Abstract
PURPOSE Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a progressive hip disease. Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is a preferred surgical procedure among hip arthroplasty performed in young patients. The aim of this study is to show the long-term clinical and radiological results of HRA procedures performed for patients suffering from ONFH. METHODS Forty-five patients who underwent hip resurfacing with the diagnosis of femoral head osteonecrosis were included in the study. The Harris Hip Score (HHS) was used for clinical scoring of the patients. The blood chromium, cobalt, white blood cell (WBC) count, and CRP levels of patients were checked. Ultrasonography (USG) was performed for all patients at mid-term control checked for pseudo-tumours. For the radiological evaluation, acetabular inclination, stem shaft angle, prothesis-to-neck ratio, osteolysis zones, and heterotopic ossification were used. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 46.6 ± 9.3 years, and the mean follow-up period was 11.83 ± 2.9 years. The mean HHS was 90.3 ± 12.8 for final follow-up. The mean WBC value was 8.2 109/L, mean CRP value was 6.3 mg/L, mean chromium value was 4.9 µg/L, and mean cobalt value was 1.8 µg/L. Inclination changing 0.2°(p = 0.788), stem shaft angle changing 0.7°(p = 0.424), and neck-to-prosthesis ratio changing 0.01°(p = 0.075). No pseudo-tumours were detected in any patients in USG examination. CONCLUSION HRA provides long-term implant survival and excellent clinical outcomes for end-stage ONFH patients with low complication rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE Revision of failed large head metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a challenging procedure particularly to reconstruct acetabular bone defect due to osteolysis and to achieve hip stability due to soft tissue damages, both potentially caused by adverse reaction to metal debris (ARMD). This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of dual mobility cup (DMC) constructs in revision THA for failed large head MoM bearings with a special attention to the occurrence of dislocation or re-revision. METHODS Between 2015 and 2019, 57 patients (64 THAs, 41 men, mean age = 65 ± 10 years) underwent revision for MoM THA with the use of DMC were prospectively included in our total joint registry. Mean time to revision was 11 ± 2.5 years. The causes for revision were adverse reaction to metal debris (ARMD) in 49 THAs (76%), painful hip with elevated blood cobalt-chromium ions in seven (11%), and acetabular aseptic loosening in eight (13%). The revision was complete in 22 THAs (34%) and acetabular only in 42 (66%). Clinical and radiographic outcomes, complications, and re-revisions were evaluated at most recent follow-up. RESULTS At mean follow-up of six ± 1.5 years, the pre- to postoperative Harris Hip Score improved from 74 ± 19 to 92 ± 4 (p = 0.004). Complications occurred in 11 cases (17%): five dislocations (8%), three periprosthetic infections (5%), two aseptic loosening of the acetabular component (3%), and two periprosthetic fractures (3%). Re-revision was required in six cases (9%). CONCLUSION The use of DMC is a reliable option to prevent instability and ensure a stable acetabular reconstruction in revision THA for failed large head MoM bearings. However, dislocation after revision remains a concern, particularly in cases of severe soft tissue damage related to ARMD.

Abstract
We present key information from international registries in relation to primary total hip arthroplasty. The specific questions of interest include which bearings are superior in total hip arthroplasty (THA), which fixation types are optimal, do any specific implants perform better than others, and what is the latest update in the hip fracture setting? This is a comprehensive review of the major English-speaking hip arthroplasty registries across the globe. Key trends and developments in implant performance are identified and presented in the current article. Key points from review of all registries confirm that ceramic-on-polyethylene and metal-on-polyethylene continue to be the commonest bearings. The use of cemented femoral stems is increasing across most regions. Hybrid fixation is now the commonest fixation method in the UK for the first time in registry history. Uncemented femoral stems have a higher early revision rate for periprosthetic fracture than cemented stems across most regions. Dual mobility (DM) bearings are increasing in use and show higher early revision rates than unipolar bearings-they tend to be used for more complex indications (fracture/tumor/revision) and show similar revision rates to unipolar bearings when used exclusively in primary elective THA for osteoarthritis. We present current trends in THA based on current registry data from across the globe. Clinical signals of concern are emerging for THA uncemented femoral stem fixation and DM bearings in specific clinical contexts. These signals should be monitored across the literature in order to reduce the overall revision burden.

Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty for Aseptically Failed Metal-On-Metal Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2022; 37:2399-2405. [PMID: 35738361 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.06.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND While common, studies assessing outcomes of failed metal-on-metal (MoM) resurfacings converted to total hip arthroplasties (THAs) are limited. We determined the outcomes following revision THA of aseptic MoM hip resurfacings. METHODS Between 2000 and 2019, we identified 52 revision THAs for failed MoM hip resurfacings through our total joint registry. Mean age was 55 years, 42% were women, and mean body mass index was 28 kg/m2. Adverse local tissue response led to THA in 67% of the cases. The most common revision articulation was metal-on-cross-linked or ceramic-on-cross-linked polyethylene (71%). Median head size was 36 mm. The acetabular component was retained in 21% and 28% used dual-mobility constructs. The mean follow-up was 6 years (range, 2-12 years). RESULTS The 5-year survivorships free of any re-revision or reoperation were 89% and 85%, respectively. The primary cause of re-revision (6) was dislocation (4). The 5-year cumulative probability of dislocation was 19% and was 13% in those patients treated with dual-mobility constructs versus 22% in those treated with standard articulations (P = .58). No dislocations occurred in THAs with retained acetabular components and dual-mobility constructs versus a 5-year cumulative probability of dislocation of 25% in those with revised acetabular components and standard articulations (P = .24). CONCLUSION Revision THAs for aseptically failed MoM hip resurfacings yielded a 5-year survivorship free of re-revision of 89%. The main reason for failure was dislocation, which was reduced, but not statistically significantly, when a dual-mobility construct was used, especially if the acetabular component was retained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the high success rate of total hip arthroplasty (THA), new implant technologies continue to be developed. Although potentially useful, such novel developments may result in unintended consequences, leading to revision surgery, often prematurely. In several instances, new technology that appeared promising was later found to be inferior to existing technology and resulting in early revision surgery. Additionally, technical surgical errors may also lead to early revisions. Some have argued that revisions related to such phenomena are potentially avoidable. The present analysis investigates to what extent the contribution of "failed new technology" and "technical errors" contributes to the revision burden and to the need for premature revision arthroplasty. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 432 revision THAs and categorised them as either "late revisions" based on survivorship of 10 years or "premature revisions". Among both cohorts, we determined what percentage of revisions were potentially avoidable and due to failed novel technologies and technical errors, and what percent were "unavoidable". RESULTS Of the 432 revisions, 267 (62%) were considered premature and 38% were considered late. Of the premature revisions, 108 were considered potentially avoidable (81 failed novel technologies, 27 technical errors). CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrates that new technology and surgical techniques can result in premature failure of THA. Surgeons should take caution when incorporating new implant technology or surgical techniques into their practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of metal-on-metal (MoM) articulations in total hip arthroplasty (THA) has sharply declined due to high failure rates from metal-related complications. Although certain MoM designs have demonstrated only 46% survival, not all MoM designs have performed the same. The purpose of this study is to evaluate mid-term to long-term survival of a specific MoM implant with a modular titanium taper adapter. METHODS A retrospective review was performed on all patients who underwent primary THA at our center with the M2a-Magnum system (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN). Of 829 patients (956 hips) identified, 754 patients (869 hips) met inclusion criteria of signed research consent, minimum 2-year follow-up, and/or any revision surgery. RESULTS Mean follow-up was 11.0 years (range 2-16; ±3.5). Mean cup angle of inclination was 42.8° (range 24°-70°, ±6.3°), with 88.0% reconstructed within the 40° ± 10° safe zone. There were 64 revisions (7.36%): 7 (0.81%) septic and 57 (6.56%) aseptic. Of those, 32 (3.68%) were adverse reactions to metal debris. Kaplan-Meier survival free of revision for all causes was 88.6% at 16 years (95% confidence interval 86.8-90.4). Univariate analysis of risk factors for all-cause, aseptic, and adverse reaction to metal debris revision found no relationship with female gender, age ≥65 years, body mass index >30 kg/m2, higher activity level, or inclination angle outlier. CONCLUSION The results of this study demonstrate a more favorable mid-term to long-term survivorship with this specific MoM implant compared to other designs. Although our institution no longer performs MoM THA, further investigation into differences in MoM implant designs is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND National and international guidelines lack consistency on how to screen metal-on-metal (MoM) hip arthroplasty patients for adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD). Long-term outcomes of MoM hip arthroplasty are scarce, hindering further development of such guidelines. We present the clinical, radiological and ARMD status of 158 cases of hip resurfacing with >10 years follow-up. METHODS A prospective analysis of a cohort of 298 consecutive hip resurfacing procedures was performed at a single institution. All patients underwent MARS-MRI scanning for pseudotumour screening at least once, regardless of symptoms. Implant survival and reasons for revision were analysed for all patients. Clinical, radiological and MARS-MRI results were analysed for 158 unrevised procedures with >10 years follow-up. RESULTS The implant survival was 85.9% at 14.5 years (95% CI, 81.9-90.6) with revision for all causes as endpoint and 92.3% with MoM disease-related revisions excluded (95% CI, 88.2-95.0). Of the 158 cases with >10 years follow-up, 1 had elevated metal ion levels, 29 had a stable C1 pseudotumour and 6 a stable C2 pseudotumour. All pseudotumours were observed within 3 years after initiating our intensified ARMD screening (2011), with no new pseudotumours observed after that period. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that follow-up of MoM hip resurfacing patients beyond 10 years after surgery can be done with large intervals (i.e. every 5 years), and only earlier if a patient becomes symptomatic.

Abstract
Objective The aim of the present study was to evaluate the 10‐year outcomes of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) in adult patients with the late sequelae of septic arthritis of the hip. Methods We followed 166 consecutive patients (168 hips) who underwent cementless THA between March 2001 and December 2011. There were 79 men and 87 women, with a mean age of 50.4 years (range 21–76 years) at the time of index THA, all of whom had hip osteoarthritis secondary to hip pyogenic infection. The average duration of follow up was 10.6 years (range 6.9–17.2 years). Preoperative and postoperative clinical ratings were evaluated, including the hip dysfunction and osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS), the Harris hip score (HHS), range of motion, a 100‐point visual analog scale for hip pain, and the severity of limp and limb length discrepancy (LLD). The anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the hip and full‐length view of the lower extremities were obtained to assess the position of the components, radiolucent lines, osteolysis, loosening of components, and heterotopic ossification. The intraoperative and postoperative complications were also recorded. Results The mean HSS and hip pain score were 44.2 points (range 29–66 points) and 42.5 points (range 32–64 points), respectively, before the index surgery and significantly improved to 88.1 points (range 78–96 points) and 15.1 points (range 10–26 points), respectively, at final follow‐up examination. The HOOS and range of motion also improved significantly. The mean limb length discrepancy was reduced from 2.6 to 0.8 cm. The limp at last follow‐up examination was moderate in 3 cases because of hip osteoarthritis in the other limb, slight in 26, and absent in 137. A radiolucent line was observed in 12 hips (7.1%) around the acetabular or femoral components. A progressive radiolucent line around the undersized femoral stem in all zones was seen in 1 hip, resulting in aseptic loosening and breakage of the femoral component. There were 8 cases of intraoperative fracture, 7 cases of dislocation, and 7 cases of transient nerve palsy. Recurrence of infection occurred in 2 hips. Revision surgery was conducted in 2 hips because of isolated loosening of the acetabular cup and the femoral stem, respectively. Kaplan–Meier survival was 97% at 10 years, with revision for any reason with any component as an end‐point. Conclusion Improved surgical techniques and development of components with various sizes provided favorable results for cementless THA conducted for late sequelae of sepsis in these young and active patients. Although the incidence of complications was relatively high, the complications were treated successfully.

