Katagiri H, Takahashi M, Murata H, Wasa J, Miyagi M, Honda Y. Direct femoral head approach without surgical dislocation for femoral head chondroblastoma: a report of two cases. BMC Surg 2022; 22:327. [PMID: 36038855 PMCID: PMC9422087 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-022-01766-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chondroblastomas are rare, benign, locally aggressive lesions that appear in the epiphysis. Surgery for femoral head chondroblastoma (FHCB) is difficult. Conventional treatment with curettage via a drilled tunnel along the femoral neck can damage the growth plate and is associated with high local recurrence rates. The trapdoor procedure, which directly facilitates lesion access from the femoral head articular surface, can reduce local recurrence and avoid growth plate damage, although it requires surgical dislocation. Little is known about the long-term results of this direct articular surface approach, and there are no case reports on trapdoor procedures without dislocation. CASE PRESENTATION We report two cases (patients aged 12 and 15 years) of FHCB presented with coxalgia treated using the trapdoor procedure without surgical dislocation. Both surgeries were performed with patients in the semi-lateral position. The hip joint was exposed via an anterior approach, and a capsulotomy was performed at the superior rim of the acetabulum, followed by the external rotation of the hip joint. With a fine osteotome, a rectangular flap (trapdoor) was opened on the cartilage surface in the lateral non-weight-bearing area, and curettage of the lesion followed by bone and/or bone substitute grafting was performed. Subsequently, the trapdoor was replaced in its original position. There has been no local recurrence or femoral head aseptic necrosis after more than 6 and 12 years for patients 1 and 2, respectively. Both patients had musculoskeletal tumor society scores of 100% at follow-up and are enjoying a normal active life. CONCLUSIONS This direct femoral head approach without dislocation may be a simple treatment alternative for FHCB.

Abstract
PURPOSE Femoral head chondroblastoma poses a surgical challenge. Anatomical limitations may lead to increased risk of local recurrence, damage to the articular cartilage, growth disturbances, and/or avascular necrosis (AVN). We are presenting our results with surgical hip dislocation approach with the aim to evaluate its efficacy in preventing recurrence and its safety, preserving a functional hip joint and avoiding complications. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ten patients were managed using surgical hip dislocation with direct access to femoral head lesions, extended curettage through a modified trapdoor approach, and cement reconstruction. These were six males and four females, with a mean age of 17 ± 2.7 years (range: 14-20) and a mean follow-up of 34 ± 12 months (range: 17-57). The lesion extended into the neck in 60% of patients with the physis being either closed in seven or closing in three patients. RESULTS We had a single case (10%) of recurrence at the trochanters for which re-curettage was done. However, all patients had their hips preserved with good function at the latest follow-up, and no serious complications recorded. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score improved significantly from a pre-operative median of 23.5 (range: 16-28) to a post-operative median of 29 (range: 26-30) (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION This report describes a safe reproducible approach to effectively manage these locally aggressive lesions with good short-term results. This is done while maintaining the integrity of the articular surface, growth plate, as well as preserving the femoral head blood supply.

[PMID: 34599644 PMCID: PMC8528993 DOI: 10.1111/os.13153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2020] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the outcomes of surgical management in the pediatric patients with extremity chondroblastoma. Especially the risk factors of recurrence and growth disorder. And discuss a potential method to decrease the rate of growth disorder by preventing the premature physeal closure. METHODS Fifteen girls and twenty-seven boys aged from two to 14 years (mean, 11 years) with histologically proven chondroblastoma, who presented from January 2011 to June 2018 at our Hospital, were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical data, radiographic images, histological findings, treatment, functional outcomes, and local recurrence rate were analyzed. Surgical treatment included complete curettage of the tumor and the walls of the lesion followed by bone grafting, No adjuvant methods were used. Recurrence was defined as a return of symptoms and an expansion radiolucency at the operated site. It was confirmed by the histopathological analysis. When recurrence was diagnosed, the medical data were analyzed to detect the effect of different factors on local recurrence. Functional outcome was measured according to Sailhan's functional criteria, designed to provide a standardized method of assessing pediatric chondroblastoma patient postoperatively. RESULTS The proximal part of the femur was the most frequently involved site. All the patients had at least 24 months of follow-up; mean duration was 30 months (range, 24-60 months). The local recurrence rate was 9.5%. Three resolved after repeat surgeries without further recurrence, one had a second recurrence and received another more aggressive curettage. Local recurrence of chondroblastoma was associated with age (P < 0.05), while not associated with sex, tumor location, the radiological character of the lesion or the grafting method (P > 0.05). No pulmonary metastasis was noted at latest follow-up. Five patients suffered from premature closure of physis due to physis injury. Thirty-one patients (73.8%) had a good outcome, and all returned to normal unrestricted activities. Six patients (14.3%) had a fair outcome due to occasional pain, asymmetric range of motion, or radiographic joint changes without arthritis. And five patients (11.9%) had a poor outcome because of chronic pain, loss of joint motion impairing normal life activities, or a limb-length discrepancy and limp. CONCLUSIONS Aggressive curettage and bone grafting resulted in local control and good outcomes in most pediatric patients. Being less than 12 years of age was the risk factor for recurrence. For those growing patients, premature physeal closure was observed after the curettage, interpositional technique with PMMA would be a good choice for prevention.

