Minimum 10-Year Survivorship of Uncemented Acetabular Reconstruction With Bulk Femoral Head Autografting in Crowe Type IV Developmental Hip Dysplasia. J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:2542-2546. [PMID: 38735553 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.05.013] [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: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In total hip arthroplasty (THA) for severe dislocations such as Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), sufficient bone volume for stable fixation of the acetabular component can be achieved by placing a reinforcing bone graft prepared from the resected femoral head into the deficient acetabulum. The purpose of the current study was to examine the long-term survivorship of uncemented THA in conjunction with a bulk femoral head autograft in patients who have Crowe type IV DDH. METHODS A total of 35 patients (42 hips) who have Crowe type IV DDH and underwent THA using uncemented cup fixation with bulk femoral head autografting were followed up for a mean period of 15.0 years (range, 10.0 to 20.0) postoperatively. Anteroposterior pelvic radiographs were used for measurements such as the horizontal coverage of the grafted bone and the center-edge angle. Kaplan-Meier survivorship analyses were performed with revision of the acetabular component as the endpoint. RESULTS The Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated 15-year survival rates of 90.4%. The mean horizontal coverage of grafted bone was 46.1% (range, 23.7 to 66.0), and there were 16 cases with horizontal coverage of ≥ 50%. There was no difference in the appearance of a thin (< 1 mm) radiolucency line around the cup between cases with < 50% versus ≥ 50% of the horizontal coverage of grafted bone (4 versus 2 hips; P = .446). Trabecular bridging and remodeling were seen in all cases after mean periods of 4.1 and 9.0 months postoperatively, respectively. Trabecular reorientation was seen in 41 of 42 hips (97.6%) at a mean follow-up of 19.9 months. CONCLUSIONS Acetabular reconstruction with femoral bulk bone grafting for Crowe type IV DDH resulted in high survival rates and was a good method to restore bone stock and obtain long-term fixation.

Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty With Paavilainen Femoral Shortening Osteotomy Can Provide Good Results at 10 Years in Patients Who Have Crowe IV Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip. J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:2316-2322. [PMID: 38614357 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.04.026] [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: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to present the clinical and radiologic results of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the femoral shortening osteotomy technique described by Paavilainen in patients who have Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the results of primary THA using the Paavilainen technique in 335 hips. The mean follow-up was 10.2 years. The degree of limp, leg-length discrepancy, and patient satisfaction were assessed. The Oxford Hip Score was used to examine functional outcomes. A number of radiographic parameters were also assessed. RESULTS The most common reason for revision surgery was nonunion of the distally advanced greater trochanter. This complication was observed in 22 hips (6.5%). The 10-year survival for acetabular components, it was 97.3%, and for femoral components was 98.7% with aseptic loosening as the end point, and 85.9% with reoperation for any reason as the end point. Patients demonstrated improved functional outcomes. The mean limb lengthening was 27.8 mm. Nonunion was more common if the contact length of the proximal femoral fragment with the lateral surface of the distal femoral fragment was less than 35 mm. CONCLUSIONS Cementless primary THA using the femoral shortening osteotomy technique described by Paavilainen in patients who have Crowe IV dysplasia of the hip demonstrates good clinical and radiologic postoperative results. If the contact between the fragments after osteotomy is less than 35 mm, there is a high risk of nonunion, and supplemental fixation may be warranted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Developmental dysplasia of the hip is the cause of approximately one third of secondary coxarthrosis. Anatomy alterations make it difficult to place a total hip prosthesis in its anatomical position and for it to be stable in the long term; there are several techniques to achieve this goal. In the present work, we used autograft of the femoral head (shelf graft or reinforced roof), to improve the coverage of the acetabular component with favourable results. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen cases were included in 14 patients with a diagnosis of developmental dysplasia of the hip (13 women and one man), the mean age was 44.3 years (range 35-68 years), with a mean follow-up of 7 years (range 1-15 years). All the cases were evaluated clinically and radiographically, to demonstrate the osseointegration of the graft and the functional results in the medium term. RESULTS All the acetabular components were placed in anatomical position (Ranawat technique), the mean percentage of host bone coverage was 54.53% (range 43.28-79.05%), obtaining additional coverage with the bone graft of 45.13%. Osseointegration of the graft of 100% at 12 weeks, resorption of the graft from the sixth month, stabilising in the third postoperative year. Only one case of dislocation is reported, no cases of infection, loosening, heterotopic ossification or revision. CONCLUSION This procedure has shown good functional results in the medium term with 100% osseointegration, despite cases of severe bone resorption of the graft that does not compromise the stability of the prosthesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to evaluate the mean 14-year outcomes of hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cementless acetabular cups using bulk femoral head autografts in acetabular reconstruction and specify the radiological characteristics of cementless acetabular cups using this technique. METHODS This retrospective study included 98 patients (123 hips) who underwent hybrid THA with a cementless acetabular cup using bulk femoral head autografts for bone deficiency in acetabular dysplasia and who were followed-up for a mean of 14 years (range, 10 to 19.6). The percentage of bone coverage index (BCI) and cup center-edge (CE) angles were evaluation radiologically of acetabular host bone coverage. The survival rate of the cementless acetabular cup and autograft bone ingrowth were assessed. RESULTS The survival rate with all revisions of cementless acetabular cups was 97.1% (95% confidence interval: 91.2 to 99.1). The autograft bone was remodeled or reoriented in all cases except in 2 hips where the bulk femoral head autograft collapsed. Radiological evaluation revealed a mean cup CE angle of -17.8° (range, -52 to -7°) and a BCI of 44.4% (range, 10 to 75.4%). CONCLUSION Cementless acetabular cups using bulk femoral head autografts for bone deficiency of the acetabular roof remained stable even if the average BCI was 44.4% and the average cup CE angle was -17.8°. Cementless acetabular cups using these techniques showed good 10-year to 19.6-year outcomes and viabilities of graft bones.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results and survival of the acetabular revision surgery of total hip arthroplasty with cemented implant without the use of reinforcement ring, associated with structural homologous bone grafting. Methods A total of 40 patients (44 hips) operated from 1995 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Radiographs were evaluated according to the classification of the acetabular bone defect, graft shape, and the presence of osseointegration. Cases were considered as failures when the migration of the implant was > 5 mm in any direction, and/or the progression of radiolucency lines around the acetabular component were > 2 mm. We verified the association of radiographic findings with cases of failure using statistical tests and analyzed survival using the Kaplan-Meier curve. Results Of the 44 hips, 45.5% of the acetabular defects were Paprosky type 3A and 50% were 3B. In 65% of the hips, the graft configuration was classified as Prieto type 1 and in 31% as type 2. No radiographic evidence of osseointegration was observed in 13.6% of the cases. We observed 9 (20.5%) reconstruction failures. A correlation was observed between reconstruction failure and the absence of radiographic signs of graft osseointegration. Conclusion We observed good clinic and radiographic results, with survival of 79.54% in a mean follow-up of 9.65 years. Also, there was an association between absence of radiographic signs of osseointegration of the structural graft and failure in this series of patients with large bone defects. The failures did not correlate with the severity of the acetabular bone defect, thickness, or graft configuration.

