ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Component malposition in total hip arthroplasty (THA) can lead to dislocation, early implant failure, and revision surgery. As the surgical approach might affect the targeted combined anteversion (CA) of THA components, the present study aimed to evaluate the optimal CA threshold to avoid anterior dislocation in primary THA performed through a direct anterior approach (DAA).METHODS:
A total of 1,176 THAs in 1,147 consecutive patients (men 593, women 554) who had an average age of 63 years (range, 24 to 91) and a mean body mass index of 29 (range, 15 to 48) were identified. Medical records were reviewed for dislocation, whereas postoperative radiographs were assessed to measure the acetabular inclination and CA using a previously validated radiographic method.RESULTS:
An anterior dislocation occurred in 19 patients at an average of 40 days postoperatively. The average CA in patients who did and did not have a dislocation was 66 ± 8° and 45 ± 11°, respectively (P < .001). In 5 of 19 of the patients, a THA was performed for secondary osteoarthritis and 17 of 19 had a 28-mm femoral head. A CA ≥ 60° yielded a sensitivity of 93% and specificity of 90% for predicting an anterior dislocation in the present cohort. A CA ≥ 60° was associated with a significantly higher risk of anterior dislocation (odds ratio = 75.6; P < .001) compared to patients who had a CA<60 points.CONCLUSION:
The optimal CA to avoid anterior dislocations in THA performed through the DAA should be less than 60°. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Cross-sectional study, Level III.Palabras clave
