Abstract
The impact of seizure disorders on pediatric patients who undergo hip dysplasia surgery has yet to be elucidated. This study focused on identifying the effect of seizure disorders on the incidence of complications following surgical management of hip dysplasia. Pediatric patients undergoing surgical treatment for hip dysplasia from 2012 to 2019 were identified in the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-Pediatric database. Patients were divided into two cohorts: patients with and patients without a seizure disorder. Patient demographics, comorbidities and postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Of 10 853 pediatric patients who underwent hip dysplasia surgery, 8117 patients (74.8%) did not have a seizure disorder whereas 2736 (25.2%) had a seizure disorder. Bivariate analyses revealed that compared to patients without a seizure disorder, patients with a seizure disorder were at increased risk of developing surgical site infections, pneumonia, unplanned reintubation, urinary tract infection, postoperative transfusion, sepsis, extended operation time and length of stay and readmission ( P < 0.05 for all). Following adjustment for patient demographics and comorbidities on multivariate analysis, there were no differences in any postoperative complications between pediatric patients with and without a seizure disorder. There were no differences in 30-day postoperative complications in patients with and without a seizure disorder. Due to potential decreased bone mineral density as an effect of antiepileptic drugs and the risk of femur fracture during surgery for hip dysplasia, pediatric patients with a seizure disorder should be closely monitored as they may be more susceptible to injury. Level of Evidence: III.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In hip preservation surgery, the term "borderline hip dysplasia" was used when the lateral center edge angle (LCEA), historically described by Wiberg, measured 18-25°. In recent years, several radiographic parameters have been described to assess the antero posterior coverage of the femoral head, for example, the anterior and posterior wall index (AWI and PWI). This allowed an increasingly comprehensive understanding of acetabular morphology and a questioning of the borderline definition. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective review of 397 consecutive hips was performed, all treated with triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) due to symptomatic hip dysplasia. On all preoperative pelvic radiographs with a LCEA of 18-25°, acetabular index (AI), AWI and PWI were measured. With these values, the hips were categorized into laterally, antero-laterally and postero-laterally dysplastic and stratified by gender. Intra- and interobserver correlation of the parameters was analyzed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS According to LCEA, 192 hips were identified as "borderline dysplastic". Based on AWI and PWI, the categorization resulted in 116 laterally dysplastic (60.4%), 33 antero-laterally (17.2%) and 43 postero-laterally dysplastic hips (22.4%). Gender stratification revealed that male acetabula seemed to be slightly more postero-laterally deficient than female (mean PWI 0.80 vs 0.89; p = 0.017). ICC confirmed highly accurate and reproducible readings of all parameters. CONCLUSION The rather high proportion of symptomatic hips labelled borderline dysplastic suggested, that there might be substantial acetabular deficiency not recognizable by LCEA. Comprehensive deformity analysis using LCEA, AI, AWI and PWI showed, that 40% of these hips were deficient either antero-laterally or postero-laterally. Male acetabula were more deficient postero-laterally than female.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia is the most common cause of secondary hip osteoarthritis. The Ganz periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a well-established procedure that allows a reliable and reproducible correction of the complex pathology. The promising medium and long-term good treatment results are offset by the potential risk of complications from an invasive pelvic procedure. Considering the mainly young age of the patients, knowledge of the possible complications and the resulting adequate therapy is crucial. TREATMENT DEVELOPMENT The continuous development of surgical techniques and increase in overall surgical experience alongside the appreciation of critical surgical steps have led to a substantial reduction of serious complications. In addition, to improve patient outcome, a greater understanding of the associated pathologies that may be related to hip dysplasia is essential.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low back pain (LBP) from hip and spinal disorders has been one of the main reasons for visiting physicians in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). It is essential to identify the LBP improvement among all grades of DDH patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) at 5-year follow-up. METHODS The study included 407 hips of 306 patients (38 males, 268 females) who underwent THA between July 2007 and December 2016. There were 65 hips in Crowe I, 61 hips in Crowe II, 69 hips in Crowe III, and 212 hips in Crowe IV. One hundred and fourteen hips received subtrochanteric shortening. Patients included 101 bilateral THA (BTHA) and 205 unilateral THA (UTHA). The evaluation was performed through Back Pain Function Scale (BPFS), Harris hip score, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), operative data and radiographic examinations. RESULTS The BPFS in patients of unilateral Crowe III and IV relieved significantly more (p < 0.05). However, the BPFS in patients with bilateral symmetry DDH hips relieved significantly less than other groups of DDH hips (p < 0.05). Harris in hips of Crowe II improved significantly more (p < 0.05). The VAS in hips of Crowe II and III improved significantly more (p < 0.05). The unilateral THA surgical time, blood loss, blood transfusion, and osteotomy number and length in Crowe IV were significantly more (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION THA is reliable to relieve LBP in DDH patients of unilateral Crowe III and IV; however, in patients with unilateral Crowe I, Crowe II, and bilateral DDH hips, the LBP improvements were limited. This should assist shared decision-making between orthopedic surgeons and patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level II.