Abstract
Aims: In revision total hip arthroplasty (THA), large acetabular bone defects pose challenges for surgeons. Recently, wide application of trabecular tantalum, which has outstanding biocompatibility and mechanical properties, and the development of three-dimensional (3D) printing have led to the introduction of new schemes for acetabular reconstruction. However, few studies have focused on the treatment of bone defects with customized 3D-printed titanium augments combined with tantalum trabecular cup. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the effect of this therapy in patients who underwent revision THAs. Patients and Methods: We included 23 patients with Paprosky type III acetabular bone defects who underwent revision THA between January 2013 and June 2019. The preoperative hip rotation center and functional score were compared with those at 2–7 years (average 4.7 years) postoperatively to evaluate the midterm prognosis of our treatment choice. Results: Postoperatively, the rotation centres of all hips were comparable with those of the contralateral hips. Hip function improved with average Harris Hip Score improved from 33.5 (22.7–40.2) to 86.1 (73.5–95.6) and average Oxford Hip Score improved from 8.3 (0–14) to 38.8 (35–48) during follow-up. One dislocation, which occurred due to extreme hip flexion within 6 weeks, was treated with closed reduction, and no recurrent dislocation occurred. No nerve injury, infection, aseptic loosening, or osteolysis were observed and no re-revision was performed in any patient. Conclusion: Satisfactory midterm outcomes were obtained with 3D-printed titanium augment combined with tantalum cup for the treatment of acetabular defects in revision THA. Changes in the Harris Hip Score and Oxford Hip Score suggested a significant improvement in hip function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impacted bone-grafting with morselized allograft chips is commonly used to reconstruct acetabular bone defects in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). While the overall clinical outcome of this procedure is described to be excellent, the microstructural basis and histological determinants of allograft incorporation remained to be further elucidated. METHODS The acetabula of 23 individuals with documented previous use of allograft chips during revision THA were explanted post mortem. The time that the allografts were in situ averaged 10.3 ± 4.5 years (range, 1.2 to 19.8 years). The host bone (HB)-allograft bone (AB) interface was characterized using a suite of high-resolution (HR) imaging techniques including HR-peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), histological analysis, cellular histomorphometry, and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS AB could be identified in 16 of the 23 cases. The HB and AB showed overlap (i.e., ingrowth) in 91.3% of the total interface. The mean ingrowth was 2.2 ± 1.0 mm with a maximum of 4.7 ± 2.1 mm. The periphery of the AB showed a tight interconnection with the HB associated with increased bone remodeling indices and increased trabecular thickness. While no association between the time in situ and the ingrowth was observed, the bone defect area was positively associated with the thickness of a fibrosis layer separating the ingrowth zone from the AB. CONCLUSIONS Allograft chips in revision THA form an adequate osseous foundation with successful incorporation through ingrowth of the HB (i.e., osteoconduction). While complete remodeling was not observed, larger defects were associated with fibrosis formation, which may compromise stability. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our study provides the first systematic, multiscale long-term evaluation of chip allograft incorporation in revision THA to underscore its successful clinical use. As larger defects were associated with fibrous ingrowth, structural allografts may be superior for larger defects in terms of long-term outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS Various surgical techniques have been described for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Crowe type III dislocated hips, who have a large acetabular bone defect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term clinical results of patients in whom anatomical reconstruction of the acetabulum was performed using a cemented acetabular component and autologous bone graft from the femoral neck. METHODS A total of 22 patients with Crowe type III dislocated hips underwent 28 THAs using bone graft from the femoral neck between 1979 and 2000. A Charnley cemented acetabular component was placed at the level of the true acetabulum after preparation with bone grafting. All patients were female with a mean age at the time of surgery of 54 years (35 to 68). A total of 18 patients (21 THAs) were followed for a mean of 27.2 years (20 to 33) after the operation. RESULTS Radiographs immediately after surgery showed a mean vertical distance from the centre of the hip to the teardrop line of 21.5 mm (SD 3.3; 14.5 to 30.7) and a mean cover of the acetabular component by bone graft of 46% (SD 6%; 32% to 60%). All bone grafts united without collapse, and only three acetabular components loosened. The rate of survival of the acetabular component with mechanical loosening or revision as the endpoint was 86.4% at 25 years after surgery. CONCLUSION The technique of using autologous bone graft from the femoral neck and placing a cemented acetabular component in the true acetabulum can provide good long-term outcomes in patients with Crowe type III dislocated hips.

A novel, multi-level approach to assess allograft incorporation in revision total hip arthroplasty. Sci Rep 2020; 10:15226.

Abstract
The successful use of allografts in reconstructive orthopedic surgery, including revision total hip arthroplasty (THA), has been outlined repeatedly. Nonetheless, as previous studies were primarily based on clinical follow-ups, we aimed to create an algorithm that accurately determines the extent of allograft incorporation in the acetabulum and femur using a suite of high-resolution imaging techniques. This study is based on a large patient database including > 4,500 patient data with previous revision THA and simultaneous use of allografts. While the database was continuously matched with the deceased individuals at the local forensic medicine department, complete hips were retrieved in case of a positive match. A positive match was achieved for n = 46 hips at a mean follow-up of 11.8 ± 5.1 years. Comprehensive imaging included contact radiography, high-resolution computed tomography (HR-pQCT), undecalcified histology of ground sections and quantitative backscattered electron imaging (qBEI). We here define a histomorphometric toolkit of parameters to precisely characterize the incorporation of structural (bulk) and morselized (chip) allografts in the acetabulum (n = 38) and femur (n = 8), including the defect area and interface length, microstructural and cellular bone turnover parameters as well as overlap and fibrosis thickness. This collection of samples, through its unique study design and precise definition of incorporation parameters, will provide the scientific community with a valuable source for further in-depth investigation of allograft incorporation and, beyond that, the regenerative potential of this osteoconductive scaffold.

Abstract
Bone grafts, i.e., autologous, allogeneic or synthetic bone substitute materials play an increasing role in reconstructive orthopedic surgery. While the indications and materials differ, it is important to understand the cellular mechanisms regarding their integration and remodeling, which are discussed in this review article. Osteoconductivity describes the new bone growth on the graft, while osteoinductivity represents the differentiation of undifferentiated cells into bone forming osteoblasts. The best case is that both mechanisms are accompanied by osteogenesis, i.e., bone modeling and remodeling of the graft material. Graft incorporation is mediated by a number of molecular pathways that signal the differentiation and activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts (e.g., parathyroid hormone (PTH) and receptor activator of nuclear factor κβ ligand (RANKL), respectively). Direct contact of the graft and host bone as well as the presence of a mechanical load are a prerequisite for the successful function of bone grafts. Interestingly, while bone substitutes show good to excellent clinical outcomes, their histological incorporation has certain limits that are not yet completely understood. For instance, clinical studies have shown contrasting results regarding the complete or incomplete resorption and remodeling of allografts and synthetic grafts. In this context, a foreign body response can lead to complete material degradation via phagocytosis, however it may also cause a fibrotic reaction to the bone substitute. Finally, the success of bone graft incorporation is also limited by other factors, including the bone remodeling capacities of the host, the material itself (e.g., inadequate resorption, toxicity) and the surgical technique or preparation of the graft.

