RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has demonstrated excellent results in elderly patients, however, the indications, outcomes, and long-term results in adolescent patients are less understood. This study aims to assess the outcomes of THA in patients under 21, providing insights for clinical decision-making in this exceptional population. METHODS: A systematic review in PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, and Embase database was performed. We included studies reporting clinical, radiological, and functional outcomes of THA in patients younger than 21 years, for any cause, with a with a minimum follow-up of one year. The ten year survivorship estimate was pooled using a meta-analysis methodology and each study was weighted according to its standard error, calculated from published confidence intervals. RESULTS: We included 25 studies involving 1166 hips. Median age was 17 years old, 60% were females, and the average follow-up was 8.1 years. Juvenile inflammatory arthritis was the main indication for total hip arthroplasty (THA). The all-cause revision rate was 14.4% and aseptic loosening was the most common cause. Only eight studies reported ten year survival rates and form the pooled analysis an 84.91% survival rate (95% CI 70.56 - 99.27) was obtained. An average score of 88.08 in the Harris Hip Score (HHS) was observed. We found a 3.43% complication rate. CONCLUSIONS: Hip arthroplasty is an acceptable option for adolescents with end-stage arthritis. However, the altered hip anatomy, the elevated revision rate, and the long-term implant survival must be considered before performing a THA in adolescent patients.

Hip femoroacetabular impingement syndrome is observed in 47% to 74% of patients with hip pain. Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome may result in osteoarthritis. It is well known that cam lesion volume and hip alpha angle are critical parameters determining patient outcomes. Recent research shows that a superolateral cam lesion location increases risk of hip arthroplasty at 5 years, and that this is more common in younger patients. The clinical relevance is that we may need to more aggressively treat superolateral cam lesions in younger patients, pending additional research to determine whether location is destiny.

INTRODUCTION: Some patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) who undergo surgery do not show satisfactory outcomes. Reliable tests that can inform prognosis of FAIS surgery are needed for optimized indications and contraindications to surgery. We aimed to review and critically appraise available literature on the capability of patient response to preoperative intra-articular anesthetic injections (PIAI) to predict post-surgical outcomes in patients with FAIS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA statement. Studies that assessed the patient pain response to PIAI and post-surgical outcomes in patients with FAIS were considered eligible. Study selection and data collection were performed by three independent reviewers. Main outcomes evaluated were those measured by hip outcome scales often used in assessing postoperative pain and functional recovery, such as the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT). The likelihood ratio of achieving satisfactory postoperative outcomes at the mHHS (LHR) was extracted or calculated-for patients with significant response to PIAI and for those without a significant response to PIAI. The risk of bias was assessed using the Quality In Prognosis Studies (QUIPS) tool. RESULTS: Six studies were considered eligible for analysis. Five studies indicated that patient response to PIAI are associated to surgical outcomes for patients with FAIS, with a greater reduction in pain typically indicating a better surgical outcome. Additionally, the LHR ranged from 1.15 to 1.92 for patients with significant response to PIAI (I2 = 90.6%). For patients without a significant response, the LHR ranged from 0.18 to 0.65 (I2 = 87.5). An overall high risk of bias was observed for all studies included in the analysis. Study attrition, the prognostic factor measurement and the presence of confounding factors were the main sources of bias. CONCLUSIONS: Greater reductions in pain with preoperative intra-articular anesthetic injections were found to be associated to better outcomes after FAIS surgery, but all available studies contain a high risk of bias.

BACKGROUND: Although there are several predominantly single-center case series in the literature, relatively little prospectively collected data exist regarding the outcomes of open hip reduction (OR) for infantile developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The purpose of this prospective, multi-center study was to determine the outcomes after OR in a diverse patient population. METHODS: The prospectively collected database of an international multicenter study group was queried for all patients treated with OR for DDH. Minimum follow-up was 1 year. Proximal femoral growth disturbance (PFGD) was defined by consensus review using Salter's criteria. Persistent acetabular dysplasia was defined as an acetabular index >90th percentile for age. Statistical analyses were performed to compare preoperative and operative characteristics that predicted re-dislocation, PFGD, and residual acetabular dysplasia. RESULTS: A cohort of 232 hips (195 patients) was identified; median age at OR was 19 months (interquartile range 13 to 28) and median follow-up length was 21 months (interquartile range 16 to 32). Re-dislocation occurred in 7% of hips (n=16/228). The majority (81%; n=13/16) occurred in the first year after initial OR. Excluding patients with repeat dislocation, 94.5% of hips were IHDI 1 at most recent follow-up. On the basis of strict radiographic review, some degree of PFGD was present in 44% of hips (n=101/230) at most recent follow-up. Seventy-eight hips (55%) demonstrated residual dysplasia compared with established normative data. Hips that had a pelvic osteotomy at index surgery had about half the rate of residual dysplasia (39%; n=32/82) versus those without a pelvic osteotomy with at least 2 years follow-up (78%; n=46/59). CONCLUSIONS: In the largest prospective, multicenter study to date, OR for infantile DDH was associated with a 7% risk of re-dislocation, 44% risk of PFGD, and 55% risk of residual acetabular dysplasia at short term follow-up. The incidence of these adverse outcomes is higher than previous reports. Patients treated with concomitant pelvic osteotomy had lower rates of residual dysplasia. These prospectively collected, multicenter data provide better generalizable information to improve family education and appropriately set expectations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, prospective comparative study.