Abstract
Pelvic osteotomies are an established treatment for symptomatic adult hip dysplasia with a promising long-term outcome. Results depend not only on the achieved acetabular reorientation but also on patient-factors like preoperative joint condition (degree of osteoarthritis and joint congruency) and age. Additionally, the diagnosis and appropriate therapy of impingement-associated hip deformities is essential in order to achieve good mid- and long-term outcomes. The influence of chondrolabral pathology on the outcome of pelvic osteotomies is not yet defined. Symptomatic patients with residual dysplasia after previous pelvic or acetabular osteotomies can benefit from an additional osteotomy, although results can be worse in comparison to prior unoperated joints. Obesity can make surgery more demanding and increases the complication profile of PAO, although it has no influence on the postoperative outcome. Regarding the overall prognosis after an osteotomy, the consideration of combined risk factors is superior to the concentration on individual factors alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The current study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of closed reduction and cast immobilization for patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who failed Pavlik harness treatment. METHODS Patients with DDH who underwent cast immobilization under general anaesthesia after the failure of the Pavlik harness or Tübingen brace treatment between January 2015 and December 2020 were retrospectively recruited. General information, including Graf classification of initial diagnosis, initial treatment, age of cast immobilization, IHDI classification, AI index, avascular necrosis (AVN), and residual dysplasia, was collected. The incidence of AVN and late acetabular dysplasia (LACD) was also estimated. Moreover, factors related to AVN and LACD were investigated by multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Thirty-four patients (47 hips) were finally included in the current study. Of these patients, 31 hips (66.0%) were successfully treated with closed reduction and cast immobilization. Open reduction was successfully performed in 16 hips (34.0%). Till the latest follow-up, LACD and AVN were found in 13 (27.7%) and 10 (21.3%) hips, respectively. In the open reduction group, type III and IV of the IHDI classification and type IV of the Ultrasound Graf classification were significantly higher when compared with the closed reduction group. Multiple logistic regression showed that failure of closed reduction was related to the initial types of the Ultrasound Graf and IHDI classifications. CONCLUSIONS Although the success rate of closed reduction after early harness failure in DDH is only 66%, we still advocate closed reduction as a first-line treatment for children who have failed sling treatment. Even if closed reduction fails, open reduction can still achieve acceptable results.

