[PMID: 38342724 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2024.01.133] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/13/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Successful total hip arthroplasty relies on accurate preoperative planning. However, the conventional preoperative planning, a two-dimensional method using X-ray template, has shown poor reliability of predicting component size. To our knowledge, artificial intelligence technology assisted three-dimensional preoperative planning is promising to improve the accuracy of preoperative planning but there is a dearth of clinical evidence. Therefore, in this study we compared the prediction accuracy of these two maneuvers. METHODS We conducted a prospective study consisting of 117 consecutive patients who underwent a primary cementless total hip arthroplasty to compare the prediction accuracy of these two methods. The two-dimensional and artificial intelligence assisted three-dimensional planning results of the same patient were compared with the definitive implant size respectively. RESULTS The prediction accuracy of artificial intelligence assisted three-dimensional planning for cup and the stem sizes were 66.67% (78/117) and 65.81% (77/117), two-dimensional planning was 30.77% (36/117) and 37.61% (44/117) (p < 0.05). There were poor prediction results of two-dimensional planning in patients with hip dysplasia (p = 0.004, OR = 7.143) and excessive femoral anteversion (p = 0.012, OR = 1.052), meanwhile the failure risk of stem side two-dimensional planning increased as patients got older (p = 0.003, OR = 1.118). The accuracy of artificial intelligence assisted three-dimensional planning cannot be affected by above factors. CONCLUSIONS We confirmed that artificial intelligence assisted three-dimensional preoperative planning showed higher accuracy and stability than two-dimensional preoperative planning in primary cementless total hip arthroplasty. We believe artificial intelligence assisted three-dimensional preoperative planning technology provides surgeons a new reliable choice and offers advantages whether in simple or complicated cases.

Hip Pelvis 2024; 36:26-36. [PMID: 38420736 DOI: 10.5371/hp.2024.36.1.26] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a frequently performed procedure; the objective is restoration of native hip biomechanics and achieving functional range of motion (ROM) through precise positioning of the prosthetic components. Advanced three-dimensional (3D) imaging and computed tomography (CT)-based navigation are valuable tools in both the preoperative planning and intraoperative execution. The aim of this study is to provide a thorough overview on the applications of CT scans in both the preoperative and intraoperative settings of primary THA. Preoperative planning using CT-based 3D imaging enables greater accuracy in prediction of implant sizes, leading to enhancement of surgical workflow with optimization of implant inventory. Surgeons can perform a more thorough assessment of posterior and anterior acetabular wall coverage, acetabular osteophytes, anatomical landmarks, and thus achieve more functional implant positioning. Intraoperative CT-based navigation can facilitate precise execution of the preoperative plan, to attain optimal positioning of the prosthetic components to avoid impingement. Medial reaming can be minimized preserving native bone stock, which can enable restoration of femoral, acetabular, and combined offsets. In addition, it is associated with greater accuracy in leg length adjustment, a critical factor in patients' postoperative satisfaction. Despite the higher costs and radiation exposure, which currently limits its widespread adoption, it offers many benefits, and the increasing interest in robotic surgery has facilitated its integration into routine practice. Conducting additional research on ultra-low-dose CT scans and examining the potential for translation of 3D imaging into improved clinical outcomes will be necessary to warrant its expanded application.

Comparative Study for Postoperative Initial Fixation Patterns of Two Different Types of Cementless Short Stem Using Three-Dimensional Templating Software. Clin Orthop Surg 2024; 16:23-33. [PMID: 38304207 PMCID: PMC10825261 DOI: 10.4055/cios23100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Background While cementless short stems have become popular in total hip arthroplasty (THA), Metha is a relatively recent development that differs from other short stems in its initial fixation concept of partial collum-sparing metaphyseal anchorage. The purpose of this study was to quantify the contact state between Metha and the femur. Additionally, we investigated the difference in contact points between Meta and Fitmore, which is one of the more popular curved short stems. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of 42 hips that underwent THA using Metha and 41 hips using Fitmore. Stem-to-femur contact was evaluated by density mapping using a three-dimensional digital template system to quantify the contact condition according to the modified Gruen zone. The criterion for the stem-to-bone contact boundary was defined as a computed tomography value of 543 Hounsfield. Results Quantitative evaluation of Metha according to the modified Gruen zones showed the ratio of surface area with high cortical contact in each zone. The results were 4.6% ± 5.7% in zone 1, 0.9% ± 2.3% in zone 2, 19.1% ± 12.9% in zone 3, 1.4% ± 3.2% in zone 5, 29.6% ± 16.4% in zone 6, and 25.1% ± 17.7% in zones 7. Evaluation of Fitmore for the same zones was as follows: 1.6% ± 2.4%, 18.5% ± 16.9%, 20.8% ± 17.4%, 12.7% ± 12.8%, 3.7% ± 5.8%, and 13.3% ± 10.3%. Comparing the two groups, the contact area was significantly greater for Metha in zones 1, 6 and 7 and Fitmore in zones 2 and 5 (p < 0.05). Conclusions It is possible for Metha to achieve metaphyseal anchoring by contacting the cortical bone at the proximal femur, thus avoiding proximal offloading. To the best of our knowledge, no previous studies have quantitatively reported stem-to-cortical bone contact conditions in curved short stems.

[PMID: 38046454 PMCID: PMC10686848 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2023.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background A successful clinical outcome for total hip arthroplasty (THA) depends on accurate sizing and positioning of the implants. Using three-dimensional (3-D) pre-operative planning with a computerized tomography (CT) scan has many potential advantages over conventional 2-D planning using radiographs, including potentially more accurate assessments of the size and anteversion of the acetabulum, as well as lateral femoral offset. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of 3-D to 2-D templating with respect to acetabular and femoral size, as well as lateral femoral offset. Methods Pre-operative templating data was collected prospectively from a consecutive series of 290 primary THAs (acetabulum on all, femoral component on 255 of the cases using one specific stem). All cases were initially templated on a digital imaging picture archiving and communication (PACS) system with calibrated images to estimate the acetabular size, femoral size, and lateral femoral offset. The 3-D templating was then performed with software based on a CT scan, and the results were compared to what was surgically implanted. Results The 3-D templating for the acetabulum was accurate 99.7% of the time based on the final implanted component. The 2-D templating for the acetabulum was accurate 39% of the time, with 46% of cases templating smaller and 15% templating larger. The 3-D templating of the femoral component was accurate 63% of the time, and within one size of final implant in 96% of cases. The 2-D templating of the femoral component was accurate 53% of the time and within one size of final implant in 94% of cases. The 2-D templated femoral offset was accurate 87% of the time and was changed in 13% of cases after 3-D templating. Conclusion The CT-based 3-D preoperative planning was superior to 2-D planning for THA with respect to acetabular size, femoral size, and lateral femoral offset. Precise acetabular component sizing conserves bone and allows for a more predictable press fit, while facilitating efficient inventory management. Lateral femoral offset is often difficult to measure on 2-D images, and 3-D templating consistently allows for accurate offset restoration, which is important for normal hip function and stability.

Early outcomes of total hip arthroplasty using point-of-care manufactured patient-specific instruments: a single university hospital's initial experience. BMC Surg 2023; 23:369. [PMID: 38066450 PMCID: PMC10704642 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-023-02281-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of 3D-printed Patient-Specific Instruments (PSI) has been investigated to enhance the postoperative functional results in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and has been recognized as an innovative approach for the optimal alignment of hip implant components. Point-of-care production is gradually becoming the norm for PSI manufacturing. The purpose of this article is to assess the accuracy and safety of PSI for total hip arthroplasty performed at the point-of-care in Vietnam. METHODS 34 THA cases were assessed in this prospective study. A template for the size and orientation of the implant and the design of the PSI was generated using data from preoperative 3D computed tomography (CT) scanning of the lower limb. The principal surgeon determined the implants' position and PSI design directly using the software. The PSI is then produced using a 3D-compatible resin printer in our manufacturing hospital. The PSI, consisting of an acetabulum and a femoral component placed press-fit on the bony surface, guided surgeons to precisely ream the acetabulum and cut the femoral neck according to the pre-planned plane. Postoperative CT scanning was obtained and superimposed onto the 3D model of the implant to evaluate the accuracy of the procedure by comparing the orientation values of the cup and the alignment of the stem between the planned and the actual results. Intra- and postoperative clinical parameters of surgery, including surgical time, intra-operative blood loss, complications, and the first ambulation, were also recorded to evaluate the safety of the surgery. RESULTS The preparation for PSI required an average of 3 days. 94% of cup size and 91% of stem size were correctly selected. The mean values of postoperative inclination and anteversion were 44.2° ± 4.1° and 19.2° ± 5.6°, respectively. 64.7% of cases deviated from planned within the ± 50 range and 94.1% within the ± 10° range. There was no significant statistical difference between the planned and the achieved values of stem anteversion, osteotomy height, and leg length discrepancy (p > 0.05). The average surgical time was 82.5° ± 10.8 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was estimated at 317.7° ± 57.6 ml. 64.7% of patients could walk on the day of surgery. There were no complications reported. CONCLUSIONS The point-of-care manufactured PSI is a useful solution for improving the accuracy of total hip arthroplasty surgery, especially in restoring implant orientation and reducing leg length discrepancy. However, long-term clinical follow-up evaluation is needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of this approach.