There are different types of infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the pulmonary variety is the most common of them; infection of the bone secondary to joint replacement, is usually caused by a previous lung infection that has been disseminated. However primary bone infection is very rare and little reported, which makes information on the matter very scarce. A female patient is presented with a history of congenital hip dysplasia, who underwent multiple surgical interventions, including total hip arthroplasty (THA), afterwards she presented a fistula and persistent serous exudate; a biopsy was performed where acid-fast bacilli were detected. The delay in the diagnosis of osteoarticular tuberculosis (OATB) can lead to negative consequences, affecting the quality of life of the patient. Conventional diagnostic methods may be insufficient for the diagnosis of OATB.
Existen diferentes tipos de infección causadas por Mycobacterium tuberculosis, siendo la variedad pulmonar la más común de ellas; la infección del hueso secundaria a la artroplastia suele estar causada por una infección pulmonar previa que se ha diseminado. Sin embargo, la infección ósea primaria es muy rara y poco reportada, lo que hace que la información al respecto sea muy escasa. Se presenta un paciente femenino con antecedentes de displasia del desarrollo de la cadera, que se sometió a múltiples intervenciones quirúrgicas, incluida artroplastia total de cadera (ATC), posteriormente presentó una fístula y exudado seroso persistente; se realizó una biopsia donde se detectaron bacilos ácido-alcohol resistentes. El retraso en el diagnóstico de la tuberculosis osteoarticular (TBOA) puede tener consecuencias negativas, afectando la calidad de vida del paciente. Los métodos diagnósticos convencionales pueden ser insuficientes para el diagnóstico de TBOA.

Introducción: Existen más de 20 técnicas diferentes para corregir la discrepancia de miembros inferiores. El método que aquí se evalúa se basa en una clavija fija posicionada en el ala ilíaca asociada a un "calibre" móvil, con otra clavija con la que se marca la referencia en el trocánter mayor. Objetivo: Evaluar la confiabilidad de este dispositivo de medición usado durante la artroplastia total de cadera para restaurar la longitud del miembro inferior y el offset femoral. Materiales y Métodos: Se formaron dos grupos: grupo A con pacientes en quienes no se había usado el dispositivo y grupo B con pacientes en quienes sí se había usado el dispositivo. Se realizaron las mediciones en la radiografía panorámica de pelvis obtenida con el paciente de pie, antes de la cirugía y 3 meses después. Resultados: Se obtuvo una muestra de 80 pacientes (40 por grupo). Se logró corregir la discrepancia de la longitud de los miembros, pero no se hallaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la corrección promedio, entre ambos grupos (p = 0,07). Sin embargo, al analizar la varianza en la corrección de la discrepancia de la longitud de cada grupo se obtuvo una diferencia estadísticamente significativa (p <0,001). Conclusiones: Este dispositivo que permite una medición cuantificable más objetiva no asegura una corrección de la discrepancia de la longitud exacta a 0 mm, pero sí permite trabajar dentro de un rango más confiable y seguro.

Introduction: There are more than 20 different techniques to correct lower limb length discrepancy. The method evaluated in this study is based on a fixed pin in the iliac wing connected to a mobile gauge and another pin in the greater trochanter with which the reference is marked. The objective is to evaluate the reliability of this measurement device used during THA to restore lower limb length and femoral offset. Materials and Methods: Two groups were formed: Group A (patients who did not use the device) and Group B (patients who did use the device). Measurements were taken in the pre-surgery panoramic pelvic radiograph with the patient standing and three months later. Results: A sample of 80 patients was obtained, with 40 in each group. The difference in limb length could be corrected in each group, however the average correction achieved by both groups did not result in a statistically significant difference (p=0.07). However, when the variance in the correction of the difference in length of each group was examined, a statistically significant difference (p<0.001) was obtained. Conclusions: We can conclude that while this device, which serves as a more objective quantifiable measurement technique, does not guarantee a correction of the exact length discrepancy to 0 mm, it does allow us to work within a more dependable and safe range.

