A Three-Dimensional Experimental Operation Study. J Clin Med 2023; 12:6664. [PMID: 37892802 PMCID: PMC10607240 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12206664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A postoperative radiograph in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is usually obtained to evaluate the inclination and anteversion of the acetabular components. However, there is no gold-standard method for calculating the exact inclination and anteversion of the acetabular components on post-THA radiographs. We aimed to measure the actual anteversion of the acetabular component on postoperative radiographs by obtaining correlation data between the virtual and actual acetabular component positioning using virtual three-dimensional (3D) surgery. METHODS A total of 64 hip scans of 32 patients who underwent lower-extremity computed tomography (CT) were retrospectively reviewed. We reconstructed 3D models of the 64 hips using customized computer software (Mimics). Furthermore, to identify the safe zone of acetabular component position in THA, we performed virtual 3D surgery simulations for five anteversion (-10°, 0°, 10°, 20°, and 30°) and five inclination (20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, and 60°) types. We analyzed the acetabular anatomy using 3D models to measure the radiographic, anatomical, and operative anteversion (RA, AA, OA) and inclination (RI, AI, OI) angles. Additionally, we used the Woo-Morrey (WM) method to calculate the anteversion angle in the reconstructed cross-table lateral (CL) radiographs and determined the correlation between these measurements. RESULTS The safe zone of the acetabular component was visualized on post-THA CL radiographs using the WM method of anteversion measurement based on the different anteversions and inclinations of the acetabular component. The AA, RA, OA, OI, and WM differed significantly between males and females (p value < 0.05). As the anatomical inclination or anteversion increased, the WM anteversion measurements also increased. The radiographic anteversion measurement best matched the WM method of measurement, followed by anatomical and operative methods. CONCLUSIONS The actual anteversion of the acetabular component after THA can be measured on CL radiographs with the WM method using a 3D virtual program, with good reproducibility.

De Carvalho DE, Callaghan JP. Effect of office chair design features on lumbar spine posture, muscle activity and perceived pain during prolonged sitting. ERGONOMICS 2023; 66:1465-1476. [PMID: 36437777 DOI: 10.1080/00140139.2022.2152113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Chair design features are typically compared using multiple seats, which can lead to confounding effects. Using a single chair, configurable to four designs (control, lumbar support, seat pan tilt and scapular relief), we investigated the effect of chair design on spine posture and movement, muscle activity and perceived pain in a sample of 31 asymptomatic adults. A total of 39% of the population were classified as pain developers, having significantly higher peak pain levels across most body regions. The lumbar support and seat pan tilt condition resulted in more neutral spine and pelvic postures. Greater muscle activity was found in the seat pan condition and non-pain developers displayed lower spine muscle activation levels overall. Despite some improvements in spine posture, sitting-induced pain was present in the study sample at similar proportions to those reported previously. Future studies may consider investigating interventions targeted to sitting-induced pain developers as opposed to the general population. Practitioner summary: Four office chair configurations were tested. The lumbar support and seat pan tilt conditions resulted in the most neutral back posture but did not mitigate the clinically significant levels of sitting-induced pain experienced by a large portion of the tested sample. Future work should target interventions to these individuals.

Abstract
PURPOSE Various anatomical landmarks have become established in radiography for the assessment of cup positioning after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The most important one is Koehler's teardrop figure (KTF). However, there is a lack of data on the validity of this landmark, which is widely used clinically for assessing the centre of rotation of the hip. METHOD A retrospective measurement of the lateral and cranial distance of the KTF to the centre of hip rotation was performed on the basis of 250 X-ray images of patients who had undergone THA. In addition, the dependence of these distances on pelvic tilt was determined in 16 patients by means of virtual X-ray projections based on pelvic CTs. RESULTS It was shown that the distance of the KTF from the centre of hip rotation in the horizontal plane is gender-dependent (men: 42.8 ± 6.0 mm vs. women: 37.4 ± 4.7 mm; p < 0.001) and age-dependent (Pearson correlation - 0.114; p < 0.05). Furthermore, the vertical and horizontal distances are subject to variation depending on height (Pearson correlation 0.14; p < 0.05 and 0.40; p < 0.001, respectively) and weight (Pearson correlation 0.158; p < 0.05). The distance between the KTF and the centre of hip rotation varies slightly depending on pelvic tilt. CONCLUSION The KTF is not a sufficiently valid landmark for assessing the centre of rotation after THA. It is influenced by many different disturbance variables. However, it is largely robust against changes in pelvic tilt, so that it can be used as a reference point when comparing different intraindividual radiographs to assess the change in the centre of rotation due to implantation or to detect cup migration.