Arthroplast Today 2023; 24:101260. [PMID: 38023640 PMCID: PMC10652126 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2023.101260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background An important aspect of preoperative planning for total hip arthroplasty is templating. Although two-dimensional (2D) templating remains the gold standard, computerized tomography (CT)-based three-dimensional (3D) templating is a novel preoperative planning technique. This study aims to compare the accuracy of a 2D and 3D plan using an anterior approach for the placement of the same uncemented prosthesis. Methods Two consecutive cohorts of 100 patients each were retrospectively analyzed. We analyzed the accuracy of the size of the implant (stem, cup, head), the length of head, and offset. As a secondary criterion, we analyzed the rates of stems with more than 3° of varus, fracture, and/or subsidence at 3 months postoperatively. Results Within the exact size, the accuracy of the stem and cup size with the 2D plan was 69% and 56%, respectively. With the 3D plan accuracy being 88% (P = .0046) and 96% (P < .0001), respectively. Regarding size and length of the implant head, accuracy was 86% and 82% with the 2D plan and 100% (P < .0001) and 94% (P = .016), respectively, with the 3D plan. The offset of the implants increased beyond 3 mm in 23% of patients in the 2D group and in 5% of patients in the 3D group (P = .0003). The rate of varus stems was 10% in the 2D group and 2% in the 3D group (P = .03). Two fractures and one case of subsidence occurred in the 2D group. None were identified in the 3D cohort. Conclusions A CT-based 3D plan is more accurate for implant size selection, allows better prosthetic offset, and reduces the rate of varus stems.

Abstract
Three-dimensional planning of hip arthroplasty is associated with better visualisation of anatomical landmarks and enhanced mapping for preoperative implant sizing, which can lead to a decrease in surgical time and complications. Despite the advantages of hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA), it is considered a technically challenging procedure and associated with inaccurate implant placement. This study aimed to examine the validity, reliability, and usability of preoperative 3D Hip Planner software for HRA. Fifty random cases of various hip osteoarthritis severity were planned twice by two junior trainees using the 3D Hip Planner within a one-month interval. Outcome measures included femoral/cup implant size, stem-shaft angle, and cup inclination angle, and were assessed by comparing outcomes from 2D and 3D planning. An adapted unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) survey was used for software usability. Bland-Altman plots between 3D and 2D planning for stem-shaft and inclination angles showed mean differences of 0.7 and -0.6, respectively (r = 0.93, p < 0.001). Stem-shaft and inclination angles showed inter-rater reliability biases of around -2° and 3°, respectively. Chi-square and Pearson's correlation for femoral implant size showed a significant association between the two assessors (r = 0.91, p < 0.001). The 3D test-retest coefficient of repeatability for stem-shaft and inclination angles were around ±2° and ±3°, respectively, with a strong significant association for femoral implant size (r = 0.98, p < 0.001). Survey analyses showed that 70-90% agreed that 3D planning improved expectancy in four domains. 3D hip planner appears to be valid and reliable in preoperative HRA and shows significant potential in optimising the quality and accuracy of surgical planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inaccurately scaled radiographs for total hip arthroplasty (THA) templating are a source of error not recognizable to the surgeon and may lead to inaccurate reconstruction and thus revision surgery or litigation. Planning based on computed tomography (CT) scans is more accurate but associated with higher radiation exposure. The aim of this study was (1) to retrospectively assess the scaling deviation of pelvic radiographs; (2) to prospectively assess the feasibility and the radiation dose of THA templating on radiograph-like images reconstructed from a tin-filtered ultra-low-dose CT dataset. METHODS 120 consecutive patients were retrospectively analyzed to assess the magnification error of our current THA templates. 27 consecutive patients were prospectively enrolled and a radiographic work-up in the supine position including a new tin-filtered ultra-low-dose CT scan protocol was obtained. THA was templated on both images. Radiation dose was calculated. RESULTS Scaling deviations between preoperative radiographs and CT of ≥ 5% were seen in 25% of the 120 retrospectively analyzed patients. Between the two templates trochanter tip distance differed significantly (Δ2.4 mm, 0-7 mm, p = 0.035)), predicted femoral shaft size/cup size was the same in 45%/41%. The radiation dose of the CT (0.58 mSv, range 0.53-0.64) was remarkably low. CONCLUSION Scaling deviations of pelvic radiographs for templating THA may lead to planning errors of ≥ 3 mm in 25% and ≥ 6 mm in 2% of the patients. 2-D templating on radiograph-like images based on tin-filtered ultra-low-dose CT eliminates this source of error without increased radiation dose. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective and prospective comparative study, Level III.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e34113. [PMID: 37352023 PMCID: PMC10289585 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000034113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Preoperative planning with computed tomography (CT)-based 3-dimensiona (3D) templating has been achieved precise placement of hip components. This study investigated the role of the software (3-dimensional preoperative planning for primary total hip arthroplasty [THA] based on artificial intelligence technology, artificial intelligence hip [AIHIP]) for surgeons with different experience levels in primary THA. In this retrospective cohort study, we included patients, who had undergone THA with the help of the AIHIP, and matched to patients, who had undergone THA without the help of the AIHIP, by age and the doctor who operated on them. The subjects were divided into 4 groups, senior surgeon (Chief of Surgery) with AIHIP group, senior surgeon without AIHIP group, junior surgeon (Associate Chief of Surgery) with AIHIP group and junior surgeon without AIHIP group. The general data, imaging index, clinical outcomes and accuracy of stem size prediction and cup size prediction were retrospectively documented for all patients. There was a significant difference in discrepancy in leg length (P = .010), neck-shaft angle (P = .025) and femoral offset (P = .031) between the healthy side and the affected side, operation duration (P < .001), decrease in hemoglobin (Hb) per 24 hours (P = .046), intraoperative radiation exposure frequency (P < .050) and postoperative complications (overall P = .035) among the patients in junior surgeon group. No significant differences were found between senior surgeon groups with respect to discrepancy in leg length (P = .793), neck-shaft angle (P = .088)and femoral offset (P = .946) between the healthy side and the affected side, operation duration (P = .085), decrease in Hb per 24 hours (P = .952), intraoperative radiation exposure frequency (P = .094) and postoperative complications (overall P = .378). The stem sizes of 95% were accurately estimated to be within 1 stem size, and 97% of the cup size estimates were accurate to within 1 cup size in senior surgeon group with AIHIP. A total of 87% stem sizes were accurately estimated to be within 1 stem size, and 85% cup sizes were accurate to within 1 cup size in junior surgeon group with AIHIP. In conclusion, our study suggests that an AI-based preoperative 3D planning system for THA is a valuable adjunctive tool for junior doctor and should routinely be performed preoperatively.

Moralidou M, Di Laura A, Henckel J, Hart AJ. Can version of the proximal femur be used for CT planning uncemented femoral stems? Med Eng Phys 2023; 116:103985. [PMID: 37230697 DOI: 10.1016/j.medengphy.2023.103985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Three-Dimensional Computed Tomography (3D-CT) planning can predict the prosthetic femoral size in uncemented primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). Correct sizing usually results in optimal varus/valgus femoral alignment; however, its effect on the Prosthetic Femoral Version (PFV) is poorly understood. Most 3D-CT planning systems use Native Femoral Version (NFV) to plan PFV. We aimed to assess the relationship between PFV and NFV in primary uncemented THA using 3D-CT analysis. Pre- and post-operative CT data was retrospectively collected from 73 patients (81 hips) undergoing primary uncemented THA with a straight-tapered stem. 3D-CT models were used to measure PFV and NFV. The clinical outcomes were evaluated. The discrepancy between PFV and NFV was low (<5°) in 43%, moderate (5-10°) in 40%, high (10-15°) in 11% and very high (>15°) in 6% of the cases. We found that NFV is not a useable guide for planning PFV. The 95% limits of agreement were both high at 17° and 15°, respectively. Satisfactory clinical outcomes were recorded. The discrepancy was large enough to recommend against the use of NFV for planning PFV when using straight-tapered uncemented stems. Further work should focus on the internal bony anatomy and the influence of stem design when planning uncemented femoral stems.

Anterior superior iliac spine is not always reliable as a pelvic reference axis. -3D study of pelvic axis. J Orthop Sci 2023; 28:677-682. [PMID: 35153123 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2022.01.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Revised: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of the axis connecting both anterior superior iliac spines (ASIS axis) as the absolute pelvic axis. No study has ever verified the accuracy of ASIS axis particularly on the AP pelvic radiograph, which cannot be specified on it. METHODS Sixty patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty and fifty patients with femoral neck fracture were recruited as subjects without hip deformities and their CT scan data were collected. We defined the line through both center of femoral heads as absolute reference axis of pelvis three-dimensionally. On the coronal plane, the errors between the femoral head axis and the axes through six pelvic landmarks in total, including ASIS were analyzed. On the axial plane, the errors of the lines through four landmarks were analyzed in the same way. Finally, on the coronal images, the mediolateral diameter of the obturator foramen and the mediolateral distance between the midline of the sacrum and the pelvic cavity were measured to evaluate bilateral symmetry of the pelvis. RESULTS The errors tended to be smaller as the axes were closer to the femoral head axis (axes connecting bilateral superior aspects of the acetabulum and the teardrops) and the ASIS axis errors were moderate. The obturator foramen based on the ASIS axis was more asymmetrical than the femoral head axis. CONCLUSION Adjusting the pelvic tilt and rotation, surgeons should not always rely on the ASIS and refer to appropriate, close to the hip joint references in each case.