Long-term retrospective study on the placement of the cementless acetabular cup and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing femoral head autografting for hip dysplasia and total hip arthroplasty. J Orthop Sci 2018; 23:525-531. [PMID: 29503037 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2018.02.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2017] [Revised: 01/02/2018] [Accepted: 02/12/2018] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Placement of acetabular cup in the dysplastic hip is a challenging procedure. Using bulk femoral head autograft to increase the bony coverage of the cup is one of the techniques, which have been described. The impact of cup position on cup and autograft survival is a controversial issue. We aimed to determine whether the position of cementless acetabular cup used in conjunction with femoral head autograft in dysplastic hips affected the autograft-host incorporation with its final radiographic appearance and the cup survivorship into the second decade. METHODS Thirty-eight dysplastic hips with varying Crowe types in 31 patients (30 women and one man) were included. The mean age was 47 years (range, 29-64 years) and the mean follow-up was 20.3 years (range, 14.8-25.9 years). The initial postoperative and final radiographs were evaluated. The survival rate of the cups was analysed using Kaplan-Meier statistics and the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate the effect of variables (Crowe type, radiographic initial host bone coverage over the cup and position of the cup) on survivorship. RESULTS The acetabular cups were positioned anatomical in 27/38 hips according to Ranawat measurement technique. Trabecular bridging at graft-host interface was seen in all cases at an average 22.1 months. Neither acetabular cup position nor initial host bone coverage over acetabular cup less than 50% had any significant effect on either cup survival or final radiographic appearance of the graft. The 20-year cup survival rate without aseptic revision was 66% (95 CI, 52%-84%). No revision was performed due to graft resorption. CONCLUSION Twenty-year survival rate of the cementless cup combination with femoral head autograft showed no significant differences whether it was placed at high or anatomic hip centre. The final radiographic appearance of the autograft was not affected from either the cup location or the initial radiographic horizontal host bone coverage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) is challenging specially in the presence of severe acetabular bone deficiency. We report the use of a highly porous revision shell augmented by structural allograft to provide structural support and coverage to the acetabular component. METHODS We identified 56 patients (58 hips) undergoing revision THA, where a trabecular metal revision cup was supported by structural allograft. Mean follow-up was 5.4 years (range 2-12 years). Preoperatively acetabular bone defects were classified as Paprosky 2A in 6 hips (10%), 2B in 12 hips (21%), 2C in 12 hips (21%), 3A in 11 hips (19%), and 3B in 17 hips (29%). Structural allograft configuration was classified as type 1 (flying buttress) in 13 hips, type 2 (dome support) in 23 hips, and type 3 (footings) in 17 hips, with 5 hips having combined configurations. RESULTS All hips showed evidence of union between the allograft and host bone at latest follow-up, 14 hips had partial resorption of the allograft that did not affect cup stability. Three acetabular components demonstrated failure of ingrowth. Survivorship-free from radiographic acetabular loosening as end point was 94% at 5 years. The 5-year survivorship with revision for any reason as end point was 90%. CONCLUSION Trabecular metal shells combined with structural bone allograft in revision THA demonstrate excellent midterm survival, with 94% of acetabular components obtaining stable union onto host bone at 5 years. Allograft restored bone stock with minimal resorption, and when it occurred did not alter the survivorship of the acetabular component.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The previous studies have not reached on consensus as to the outcome of acetabular reconstruction with autogenous bone graft for dysplastic hips, especially in severe cases such as Crowe type IV. The current study aimed to determine the survivorship of the arthroplasty and the grafts as well as the change of hip joint center averagely 9.8 years (range, 5-19) after cementless total hip arthroplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 52 cases including 19 cases of complete hip dislocation of which acetabular defects were augmented with autogenous bone grafts taken from the resected femoral heads. For radiographic evaluation, in addition to checking failures of THA, acetabular coverages of the grafts as well as lateral center-edge angles were measured and compared between two time points, immediately postoperative and the final evaluations. Those outcomes were also analyzed according to the degree of hip dysplasia, grouping the subjects by Crowe classification. Translations of the reconstructed hip joint center after THA were measured and checked if they affected clinical outcomes or caused any complications. To assess clinically, Harris hip score and visualized analogue pain scale were reviewed. RESULTS Mean coverage ratio of the sockets with the grafts was 28.4% immediately after the surgery (range, 11.1%-65.0%) and 27.2% at the final follow-up (range, 11.1%-63.6%). When comparing high grade dysplasia (Crowe type III, IV) to low grade dysplasia (Crowe type I, II), there was no significant difference of the above outcomes (p = 0.476). As to the location of hip joint center, 14 outliers were located distally within the normal horizontal range especially in cases with Crowe type IV. Those outliers showed no difference on clinical outcome. The mean HHS was 52.2 (range, 19-87) and VAS was 7.2 (range, 5-9) preoperatively, each of which was improved to 92.9 (range, 63-100) and 1.4 (range, 0-4) postoperatively. No failures were experienced during the study period. CONCLUSIONS Acetabular augmentation using autogenous bone graft from the resected femoral head is found to be a successful method for dysplastic hip, even in severe cases such as Crowe type IV, showing favorable results in more than 8 years. When inevitable, a degree of compromise on hip joint center can be needed in dealing with severe hip dysplasia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to identify the long-term durability of the Kerboull-type reinforcement device (KT plate) in acetabular reconstruction for massive bone defects, assessing the remodeling of structural bone grafts. METHODS This study retrospectively evaluated 106 hips that underwent acetabular reconstruction using a KT plate between November 2000 and December 2010. Thirty-eight primary total hip arthoplasties (THAs) and 68 revised THAs were performed, and the mean duration of clinical follow-up was 8 years (5-14 years). Regarding reconstructing the acetabular bone defects, autografts were used in 37 hips, allografts in 68 hips, and A-W glass ceramics in 2 hips. RESULTS One hip exhibited radiological migration and no revision for aseptic loosening. The mean Merle d'Aubigné Clinical Score improved from 7.5 points (4-12 points) preoperatively to 10.9 points (9-18 points) at the last follow-up. The Kaplan-Meier survival rate for radiological migration of primary and revised THAs at 10 years was 100% and 97% (95% confidence interval: 96%-100%), respectively. Bone remodeling was evaluated using the radiological demarcation at the bone-to-bone interface, and an improvement of 100% in primary THAs and 94% in revised THAs was observed. CONCLUSION For massive bone defects, acetabular reconstruction using the KT plate with a structural bone grafting can yield successful results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetabular bone deficiency, especially proximal and lateral deficiency, is a difficult technical problem during primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). We report a new reconstruction method using a medial-reduced cemented socket and additional bulk bone in conjunction with impaction morselized bone grafting (additional bulk bone grafting method). QUESTIONS/PURPOSES In a population of patients with acetabular dysplasia undergoing THA using a medial-reduced cemented socket and additional bulk bone with impacted morselized bone grafting, we evaluated (1) the radiographic appearance of bone graft; (2) the proportion of cups that developed loosening and subsequent revision; and (3) clinical results (outcome scores and complications). METHODS Forty percent of 330 THAs for DDH performed at one center between 1999 and 2009 were defined as shallow dysplastic hips. The additional bulk bone grafting method was performed on 102 THAs with shallow acetabulum (31% for DDH) at one center between 1999 and 2009. We used this approach and technique for shallow acetabuli when a cup protruded from the lateral acetabular edge in preoperative templating. The other 132 dysplastic hips without bone grafting had THA performed at the same periods and served as a control. Acetabuli were defined as shallow when the depth was less than or equal to one-fifth of the pelvic height (cranial-caudal length on radiograph). The additional bulk bone grafting technique was as follows: the resected femoral head was sectioned at 1 to 2 cm thickness, and a suitable size of the bulk bone graft was placed on the lateral iliac cortex and fixed by poly-L-lactate absorbable screws. Autologous impaction morselized bone grafting, with or without hydroxyapatite granules, was performed along with the implantation of a medial-reduced cemented socket. We defined an "incorporated" graft as remodeling and trabeculation including rounding off of the protruding edge of a graft beyond the socket. Radiographic criteria used for determining loosening were migration or a continuous radiolucent zone between the prosthesis/bone cement and host bone. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and the Merle d'Aubigne and Postel score; complications were tallied from chart review. The followup was 10 ± 3 years (range, 6-15 years). RESULTS One acetabular component (1%) with severe shallow and steep acetabuli showed definite radiographic evidence of loosening and was revised. Clinically, the mean JOA score for the hips treated with additional bulk bone grafting THA in this study improved from 39 ± 10 points preoperatively to 95 ± 5 points postoperatively (p < 0.05, paired t-test). The mean Merle d'Aubigne and Postel score for the hips improved from 7 ± 2 points to 17 ± 1 points (p < 0.05, paired t-test). Complications included a Trendelenburg sign in one hip, dislocation in one, and transient partial sciatic nerve palsy in one. Within 3 years 6 months postoperatively, 101 of 102 additional bulk bone grafting cases showed successful bone remodeling and bone graft reorientation without collapse on radiographs. Partial resorption of the additional bone graft on the lateral side was observed in two hips (2%) with socket abduction angles of < 35°. CONCLUSIONS Achieving stable acetabular fixation is often challenging in the dysplastic hip, especially shallow acetabulum, and a variety of techniques have been described. Early results of combining bulk graft with impaction of morselized graft are promising. Although each surgical technique was well established, further investigation for clinical results of a combination of these techniques might be necessary to confirm longer term outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study.