Abstract
AIMS A limited number of investigations with conflicting results have described perivascular lymphocytic infiltration (PVLI) in the setting of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this study was to determine if PVLI found in TKAs at the time of aseptic revision surgery was associated with worse clinical outcomes and survivorship. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on 617 patients who underwent aseptic TKA revision who had histological analysis for PVLI at the time of surgery. Clinical and radiological data were obtained pre- and postoperatively, six weeks postoperatively, and then every year thereafter. RESULTS Within this cohort, 118 patients (19.1%) were found to have PVLI on histological analysis. Re-revision was performed on 83 patients (13.4%) with no significant differences in all-cause or aseptic revisions between groups. A higher incidence of PVLI was noted in female patients (p = 0.037). There was no significant difference in improvement in the range of motion (p = 0.536), or improvement of KSC (p = 0.66), KSP (p = 0.61), or KSF (p = 0.3) clinical outcome scores between PVLI and no PVLI sub-groups. There was a higher incidence of a preoperative diagnosis of pain in the PVLI group compared with patients without PVLI (p = 0.002) present. CONCLUSION PVLI found on large-scale histological analysis in TKAs at aseptic revision surgery was not associated with worse clinical outcomes or rates of re-revision.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Our first aim was to report the longitudinal clinical performance of patients treated with the ASR Hip System, a metal-on-metal (MoM) device, in their mid- to late-term follow-up. Secondly, we sought to report on the reasons and risk factors for mid- to late-term implant failure. METHODS A total of 1721 ASR patients (1933 hips) from 16 centres in 6 countries were enrolled to a prospective, post-recall study. The average time to enrollment was 7.4 years from index surgery. Data from 3 follow-up visits over 2 years were analysed. Implant performance, based on ion levels and PROMs, was determined at each clinical visit. RESULTS The proportion of those exhibiting good performance decreased over time for hip resurfacing (ASR HRA) and total hip arthroplasty (ASR XL) patients. ASR XL patients were likely to exhibit longitudinal blood metal ion increases regardless of symptom state. ASR HRA patients were more likely to present with and maintain good performance over time, especially males with high general health indicators. 6% of ASR HRA and 14% of ASR XL patients were revised throughout the study period. DISCUSSION ASR XL THA patients are likely to exhibit blood metal ion increases without accompanying changes in symptom state, and therefore should be followed with annual blood tests at minimum. While appropriately selected ASR HRA patients were the most likely to exhibit low blood metal ion levels and report no symptoms, we recommend vigilant follow-up of all ASR patients to ensure that worsening clinical outcomes and asymptomatic soft tissue damage are not missed.

[PMID: 33220707 PMCID: PMC7680591 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-020-03797-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Given the unexpected high rate of failure following metal-on-metal total hip replacement (MoM-THR), it is expected that more MoM-THR patients will experience revision. The long-term outcomes regarding the primary MoM-THR revised to cemented THR (CTHR) remain controversial. The purpose of this retrospective review was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients who underwent conversion from MoM-THR to CTHR. METHODS A total of 220 patients (220 hips) who underwent a conversion of primary MoM-THR to CTHR from March 2006 to October 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The primary outcomes were the functional outcomes assessed using the Harris hip scores (HHS) and major radiographic outcomes. Follow-ups occurred at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and then every two years after revision. RESULTS Mean follow-up was 10.1 years (5-13 years). Distinct improvements were detected in the mean HHS between the preoperative and last follow-up analysis (62.35[±8.49] vs. 84.70[±14.68], respectively, p < 0.001). The key orthopaedic complication rate was 18.2% (27/148). Seven (4.7%) cases experienced a CTHR failure at a mean of 3.4 (±1.2) years after revision MoM-THR, mostly attributed to recurrent dislocation. CONCLUSION CTHR might yield an acceptable functional score and a low rate of the key orthopaedic complications.

Abstract
Aims Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is typically indicated for young and active patients. Due to the longevity of arthroplasty, these patients are likely to undergo revision surgery during their lifetime. There is a paucity of information on the long-term outcome of revision surgeries performed after failed HRA. The aim of our study was to provide survivorship data as well as clinical scores after HRA revisions. Methods A total of 42 patients (43 hips) were revised after HRA at our centre to a variety of devices, including four HRA and 39 total hip arthroplasties (THAs). In addition to perioperative complications, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) hip scores and 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaire (SF-12) quality of life scores were collected at follow-up visits after the primary HRA and after revision surgery. Results The mean follow-up time after revision surgery was 8.3 years (0.3 to 19.1). The mean UCLA pain and function scores post-revision were comparable with the best scores achieved by the patients after the index HRA, but UCLA activity scores were lower after revision. SF-12 physical component scores were comparable between timepoints, but the mental component score decreased after revision. Six patients underwent unilateral re-revision surgery at a mean follow-up time of 7.8 years (0.3 to 13.7). Using the time to any re-revision as endpoint, the Kaplan-Meier survivorship was 85.3% at 13 years. Conclusion Patients undergoing revision after HRA can expect to achieve function and quality of life similar to their best after their primary surgery, while the risk of re-revision is low.