[PMID: 36764404 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.01.067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the relationship between acetabular width, three-dimensional (3D) simulation, and surgical results in total hip arthroplasty patients who have developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHODS This retrospective study included 216 DDH cases. Inner and outer acetabular width (OAW) was measured at the plane passing through the center of acetabular fossa. 3D simulation and 2D standard templating were performed. The actual cup size and the use of augments during surgery were recorded. Association among the indices and their distribution in different types of DDH were analyzed. RESULTS A difference of 13 to 14 millimeters (mm) was found between the inner acetabular width and actual cup size used in type II, III, and IV cases, while the difference was 0.2 to 3.6 mm for OAW. The accuracy of 2D templating and 3D simulation in predicting cup size was comparable in Crowe type I (86.5 versus 76%, P = .075), type II (72.7 versus 51.5%, P = .127), and type III (93.3 versus 66.7%, P = .169). The 3D simulation was significantly more accurate in Crowe type IV (89.1% versus 60.9%, P = .001). Augments and bone grafts were significantly more commonly used in type II (25%) than in the other types (0 to 6.5%). CONCLUSION OAW more accurately predicted actual cup size than inner acetabular width. The supero-lateral acetabular bone defects in type II cases require additional attention. Compared with 2D templating, 3D simulation is more accurate in predicting actual cup size in dysplastic hips with severe deformity and may be recommended in these selected cases, especially for Crowe IV patients.

Does acetabular robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty with femoral navigation improve clinical outcomes at 1-year post-operative? A case-matched propensity score study comparing 98 robotic-assisted versus 98 manual implantation hip arthroplasties. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2023; 109:103477. [PMID: 36375721 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2022.103477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2021] [Revised: 08/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the optimization of implant positioning, the clinical benefit of the use of robotic assistance during THA remains uncertain. In this case-control study (robotic versus manual technique) we made a retrospective short-term comparison of: (1) the functional results, (2) the complications, (3) and the influence of radiological symmetrization of the hips on the functional result. HYPOTHESIS The use of a robotic arm improved the functional results of a THA. MATERIALS AND METHOD A retrospective case-control study was performed, including patients with unilateral hip osteoarthritis who underwent a robotic arm-assisted THA (THA-R). The controls (THA-C) were matched according to age, sex, body mass index and surgical approach. The Harris (HHS), Oxford (OHS) and Forgotten Joint (FJS) scores were collected preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. At each review, complications were categorized into minor events, revision surgery with and without implant change. Radiographic analysis was performed on weight-bearing images of the pelvis 3 months postoperatively. The objective of the surgery was symmetrization of the THA in the contralateral healthy hip. For each measured parameter of the hip joint center of rotation (COR), global offset (GO) and articular leg length discrepancy (aLLD), the difference between the two sides corresponding to the delta symmetrization was compared. RESULTS Ninety-eight patients were included in the THA-R group and matched to 98 controls in the THA-C group. At 1 year postoperatively, the FJS and OHS scores were statistically higher in the THA-R group, respectively 82.1±22.3 [8.3; 100] and 40.8±8.8 [6; 48] vs. 71.2±27.8 [0; 100] and 38.1±9.7 [12; 48] in the THA-C group (p=0.004 and p=0.043). There was no difference in HHS (THA-R: 85.9±15.8 [31; 100] vs. THA-C: 85.8±13.3 [49-100] (p=0.962)). The implant revision rate at 1 year was significantly higher in the THA-C group (0% vs. 5.1% (p=0.025)). There was no difference in the reoperation without component exchange despite 3 dislocations (3.1%) in the THA-R group (5 (5.1%) vs. 9 (9.2%) (p=0.273)). The rate of abarticular pathologies (ilio-psoas irritation and greater trochanteric bursitis) was higher in the THA-C group (10 (10.8%) vs. 2 (2%) (p=0.016). Robotic acetabular assistance allowed a significantly better restitution of the horizontal position (THA-R: 1mm±4.8 [-11.7; 12.6] vs. THA-C: 4.1mm±7 [-29.6; 28] (p=0.0005)) and vertical COR (THA-R: 0.5mm±3.1 [-6; 8.3] vs. THA-C: 2mm±4.1 [-6; 14.6] (p=0.0068)). Navigated assistance of the femur did not significantly optimize the restitution of the Global Offset (THA-R: +2mm±6.4 [-16.4; 27.6] vs. THA-C: +0.5mm±7 .7 [-34; 30.2] (p=0.145)), or lower limb length (THA-R: +1.1mm±5 [-8.2; 13.5] vs. THA-C: +0.3mm±6 [-14.1; 22.5] (p=0.344). The FJS was statistically correlated with the restoration of the symmetry of the COR and the aLLD. A post-hoc power analysis confirmed sufficient potency (1-β=0.85). CONCLUSION Robotic acetabular assistance combined with femoral navigation improves clinical outcomes of THAs with fewer short-term complications. The precision of the positioning of the implants, optimized by the computer-assisted surgery system, is correlated with the missed joint score. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective case-control study.

Abstract
Femoral neck osteotomy creates a critical anatomical landmark for surgeons performing primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA); it affects the final height and position of the femoral component. Patient Specific Instrumentation (PSI) has been developed to guide the osteotomy. We aimed to assess the accuracy of a patient-specific (PS) femoral osteotomy guide in primary THA using three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) analysis. We included pre- and post-operative CT data of 103 THAs. All patients underwent 3D planning to define the optimal femoral neck osteotomy level. Our primary objective was to quantify the discrepancy between the achieved and planned osteotomy level; our secondary objective was to evaluate the clinical outcome. The median (Interquartile Range—IQR) discrepancy between the achieved and planned osteotomy level was 0.3 mm (−1 mm to 2 mm). We found a strong positive correlation between the planned and achieved osteotomy level (R2 = 0.9, p < 0.001). A satisfactory clinical outcome was recorded. Our findings suggest that surgeons can use 3D-printed PS guides to achieve a femoral neck osteotomy with a high level of accuracy to the plan.

[PMID: 35524643 PMCID: PMC9163964 DOI: 10.1111/os.13298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Revised: 04/07/2022] [Accepted: 04/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to compare the accuracy of CT-based preoperative planning with that of acetate templating in predicting implant size, neck length, and neck cut length, and to evaluate the reproducibility of the two methods. METHODS This prospective study was conducted between August 2020 and March 2021. Patients who underwent elective primary total hip arthroplasty by a single surgeon were assessed for eligibility. The included patients underwent both acetate templating and CT-based planning by two observers after the operation. Each observer conducted both acetate templating and CT-based planning twice for each case. The outcome measures included the following: (1) the accuracy of surgical planning in predicting implant size, calcar length, and neck length, which was defined as the difference between the planned size and length and the actual size and length; (2) reproducibility of the two planning techniques, which were assessed by inter-observer and intra-observer reliability analysis; (3) the influence of potential confounding factors on planning accuracy, which was evaluated using generalized estimating equations. RESULTS A total of 57 cases were included in the study. CT-based planning was more accurate than acetate templating for predicting cup size (93% vs 79%, p < 0.001) and stem size (93% vs 75%, p < 0.001). When assessed by mean absolute difference, the comparison between acetate templating and CT-based planning was 4.28 mm vs 3.74 mm (p = 0.122) in predicting neck length and 3.05 mm vs 2.93 mm (p = 0.731) in predicting neck cut length. In the inter-observer reliability analysis, an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of 0.790 was achieved for predicting cup size, and an ICC of 0.966 was achieved for predicting stem size using CT-based planning. In terms of intra-observer reliability, Observer 1 achieved an ICC of 0.803 for predicting cup size and 0.965 for predicting stem size in CT-based planning. Observer 2 achieved ICC values of 0.727 and 0.959 for predicting cup and stem sizes, respectively. The average planning time was 6.48 ± 1.55 min for CT-based planning and 6.12 ± 1.40 min for acetate templating (p = 0.015). CONCLUSION The CT-based planning system is more accurate than acetate templating for predicting implant size and has good reproducibility in total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Objective We aimed to investigate whether there is a change in the postoperative lateral and vertical femoral offset (FO) in patients who underwent bipolar straight stem hemiarthroplasty (SSHA) and calcar stem hemiarthroplasty (CRHA) and whether this change makes a difference in the comparison of both groups. Material and methods This study included 109 patients who met these criteria. Patients are divided into two groups according to treatment methods. There were 58 patients (group 1) who underwent SSHA due to intracapsular (AO type 31-B neck and 31-C head fracture) femur fracture, and there were 51 patients (group 2) who underwent CRHA due to extracapsular (AO type 31-A intertrochanteric) femur fracture. We analyzed femoral vertical and lateral femoral offset, Wiberg angle, and head-neck angle difference in both groups. Results The median age was significantly higher in the CRHA group (p=0.042). The Harris hip score (HHS) was significantly higher in the SSHA group (p=0.023). The femoral offset difference was 5 mm in the SSHA group, while it was significantly lower (-6 mm) in the CRHA group (p<0.001). The Wiberg angle difference did not differ significantly between patient groups (p=0.214). The limb length difference was found to be similar in both surgical groups (p=0.483). Conclusions The study results show that there was no negative correlation between clinical and radiological outcomes in the SSHA group, whereas there was a negative correlation between clinical and radiological outcomes in the CRHA group. It is very difficult to control vertical and lateral offset reconstruction, especially in extracapsular hip fractures reconstructed by hemiarthroplasty. Deficiencies in lateral and vertical stabilization restoration may be associated with poor clinical outcomes in CRHA patients. Orthopedic surgeries should be performed carefully when restoring leg length and femoral offset, especially calcar replacement hemiarthroplasties.

