Abstract
OBJECTIVE The hip joint can be affected by extraspinal diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). This study aimed to compare the clinical characteristics of hips with DISH to those with mixed-type femoroacetabular impingement symptoms (FAIS). In addition, patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores were reported among patients with DISH involving the hip joint who underwent arthroscopic treatment. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed using data from patients who underwent hip arthroscopy between 2017 and 2021. Patients who had a preoperative diagnosis of extraspinal DISH of the hip joint and postoperative Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (HOS-SSS), International Hip Outcome Tool 12-component form (iHOT-12), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain scores were enrolled in the study. The patients' characteristics were compared with those of a control group (1:2) consisting of mixed-type patients with FAIS. The control group was matched in terms of age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and symptom duration. RESULTS Eleven hips (0.87%) with extraspinal DISH (study group) were matched to 22 FAIS hips (control group). All the patients were male. The mean age of patients was 42.0 ± 8.0 in the study group. The study group was characterized by a larger preoperative alpha angle (79.1 ± 6.8 vs 64.8 ± 9.7, P < .001), lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) (49.7 ± 6.0 vs 40.7 ± 3.2, P < .001), and postoperative LCEA (36.6 ± 3.0 vs 34.2 ± 2.0, P = .013). In addition, a higher proportion of acetabular (81.8% vs 31.8%, P = .007) and femoral head chondral lesions (45.5% vs 9.1%, P = .016). Cartilage damage has the potential to affect the prognosis of arthroscopic treatment. Nevertheless, at the final follow-up, patients with DISH experienced a significant increase in range of motion (ROM), notable enhancements in all PROs, and favorable rates of minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for the PROs. CONCLUSION The occurrence of DISH in the hip joint is considerably infrequent, characterized by hip pain and limited ROM. Despite increased alpha angle and LCEA, and more acetabular and femoral head chondral damage noted at the time hip arthroscopy, patients with DISH observed a significant improvement in ROM, notable enhancements in all PROs, and favorable rates of MCID for the PROs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients who have preoperative asymptomatic gluteal tendinosis (aGT) to a control group with no gluteal tendinosis (GT). METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed using data from patients who underwent THA between March 2016 and October 2020. An aGT was diagnosed using hip magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without clinical symptoms. Patients who had aGT were matched (1:1) to patients without GT on MRI. A total of 56 aGT hips and 56 hips without GT were found using propensity-score matching. Patient-reported outcomes, intraoperative macroscopic evaluation, outcome measurements, postoperative physical examinations, complications, and revisions were compared for both groups. RESULTS When compared to preoperative outcomes, both groups demonstrated significant improvements in patients-reported outcomes at the final follow-up. There were no significant differences between both groups for preoperative scores, 2-year postoperative outcome scores, or the magnitude of improvement. Patients in the aGT group were significantly less likely to obtain the MCID for the SF-36 MCS score (50.2 versus 69.3%, P = .034). However, there were no other differences in the rates of meeting the MCID between both groups. The aGT group demonstrated significantly higher rates of partial tendon degeneration of the gluteus medius muscle. CONCLUSION Asymptomatic gluteal tendinosis patients who have osteoarthritis and undergo THA may expect favorable patients-reported outcomes at minimum 2-year follow-up. These results were comparable with those of a control group of patients without gluteal tendinosis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Relationship between the Depth of Acetabuloplasty and Outcomes of Hip Arthroscopy in Patients with Global Pincer Femoroacetabular Impingement: Study with a Minimum Follow-Up Period of 2 Years. Orthop Surg 2023. [PMID: 37105902 DOI: 10.1111/os.13739] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE There has been no definite consensus on the ideal depth of acetabuloplasty, especially in cases of global pincer femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). This study aims to determine whether the depth of acetabuloplasty influences postoperative outcomes in cases of global pincer FAI. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from patients with global pincer FAI who underwent hip arthroscopy with a minimum follow-up period of 2 years from May 2014 to December 2018. Patients with global pincer FAI were subdivided into low or high resection depth groups based on whether the intraoperative acetabular rim was resected by more than 3 mm. Radiographic measurements; arthroscopic procedures; preoperative and postoperative PROs were recorded. Achievement of MCID and PASS was compared for the VAS, mHHS, HOS-ADL, and iHOT-12. A paired Student t-test was used to evaluate the significance of preoperative and postoperative PROs and two-tailed unpaired Student t-test was used to compare demographic data and PROs between different groups. MCID and PASS were evaluated using the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test. RESULTS A total of 41 hips with global pincer FAI (15 and 26 patients in low or high resection depth groups, respectively) were included in this study. Both groups showed significant postoperative improvements in the scores of all PROs (p < 0.001). Compared to the low resection depth group, the high resection depth group had a lower degree of improvement through hip arthroscopy, which manifested as lower postoperative mHHS scores (94.29 vs. 85.08, p = 0.006), higher VAS scores (0.93 vs. 2.54, p = 0.002), and lower improvements in VAS (-5.00 vs. -3.35, p = 0.028), HOS-ADL (34.99 vs. 23.90, p = 0.017) and iHOT-12 (39.89 vs. 29.27, p = 0.036). Patients in high resection depth group were less likely to achieve the MCID for the VAS score compared to low resection depth group in significant (73.3 vs. 26.9%, p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS For patients with global pincer, the outcomes in high resection depth group were slightly worse than the the low resection depth group. It is indicated that excessive resection of the acetabular rim during the procedure should be avoided.

