BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:681. [PMID: 39210297 PMCID: PMC11363634 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07806-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/21/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The surgical approach impacts the outcomes and recovery after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and approaches may affect the stem positioning. Contrary to the general concept of minimally invasive surgery, the direct anterior approach (DAA) results in more intraoperative blood loss. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare stem positioning and hidden blood loss (HBL) among three surgical approaches: the minimally invasive DAA, Orthopadische Chirurgie Munchen (OCM), and the traditional posterolateral approach (PLA). METHODS A total of 201 patients undergoing their first non-cemented THA using the DAA, OCM, and PLA were included in the study. General demographic data, stem alignment, and blood loss were evaluated. Specific comparison measurements included femoral neck anteversion, femoral stem anteversion, alignment of the stem in coronal and sagittal planes, proximal and distal medullary ratios, and femoral offset. Blood loss was measured by calculating Intraoperative Blood Loss ( IBL), visible blood loss (VBL), and hidden blood loss (HBL). RESULTS There were no significant differences in age, gender, body mass index, preoperative diagnosis, or femoral Dorr classification among the three groups. The mean surgical time was longer for the DAA and OCM compared to the PLA (P < 0.01). IBL was highest in the DAA group and lowest in the PLA (P < 0.05). Postoperative stem anteversion were significantly different among the groups, with the DAA showing the greatest anteversion difference (P < 0.05). There was no difference in the stem coronal alignment. However, there were more valgus and varus implants in the sagittal plane for the DAA and OCM. The femoral offset reduction was less optimal in the DAA and OCM groups (P < 0.05). The proximal and distal medullary ratios were lower in the DAA and OCM (P < 0.05). HBL was significantly lower in the DAA and OCM compared to the PLA (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Minimally invasive approaches such as DAA and OCM offer advantages in muscle and soft tissue preservation, leading to reduced HBL compared to the conventional PLA. However, these approaches present challenges in femoral stem positioning and longer surgical times.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2022; 108:103356. [PMID: 35724839 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2022.103356] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total hip arthroplasty (THA) on a minimally invasive anterolateral (MIAL) approach frequently leads to gluteus minimus and gluteus medius lesions, and sometimes to tensor fasciae latae (TFL) denervation. We therefore developed compensatory strategies, which we assessed on pre- and post-operative MRI: 1) to assess gluteus minimus and gluteus medius fatty infiltration (FI), 2) to assess TFL FI, and 3) to assess FI in the other periarticular muscles. HYPOTHESIS The modified MIAL approach reduces the rate of gluteus minimus and gluteus medius lesion. MATERIALS AND METHODS A continuous prospective single-surgeon series of THA using a MIAL approach included 25 patients. Femoral implantation was performed with the hip in extension so as to distance the proximal femur from the gluteals, avoiding muscle trauma. The superior gluteal nerve branch in the space between the gluteus medius and TFL, running toward the TFL, was systematically released and protected. MRI was performed preoperatively and at 3 months and 1 year post-surgery. FI was analyzed according to the Goutallier classification in all periarticular muscles. RESULTS One patient lacked preoperative MRI and was excluded, leaving 24 patients, for 72 MRIs. In 10/24 patients (41.7%) the gluteus minimus and in 8/24 patients (33.3%) the anterior third of the gluteus medius showed ≥2 grade increase in FI between preoperative and 1-year MRI, with significant increases in both at 3 months (p<0.001) and 1 year (p<0.001). At least a 2 grade increase in FI at 1 year was seen in 1 patient (4.2%) in the TFL, in 2 (8.3%) in the piriformis, and in 1 (4.2%) in the obturator internus. There were no significant differences in FI between preoperative, 3-month or 1-year MRI in any other periarticular muscles. CONCLUSION Femoral implantation in hip extension did not reduce the rate of gluteal lesions, which remained frequent. In contrast, release of the superior gluteal nerve branch could be effective in conserving TFL innervation. Some rare lesions of the proximal part of the pelvi-trochanteric muscles were also observed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, Prospective case series.