Abstract
Background Leg length discrepancy is one of the most common problems after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of image-free navigation in intraoperative leg length change (LLC) using evaluations from anteroposterior radiographs (2D measurement) and 3D bone models using CT data (3D measurement). Methods One hundred THAs with cementless cups and stems were performed using an image-free navigation system in our hospital. We evaluated the accuracy of image-free navigation based on LLC from 2D and 3D measurements. Furthermore, we also investigated error in absolute value and correlations between 2D and 3D measurements in LLC. Results The accuracy of image-free navigation based on 2D measurement was 94% within 5 mm and 76% within 3 mm. The accuracy of image-free navigation based on 3D measurement was 92% within 5 mm and 81% within 3 mm. The error in absolute value in LLC between 2D and 3D measurements was 1.7 ± 1.4 mm (range, 0 to 6 mm). A strong correlation was observed between 2D and 3D measurements in the LLC. Conclusions In the present study, good accuracy of image-free navigation in intraoperative LLC was confirmed for both evaluation methods from 2D and 3D measurements. In addition, the error in absolute value in the LLC between 2D and 3D measurements was very small, and we observed a strong correlation between 2D and 3D measurements. Based on these results, evaluation of LLC from radiographs was considered sufficient if radiographs can be taken accurately.

Abstract
Objective We performed a retrospective study to compare the accuracy of preoperative planning using three-dimensional AI-HIP software and traditional two-dimensional manual templating to predict the size and position of prostheses. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of AI-HIP in preoperative planning for primary total hip arthroplasty. Methods In total, 316 hips treated from April 2019 to June 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. A typical preoperative planning process for patients was implemented to compare the accuracy of the two preoperative planning methods with respect to prosthetic size and position. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were used to evaluate the homogeneity between the actual prosthetic size and position and the preoperative planning method. Results When AI-HIP software and manual templating were used for preoperative planning, the stem agreement was 87.7% and 58.9%, respectively, and the cup agreement was 94.0% and 65.2%, respectively. The results showed that when AI-HIP software was used, an extremely high level of consistency (ICC > 0.95) was achieved for the femoral stem size, cup size, and femoral osteotomy level (ICC = 0.972, 0.962, and 0.961, respectively). Conclusion AI-HIP software showed excellent reliability for predicting the component size and implant position in primary total hip arthroplasty.

Blakeney WG, Urvoy M, Chaoui J, Raiss P, Athwal GS, Walch G. Development and assessment of 3-dimensional computed tomography measures of proximal humeral bone density: a comparison to established 2-dimensional measures and intraoperative findings in patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty. JSES Int 2021; 5:1008-1013.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to develop novel three-dimensional (3D) measures of bone density from computed tomography (CT) scans and to compare them with validated two-dimensional (2D) radiographic assessments of bone density. Patient demographic data were also analyzed to see if there were any predictors of bone density (age, sex, etiology). Methods The study group consisted of 290 consecutive patients undergoing primary shoulder arthroplasty surgery (total anatomic, reverse, and hemiarthroplasty). All underwent preoperative CT imaging. Three 3D CT measurements (metaphysis cancellous, metaphysis cortical, and proximal diaphysis) were developed and automated into software. The developed 3D measurements were compared with validated 2D measures (Tingart and Gianotti Index). Patient demographic data were correlated with these measurements. The difference between the size of the final sounder and of the final stem was calculated as Delta. Results There was moderately strong correlation between Tingart and Gianotti measures (0.674, P < .001), as well as between 3D metaphysis cancellous measurements and Tingart (0.645, P < .001). Decreased bone density was highly correlated with female sex. Tingart (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.87, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.82-0.91) and 3D metaphysis cancellous (AUC: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.72-0.84) had the highest correlation. These were significantly more than other measures of bone density (P < .01). Decreased bone density measured with Tingart also had moderate correlation with advanced age (AUC: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.6-0.73), but less so for etiology (AUC: 0.62, 95% CI: 0.55-0.69). The 3D metaphysis cancellous measure had lower correlation with age (AUC: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.52-0.66) and etiology (AUC: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.52-0.65). The highest correlation with Delta (the difference between the final sounder and the stem size) was with the 3D metaphysis cancellous measure (AUC: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.59-0.73), followed by Tingart (AUC: 0.647, 95% CI: 0.57-0.671). A multiple regression model to predict Delta demonstrated the stronger prediction using 3D metaphysis cancellous (analysis of variance F-ratio of 42.6, P < .001) than Tingart (35.9, P < .001). Conclusion This study demonstrates that automated measures of bone density can be obtained from 3D CT scans. Of the three novel 3D measurements of bone density, the humeral metaphysis cancellous measurement was most correlated to the known 2D measures and most correlated to the intraoperative assessment of bone density (delta).

Early postoperative clinical recovery of robotic arm-assisted vs. image-based navigated Total hip Arthroplasty. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:314. [PMID: 33781263 PMCID: PMC8008585 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-021-04162-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study compared the early clinical recovery of total hip arthroplasty (THA) using computer navigation systems (nTHA) and robotic arm-assisted THA (rTHA). METHODS Thirty prospective subjects who underwent rTHA were clinically compared to 30 subjects who underwent nTHA. Clinical data (surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, pain severity, number of days to independent walking, and Harris Hip Score (HHS) at discharge), and radiographic parameters (inclination and anteversion angles) were statistically compared between the two groups. RESULTS Follow-up times were 24.3 ± 6.0 and 27.0 ± 7.0 days in the rTHA and nTHA groups, respectively. The surgical time (135.1 ± 13.9 min vs. 146.2 ± 12.8 min, p = 0.002), number of days to independent walking (7.2 ± 2.0 vs. 11.5 ± 3.0 days, p < 0.001), and postoperative pain using a numeric rating scale on postoperative days 7, 10,, and 14 (1.4 ± 0.9 vs. 2.2 ± 1.2, p = 0.005; 1.0 ± 0.8 vs. 1.8 ± 1.1, p = 0.002; 0.3 ± 0.5 vs. 1.1 ± 0.9, p < 0.001; respectively) were significantly reduced in the rTHA group compared to the nTHA group. The rTHA group showed a significantly higher postoperative HHS compared to the nTHA group (85.3 ± .3.2 vs. 81.0 ± 8.5, p = 0.014). No statistically significant difference was observed in radiographic parameters between the groups; however, the incidence of intraoperative target angle changes was significantly lower in the rTHA group than in the nTHA group (0/30 subjects [0%] vs. 11/30 subjects [36.7%], p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The surgical time, postoperative pain, and number of days to independent walking were significantly shorter, and the HHS at discharge was significantly higher in the rTHA group than in the nTHA group. Thus, compared to the nTHA group, the rTHA group showed improved early clinical recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Templating is a critical part of preoperative planning for total hip arthroplasty (THA). The accuracy of templating on images acquired with EOS is unknown. This study sought to compare the accuracy and reproducibility of templating for THA using EOS imaging to conventional digital radiographs. METHODS Forty-three consecutive primary unilateral THAs were retrospectively templated, six months postoperatively, using preoperative 2D EOS imaging and conventional radiographs. Two blinded observers templated each case for acetabular and femoral component size and femoral offset. The retrospectively templated sizes were compared to the sizes selected during surgery. Interobserver agreement was calculated, and the influence of demographic variables was explored. RESULTS EOS templating predicted the exact acetabular and femoral size in 71% and 66% of cases, respectively, and to within one size in 98% of cases. The acetabular and femoral component size was more likely to be templated to the exact size using EOS compared to conventional imaging (P < .05). The femoral component offset choice was accurately predicted in 83% of EOS cases compared to 80% of conventional templates (P = .341). Component size and offset were not influenced by patient age, gender, laterality, or BMI. Interobserver agreement was excellent for acetabular (Cronbach's alpha = 0.94) and femoral (Cronbach's alpha = 0.96) component size. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative templating for THA using EOS imaging is accurate, with an excellent interobserver agreement. EOS exposes patients to less radiation than traditional radiographs, and its three-dimensional applications should be explored as they may further enhance preoperative plans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate preoperative planning is a key component of successful total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of the present study was to compare the accuracy and reliability of three-dimensional (hipEOS) and common digital two-dimensional (TraumaCad) templating with special focus on stem morphology. METHODS 51 patients undergoing THA were randomized to two groups. Preoperative planning was performed on 23 patients with hipEOS (3D) and on 28 patients with TraumaCad (2D) planning software. Planning results were compared with the implanted component size. Inter- and intraobserver reliability as well as planning accuracy of both planning methods with special focus on straight and short stem design were recorded. RESULTS Intraobserver reliability of both planning methods was good for component planning (ICC2,1: 0.835-0.967). Interobserver ICC2,1 for stem and cup planning were higher for 3D templating (3D ICC2,1: 0.906-0.918 vs. 2D ICC2,1: 0.835-0.843). Total stem and cup size predictions were within 2 sizes for 3D and within 3 sizes for 2D planning. Comparing short stem planning accuracy of both planning methods, absolute difference between implanted and planned component size was significantly lower in 3D planning (P = .029). There was no significant difference in straight stem (P = .935) and cup (P = .954) planning accuracy. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that 3D templating with hipEOS software has a good overall reliability and may have a better planning accuracy of short stem prostheses than digital templating with TraumaCad software. Assuming that the number of implanted short stem prostheses will further increase in coming years, a more precise planning with 3D technique can contribute to improve surgery outcome.