Validation of a preoperative formula to estimate postoperative pelvic sagittal alignment and mobility before performing total hip arthroplasty for patients with hip osteoarthritis. ARTHROPLASTY 2023; 5:13. [PMID: 37020254 PMCID: PMC10077599 DOI: 10.1186/s42836-023-00171-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although it is important to consider pelvic alignment and mobility in the standing and sitting positions before THA, it is not known how to preoperatively predict individual postoperative pelvic alignment and mobility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the pelvic alignment and mobility before and after THA, and to develop a predictive formula using preoperative factors to calculate postoperative sagittal alignment and mobility. METHODS One hundred seventy patients were assessed. The 170 patients were randomly divided into a prediction model analysis group (n = 85) and an external validation group (n = 85). In the prediction model analysis group, preoperative spinopelvic parameters were used to develop the predictive formulas to predict the postoperative sacral slope (SS) in standing and sitting positions and ΔSS. These were applied to the external validation group and assessed. RESULTS R2 in multiple linear regression models for postoperative SS in standing, SS in sitting and ΔSS were 0.810, 0.672, and 0.423, respectively. The values of predicted and postoperative parameters were very close with no significant difference: SS in standing (33.87 vs. 34.23, P = 0.834), SS in sitting (18.86 vs. 19.51, P = 0.228), and ΔSS (15.38 vs. 14.72, P = 0.619). CONCLUSION The present study showed that the pelvic alignment and mobility after THA can be predicted using preoperative factors. Although a model with higher accuracy is needed, it is important to use a predictive formula to estimate the postoperative condition before performing THA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pelvic tilt (PT) is important to consider when planning total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to its dynamic impact on acetabular orientation. The degree of sagittal pelvic rotation varies during functional activities and can be difficult to measure without proper imaging. The purpose of this study was to evaluate PT variation in the supine, standing, and seated positions. METHODS A multi-centre cross-sectional study was performed that included 358 THA patients who had preo-perative PT measured from supine CT scan and standing and upright seated lateral radiographs. Supine, standing, and seated PT and associated changes between functional positions were evaluated. Anterior PT was assigned a positive value. RESULTS In the supine position, mean PT was 4° (range, -35° to 20°), where 23% had posterior PT and 69% anterior PT. In the standing position, mean PT was 1° (range, -23° to 29°), where 40% had posterior PT and 54% anterior PT. In the seated position, mean PT was -18° (range, -43° to 47°), where 95% had posterior PT and 4% anterior PT. From standing to seated, the pelvis rotated posteriorly in 97% of cases (maximum 60°) with 16% of cases considered stiff (change ≤ 10°) and 18% of cases considered hypermobile (change ≥ 30°). CONCLUSION Patients undergoing THA have marked PT variation in the supine, standing, and seated positions. There was wide variability in PT change from standing to seated, with 16% of patients considered stiff and 18% considered hypermobile. Functional imaging should be performed on patients prior to THA to allow for more accurate planning.

Influence of kinematics of the lumbopelvic complex in hip arthroplasty dislocation: from assessment to recommendations. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023:10.1007/s00402-022-04722-9. [PMID: 36717435 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04722-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In total hip arthroplasty (THA), misplacement of the implant can provide instability. Adequate orientation of the acetabular cup is a challenge due to variations in inter-individual anatomy and kinematics of the pelvis in everyday life. The aim of this study was to characterize the kinematic factors influencing the risk of dislocation in order to give recommendations for optimal placement of the cup. We hypothesized that the lack of pelvic adaptation would influence the risk of prosthetic instability and motivate adapted. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty patients with primary unilateral THA were included in a matched case-control study. Seventy-four patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (G1) consisting of patients with postoperative THA dislocation (37 patients) and group 2 (G2), without episodes of dislocation within two years postoperatively (37 patients). In both groups, spino-pelvic parameters and cup orientation were measured in standing and sitting positions with EOS® X-ray imaging and compared to each other between 12 and 24 months post-operatively. RESULTS No significant difference between the two groups was found for static parameters. In a sitting position, a lack of pelvic retroversion with a significant lower variation in sacral slope was observed in group 1 (8.0° ± 9.3 for G1 versus 14.7° ± 6.2 for G2, p < 0.01). Twenty-two (59%) patients with THA instability had sacral slope variations of less than 10° versus eight (21% of patients) with stable THA (p < 0.01). Cup orientation in the Lewinnek safe zone was not significantly different (59% vs 67%, p = 0.62), and the spino-pelvic parameters and cup orientation measured did not change between the standing and sitting positions. However, only 14 (37%) cups in G1 were in the functional safe zone versus 24 (67%) in G2 (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Static parameters of the sagittal spinopelvic balance have a low predictive value for prosthetic instability. Dynamic analysis is essential. Kinematic parameters must be taken into account in determining the ideal position of the cup or stem. Stiffness with locked standing or sitting pelvis must be integrated in order to determine a personalized safe zone. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III (matched case-control study).

Sagittal Spinopelvic Translation Is Combined With Pelvic Tilt During the Standing to Sitting Position: Pelvic Incidence Is a Key Factor in Patients Who Underwent THA. Arthroplast Today 2020; 6:672-681.

