduction. We missed the diagnosis clinically and radiologically at the first operation, proving how important it is to obtain an accurate radiological diagnosis in the operating room.

Human hip dysplasia: evolution of current treatment concepts.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip is best treated during infancy. Residual dysplasia is a major cause of disability and should be corrected surgically at an early age. Children 3-8 years of age are usually treated with an acetabular reshaping osteotomy, such as the Pemberton procedure or the San Diego osteotomy. Children over age 8-10 years are best treated using triple innominate osteotomy. After age 14-15 years, when the triradiate cartilage is closed, the Ganz periacetabular osteotomy provides effective correction of residual dysplasia. Surgical intervention during childhood or teenage years can alter the natural history of hip dysplasia and greatly improve hip-joint longevity.