Abstract Objective To evaluate levels of pain, range of motion, hip isometric peak torque, and functional task performance in patients 6 months after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to compare them to asymptomatic control participants (CG). Methods We recruited participants with unilateral THA due to hip osteoarthritis (OA) within a median of 6 months who had not developed postoperative complications. We assessed the pain levels, hip range of motion, peak isometric torque, self-reported assessment (Harris Hip Score) and objectively measured function (Timed Up & Go Test [TUG]) of the patients. The THA group was compared with a group of asymptomatic participants ≥50 years old recruited in the community. Comparisons are presented as mean differences (MDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results A total of 23 participants were included in each group. Pain levels were low in the THA group (1.48 [1.60]), and 91.3% of the patients reported to be satisfied with the surgical procedure. Participants in the THA group reported significantly lower objectively measured (THA 12.2 [10.0-21.6]; CG 9.0 [6.7-12.2]) and self-reported function (THA 78.5 [43.8-93.9]; CG 100.0 [95.8-100.0]) compared with CG. The THA group also had significantly reduced range of motion for flexion (p< 0.001), internal (p< 0.001) and external rotation (p= 0.003) movements and reduced peak torque for flexion (p< 0.001), extension (p< 0.001), abduction (p< 0.001) and adduction (p= 0.024) movements compared with participants of the CG. Conclusions Despite reporting overall low pain scores and satisfaction with the surgery, the patients present with functional limitations, limited range of motion, and reduced muscle strength 6 months after THA. Evidence Level 3b
Resumo Objetivo Avaliar os níveis de intensidade da dor, amplitude de movimento, pico de torque isométrico do quadril e desempenho da tarefa funcional em pacientes 6 meses após a artroplastia total do quadril (ATQ), e comparar estes valores com os de participantes assintomáticos do grupo controle (GC). Métodos Recrutamos participantes com ATQ unilateral devida a osteoartrite (OA) do quadril, dentro de uma mediana de tempo de 6 meses, que não tinham desenvolvido complicações pós-operatórias. Os participantes foram avaliados quanto à intensidade da dor, à amplitude de movimento do quadril, ao pico de torque isométrico, à autoavaliação (questionário de avaliação do quadril Harris Hip Score [HHS, na sigla em inglês) e à função medida objetivamente por meio do teste Timed Up and Go (TUG, na sigla em inglês). O grupo ATQ foi comparado com um grupo de participantes assintomáticos com idade ≥ 50 anos recrutados na comunidade. As comparações são apresentadas como diferenças médias (DMs) e intervalos de confiança (ICs) de 95%. Resultados Cada grupo contou com 23 participantes. A intensidade da dor foi baixa no grupo ATQ (1,48 [1,60]), sendo que 91,3% dos pacientes relataram estar satisfeitos com o procedimento cirúrgico. Os participantes do grupo ATQ relataram uma função medida objetivamente significativamente menor (ATQ 12,2 [10,0-21,6]; GC 9,0 [6,7-12,2]) e a função autoavaliação (ATQ 78,5 [43,8-93,9]; GC 100,0 [95,8-100,0]), em comparação com o GC. O grupo ATQ também teve reduzida de forma significativa a amplitude de movimento para flexão (p< 0,001), os movimentos internos (p< 0,001) e de rotação externa (p= 0,003). O grupo ATQ também apresentou pico de torque reduzido para flexão (p< 0,001), extensão (p <0,001), movimentos de abdução (p< 0,001) e adução (p = 0,024) em comparação com os participantes do GC. Conclusões Apesar de informarem escores gerais de dor de baixa intensidade e satisfação com a cirurgia, os pacientes apresentaram limitações funcionais, amplitude de movimento limitada e redução da força muscular após 6 meses do procedimento cirúrgico de ATQ.

BACKGROUND: The Hip Sports Activity Scale (HSAS) is a hip-specific instrument for assessing the present levels of physical activity among patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. When evaluating treatment outcomes in patients with FAI syndrome, it is necessary to use joint-specific instruments and ones that can evaluate the levels of physical activity in these patients, such as the HSAS-Brazil. OBJECTIVE: To validate the HSAS-Brazil among a group of physically active patients after arthroscopic treatment of FAI syndrome. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional research of quantitative and qualitative types using data obtained from July 2018 to October 2019. METHODS: A total of 58 patients of both genders diagnosed with FAI syndrome and who had undergone hip arthroscopy participated in this research. To establish reliability and validity, patients first answered the Brazilian versions of the 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and HSAS; after a 48-hour interval, they answered the HSAS-Brazil again. RESULTS: For test-retest reliability, the interclass correlation was 0.908 (P < 0.001). The HSAS-Brazil correlated to the NAHS-Brazil (r = 0.63, P < 0.001), as well as the SF-12 (Physical Health) (r = 0.42, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION: The HSAS-Brazil was validated and proved to be a reliable and valid scale to assess sports activity levels in physically active patients with FAI syndrome after arthroscopic treatment.