Abstract
Background Sagittal spinopelvic translation (SSPT) is the horizontal distance from the hip center to the C7 plumb line (C7PL). SSPT is an important variable showing the overall patient balance in different functional positions which could affect the rate of hip instability. This study investigates the SSPT modification in patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods A total of 120 patients were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively on standing and sitting acquisitions (primary unilateral THA without complication). SSPT is zero when the C7PL goes through the center of the femoral heads and positive when the C7PL is posterior to the hips’ center (negative if anterior). Three subgroups were defined based on the pelvic incidence (PI): low PI <45°, 45°< normal PI <65°, or high PI >65°. Results The overall mean preoperative SSPT change from standing to sitting was 2.2 cm ([-7.2 to 17.4]) (P < .05). The overall mean postoperative SSPT change from standing to sitting was 1.2 cm ([-14.2 to 22.4]) (P < .05). In low- and normal-PI groups, standing to sitting SSPT and preoperative to postoperative changes in standing SSPT were increased significantly after surgery with the C7PL behind the hips’ center (P < .05). In the high-PI group, standing to sitting SSPT was increased postoperatively (P = .034) (no significant changes from preoperative to postoperative status in standing and sitting). Conclusions Adaptation from standing to sitting positions combines pelvic tilt and anteroposterior pelvic translation. THA implantation induces significant changes in SSPT mainly for low- and standard-PI patients. This is an important variable to consider when investigating the causes of THA subluxation or dislocation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pre-operative evaluation of pelvic motion using the sacral slope (SS) has been proposed for risk assessment of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purposes of this study were to elucidate the statistical characteristics of pre-operative and post-operative pelvic mobility and investigate the relationship between pre-operative spinopelvic factors and post-operative pelvic mobility. METHODS Eighty-six patients with osteoarthritis were assessed. The parameters evaluated were lumbar lordosis angle and the SS in the standing and sitting preo-peratively and post-operatively. The pelvic mobility was defined as the difference in the SS between standing and sitting. The presence of osteoarthritis in the contralateral hip, spondylolisthesis, vertebral compression fracture and lumbar scoliosis was investigated. RESULTS The median (interquartile range) pre-operative and post-operative pelvic mobility was 19.0 (13.75-27.0) and 16.0 (10.0-25.25), respectively, with significant difference. The pre-operative SS while standing and pre-operative pelvic mobility were associated with post-operative pelvic mobility (r = 0.409, P < 0.05 and r = 0.533, P < 0.05). The multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the following factors contributed to post-operative pelvic mobility: incidence of osteoarthritis in the contralateral hip, lumbar scoliosis, pre-operative SS while standing and pre-operative SS while sitting. CONCLUSION The pre-operative and post-operative pelvic mobility is not equal and ranges widely among patients. In addition to assessment of pre-operative pelvic mobility, other pre-operative spinopelvic factors may also influence post-operative pelvic mobility, such as the SS while standing and sitting, the condition of the contralateral hip and the presence of scoliosis. Risk assessment for dislocation using these pre-operative factors may be useful before THA.

Abstract
Aims There is inconsistent evidence on whether prior spinal fusion surgery adversely impacts outcomes following total hip arthroplasty (THA). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the association between pre-existing spinal fusion surgery and the rate of complications following primary THA. Methods We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library up to October 2019 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies comparing outcomes of dislocation, revision, or reasons for revision in patients following primary THA with or without pre-existing spinal fusion surgery. Furthermore, we compared short (two or less levels) or long (three or more levels) spinal fusions to no fusion. Summary measures of association were relative risks (RRs) (with 95% confidence intervals (CIs)). Results We identified ten articles corresponding to nine unique observational studies comprising of 1,992,366 primary THAs. No RCTs were identified. There were 32,945 cases of spinal fusion and 1,752,362 non-cases. Comparing prior spinal fusion versus no spinal fusion in primary THA, RRs (95% CI) for dislocation was 2.23 (1.81 to 2.74; seven studies), revision 2.14 (1.63 to 2.83; five studies), periprosthetic joint infection 1.71 (1.53 to 1.92; four studies), periprosthetic fracture 1.52 (1.28 to 1.81; three studies), aseptic loosening 1.76 (1.54 to 2.01; three studies), and any complications 2.82 (1.37 to 5.80; three studies) were identified. Both short and long spinal fusions, when compared with no fusion, were associated dislocation, revision, or reasons for revision. Conclusions Patients with prior spinal fusion are at risk of adverse events following primary THA. Measures that reduce the risk of these complications should be considered in this high-risk population when undergoing primary THA. These patients should also be counselled appropriately around their risks of undergoing THA. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2020;102-B(6):664–670.

Retailleau M, Colloud F. New insights into lumbar flexion tests based on inverse and direct kinematic musculoskeletal modeling. J Biomech 2020; 105:109782. [PMID: 32423539 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2020.109782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/31/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Measurement of maximal lumbar flexion is considered to be a crucial element in the assessment of lumbar spine mechanics in situations as diverse as physiotherapy, orthopaedics, ergonomics, sport or aging. However, currently, there is no consensus on a reference test. This study aims to characterise five maximal lumbar flexion tests (four classical tests and a new, specifically-developed test designed to constrain pelvic retroversion) based on a three-dimensional, participant-specific musculoskeletal model. Twenty-six male and female participants performed the five tests. Movements were modelled in OpenSim to estimate change in length in lumbar, hamstring and gluteus muscles, together with lumbar flexion and pelvic tilt. These so-called "inverse" kinematic results were compared using a two-way ANOVA (sex×test). In a second step, lumbar muscle change in length was computed using a direct kinematic method. Lumbar flexion and lumbar muscle change in length were found to be greater when participants were in seated postures, with little pelvic retroversion. Female participants were observed to have less lumbar flexion than male participants (77±14° and 91±12°, respectively). Hip extensor muscles (hamstrings and gluteus) were fully stretched during each of the five tests. Our results highlight the specific roles of hamstrings, gluteus and lumbar muscles into reaching maximal lumbar flexion. Coupling inverse and direct kinematic methods proved to be a useful tool to enhance our knowledge of lumbar tests. Our findings help to characterise the role of the muscles involved in lumbar flexion, and we propose some recommendations for improving and standardising these tests.