Abstract
Hip dysplasia is known to lead to premature osteoarthritis. Computational models of joint mechanics have documented elevated contact stresses in dysplastic hips, but elevated stress has not been directly associated with regional cartilage degeneration. The purpose of this study was to determine if a relationship exists between elevated contact stress and intra-articular cartilage damage in patients with symptomatic dysplasia and femoroacetabular impingement. Discrete element analysis was used to compute hip contact stresses during the stance phase of walking gait for 15 patients diagnosed with acetabular dysplasia and femoral head-neck offset deformity. Contact stresses were summed over the duration of the walking gait cycle and then scaled by patient age to obtain a measure of chronic cartilage contact stress exposure. Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between contact stress exposure and cartilage damage in each of six acetabular subregions that had been evaluated arthroscopically for cartilage damage at the time of surgical intervention. A significant correlation (R2 = 0.423, p < 0.001) was identified between chondromalacia grade and chronic stress-time exposure above both a 1 MPa damage threshold and a 2 MPa-years accumulated damage threshold. Furthermore, an over-exposure threshold of 15% regional contact area exceeding the 1 and 2 MPa-years threshold values resulted in correct identification of cartilage damage in 83.3% (55/66) of the acetabular subregions loaded during gait. These results suggest corrective surgery to alleviate impingement and reduce chronic contact stress exposures below these damage-inducing thresholds could mitigate further cartilage damage in patients with hip dysplasia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia is challenging to treat with total hip arthroplasty via the direct anterior approach (DAA). Reconstructing the former anatomy while restoring the acetabular bone stock for future revisions in this young patient collective combined with the known advantages of the DAA would be desirable. The purpose of this study was to analyze the feasibility, radiographic outcome and clinical outcome of primary uncemented total hip arthroplasty with bulk femoral head autograft for acetabular augmentation through a DAA with a minimal follow-up of 12 months. METHODS A retrospective, consecutive series from March 2006 to March 2018 of 29 primary total hip arthroplasty with acetabular augmentation with bulk femoral head autograft through a direct anterior approach was identified. All complications, reoperations and failures were analyzed. Radiographic and clinical outcome was measured. RESULTS 24 patients (29 hips) with a mean age of 43 (18-75) years and a mean follow-up of 35 months (12-137) were included. Surgical indication was secondary osteoarthritis for developmental dysplasia of the hip (Hartofilakidis Grade A (n = 19), B (n = 10)) in all cases. We noted no conversion of the approach, no dislocation and no acetabular loosening. The center of rotation was significantly distalized by a mean of 9 mm (0-23) and significantly medialized by a mean of 18 mm (6-29). The bone graft was fully integrated after 12 months in all cases. CONCLUSION Acetabular reconstruction with femoral head autograft in primary THA through a direct anterior approach seems to be a reliable option for the treatment of secondary osteoarthritis in patients with DDH Hartofilakidis grade A and B. Prospective cohort studies with a large sample population and a long-term follow-up are necessary to confirm our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a major complication after closed reduction for developmental dysplasia of the hip. The factors that predispose to AVN remain controversial. The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors, especially patient factors, such as age at reduction, grade of dislocation, and ossific nucleus development, related to AVN. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed children with dysplasia of the hip treated by closed reduction between 1997 and 2006. AVN was evaluated using Salter criteria and Kalamchi and MacEwen classification. Related factors were analyzed. RESULTS One hundred and eight children (140 hips) with an average age of 16.6 months at closed reduction (range: 6-24 mo) were included in the study. For an average duration of 10.1 years (range 7-16 y) of follow-up, 44 hips (31.4%) developed AVN. Grade II or higher AVN occurred in 14 hips (10%). The incidence of AVN increased with the grade of dislocation ( P =0.022) and underdevelopment of the ossific nucleus ( P <0.001). Underdevelopment of the ossific nucleus was also found to be positively correlated with the dislocation grade ( P =0.047). The age at the time of reduction, sex, and side were not significant factors. Children who underwent secondary operation were all older than 1 year at reduction. CONCLUSIONS High-grade dislocation correlates with the underdevelopment of the ossific nucleus. Patients with these 2 characteristics are predisposed to AVN. As underdevelopment of the ossific nucleus occurred regardless of age, it is not advisable to delay reduction because it does not alter the AVN rate, and instead, it increases the secondary operation rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental hip dysplasia (DDH) is shown to have osseous and neural abnormalities but literature is sparse with investigation of vascular structures. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate periacetabular vascular structures. METHODS By computerised tomography angiography (CTA), 13 highly dislocated hips of 11 patients' iliac bone to external iliac and obturatory artery and vein proximities were measured and compared with the same measurements of 20 healthy hips of 12 patients. Numbering from superior to inferior, a total of 7 axial images were created on the 2D CTA coronal images with 1 cm apart, the 4th being at the level of acetabular dome. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 53 (18-72) years. Dysplastic hips tended to have curved (53%) and healthy hips tended to have straight iliac arteries (p = 0.037). As compared to healthy hips, external iliac veins were significantly closer to the bone at all levels, but the external iliac arteries were closest at 1st to 4th levels (p < 0.001) in dysplastic hips. The course of the obturatory arteries was similar in both groups (p = 0.147). CONCLUSIONS The external iliac artery and vein is in close proximity to the iliac bone which dangers acetabular screw, acetabular reaming or retractor placement in highly dislocated hips. The surgeon should be aware of this proximity in operations of these hips to avoid vascular complications.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head in children less than 3 years of age with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) treated with closed reduction, open reduction alone and open reduction combined with osteotomy. We reviewed clinical trials from the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases (up to November 2020) that were related to closed reduction, open reduction alone and open reduction combined with osteotomy for the treatment of children under 3 years of age with DDH. The screening and quality evaluation of the literature were performed independently by two researchers. In case of disagreement, a third researcher resolved the discourse. Finally, the data were extracted, and the R software and GeMTC program package were used to conduct a network meta-analysis (NMA). The evaluation index was the incidence of AVN. Fourteen articles were included. The NMA showed that in terms of the incidence of AVN, cases treated with open reduction alone were higher than those with closed reduction, and the difference was statistically significant. Open reduction alone had the highest probability (94.4%) of having the highest incidence of AVN, followed by open reduction combined with osteotomy (5.5%) and closed reduction (0.1%). In the treatment of children with DDH who are younger than 3 years old, open reduction alone is most likely to be the treatment with the highest incidence of AVN, followed by open reduction combined with osteotomy. The closed reduction had the smallest probability of AVN.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the degree to which conventional radiography can represent the acetabular and femoral rotational alignment profile between dysplastic and borderline-dysplastic hips. METHODS A retrospective trial was conducted including 56 borderline-dysplastic and dysplastic hips at a mean age of 28.9 years (range from 18 to 46). Inclusion criteria consisted of symptomatic patients with hip dysplasia undergoing 2-dimensional radiography as well as computed tomography. On radiography, the lateral center edge angle, acetabular hip index, hip lateralization index, acetabular index angle, and the Sharp angle were measured, and the presence of a crossover sign was noted. In computed tomography, the full rotational profile of the lower limb was measured. RESULTS Significant correlations were observed in the overall analysis between the anteversion of the acetabulum and the hip lateralization index (mean 0.56, coefficient of regression (CoR) -32.35, p = 0.011) as well as the acetabular index angle with a mean of 11.50 (CoR 0.544, p = 0.018). Similar results were found in the subgroup of dysplastic hips with an acetabular index angle of 13.9 (p = 0.013, CoR 0.74). For the borderline-dysplastic group, no significant correlations between the pelvis radiography and rotational CT were seen. CONCLUSION Although the femoral and acetabular torsion cannot be predicted from x-rays, the anteversion of the acetabulum correlates with the acetabular index angle, the hip lateralization index, and eventually the beta angle in dysplastic hips. For borderline-dysplastic hips, such results did not show up, which strongly illustrates the need for computed tomography in these cases. KEY POINTS • Much of the current literature focuses on rotational alignment especially with respect to the femur and tibia in healthy patients, although little is known about the acetabular, femoral, and tibial torsion in dysplastic hips. • This is the first study showing significant correlations between the anteversion of the acetabulum and the hip lateralization index as well as the acetabular inclination angle. Also, it is the first study to provide a mechanism for estimation of the torsion of the acetabulum with plain radiography in dysplastic hips. • In borderline-dysplastic hips, no significant correlation was found, which raises the question if a simple x-ray has enough validity to address the acetabular deformity with surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is important to maintain soft-tissue balance and prevent muscle contractures after hip reduction during total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). To make such hips functional and durable, the techniques to achieve soft-tissue balance were studied to create an algorithm for intraoperative 2-stage evaluation of muscle contractures, specifying the optimal order for contracture release. METHODS Between February 2011 and March 2015, we evaluated 64 patients (75 hips) with DDH for muscle contractures as they underwent THA. Following acetabular implantation, femoral osteotomy was applied of various lengths according to limb-length discrepancy. First, the