BACKGROUND: Using a modular dual-mobility (MDM) bearing in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has not been widely evaluated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical outcomes and survivorship following MDM bearings in primary THA. METHODS: We used our registry database for patients with an MDM bearing on primary THA, performed by 6 surgeons through supine direct lateral or direct anterior approach. MDM bearings were used most often when impingement or subluxation was present intraoperatively despite proper component position. Another indication was a patient with planned activities who might be at a higher risk of instability postoperatively. RESULTS: A total of 127 MDM bearings were used in primary THA in 119 patients. Mean follow-up was 6.77 years (range 5-8.9). Five hips were revised, none of which were due to MDM bearing failure. Preoperative Hip dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement, Veterans RAND/Short Form 12 Physical Health Score and Mental Health Score increased from 25.81 to 52.40 (P < .0001), 30.42 to 44.50 (P < .0001), and 36.21 to 52.70 (P < .0001) at latest completed survey follow-up, respectively. CONCLUSION: This MDM bearing shows excellent functional outcomes at a minimum 5 years of follow-up with no bearing-related failures. It can be an excellent choice in primary THA specifically in females where the use of increased head size to prevent instability is not possible due to anatomical restrictions and liner thickness.

INTRODUCTION: acetabular fractures constitute between 0.3 and 0.6% of all observed fractures, being these injuries relatively infrequent. OBJECTIVE: to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes of surgical treatment of patients with acetabular fracture treated in our hospital with a minimal follow-up of 11.5 years. The secondary objective is to determine the rate of failure in the hip joint of these patients and establish risk factors that are involved. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 23 patients with acetabular fractures that were treated by open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) were retrospectively analysed. They were follow-up during an average of 14 years (range 11.5-17.5). Fractures were classified by Judet y Letournel as simple or complex. Clinical and radiological outcomes were analysed by Harris scale. RESULTS: We obtained an average of 81.90/100 on the Harris scale, aiming at better outcomes on simple fractures compare to those that were complex (p = 0.027). Higher scores were also achieved on those patients with an anatomical reduction (p = 0.033). Three patients required revision and placement of a total arthoplasty (13%). However, patients with body mass index (BMI) > 30 tend to achieve poor clinical results (p = 0.151). CONCLUSIONS: ORIF may be suggested for acetabular fractures since good clinical and radiological outcomes were recorded on a long-term follow-up. Complex fractures, non-anatomical reduction and BMI > 30 were identified as risk factors to coxarthrosis progression.
INTRODUCCIÓN: las fracturas de acetábulo constituyen entre el 0.3 y 0.6% total de fracturas observadas, siendo estás lesiones relativamente infrecuentes. OBJETIVO: evaluar los resultados clínico-radiológicos del tratamiento quirúrgico mediante osteosíntesis de fracturas acetabulares con un seguimiento mínimo de 11.5 años. El objetivo secundario fue determinar la tasa de fracaso de la cadera de estos pacientes e identificar los factores de riesgo implicados. MATERIA Y MÉTODOS: analizamos retrospectivamente una muestra de 23 pacientes intervenidos de fractura acetabular mediante reducción abierta y fijación interna, con un seguimiento medio de 14 años (11.5-17.5). Clasificamos las fracturas según Judet y Letournel en simples y complejas. Analizamos la evolución clínica y radiológica de estos pacientes mediante la escala de Harris. RESULTADOS: obtuvimos una puntuación media de 81.90/100, objetivamos mejores resultados en fracturas de trazo simple respecto a fracturas complejas (p = 0.027). Evidenciamos mejores resultados clínicos en los pacientes con una reducción anatómica de la fractura (86.9/100), respecto a los que no fue posible (74.38/100) (p = 0.033). Fue necesaria la reintervención con artroplastía por mala evolución clínica en tres pacientes (13%). Como predictores de mal pronóstico para el desarrollo de coxartrosis identificamos las fracturas complejas y la reducción no anatómica de la fractura (p < 0.05). Encontramos relación entre índice de masa corporal (IMC) > 30 con peores resultados funcionales (p = 0.151). CONCLUSIONES: el tratamiento quirúrgico de pacientes tratados con fracturas acetabulares presenta buenos resultados clínicos y radiológicos a largo plazo. Como factores de riesgo para la progresión de coxartrosis con suficiente impronta clínica como para ser necesaria una artroplastía identificamos, las fracturas complejas, la reducción no anatómica y un IMC > 30.