Outcomes in Patients with Global Pincer Versus Focal Pincer Femoroacetabular Impingement Treated with Hip Arthroscopy: A Retrospective Study with a Minimum 2-Year Follow-Up. Orthop Surg 2022; 15:223-229. [PMID: 36440529 PMCID: PMC9837257 DOI: 10.1111/os.13592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 10/18/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Global pincer is a relatively rare form of pincer deformity and is typically associated with technical challenges during surgery. So far, controversy remains whether patients with global pincer have equivalent surgical outcomes compared to patients with focal pincer. This study compares the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic treatment between patients with global pincer femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and focal pincer FAI in the Chinese population. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from patients with global and focal pincer FAI who underwent hip arthroscopy with a minimum two-year follow-up between April 2016 and December 2018. Radiographic measurements, arthroscopic procedures, preoperative and postoperative patient-reported outcomes (PROs) including modified Harris hip score (mHHS), hip outcome score-activities of daily living (HOS-ADL), international hip outcome tool-12 (iHOT-12), and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, rates of revision surgery and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were recorded. Achievement of minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) was compared for the VAS, mHHS, HOS-ADL, and iHOT-12 scores between groups. RESULTS The total of 33 and 167 patients were included in the global and focal group, respectively. There were no intergroup differences in age, gender, body mass index or follow-up times. Lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) was reduced in both groups postoperatively. Both groups demonstrated significant improvements in PROs compared with preoperative levels at the final follow-up. The preoperative scores showed significant differences in terms of mHHS (60.34 vs 62.90, P = 0.031) and HOS-ADL (61.45 vs 64.74, P = 0.022) scores between two groups, and the improvement of HOS-ADL score was significantly higher in global group (P = 0.027). However, the postoperative scores, including VAS, mHHS, HOS-ADL, and iHOT-12 scores, showed no significant differences between two groups. And there were no significant differences in the rate of meeting the PASS and MCID between groups. One (3.0%) in the global group and six (3.6%) patients in the focal group underwent revision arthroscopy respectively, with no significant difference (P = 0.876). There were no conversions to THA in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Arthroscopic management of global pincer FAI can achieve excellent functional scores at minimum 2-year follow-up. The outcomes were similar to focal pincer FAI patients with a low rate of secondary procedure.

Imageless robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty is accurate in vivo: a retrospective study to measure the postoperative bone resection and alignment. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2022; 143:3471-3479. [PMID: 36269397 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04648-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Conventional instruments for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have limited accuracy. The occurrence of outliers can negatively influence the clinical outcome and long-term survival of the implant. Orthopaedic robotic systems were developed to increase the accuracy of implant positioning and bone resections. Several systems requiring preoperative imaging have shown a higher degree of precision compared to conventional instrumentation. An imageless system needs less preoperative time and preparation and is more cost effective. Aim of this study was to find out whether this system is as precise, reproduces accurately the surgeon's planning and reduces the occurrence of outliers. METHODS This retrospective study included the first 71 robotic-assisted TKA and 308 conventional TKA in 374 patients. Intraoperatively planned and actual bone resections were compared. Postoperative alignment, measured on full leg weight bearing radiographs, was related to the respective planning and statistically compared between the groups. RESULTS Baseline characteristics (age, BMI, ASA, preoperative Knee Society Score and deformity) between both groups were comparable. According to the planned alignment, the postoperative mean difference was - 1.01° in the robotic versus 2.05° in the conventional group. The maximum deviation was - 2/+ 2.5° in the robotic and - 6.6/ + 6.8° in the conventional group. According to the plan, there were no outliers above ± 3° in the robotic versus 24% in the conventional group. The mean difference between planned and measured bone resection was 0.21 mm with a maximum of 2 mm. The 95% confidence interval was at each position 1 mm or below. CONCLUSIONS The described imageless robotic system is accurate in terms of coronal alignment and bone resections. In precision, it is superior to conventional instrumentation and could therefore be used to evaluate new alignment concepts.