Component rotational mismatch in the standing position is a potential risk factor for unfavourable functional outcomes after total knee arthroplasty. J Exp Orthop 2024; 11:e12069. [PMID: 38957227 PMCID: PMC11217670 DOI: 10.1002/jeo2.12069] [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: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study assessed rotational mismatch between components after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the supine and standing positions and aimed to investigate the effect of rotational mismatch in the standing position on postoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). Methods Seventy-one patients (71 knees) who underwent TKA for medial knee osteoarthritis were used to investigate rotational mismatches between components. Rotational mismatches between components were examined on postoperative standing whole-leg and supine knee radiographs using a three-dimensional-to-two-dimensional model image registration technique, and the angles between the reference axes of the components were measured. Component alignment was evaluated using postoperative computed tomography images, and a questionnaire (2011 version of the Knee Society Score: [KSS 2011]) was mailed to investigate postoperative PROMs. Results In the entire cohort, rotational mismatches in the supine and standing positions were similar (p = 0.9315). In 15% of patients, the mismatch was large (>5°) in the supine position but small (<5°) in the standing position (overestimated group). However, in 23% of patients, the mismatch was small (<5°) in the supine position and large (>5°) in the standing position (underestimated group). The underestimated group had severe preoperative varus deformity, resulting in external rotation of both femoral and tibial components. Rotational mismatch in the standing position (p = 0.0032) was a significant risk factor for unfavourable PROMs. Patients with a mismatch in the standing position had significantly lower scores than those without a mismatch (p = 0.0215), exceeding the minimal clinically important difference values. Conclusions The underestimated group is clinically important because the surgical procedure and intraoperative assessment of component placement are performed in the supine position. In cases of severe preoperative varus deformity, care should be taken not to place the component in malrotation to avoid rotational mismatch in the standing position. Level of Evidence Ⅳ, Case series.

Abstract
The potential use of gait analysis for quantitative preoperative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA) has previously been demonstrated. However, the joint kinematic data measured through this process tend to be unreliable for surgical planning due to distortions caused by soft tissue artifacts (STAs). In this study, we developed a novel motion capture framework by combining computed tomography (CT)-based postural calibration and subject-specific multibody dynamics modeling to prevent the effect of STAs in measuring hip kinematics. Three subjects with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome were recruited, and CT data for each patient were collected by attaching marker clusters near the hip. A subject-specific multibody hip joint model was developed based on reconstructed CT data. Spring-dashpot network calculations were performed to minimize the distance between the anatomical landmark and its corresponding infrared reflective marker. The STAs of the thigh was described as six degrees of freedom viscoelastic bushing elements, and their parameter values were identified via smooth orthogonal decomposition. Least squares optimization was used to modify the pelvic rotations to compensate for the rigid components of STAs. The results showed that CT-assisted motion tracking enabled the successful identification of STA influences in gait and squat positions. Furthermore, STA effects were found to alter maximal pelvis tilt and hip rotations during a squat. Compared to other techniques, such as dual fluoroscopic imaging, the adopted framework does not require additional medical imaging for patients undergoing robot-assisted THA surgery and is thus a practical way of evaluating hip joint kinematics for preoperative surgical planning.

Elucidation of target implant orientations with the safety range of hip rotation with adduction or abduction during squatting: Simulation based on in vivo replaced hip kinematics. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:1023721. [DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1023721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: The study aimed to elucidate target cup orientation and stem anteversions to avoid impingement between the liner and stem neck even at hip rotation with adduction during the deeply flexed posture.Methods: A computer simulation analysis was performed on 32 total hip arthroplasty patients applying patient-specific orientation of the components and in vivo hip kinematics obtained from three-dimensional analysis of the squatting motion. The anterior/posterior liner-to-neck distance and impingement were evaluated based on a virtual change in internal/external rotation (0°–60°) and adduction/abduction (0°–20°) at actual maximum flexion/extension during squatting. Cutoff values of cup orientations, stem anteversion, and combined anteversion to avoid liner-to-neck impingements were determined.Results: The anterior liner-to-neck distance decreased as internal rotation or adduction increased, and the posterior liner-to-neck distance decreased as external rotation or adduction increased. Negative correlations were found between anterior/posterior liner-to-neck distances at maximum flexion/extension and internal/external rotation. Anterior/posterior liner-to-neck impingements were observed in 6/18 hips (18/56%) at 45° internal/external rotation with 20° adduction. The range of target cup anteversion, stem anteversion, and combined anteversion to avoid both anterior and posterior liner-to-neck impingements during squatting were 15°–18°, 19°–34°, and 41°–56°, respectively.Conclusion: Simulated hip rotations caused prosthetic impingement during squatting. Surgeons could gain valuable insights into target cup orientations and stem anteversion based on postoperative simulations during the deeply flexed posture.

Multiple Imputation to Salvage Partial Respondents: Analysis of the Forgotten Joint Score-12 After Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2022; 104:2195-2203.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Missing responses are common when Asian patients complete the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12), which is widely used to evaluate total hip arthroplasty (THA). We aimed to provide orthopaedic researchers with a solution for handling missing values in such patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). METHODS Patients who had undergone primary THA between 1998 and 2016 (n = 1,021) were investigated in 2020. The FJS-12 and 9 other PROMs, including questions related to Asian lifestyle activities, were administered. Risk factors for missing FJS-12 items were investigated. Partial respondents were matched with complete respondents; then, in each pair, the items not completed by the partial respondent were deleted from the responses of the complete respondent. Predictive mean matching (PMM) was performed in an attempt to recover the deleted items, using 65 sets of imputation models. After the missing values had been imputed, we explored patient characteristics that affected the FJS-12, using data from all complete and partial respondents. RESULTS A total of 652 patients responded to the survey (393 complete and 193 partial respondents). Partial respondents were older, more often female, and less active. Older respondents were more likely to skip items involving the bed, while those who reported a better ability to sit in the seiza style (traditional Japanese floor sitting) were more likely to skip items about chair sitting. The imputed FJS-12 value exhibited excellent reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient for agreement with the true scores, 0.985). FJS-12 values of complete respondents were significantly higher than those of respondents with 4 to 11 missing items (51.6 versus 32.8, p < 0.001). Older age was associated with higher FJS-12 values, which was revealed only via analysis of the multiply imputed data sets (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Analysis of only complete FJS-12 responses after THA resulted in a nonresponse bias, preferentially excluding older, female, and less active individuals and those with a traditional floor living style. Multiple imputation could provide a solution to scoring and analyzing PROMs with missing responses by permitting the inclusion of partial respondents. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.