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2022; 108:103354. [PMID: 35716987 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2022.103354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Revised: 04/10/2022] [Accepted: 04/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Minimally invasive approaches (direct anterior approach: DAA; minimally invasive anterolateral: MIAL; piriformis-sparing posterior approach: PSPA) are widely used for total hip arthroplasty (THA), with a muscle-sparing objective. There are no published comparative studies of muscle damage secondary to these approaches. The aim of the present study was to compare fatty infiltration (FI) on MRI induced by DAA, MIAL and PSPA in THA 1) in the tensor fasciae latae (TFL) and sartorius muscles, 2) in the gluteal muscles, and 3) in the pelvitrochanteric muscles. HYPOTHESIS Greater FI is induced by DAA in anterior muscles, by MIAL in gluteal muscles and by PSPA in pelvitrochanteric muscles. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three continuous prospective series of THA by DAA, MIAL and PSPA included 25 patients each. MRI was performed preoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively. FI was graded on the Goutallier classification in all periarticular hip muscles. Muscles showing ≥2 grade aggravation at 1 year were considered damaged. RESULTS Nine patients whose preoperative MRI was uninterpretable were excluded. In all, 66 patients (21 DAA, 24 MIAL and 21 PSPA) with 132 MRI scans were analyzed. TFL was damaged in 2/21 DAA patients (9.5%), 1/24 MIAL patients (4.2%) and 0/21 PSPA patients (0%). There were no sartorius lesions. The anterior third of the gluteus medius was damaged in 8/24 MIAL patients (33.3%) and the gluteus minimus in 10/24 (41.7%), compared to 1/21 DAA patients (4.8%) and 0/21 PSPA patients (0%). The mid and posterior thirds of the gluteus medius and the gluteus maximus were never damaged. The piriformis muscle was damaged in 3/21 DAA patients (14.3%), 2/24 MIAL patients (8.3%) and 2/21 PSPA patients (9.5%). The obturator internus was damaged in 4/21 DAA patients (19%), 1/24 MIAL patients (4.2%) and 16/21 PSPA patients (76.2%). The obturator externus and quadratus femoris were mainly damaged in PSPA patients: respectively, 5/21 (23.8%) and 4/21 patients (19%)). CONCLUSION The muscle-sparing properties of minimally invasive hip approaches are only theoretical. In the present series, there were rare TFL lesions with DAA and MIAL. Gluteus medius and minimus lesions were frequent in MIAL. Pelvitrochanteric muscles lesions were more frequent in PSPA, but found in all 3 approaches. These findings should help guide surgeons in their choice of approach and in informing patients about the damage these minimally invasive approaches can cause.

Towards defining muscular regions of interest from axial magnetic resonance imaging with anatomical cross-reference: a scoping review of lateral hip musculature. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:533. [PMID: 35658932 PMCID: PMC9166386 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-05439-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Measures of hip muscle morphology and composition (e.g., muscle size and fatty infiltration) are possible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Standardised protocols or guidelines do not exist for evaluation of hip muscle characteristics, hindering reliable and valid inter-study analysis. This scoping review aimed to collate and synthesise MRI methods for measuring lateral hip muscle size and fatty infiltration to inform the future development of standardised protocols. Methods Five electronic databases (Medline, CINAHL, Embase, SportsDISCUS and AMED) were searched. Healthy or musculoskeletal pain populations that used MRI to assess lateral hip muscle size and fatty infiltration were included. Lateral hip muscles of interest included tensor fascia late (TFL), gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus. Data on MRI parameters, axial slice location, muscle size and fatty infiltrate measures were collected and analysed. Cross referencing for anatomical locations were made between MRI axial slice and E-12 anatomical plastinate sections. Results From 2684 identified publications, 78 studies contributed data on volume (n = 31), cross sectional area (CSA) (n = 24), and fatty infiltration (n = 40). Heterogeneity was observed for MRI parameters and anatomical boundaries scrutinizing hip muscle size and fatty infiltration. Seven single level axial slices were identified that provided consistent CSA measurement, including three for both gluteus maximus and TFL, and four for both gluteus medius and minimus. For assessment of fatty infiltration, six axial slice locations were identified including two for TFL, and four for each of the gluteal muscles. Conclusions Several consistent anatomical levels were identified for single axial MR slice to facilitate muscle size and fatty infiltration muscle measures at the hip, providing the basis for reliable and accurate data synthesis and improvements in the validity of future between studies analyses. This work establishes the platform for standardised methods for the MRI assessment of lateral hip musculature and will aid in the examination of musculoskeletal conditions around the hip joint. Further studies into whole muscle measures are required to further optimise methodological parameters for hip muscle assessment.