Custom Acetabular Cages Offer Stable Fixation and Improved Hip Scores for Revision THA With Severe Bone Defects. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2016; 474:731-40. [PMID: 26467611 PMCID: PMC4746190 DOI: 10.1007/s11999-015-4587-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2015] [Accepted: 10/02/2015] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Revision THA is particularly challenging in hips with severe acetabular bone loss. When the extent or geometry of the acetabular bone loss precludes more-straightforward techniques such as jumbo hemispheric cementless shells, reconstruction with morselized allograft protected by a custom cage may offer an alternative, but, to our knowledge, few series have reported on results with this approach. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES For patients with severe (Paprosky IIIB) defects, we asked: do individualized custom cages result in (1) improved Harris hip scores; (2) restoration of hip center; and (3) a low incidence of surgical complications? METHODS Twenty-six patients (26 hips) with a massive acetabular defect were involved in this study from 2003 to 2013. During this period, one patient was lost to followup and one died, leaving 24 patients (eight males, 16 females) in this retrospective analysis. The customized cages were individualized to each patient's bone defect based on rapid-prototype three-dimensional printed models. Mean followup was 67 months (range, 24-120 months). Harris hip scores were assessed before surgery and at each followup. Postoperative radiographs were evaluated for cage position, migration, and graft incorporation. Complications and reoperations were assessed by chart review. RESULTS The mean Harris hip score improved from 36 (SD, 8; range, 20-49) to 82 (SD, 18; range, 60-96) (p < 0.001). Individualized custom cages resulted in generally reliable restoration of the hip center. No rerevisions have been performed. None of the cups showed radiographic migration, but one cage was believed to be loose, based on a circumferential 2-mm radiolucent line. Cancellous allografts appeared to be incorporated in 23 of 24 patients. One deep infection and one superficial infection were observed and treated with irrigation, débridement, and vacuum-sealing drainage. One dislocation and one suspected injury of the superior gluteal nerve also were observed and treated conservatively. CONCLUSIONS Individualized custom cages using rapid prototyping and three-dimensional printing appeared to provide stable fixation and improved hip scores at short-term followup in this small, single-center series. As further improvements in the design and manufacturing process are made, future studies should evaluate larger patient groups for longer times, and, ideally, compare this approach with alternatives for these complex bone defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The durability of uncalcined and unsintered hydroxyapatite-poly-l-lactide composite screws is unclear when used for the fixation of acetabular bone graft in total hip arthroplasty under full-weight conditions. We have used this type of screw for the fixation of acetabular bone graft in cemented or reverse-hybrid total hip arthroplasty since 2003. Hence, we conducted a follow-up study to assess the safety and efficacy of these screws when used for cemented socket fixation. METHODS In this study, 98 patients (106 cases) who underwent fixation of acetabular bone graft in cemented or reverse-hybrid total hip arthroplasty using hydroxyapatite-poly-l-lactide composite screws were followed up for over 5 years and evaluated clinically and radiographically. The patient population comprised 10 men and 88 women with a mean age of 60.3 years (range, 41-81 years) at the time of surgery. The original diagnosis for primary total hip arthroplasty was secondary osteoarthritis in 97 cases and high hip dislocation in nine cases. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 7.6 years (range, 5-11 years). No patient in this series required revision surgery, and no radiographical loosening occurred during the follow-up period. The mean Japanese Orthopaedic Association score improved from 48 (range, 7-73) preoperatively to 87 (range, 50-100) at the final follow-up. Radiographically bone graft consolidation was confirmed in all cases, and no apparent osteolysis around the cemented socket or composite screws was detected. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses with socket revision surgery for any reason, socket loosening, and appearance of a radiolucent line >1 mm in any zone as the endpoints yielded survival rates of 100%, 100%, and 86.8% at 5 years, and 100%, 100%, and 81.0% at 10 years, respectively. CONCLUSION This absorbable screw seems to have no negative effects on the mid-term clinical results of cemented socket fixation.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of this retrospective study were to firstly introduce three practical bulk bone graft techniques based on acetabular morphology for dysplasia and secondly evaluate the long-term durability of acetabular reconstruction using those techniques combined with cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS The study comprised 101 consecutive THAs with a minimum follow-up of ten years; these procedures were categorised as being L shape (n = 58), Wall (n = 33) and D shape (n = 10) types. RESULTS At the last follow-up, all bone grafts acquired trabecular reorientation, and no evidence of revision for aseptic or radiological loosening was noted. CONCLUSIONS These bone graft techniques will be effective for improving the management of dysplasia in cemented THA by providing both acetabular reconstruction and cement containment.

