Does the procedure achieve the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in the Oxford-12 score in more than 80% of cases? Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2024:103995. [PMID: 39278402 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2024.103995] [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: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several surgical options can be offered to manage iliopsoas impingement. Research published on cup replacements often concerns a small population size or multicentre studies, suggesting a variety of indications. We conducted a retrospective single centre study screening according to a specific protocol of a population of patients who had a cup replacement for iliopsoas impingement. The objectives were: 1) to specify the functional outcomes and the achievement of the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) and the Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) according to the Oxford-12 score, and 2) to assess the complication rate. HYPOTHESIS Our hypothesis was that acetabular replacements achieve a Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in more than 80% of cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-five hips underwent acetabular revision between 2011 and 2020. Forty-three were performed as first-line surgery, eight after failed tenotomy and four after failed anterior hip capsule thickening plasty. A CT scan of all the hips revealed a median overhang of 9 mm (7; 12) and a 7 ° cup anteversion (2; 19). Follow-up included assessment of the Oxford-12 score using MCID and PASS, the Merle d'Aubigné score, an assessment of hip flexion muscle strength using the Medical Research Council scale, and an assessment of satisfaction and complications. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 3 years (2-10), the difference in the Oxford score before and at follow-up was 18 points (15; 27) (p < 0.001), the median Medical Research Council score was 4.5 (4; 5) and patients were satisfied or very satisfied in 73% of cases (40/55). The MCID was achieved for 87% of the hips (48/55), and the PASS was achieved in 67% of cases (33/55). The rate of complications involving surgical revision was 10.9% (6/55) with respectively: two anterior dislocations, one early infection on day 10 resolved after wound irrigation and appropriate antibiotic therapy, one intraoperative fracture of the trochanter requiring osteosynthesis and one arthroscopic revision to remove a free cement fragment. CONCLUSION Due to a good functional outcome but a high complication rate, a cup replacement can be offered for iliopsoas impingement associated with acetabular malposition or significant overhang.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report 5-year outcomes of endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy in patients with iliopsoas tendinopathy following total hip arthroplasty (THA) and determine whether clinical scores are associated with cup position. METHODS Patients who underwent endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy for iliopsoas tendinopathy following THA (2014-2017) were contacted. Indications for endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy after THA were groin pain during active hip flexion, exclusion of other causes of groin pain, and no pain relief after 6 months of conservative treatment. Pretenotomy cup inclination and anteversion were measured on radiographs; axial and sagittal cup overhang were measured on computed tomography (CT) scans. Oxford hip score (OHS), modified Harris hip score (mHHS), and groin pain were assessed. RESULTS The initial cohort comprised 16 men (17 hips) and 31 women (32 hips), aged 60.7 ± 10.6 years. Cup inclination and anteversion were, respectively, 46.2 ± 6.2° and 14.6 ± 8.4°, while axial and sagittal cup overhang were, respectively, 4.4 ± 4.0 mm and 6.9 ± 4.5 mm. At ≥5 years follow-up, four hips underwent cup and stem revision, two underwent isolated cup revision and one underwent secondary iliopsoas tenotomy. OHS improved by 23 ± 10 and mHHS improved by 31 ± 16. Posttenotomy groin pain was slight in 20.0%, mild in 17.5% and moderate in 12.5%. Regression analyses revealed that net change in mHHS decreased with sagittal cup overhang (β = -3.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] = -4.6 to -1.7; p < 0.001), but that there were no associations between cup position and net change in OHS. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy provides good mid-term clinical outcomes in patients with iliopsoas tendinopathy following THA. Furthermore, improvements in mHHS were found to decrease with increasing sagittal cup overhang, in cases for which adequate preoperative imaging was available. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV.

Abstract
PURPOSE Discrepancy between the morphology of the acetabular margin and the design of hemispheric acetabular cups used in total hip arthroplasty may produce postoperative hip pain due to an iliopsoas impingement at the iliopsoas notch. This study aimed to determine the anatomical features of the iliopsoas notch in the Central European sample, and to test whether the morphology of the proximal femur affects the size of the iliopsoas notch. METHODS The sample was composed of 40 matched pairs of dry hip bones and corresponding femora. The depth and length of the iliopsoas notch were measured and correlated with the available demographic data. The anthropometric parameters of the proximal femur were calculated using image-analysis software, and their association with the measurements of the iliopsoas notch was tested. RESULTS The iliopsoas notch was present in all specimens and featured four morphological configurations: curved (61.3%), angular (16.2%), irregular (16.2%), and straight (6.3%). Its size was found to be larger in males (P = 0.014 for depth, P < 0.001 for length). No significant difference existed between the sides. The height and age of the specimens did not correlate with the size of the iliopsoas notch. Furthermore, neither the femoral neck version, the lesser trochanteric version, nor the angle between the neck of the femur and the lesser trochanter influenced the dimensions of the iliopsoas notch. CONCLUSION The iliopsoas notch is a consistent landmark of the acetabulum, although its anatomical appearance is widely variable. The iliopsoas notch arrangement cannot be predicted perioperatively based on the morphology of the proximal femur. The various shapes and sex-related differences detected in this study could be used for designing new hip implants or could be utilized during cup positioning in total hip arthroplasty.

Arthroplast Today 2023; 24:101241. [PMID: 38023650 PMCID: PMC10661692 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2023.101241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Dual-mobility (DM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) combines the stabilization advantage provided by large head articulation with the low friction advantage provided by small head articulation. There is momentum for DM to be used in a wider selection of patients, with some advocating for DM to be the routine primary total hip construct. Further investigation is needed to determine whether the use of DM in younger adults is validated by aggregate data. Our objective was to review the literature for the clinical performance of DM THA in patients aged 55 years and younger. Methods A systematic review of the literature was performed according to the guidelines of Preferred Reporting in Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. Inclusion in the review required clinical outcome reporting for DM primary THA in ambulatory patients aged 55 years or younger. The risk of bias was appraised using the Cochrane risk of bias in nonrandomized studies of interventions and the quality of the evidence was appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework. Results Across a sample of 1048 cases, the frequency weighted term of follow-up was 87.7 months. The pooled rate of revision was 9.5%. The Harris Hip Score significantly improved from 49.1 preoperatively to 93 postoperatively. The Postel-Merle d'Aubigné score significantly improved from 10.5 preoperatively to 17.1 postoperatively. Conclusions The literature demonstrates satisfactory short-term outcomes with a mitigated risk of dislocation for DM used as primary THA in patients aged 55 years and younger. The current findings suggest that third-generation designs provide reduced rates of intraprosthetic dislocation and improved survivorship.