Abstract
Background and purpose - There is limited amount of evidence about optimal revision indications, technique, and implants when performing revision surgery for metal-on-metal (MoM) hip replacements due to adverse reaction to metal debris (ARMD). We assessed which factors are related to re-revisions and complications after a revision of MoM hip arthroplasty because of ARMD. We also aimed to provide information on optimal implants for these revisions.Patients and methods - 420 MoM total hip arthroplasties (THA) and 108 MoM hip resurfacings were implanted and later revised at our institution. We used Cox regression to analyze the factors associated with re-revisions and complications after a revision for ARMD.Results - A re-revision was performed on 27 THAs (6%) and 9 resurfacings (8%). The most common indication for re-revision was recurrent dislocation (20 hips, 4%). Complications not leading to re-revision were seen in 21 THAs (5%) and 6 resurfacings (6%). The most common complication was dislocation treated with closed reduction in 13 hips (2%). Use of revision head size > 36mm was associated with decreased risk for dislocations. Presence of pseudotumor, pseudotumor grade, pseudotumor size, or the choice of bearing couple were not observed to affect the risk for re-revision. Non-linear association was observed between preoperative cobalt and risk for re-revision.Interpretation - As dislocation was the most frequent post-revision complication, large head sizes should be used in revisions. Because size or type of pseudotumor were not associated with risk of re-revision, clinicians may have to reconsider, how much weight is put on the imaging findings when deciding whether or not to revise. In our data blood cobalt was associated with risk for re-revision, but this finding needs further assessment.

Abstract
Introduction Periprosthetic fracture is the most common cause of reoperation after resurfacing arthroplasty. The majority of fractures associated with this kind of arthroplasty are mostly subcapital fractures. Inter- and sub-trochanteric fractures after resurfacing arthroplasty are rarely reported, and there is no consensus regarding the treatment of such fractures. Case Report We present the case of a patient in whom an intertrochanteric femoral fracture distal to a hip resurfacing implant was successfully managed by internal fixation with the use of a locking compression plate (LCP), after failed conservative management. We also discuss an in-depth literature review on the topic. Conclusion We believe that osteosynthesis is a better option than arthroplasty in the management of such injuries. Due to technical issues discussed in our paper, we believe LCP to be an optimal fixation device.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revision of monoblock metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with high complication rates. Limited revision by conversion to a dual mobility (DM) without acetabular component extraction may mitigate these complications. However, the concern for polyethylene wear and osteolysis remains unsettled. This study investigates the results of DM conversion of monoblock MoM THA compared to formal acetabular revision. METHODS One hundred forty-three revisions of monoblock MoM THA were reviewed. Twenty-nine were revisions to a DM construct, and 114 were complete revisions of the acetabular component. Mean patient age was 61, 54% were women. Components used, acetabular cup position, radiographic outcomes, serum metal ion levels, and HOOS Jr clinical outcome scores were investigated. RESULTS At 3.9 years of follow-up (range 2-5), there were 2 revisions (6.9%) in the DM cohort, 1 for instability and another for periprosthetic fracture. Among the formal acetabular revision group there was a 20% major complication rate (23/114) and 16% underwent revision surgery (18/114) for aseptic loosening of the acetabular component (6%), deep infection (6%), dislocation (4%), acetabular fracture (3%), or delayed wound healing (6%). In the DM cohort, there were no radiographic signs of aseptic loosening, component migration, or polyethylene wear. One DM patient had a small posterior metadiaphyseal femur lesion that will require close monitoring. There were no other radiographic signs of osteolysis. There were no clinically significant elevations of serum metal ion levels. HOOS Jr scores were favorable. CONCLUSION Limited revision with conversion to DM is a viable treatment option for failed monoblock MoM THA with lower complication rates than formal revision. Limited revision to DM appears to be a safe option for revision of monoblock MoM THA with a cup in good position and an internal geometry free of sharp edges or articular surface damage. Longer follow-up is needed to demonstrate any potential wear implications of these articulations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal-on-metal (MoM) revisions have shown high rates of complications from aseptic loosening, deep infection, and dislocation. The purpose of this study is to report on outcomes and complications of a large consecutive series of patients who were revised for failed MoM total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS We evaluated 188 patients (203 hips) who underwent revisions of failed MoM THA. Mean age at the revision was 60 years old. Gender was female in 112 hips (55%) and male in 91 hips (45%). Mean interval to failure after primary THA was 4.9 years (range, 0-18 years). The acetabular component was revised in 183 cases (92%). Clinical outcomes assessed included pain score and Harris hip score. RESULTS Mean follow-up from revision was 4.2 years. Harris hip score improved from 53.6 pre-revision to 73.5 at most recent follow-up (P < .001). Pain level significantly improved from 17.2 pre-revision to 32.8 post-revision (P < .001). Reoperations occurred in 28 (14%) hips. Re-revision was required in 16 hips (7.9%). The most common reasons for re-revision were aseptic loosening (5), dislocation (3), infection (2), and iliopsoas tendonitis (2). Re-revision was significantly higher in cases of pseudotumor. There was no difference in survival with ultraporous cups. Three hips required re-revision to custom triflange components. All-cause survival was 90.5% at 4.2 years. Metal ion levels significantly declined after revision. CONCLUSION Revisions of failed MoM THA showed improvements in clinical outcomes, but present significant surgical challenges and complications especially in cases with soft tissue damage and pseudotumor.