Abstract
This study details a method using rapid prototyping (RP) technique to assist in acetabular revision with complex bone defects. Hemi-pelvic RP models were built among 25 patients with complex acetabular bone defects. Each patient was scheduled to undergo revision using either commercially available or customized cages based on individualized RP models. Average follow-up was 4.4 years (range, 1 to 9 years). The average Harris hip score was 36.1 (range, 20 to 58) preoperatively and reached an average of 82.6 (range, 60-96) at the last follow-up. No mechanical failure or loosening was observed. One patient experienced hip dislocation 4 days postoperatively. The resultant findings of this study merit consideration of RP as a helpful clinical complement for dealing with some complex bone defect of acetabulum.

Abstract
Autogenous impaction grafting was performed to improve acetabular cup coverage in 68 patients (78 hips) with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) after total hip arthroplasty, and the patients were then monitored for a mean duration of 5.5years. No cup revisions were required, and there was no radiographic loosening. The host-graft interface became indistinct by 6weeks after surgery, trabecular bone formation was seen by 12weeks, and definite trabecular reorientation was seen by 20months. At the last follow-up examination, the mean cup coverage was 97.7%, whereas mean coverage by bone grafting was 27.9%. Among 12 patients with most of the bone graft placed at the absolutely protruded area of the cup, the cup coverage provided by the bone graft decreased from 95.4% immediately after surgery to 20.7% by the final follow-up examination. Bone-particle grafting can provide a satisfactory integration speed and a low incidence of displacement and ectopic ossification.

Abstract
Superolateral acetabular bone defect is a serious challenge in uncemented total hip arthroplasty for acetabular dysplasia. We report a bulk bone autografting technique without decortication of the acetabulum and femoral head contact surfaces in 22 joints. Mean follow-up time was 8.3 years, and survival rates were 100% for loosening and revision end points. The preoperative Japanese orthopedic association hip score increased from 49.5 to 94.0. Although trabecular bridging and graft remodeling occurred in all cases, complete trabecular reorientation was observed in only 15 joints. Eccentric polyethylene wear was observed in 8 of 22 joints, and osteolysis, in 1 joint. Our technique is easy to perform, and midterm results were favorable; thus, we conclude that it may be an effective option for bulk bone autografting.

Abstract
We evaluated the fate of bulk femoral head autograft in cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) for developmental hip dysplasia. Of 87 hips (80 patients) studied, 37 hips (32 patients) were available for follow-up at a mean of 18.5 years (range, 15-24 years) postoperatively. The mean age of these 32 patients at the index procedure was 53.8 years (range, 40-65 years). The initial diagnosis was osteoarthritis in all 32 patients. The degree of acetabular dysplasia according to Crowe classification was type I in 18 hips (48.6%), type II in 14 (37.8%), type III in 5 (13.5%). The mean percentage of horizontal coverage of the acetabular components with graft bone was 34% (range, 25%-45%). Trabecular bridging across the graft-host interface was seen at a mean of 4 months (range, 2-6 months) postoperatively. Trabecular reorientation of the grafted bone was seen in all hips at a mean of 27 months (range, 12-36 months) postoperatively. There was no evidence of collapse and bony resorption of the grafted bone in the weight-bearing portion. Acetabular component fixation was stable in all hips at final follow-up. Of the 37 hips (32 patients), 2 acetabular components required revision: 1 for a late postoperative deep infection and 1 for dissociation of the polyethylene liner. The survival rate was 94.5% (95% confidence interval, 91.3-96.5) for the acetabular component at 18.5 years of follow-up. This study found that bulk femoral head autograft in cementless THA for developmental hip dysplasia produces excellent long-term results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaction bone grafting has been used for acetabular reconstruction in revision surgery. However, most series do not establish differences in survival in revisions with differing severity of bone loss. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We therefore determined (1) the survival rate for rerevision associated with varying degrees of bone loss; (2) the frequency with which bone graft resorption occurred; and (3) whether the reconstruction restored the anatomic center of rotation of the hip. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 165 patients (181 hips) who underwent rerevision for major bone loss. Using the classification of Paprosky et al. 98 hips had a Grade 3A defect and 83 a Grade 3B. We determined survival rates for revision and graft resorption. Cup position was determined measuring vertical and horizontal positions and the distance from the center of the prosthetic femoral head to the normal center of rotation of the hip in both groups according to Ranawat. The minimum followup until rerevision or the latest evaluation was 0.3 years months (mean, 7.5 years; range, 0.3-17.7 years). RESULTS The survival rate for revision at 8 years was 84% (95% confidence interval: 61-100) for Grade 3A and 82% (95% confidence interval: 68-100) for Grade 3B. Twelve hips were rerevised. Seventeen grafts showed bone resorption. Acetabular cup position was anatomically restored in both Grades 3A and 3B. CONCLUSIONS The midterm results for impacted bone allograft and cemented all-polyethylene cups were similar in both Grade 3A and Grade 3B hips. Acetabular reconstruction allows anatomic positioning of the cups and is associated with a low rate of rerevision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficient acetabula associated with acetabular dysplasia cause difficulty achieving adequate coverage of the acetabular component during THA. Autografting with the removed femoral head has been used for several decades to achieve better coverage, but the long-term benefits of this technique remain controversial, with some series reporting high rates of graft resorption and collapse. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We evaluated the fate of bulk femoral head autograft for acetabular reconstruction in cementless THA for developmental hip dysplasia. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 70 patients (83 hips) (68 women, two men) with a mean age of 57 years at index surgery. According to the classification of Crowe et al. for hip dysplasia, 10 hips were classified as Type I, 45 as Type II, 19 as Type III, and nine as Type IV. Minimum followup was 9 years (mean, 11 years; range, 9-14 years). RESULTS We observed no collapsed grafts. In all patients we observed disappearance of the host-graft interface and appearance of radiodense bands in the grafts bridging host iliac bone and at the lateral edges of the acetabular sockets; remodeling with definite trabecular reorientation was seen in 90%. The 10-year survival rate without acetabular revision for any reason was 94%. The mean Merle d'Aubigné and Postel hip score improved from a mean of 9.1 preoperatively to 17.2 at last followup. CONCLUSIONS Cementless THA combined with autologous femoral bone graft in patients with developmental dysplasia resulted in a high rate of survival. Structural bone grafting achieved a stable construct until osseointegration occurred. We believe the radiodense bands represent a radiographic sign of successful completion of repair of the deficient acetabulum. Congruous and stable contact of the cancellous portion of the graft to the host bed by impaction and use of improved porous cementless sockets may be associated with successful socket survival. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
We conducted a retrospective study of the placement of porous-coated acetabular components using screws at more than 20 mm above the teardrop without structural bone graft for dysplastic hips to determine long-term outcome. Thirty hips (29 patients) were monitored for a mean of 15.2 years (range, 10.4-18.3 years) after surgery. Compared with 12 contralateral normal hips, the distance of the hip center from the teardrop was significantly high (26.8 +/- 4.8 and 13.4 +/- 2.7 mm P < .001); however, it was not laterally different (31. 5 +/- 5.1 and 31.7 +/- 5.0 mm). No acetabular components showed loosening. One metal shell was revised for wear and osteolysis. Morselized bone grafted in 25 hips was incorporated in all cases. Slight elevation of the hip center without lateralization in cementless cups fixed with screws was well tolerated for dysplastic hips.