The Anterior Position of the Hip Center of Rotation Is Related to Anterior Cup Protrusion Length and Symptomatic Iliopsoas Impingement in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2023; 38:2366-2372. [PMID: 37271227 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.05.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Iliopsoas impingement (IPI) is an important complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and anterior cup protrusion is believed to be its main cause; however, the relationship between the hip center of rotation (COR) and symptomatic IPI or cup protrusion remains poorly understood. Therefore, the present study investigated these relationships. METHODS The medical records of 138 patients who underwent unilateral primary THA were retrospectively reviewed. There were 8 patients (5.8%) who had symptomatic IPI. The COR and cup protrusion length measured with 2 methods were assessed on computed tomography. Risk factors for symptomatic IPI and the relationship between the COR and protrusion length were evaluated. RESULTS Logistic regression analyses showed that anteroposterior position of the COR, sagittal cup protrusion length (SCPL) at the COR, and both axial and SCPLs at the most anterior margin of the cup were related to symptomatic IPI. Multivariable regression analyses showed that acetabular offset was related to axial protrusion length at the COR, and anteroposterior position of the COR was related to both axial and sagittal protrusion lengths at the most anterior margin of the cup. CONCLUSION Anterior position of the cup was related to symptomatic IPI and both axial and sagittal protrusion lengths at the most anterior margin of the cup. Anterior reaming and cup protrusion should be avoided as much as possible to prevent symptomatic IPI.

Cup Overhanging in Anatomic Socket Position or High Hip Center of Rotation in Total Hip Arthroplasty for Crowe III and IV Dysplasia: A CT-Based Simulation. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12020606. [PMID: 36675535 PMCID: PMC9862580 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12020606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Cup overhanging in total hip arthroplasty is a predisposing factor to iliopsoas impingement. In dysplastic hips, cup implantation was simulated in an anatomic hip center of rotation (AHCR) and in high hip center (HHCR). We sought to assess: (1) the percentage of prominent cups; (2) quantify the cup protrusion at different sites on frontal, axial and sagittal views. In 40 Crowe III-IV hips, using a 3D CT-based planning software, cup planning in AHCR and HHCR (CR height ≥ 20 mm) was performed for every hip. Cup prominence was assessed on every plane. HHCR cups were less anteverted (p < 0.01), less medialized (p < 0.001) and less caudal (p = 0.01) than AHCR sockets. AHCR cups were more frequently prominent on at least one plane (92.5% vs. 77.5%), with minimal agreement between the two configurations (k = 0.31, p = 0.07). AHCR cups protruded more than HHCR sockets in the sagittal (p = 0.02) and axial planes (p < 0.001). Axially, at the center of the cup, prominence 6−11 mm occurred in nine (22.5%) AHCR and one (2.5%) HHCR socket. In conclusion, while a routine high hip center should not be recommended, cup placement at a center of rotation height < 20 mm is associated with higher rates and magnitudes of anterior cup protrusion in severe dysplasia.

Abstract
Purpose To report long-term survival and clinical outcomes of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a Saturne cementless dual-mobility (DM) cup, and investigate whether patient demographics or surgical parameters affect clinical scores. Methods A consecutive series of primary THAs implanted with Saturne cementless DM cups between 01/09/2009–31/12/ 2011 was retrospectively assessed. Patients were postoperatively evaluated using modified Harris hip score (mHHS) and forgotten joint score (FJS). Complications, reoperations, and revisions were noted. Regression analyses were performed to determine associations of postoperative mHHS with preoperative and intraoperative variables. Ten-year Kaplan–Meier survival was calculated. Results Of 308 patients (308 hips), 111 (36%) had died with their original cups in place, 29 (9%) were lost-to-follow-up, and 5 (2%) required cup revision, leaving a final cohort of 163 (53%) with their original cup in place at a follow-up of ≥ 10 years. Ten-year survival was 98% considering cup revision for any reason as endpoint; 99% considering cup revision for aseptic loosening as endpoint; 96% considering stem revision for any reason as endpoint; and 96% considering any revision as endpoint. The final cohort of 163 patients was assessed at 11 ± 1 years (range, 10–13), mHHS was 85 ± 16 (range, 31–100) and FJS was 84 ± 24 (range, 0–100). Multivariable regression analysis revealed that postoperative mHHS significantly worsened with age (β = -0.48, p = 0.007) and BMI (β = -0.70, p = 0.008), as well as for 22 mm head sizes (β = -6.98, p = 0.046). Conclusions The Saturne DM cup granted satisfactory survival and clinical outcomes at a minimum follow-up of 10 years, and resulted in no cases of intra- or extra-prosthetic dislocations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report outcomes of endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy (EIT) in patients with iliopsoas tendinopathy following total hip arthroplasty (THA) and determine whether improvements in clinical scores are associated with acetabular cup anteversion measured on plain radiographs or overhang measured using established and alternative computed tomography (CT)-based methods. METHODS We evaluated patients who underwent EIT for iliopsoas tendinopathy after THA (2014-2017), performed between the lesser trochanter and psoas valley. Indications were groin pain during active hip flexion, exclusion of other complications, and no pain relief after 6 months of conservative treatment. Pretenotomy inclination and anteversion were measured on radiographs; sagittal and axial overhang were measured on CT scans on slices passing through: (Method 1) prosthetic head center and (Method 2) anterior margin of acetabular cup. Modified Harris hip score (mHHS), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), and level of groin pain were recorded at 12 or more months. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to compare pre- and post-tenotomy scores, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) to assess intermethod agreement. RESULTS The cohort comprised 16 men (17 hips) and 32 women (33 hips), aged 60.8 ± 10.5 years at EIT. For the 30 (60%) hips that had pretenotomy CT scans, axial and sagittal overhang were, respectively, 3.4 ± 3.7 mm and 4.6 ± 4.6 mm, using Method 1, compared with 3.9 ± 3.9 mm and 6.9 ± 5.0 mm using Method 2. Intermethod agreement was good for axial (ICC, 0.67; P < .001) and sagittal (ICC, 0.68; P < .001) overhang. At a minimum 1 year after EIT, 3 hips had cup and stem revision and 1 hip had isolated cup revision, leaving 46 hips for clinical assessment. No complications were noted. mHHS improved by 26 ± 19 (P < .001) and OHS improved by 20 ± 11 (P < .001). Twenty-six hips (57%) achieved the patient acceptable symptom state for mHHS, whereas 42 hips (91%) achieved the patient acceptable symptom state for OHS. Post-tenotomy groin pain was slight in 15%, mild in 17%, and moderate in 11%. Regression analyses revealed no associations between clinical scores and overhang/anteversion. CONCLUSIONS For patients with iliopsoas tendinopathy following THA, endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy granted clinically important improvements of mHHS in 76% and OHS in 89%, despite moderate residual groin pain in 11%. Improvements in clinical scores did not seem to be associated with the extent of cup overhang or anteversion in the cases for which adequate preoperative imaging was available.