Medicina (B Aires) 2022; 58:medicina58060713. [PMID: 35743976 PMCID: PMC9228776 DOI: 10.3390/medicina58060713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2022] [Revised: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Objectives: We performed anterolateral total hip arthroplasty (ALS THA) with the purpose of complete muscle-tendon preservation without muscle-tendon dissection. This study aimed to evaluate muscle damage in the periprosthetic hip joint muscles of patients undergoing ALS THA at 1-year post-operative hip magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Materials and Methods: We evaluated changes in the muscle cross-sectional area (M-CSA) and fatty atrophy of the periprosthetic muscles. We also assessed the Harris hip score on pre-operative and 12-month post-operative MRI in 66 patients who underwent ALS THA. The grade of M-CSA atrophy was classified into no atrophy, slight atrophy, moderate atrophy, and severe atrophy. Fatty atrophy was classified as improved, no change, and worsened using the Goutallier classification. Results: More than 90% of patients’ M-CSA had no atrophy in the obturator internus (Oi), obturator externus (Oe), gluteus medius (Gmed), and gluteus minimus (Gmin), and some improvement was observed in terms of fatty atrophy. In contrast, M-CSA of the tensor fascia latae (TFL) muscle was clearly decreased, and there was no improvement in the TFL fatty atrophy. However, the presence or absence of TFL atrophy did not affect clinical outcome. Conclusions: We performed the complete muscle preserving procedure, ALS THA, with attention to preserving the Oi and Oe by direct visual confirmation and gentle treatment of the Gmed and Gmin with effective retraction. Post-operative M-CSA atrophy evaluation on MRI showed that the Oi, Oe, Gmed, and Gmin were satisfactorily preserved; however, the TFL was clearly atrophic. In the ALS approach, where entry is made between Gmed and TFL, atrophy of the TFL due to superior gluteal nerve injury must be tolerated to some extent.

Difference in tapered wedge stem alignment between supine and lateral position in cementless total hip arthroplasty via modified Watson-Jones anterolateral approach. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY AND TRAUMATOLOGY 2021; 32:497-503. [PMID: 34021789 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-021-03001-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether different body positions during surgery affect postoperative stem alignment in total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to clarify differences in tapered wedge stem alignment between supine and lateral positions in THA under the modified Watson-Jones anterolateral approach. METHODS We reviewed 242 consecutive, primary cementless THAs performed with ceramic-on-cross-linked polyethylene via the modified Watson-Jones approach in either supine or lateral positions between 2009 and 2015 (supine group: 113 cases; lateral group: 129 cases). No specific reasons to select supine or lateral positions for the surgery were given during the study period. Computed tomography was performed pre- and postoperatively to measure preoperative femoral anteversion and postoperative stem anteversion, respectively. Stem alignment in coronal and sagittal planes was also evaluated. RESULTS Mean difference in stem anteversion and femoral anteversion was 8.6 ± 9.4 in the supine position and 13.0 ± 11.4 in the lateral position (p = 0.0013). Although no significant difference was seen between groups for stem alignment in the coronal plane, flexed implantation was more likely in the supine group (46/113, 40.7%) than in the lateral group (20/129, 15.5%). A significant correlation was found between femoral anteversion and stem anteversion in both the supine and lateral groups (r = 0.68, p < 0.0001 and r = 0.52, p < 0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSION Although stem anteversion was more strongly correlated with femoral anteversion in the supine position than in the lateral position, neutral position in the sagittal plane was more likely to be found with the lateral position than with the supine position. Surgeons can achieve ideal stem positioning by considering these results in the modified Watson-Jones approach in both the supine and lateral positions.