Lumbar Spine Degeneration and Flatback Deformity Alter Sitting-Standing Spinopelvic Mechanics-Implications for Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2020; 35:1036-1041. [PMID: 31839349 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2019.11.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2019] [Revised: 10/24/2019] [Accepted: 11/13/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal degeneration and lumbar flatback deformity can decrease recruitment of protective posterior pelvic tilt when sitting, leading to anterior impingement and increased instability. We aim at analyzing regional and global spinal alignment between sitting and standing to better understand the implications of spinal degeneration and flatback deformity for hip arthroplasty. METHODS Spinopelvic parameters of patients with full-body sitting-standing stereoradiographs were assessed: lumbar lordosis (LL), spinopelvic tilt (SPT), pelvic incidence minus LL (PI-LL), sagittal vertical axis (SVA), and T1 pelvic angle (TPA). Lumbar spines were classified as normal, degenerative (disc height loss >50%, facet arthropathy, or spondylolisthesis), or flatback (degenerative criteria and PI-LL >10°). Independent t-tests and analysis of variance were used to analyze alignment differences between groups. RESULTS After propensity matching for age, sex, and hip osteoarthritis grade, 57 patients per group were included (62 ± 11 years, 58% female). Mean standing and sitting SPT, PI-LL, SVA, and TPA increased along the spectrum of disease severity. Increasing severity of disease was associated with decreasing standing and sitting LL. The flatback group demonstrated the greatest sitting SPT, PI-LL, SVA, and TPA. The amount of sitting-to-standing change in SPT, LL, PI-LL, SVA, and TPA decreased along the spectrum of disease severity. CONCLUSION Spinal degeneration and lumbar flatback deformity both significantly decrease lower lumbar spine mobility and posterior SPT from standing to sitting in a stepwise fashion. The demonstrated hypomobility in flatback patients likely serves as a pathomechanism for the previously observed increased risk of dislocation in total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The important relationship between sagittal spinal alignment and total hip arthroplasty (THA) is becoming well recognized. Prior research has shown a significant relationship between sagittal spinal deformity (SSD) and THA instability. This study aims at determining the prevalence of SSD among preoperative THA patients. METHODS A multicenter database of preoperative THA patients was analyzed. Radiographic parameters measured from standing radiographs included anterior pelvic plane tilt, spinopelvic tilt, and lumbar lordosis (LL); pelvic incidence (PI) was measured from computed tomography scans. Lumbar flatback was defined as PI-LL mismatch >10°, balanced as PI-LL of -10° to 10°, and hyperlordosis as PI-LL <-10°. RESULTS A total of 1088 patients were analyzed (mean, 64 years; 48% female). And 59% (n = 644) of patients had balanced alignment, 16% (n = 174) had a PI-LL > 10°, and 4% (n = 46) had a PI-LL > 20° (severe flatback deformity). The prevalence of hyperlordosis was 25% (n = 270). Flatback patients tended to be older than balanced and hyperlordotic patients (69.5 vs 64.0 vs 60.8 years, P < .001). Spinopelvic tilt was more posterior in flatback compared to balanced and hyperlordotic patients (24.7° vs 15.4° vs 7.0°) as was anterior pelvic plane tilt (-7.1° vs -2.0° vs 2.5°) and PI (64.1° vs 56.8° vs 49.0°), all P < .001. CONCLUSION Only 59% of patients undergoing THA have normally aligned lumbar spines. Flatback SSD was observed in 16% (4% with severe flatback deformity) and there was a 25% prevalence of hyperlordosis. Lumbar flatback was associated with increasing age, posterior pelvic tilt, and larger PI. The relatively high prevalence of spinal deformity in this population reinforces the importance of considering spinopelvic alignment in THA planning and risk stratification.

A Geometric Model to Determine Patient-Specific Cup Anteversion Based on Pelvic Motion in Total Hip Arthroplasty. Adv Orthop 2019; 2019:4780280. [PMID: 31186967 PMCID: PMC6521545 DOI: 10.1155/2019/4780280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2018] [Accepted: 01/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Cup position is critical to stability in total hip arthroplasty and is affected by pelvis motion during positions of daily life. The purpose of this study was to explicitly define the relationship between sagittal pelvic motion and resultant cup functional anteversion and create a tool to guide the surgeon to a patient-specific intra-operative anteversion. Materials and Methods 10,560 combinations of inclination, anteversion, and pelvic tilt were generated using a geometric model. Resultant functional anteversion was calculated for each iteration and variables were correlated. An electronic mobile tool was created that compares inputted patient-specific values to population-based averages to determine pelvic positions and dynamics that may lead to instability. Results A third-degree polynomial equation was used to describe the relationship between variables. The freely downloadable mobile tool uses input from pre-operative plain radiographic measurements to provide the surgeon a quantitative correction to intra-operative cup anteversion based on differences in functional anteversion compared to population-based averages. Conclusion This study provides a geometric relationship between planned cup position, pelvic position and motion, and the resultant functional anteversion. This mathematical model was applied to an electronic tool that seeks to determine an individualized intra-operative cup anteversion based on measured patient-specific pelvic dynamics.