Introducción: El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los resultados clínicos, radiográficos y funcionales en pacientes <20 años sometidos a artroplastia total de cadera con vástago femoral tipo 2B corto no cementado. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de 13 pacientes (16 artroplastias totales de cadera) operados entre enero de 2006 y enero de 2021. La edad media y el índice de masa corporal eran de 16.5 ± 2.5 años y 22,74 ± 4,06 kg/m2, respectivamente. El seguimiento medio fue de 43.3 meses (rango 12-128, DE ± 33.45). Se analizaron las indicaciones quirúrgicas, y los resultados funcionales y radiográficos. La supervivencia del implante se calculó con la estimación de Kaplan-Meier. Resultados: La indicación predominante fue necrosis avascular (9/16 caderas [56%]), el 66% estaba asociada al uso prolongado de corticoides. El HHS para cadera mejoró significativamente de 33 ± 16,5 a 94 ± 5,6 (p <0,001). Diez (76%) pacientes usaban dispositivos de asistencia para caminar antes de la artroplastia, pero ninguno los necesitaba al final del seguimiento. Se observó radiolucidez en un componente acetabular sin repercusión clínica hasta el final del seguimiento. No se registraron signos radiográficos de aflojamiento del componente femoral. La supervivencia del implante fue del 100% hasta el final del seguimiento. Conclusiones: La artroplastia total de cadera primaria con un vástago femoral corto no cementado en pacientes <20 años con artrosis avanzada de cadera logró resultados equiparables a los ya publicados, con la particularidad de que es un procedimiento menos invasivo y ahorra capital óseo femoral.

Introduction: To our knowledge, there is no published literature on the outcomes of short-stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients under 20 years old. This study aimed to analyze clinical, radiological, and functional outcomes in patients under 20 years of age undergoing THA with a short uncemented 2B femoral stem. Materials and Methods: We carried out a retrospective study of 13 patients (16 THAs) treated between January 2006 and January 2021. The mean age and BMI were 16.5±2.5 years and 22.74±4.06 kg/m2, respectively. The mean follow-up was 43.3 months (range 12-128, SD ± 33.45). Surgical indications, as well as functional and radiologic outcomes, were analyzed. Implant survival was calculated with the Kaplan-Meier estimate. Results: The predominant indication was avascular necrosis (9/16 hips [56%]), of which 66% were associated with prolonged use of cor-ticosteroids. Eight (50%) of the cases had undergone surgeries before the THA. The Harris hip score improved significantly from 33±16.5 to 94±5.6 (p<0.001). Ten (76%) patients required assistive devices to walk preoperatively, and no patient required them at the end of follow-up. Radiolucency was evident in one acetabular component, without clinical implications. There were no signs of femoral component loosening. The implant survival was 100% at the last follow-up. Conclusions: Short stems in primary THAs in patients under 20 years of age with advanced hip osteoarthritis showed clinical, functional, and radiological outcomes comparable to those previously reported in the literature for conventional stems, with the particularity of being less invasive and sparing femoral bone stock.

Introducción: La estabilidad del componente femoral y su resistencia al hundimiento son factores críticos para lograr una correcta osteointegración y el éxito clínico de la artroplastia total de cadera no cementada. Hay pocos estudios que evalúen los resultados con vástagos de fabricación nacional, aun los de corto y mediano plazo. El objetivo de este estudio fue realizar un análisis clínico y radiográfico de pacientes sometidos a un reemplazo total de cadera con implante de un componente femoral de fabricación nacional (CEMENTFREE®). Materiales y métodos: Se llevó a cabo un estudio retrospectivo con pacientes sometidos a un reemplazo total de cadera con vástago CEMENTFREE®, entre enero de 2015 y agosto de 2020, a cargo del mismo cirujano y en la misma institución. Resultados: Se implantaron 46 vástagos sin cementación en 42 pacientes (rango etario: 60-81 años). El seguimiento promedio fue de 3 años (mín. 1 año, máx. 5 años). Aplicando el Harris Hip Score se observó una franca mejoría (promedio 47 en el preoperatorio y 93 después de la cirugía). La tasa de supervivencia fue del 100% a los 5 años. Conclusión: La artroplastia de cadera con el vástago CEMENTFREE® de fabricación nacional ha demostrado ser una opción comparable con otros vástagos importados, en cuanto a los resultados clínicos y radiográficos a corto plazo. Resta evaluar los resultados a mediano y largo plazo. Nivel de Evidencia: IV
Introduction: The stability of the femoral component and its resistance to subsidence are critical factors to achieve correct osseointegration and subsequent clinical success in cementless total hip arthroplasty. Few studies have evaluated the results of nationally manufactured stems, even in the short and medium term. Our objective is to clinically and radiologically analyze patients undergoing a total hip replacement with a nationally manufactured femoral component (Cementfree® stem).materials and methods: We carried out a retrospective study on patients who had undergone a total hip replacement with the Cementfree® stem between January 2015 and August 2020 by the same surgeon and at the same institution.Results: 46 uncemented stems were implanted in 42 patients with an age range between 60 and 81 years. The average follow-up was 3 years, with a minimum of 1 year and a maximum of 5 years. There was an evident improvement in the Harris Hip Score (an average of 47 preoperatively vs. 93 after surgery). The revision of the stem for aseptic loosening, in the Kaplan Meier analysis, demonstrated a 100% survival rate at 5 years. Conclusion: According to the results obtained in this research, hip arthroplasty with the nationally manufactured Cementfree® stem has proven to be an option comparable to other imported stems in terms of short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. An evaluation of the outcomes in the medium and long term is pending. Level of Evidence: IV