No Threshold Exists for Recommending Revision Surgery in Metal-on-Metal Hip Arthroplasty Patients With Adverse Reactions to Metal Debris: A Retrospective Cohort Study of 346 Revisions. J Arthroplasty 2019; 34:1483-1491.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgeons currently have difficulty when managing metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty (MoMHA) patients with adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD). This stems from a lack of evidence, which is emphasized by the variability in the recommendations proposed by different worldwide regulatory authorities for considering MoMHA revision surgery. We investigated predictors of poor outcomes following MoMHA revision surgery performed for ARMD to help inform the revision threshold and type of reconstruction. METHODS We retrospectively studied 346 MoMHA revisions for ARMD performed at 2 European centers. Preoperative (metal ions/imaging) and intraoperative (findings, components removed/implanted) factors were used to predict poor outcomes. Poor outcomes were postoperative complications (including re-revision), 90-day mortality, and poor Oxford Hip Score. RESULTS Poor outcomes occurred in 38.5%. Shorter time (under 4 years) to revision surgery was the only preoperative predictor of poor outcomes (odds ratio [OR] = 2.12, confidence interval [CI] = 1.00-4.46). Prerevision metal ions and imaging did not influence outcomes. Single-component revisions (vs all-component revisions) increased the risk of poor outcomes (OR = 2.99, CI = 1.50-5.97). Intraoperative modifiable factors reducing the risk of poor outcomes included the posterior approach (OR = 0.22, CI = 0.10-0.49), revision head sizes ≥36 mm (vs <36 mm: OR = 0.37, CI = 0.18-0.77), ceramic-on-polyethylene revision bearings (OR vs ceramic-on-ceramic = 0.30, CI = 0.14-0.66), and metal-on-polyethylene revision bearings (OR vs ceramic-on-ceramic = 0.37, CI = 0.17-0.83). CONCLUSION No threshold exists for recommending revision in MoMHA patients with ARMD. However postrevision outcomes were surgeon modifiable. Optimal outcomes may be achieved if surgeons use the posterior approach, revise all MoMHA components, and use ≥36 mm ceramic-on-polyethylene or metal-on-polyethylene articulations.

Abstract
This study reviewed literature published in the last 10 years to investigate the reasons for revision failure. A total of 9952 revisions were identified and it was determined that the number one cause of failure was aseptic loosening (23.19%), followed by instability (22.43%) and infection (22.13%). Further analysis of applicable revisions investigated BMI and age at the failure rates. The rate of rerevision in obese patients was markedly higher (p < 0.01) compared to non-obese patients and individuals receiving a revision THA under the age of 55 are at a higher risk of rerevision (p < 0.01).

What Is the Clinical Presentation of Adverse Local Tissue Reaction in Metal-on-metal Hip Arthroplasty? An MRI Study. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2019; 477:353-360.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR) is not only a prominent cause of metal-on-metal (MoM) implant revision, but may also compromise the result of revision surgery. Patients treated with MoM arthroplasty and subsequently revised as a result of ALTR have been shown to experience worse patient-reported outcomes, inferior survivorship, and more complications when compared with patients receiving MoM implants who were revised for reasons other than ALTR. There is conflicting evidence as to whether the presence of symptoms is associated with ALTR in patients with MoM implants. Blood metal ions are associated with ALTR, but a consensus on appropriate thresholds associated with ALTR risk is lacking. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Was the presence of symptoms as measured by patient-reported outcome measures associated with ALTR presence and severity as noted on metal artifact reduction sequence (MARS)-MRI in patients treated with one design of MoM THA or hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA)? (2) Could reliable thresholds for blood metal ion levels be determined that were associated with ALTR presence on MARS-MRI? METHODS This retrospective study presents a secondary analysis of data drawn from a prospective, international, multicenter study of the recalled Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip system. This larger study aims to identify risk factors for revision and provide followup guidelines for the many unrevised ASR patients. A total of 1721 patients were enrolled from 16 centers in six countries after the device was recalled and are followed annually for 5 years. In the present analysis, data from the enrollment visit (mean time from index surgery, 7.5 years; SD 3.5 years) were considered. Only patients from two centers conducting MARS-MRI on all patients regardless of clinical presentation as a standard of care were included to avoid selection bias. A total of 327 unilateral patients fulfilled our inclusion criteria (90% of those eligible). The level of symptoms was systematically determined using the Harris hip score and a visual analog scale for pain, and whole blood metal ion levels were collected from all patients. MARS-MRIs were analyzed by a single reader for ALTR presence (Anderson classification), diameter, and synovial thickness. A validation series of 35 MARS-MRIs indicated excellent intrareader reproducibility of the evaluations (intraclass correlation = 0.82) and substantial agreement (κ coefficient = 0.64) was achieved between the MARS-MRI reader and a musculoskeletal radiologist with > 10 years of experience with MARS-MRI. Binary logistic regression was used to determine variables independently associated with ALTR. Receiver operator characteristic curves were used to determine sensitive and specific cut points for cobalt and chromium. RESULTS After controlling for confounding variables, presence of symptoms was determined to be a risk factor for ALTR (odds ratio, 2.9; p = 0.007) in patients treated with ASR MoM THA. Moreover, among patients undergoing ASR MoM THA with ALTR, synovial thickness correlated with symptomaticity (p = 0.030). For patients undergoing ASR MoM HRA, we found no association between symptoms and ALTR prevalence or severity. A cobalt cutoff of 3.2 parts per billion (ppb) was associated with increased risk of ALTR (p < 0.001; sensitivity, 68%; specificity, 71%) in ASR MoM THA. In patients with ASR MoM HRA, a cobalt threshold of 2.9 ppb was indicative of ALTR (p < 0.001; sensitivity, 79%; specificity, 69%). CONCLUSIONS The risk factors identified in the current study may be used to stratify patients receiving MoM implants in terms of ALTR risk. We found that symptoms are associated with an increased likelihood of ALTR presence in ASR MoM THA and that cobalt ion level is associated with ALTR in ASR MoM THA as well as ASR MoM HRA. Importantly, MoM HRA followup protocols that exempt asymptomatic patients from annual followup are not justified because asymptomatic patients are no less likely to have ALTR than symptomatic patients. Blood metal ion levels may reliably be used to screen patients undergoing MoM HRA. For patients undergoing MoM THA, a combination of symptom state and blood metal ion levels may be used to determine ALTR risk. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, diagnostic study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal on metal hip resurfacing (MoM-HR) is an alternative to total hip arthroplasty in young and active patients. The purpose was to determine the survivorship of MoM-HR procedures performed in patients aged 45 years and younger assessing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at minimum 5-year follow-up. METHODS All 217 patients equal to or younger than 45 years of age at the time of surgical intervention presenting to our center with MoM-HR between May 2002 and May 2011 were prospectively followed. Baseline demographic data, preoperative and postoperative radiographic measurements, and validated PROMs were obtained (Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and University of California, Los Angeles Activity Score). Survivorship was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, and risk factors for failure were identified using multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS The overall survivorship excluding septic failures was 94.6% and 93.8% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Aseptic loosening of the acetabular component was the most common mode of failure (11/20 cases). Gender, head size, and acetabular abduction angle had no significant effect on survivorship. Significant improvements in PROMs were seen for Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and University of California, Los Angeles Activity Scale (P < .001). CONCLUSION This study indicates that MoM-HR is a suitable option for young individuals, as demonstrated through improved functional scores and low revision rates. The survivorship of HR in the younger than 45 age-group was similar to that of total hip arthroplasty, as well as HR in older patients. Given the proposed benefits of HR, this procedure may be viewed as a viable option in patients aged younger than 45 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, there are no universally accepted guidelines on when to obtain metal artifact reduction sequence magnetic resonance imaging (MARS-MRI) in metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) patients. Our primary aims were to identify which patient and clinical factors are predictive of adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR) and create an algorithm for indicating MARS-MRI in patients with Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) HRA. The secondary aim was to compare our algorithm to existing guidelines on when to perform MARS-MRI in MoM HRA patients. METHODS The study cohort consisted of 182 patients with unilateral ASR HRA from a prospective, multicenter study. Subjects received MARS-MRI at a mean of 7.8 years from surgery, regardless of symptoms. We determined which variables were predictive of ALTR and generated cutoffs for each variable. Finally, we created an algorithm to predict ALTR and indicate MARS-MRI in ASR HRA patients using these cutoffs and compared it to existing guidelines. RESULTS We found high blood cobalt (Co) (odds ratio = 1.070; P = .011) and high blood chromium (Cr) (odds ratio = 1.162; P = .002) to be significant predictors of ALTR presence. Our algorithm using a blood Co cutoff of 1.15 ppb and a Cr cutoff of 1.09 ppb achieved 96.6% sensitivity and 35.3% specificity in predicting ALTR, which outperformed the existing guidelines. CONCLUSION Blood Co and Cr levels are predictive of ALTR in ASR HRA patients. Our algorithm considering blood Co and Cr levels predicts ALTR in ASR HRA patients with higher sensitivity than previously established guidelines.