Abstract
Despite strongly positive results of total hip arthroplasty (THA), patients remain at risk for complications including dislocation. Spinopelvic motion and the hip-spine relationship have been recognized as important factors in surgical planning and implant positioning in THA. Periarticular osteophytes are one of the hallmark pathoanatomic features of osteoarthritis and may influence implant positioning and joint stability; residual osteophytes at the anterior femoral neck may cause anterior impingement and posterior instability. No studies have been identified which establish the prevalence of anterior femoral neck osteophyte for incorporation into THA planning. 413 consecutive patients scheduled for THA underwent preoperative planning taking into account spinopelvic motion to establish optimal component position. Each surgical plan was reviewed retrospectively by four independent raters who were blinded to other imaging and intraoperative findings. Anterior femoral neck osteophytes were rated as being absent, minor, or extensive for each case. A single outlying rater was excluded. Inter-rater reliability was calculated manually. The patient group comprised 197 male and 216 female hips, with a mean age of 63 years (range 32–91). The presence of anterior femoral neck osteophytes was identified in a mean of 82% of cases (range 78–86%). A significant number of patients were found to have large or extensive osteophytes present in this location (mean 27%; range 23–31%). Inter-rater reliability was 70%. A large majority of our THA patients were found to have anterior femoral neck osteophytes. These must be considered during preoperative planning with respect to the spinopelvic relationship. Failure to identify and address osteophytes intraoperatively may increase the risk of impingement in flexion and/or internal rotation, leading to decreased range of motion, joint instability, and possibly dislocation. Planned future directions include incorporation of an impingement and instability model into preoperative planning for THA.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective Cohort. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Studies have shown that lumbar fusion procedures are associated with an increased risk of total hip arthroplasty (THA) dislocation. Some have speculated that the increased risk of dislocation is caused by mispositioning of the acetabular component because of spinal sagittal imbalance. Unfortunately, the exact relationship between spinal sagittal balance and cup orientation is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of spinal sagittal alignment on cup anteversion in THA dislocation. METHODS Patients that suffered a THA dislocation were retrospectively identified. Cross-table lateral hip radiographs were used to measure cup anteversion with normal acetabular anteversion defined as 15±10 degrees. Lateral lumbar spine radiographs were used to measure lumbar lordosis (LL), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt, and sacral slope. Normal sagittal balance was defined as a PI-LL difference of <10 degrees. The association between sagittal balance and THA characteristics was assessed using Pearson correlation coefficient, χ analysis, and independent t tests. RESULTS A total of 29 patients had full radiographic imaging. Among these patients, 62.1% dislocated following a primary THA and 37.9% following a revision THA. Abnormal spinal sagittal balance was identified in 20 patients (69.0%). Eight (27.6%) patients had undergone spinal fusion prior to THA. Abnormal cup anteversion was demonstrated in 51.7% of all patients. Presence of a spinal fusion was not associated with cup anteversion, sagittal balance, or time to dislocation. Sagittal balance was not associated with direction of dislocation, time to dislocation, or cup anteversion. CONCLUSIONS A majority of patients with a THA dislocation demonstrated abnormal sagittal balance. However, sagittal balance was not associated with acetabular cup anteversion. As such, the relationship between spinal deformity and dislocation rates after THA may not be because of inaccurate cup orientation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although a history of lumbar spine fusion (LSF) is associated with increased dislocation risk following total hip arthroplasty (THA), the effect of LSF following THA is not well described. This study sought to describe the dislocation-free survival experience of patients with THA undergoing LSF, compare this to similar patients not undergoing LSF, and assess factors associated with dislocation risk following LSF. METHODS Center for Medicare Service billing data from 2005 to 2014 was analyzed utilizing the PearlDiver platform. Patients without evidence of hip instability, defined as no dislocation event within at least 6 months following THA, were identified and stratified by having subsequent LSF. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to describe dislocation-free survival of these groups and assess factors associated with dislocation. RESULTS Among 17,223 patients without history of hip instability following THA, there was no spike in dislocations following LSF with patients having a persistent and stable rate of dislocation of 0.7% per year. This experience was of similar shape but increased hazard when compared to that of 863,182 patients not undergoing LSF who had a dislocation rate of 0.4% per year (P < .001). Dislocations were not strongly associated with gender, age, comorbidities, or fusion length. CONCLUSION Patients without evidence of hip instability following THA subsequently undergoing LSF do not have a spike in dislocations in the perioperative period but do assume a persistently elevated risk of dislocation. Future research should identify factors responsible for this increased risk to determine whether they may be modifiable.

Pelvic Tilt Angle Differences Between Symptom-Free Young Subjects and Elderly Patients Scheduled for THA: The Rationale for Tilt-Adjusted Acetabular Cup Implantation. Open Orthop J 2018; 12:364-372.