INTRODUCTION: The most feared complication in hip arthroplasty after septic arthritis is septic failure. It is considered that the two-stage treatment is the accepted treatment for acute septic hip arthritis. The objective in this work is to establish a therapeutic guideline for septic arthritis in native hips, proposing a two-stage treatment for acute, and a one-stage treatment for quiescent. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Observational, descriptive, retrospective study. We analyzed all patients who underwent total primary hip replacement between June 1997 and June 2016. We selected those patients who had a diagnosis of septic arthritis of the hip prior to surgery (group 1: acute septic arthritis; group 2: quiescent septic arthritis). RESULTS: Eight hips in group 1 with a follow-up of one to six years. Each patient fulfilled the antibiotic treatment between the placement of the spacer and the definitive prosthetic replacement, and, in all the cases, the remission of the infection was verified. On the other hand, 12 hips in group 2, the time between the treated infection and the prosthetic replacement varied between five and 46 years. The femoral heads sent to culture were in all cases negative. CONCLUSIONS: In the last 20 years, we have obtained satisfactory results, both in the treatment of acute septic arthritis and in its sequelae, interpreting them as pathologies of the same origin but with a different treatment. Both treatments are adequate, as long as the therapeutic protocol established for each of the groups is respected.
INTRODUCCIÓN: La complicación más temida en la artroplastia de cadera después de la artritis séptica (activa o sus secuelas) es el fracaso séptico. El tratamiento en dos etapas, una vez resuelto el proceso infeccioso, es el tratamiento aceptado para la etapa aguda. El objetivo de este trabajo es establecer una pauta terapéutica para la artritis séptica en las caderas nativas, proponiendo un tratamiento en dos etapas para agudos, y un tratamiento de una etapa para las secuelas. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Realizamos un estudio observacional, descriptivo y retrospectivo. Analizamos a todos los pacientes que se sometieron a un reemplazo primario total de cadera en nuestra institución entre Junio de 1997 y Junio de 2016 con un diagnóstico de artritis séptica de la cadera antes de la cirugía (grupo 1: artritis séptica aguda; grupo 2: secuelas de artritis séptica). RESULTADOS: Grupo 1: ocho caderas, con un diagnóstico agudo de artritis séptica y seguimiento de uno a seis años. Se cumplió con el tratamiento antibiótico entre la colocación del espaciador y el reemplazo protésico definitivo, y, en todos los casos, se verificó la remisión de la infección. Grupo 2: 12 caderas, El tiempo entre la infección tratada y el reemplazo de prótesis varió entre cinco y 46 años. Las cabezas femorales enviadas para cultivo eran en todos los casos negativas. CONCLUSIONES: En los últimos 20 años, hemos obtenido resultados satisfactorios, tanto en el tratamiento de la artritis séptica aguda como en sus secuelas, interpretándolas como patologías del mismo origen pero con un tratamiento diferente. Ambos tratamientos son adecuados, siempre y cuando se respete el protocolo terapéutico establecido para cada uno de los grupos.

BACKGROUND: We assessed the association between: the severity of hip chondral or labral pathology with dynamic hip muscle strength or quality of life in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome scheduled for hip arthroscopy. We also assessed the association between dynamic hip muscle strength with quality of life. METHODS: Eighty-three participants with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome scheduled for hip arthroscopy were included. We measured dynamic hip abduction and adduction muscle strength with an isokinetic dynamometer (Nm/kg), and quality of life with the iHoT-33 questionnaire. The severity of hip chondrolabral pathologies was scored using the modified Beck classification. Linear regression analyses were conducted to assess the association between severity of hip chondral or labral pathology with dynamic hip muscle strength and quality of life. FINDINGS: The regression analyses showed no association between the (i) severity of hip chondral (adjusted r2: 0.14) or labral (adjusted r2: 0.08) pathology and quality of life (P > 0.05), (ii) between the severity of hip chondral or labral pathology and dynamic hip abduction and adduction muscle strength (P > 0.05). Significant correlation was observed for quality of life and hip abduction (adjusted r2:0.29; P < 0.001) or adduction (adjusted r2: 0.32; P < 0.001) muscle strength. INTERPRETATION: The severity of hip chondral or labral pathologies were not associated with quality of life or dynamic hip muscle strength in participants with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. Greater dynamic hip abduction and adduction muscle strength were associated with better quality of life in participants with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome scheduled for hip arthroscopy.