Abstract
Background Accurate preoperative planning is an important step for accurate reconstruction in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Presently, preoperative planning is completed using either a two-dimensional (2D) template or three-dimensional (3D) mimics software. With the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, AI HIP, a planning software based on AI technology, can quickly and automatically identify acetabular and femur morphology, and automatically match the optimal prosthesis size. However, the accuracy and feasibility of its clinical application still needs to be further verified. The purposes of this study were to investigate the accuracy and time efficiency of AI HIP in preoperative planning for primary THA, compared with 3D mimics software and 2D digital template, and further analyze the factors that influence the accuracy of AI HIP. Methods A prospective study was conducted on 53 consecutive patients (59 hips) undergoing primary THA with cementless prostheses in our department. All preoperative planning was completed using AI HIP as well as 3D mimics and 2D digital template. The predicted component size and the actual implantation results were compared to determine the accuracy. The templating time was compared to determine the efficiency. Furthermore, the potential factors influencing the accuracy of AI HIP were analyzed including sex, body mass index (BMI), and hip dysplasia. Results The accuracy of predicting the size of acetabular cup and femoral stem was 74.58% and 71.19%, respectively, for AI HIP; 71.19% (P = 0.743) and 76.27% (P = 0.468), respectively, for 3D mimics; and 40.68% (P < 0.001) and 49.15% (P = 0.021), respectively, for 2D digital templating. The templating time using AI HIP was 3.91 ± 0.64 min, which was equivalent to 2D digital templates (2.96 ± 0.48 min, P < 0.001), but shorter than 3D mimics (32.07 ± 2.41 min, P < 0.001). Acetabular dysplasia (P = 0.021), rather than sex and BMI, was an influential factor in the accuracy of AI HIP templating. Compared to patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), the accuracy of acetabular cup in the non-DDH group was better (P = 0.021), but the difference in the accuracy of the femoral stem between the two groups was statistically insignificant (P = 0.062). Conclusion AI HIP showed excellent reliability for component size in THA. Acetabular dysplasia may affect the accuracy of AI HIP templating.

Abstract
PURPOSE The mechanisms underlying thigh pain in patients with well-fixed cementless femoral components after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. We hypothesized that the thigh pain is correlated with the initial contact state of the stem and aimed to investigate the relation between thigh pain and the initial contact state. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 209 hips of 184 patients were analysed in this retrospective case-control study. The patients were divided into a thigh pain group (n = 13 hips) and a control group (without thigh pain, n = 196). Post-operative stem contact images were three-dimensionally visualized by a density mapping function using computed tomography data, which quantified the stem contact area according to Gruen zones. Thigh pain was defined as anterior or anterolateral pain upon loading at 3-month post-operatively. RESULTS Thirteen hips (6.2%) had thigh pain; however, all the hips demonstrated stable bony ingrowth radiographically. The thigh pain group had a significantly lower contact area in zone 2 (p = 0.014). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the contact area of zone 2 was negatively correlated with thigh pain [odds ratio (OR): 0.858, p = 0.018], and the canal flare index was negatively correlated with the development of thigh pain (OR: 0.336, p = 0.026). CONCLUSIONS We identified an association between the initial contact state and post-operative thigh pain. Our data demonstrated that proper lateral contact prevents the occurrence of thigh pain in THA using a tapered wedge stem.

Abstract
Objective To examine the accuracy, reliability, and reproducibility of a simple preoperative planning technique using plain X‐rays. Methods A retrospective analysis of 96 consecutive cases of primary direct anterior approach (DAA)‐total hip arthroplasty (THA) from July 2015 to December 2018 was performed. The 96 patients included 24 males and 72 females, with an average age of 70 years. The standard AP pelvis radiographs with the patients' hips extended and internally rotated were obtained pre‐ and postoperatively. The preoperative planning was also completed on the standardized AP pelvic radiographs. The prearranged cup positioning was radiologically measured intraoperatively using fluoroscopy. The correct leg length was assessed intraoperatively, which was compared with the preoperative planning. The component positioning was measured by three independent researchers. Two of the researchers completed the measurements three times, and intra‐observer and inter‐observer reliability were calculated. All patients received at least 6 months follow‐up (6 months–4 years). Results In all cases, the median leg length discrepancy (LLD) was 4.4 mm (range 1.6–15.9 mm), and 84 patients had an LLD smaller than 10 mm, of which 58 patients had an LLD of less than 5 mm. None of the patients had a critical LLD of 2 cm or larger. The multivariable logistic regression for LLD (safe range: yes/no) with the co‐variables including gender, ASA classification, type of cup, the surgeon's experience level, and the presence of a total hip arthroplasty (THA) on the contralateral side did not present statistical significance. The median angle of the inclination of the acetabular component (IA) was 42.3° (range: 28.7°–52.2°). Ninety‐one patients were within the defined safe range. The hit ratio for the cup to be within the safe zone was significantly higher for the Pinnacle cups than that for the Continuum cups (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference in gender, ASA classification, the surgeon's experience level, and the presence of a total hip arthroplasty (THA) on the contralateral side. The median of its anteversion (AA) was 20.6° (range: 10.6°–40.1°). Only 41 patients were within the defined safe range. None of the co‐variables presented a statistical significance affecting the AA of the cup positioning. Meanwhile, the average fluoroscopy time for the cup positioning (n = 86, missing data in 10 cases) was 4 seconds (range: 1–74), with most of the patients (97.9%) having a fluoroscopy time of fewer than 20 seconds. Conclusions The combination of correct preoperative planning and standardized intraoperative measurements can reestablish right leg length and assure the correct cup positioning.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) pre-operative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is being recognized as a useful tool in planning elective surgery, and as crucial to define the optimal component size, position and orientation. The aim of this study was to systematically review the existing literature for the use of 3D pre-operative planning in primary THA.A systematic literature search was performed using keywords, through PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar, to retrieve all publications documenting the use of 3D planning in primary THA. We focussed on (1) the accuracy of implant sizing, restoration of hip biomechanics and component orientation; (2) the benefits and barriers of this tool; and (3) current gaps in literature and clinical practice.Clinical studies have highlighted the accuracy of 3D pre-operative planning in predicting the optimal component size and orientation in primary THAs. Component size planning accuracy ranged between 34-100% and 41-100% for the stem and cup respectively. The absolute, average difference between planned and achieved values of leg length, offset, centre of rotation, stem version, cup version, inclination and abduction were 1 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm, 4°, 7°, 0.5° and 4° respectively.Benefits include 3D representation of the human anatomy for precise sizing and surgical execution. Barriers include increased radiation dose, learning curve and cost. Long-term evidence investigating this technology is limited.Emphasis should be placed on understanding the health economics of an optimized implant inventory as well as long-term clinical outcomes.