Abstract
Background: The question whether Pelvic Tilt (PT) angles measured in the supine position are adequate for the alignment of the acetabular cup without an adjustment for anatomical differences between patients is of clinical importance. The aim of this work was to test for factors that can significantly affect PT angles. Methods: In the present retrospective cohort comparison, the PT angles of 12 Symptom-Free Young Subjects (SFYS) and 45 patients scheduled for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) were compared. The data was collected during two studies with the use of a novel smartphone-based navigated ultrasound measurement system. Multi-factorial analysis of variance was run to determine which factors significantly affect PT. Results: Body position (F= 126.65; P< 0.001) and group (SFYS vs. THA patients) (F= 17.52; P< 0.001) had significant main effects on PT. There was also a significant interaction between body position and group (F= 25.59; P< 0.001). The mean PT increased by 8.1° from an interiorly to a neutral tilted position (P< 0.001) and 21.4° from a neutral to a posteriorly tilted position (P< 0.001) with the transition from the supine into the upright position for the SFYS and THA patients, respectively. Conclusion: In both groups, PT changed significantly with a transition from the supine to the upright position. A position-dependent mean PT increase in the patient group showed that acetabular cup alignment based on PT in the supine position is not reliable without taking into consideration the inclination of the pelvis in standing position. This may lead to instability and dislocations.

J Arthroplasty 2018; 33:297-300. [PMID: 28974376 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2017.08.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 99] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2017] [Revised: 08/21/2017] [Accepted: 08/29/2017] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The biomechanical relationship between the lumbar spine and the hip is well-documented. It follows that fusing the lumbar spine would have implications on the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to determine the effect of preexisting lumbar spinal fusion surgery on the outcomes of THA by synthesizing the available evidence via systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic review with meta-analysis was performed in accordance to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Electronic searches were performed in 6 different databases for studies comparing outcomes in patients after THA with or without a history of lumbar fusion. Studies were required to report at least one outcome out of dislocation, revision due to hip instability or patient-reported outcomes. RESULTS Patients with a history of lumbar spinal fusion are at a significantly increased risk of dislocation (relative risk 2.03, P < .00001) and revision (relative risk 3.36, P = .006) after THA. Patient-reported outcomes were also poorer in patients with prior lumbar fusion compared with those without, although meta-analysis could not be performed due to heterogeneity in the outcome measure used between studies. CONCLUSION Previous lumbar spinal fusion increases risk of dislocation and revision, and may negatively impacts patient-reported outcomes after THA. Orthopaedic surgeons should pay particular attention to these patients and could use patient-specific planning, instrumentation, and targeted counselling to optimize clinical and subjective outcomes. Future studies could clarify the impact of prior fusion on patient-reported outcomes after THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine which office chair feature is better at improving spine posture in sitting. METHOD Participants (n = 28) were radiographed in standing, maximum flexion and seated in four chair conditions: control, lumbar support, seat pan tilt and backrest with scapular relief. Measures of lumbar lordosis, intervertebral joint angles and sacral tilt were compared between conditions and sex. RESULTS Sitting consisted of approximately 70% of maximum range of spine flexion. No differences in lumbar flexion were found between the chair features or control. Significantly more anterior pelvic rotation was found with the lumbar support (p = 0.0028) and seat pan tilt (p < 0.0001). Males had significantly more anterior pelvic rotation and extended intervertebral joint angles through L1-L3 in all conditions (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION No one feature was statistically superior with respect to minimising spine flexion, however, seat pan tilt resulted in significantly improved pelvic posture. Practitioner Summary: Seat pan tilt, and to some extent lumbar supports, appear to improve seated postures. However, sitting, regardless of chair features used, still involves near end range flexion of the spine. This will increase stresses to the spine and could be a potential injury generator during prolonged seated exposures.

Abstract
Background Inclination and anteversion were the main factors that determined the reliability of the acetabulum. Inclination and anteversion measurements included anatomical, operational and radiographic methods. The aim of our present study was to exhibit divergence of inclination and anteversion via the three measurements. Methods Inclination and anteversion were defined according to the definitions put forward by Murray. Three-dimensional models of pelvis of CT data were brought forth. Acetabular axis was determined by the rim of acetabula. Reference planes were established by bone landmarks including anterior superior iliac spine, pubic tubercles and sacral crests. Inclinations and anteversions were calculated according to the definitions. Results Forty-nine cases were involved in the research. Data of inclination form anatomical, operational and radiographic showed 37.48 ± 11.07, 45.12 ± 14.76 and 48.76 ± 14.36, and anteversion were 18.12 ± 7.59, 24.97 ± 9.68, 14.30 ± 5.64. A substantial deviation was noted in the inclinations (P < 0.01) and anteversions (P < 0.01). Conclusion Our findings suggested that the inclinations and anteversions of the three measurements varied, which might in turn interfere the decision of orthopedists.

Changes in spinopelvic indices after hip arthroplasty and its influence on acetabular component orientation. J Orthop 2017; 14:434-437. [PMID: 28794584 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2017.07.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2017] [Accepted: 07/30/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate spinopelvic changes after hip arthroplasty in standing and ready-to-rise positions. METHODS We compared pelvic tilt, sacral slope, cobb's angle, and hip flexion on pre and postoperative spinopelvic radiographs. RESULTS Standing: All postoperative indices were similar to preoperative ones except sacral slope (mean difference:1.6°, p = 0.046). Ready-to-rise: All postoperative indices were similar to preoperative ones except pelvic tilt which was significantly greater postoperatively (mean difference: 5.1°, p = 0.017). Fifteen patients showed >10° increase in pelvic tilt postoperatively. CONCLUSION Changes in pelvic tilt in ready-to-rise position can predispose to posterior edge loading, edge wear, and dislocation; especially with inadequate cup anteversion.