Total Hip Arthroplasty Using a Hemispherical Uncemented Dual-Mobility Cup Results in Satisfactory Clinical Outcomes and No Dislocations at 2 years. Arthroplast Today 2021; 9:93-97. [PMID: 34136611 PMCID: PMC8181579 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2021.04.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 10/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The authors performed total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a novel hemispherical dual-mobility (DM) acetabular cup without a protrusive cylindro-spherical rim, intended to reduce risks of iliopsoas impingement without requiring changes to conventional intraoperative positioning as with unipolar cups. We aim to determine clinical scores and rates of dislocations, complications, and revisions of this hemispherical DM cup, with the hypothesis that this novel design would result in clinical scores and dislocation rates comparable to other contemporary DM cups with protrusive cylindro-spherical rims. METHODS We assessed 332 consecutive uncemented THAs performed using a hemispherical DM cup, at a minimum 2-year follow-up, using modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Oxford Hip Score (OHS), and noting complications and revisions. Regression analyses were conducted to determine if mHHS and OHS depended on any independent factors. RESULTS At 2.8 ± 0.5 years (range, 2-5), 2 patients (0.6%) had stem and cup revisions, 3 patients (1%) had isolated stem revisions, 13 patients (4%) died, and none were lost to follow-up. No dislocations occurred. For the final cohort of 305 patients (314 hips) with their original implants in place, mHHS was 92 ± 12 (range, 46-100), and OHS was 57 ± 5 (range, 34-60). Multivariable analyses revealed that mHHS and OHS decreased significantly with age (β = -0.35, P < .001, and β = -0.15, P < .001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS With no dislocations and satisfactory clinical scores, this sizable cohort confirms that the novel hemispherical DM cup studied is effective at preventing dislocations, although longer-term follow-up remains necessary to ascertain the longevity of clinical outcomes and radiographic stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An understanding of pelvic and acetabular morphology and orientation is required for accurate surgical reconstruction of the hip and spine, as well for component placement in a total hip arthroplasty. Our objectives were to develop an automated system for measuring pelvic and sacral orientations utilizing computed tomographic (CT) scans and to characterize these measures across 200 asymptomatic subjects. METHODS An automated feature recognition algorithm was created to identify acetabular and pelvic orientation across 200 scans generated for non-musculoskeletal conditions. Three-dimensional models were generated from CT data to serve as inputs to the algorithm. Acetabular orientation was defined by comparing a plane fit to the acetabular rim with the anterior pelvic plane. Pelvic inclination, pelvic tilt, and sacral slope were defined as the angles between landmarks identified across the pelvis: pubic tubercles, acetabular center, left and right anterior superior iliac spines, and sacral plate. RESULTS The mean sacral slope was 36.49°, the mean pelvic tilt was 15.60°, and the mean pelvic incidence was 52.05°. The mean sacropubic angle was 32.48° and the mean pelvic-Lewinnek angle was 8.93°. Significant differences between male and female subjects were observed in the sacral slope (mean difference, 4.72°; p < 0.05), pelvic tilt α (mean difference, 4.17°; p < 0.05), pelvic tilt γ (mean difference, 3.06°; p < 0.05), and the pelvic-Lewinnek angle (mean difference, 1.76°; p < 0.05). The comparison of acetabular orientation measures with those in a prior study of the same cohort yielded intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) all above 0.97. The validation of sacral orientation via manual measurement also yielded ICC values all at or above 0.97. CONCLUSIONS Our algorithm showed a high degree of consistency in acetabular orientation measures with respect to a prior study of the same cohort. The measures of pelvic orientation were found to be accurate and reliable when compared with manual measurements of the same data set. All measurements of pelvic orientation were consistent with the means reported in the literature. CLINICAL RELEVANCE An accurate and reproducible, automated technique for determining pelvic and acetabular orientation provides a way to characterize these measures as an aid in clinical diagnosis and preoperative planning.

Improved accuracy of CT based measurements for anterior prominence of acetabular prosthesis using a novel protocol based on anatomical landmarks. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2020; 106:563-568. [PMID: 31959362 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2019.10.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2018] [Revised: 10/04/2019] [Accepted: 10/11/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior hip pain after total hip replacement (THR) can be caused by iliopsoas impingement (IPI). Validation of CT measured cup version is well published; however quantification of the anterior cup prominence has not been validated. Therefore, we did an in vitro study aiming to: (1) assess the accuracy of the current method of measuring the prominence of the acetabular component using a dry bone model; (2) develop a CT protocol based on bony anatomical landmarks that improves the accuracy of these measurements. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesise that utilising reproducible anatomical landmarks on the acetabulum will improve the accuracy of measurement of anterior prominence at the psoas valley. METHODS A dry bone pelvic model was implanted with bilateral acetabular cups. The cup was manipulated into ten different combinations of inclination and version, and anterior prominence directly measured in relation to the acetabular rim. A CT scan was performed for each position. Anterior prominence was then measured by two radiologists, first using standard methods (axial slice at level of centre of femoral head) and then again using a novel protocol (based on the position of the psoas valley in relation to the inferior medial acetabular notch). RESULTS Mean errors between direct measurement of anterior prominence and radiologist reported measurements using standard protocol were 6.94mm±5.24 (SD) (95%Confidence Interval: 3.25-4.27) and 5.14mm±3.07 (95%CI: 1.9-2.5) with a tendency towards overestimation of prominence. Using an anatomical landmark based protocol; mean error was reduced to 3.0mm±1.9 (95%CI: 1.16-1.53) and 4.3mm±4.3 (95%CI: 2.67-351) on the first attempt, and to 1.7mm±1.9 (95%CI: 1.15-1.52) and 2.1mm±1.4 (95%CI: 0.87-1.15) on the second attempt. Concordance correlation improved from 0.43 (95% CI: 0.19-0.68) and 0.59 (95% CI: 0.44-0.79) using the standard protocol, to 0.88 (95%CI: 0.61-0.91) and 0.9 (95%CI: 0.56-0.92) using the novel protocol. CONCLUSIONS There is a difference in mean error and reliability between radiologically measured values for anterior prominence and values measured directly with present methods. The use of our novel protocol based on bony acetabular landmarks, significantly improves the accuracy of measurement. This protocol may improve reproducibility and the accuracy of this measurement and aid in the decision between tenotomy or revision of the acetabular component. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, in vitro study comparing diagnostic tools.