Abstract
Impaction bone grafting techniques are useful when the orthopaedic surgeon is faced with large cavitary acetabular defects or a large ectatic femoral metaphysis or diaphysis. Impaction bone grafting of the acetabulum involves packing of cavitary defects with compressed particulate graft, followed by insertion of either a cemented or cementless acetabular component. Impaction grafting of the femur involves retrograde filling of the femoral canal with impacted particulate graft, creating a neomedullary canal into which a cemented femoral stem can be placed. Use of the impaction allografting technique is appealing, especially in young patients, because of its potential to restore bone stock. The technically demanding nature of the procedure, the risk of complications, and the unknown long-term fate of the impacted allograft highlight the need for ongoing assessment of this technique for revision total hip arthroplasties.

Abstract
We describe a technique of hemi-circumferential interposition grafting that allows placement of the cup in the anatomical position of the original acetabulum in the rare cases of post-Perthes or Perthes-like deformities of the femoral head combined with a steep and shallow acetabulum. This technique was performed on 10 hips (9 patients, with an average age of 56 years). One revision was performed for septic loosening after 2.1 years; however, the graft was well integrated and provided sufficient support for the revision cup. All the others had a good clinical and radiological result after an average of 11.4 years with an average Harris Hip Score of 97. The authors have found this an easy-to-use method, which can give an excellent, long-lasting result. It also provides important bone stock for possible subsequent revisions.;

Abstract
This prospective study analyzed the clinical and radiological results of 140 consecutive cases of acetabular revision using large frozen femoral head allografts and cemented all-polyethylene acetabular components. Mean follow-up was 10 years (range: 5-16 years). Thirty patients died, seven were lost to follow-up, and 26 had failed and undergone further surgery. Nineteen failures were due to aseptic failure and collapse of the graft. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis calculated a mean survival at 10 years of 88.5% for revision for any reason. We compared all reported techniques of acetabular reconstruction for similar defects and recommend a surgical strategy based on the available evidence, but weighted towards a preference to reconstitute bone stock rather than removing further bone in the revision situation.

Abstract
In acetabular dysplasia, more vertical orientation of the acetabular component is often used to minimize the superolateral bone grafting. This study was designed to determine the effects of vertical orientation of the cup on the stability and polyethylene wear of the acetabular component in uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). Three-dimensional finite element models of the hemipelvis with dysplastic acetabulum were developed. Metal-backed hemispherical cups were placed in the true acetabulum with abduction angles of 35, 45, 55, and 65 degrees. It was found that more vertical orientation of the cup was associated with larger relative motion of the metal shell between the acetabulum and metal shell. Furthermore, tilting and torsional shear stresses in the model of the cup abduction angle of 65 degrees were found to be 1.7 times larger than that in the model with 35 degrees at the bone-metal shell interface. More vertically oriented cups caused larger contact stresses at the articulating surfaces of the polyethylene liners. The results suggest that the abduction angle of the acetabular component significantly influences cup loosening and polyethylene wear in THA.

Abstract
Reliable ingrowth of bone into porous-coated cementless total hip components can be expected in primary surgery. In the revision scenario, however, bone deficiency frequently is encountered and the remaining bone may have less ingrowth potential. Allograft bone and bone graft substitutes may be successful in healing bone defects, but have virtually no capacity to induce bone growth from the defect into the porous surface. To evaluate the role osteoinductive bone proteins may play in enhancing bone ingrowth, six canines had bilateral total hip arthroplasties with a cementless press-fit porous-coated acetabular component. A defect 8 mm in diameter and 5 mm in depth was created in the superior weightbearing area of each acetabulum. One defect in each animal was filled with recombinant human osteogenic protein-1. Each contralateral defect was filled with allograft bone, left empty (defect healing control), or no defect was created (intact) to serve as a control for ideal conditions for bone ingrowth. The osteogenic protein-treated defects healed more completely than allograft bone-treated or empty defects and achieved a bone density equivalent to the intact acetabulum. Bone ingrowth also occurred to a significantly higher degree in the osteogenic protein group compared with the allograft or empty defects achieving a degree of ingrowth equivalent to the intact acetabulum controls. The osteogenic bone protein was successful in achieving complete defect healing and inducing extensive ingrowth from the defect into the adjacent porous coating.

Abstract
We radiographically investigated 36 hips in 34 patients with osteoarthritis of the hip who had undergone total hip arthroplasty. Their mean age was 59.2 years (range 36-79 years), and the mean follow-up period was 11.2 years (range 10-14 years). The long-term outcome and the chronological changes in the bulk autograft were examined. The acetabular component of the prosthesis was a Lord-type threaded cup with a smooth surface. At follow-up, bone absorption was minor in 17 joints, moderate in 11, and major in 8. The hips with graft coverage of >==20% (group A) had a significantly higher loosening rate than hips with coverage of <<20% (group B) ( P << 0.05). The cup position changed markedly in group A. Our findings indicate that graft coverage should be less than 20% when a bulk graft is used together with a smooth-surfaced cementless cup.

Abstract
We retrospectively reviewed the use of impaction bone grafting with cement for the fixation of femoral and acetabular components in revision hip arthroplasty. Seventy hips formed the basis of the study, with a mean follow-up time of 37 months. Sixty-eight percent of the femurs showed severe bone loss (Endoklinik grades 3 and 4). The mean Harris hip and Merle D'Aubigne Postel scores were 84 and 15.4, respectively. Massive subsidence occurred in only one femoral revision (>10 mm) and cup migration >5 mm in 6 cases. Loosening was seen in 1 revision for sepsis but none for aseptic loosening. Five complications were identified that were related to the surgical technique. We therefore support the use of this technique in revision surgery in patients with extensive bone loss.

Abstract
We evaluated the results of femoral impaction grafting with the Exeter stem (Stryker Howmedica Osteonics, Newbury, UK) and irradiated bone-graft. We followed 57 hips for an average of 27 months. Endo-Klinik grading showed 8 grade 1, 22 grade 2, and 27 grade 3 hips. Radiographic analysis revealed cortical repair in 34% and graft incorporation in 39% but no evidence of trabecular remodeling. Moderate subsidence (5-10 mm) occurred in 7 patients (12.5%), and massive subsidence (>10 mm) occurred in 4 patients (7%). Complications included 6 dislocations, 3 periprosthetic fractures, and 2 stem revisions. Impaction grafting with the Exeter system produces satisfactory results for most patients, but a few hips perform poorly, and the reasons for this are unclear. We have concerns about irradiated bone-graft because the characteristic changes of graft remodeling are not seen.

Abstract
In revision surgery of the acetabulum bone defects can be filled with impacted human morsellized bone grafts. Because of a worldwide limited availability of human bone, alternatives are being considered. In this study we compared the initial stability of acetabular cups after reconstructing a cavitary defect with various compositions of impacted tricalciumphosphate-hydroxyapatite (TCP/HA) particles and mixes of TCP/HA particles and human grafts in a realistic acetabulum model. Primary cemented cups and reconstructions with impacted human cancellous grafts were used as reference. A dynamic load displaced the acetabular cups superomedially. The primary cemented cups showed the highest stability. The cups with impacted human grafts produced the most displacement. All reconstructions with the TCP/HA particles showed a high stability of the cups. However, especially when using large TCP/HA particles this was probably due to a large amount of cement penetration. Mixing TCP/HA particles with human grafts seemed to decrease cement penetration. although still a high stability was obtained. In this perspective, we concluded that TCP/HA particles might be useful as a bone graft extender in the reconstruction of acetabular bone defects.