Abstract
Background and purpose - The initial outcomes following metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty (MoMHA) revision surgery performed for adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD) were poor. Furthermore, robust thresholds for performing ARMD revision are lacking. This article is the second of 2. The first article considered the various investigative modalities used during MoMHA patient surveillance (Matharu et al. 2018a ). The present article aims to provide a clinical update regarding ARMD revision surgery in MoMHA patients (hip resurfacing and large-diameter MoM total hip arthroplasty), with specific focus on the threshold for performing ARMD revision, the surgical strategy, and the outcomes following revision. Results and interpretation - The outcomes following ARMD revision surgery appear to have improved with time for several reasons, among them the introduction of regular patient surveillance and lowering of the threshold for performing revision. Furthermore, registry data suggest that outcomes following ARMD revision are influenced by modifiable factors (type of revision procedure and bearing surface implanted), meaning surgeons could potentially reduce failure rates. However, additional large multi-center studies are needed to develop robust thresholds for performing ARMD revision surgery, which will guide surgeons' treatment of MoMHA patients. The long-term systemic effects of metal ion exposure in patients with these implants must also be investigated, which will help establish whether there are any systemic reasons to recommend revision of MoMHAs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hard-on-hard (HoH) bearing surfaces in total hip arthroplasty (THA) are commonly utilized in younger patients and may decrease mechanical wear compared to polyethylene bearing surfaces. To our knowledge, no study has prospectively compared the 2 most common HoH bearings, ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) and metal-on-metal (MoM) THA. MATERIALS AND METHODS We prospectively enrolled 40 patients to undergo an MoM THA and 42 patients to undergo a CoC THA utilizing the same acetabular component. Patients were followed up for a minimum of 2 years. Comparative outcomes included clinical scores, revision or reoperation for any reason, complication rates, and radiographic outcomes. RESULTS The average follow-up was significantly longer in the CoC cohort (94 vs 74 months; P = .005). The CoC cohort had significantly improved Harris Hip Scores (95 vs 84; P = .0009) and pain scores (42 vs 34; P = .0003). The revision (0% vs 31%; P = .0001), reoperation (7.5% vs 36%; P = .004), and complication rates (10% vs 56%; P = .0001) were significantly lower in the CoC cohort. There were no statistically significant differences in radiographic parameters. CONCLUSION The clinical outcomes in the CoC cohort exceeded the MoM cohort. It is unlikely that another prospective comparative study of HoH THAs will be conducted. Our midterm results support the use of CoC THA as a viable option that may reduce long-term wear in younger patients. Close surveillance of MoM THA patients is recommended considering the higher failure and complication rates reported in this cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Function after revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) in failed metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is variable, but post-operative complication rates are reportedly high. We hypothesized HRA conversion to THA using the direct anterior approach (DAA) would be associated with optimal outcome. METHODS Seventeen MoM-HRAs in 15 patients (seven males, eight females) were revised through the DAA. The mean age was 45 years (28-59 yrs). The most common indications for revision were aseptic loosening of the acetabular component or of the femoral component and femoral neck fracture. In 16 hips, a conversion to a ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) (13 hips) or to a metal-on polyethylene (MOP) (2), or to a large-head MoM (1) THA was done. An isolated femoral revision was done in one hip. RESULTS After 6.7 ± 3 years, no hip had required a re-revision. The Postel-Merle d'Aubigne (PMA) functional score improved from 9 (4-14) to 16 (12-18) (p < 0.001). An intra-operative fracture of the greater trochanter (one hip) and dysesthesia of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (four hips) were reported. Mean serum chromium concentration decreased from 33.2 μg/L (11.8-62 μg/L) pre-operatively to 5.8 μg/L (0.4-35.5 μg/L) post-operatively (p < 0.001), and mean serum cobalt concentration decreased from 35.8 μg/L (6.3-85.5 μg/L) to 4.7 μg/L (0.26-25.7 μg/L) (p = 0.003). CONCLUSION Revision of failed MoM-HRA using the DAA resulted in an acceptable clinical outcome, no specific complication and no further surgery. A consistent decline in serum ion levels may be expected following HRA conversion to THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal-on-metal hip replacement (MoMHR) revision surgery for adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD) has been associated with an increased risk of early complications and reoperation and inferior patient-reported outcome scores compared with non-ARMD revisions. As a result, early revision specifically for ARMD with adoption of a lower surgical threshold has been widely recommended with the goal of improving the subsequent prognosis after ARMD revisions. However, no large cohorts have compared the risk of complications and reoperation after MoMHR revision surgery for ARMD (an unanticipated revision indication) with those after non-ARMD revisions (which represent conventional modes of arthroplasty revision). QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Does the risk of intraoperative complications differ between MoMHRs revised for ARMD compared with non-ARMD indications? (2) Do mortality rates differ after MoMHRs revised for ARMD compared with non-ARMD indications? (3) Do rerevision rates differ after MoMHRs revised for ARMD compared with non-ARMD indications? (4) How do implant survival rates differ after MoMHR revision when performed for specific non-ARMD indications compared with ARMD? METHODS This retrospective observational study involved all patients undergoing MoMHR from the National Joint Registry (NJR) for England and Wales subsequently revised for any indication between 2008 and 2014. The NJR achieves high levels of patient consent (93%) and linked procedures (ability to link serial procedures performed on the same patient and hip; 95%). Furthermore, recent validation studies have demonstrated that when revision procedures have been captured within the NJR, the data completion and accuracy were excellent. Revisions for ARMD and non-ARMD indications were matched one to one for multiple potential confounding factors using propensity scores. The propensity score summarizes the many patient and surgical factors that were used in the matching process (including sex, age, type of primary arthroplasty, time to revision surgery, and details about the revision procedure performed such as the approach, specific components revised, femoral head size, bearing surface, and use of bone graft) using one single score for each revised hip. The patient and surgical factors within the ARMD and non-ARMD groups subsequently became much more balanced once the groups had been matched based on the propensity scores. The matched cohort included 2576 MoMHR revisions with each study group including 1288 revisions (mean followup of 3 years for both groups; range, 1-7 years). Intraoperative complications, mortality, and rerevision surgery were compared between matched groups using univariable regression analyses. Implant survival rates in the non-ARMD group were calculated for each specific revision indication with each individual non-ARMD indication subsequently compared with the implant survival rate in the ARMD group using Cox regression analyses. RESULTS There was no difference between the ARMD and non-ARMD MoMHR revisions in terms of intraoperative complications (odds ratio, 0.97; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.59-1.59; p = 0.900). Mortality rates were lower after ARMD revision compared with non-ARMD revision (hazard ratio [HR], 0.43; CI, 0.21-0.87; p = 0.019); however, there was no difference when revisions performed for infection were excluded from the non-ARMD indication group (HR, 0.69; CI, 0.35-1.37; p = 0.287). Rerevision rates were lower after ARMD revision compared with non-ARMD revision (HR, 0.52; CI, 0.36-0.75; p < 0.001); this difference persisted even after removing revisions performed for infection (HR, 0.59; CI, 0.40-0.89; p = 0.011). Revisions for infection (5-year survivorship = 81%; CI, 55%-93%; p = 0.003) and dislocation/subluxation (5-year survivorship = 82%; CI, 69%-90%; p < 0.001) had the lowest implant survival rates when compared with revisions for ARMD (5-year survivorship = 94%; CI, 92%-96%). CONCLUSIONS Contrary to previous observations, MoMHRs revised for ARMD have approximately half the risk of rerevision compared with non-ARMD revisions. We suspect worldwide regulatory authorities have positively influenced rerevision rates after ARMD revision by recommending that surgeons exercise a lower revision threshold and that such revisions are now being performed at an earlier stage. The high risk of rerevision after MoMHR revision for infection and dislocation is concerning. Infected MoMHR revisions were responsible for the increased mortality risk observed after non-ARMD revision, which parallels findings in non-MoMHR revisions for infection.