Abstract
Background This scoping review aimed to investigate the literature on the anatomy of the psoas valley, an anterior depression on the acetabular rim, and propose a unified definition of the anatomical structure, describe its dimensions, anatomical variations and clinical implications. Methods A systematic computer search of EMBASE, PubMed and Cochrane for literature related to the psoas valley was undertaken using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Clinical outcome studies, prospective/retrospective case series, case reports and review articles that described the psoas valley and its synonyms were included. Studies on animals as well as book chapters were excluded. Results Of the 313 articles, the filtered literature search identified 14 papers describing the psoas valley and its synonyms such as iliopsoas notch, a notch between anterior inferior iliac spine and the iliopubic eminence, Psoas-U and anterior wall depression. Most of these were cross-sectional studies that mainly analyzed normal skeletal hips. In terms of anatomical variation, 4 different configurations of the anterior acetabular rim have been identified and it was found that the curved type was the most frequent while the straight type may be nonexistent. Additionally, the psoas valley tended to be deeper in males as compared with females. Several papers established the psoas valley, or Psoas-U in a consistent location at approximately 3 o’clock on the acetabular rim which may have implications with labral pathology. Conclusion This review highlights the importance of the anatomy of the psoas valley which is a consistent bony landmark. The anatomy and the anatomical variations of the psoas valley need to be well-appreciated by surgeons involved in the management of young adults with hip pathology and also joint replacement surgeons to ensure appropriate seating of the acetabular component.

May O. Arthroscopic techniques for treating ilio-psoas tendinopathy after hip arthroplasty. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2019; 105:S177-S185. [PMID: 30555016 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2018.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2017] [Revised: 05/09/2018] [Accepted: 05/11/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Impingement of hip arthroplasty components on soft tissues may adversely affect outcomes. An example is impingement of the cup on the ilio-psoas tendon, which has been reported in 0.4% to 8.3% of patients. Contributors to ilio-psoas tendon impingement (IPTI) can be categorised as anatomic (hypoplastic anterior wall), technical (inadequate anteversion and/or lower inclination, oversized cup, cement in contact with the tendon, and intra-muscular screw), and prosthetic (e.g., aggressive cup design, large-diameter head, resurfacing, and collared femoral prosthesis). IPTI manifests as groin pain, raising diagnostic challenges since this symptom lacks specificity. Physical findings of value for the diagnosis include pain exacerbation during active hip flexion, groin pain upon straight-leg raise to 30°, and/or snapping hip syndrome. Confirmation is then provided by ultrasonography and, most importantly, computed tomography. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, non-operative treatment combining physical therapy and local corticosteroid injections is prescribed. When these measures fail, endoscopic or arthroscopic surgery is generally effective. In patients with major cup malposition, revision of the cup is the preferred option, despite the higher complication rate. When cup position is adequate, ilio-psoas tenotomy can be performed either extra-articularly at the lesser trochanter (by endoscopy) or intra-articularly (by arthroscopy). The arthroscopic technique is more demanding but useful when the diagnosis is in doubt, as it allows examination of the prosthetic bearing surfaces. Both techniques and the risks inherent in each are discussed in detail. Tenotomy, whether performed endoscopically or arthroscopically, promptly provides good outcomes in over 85% of patients, usually with full recovery of hip flexor strength over time. These minimally invasive techniques, while as effective as conventional surgery, are associated with lower morbidity rates.

Endoscopic or arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy for iliopsoas impingement following total hip replacement. A prospective multicenter 64-case series. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2017; 103:S207-S214. [PMID: 28917519 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2017.09.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2017] [Accepted: 08/23/2017] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Impingement between the acetabular component and the iliopsoas tendon is a cause of anterior pain after total hip replacement (THR). Treatment can be non-operative, endoscopic or arthroscopic, or by open revision of the acetabular component. Few studies have assessed these options. The present study hypothesis was that endo/arthroscopic treatment provides rapid pain relief with a low rate of complications. METHODS A prospective multicenter study included 64 endoscopic or arthroscopic tenotomies for impingement between the acetabular component and the iliopsoas tendon, performed in 8 centers. Mean follow-up was 8months, with a minimum of 6months and no loss to follow-up. Oxford score, patient satisfaction, anterior pain and iliopsoas strength were assessed at last follow-up. Complications and revision procedures were collated. Forty-four percent of patients underwent rehabilitation. RESULTS At last follow-up, 92% of patients reported pain alleviation. Oxford score, muscle strength and pain in hip flexion showed significant improvement. The complications rate was 3.2%, with complete resolution. Mean hospital stay was 0.8 nights. In 2 cases, arthroscopy revealed metallosis, indicating revision of the acetabular component. The only predictive factor was acetabular projection on oblique view. Rehabilitation significantly improved muscle strength. CONCLUSION Endoscopic or arthroscopic tenotomy for impingement between the acetabular component and the iliopsoas tendon following THR significantly alleviated anterior pain in more than 92% of cases. The low complications rate makes this the treatment of choice in case of failure of non-operative management. Arthroscopy also reorients diagnosis in case of associated joint pathology. Projection of the acetabular component on preoperative oblique view is the most predictive criterion, guiding treatment.

Abstract
Determining three-dimensional (3D) acetabular orientation is important for several orthopaedic scenarios, but the complex geometries of both pelvis and acetabulum make measurements of orientation unreliable. Acetabular orientation may also differ between the sexes or racial groups. We aimed to (1) establish and evaluate a novel method for measuring 3D acetabular orientation, (2) apply this new method to a large population of Chinese subjects, and (3) report relevant characteristics of native acetabular orientation in this population. We obtained computed tomography scans taken for non-orthopaedic indications in 100 Chinese subjects (50 male, 50 female). A novel algorithm tailored to segmentation of the hip joint was used to construct 3D pelvic models from these scans. We developed a surface-based method to establish a reliable 3D pelvic coordinate system and software to semi-automatically measure 3D acetabular orientation. Differences in various acetabular orientations were compared within and between subjects, between male and female subjects, and between our subjects and subjects previously reported by another group. The reported method was reliable (intraclass correlation coefficient >0.999). Acetabular orientations were symmetrical within subjects, but ranged widely between subjects. The sexes differed significantly in acetabular anteversion (average difference, 3.0°; p < 0.001) and inclination (1.5°; p < 0.03). Acetabular anteversion and inclination were substantially smaller among our Chinese subjects than previously reported for American subjects. Thus, our method was reliable and sensitive, and we detected sex differences in 3D acetabular orientation. Awareness of differences between the sexes and races is the first step towards better reconstruction of the hip joint for all individuals and could also be applied to other orthopaedic scenarios.

