Abstract
The anteversion of the stem is occasionally intentionally changed by the surgeon for patients with smaller femoral neck anteversion during total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the reproducibility of preoperative planning with increasing anteversion has been rarely assessed. The present study investigated it using two types of stems. This retrospective study included patients who underwent primary posterolateral THA using taper-wedge (TS group; 73 hips) and anatomical (AS group; 70 hips) stems. Characteristics of sex and age were matched in the two groups by propensity score matching. In both groups, the relationship between the preoperative three-dimensional planning and postoperative stem position, and the relationship between postoperative stem position and femoral neck anteversion (FNA) were evaluated. In the TS group, there were no significant differences in average stem anteversion (SA) between preoperative planning and postoperative placement (36.1° ± 7.0° and 36.6° ± 11.1°, respectively: p = 0.651). The absolute error of SA was 8.1° ± 6.4°. In the AS group, the postoperative SA was significantly smaller than the preoperative planning SA (22.7° ± 11.6° and 30.0° ± 9.3°, respectively: p < 0.001). The absolute error of SA was 9.0° ± 5.8°. The postoperative SA was significantly larger than the FNA in the TS group (36.6° ± 11.1° and 26.3° ± 10.9°, respectively: p < 0.001). However, no significant differences between the two were observed in the AS group (23.7° ± 10.1° and 22.7° ± 11.6°, respectively: p = 0.253). The preoperative planning of intentional increasing anteversion did not show high reproducibility with taper-wedge and anatomical stems. The anatomical stem was placed according to the femoral medullary canal regardless of preoperative planning with increased SA.

J Orthop Res 2024; 42:1283-1291.

Abstract
To avoid dislocation after total hip arthroplasty, it is desirable to avoid implant impingement during activities of daily living. Numerous simulation studies have been performed at 30° of internal rotation (IR) with 90° of flexion. However, these studies may not reflect the impingement that occurs during activities such as floor sitting, which require a larger IR during flexion. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of varying IR angles during flexion on the impingement-free safe zone and optimal stem anteversion. In this study, implant impingement simulation was evaluated in computer simulation. The prosthesis used a flat liner, and a 32- or 40-mm femoral head and stem. Three patterns of required IR angle (30° IR/40° IR/50° IR with 90° flexion) combined with 13 directions of the required range of motion were simulated. The optimal stem anteversion to maximize the safe zone was analyzed. Increasing the required IR at 90° flexion decreased the safe zone, particularly with small stem anteversion angles. With a 32-mm head, the desirable stem anteversion at 40° of cup inclination was 15°/25°/35° in required 30° IR/40° IR/50° IR with 90° flexion, respectively. The safe zone area of the 32-mm head was smaller than that of the 40-mm head. For patients who require a larger IR with 90° flexion, the stem and cup target anteversion should be adjusted according to the implant design, head diameter, and patient's required IR at flexion in their lifestyle.

Evaluation of femoral anteversion, hip rotation, and lateral patellar tilt after total hip arthroplasty using a changeable neck system. J Artif Organs 2021; 24:492-497. [PMID: 33899127 DOI: 10.1007/s10047-021-01269-1] [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: 02/15/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
In patients with secondary osteoarthritis due to acetabular dysplasia, femoral anteversion has many variations. A changeable neck system is one useful option to adjust the femoral anteversion. Retroverted necks can effectively adjust anatomical anteversion (AA), femoral rotational angle (FRA), and functional anteversion (FA); however, effectiveness of anteverted necks for these adjustments has not been investigated. Moreover, although the lateral patellar tilt after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been reported to externally rotate, the influence on lateral patellar tilt using a changeable neck system remains unknown. To clarify the effectiveness of anteverted necks in THA, 96 consecutive patients (111 hips) who underwent THA using anatomical short stem with a changeable neck system were retrospectively investigated using pre- and post-operative computed tomography. Patients were divided into the straight (ST) group using straight and 4-mm-high-offset neck (N = 34) and the anteverted (AV) group using 15°-anteverted and 15°-anteverted/3-mm-high-offset neck (N = 34) after age, body mass index, and surgical approach were matched using propensity scores. AA did not change in the ST group, while it increased by 14.0° in the AV group. FRA decreased after surgery in both groups. FA decreased after surgery in the ST group, while it did not change in the AV group. Lateral patella tilt did not significantly change in both groups between pre- and post-operative position. In conclusion, with a changeable neck system, straight and anteverted necks can adjust AA to achieve pre-operative planning while not influencing lateral patellar tilt.