Abstract
Metal wear particles play a major role in periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening in patients with total joint arthroplasty. The ability to induce osteolysis depends on the size, shape, dose, and type of the particles. However, much remains unknown regarding which type of metal particles are most reactive. We compared the inflammatory response and bone loss induced by two metal wear particles, cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) and titanium (Ti), in a mouse calvaria model of osteolysis. We found that CoCrMo particles caused markedly greater bone resorption than Ti particles, according to three-dimensional images of the calvariae. CoCrMo particles activated more functional osteoclasts by significantly increasing the expression of the osteoclast-specific gene tartrate-specific acid phosphatase (Trap), calcitonin receptor (Ctr), and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (Nfatc1), and induced a greater increase in the ratio of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) than Ti particles. CoCrMo particles also induced a stronger local inflammatory response, markedly increasing the expression and secretion of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β compared with Ti particles. Therefore, CoCrMo particles induced a more severe inflammatory response and greater osteolysis than Ti particles in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Failed total hip arthroplasty caused by mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC) has serious consequences such as adverse local tissue reaction. Revision is currently indicated for significant hip pain, stiffness, and dysfunction; hip instability; progressive bone loss; and soft tissue destruction. Outcomes of this revision surgery are not yet completely understood. METHODS We examined the surgical outcomes at a minimum of 6 months (average, 25; range, 7-68 months) in a cohort of 27 consecutive patients who underwent revision total hip arthroplasty for MACC associated with a single implant vendor and taper type. RESULTS Major orthopedic complications occurred in 7 of 27 patients (25.9%), each after the original revision surgery. Five additional major complications occurred in subsequent surgeries. Postoperative hip dislocation occurred in 6 of 27 (22.2%), deep infection occurred in 3 of 27 (11.1%), and aseptic acetabular loosening, seroma requiring irrigation and debridement, pulmonary embolism, periprosthetic fracture, and reintubation each occurred in 1 of 27 (3.7%). Harris hip scores improved significantly with surgery (P = .0002), but overall, scores were lower for those who had major complications (70.9 vs 89.2), and only 20 of 27 patients (74.1%) had good or excellent outcomes. CONCLUSION Symptomatic MACC is a potentially devastating diagnosis, because of decreased soft tissue and bone viability associated with adverse local tissue reaction. This leads to a high early major complication rate.