Abstract
The dual mobility cup (DMC) is an increasingly important tool not only in primary but also in revision total hip arthroplasty to prevent dislocation and eventually reduce postoperative complication rates. Various studies have shown survival rates with DMCs of up to 100% with an average dislocation rate of less than 1.5% after primary hip arthroplasty and a follow-up of 10 years. In revision surgery, survival rates of up to 99% were reported with dislocation rates between 0 and 10% after an average of 5 years after implantation. This article is intended to provide an overview of the principle and function of DMCs. Furthermore, indications as well as complications are presented.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dual-mobility arthroplasty is an alternative to conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) in appropriately selected, active adults with degenerative, necrotic or post-traumatic hip disease or with revision hip arthroplasty. Numerous papers have been published with results of dual-mobility arthroplasty, but there have been no comprehensive literature reviews that summarise the most recent findings and help the orthopaedic surgeon facing different scenarios in which revision of one or both components of a dual-mobility arthroplasty is indicated. METHODS We performed a PubMed search for papers published on dual-mobility arthroplasty that provided data on revision and add our experience in order to describe different revision scenarios. We collected data on revision for any reason, for aseptic loosening, for infection, or for dislocation. For each complication, we summarise causes and diagnosis of this complication and describe the direction of possible therapeutic options. RESULTS The dual-mobility arthroplasty offers the benefit of increased stability without compromising clinical outcomes and implant longevity. However, as with conventional arthroplasties, complications are also reported, with the most frequent being cup loosening, dislocation, accelerated wear and infection. Dual-mobility implants also have some specific complications secondary to their specific design, with the presence of a third joint. For example, intraprosthetic dislocation due to retentive failure of the polyethylene (PE) liner on the femoral head is a complication observed exclusively with this type of implant and involves articulation failure between the femoral head and the PE liner. Mechanical conflict with the iliopsoas tendon has also been reported, probably due to femoral head size, cup design, and/or a dysplastic hip. This systematic review of the literature identified several options for treating each complication, and in particular, options regarding conserving or not of one the two articulating devices. CONCLUSIONS These findings can inform discussions relating to risks and benefits of different therapeutic options when performing revision of a dual-mobility arthroplasty.

Abstract
Background In Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA), residual pain may be secondary to soft tissue impingements, which are difficult to visualize around chromium-cobalt implants using medical imaging, so their interactions remain poorly understood. The goal of this work was to establish a protocol for in-vitro imaging of the soft tissues around TKA, usable during throughout the range of motion (ROM). Methods The full size range of a commercially available TKA prosthesis was manufactured by 3D-printing in non-magnetic and non-radiopaque polymer and implanted in 12 cadaveric knees. The relations between these implants and the soft tissues (Popliteus tendon, Medial and Lateral Collateral Ligament, Patellar and Quadriceps tendons) were analyzed, using MRI (5 embalmed specimens) and CT scans after injection of the tissues with barium-sulfate (3 embalmed and 4 fresh-frozen specimens). Results Both MRI and CT scans enabled good identification of the soft tissues before TKA implantation. MRI produced minimal loss in signal and contrast, and neither the low temperature nor the embalming fluids compromised image quality. CT scans were more precise after TKA implantation, particularly the borders of the implant and the differentiation of soft tissues. Full ROM investigation, manual segmentation and three-dimensional reconstructions were possible only with the CT scan. Conclusion The experimental approach described in this study was successful in visualizing the interactions between the soft tissue and the implants before and after TKA and during the full ROM. The coordinate system allows to localize precisely the different anatomic structures and to quantify any change due to prosthetic implantation.

Abstract
The principle of dual mobility cups, often called "tripolar", has been developed to overcome the problem of instability following primary hip arthroplasty. We prospectively compared two cohorts which differed only by the type of bearings, i.e." mobile bearing hip" (MBH) in a 143-study cohort of ADM cups versus "fixed bearing hip" (FBH) of 130 Trident PSL cups, at a follow-up at 2-6years. The survival rates at 4.13-years, with instability as endpoint was significantly (P=0.0176) in favor of mobile bearings at 100% with no dislocation reported, versus 94.8% with fixed bearings. These mobile bearings, matching both "modern" dual mobility cups and annealed highly crossed polyethylene, would appear to offer at longer follow-up a valuable solution to clinical outcomes in acetabular arthroplasty.

Abstract
Part 1 of this article outlined the extensive osseous adaptations around the hip that occurred in the development of a habitual bipedal gait in modern humans. The shortest summary of these osseous changes is 'double extension', i.e. extension of both the hip joint and the lumbar spine. Not surprisingly, these osseous changes went hand in hand with major muscular changes. The primary changes that accompanied the double extension were changes in relative muscle volume for the quadriceps, gluteus maximus and hamstrings, changes in moment arms for the iliopsoas, gluteus maximus and hamstrings, a change in function for the gluteus medius and minimus, while the functional anatomy of the adductors and hip rotators changed only slightly. The effect of these osseous and muscular changes was improved energy efficiency of human bipedal walking and (long distance) running. However, this occurred at the expense of maximum power, characteristic for activities such as tree climbing (in the apes), but equally so for sprinting. Recognizing these changes and their consequences may help us better understand and treat soft-tissue disorders around the hip.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clock face has been employed to define the position of labral pathology in relation to identifiable arthroscopically relevant acetabular landmarks. The purpose of this study was to qualitatively and quantitatively describe arthroscopically relevant anatomy of the acetabulum. We aimed to present a surgical landmark that is located in close proximity to the usual location of labral pathology as an alternative to the midpoint of the transverse acetabular ligament as a reference point. METHODS Fourteen fresh-frozen cadaveric hemipelves were dissected to evaluate osseous landmarks and relevant surrounding soft-tissue structures of the acetabulum. With use of a coordinate-measuring device, we determined the location, orientation, and relationship of key arthroscopic landmarks and the footprint areas formed by the insertions of the rectus femoris, capsule, and labrum. RESULTS An analysis of variability of reference points around the acetabulum in relation to the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) revealed that the superior margin of the anterior labral sulcus (psoas-u) was the most consistent anatomic landmark. The AIIS comprised superior and inferior facets, demarcated by the origins of the direct head of the rectus femoris and the iliocapsularis. The inferolateral corner of the footprint of the direct head of the rectus femoris was located 19.2 mm (95% confidence interval [CI], 18.0 to 20.4 mm) from the acetabular rim and the inferolateral aspect of the iliocapsularis footprint, 12.5 mm (95% CI, 10.1 to 15.0 mm) from the rim. CONCLUSIONS The superior margin of the anterior labral sulcus (psoas-u) was a reliable landmark for reference of the clock face on the acetabulum. We propose that this point, denoting 3:00, be adopted as the new standard clock-face reference for intra-articular hip structures because of its universal presence and reliable arthroscopic visualization. This marker is also beneficial because of its proximity to the typical location of labral pathology. The data presented provide a comprehensive analysis of pertinent arthroscopically relevant acetabular anatomy. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The establishment of a new standard reference point within the acetabulum will enhance the consistency of interpretation of the location of labral pathology and improve arthroscopic orientation and navigation.