Abstract
Sagittal pelvic kinematics along with spino-pelvic angular parameters have recently been studied by numerous investigators for their effect on total hip replacement (THR) clinical outcomes, but many issue of spine-hip relations (SHR) are currently unexplored. Therefore, our review aims at clarifying the following questions: is there any evidence of a relationship between articular impingement/dislocation risk in primary THR and (1) certain sagittal pelvic kinematics patterns, (2) pelvic incidence, and (3) types of SHRs? A systematic review of the existing literature utilising PubMed and Google search engines was performed in January 2017. Only clinical or computational studies published in peer-reviewed journals over the last five years in either English or French were reviewed. We identified 769 reports, of which 12 met our eligibility criteria. A review of literature shows that sagittal pelvic kinematics, but not the pelvic incidence, influences the risk of prosthetic impingement/dislocation. We found no study having assessed the relationship between this risk and the types of SHRs. Sagittal pelvic kinematics is highly variable among individuals and certain kinematic patterns substantially influences the risk of prosthetic impingement/dislocation. Recommendations for cup positioning are therefore switching from a systematic to a patient-specific approach, with the standing cup orientation Lewinneck safe zone progressively giving way to a new parameter of interest: the functional orientation of the cup. Based on a recently published classification for SHRs, We propose a new concept of "kinematically aligned THR" for the purposes of THR planning. Further studies are needed to investigate the relevance of such a classification towards the assumptions and hypothesis we have made. Level of evidence,- Level IV, systematic review of level III and IV studies.

Dislocation of a primary total hip arthroplasty is more common in patients with a lumbar spinal fusion. Bone Joint J 2017; 99-B:585-591. [DOI: 10.1302/0301-620x.99b5.bjj-2016-0657.r1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 176] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2016] [Accepted: 01/09/2017] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Aims Lumbar fusion is known to reduce the variation in pelvic tilt between standing and sitting. A flexible lumbo-pelvic unit increases the stability of total hip arthroplasty (THA) when seated by increasing anterior clearance and acetabular anteversion, thereby preventing impingement of the prosthesis. Lumbar fusion may eliminate this protective pelvic movement. The effect of lumbar fusion on the stability of total hip arthroplasty has not previously been investigated. Patients and Methods The Medicare database was searched for patients who had undergone THA and spinal fusion between 2005 and 2012. PearlDiver software was used to query the database by the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) procedural code for primary THA and lumbar spinal fusion. Patients who had undergone both lumbar fusion and THA were then divided into three groups: 1 to 2 levels, 3 to 7 levels and 8+ levels of fusion. The rate of dislocation in each group was established using ICD-9-CM codes. Patients who underwent THA without spinal fusion were used as a control group. Statistical significant difference between groups was tested using the chi-squared test, and significance set at p < 0.05. Results At one-year follow-up, 14 747 patients were found to have had a THA after lumbar spinal fusion (12 079 1 to 2 levels, 2594 3 to 7 levels, 74 8+ levels). The control group consisted of 839 004 patients. The dislocation rate in the control group was 1.55%. A higher rate of dislocation was found in patients with a spinal fusion of 1 to 2 levels (2.96%, p < 0.0001) and 3 to 7 levels (4.12%, p < 0.0001). Patients with 3 to 7 levels of fusion had a higher rate of dislocation than patients with 1 to 2 levels of fusion (odds ratio (OR) = 1.60, p < 0.0001). When groups were matched for age and gender to the unfused cohort, patients with 1 to 2 levels of fusion had an OR of 1.93 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.42 to 2.32, p < 0.001), and those with 3 to 7 levels of fusion an OR of 2.77 (CI 2.04 to 4.80, p < 0.001) for dislocation. Conclusion Patients with a previous history of lumbar spinal fusion have a significantly higher rate of dislocation of their THA than age- and gender-matched patients without a lumbar spinal fusion.

Sagittal spinopelvic alignment predicts hip function after total hip arthroplasty. Gait Posture 2017; 52:293-300. [PMID: 28027530 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2016.12.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2016] [Revised: 12/03/2016] [Accepted: 12/09/2016] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between preoperative sagittal spinopelvic alignment and postoperative clinical outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA). This retrospective study included 92 patients with hip osteoarthritis who underwent primary THA between May 2013 and October 2015. Patients' characteristics, radiographic sagittal spinopelvic parameters and modified Harris Hip Scores, including function scores (gait scores and functional activities scores), were investigated. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to determine the associations between each preoperative sagittal spinopelvic parameter and postoperative hip function The preoperative sagittal spinopelvic parameters that were associated with postoperative gait scores were sagittal vertical axis (adjusted β-coefficient=-0.28, P=0.02), lumbar lordosis angle (adjusted β-coefficient=0.29, P=0.0089), pelvic tilt (adjusted β-coefficient=-0.25, P=0.045), sacral slope (adjusted β-coefficient=0.27, P=0.017) and pelvic incidence minus lumbar lordosis angle (adjusted β-coefficient=-0.31, P=0.01). The preoperative sagittal spinopelvic parameters that were related to the postoperative functional activities scores were sagittal vertical axis (adjusted β-coefficient=-0.38, P=0.0051) and pelvic incidence minus lumbar lordosis angle (adjusted β-coefficient=-0.39, P=0.0033). Patients with preoperative imbalanced sagittal alignment such as larger sagittal vertical axis, larger pelvic incidence minus lumbar lordosis and retroversion of pelvis had poorer clinical outcomes than others after THA. While, those preoperative imbalanced patients with anteversion of pelvis may have a compensatory ability which could correct the abnormal sagittal alignment after THA. Preoperative sagittal spinopelvic alignment affected postoperative clinical outcomes after THA.