BACKGROUND: Early containment surgery has become increasingly popular in Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (LCPD), especially for older children. These procedures treat the proximal femur, the acetabulum, or both, and most surgeons endorse the same surgical option regardless of an individual patient's anatomy. This "one-surgery-fits-all" approach fails to consider potential variations in baseline anatomy that may make one option more sensible than another. We sought to describe hip morphology in a large series of children with newly diagnosed LCPD, hypothesizing that variation in anatomy may support the concept of anatomic-specific containment. METHODS: A retrospective review of a prospectively collected multicenter database was conducted for patients aged 6 to 11 at diagnosis. To assess anatomy before significant morphologic changes secondary to the disease itself, only patients in Waldenström stages IA/IB were included. Standard hip radiographic measurements including acetabular index, lateral center-edge angle, proximal femoral neck-shaft angle (NSA), articulotrochanteric quartiles, and extrusion index (EI) were made on printed anteroposterior pelvis radiographs. Age-specific percentiles were calculated for these measures using published norms. Significant outliers (≤10th/≥90th percentile) were reported where applicable. RESULTS: A total of 168 patients with mean age at diagnosis of 8.0±1.3 years met inclusion criteria (81.5% male). Mean acetabular index for the entire cohort was 16.8±4.1 degrees; 58 hips (34.5%) were significantly dysplastic compared with normative data. Mean lateral center-edge angle was 15.9±5.2 degrees at diagnosis; 110 (65.5%) were ≤10th percentile indicating dysplasia (by this metric). Mean NSA overall was 136.5±7.0 degrees. Fifty-one (30.4%) and 20 (11.9%) hips were significantly varus (≤10th percentile) or valgus (≥90th percentile), respectively. Thirty-five hips (20.8%) were the third articulo-trochanteric quartiles or higher suggesting a higher-riding trochanter at baseline. Mean EI was 15.5%±9.0%, while 63 patients (37.5%) had an EI ≥20%. CONCLUSIONS: The present study finds significant variation in baseline anatomy in children with early-stage LCPD, including a high prevalence of coexisting acetabular dysplasia as well as high/low NSAs. These variations suggest that the "one-surgery-fits-all" approach may lack specificity for a particular patient; a potentially wiser option may be an anatomic-specific containment operation (eg, acetabular-sided osteotomy for coexisting dysplasia, varus femoral osteotomy for valgus NSA). LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.

BACKGROUND: Although pelvic osteotomy (PO) is an important surgical procedure that can alleviate symptoms and potentially slow progression of osteoarthritis in patients with development dysplasia of the hip, some patients eventually require conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to determine the outcome of conversion THA in patients with prior PO. METHODS: Forty nine patients with a history of prior PO who underwent conversion THA at a single institution were matched at a 1:3 ratio based on the date of surgery, age, gender, and body mass index with 147 developmental dysplasia of the hip patients who underwent primary THA without prior PO. A retrospective chart review was performed to compare outcomes at a minimum follow-up of 2 years. RESULTS: Patients with prior PO required more supplemental screw fixation for the acetabular component (59.2% vs 38.1%, P = .016), more autologous bone grafting (24.5% vs 11.6%, P = .048), had a longer mean operative time (106.0 vs 79.8 minutes, P < .001), and greater estimated blood loss (350.0 vs 206.8 mL, P = .015). Patients with prior PO had smaller cup version angle (26.0° vs 29.0°, P = .012) and greater discrepancy in the limb length (10.3 vs 7.26 mm, P = .041). Eight hips (16.3%) with prior PO and 6 (4.1%) without osteotomy required reoperation (P = .008). There was no difference in outcome scores at the latest follow-up. CONCLUSION: THA after prior PO is technically demanding, leading to longer operative times, greater blood loss, and variation in implant placement. Although functional outcomes are similar, THA after a prior PO is more likely to require reoperation. CONCLUSION: THA after prior PO is technically demanding, leading to longer operative times, greater blood loss, and variation in implant placement. Although functional outcomes are similar, THA after a prior PO is more likely to require reoperation.

BACKGROUND: Metal artifact reduction sequence (MARS) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently gained increased utilization as a screening modality in patients with a total hip arthroplasty (THA). Fluid collections have been documented in asymptomatic patients with various bearing surfaces. The purpose of this study is to determine the frequency and types of MARS MRI-documented abnormalities in asymptomatic patients with a ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) THA. METHODS: Thirty-seven patients (42 hips) with a minimum 2-year follow-up after THA with CoC THA implants were enrolled in this study. The inclusion criteria were the absence of hip pain and the availability of appropriate follow-up radiographs. All patients underwent a MARS MRI. Abnormalities were documented using a previously described method. RESULTS: Fluid collections were observed in 8 (19%) asymptomatic hips in this cohort. Four of the 8 hips demonstrated intracapsular synovitis, and 3 of these hips had a thickened synovium. Extra-articular fluid collections with direct intra-articular communication were identified in 4 hips, with 2 of these hips demonstrating synovial thickening. No signs of osteolysis were noted on radiographs or the MARS MRI scans. CONCLUSION: Asymptomatic fluid collections occur in patients after CoC THA similar to other bearing surfaces. We continue to follow these patients in an effort to determine the clinical significance and natural history of these findings. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Diagnostic Level IV.