Di Laura A, Henckel J, Hothi H, Hart A. Can 3D surgical planning and patient specific instrumentation reduce hip implant inventory? A prospective study. 3D Print Med 2020; 6:25.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Modern designs of joint replacements require a large inventory of components to be available during surgery. Pre-operative CT imaging aids 3D surgical planning and implant sizing, which should reduce the inventory size and enhance clinical outcome. We aimed to better understand the impact of the use of 3D surgical planning and Patient Specific Instrumentation (PSI) on hip implant inventory. METHODS An initial feasibility study of 25 consecutive cases was undertaken to assess the discrepancy between the planned component sizes and those implanted to determine whether it was possible to reduce the inventory for future cases. Following this, we performed a pilot study to investigate the effect of an optimized inventory stock on the surgical outcome: we compared a group of 20 consecutive cases (experimental) with the 25 cases in the feasibility study (control). We assessed: (1) accuracy of the 3D planning system in predicting size (%); (2) inventory size changes (%); (3) intra and post-operative complications. RESULTS The feasibility study showed variability within 1 size range, enabling us to safely optimize inventory stock for the pilot study. (1) 3D surgical planning correctly predicted sizes in 93% of the femoral and 89% of the acetabular cup components; (2) there was a 61% reduction in the implant inventory size; (3) we recorded good surgical outcomes with no difference between the 2 groups, and all patients had appropriately sized implants. CONCLUSIONS 3D planning is accurate in up to 95% of the cases. CT-based planning can reduce inventory size in the hospital setting potentially leading to a reduction in costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inferior placement of a femoral stem is predictive for early loosening and failure, but does restoration of the original hip anatomy benefit the function and survival of a total hip replacement? METHODS Seventy-five patients with primary unilateral hip osteoarthritis operated with an uncemented anatomical stem were randomized for either standard or modular stems. We used 50 ABG II stems with modular necks and 25 standard stems (control group). We measured the symmetry in hip anatomy between healthy and operated side. The anatomical restoration variables were anteversion, global offset, and femoral offset/acetabular offset (FO/AO) quota. We performed measurements using a CT-based 3D templating and measuring software. Migratory behavior of the stems was then measured postoperatively with repeated radiostereometry (RSA) examinations over 5 years. RESULTS Both stem types showed an early (within 3 months) good stabilization after an initial slight rotation into retroversion and subsidence. There were no significant differences in RSA migration between modular and standard stems. Postoperative anteversion and FO/AO quota had no impact on stem migration. The standard stem tended to result in insufficient global offset (GO), whereas the modular stem did not. CONCLUSIONS The modular stem gave good symmetrical anatomical restoration and, like the standard version, a benign migratory behavior. Anteversion, GO, and FO/AO quota had no significant impact on stem migration. It therefore seems to be of no importance whether we choose a modular or a standard stem with regard to postoperative stem migration for this stem type. We overestimated the effect anatomical parameters have on stem movement; hence, we believe the study to be underpowered. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01512550.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pre-operative templating for total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains inaccurate due to improper magnification and alignment. We aimed to describe an improved templating strategy using computed tomography (CT) to predict component sizes and offsets with greater accuracy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analysed 184 CT images acquired for pre-operative templating of primary THA. We aimed to restore native (pre-arthritic) femoral offset and limb length, by raising the head center to the level of the templated cup center cranio-caudally, but maintaining the pathologic (pre-operative) head center medio-laterally (except in medialized hips). Acetabular offset (AO) and femoral offset (FO) were measured on pre-operative CT scans, during acetate templating, and on post-operative true antero-posterior radiographs. RESULTS The post-operative offsets were within ± 5 mm from templated estimates in 174 hips (91%) for AO, in 116 hips (61%) for FO, in 111 hips (58%) for GO, and in 134 hips (70%) for neck cut level. The post-operative hip architecture reproduced the templated hip architecture within ±5 mm in 77 hips (40%). The agreement between planned and post-operative parameters was moderate for stem size (0.57), cup size (0.62), AO (0.50), but fair for FO (0.45). The AO decreased in most arthritic types, notably in lateralized hips (6.6 mm), but remained unchanged in medialized hips. The FO increased in most arthritic types (1.8-3.1 mm) but remained unchanged in medialized and lateralized hips. CONCLUSIONS We described a strategy for pre-operative templating in THA. Despite the accuracy of CT, the authors found significant variations between planned and post-operative reconstructions, which suggest that pre-operative templating should only be used as an approximate guide.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Few studies evaluated clinical benefits of pre-operative templating in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We investigated whether mismatch between planned and real implant sizes and medio-lateral offsets compromises THA outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed records of 184 primary THAs with pre-operative CT scans used for templating. Acetabular offset (AO), femoral offset (FO) and global offset (GO) were measured on pre-operative CT scans, during acetate templating, and post-operative antero-posterior radiographs. Multivariable analyses were performed to determine if Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) and Oxford Hip Score (OHS) at > 2 years were associated with differences between post-operative and planned parameters. RESULTS The FJS and OHS were not influenced by mismatch of component sizes nor of FO and GO. The FJS was better when the post-operative AO was greater than planned (p = 0.050). The FJS differed among arthritic types (p = 0.015). Multivariable analyses confirmed that older patients had better OHS (beta - 0.16; p = 0.033) and FJS (beta 0.74; p = 0.002), medialized hips had worse FJS (beta - 20.1; p = 0.041) and hips with greater AO than planned had better FJS (beta 1.71; p = 0.024) CONCLUSIONS: Implanting a component of different size than planned did not compromise THA outcomes, but medialized hips had worse scores, and conservative acetabular reaming improved scores.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) relying on registration of the anterior pelvic plane (APP) allows precise acetabular component placement. We determined the variability of cup placement in patients who underwent THA with and without the use of CAS that does not rely on the registration of APP. METHODS Fifty-one patients who underwent staged-bilateral THAs, one without CAS (control), and a subsequent one with CAS (study group), were included. Acetabular inclination and anteversion were measured on standardized post-operative radiographs. Variance in cup position and Lewinnek's zone proportionality were compared between the groups. Multiple regressions were performed to identify factors affecting variability in acetabular component placement. RESULTS The mean inclination for the control and study group was 42.7° (SD 4.5) and 42.5° (SD 2.9), respectively. The inclination variance was 20.5° and 8.2° respectively (p = < 0.001). Cup inclination was more consistent in the study than in the control group (deviation from the mean: 2.3° vs. 3.8°, p < 0.001). The mean anteversion for the control and the study group was 25.5° (SD 7.4) and 26.8° (SD 4.3), respectively. The anteversion variance was 54.2° and 18.2° respectively (p = <0.001). Consistency in cup anteversion was significantly improved with CAS (deviation from the mean: 3.4° vs. 5.8°; p = 0.002). Lewinnek's zone proportionality was not affected by the use of CAS. In the linear regression analysis, CAS significantly increased consistency in cup inclination (p = 0.01). Patient's factors including BMI and laterality affected consistency of cup placement. CONCLUSION CAS without referencing the APP allows a more consistent orientation of the acetabular component when compared to freehand placement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Computed tomography-based three-dimensional models may allow the accurate determination of the center of rotation, lateral and anterior femoral offsets, and the required implant size in total hip arthroplasty. In this cadaver study, the accuracy of anatomical reconstruction was evaluated using a three-dimensional planning tool. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of eight hip arthroplasties were performed on four bilateral specimens. Based on a computed tomography scan, the position and size of the prosthesis were templated with respect to the anatomical conditions. RESULTS On average, all parameters were reconstructed to an accuracy of 4.5 mm and lie within the limits recommended in the literature. All prostheses were implanted with the templated size. CONCLUSIONS The exact anatomy of the patient and the required size and position of the prosthesis were precisely analyzed using a templating software. Based on the present findings, the development of template-directed instrumentation is conceivable using this method. However, further technical features (e.g., navigation or robot-assisted surgery) are required for improved precision for implant positioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Restoring native hip anatomy and biomechanics is important to create a well-functioning hip arthroplasty. This study investigated the association of hip offset and leg length after hip arthroplasty with clinical outcomes, including patient reported outcome measures, the Trendelenburg Test and gait analysis. METHODS In 77 patients undergoing primary hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis (age mean = 65 SD = 11 years; BMI mean = 27 SD = 5 kg/m2), hip offset and leg length discrepancy were measured on anteroposterior radiographs. The Western Ontario & McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, the Trendelenburg Test and gait were assessed preoperatively, and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. An inertial measurement unit was used to derive biomechanical parameters, including spatiotemporal gait parameters and tilt angles of the pelvis. Relationships between radiographic and functional outcomes were investigated, and subgroups of patients with >15% decreased and increased femoral offset were analysed separately. FINDINGS Patient-reported function scores and clinical tests demonstrated a few significant, weak correlations with radiographic outcomes (Spearman's ρ range = 0.26-0.32; p < 0.05). Undercorrection of femoral offset was associated with lower patient-reported function scores and with more step irregularity as well as step asymmetry during gait. Postoperative leg length inequality was associated with increased frontal plane tilt angle of the pelvis during the Trendelenburg Test and increased sagittal plane motion of the pelvis during gait. Femoral offset subgroups demonstrated no significant differences for patient-reported function scores and outcomes of the Trendelenburg Test and gait analysis. INTERPRETATION Reduced hip offset and leg length discrepancy following hip arthroplasty seem to be marginally associated with worse clinical outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of preoperative templating in total hip arthroplasty (THA) using conventional 2-dimensional (2D) and computed tomography (CT)-based 3-dimensional (3D) measures. METHODS One hundred and sixteen consecutive primary THAs were analysed. The preoperative diagnosis was primary osteoarthritis in all cases. The 2D templating and the 3D templating were performed by two different residents. All templating results were available for the orthopaedic surgeon performing the procedure. Accuracies with regard to the predicted and actual implant sizes were determined for each procedure. Implantation of the size as planned was defined as "exact", whereas the use of components within one size larger or smaller (±1) as planned were defined as "accurate." RESULTS The 3D templating was significantly more accurate in predicting implant sizing compared to 2D templating for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). The difference was statistically significant for the cup templating (''exact'' p = 0.02; ''accurate'' p = 0.01) and for the stem templating (''exact'' p = 0.04; ''accurate'' p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Our results support the superiority of 3D templating over 2D templating in predicting implant size.