Abstract
Background: Labral tears often occur in the same quadrant of the acetabulum at a small depression previously referred to as the psoas valley. Understanding the anatomic variations of this depression could help us understand the etiology of labral tears. Purpose: To describe the location and dimensions of the depression located in the anterosuperior acetabular rim. The hypothesis was that the location of this depression would be consistent with the common location of acetabular labral tears described in the literature. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: A total of 240 pelvic specimens were divided into 2 groups (n = 120 for each) according to age (younger age group: 21.36 ± 3.12 years [range, 14-24 years]; older age group: 42.30 ± 10.27 years, [range, 25-60 years]).Specimens were also categorized based on sex (mean age: 31.93 ± 12.31 years [male]; 32.08 ± 13.66 years [female]) and race (mean age: 31.45 ± 13.16 years [black]; 32.57 ± 12.82 years [white]). The depth and width of the acetabular depression were measured using a digital caliper, and the location was measured using a goniometer. Results: The psoas valley was observed in every specimen and was located in the anterosuperior quadrant of the acetabulum. Its depth was significantly greater (P < .001) in males (5.35 ± 1.60 mm) than in females (3.95 ± 1.31 mm). The width of the psoas valley was also greater (P < .001) in males (29.39 ± 3.98 mm) than in females (24.49 ± 4.80 mm). There were no differences in size or location of the depression between races or age groups. The psoas valley was located between 3.92 ± 0.42 o’clock anteriorly and 2.12 ± 0.77 o’clock posteriorly. Conclusion: The differences observed in the study data are believed to be a result of the different anatomic morphologies of the pelvis in males and females. This loss of bony support, caused by the depression, could be the underlying cause of weakening of the acetabular labrum as people age. Clinical Relevance: The loss of bony support in the anterosuperior acetabular depression could contribute to the labral tears that commonly occur in this area. Understanding the normal anatomy of this area could be important in determining the risk of labral tears as well as treatment options.

Abstract
Hip instability after total hip replacement has been shown to be a critical cause of failure. The use of dual mobility has been classically restricted to patients "at risk", over 70 years of age. The question rises up about extended indications of so-called "modern" second generation dual mobility cups. This prospective multicenter study reports on first results at 2-5 years of the HA anatomical ADM cup upon two comparative groups of patients under 70 years (112 hips) vs. over 70 years of age (325 hips). No dislocation, migration, tilting, wear, or intra-prosthetic dislocation was recorded within each of the two cohorts. Survivorship for cup failures at this 4-year period was ideal at 100% in the younger patients, and 99.7% in the older group of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare hip morphology between young men and women who presented with hip pain and labral tears. METHODS A retrospective review of our hip arthroscopy registry from March 2008 to June 2010 was completed. We identified 217 patients (249 hips) who were between the ages of 18 to 30 years. The inclusion criteria were (1) insidious-onset hip pain or worsening pain after low-energy sports trauma, (2) positive hip impingement sign, (3) Tönnis grades 0 to 1, (4) magnetic resonance imaging showing labral tear, and (5) primary hip arthroscopy confirming labral tear. Forty-five patients (52 hips) were excluded for the following reasons: (1) revision hip arthroscopy, (2) high-energy hip trauma, (3) history of surgery involving the femur or pelvis, (4) previous fractures of the femur or pelvis, (5) Tönnis grades 2 or above, (6) proliferative disease of the hip (i.e., synovial chondromatosis, pigmented villonodular synovitis), (7) neuromuscular disease (i.e., cerebral palsy), and (8) deformities related to Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease or developmental dysplasia of the hip. Therefore, the cohort study group included 105 (61%) men (123 [62.4%] hips) and 67 (39%) women (74 [37.6%] hips). Sex comparisons were made for the following variables measured on preoperative hip computed tomography scans: alpha angle, acetabular version, femoral version, lateral center-edge angle, and neck-shaft angle. RESULTS Women had smaller alpha angles (47.8°v 63.6°, P < .001), increased acetabular version (17.3°v 13.9°, P < .001), and increased femoral anteversion (14.4°v 12.1°, P = .05). CONCLUSIONS In young adults with hip pain and labral tears, women have smaller alpha angles and hips that are generally more anteverted. Therefore, in women, cam lesions may be more subtle, preoperative hip version analyses should be encouraged, and rim trimming may need to be cautiously planned to avoid increasing contact stresses at weight-bearing areas after such a procedure.

Acetabular tilt correlates with acetabular version and coverage in hip dysplasia. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2012; 470:2827-35.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rotational position of the acetabulum to the pelvis (acetabular tilt) may influence acetabular version and coverage of the femoral head. To date, the pathologic significance of acetabular tilt in hip dysplasia is unknown. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We determined whether acetabular tilt in hip dysplasia is different from that in normal hips and whether this correlates with acetabular version and coverage. METHODS We measured the acetabular tilt angle on the lateral view of three-dimensional pelvic CT images of 40 patients (72 hips) with hip dysplasia. Forty normal hips from 40 patients were used as controls. The acetabular sector angle was measured as an index for acetabular coverage of the femoral head. RESULTS The mean acetabular tilt angle was increased in dysplastic hips compared with controls. In dysplastic hips, a posteriorly rotated acetabulum (increased acetabular tilt) was associated with increased acetabular anteversion and with decreased anterior and anterosuperior acetabular coverage. No correlation was found in controls. In dysplastic hips with a posterior acetabular deficiency, the acetabulum was rotated anteriorly (decreased acetabular tilt) compared with hips with anterior and lateral deficiencies. CONCLUSIONS We observed a correlation between the rotational position of the acetabulum in the pelvis with acetabular version and coverage in hip dysplasia. Our observations confirmed anterior rotation of the acetabular fragment during periacetabular osteotomies is an anatomically reasonable maneuver for hips with anterolateral acetabular deficiencies, while the maneuver can exacerbate posterior coverage and should be avoided in hips with a posterior acetabular deficiency.