BACKGROUND: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the most effective treatment option for patients with symptomatic osteoarthritis after a prior femoroacetabular osteoplasty (FAO). This study evaluated clinical outcomes of THA after a prior FAO and compared the results with a matched group of patients who underwent THA with no prior surgical procedures in the affected hip. METHODS: By reviewing our prospectively maintained database, we identified 74 hips (69 patients) that underwent THA after previous FAO between 2004 and 2017. They were matched 1:3 to a control group of primary THA with no history of any procedures on the same hip based on age, sex, body mass index, date of surgery, Charlson comorbidity index, surgical approach, and acetabular and femoral component type. At minimum 2-year follow-up, modified Harris Hip Score, 90-day readmission, and revision THA for any reason were compared between the groups. RESULTS: The median time interval between FAO and subsequent THA was 1.64 years. There was no significant difference in preoperative Harris Hip Score between patients in the case and control cohorts. At the latest follow-up, the median modified Harris Hip Score was 77.6 in the case group and 96.2 in the control, and the difference was not statistically significant. None of the patients in the case group developed infection. 7 patients in the case group required additional procedures at any point, compared with 15 in the control. CONCLUSION: THA after prior FAO has similar outcomes to primary THA in patients with no prior procedures in the affected hip. THA can be performed safely with excellent outcome in patients with a history of FAO.

Introducción: La mala alineación de los tallos femorales no cementados sigue siendo un tema controvertido. Algunos autores han comunicado una inadecuada osteointegración y hundimiento en los tallos en varo y otros no encontraron dichos efectos adversos, pese a la incorrecta alineación. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron determinar la prevalencia de tallos no cementados con cobertura total de hidroxiapatita en deseje coronal y mostrar los resultados clínico-radiográficos a largo plazo. materiales y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo entre 2006 y 2009. Se analizaron 220 reemplazos totales de cadera primarios con tallos no cementados con cobertura completa de hidroxiapatita. La alineación coronal fue analizada con radiografías anteroposteriores de ambas caderas en 10° de rotación interna. Se registraron datos, como osteointegración, hundimiento, osteólisis femoral proximal e hipertrofia cortical. Para el análisis clínico se utilizó el Harris Hip Score. El análisis de supervivencia contempló la necesidad de revisión por cualquier causa. Resultados: La prevalencia de tallos en deseje fue del 32,3%, con mayoría de implantes en varo (73,3%). El Harris Hip Score tuvo un incremento estadísticamente significativo (41,05 ± 6,5 vs. 90,05 ± 2,5; p <0,01). El 73,1% de los tallos desarrollaron una fijación ósea estable. Se observó osteólisis femoral proximal en el 3% de los casos. Hubo un 3% de fracturas periprotésicas femorales. La supervivencia de la prótesis fue del 100% a los 10.9 años. Conclusión: Los tallos no cementados con cobertura total de hidroxiapatita toleran adecuadamente la alineación coronal en varo/valgo a largo plazo. Nivel de Evidencia: IV
Introduction: Coronal malalignment of non-cemented stems remains controversial. It's been reported that femoral stems implanted with varus or valgus developed subsidence and lack of integration with femoral bone. The purpose of this study was to calculate prevalence of coronal malalignment in cementless, fully coated with hydroxialapatyte (HA) femoral stems focusing in their long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. Materials and methods: A retrospective study was performed, assessing 220 primaries total hip replacements with non-cemented, fully coated with HA, femoral stems between 2006 and 2009. Coronal alignment was assessed with hips antero-posterior views with 10º of internal rotation of lower limbs. We registered data about subsidence, proximal femoral osteolysis and cortical hipertrophy. Functional outcomes were assessed with Harris Hip Score (HHS). Free revision rate implant survival was calculated. Results: Prevalence of femoral stems with malalignment was 32.3%. HHS showed an statistically significant increase after surgery (41.05 ± 6.5 versus 90.05 ± 2.5; p <0.01). There were 73.1% of femoral stems that achieved a bone stable fixation. We observed proximal femoral osteolysis in 3.0% of the patients and there were 3% of periprosthetic fractures. Free-revision survival rate was 100% at 10.9 years of follow-up. Conclusion: Cementless, fully coated with HA femoral stems with varus/valgus malalignment achieves good long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. Level of Evidence: IV