Abstract
Background Elective total hip arthroplasties (THAs) entail a more extensive pre-operative planning process compared to non-elective THAs and this may contribute to a disparity in outcomes. However, the differences in peri- and post-operative outcomes between elective and non-elective THAs remain unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to: (I) determine nationwide trends in operative times and (II) evaluate the association between surgery type, elective or non-elective with respect to (I) operative times; (II) hospital lengths-of-stay (LOS); (III) discharge disposition; (IV) 30-day post-operative complications; (V) reoperations; and (VI) readmissions. Methods The NSQIP database was queried for all primary THAs (CPT code 27130) performed between 2011 and 2016. This yielded 130,261 cases, which were then stratified into elective (n=125,293) and non-elective (n=4,968) cases. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to evaluate the associations between operative times and surgery year. Univariate analyses of surgery type with the following outcomes of interest were also performed: operative times, LOS, and discharge disposition as well as 30-day complication, reoperation, and readmission rates. A multiple linear regression model was used to evaluate the relationships of operative times and LOS with surgery types after adjusting for surgery year and patient factors [age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score]. A log-transformed dependent variable was used to calculate the percentage difference in mean operative times and LOS. Multivariate logistic regression models adjusted for patient factors and year of surgery were used to evaluate associations of surgery type with complication, reoperation, and readmission rates. Results Over the 6-year period, mean operative times (93 vs. 103 minutes, P<0.001) and LOS (3 vs. 6 days, P<0.001) were significantly shorter in elective cases compared to non-elective cases. The relationships between operative times or LOS and surgery type remained significant even after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, ASA, and year of surgery (P<0.001). Compared to the non-elective cohort, patients in the elective cohort were more likely to be discharged home (74% vs. 69%, P<0.001). Elective patients had lower rates of several 30-day complications including deep SSI (P<0.001), transfusions (P<0.001), sepsis (P<0.001), and readmission (P<0.005) compared to non-elective patients. These associations remained significant after accounting for potential confounders with multivariate logistic regression. Conclusions Findings from this study showed that elective THAs, in which there is more potential for pre-operative planning, were associated with shorter operative times and LOS, as well as fewer complication and readmission rates. These results likely reflect the development of more efficient surgical techniques and improved pre- and intra-operative planning guides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Anatomical landmarks for templating of total hip arthroplasty (THA) that are visible both during surgery and on radiographs are rare. If surgery is performed through a direct anterior approach the external obturator tendon (EO) is consistently visible. To use this point as a reference the exact position and dimensions of the footprint need to be known. AIM: To determine the location and dimension of the EO footprint on pelvic radiographs by correlating the EO anatomy in CT scans with conventional radiographs. METHODS: CT scans and radiographs of 200 patients were analysed. The EO tendon was identified on CT scans; the height of its footprint, and its distance to the tip of the greater trochanter and to the anatomical axis of the femur was measured. The accuracy and inter-rater reliability in the identification of the EO footprint was determined. RESULTS: The EO tendon was visible on all CT scans and it's footprint was identifiable on all corresponding radiographs. It's cranio-caudal dimension was 6.4 ± 1.4 mm. It's distance to the tip of the greater trochanter was 16.0 ± 3.1 mm. The EO footprint was located 5.2 ± 3.7 mm lateral to the femoral anatomical axis. There was no significant difference regarding the accuracy of EO footprint localisation on radiographs among the 2 readers. CONCLUSION: The EO footprint on the greater trochanter is consistently visible on CT scans and radiographs. As the variability of the footprint dimension is small, this structure may serve as a useful landmark in THA, particularly when performed through a direct anterior approach.

Abstract
In joint surgery, evaluation of the relative positions and angles among joint structures (bones, ligaments, muscle, and cartilages, etc.) in range of motion, lifting and weight bearing of the joint is required. However, current volume visualization techniques provide only static 3D images of anatomic structures in volume data. We propose a method to manipulate (reposition, resize and bend) the joint structures in a volume, by which surgeons can visualize and evaluate the critical positions or angles of the joint structures, and thus plan surgery to correct the morphologic pathology of the joint structures. We also propose a system with a real-time cutting simulation function together with the proposed structure manipulation functions by which surgeons can rehearse and verify joint surgery.

Interobserver and Intraobserver Reliability of Three-Dimensional Preoperative Planning Software in Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2018; 33:601-607. [PMID: 28927561 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2017.08.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2017] [Revised: 07/27/2017] [Accepted: 08/22/2017] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to clarify interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities of the three-dimensional (3D) templating of total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS We selected preoperative computed tomography from 60 hips in 46 patients (14 men and 32 women) who underwent primary THA. To evaluate interobserver and intraobserver reliability, 6 orthopedic surgeons performed 3D templating twice over a 4-week interval. We investigated intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and percent agreement of component size and alignment, comparing morphological differences in the hip. Reproducibility was also compared between groups with osteoarthritis (OA) and those with osteonecrosis (ON). RESULTS The interobserver reliabilities for mean cup size and stem size were excellent, with ICC = 0.907 and 0.944, respectively. The value was significantly higher in the ON group than in the OA group. In the OA group, the reliability of cup size and alignment decreased in hips with severe subluxation. Percent agreement of stem size was significantly different between the shapes of femoral canal. For intraobserver reliability, the mean ICC of cup size was 0.965 overall, while the value in the ON group was significantly higher than in the OA group. The mean ICC of stem size was 0.972 overall. CONCLUSION Computed tomography-based 3D templating showed excellent reliability for component size and alignment in THA. Deformity of the affected joint influenced the reliability of preoperative planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anatomical reconstruction in total hip arthroplasty (THA) allows for physiological muscle function, good functional outcome and implant longevity. Quantitative data on the effect of a loss or gain of femoral offset (FO) are scarce. The aim of this study was to quantitatively describe the effect of FO changes on abductor moment arms, muscle and joint reactions forces. METHODS THA was virtually performed on 3D models built from preoperative CT scans of 15 patients undergoing THA. Virtual THA was performed with a perfectly anatomical reconstruction, a loss of 20% of FO (-FO), and a gain of 20% of FO (+FO). These models were combined with a generic musculoskeletal model (OpenSim) to predict moment arms, muscle and joint reaction forces during normal gait cycles. RESULTS In average, with -FO reconstructions, muscle moment arms decreased, while muscle and hip forces increased significantly (p < 0.001). We observed the opposite with +FO reconstructions. Gluteus medius was more affected than gluteus minimus. -FO had more effect than +FO. A change of 20% of FO induced an average change 8% of abductor moment arms, 16% of their forces, and 6% of the joint reaction force. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first report providing quantitative data on the effect of FO changes on muscle and joint forces during normal gait. A decrease of FO necessitates an increase of abductor muscle force to maintain normal gait, which in turn increases the joint reaction force. This effect underscores the importance of an accurate reconstruction of the femoral offset.

Abstract
PURPOSE An increasing number of orthopaedic surgeons are using computer aided planning tools for bone removal applications. The aim of the study was to consolidate a set of generic functions to be used for a 3D computer assisted planning or simulation. METHODS A limited subset of 30 surgical procedures was analyzed and verified in 243 surgical procedures of a surgical atlas. Fourteen generic functions to be used in 3D computer assisted planning and simulations were extracted. RESULTS Our results showed that the average procedure comprises 14 ± 10 (SD) steps with ten different generic planning steps and four generic bone removal steps. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the study shows that with a limited number of 14 planning functions it is possible to perform 243 surgical procedures out of Campbell's Operative Orthopedics atlas. The results may be used as a basis for versatile generic intraoperative planning software.

Abstract
This numerical vibration finite element (FE) study introduces resonance three-dimensional planning (RP3D) to assess preoperatively the primary stability of a cementless stem for total hip arthroplasty. Based on a patient's CT-scan and a numerical model of a stem, RP3D aims at providing mechanical criteria indicative of the achievable primary stability. We investigate variations of the modal response of the stem to changes of area and apparent stiffness of the bone-implant interface. The model is computationally cheap as it does not include a mesh of the bone. The apparent stiffness of the bone is modeled by springs attached to the nodes of the stem's mesh. We investigate an extended range of stiffness values while, in future works, patient's specific Hounsfield values could be used to define stiffness. We report modal frequencies, shapes, and a ratio of elastic potential energies (rEPE) that quantifies the proximal motion that should be minimum for a stable stem. The modal response exhibits a clear transition between loose and tight contact as area and stiffness of the interface increase. rEPE thresholds that could potentially discriminate preoperatively between stable and unstable stems are given for a Symbios SPS® size C stem.