Abstract
Aims The pelvis rotates in the sagittal plane during daily activities. These rotations have a direct effect on the functional orientation of the acetabulum. The aim of this study was to quantify changes in pelvic tilt between different functional positions. Patients and Methods Pre-operatively, pelvic tilt was measured in 1517 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) in three functional positions – supine, standing and flexed seated (the moment when patients initiate rising from a seated position). Supine pelvic tilt was measured from CT scans, standing and flexed seated pelvic tilts were measured from standardised lateral radiographs. Anterior pelvic tilt was assigned a positive value. Results The mean pelvic tilt was 4.2° (-20.5° to 24.5°), -1.3° (-30.2° to 27.9°) and 0.6° (-42.0° to 41.3°) in the three positions, respectively. The mean sagittal pelvic rotation from supine to standing was -5.5° (-21.8° to 8.4°), from supine to flexed seated was -3.7° (-48.3° to 38.6°) and from standing to flexed seated was 1.8° (-51.8° to 39.5°). In 259 patients (17%), the extent of sagittal pelvic rotation could lead to functional malorientation of the acetabular component. Factoring in an intra-operative delivery error of ± 5° extends this risk to 51% of patients. Conclusion Planning and measurement of the intended position of the acetabular component in the supine position may fail to predict clinically significant changes in its orientation during functional activities, as a consequence of individual pelvic kinematics. Optimal orientation is patient-specific and requires an evaluation of functional pelvic tilt pre-operatively. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2017;99-B:184–91.

Abstract
Correct component placement is of significant importance to ensure optimal outcomes in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Traditionally, the Lewinnek plane has been referenced as an adequate "safe zone", formed between the anterior superior iliac spines and public tubercles to optimize acetabular orientation. However, recent evidence shows that the positioning of this plane may vary due to the biomechanical relationship between the lumbar spine and hip. Therefore, the plane acquired intraoperatively may not accurately recreate the actual functional plane and acetabular orientation encountered outside of the intraoperative environment. This review summarizes the hip-spine relationship and its implications on THA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a major postoperative complication. Even if the cup is in the safe zone, dislocation caused by implant impingement may occur during postural changes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the spinopelvic factors that influence pelvic inclination changes from standing to sitting in patients with hip diseases who were candidates for THA. METHODS 74 patients who underwent primary THA were included according to our criteria. The analysis of the sagittal balance of the spinopelvic complex was performed on standing and sitting lateral radiographs. Pelvic incidence (PI), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT), lumbar lordosis angle (LLA), thoracic kyphosis angle (TK), and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) were measured. The differences between the standing and sitting positions regarding the spinal and pelvic parameters were analyzed. Correlations between the variables of the spinopelvic parameters were examined using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. RESULTS The changes in SVA, TK, LLA, SS, PT, and PI from the standing to sitting positions, respectively, were -3.9 ± 48.2 mm, -0.1° ± 6.4°, 21.4° ± 17.7°, 22.2° ± 12.2°, -22.3° ± 13.2°, and 0.4° ± 6.9°. The lumbar lordosis was reduced and pelvic rotation was extended from the standing to the sitting position. The correlation coefficient between the change in the SS and that in the LLA was 0.72 (p < 0.0001). The correlation coefficient between the change in PT and that in the LLA was -0.68 (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The change in pelvic inclination from standing to sitting is strongly related to the mobility of the lumbar spine in patients with hip diseases.

Pelvic tilt compensates for increased acetabular anteversion. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2015; 40:1571-1575.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pelvic tilt determines functional orientation of the acetabulum. In this study, we investigated the interaction of pelvic tilt and functional acetabular anteversion (AA) in supine position. METHODS Pelvic tilt and AA of 138 individuals were measured by computed tomography (CT). AA was calculated in relation to the anterior pelvic plane (APP) and relative to the table plane. We analysed these parameters for gender-specific and age-related differences. RESULTS The mean pelvic tilt was -0.1 ± 5.5°. Pelvic sagittal rotation displayed no gender nor age related differences. Females showed higher angles of AA compared with males (20.0° vs 17.2°, p < 0.001; AA relative to the APP). Anterior tilting of the pelvis positively correlated with AA and individuals with high AA had a higher anterior pelvic tilt compared with those with low AA (p < 0.0001; AA relative to the APP). CONCLUSIONS AA has to be calculated regarding pelvic sagittal rotation for correct acetabular orientation. Pelvic tilt is dependent on acetabular orientation and compensates for increased AA.