Abstract
Acetabular reconstruction with severe bone loss after failed total hip arthroplasty is a difficult problem. Defects were defined as major segmental and cavitary loss (type III anterior or posterior) or pelvic discontinuity (type IV). Seventeen cases were treated, of which 7 were type III and 10 were type IV. Bulk allograft was used in 16 of 17 cases, of which 7 were whole acetabular grafts, 2 were posterior segmental acetabular grafts, and 7 were femoral heads. Fourteen of 17 patients were female. The extensile triradiate approach was used in 12 cases. Long pelvic bone plates were applied to the posterior column and anterior brim of the pelvis in most cases. Allografts united to host-bone in 15 cases. Average follow-up was 83 months. The overall revision rate was 47%, of which 3 of 7 press-fit and 2 of 10 cemented cups had failed. The dislocation rate for the extensile approach was 50%; 2 patients had excisional arthroplasty for infection, and 2 patients had exploration of the sciatic nerve for release from migrating pelvic plate screws. Because of the overall poor results, this approach cannot be recommended for general use.

Abstract
There are numerous indications for the use of cancellous allograft bone in the context of revision hip arthroplasty. These indications range from the well-documented use of morselized bone chips to fill cavitary defects during cementless acetabular reconstructions--in which complete or near-complete graft remodeling is expected--to the use of particulate allografting with bipolar hemiarthroplasty for acetabular revision, which largely has been abandoned because of frequent component migration, graft resorption, and clinical failure. Most other indications, including femoral and acetabular impaction allografting techniques, curettage of osteolytic defects with component retention, and complex reconstructions using acetabular reconstruction rings or cages with cancellous donor bone, are controversial but are supported by published clinical series. The current study reviews the literature on cancellous allografting in revision total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Between 1986 and 1991, 65 cementless hemispherical acetabular cups were implanted in 60 patients in revision surgery. Different designs were used, including PCA (29 cups), Duraloc (14 cups), Harris-Galante (12 cups), and Omnifit (10 cups). The mean age of patients was 54.7 years. The Paprosky types of the acetabular tone defects were type 1, 2 hips; type 2, 38 hips; type 3A, 15 hips; and type 3B, 10 hips. For unrevised hips, the mean follow-up was 8.3 years (range, 6-11 years). Bone allografts were used in 56 hips: Morcellized cancellous graft was used in 42 hips, structural graft for contained defects was used in 7 hips, and structural graft for uncontained defects was used in 7 hips. There were poor clinical results in 14 hips (22%). Re-revision was necessary in 7 hips (10.8%). There was definite radiographic loosening in 18 hips and possible loosening in 4 hips. Screw failure occurred in 6 hips, and a radiolucency in 1 or more DeLee-Charnley zones was apparent in 45 hips (69.2%). Moderate or severe graft resorption were found in 4 of the 42 morcellized grafts, in 6 of the 7 structural grafts for uncontained defects, and in all 7 of the 7 structural grafts for contained defects. The best results were obtained in hips with a bone defect of less than 30%. The use of a cementless acetabular cup supplemented with screws is contraindicated in hips with a bone defect greater than 50%. Hip reconstruction using structural bone-graft to stabilize the prosthesis gives the worst results.

Abstract
From 1987 to 1991, a total of 43 acetabular revisions were performed in 39 patients aged 36 to 79 years. In group A (26 revisions in 24 patients), morselized allograft was used to fill in cavitary acetabular defects, and in group B (17 revisions in 15 patients), a solid (bulk) allograft was used to reconstruct defects of the acetabular rim, mainly superiorly. An uncemented acetabular cup was used in all cases. Follow-up ranged from 4 to 7 years. Results demonstrated that while large structural or morselized allografts are useful in reconstructing the anatomy, there is a high rate of loosening due to resorption. The failure rate of bulk graft was higher than that of morselized graft, but because the bone stock in failures is usually restored, a second revision is easier.

Abstract
Loosening of total hip replacements is often associated with severe loss of periprosthetic bone. The notion exists that the remaining bone is sclerotic, avascular, and displays little osteogenic activity, and that it therefore potentially compromises the revitalization of bone grafts used to restore bony defects. To verify this opinion we studied the bone characteristics in acetabular bone biopsies taken at primary total hip arthroplasty (PTH) and revision total hip arthroplasty (RTH) for a cemented PTH. In 6 PTH patients and in 10 RTH patients, acetabular bone biopsies were taken from the roof, the center, and the lower rim of each acetabulum. Specimens were evaluated by light microscopy and histomorphometrically measured for specimen size, bone area, perimeter, active osteoid perimeter, number of vessels, and osteoclasts. The vascularity and vitality appeared to be comparable in the RTH and PTH bone biopsies. However, the trabecular organization of the RTH bone differed from that of the PTH biopsies. In the PTH biopsies, the trabeculae were running perpendicular to the subchondral bone layer, whereas in the RTH biopsies the layers of bone were oriented parallel to the implant surface. There was abundant remodeling activity in the RTH bone, with large quantities of active osteoid and osteoclasts. These histologic parameters differed, but not statistically significant, from the PTH biopsies. In conclusion, we found that at revision, the acetabular bone was viable with sufficient vascularity and remodeling activity to provide an acceptable recipient host bone bed for revision surgery combined with bone grafting.

Abstract
The clinical and radiologic results of an inclusive series of 60 patients (70 hips) who had primary total hip arthroplasty using the porous-coated anatomic (PCA) midstem femoral prosthesis was prospectively studied. The midstem component features a proximal circumferential porous bead coating similar to the PCA primary stem; but increased proximal thickness, increased length, and a distal anterior curve for additional rotational stability. The mean Harris Hip Score rose from 39.5 points before surgery to 91.3 points at a minimum follow-up of 5 years (average, 69 months); 88% were good or excellent. Moderate or severe thigh pain on a visual analogue scale was reported by 30% of cases, and was more common in women. Radiographic analysis indicated preservation of proximal bone stock and bony ingrowth in 87%, but stem subsidence in 9%. One stem has been revised for subsidence and thigh pain (1.4%), and one stem is radiographically loose, but the patient refuses surgical revision. Endosteal osteolysis was rarely seen (2.8%) and was benign in appearance. Acetabular components used included 63 nonmodular PCA metal-backed cups and 7 hemispherical porous ingrowth cups fixed with screws. One PCA cup was revised for loosening (1.4%), and one is radiographically loose but stable (1.4%). Only one cup exhibited an area of osteolysis. At this intermediate follow-up the clinical outcome of the midstem component is stable and excellent. The radiographic results appear superior to the PCA primary stem, with a lower incidence of stem subsidence and osteolysis. The prevalence of thigh pain is a concern and we recommend regular follow-up of patients with the midstem femoral implant, and the use of a visual analogue thigh pain scale when any femoral prosthesis is evaluated.