distal part of the femur was prepared by broaching, and the hip was then reduced. The tensor fascia lata, rectus femoris, sartorius, hamstrings, and adductor muscles were evaluated, and any contractures were released. A trial conjoining of the distal and proximal parts of the femur was made, and the hip was reduced again. Finally, the iliopsoas and abductor muscles were evaluated, and contractures were released. RESULTS The mean follow-up duration was 4.6 years. Preoperative and postoperative Harris Hip Scores were 52 and 87, respectively. Limb-length discrepancy was mean 4.2 cm preoperatively, and <1 cm postoperatively. All contractures were released according to our newly developed algorithm. CONCLUSIONS It is challenging to pinpoint the main muscle causing contractures, because other muscles acting on the hip joint have similar secondary functions. The method we describe here may provide better and more specific restoration of muscle function in a hypoplastic hemipelvis in DDH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to measure the indices of radiographic developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in a cross-sectional study of an elderly Japanese population. METHODS Hip radiographs of 427 informed, voluntary Japanese community-dwelling individuals (279 female and 148 male) aged 50-96 years-old were obtained from Miyagawa village in Japan through a health screening. The hip radiographs were measured by a custom-written, semi-automated MATLAB program. The center edge (CE) angle, acetabular roof obliquity (ARO), acetabular head index (AHI), and minimum joint space width (mJSW) were measured. We examined the associations between gender, side-of-hip, and age group on radiographic DDH and hip osteoarthritis (OA). RESULTS The mean CE angle was 31.0°. The mean ARO was 5.8°. The mean AHI was 88.2%. The mean mJSW was 4.0 mm. Of the total population, 29.9% had DDH and 4.0% had hip OA. Of those who had hip OA, 41.2% were secondary OA, and 58.8% were primary OA. The relationship between DDH and OA was not significant. CONCLUSION DDH is unlikely to be an important cause of hip OA in the present population-based study.

INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2022; 46:761-768. [PMID: 34988620 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-021-05271-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Much research has focused on quantifying the bony characteristics of patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Far less attention, however, has been paid to muscle abnormalities around the hip such as those in the gluteus medius (GM). METHODS We retrospectively examined clinical and imaging data, such as the age of onset and computed tomography (CT) findings, in 108 consecutive hips. Subjects for the control group were selected from our radiology database. Two readers independently evaluated the length (LGM), cross-sectional area (CSA), width (WGM), and thickness (TGM) of the GM and arm of GM (AGM) and angle of the GM activation (AOA) and bony parameters including the acetabulum-head index (AHI), lateral central edge angle (LCEA), acetabular index (AI), femoral offset (FO), and height of the rotation centre of femoral head (HCFH) among all cases using the imaging data. RESULTS The patient group included 108 hips. The AGM, LGM, CSA, and TGM were lower in the DDH patients, while AOA was higher. However, there was no significant difference in the WGM between the two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that AGM and AOA were independent factors affecting LCEA. The following regression equation was used: Y(LCEA) = 5.377 * X1 (AGM) - 0.310 * X2 (AOA) - 11.331. The mechanical characteristics of the GM and many bony parameters were significantly correlated (the AGM and AHI, LCEA, AI, FO, but not HCFH; AOA and AHI, LCEA, AI, but not FO or HCFH). The CSA was positively correlated with only HCFH. The rest were not statistical significance linear correlation. The multivariate regression results showed that the age of onset was positively correlated with AGM (r = 0.467). The regression equation used was Y = 9.0 * X (age of onset) - 11.4. CONCLUSION We found difference in the morphological and mechanical characteristics of the GM between hips with DDH and hips of normal morphology. Of note, the mechanical characteristics of the GM were influenced by bony parameters in patients with DDH.

Abstract
CASE A 34-year-old woman with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) presented with chronic left hip pain related to a femoral head cyst. The patient strongly preferred a joint-preserving option. Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) has shown reliable options for managing DDH, and femoral head fresh osteochondral allograft (FOCA) can be performed for cysts. We performed these procedures concomitantly for the first time. At 1-year follow-up, the patient had functional, pain-free motion and high satisfaction. CONCLUSION PAO and femoral head FOCA can be performed concomitantly with a common, anterior hip approach. They are a viable, joint-preserving option for patients with DDH and osteochondral lesions.

Abstract
CASE Approximately three-quarters of neonates with unstable hips will spontaneously stabilize without treatment in the first few weeks of life. This report presents the long-term follow-up of an infant with developmental dysplasia of the hips that stabilized at an older age and without any orthopaedic treatment. CONCLUSIONS Factors contributing to the spontaneous stabilization in this case included the patient's self-selected lower extremity position of comfort with hips flexed, abducted, and externally rotated; her delayed walking; and her light body weight.