Abstract
Understanding the three-dimensional orientation of the coxo-femoral joint remains a challenge as an accurate three-dimensional orientation ensure an efficient bipedal gait and posture. The quantification of the orientation of the acetabulum can be performed using the three-dimensional axis perpendicular to the plane that passes along the edge of the acetabular rim. However, the acetabular rim is not regular as an important indentation in the anterior rim was observed. An innovative cadaver study of the labrum was developed to shed light on the proper quantification of the three-dimensional orientation of the acetabulum. Dissections on 17 non-embalmed corpses were performed. Our results suggest that the acetabular rim is better represented by an anterior plane and a posterior plane rather than a single plane along the entire rim as it is currently assumed. The development of the socket from the Y-shaped cartilage was suggested to explain the different orientations in these anterior and posterior planes. The labrum forms a plane that takes an orientation in between the anterior and posterior parts of the acetabular rim, filling up inequalities of the bony rim. The vectors V(L) , V(A2) and V(P) , representing the three-dimensional orientation of the labrum, the anterior rim and the posterior rim, are situated in a unique plane that appears biomechanically dependent. The three-dimensional orientation of the acetabulum is a fundamental parameter to understand the hip joint mechanism. Important applications for hip surgery and rehabilitation, as well as for physical anthropology, were discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Correct cup positioning is one of the keys for successful total hip replacement. There are mechanical and computer assistant guides for correct cup positioning in the market. To optimize the cup positioning, the use of navigation systems is recommended. The aim of this study was to compare spatial orientation of the acetabulary entry plane in relation to tables plane which is used by mechanical guides as well as anterior pelvic plane used for cup orientation by navigation systems. METHODS CT raw data of 80 Caucasians (160 acetabuli) (done in supine position) with osteoartritic hips were collected. 3-D pelvic reconstruction was generated using Amira software (Visage Imaging Berlin, Germany). Anterior pelvic plane and acetabulary entry plane were defined by reliable anatomical landmarks. Spatial orientation were calculated by a custom made program code for the Amira software. RESULTS There were no differences between anterior pelvic plane and table's plane as well as spatial orientation of acetabulary entry plane of both acetabuli in relation to anterior pelvic plane or table's plane. Furthermore, there was no correlation between age, sex or body mass index and spatial orientation of the acetabulary entry plane as well. CONCLUSIONS The use of mechanical alignment guides for cup orientation during total hip arthroplasty based on table's plane in patient's supine position is a successful method to achieve proper cup orientation.

Abstract
Iliopsoas impingement is a known cause of pain after total hip arthroplasty. The author reports on a patient with iliopsoas impingement due to prominence of the anterior aspect of her acetabular hip arthroplasty component successfully treated with revision to an anatomically designed acetabular implant. Use of such an anatomically designed acetabular implant may prove to be beneficial in selected patients with iliopsoas impingement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Suture anchors are commonly used to reattach a torn labrum to the acetabular rim. The acetabular rim anatomy is not uniform, and the safety margin for inserting suture anchors is unknown. The acetabular rim angle is an anatomic measurement that is indicative of the safety margin for inserting suture anchors. PURPOSE To investigate the acetabular rim angle as a function of clock position, to evaluate the effect of drill depth on the acetabular rim angle, and to evaluate the effect of rim trimming on the acetabular rim angle. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. METHODS Three-dimensional acetabular models were reconstructed from computed tomography scans of 20 nonpaired cadaveric hip specimens, and the acetabular rim angle, which quantifies the angle between the subchondral margin and the outer cortex of the acetabulum, was measured from the 8- to 4-o'clock positions. At each position, the acetabular rim angle was measured for 5 drill depths (10, 12.5, 15, 20, and 25 mm) to simulate different lengths of suture anchors or drill bit depths on the acetabular rim angle. To simulate rim trimming, the acetabular rim angle was measured at the points that would become the suture anchor insertion points after 2.5- and 5-mm rim trimming. RESULTS Clock position, drill depth, and rim trimming all had significant effects on the acetabular rim angle (P < .0001). The acetabular rim angle was largest at the 2-o'clock and smallest at the 3-o'clock position. Greater drill depths provided smaller acetabular rim angles, whereas rim trimming provided larger acetabular rim angles. CONCLUSION The acetabular rim angle varied significantly as a function of the location on the acetabular rim. A shorter drill depth and a greater amount of rim trimming provided a larger acetabular rim angle. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Surgeons should be aware of the acetabular rim variations, especially in the anterosuperior quadrant, as well as the effects of drill depth and rim trimming, when selecting the optimal insertion angle for suture anchor placement to avoid articular cartilage penetration. The acetabular safety angle was smallest at the 3-o'clock position. Therefore, extra care must be taken when drilling or inserting anchors around the 3-o'clock position.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine and describe the normal anatomic intra-articular locations of the hip capsular ligaments in the central and peripheral compartments of the hip joint. METHODS Eight paired fresh-frozen human cadaveric hips (mean age, 73.3 years) were carefully dissected free of soft tissue to expose the hip capsule. Needles were placed through the capsule along the macroscopic borders of the hip capsular ligaments. Arthroscopy was performed on each hip, and the relations of the needles, and thus the ligaments, to the arthroscopic portals and other soft-tissue and osseous landmarks in the hip were recorded by use of a clock-face reference system. RESULTS The iliofemoral ligament (ILFL) ran from 12:45 to 3 o'clock. The ILFL was pierced by the anterolateral and anterior portals just within its lateral and medial borders, respectively. The pubofemoral ligament was located from the 3:30 to the 5:30 clock position; the lateral border was at the psoas-U perimeter, and the medial border was at the junction of the anteroinferior acetabulum and the cotyloid fossa. The ischiofemoral ligament (ISFL) ran from the 7:45 to the 10:30 clock position. The posterolateral portal pierced the ISFL just inside its superior/lateral border, and the inferior/lateral border was located at the posteroinferior acetabulum. In the peripheral compartment the lateral ILFL and superior/lateral ISFL borders were in proximity to the lateral synovial fold. The medial ILFL and lateral pubofemoral ligament borders were closely approximated to the medial synovial fold. CONCLUSIONS The hip capsular ligaments have distinct and consistent arthroscopic locations within the hip joint and are associated with clearly identifiable landmarks in the central and peripheral compartments. The standard hip arthroscopy portals are closely related to the borders of the hip capsular ligaments. CLINICAL RELEVANCE These findings will help orthopaedic surgeons know which structures are being addressed during arthroscopic surgery and may help in the development of future hip procedures.

Abstract
The human hip is subjected to several hundred million loading cycles during a lifetime. Hip instability and femoro-acetabular impingement cause damage to the rim of the acetabulum. The acetabular rim is a highly specialized structure known as the labro-acetabular complex. A unidirectional flow of synovial fluid has been identified in this region. The synovial fluid circulation is driven by the bellows-like movement of the zona orbicularis and depends on hip flexion and extension. Surgical repair of the damaged labro-acetabular complex should satisfy two goals. First, the labrum should be preserved or reconstructed when possible. Second, the precipitating cause of the labro-acetabular damage must be addressed.