Abstract
PURPOSE The reconstruction of severe acetabular defects, caused by failed hip prostheses, is difficult and complex. Current radiographic descriptions of the defects are inadequate. We sought to more accurately describe remaining bone and improve surgical planning using 3D physical models based on CT data. METHOD Nineteen patients (20 hips) with failed total hip replacements and severe acetabular defects were selected. Plain radiography and CT were performed. Solid 3D physical models of each pelvis were constructed using the CT data. Bone loss in structurally important regions was measured from radiographs, models, and intraoperative observation. Comparisons were made of the radiograph-based and model-based bone loss measurements, surgical plans, and interobserver variability. RESULTS There was no statistical difference between the model-based measurements and the intraoperative measurements. Radiographs statistically underestimated bone loss by at least 20% (p < 0.01). Interobserver bone loss grading was poor for the radiograph-based measurements (kappa = 0.06) but was substantial for the model-based measurements (kappa = 0.73). In only half the cases was prosthesis type correctly selected based on radiographs. Model-based planning selected the correct prosthesis type in all cases. CONCLUSION The physical models were substantially more accurate than radiographs for measuring acetabular defects and for surgical planning.

Abstract
Acetabular reconstruction in both primary and revision hip arthroplasty often requires reconstruction of deficient acetabular bone stock. The exact role of allografts remains controversial. Published results of structural allografting are presented. Recent literature supports the use of segmental allografts for reconstruction of large segmental and combined defects.

Abstract
The failure rates of revision of acetabular components have been high; however, long-term success has been reported with the use of particulate allografts or autografts with large-diameter prosthetic cups to correct bone deficiencies when host-cup contact is at least 30% to 50%. The purpose of this study was to review 2- to 10-year follow-up data on complex acetabular revisions in which contact between allograft bone and the prosthetic cup was at least 50%. In the 47 hips monitored clinically and radiographically for a mean of 5 years, results were classified as excellent in 37%, good in 26%, fair in 17%, and poor in 19%. The mean Harris hip score was 82.5 (range, 39-100). The prosthetic cups migrated in 3 hips, but 2 stabilized within 1 year. Three cups had complete radiolucent lines without migration; the lines did not correlate with location of the allografts. Although bone ingrowth into porous surfaces from allografts is debatable, the results of the study show that massive allograft reconstruction of the acetabulum can provide both immediate and long-term stability of the prosthetic cup and restore bone stock.

Abstract
Acetabular reconstruction with bulk structural autogenous grafts and allografts from the femoral head in complex total hip arthroplasty was highly successful at an average of five years postoperatively but was much less so by 11.8 years. To assess the longer-term fate of such grafts, we reviewed the results of eighty-one consecutive total hip arthroplasties performed by the senior one of us with use of these grafts. Nine hips in nine patients who had died and two hips that were infected in two patients were excluded. Therefore seventy hips (sixty-two patients) were included in this study. The average duration of follow-up was 16.5 years (range, 14.1 to 21.4 years). Sixty-one arthroplasties were performed to treat various forms of congenital dysplasia. Fifteen arthroplasties, ten of which were revision operations, were performed with allograft, and fifty-five were performed with autogenous graft. The average age of the patients at the time of the index operation was 45.2 years (range, sixteen to sixty-nine years). All of the sockets, which had an average outer diameter of forty millimeters (range, thirty-four to fifty millimeters), were inserted with cement. The average coverage of the acetabular component by the bulk graft was 49 per cent (range, 15 to 100 per cent). All of the grafts united. At the latest follow-up examination, twenty-five acetabular components (36 per cent) had been revised for aseptic loosening, eighteen (26 per cent) had radiographic evidence of loosening, and twenty-seven (39 per cent) were rigidly fixed and in place. The average Harris hip score for the hips in which the implant remained rigidly fixed was 74 points, while that for the hips in which the implant was loose but had not been revised was 69 points. Nine of the fifteen acetabular components supported by allograft and sixteen (29 per cent) of the fifty-five supported by autogenous graft were revised (p = 0.03). However, the total rate of acetabular components that were either loose or revised was ten of fifteen and thirty-three (60 per cent) of fifty-five, respectively. This difference was not significant (p = 0.4), with the numbers available. Regression analysis revealed that a younger age at the time of the operation and the extent of coverage of the acetabular component by the graft were associated with the need for revision. Twenty-one (78 per cent) of the twenty-seven acetabular components that remained rigidly fixed were supported by graft over less than 50 per cent of the contact area, while only nine (36 per cent) of the twenty-five that were revised were so supported (p < 0.05). None of the nine acetabular components with 30 per cent of the contact area or less covered by graft were revised. In nineteen of the twenty-two revisions of the acetabular component performed after the index operation, the socket was inserted without cement; the average outer diameter of the socket was fifty-three millimeters (range, forty to fifty-eight millimeters). Both the structural autogenous grafts and the structural allografts used in acetabular reconstruction in total hip replacement functioned well for the initial five to ten years. By an average of 16.5 years, nine of the fifteen hips treated with allograft and sixteen (29 per cent) of the fifty-five treated with autogenous graft had been revised. The greater the extent of the coverage of the acetabular component by the graft, the greater the rate of late failure.

Abstract
A series of 29 shelf ( < 50% of the acetabulum) structural allografts were done in conjunction with acetabular revision with a minimum follow-up period of 5 years (average, 7.1 years). At the latest follow-up examination, 86% of the hips were successful both clinically and radiologically. Only four patients required further surgery, with two of these being revised with no additional grafts. The use of bulk allograft in conjunction with acetabular revision is supported, provided that at least 50% support of the cup can be obtained with host-bone. This type of reconstruction provides support for the cup and restores anatomy, leg length, and bone stock should future revision be necessary.

Abstract
Acetabuloplasty with solid autologous femoral head graft for the treatment of hip dysplasia is an established method which creates the contained cavity needed to accommodate the artificial cup. In order to evaluate the medium- and long-term results of this method using a cementless hemispheric cup, 34 patients (39 hips) operated on between 1979 and 1986 were clinically and radiologically reviewed. The minimal follow-up was 5 years (average 7.6 years). The Harris hip score increased from 36 points preoperatively to 89 points 1 year postoperatively and to 85.1 at the last follow-up. On roentgenographic evaluation, all grafts had been incorporated and appeared to have tolerated the mechanical loading well. Partial resorption of the graft occurred in 22 of the 39 hips, mainly in the lateral non-loaded zone. Twenty-nine of the 39 acetabular components showed migration, on average 4.2 mm cranially and 1.8 mm medially; 92% occurred during the first 2 years, and thereafter it was not progressive. Smaller cups migrated consistently more than larger cups. A significant correlation was found between cup migration and the degree of bone coverage of the cup, and extensive migration occurred in most cases with cup coverage by the host bone of less than 40%-50% of the weight-bearing surface of the cup. Only one acetabular component was altered significantly, and another appears to have become loose. The use of the normal-sized cups and cementless fixation medially in the primary acetabulum are thought to have contributed to our favorable mid- to long-term results.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