Abstract
Femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI), is the result of an abnormal morphology of the hip joint. On the femoral side, asphericity of the head can be highlighted by an alpha angle measurement >50° on computed tomography or MRI. However, some particular cephalic asphericities can make it difficult to measure the alpha angle, leading to a diagnostic pitfall. While in the classic cam effect, the deformity is peripheral and can be treated by arthroscopic femoroplasty, an apical head deformity remains a therapeutic challenge. We present the case of a 17-year-old male patient with a femoral head deformity, corresponding to an ISHA zone 6 overhang, significantly improved in everyday and sports life by arthroscopic trapdoor technique to resect the focal central deformity while enabling concomitant treatment of central compartment pathology, in this case, a hypertrophic ligamentum teres and femoral head chondral flap. Etiology of this femoral head deformity remains uncertain but could be a particular cam deformity, sequelae to pediatric disease or instability with repeated traction of the ligament teres on the femoral head apical insertion during cephalic growth.

Abstract
Background and objectives Treatment of benign osteolytic lesions in the femoral head and neck can be extremely challenging, particularly in children with open physis or for aggressive tumors with pathological fracture. There remains the difficult management decision as to whether to perform complete excision of the involved area or only curettage. Moreover, there is no agreed consensus on the optimal approach to lesion access when performing curettage, which included the transcervical, open and direct approach. The current systematic review aims to provide guidance for selection of surgical methods in clinical practice by comparing the advantages and drawbacks of different procedures. Methods A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases were executed for human studies restricted to the English language. The search was filtered to include studies published from January 1980 to January 2020. Results A total of 33 articles including 274 patients were enrolled in the final analysis. The most common diagnosis was chondroblastoma (CBT) (104, 38.0%), followed by giant cell tumor (GCT) (56, 20.4%). There were 57 (20.8%) patients with pathological fracture. Intralesional curettage was performed in 257 (93.8%) patients with the local recurrence of 12.5% at the mean follow-up of 51.5 months. The patients who were presented with open physis or curetted via transcervical approach developed higher local recurrence in patients with CBT (P < 0.001). The local recurrence rate of GCT is 33.3% after curettage, while 8 of 9 (88.9%) patients with fracture were treated successfully with joint preservation. Two of 45 (4.4%) patients developed avascular necrosis (AVN) of femoral head after surgical hip dislocation. The reported Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) Score was comparable among patients with different approaches to curettage. Conclusion The majority of benign osteolytic lesions in the femoral head and neck can be treated with intralesional curettage with acceptable local tumor control and satisfactory function. The incidence of local recurrence might be decreased dramatically for lesion access under direct visualization. The native joint maintenance could be achieved even in patients with aggressive lesions presenting pathological fracture.

Abstract
We reported the first case to use navigation for the femoral head chondroblastoma. Visualization of tumor on navigation helps to minimize unnecessary destruction. Navigation assistance is an optimal surgical option for chondroblastoma in the femoral head.
Introduction Surgery for chondroblastoma in the femoral head is challenging due to its inaccessibility, with high risk of local recurrence and poor functional outcomes reported. We herein report the first case of chondroblastoma in the femoral head treated by navigation-assisted surgery. Presentation of case A 12-year-old girl presented with persistent left hip pain and limited hip range of motion. Imaging studies revealed a well-defined osteolytic lesion in the left femoral head accompanied by extensive intra-osseous oedematous change. The bone lesion was radiologically diagnosed as chondroblastoma. With navigation assistance, curettage was performed via the anterior approach. The tumor was fully accessible from the femoral neck. After curettage, the bony defect was filled with bone substitute. The pathological diagnosis was chondroblastoma. The post-operative course was uneventful. Thirty months postoperatively, the patient was free of pain with full hip range of motion, and MR images showed no evidence of recurrence or osteonecrosis. Discussion This case is the first to use a navigation system for the treatment of chondroblastoma in the femoral head. The navigation system can minimize damage to intact structures and increase the efficiency of curettage by visualizing access to the tumor. Conclusion Navigation assistance is an optimal surgical option for chondroblastoma in the femoral head.

Abstract
Chondroblastoma is a rare benign tumor that affects the epiphysis of long bones in adolescents. Chondroblastoma located in the femoral head is associated with a higher recurrence rate and carries the additional risks of head collapse and degenerative hip disease. Aggressive curettage followed by bone grafting is the current mainstay of treatment. To our knowledge, the long-term postoperative outcome of this technique remains unknown due to the short follow-up of previous case reports. We present the case of a 17-year-old male who underwent fresh osteochondral allograft following curettage of a femoral head chondroblastoma, using a Ganz surgical hip dislocation. He made an uneventful recovery without tumor recurrence. The patient was followed up to 8 years postoperatively. However, there were clinical and radiographic degenerative changes at 6 years of follow-up.

Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is a common surgical technique, yet it has severe complications, such as loosening and repeated revision. Thus, hip-preserving surgical options should be considered first to treat cartilage defects in the femoral head, especially for younger patients. Current surgical options for chondral repair of the femoral head include microfracture, trapdoor procedure, transplantation of osteochondral allografts and autografts, and autologous chondrocyte implantation. Each of these techniques has unique advantages and limitations; however, none of them have been consented as the best practice for cartilage defects. In this review article, we also introduced a novel technique for repairing osteochondral defects of the femoral head using autologous costal cartilage grafts that may have good translational potential for cost-effective and safe applications. The translational potential of this article This review updates current surgical options for reparing articular cartilage defects in the femoral head. We also introduce a novel technique for repairing osteochondral defects of the femoral head using autologous costal cartilage grafts.

Abstract
AIMS Aseptic loosening is a major cause of failure in cemented endoprosthetic reconstructions. This paper presents the long-term outcomes of a custom-designed cross-pin fixation construct designed to minimize rotational stress and subsequent aseptic loosening in selected patients. The paper will also examine the long-term survivorship and modes of failure when using this technique. PATIENTS AND METHODS A review of 658 consecutive, prospectively collected cemented endoprosthetic reconstructions for oncological diagnoses at a single centre between 1980 and 2017 was performed. A total of 51 patients were identified with 56 endoprosthetic implants with cross-pin fixation, 21 of which were implanted following primary resection of tumour. Locations included distal femoral (n = 36), proximal femoral (n = 7), intercalary (n = 6), proximal humeral (n = 3), proximal tibial (n = 3), and distal humeral (n = 1). RESULTS The median follow-up was 132 months (interquartile range (IQR) 44 to 189). In all, 20 stems required revision: eight for infection, five for structural failure, five for aseptic loosening, and two for tumour progression. Mechanical survivorship at five, ten, and 15 years was 84%, 78%, and 78%, respectively. Mechanical failure rate varied by location, with no mechanical failures of proximal femoral constructs and distal femoral survivorship of 82%, 77%, and 77% at five, ten, and 15 years. The survivorship of primary constructs at five years was 74%, with no failure after 40 months, while the survivorship for revision constructs was 89%, 80%, and 80% at five, ten, and 15 years. CONCLUSION The rate of mechanical survivorship in our series is similar to those reported for other methods of reconstruction for short diaphyseal segments, such as compressive osseointegration. The mechanical failure rate differed by location, while there was no substantial difference in long-term survival between primary and revision reconstructions. Overall, custom cross-pin fixation is a viable option for endoprosthetic reconstruction of short metaphyseal segments with an acceptable rate of mechanical failure.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the surgical dislocation approach and modified trapdoor procedure for the treatment of chondroblastoma of the femoral head. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 17 patients (ten boys, seven girls; mean age 16.4 years (11 to 26)) diagnosed with chondroblastoma of the femoral head who underwent surgical dislocation of the hip joint, modified trapdoor procedure, curettage, and bone grafting were enrolled in this study and were followed-up for a mean of 35.9 months (12 to 76). Healing and any local recurrence were assessed via clinical and radiological tests. Functional outcome was evaluated using the Musculoskeletal Tumour Society scoring system (MSTS). Patterns of bone destruction were evaluated using the Lodwick classification. Secondary osteoarthritis was classified via radiological analysis following the Kellgren-Lawrence grading system. Steinberg classification was used to evaluate osteonecrosis of the femoral head. RESULTS The epiphyseal plate was open, closing, and closed in five, five, and seven patients, respectively. In total, eight, six, and three patients were classified as having Lodwick classification IA, IB, and IC, respectively. Allogeneic and autogenous bone grafting was used in 13 and four patients, respectively. All patients had good bone healing and no local recurrence was observed. One patient developed osteonecrosis of the femoral head (Steinberg IA) and one developed secondary osteoarthritis of the hip joint (Kellgren-Lawrence Grade II). The mean postoperative MSTS functional score was 27.7 (24 to 30). CONCLUSION Surgical dislocation and modified trapdoor procedures are safe and effective techniques for treating chondroblastoma in the femoral head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical access to benign neoplastic lesions of the femoral head are associated with significant morbidity, including contamination of intra-osseous access tracks, articular cartilage lesions, avascular bone necrosis or tumour recurrence due to incomplete curettage. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a 20-year-old female with a giant cell tumour in the femoral head, which was treated with curettage through a trans-foveal approach and bone grafting. This technique includes a surgical dislocation of the hip with trochanteric osteotomy. RESULTS At the latest follow-up at 2 years, there was no evidence of local recurrence or avascular necrosis on MRI, and the patient was pain free and back to sports.