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a novel machine learning algorithm capable of predicting TKA implant sizes using a large, multicenter database. METHODS A consecutive series of primary TKA patients from two independent large academic and three community medical centers between 2012 and 2020 was identified. The primary outcomes were final tibial and femoral implant sizes obtained from an automated inventory system. Five machine learning algorithms were trained using six routinely collected preoperative features (age, sex, height, weight, and body mass index). Algorithms were validated on an independent set of patients and evaluated through accuracy, mean absolute error (MAE), and root mean-squared error (RMSE). RESULTS A total of 11,777 patients were included. The support vector machine (SVM) algorithm had the best performance for femoral component size(MAE = 0.73, RMSE = 1.06) with accuracies of 42.2%, 88.3%, and 97.6% for predicting exact size, ± one size, and ± two sizes, respectively. The elastic-net penalized linear regression (ENPLR) algorithm had the best performance for tibial component size (MAE 0.70, RMSE = 1.03) with accuracies of 43.8%, 90.0%, and 97.7% for predicting exact size, ± one size, and ± two sizes, respectively. CONCLUSION Machine learning algorithms demonstrated good-to-excellent accuracy for predicting within one size of the final tibial and femoral components used for TKA. Patient height and sex were the most important factors for predicting femoral and tibial component size, respectively. External validation of these algorithms is imperative prior to use in clinical settings. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Case-control, III.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgeons performing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are interested in the accuracy and time it takes to make the four femoral resections that determine the setting of the femoral component. A method for quantifying the error of each resection is the thickness, measured by a caliper, minus the femoral target. The present study tested the hypothesis that the mean deviation of the resection from the femoral target, the percentage of resections with a deviation of ± 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm, and the time to complete the femoral cuts were not different between experienced (E) and less-experienced (LE) surgeons performing unrestricted caliper verified kinematically aligned (KA) TKA with manual instruments. METHODS This study analyzed intraoperative verification worksheets from 203 patients treated by ten E surgeons and 58 patients treated by four LE surgeons. The worksheet recorded (1) the thickness of the femoral target for the distal medial (DM), distal lateral (DL), posterior medial (PM), and posterior lateral (PL) resections and the caliper thickness of the resections with a resolution of 0.5 mm, and (2) the time to complete them. The most accurate resection has a mean difference ± standard deviation of 0 ± 0.0 mm. RESULTS The accuracy of the 1044 initial resections (261 patients) was significantly closer to the femoral target for E vs. the LE surgeons: 0.0 ± 0.4 vs. - 0.3 ± 0.5 for the DM, 0.0 ± 0.5 vs. - 0.4 ± 0.6 for the DL, - 0.1 ± 0.5 vs. - 0.2 ± 0.5 PM, and - 0.1 ± 0.5 vs. - 0.4 ± 0.6 for the PL resections (p ≤ 0.0248). E surgeons completed the femoral resections in 12 min; 5 min faster than LE surgeons (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Because the mean difference in femoral resections with manual instruments for E vs. LE surgeons was < 0.5 mm which is within the caliper's resolution, differences in accuracy were not clinically relevant. Surgeons exploring other alignment options and robotic, navigation, and patient-specific instrumentation might find these values helpful when deciding to change.

Imageless robotic-assisted revision arthroplasty from UKA to TKA : Surgical technique and case-control study compared with primary robotic TKA. DER ORTHOPADE 2021; 50:1018-1025. [PMID: 34714372 PMCID: PMC8642254 DOI: 10.1007/s00132-021-04182-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
Background and objective It is evident from the national joint registries that numbers of revision knee arthroplasty operations are rising. The aim of this article is to introduce a new robotic-assisted approach in UKA to TKA revision arthroplasty and investigate the alignment accuracy, implant component use and surgery time and to compare it to primary robotic-assisted TKA arthroplasty. Methods This retrospective, case-control study included patients undergoing image-less robotic-assisted revision arthroplasty from UKA to TKA (n = 20) and patients undergoing image-less robotic-assisted primary TKA (control group, n = 20) from 11/2018 to 07/2020. The control group was matched based on the BMI and natural alignment. Comparison of groups was based on postoperative alignment, outlier rate, tibial insert size, lateral bone resection depth, incision-to-wound closure time. All surgeries were performed by a single senior surgeon using the same bi-cruciate stabilizing TKA system. Statistical analysis consisted of parametric t‑testing and Fisher’s exact test with a level of significance of p < 0.05. Results The two groups showed no differences in mean BMI, natural alignment (p > 0.05) and mean overall limb alignment. No outlier was found for OLA and slope analysis. The smallest insert size (9 mm) was used in 70% of the cases in the revision group (n = 14) and in 90% of the cases in the primary group (n = 18, p = 0.24), distal femoral and tibial resection depth showed no statistical difference (p > 0.05). The incision to wound closure time was longer in the revision group but showed no significant difference. Conclusion Image-less robotic-assisted revision arthroplasty from UKA to TKA showed a comparable surgery time, and alignment accuracy in comparison to primary robotic-assisted TKA. Comparable bone preservation and subsequent tibial insert size use was observed for both groups.