Accuracy and reproducibility of preoperative three-dimensional planning for total hip arthroplasty using biplanar low-dose radiographs : A pilot study. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2017; 103:531-536.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In total hip arthroplasty (THA), the acetabular cup and femoral stem must be correctly sized and positioned to avoid intraoperative and postoperative complications, achieve good functional outcomes and ensure long-term survival. Current two-dimensional (2D) techniques do not provide sufficient accuracy, while low-dose biplanar X-rays (EOS) had not been assessed in this indication. Therefore, we performed a case-control study to : (1) evaluate the prediction of stem and cup size for a new 3D planning technique (stereoradiographic imaging plus 3D modeling) in comparison to 2D templating on film radiographs and (2) evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of this 3D technique for preoperative THA planning. HYPOTHESIS Accuracy and reproducibility are better with the 3D vs. 2D method. PATIENTS AND METHODS Stem and cup sizes were retrospectively determined by two senior surgeons, twice, for a total of 31 unilateral primary THA patients in this pilot study, using 3D preplanning software on low-dose biplanar X-rays and with 2D templating on conventional anteroposterior (AP) film radiographs. Patients with a modular neck or dual-mobility prosthesis were excluded. All patients but one had primary osteoarthritis; one following trauma did not have a cup implanted. The retrospectively planned sizes were compared to the sizes selected during surgery, and intraclass coefficients (ICC) calculated. RESULTS 3D planning predicted stem size more accurately than 2D templating: stem sizes were planned within one size in 26/31 (84%) of cases in 3D versus 21/31 (68%) in 2D (P=0.04). 3D and 2D planning accuracies were not significantly different for cup size: cup sizes were planned within one size in 28/30 (92%) of cases in 3D versus 26/30 (87%) in 2D (P=0.30). ICC for stem size were 0.88 vs. 0.91 for 3D and 2D, respectively. Inter-operator ICCs for cup size were 0.84 vs. 0.71, respectively. Repetitions of the 3D planning were within one size (except one stem), with the majority predicting the same size. DISCUSSION Increased accuracy in 3D may be due to the use of actual size (non-magnified) images, and judging fit on AP and lateral images simultaneously. Results for other implant components may differ from those presented. Size selection may improve further with planning experience, based on a feedback loop between planning and surgical execution.

Abstract
Background Preoperative total hip arthroplasty templating can be performed with radiographs using acetate prints, digital viewing software, or with computed tomography (CT) images. Our hypothesis is that 3D templating is more precise and accurate with cup size prediction as compared to 2D templating with acetate prints and digital templating software. Methods Data collected from 45 patients undergoing robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty compared cup sizes templated on acetate prints and OrthoView software to MAKOplasty software that uses CT scan. Kappa analysis determined strength of agreement between each templating modality and the final size used. t tests compared mean cup-size variance from the final size for each templating technique. Interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) determined reliability of digital and acetate planning by comparing predictions of the operating surgeon and a blinded adult reconstructive fellow. Results The Kappa values for CT-guided, digital, and acetate templating with the final size was 0.974, 0.233, and 0.262, respectively. Both digital and acetate templating significantly overpredicted cup size, compared to CT-guided methods (P < .001). There was no significant difference between digital and acetate templating (P = .117). Interclass correlation coefficient value for digital and acetate templating was 0.928 and 0.931, respectively. Conclusions CT-guided planning more accurately predicts hip implant cup size when compared to the significant overpredictions of digital and acetate templating. CT-guided templating may also lead to better outcomes due to bone stock preservation from a smaller and more accurate cup size predicted than that of digital and acetate predictions.

Preoperative digital planning versus postoperative outcomes in total hip arthroplasty using a calcar-guided short stem: frequent valgization can be avoided. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY AND TRAUMATOLOGY 2017; 27:643-651.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Modern total hip arthroplasty is largely dependent on the successful preservation of hip geometry. Thus, a successful implementation of the preoperative planning is of great importance. The present study evaluates the accuracy of anatomic hip reconstruction predicted by 2D digital planning using a calcar-guided short stem of the newest generation. METHODS A calcar-guided short stem was implanted in 109 patients in combination with a cementless cup using the modified anterolateral approach. Preoperative digital planning was performed including implant size, caput-collum-diaphyseal angle, offset, and leg length using mediCAD II software. A coordinate system and individual scale factors were implemented. Postoperative outcome was evaluated accordingly and was compared to the planning. RESULTS Intraoperatively used stem sizes were within one unit of the planned stem sizes. The postoperative stem alignment showed a minor and insignificant (p = 0.159) mean valgization of 0.5° (SD 3.79°) compared to the planned caput-collum-diaphyseal angles. Compared to the planning, mean femoral offset gained 2.18 (SD 4.24) mm, while acetabular offset was reduced by 0.78 (SD 4.36) mm during implantation resulting in an increased global offset of 1.40 (SD 5.51) mm (p = 0.0094). Postoperative femoroacetabular height increased by a mean of 5.00 (SD 5.98) mm (p < 0.0001) compared to preoperative measures. DISCUSSION Two-dimensional digital preoperative planning in calcar-guided short-stem total hip arthroplasty assures a satisfying implementation of the intended anatomy. Valgization, which has been frequently observed in previous short-stem designs, negatively affecting offset, can be avoided. However, surgeons have to be aware of a possible leg lengthening.

Varus will have varus; a radiological study to assess and predict varus stem placement in uncemented femoral stems. Hip Int 2016; 26:554-560.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Varus inclination of the uncemented stem is not necessarily a technical error. The proximal femoral anatomy of hips with a coxa vara deformity frequently predisposes varus inclination. METHODS We reviewed a series of 200 patients undergoing primary uncemented THA with the Corail® hip system. Preoperative data were based on patient demographics, diagnosis, and radiographic information (preoperative templating-CT measurements), and compared postoperative alignment for each stem and type of stem used. Proximal femoral traits which can alert surgeons, when templating preoperatively, to potential varus alignment were noted. RESULTS All stems were inserted either in neutral or varus alignments. Low neck shaft angle is strongly predictive of increased varus stem alignment (p<0.001). Stems inserted with higher varus alignment were associated with the preoperative morphological traits associated with coxa vara hip deformities - increased femoral offset (p<0.001), greater trochanteric overhang (p<0.001), greater trochanteric height (p<0.046), and a lower canal flare index (p<0.046). CONCLUSIONS Varus stem alignment is neither unexpected nor necessarily a technical failure when using this particular uncemented stem system. Coxa vara deformities, due to a combination of morphological traits, are more likely to be inserted with higher varus alignment than hips with normal or higher neck shaft angles. Surgeons need to be aware of this when carrying out preoperative templating and intraoperative assessment, in order to prevent over-compensation for offset, length or stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent registry data reveal that modular-neck hip prostheses are associated with increased revision rates compared to fixed-neck stems. Poor implant survival has been associated to corrosion at the neck-stem junction, inducing metal ion release and subsequently adverse local tissue reactions. Data on metal ion release on the neck-stem junction of such stems are scarce. The purpose of this study was to evaluate corrosion at this interface by determining metal ion release. METHODS Serum and whole blood metal ion levels of 40 patients after 1 year of implantation of a modular-neck stem (titanium stem and cobalt-chromium neck) were compared with 10 patients with a monobloc version of the stem (all titanium) and 10 patients having no implant at all. RESULTS Seven of 40 patients (18%) with a modular-neck stem had cobalt or chromium concentrations >2 μg/L. These patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging using metal artifact reduction sequences, which revealed a pseudotumor in 1 patient. CONCLUSION Corrosion at the neck-stem junction of modular-neck stems is a reported phenomenon, which is in part reflected by elevated systemic ion levels. The use of such implants should be restricted to a minimum, and screening algorithms of patients with such implants must be developed.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether postoperative combined anteversion (CA) can be kept within the safe zone while using cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the operative technique which prepares the socket first for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), by estimating the anteversion of the metaphyseal fit stem using preoperative three-dimensional (3D) computerized planning and by adjusting the anteversion of the socket using a navigation system that considers CA. Our subjects were 65 patients (65 hips) that had undergone cementless THA for DDH that could be observed for 1 year or more. Clinical assessments were made using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association’s (JOA) hip score. For a radiological evaluation, we investigated 3D-planned stem versions, postoperative stem versions, preoperative and postoperative CA, and the relationship between CA and dislocation tendencies with temporary intraoperative reductions. JOA hip scores improved from 52.3 ± 11.4 points to 88.9 ± 8.6 points. CT evaluations revealed that 3D-planned stem versions were strongly correlated with postoperative stem versions (r = 0.80; p < 0.01). Preoperative CA was 50.5° ± 7.2°, and postoperative CA was 41.3° ± 8.6°. Postoperative CA was kept within the safe zone in 61 hips. No intraoperative dislocation tendencies were observed in any hips. By estimating the anteversion of the cementless metaphyseal fit stem using 3D planning preoperatively and adjusting the angle of anteversion of the socket using a navigation system that considers CA intraoperatively, postoperative CA can very frequently be kept within the safe zone, even with cementless THA using the operative technique which prepares the socket first for DDH.