Abstract
CASE A 1-week-old female patient presented to our clinic with bilateral dislocated hips and was subsequently treated in a Pavlik harness. Harness treatment failed requiring a closed reduction and spica cast application. In the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), the patient was found to have a right humerus fracture. Six weeks after cast application, the patient was found to have nondisplaced bilateral femur fractures prompting a genetics evaluation. The patient was subsequently found to have osteogenesis imperfecta type 3. CONCLUSION Perioperative fractures in pediatric patients should raise suspicion for osteogenesis imperfecta. Early diagnosis can improve the management of hip dysplasia and allow for early bisphosphonate therapy.

Abstract
RATIONALE Exact restoration of the rotation center in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is technically challenging in patients with end-stage osteoarthritis due to developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), especially in the Crowe type II and III procedures. The technical difficulty is attributable to the complex acetabular changes. In this study, a novel 3-dimensional (3D) printed integral customized acetabular prosthesis for anatomical rotation restoration in THA for DDH Crowe type III was developed using patient-specific Computer-aided design and additive manufacturing (AM) methods. PATIENT CONCERNS A 69-year-old female patient had developed left hip joint pain and restricted movement for 40 years; the symptoms had increased in the past 5 months. Pain, limited motion of the left hip joint, and lower limb length discrepancy were noted during physical examination. DIAGNOSIS The patient was diagnosed with left hip end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to DDH (Crowe type III). INTERVENTION A 3D printed acetabulum model was manufactured and a simulated operation was performed to improve the accuracy of reconstruction of the rotation center and bone defect. A 3D printed titanium alloy integral customized acetabular prosthesis was designed according to the result of simulated operation. The integral customized prothesis was implanted subsequently via the posterolateral approach. Radiography of the pelvis and Harris score assessment were performed during the perioperative period as well as at the 6- and 12-month follow-up. OUTCOMES The 3D printed integral customized acetabular prosthesis matched precisely with the reamed acetabulum. The rotation center was restored and the bone defect was exactly reconstructed. There were no signs of prosthetic loosening at the 12-month follow-up. The Harris score gradually improved during the follow-up period. LESSONS Satisfactory results of hip rotation restoration and bone defect reconstruction could be achieved by using 3D printed integral customized acetabular prosthesis, which provides a promising way to reconstruct the acetabulum in patients with DDH anatomically and rapidly for THA.

Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty in cases of dwarfism may be a demanding procedure, as the small-sized joints are difficult to replace with standard prostheses, even more so in the presence of dysplastic hips. The authors report a case of bilateral customized total hip arthroplasty performed in a young patient with proportionated dwarfism with bilateral hip dysplasia. To ensure sufficient stabilization of the cup, roof bone grafting was performed. The custom-made acetabular component was a trabecular acetabular shell manufactured using selective laser melting technology to ensure an optimal porous structure to enhance primary stability and bone ingrowth. Selective laser melting may be a promising alternative technology for manufacturing highly porous customized acetabular components for complex joint reconstruction procedures in which enhanced osseointegration ability is particularly required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental hip dysplasia is the most common cause of secondary hip osteoarthritis. Due to severe acetabular bone deficiency, cup positioning in total hip arthroplasty (THA) of dysplastic hips remains a surgical challenge. The aim was to analyze the functional outcome of far proximal cup positions in primary THA. METHODS Fifty patients (61 hips) with THA for severe dysplastic osteoarthritis and a far proximal cup position were included. Patients were divided according to the heights of the implanted cups with increasing vertical distance from the interteardrop line (group A: 55-65 mm, group B: 65-75 mm, group C: >75 mm). Functional outcome was assessed at latest follow-up (38 ± 16 months) by Lower Extremity Functional Score, Tegner Activity Score, and Harris Hip Score (HHS). Patients answered a Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire. Leg length discrepancy was estimated radiographically. RESULTS The Lower Extremity Functional Score significantly decreased in C (45.3 ± 25) compared to A (66.7 ± 15.3) and B (67.9 ± 9.9). The Tegner Activity Score significantly increased in all subgroups from preoperative to postoperative (2.2 ± 1.3 to 4.1 ± 1.4; P < .05). The mean overall HHS was 89.3 ± 14.7 (A: 89.5 ± 14.3, B: 94.3 ± 6.5, C: 78.3 ± 22.1). The HHS domains of activity of daily life and gait were significantly reduced in C (P < .05). Patients described a high satisfaction level with the surgery. No significant differences were found with regard to preoperative and postoperative leg lengthening (P = .881). Neither dislocations, impingement problems nor neurologic complications were observed. CONCLUSION Primary THA without any concomitant surgical interventions with a far proximal cup position offers a safe and effective treatment option in severe dysplastic hip osteoarthritis.