Abstract
The poor results obtained in young patients when using a conventional prosthesis led to the resurgence of hip resurfacing to find less invasive implants for the bone. Young patients present a demand for additional activity, which makes them a serious challenge for the survival of implants. In addition, new information technologies contribute decisively to the preference for non-cemented prostheses. Maintaining quality of life, preserving the bone and soft tissues, as well as achieving a very stable implant, are the goals of every hip orthopaedic surgeon for these patients. The results in research point to the use of smaller prostheses, which use the metaphyseal zone more and less the diaphyseal zone, and hence the large number of the abovementioned short stem prostheses. Both models are principally indicated in the young adult. Their revision should be a more simple operation, but this is only true for hip resurfacing, not for short stems.

Abstract
Aims To determine the outcomes following revision surgery of metal-on-metal
hip arthroplasties (MoMHA) performed for adverse reactions to metal
debris (ARMD), and to identify factors predictive of re-revision. Patients and Methods We performed a retrospective observational study using National
Joint Registry (NJR) data on 2535 MoMHAs undergoing revision surgery
for ARMD between 2008 and 2014. The outcomes studied following revision were
intra-operative complications, mortality and re-revision surgery.
Predictors of re-revision were identified using competing-risk regression
modelling. Results Intra-operative complications occurred in 40 revisions (1.6%).
The cumulative five-year patient survival rate was 95.9% (95% confidence
intervals (CI) 92.3 to 97.8). Re-revision surgery was performed
in 192 hips (7.6%). The cumulative five-year implant survival rate
was 89.5% (95% CI 87.3 to 91.3). Predictors of re-revision were
high body mass index at revision (subhazard ratio (SHR) 1.06 per
kg/m2 increase, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.09), modular component
only revisions (head and liner with or without taper adapter; SHR
2.01, 95% CI 1.19 to 3.38), ceramic-on-ceramic revision bearings
(SHR 1.86, 95% CI 1.23 to 2.80), and acetabular bone grafting (SHR
2.10, 95% CI 1.43 to 3.07). These four factors remained predictive
of re-revision when the missing data were imputed. Conclusion The short-term risk of re-revision following MoMHA revision surgery
performed for ARMD was comparable with that reported in the NJR
following all-cause non-MoMHA revision surgery. However, the factors
predictive of re-revision included those which could be modified
by the surgeon, suggesting that rates of failure following ARMD revision
may be reduced further. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2017;99-B:1020–7.

Abstract
Several reports have shown good long-term results with the Birmingham hip resurfacing (BHR) arthroplasty, but little is known about the results in Asian countries where there is a high prevalence of osteonecrosis and developmental dysplasia of the hip, and many females with small femoral head sizes. Therefore, we retrospectively evaluated the long-term clinical results of the BHR in 112 Japanese patients (53 males and 59 females-130 hips) with an average age of 52 years. Implant survivorship was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method with the endpoint being revision for any reason. Factors such as sex, femoral component size, and type of hip disease were analyzed as predictors of implant survivorship. With a median follow-up of 12 years, six cases were revised (two for femoral component aseptic loosening, two for infection, one for cup aseptic loosening, and one for femoral neck fracture), and the overall survival rate was 96.5% (95% CI 90.9-98.7) at 10 years and 93.6% (95% CI 83.4-97.7) at 15 years. When septic revisions were excluded, the implant survival rate was 98.2% (95% CI 92.9-99.6) at 10 years and 95.3% (95% CI 83.9-98.7) at 15 years. Sex, femoral component size, and type of hip disease were not predictors of implant survivorship. In conclusion, good clinical results were obtained with the BHR at 10- and 15-year follow-up in Japanese patients who have different stature and types of hip diseases as compared with patients in Western countries.

Abstract
Background and purpose - There has been increasing alarm regarding metal-on-metal (MoM) joint replacements leading to elevated levels of metal ions and adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMDs). There is little information available concerning the prevalence of and risk factors for these adverse reactions, except with MoM hip joint replacements. We determined the levels of metal ions in blood and the rate of revision due to ARMDs in patients treated with MoM hinge total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients and methods - 22 patients with TKAs and MoM hinge connecting mechanisms were studied for whole-blood chromium and cobalt levels at 6 months, 1 year, and/or ≥2 years after surgery. Possible ARMDs were investigated by MRI. 12 patients with TKAs and metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) connecting mechanisms served as controls. Results - The cobalt levels were over 5 ppb in 19 of the 22 patients in the MoM group and in 1 of the 12 patients in the MoP group. The chromium levels were over 5 ppb in 11 of the 22 patients in the MoM group and in none of the 12 patients in the MoP group. Pseudotumors were operated in 4 of the 22 patients in the MoM group and in none of the patients in the MoP group. Interpretation - Our results clearly show that the MoM hinge TKA carries a high risk of increased levels of systemic metal ions and also local ARMD, leading to complicated knee revisions. We therefore discourage the use of MoM hinge TKA.