Abstract
RATIONALE Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) is a procedure with excellent surgical outcome that has been proposed for patients with development dysplasia of the hip (DDH). However, the surgical outcomes depend on the surgeon's experience and proficiency. PATIENT CONCERNS A 38-year-old female indicated she was experiencing left hip pain while walking. DIAGNOSES The patient was diagnosed with early-stage hip osteoarthritis due to DDH. INTERVENTIONS The patient underwent CPO while a 3-dimensional flat-panel C-arm (Artis zeego; Sciemens Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany) was used to confirm the real-time 3-dimensional computed tomography (CT) images during surgery. It was possible to confirm the accurate osteotomy curve using CT images twice during surgery: at the time of the ischial osteotomy and the quadrilateral surface osteotomy. OUTCOMES An ideal C-shaped osteotomy line was created as shown on the postoperative CT images. In addition, neither posterior column fracture nor intra-articular osteotomy was confirmed. LESSONS The CPO using Artis zeego resulted is a satisfactory outcome, and this is the 1st report in the world to discuss the benefits of Artis zeego in pelvic osteotomy.

Abstract
RATIONALE The sciatic nerve runs a predictable course combining L4-S3 nerve roots through the true pelvis and under the greater sciatic notch. There are reports of bony protuberances from the sacrum and ilium in cases of spinal dysraphism; however advanced imaging, treatment, or outcomes are not described. There are no cases with associated fibular hemimelia in the current literature. PATIENT CONCERNS This is a 4-year-old girl with tethered cord, acetabular dysplasia with hip subluxation, congenital short femur, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency, and fibular hemimelia with her sciatic nerve coursing through the ilium. DIAGNOSIS Aberrant course of the sciatic nerve through the ilium in the setting of spinal dysraphism. OUTCOMES The hip subluxation was treated with a femoral varus derotation osteotomy and Salter osteotomy with transposition of the sciatic nerve into the greater sciatic notch resulting in a stable hip with no sciatic nerve symptoms at last follow-up. LESSONS The combination of spinal dysraphism with acetabular dysplasia should be a warning for anomalous sciatic nerveanatomy, possibly through the ilium. Preoperative imaging (MRI, CT scan) may be obtained and carefully reviewed for the course of the sciatic nerve prior to pelvic or femoral osteotomy. Decompressing the sciatic nerve from the aberrant foramen may be considered as part of the procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acetabular cup positioning in extreme angles of vertical position affects both stability and long-term survivorship of total hip arthroplasty. The purpose of this study is to determine whether native Sharp's angle is associated with an increased abduction angle of the acetabular component. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent primary total hip replacement between February 2012 and August 2015 were included. Vertical positioning of acetabular implant in the antero-posterior post-operative radiographs were measured. The proportion of implants positioned outside the safe zone (40° ± 10°) was calculated and through a multivariate analysis, Sharp's angle and other factors possibly associated with cup malpositioning were evaluated. RESULTS Five hundred twenty-eight hip arthroplasties were analyzed. Prevalence of cup malpositioning was 7.6% and 25 patients had an altered native acetabular angle. An altered pre-operative Sharp's angle was associated with a higher risk of vertical malpositioning of the acetabular component (OR 2.51 IC 95%: 1.17-5.39) (p = 0.02). Body mass index, surgeon's volume, size of the implant, gender, pre-operative diagnose and age, were not associated with the position of the cup. CONCLUSIONS The alteration of the Sharp's angle as an indicator of hip dysplasia in native hips increases the odds of acetabular cup malpositioning. Other factors explored did not correlate with the position of the acetabular prosthesis. Systematic assessment of Sharp's angle should be included in the pre-operative planning of primary hip arthroplasty.