Abstract
For the proper diagnosis or treatment of hip joint disorders caused by anatomical abnormalities, the normal hip joint morphology must be studied to understand its influence on the maximum range of motion (ROM) until bony impingement by focusing on gender differences. Acetabular and femoral morphologies were analyzed from 3D CT images of 106 normal hip joints from elderly men (n = 36 joints) and women (n = 70 joints), and measurements of ROM until bony impingement were made in four directions (flexion, extension, and external and internal rotation at 90° flexion) using surface models of the pelvis and femur reconstructed from the CT data. Gender differences were found not only in joint orientation, including anteversion and inclination of the acetabulum and femoral neck anteversion, but also in the shape around the joint, including the acetabular rim and the femoral neck. This ROM study also showed gender differences in all four standard directions. In conclusion, significant gender differences were observed in the acetabular and femoral morphology, which led to significant gender differences in ROM until bony impingement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current techniques for measuring in vivo polyethylene wear suffer from a range of problems, resulting in an unacceptable lack of repeatability and/or insufficient accuracy when they are used to measure the low wear rates associated with new, highly crosslinked polyethylene. We describe an improved CT method for measurement of 3D femoral head penetration in PE acetabular cups that has sufficient accuracy and repeatability to allow assessment of the wear potential of modern implants. METHOD The accuracy and repeatability of the CT-scan method was determined by blindly repeating measurements on a precisely calibrated 28-mm prosthetic head and by comparing them with direct metrological measurements on 10 acetabular specimens with in vitro wear from machining, and on 8 explanted acetabular specimens with in vivo wear. RESULTS The intra- and interobserver errors in femoral head diameter were 0.036 mm (SD 0.044) and 0.050 mm (SD 0.022), respectively. CT estimated femoral head penetration in both all-poly and metal-backed acetabular components with accuracy ranging from 0.009 to 0.245 mm (mean 0.080; SD 0.067). INTERPRETATION We found that the CT method is rapid, is accurate, and has repeatability and ease of availability. Using a slice thickness of 0.0625 mm, this method can detect wear—and also the threshold for the wear rate that causes osteolysis—much earlier than previous methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many impinging hips are said to have a mix of features of femoral cam and an overcovered acetabulum causing pincer impingement. Correction of such a mixed picture by reduction of the cam lesion and the acetabular rim is the suggested treatment. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We therefore asked two questions: (1) Is the acetabulum in cam impingement easily distinguishable from the pincer acetabulum, or is there a group with features of both types of impingement? (2) Is version or depth of socket better able to distinguish cam from pincer impingement? METHODS We analyzed the morphologic features of the acetabulum and rim profile of 20 normal, healthy hips, 20 with cams and 20 with pincers on CT. Pelvises were digitized, orientated to the best-fit acetabular plane, and a rim profile was plotted. RESULTS Cam hips were shallower than normal hips, which in turn were shallower than pincer hips (84 degrees +/- 5 degrees versus 87 degrees +/- 4 degrees versus 96 degrees +/- 5 degrees, respectively). The rim planes of cam, normal, and pincer hips had similar version (23 degrees, 24 degrees, 25 degrees), but females were 4 degrees more anteverted than males. CONCLUSIONS We concluded cam and pincer hips are distinct pathoanatomic entities. Cam hips are slightly shallower than normal, whereas pincers are deeper. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Before performing surgery for cam-type femoroacetabular impingement, surgeons should consider measuring the acetabular depth. The cam acetabulum is shallower than normal and may be rendered pathologically shallow by acetabular rim resection leading to early joint failure.

Tailor-made Surgical Guide Reduces Incidence of Outliers of Cup Placement. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2010; 468:1088-95. [PMID: 19629605 PMCID: PMC2835612 DOI: 10.1007/s11999-009-0994-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2009] [Accepted: 07/07/2009] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Malalignment of the cup in total hip arthroplasty (THA) increases the risks of postoperative complications such as neck cup impingement, dislocation, and wear. We asked whether a tailor-made surgical guide based on CT images would reduce the incidence of outliers beyond 10 degrees from preoperatively planned alignment of the cup compared with those without the surgical guide. We prospectively followed 38 patients (38 hips, Group 1) having primary THA with the conventional technique and 31 patients (31 hips, Group 2) using the surgical guide. We designed the guide for Group 2 based on CT images and fixed it to the acetabular edge with a Kirschner wire to indicate the planned cup direction. Postoperative CT images showed the guide reduced the number of outliers compared with the conventional method (Group 1, 23.7%; Group 2, 0%). The surgical guide provided more reliable cup insertion compared with conventional techniques. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Appropriate anatomic concepts for surgery to treat femoroacetabular impingement require a precise appreciation of the native acetabular anatomy. We therefore determined (1) the spatial acetabular rim profile, (2) the topography of the articular lunate surface, and (3) the 3-D relationships of the acetabular opening plane comparing 66 bony acetabula from 33 pelves in female and male pelves. The acetabular rim profile had a constant and regular wave-like outline without gender differences. Three prominences anterosuperiorly, anteroinferiorly and posteroinferiorly extended just above hemispheric level. Two depressions were below hemispheric level, of 9 degrees at the anterior wall and of 21 degrees along the posterosuperior wall. In 94% of all acetabula, the deepest extent of the articular surface was within 30 degrees of the anterosuperior acetabular sector. In 99% of men and in 91% of women, the depth of the articular surface was at least 55 degrees along almost half of the upper acetabular cup. The articular surface was smaller in women than in men. The acetabular opening plane was orientated in 21 degrees +/- 5 degrees for version, 48 degrees +/- 4 degrees for inclination and 19 degrees +/- 6 degrees for acetabular tilt with no gender differences. We defined tilt as forward rotation of the entire acetabular cup around its central axis; because of interindividual variability of acetabular tilt, descriptions of acetabular lesions during surgery, CT scanning and MRI should be defined and recorded in relation to the acetabular notch. Acetabular tilt and pelvic tilt should be separately identified. We believe this information important for surgeons performing rim trimming in FAI surgery or performing acetabular osteotomies.

Abstract
Despite the curvaceous profile of the acetabulum, orthopaedic surgeons have continued to implant hemispheric cups since the introduction of total hip arthroplasty. The geometric discrepancies between the natural acetabulum and implant can result in painful iliopsoas impingement attributable to prosthetic overlap at the anterior acetabular ridge over which the iliopsoas tendon extends to leave the pelvis. We expanded on previous in vitro observations of acetabular morphology using a large in vivo sample and quantified the dimensions of the psoas valley. We studied computed tomographic scans of 200 healthy hips from 50 men and 50 women. The acetabular ridges were digitized on three-dimensional bone reconstructions and their coordinates were manipulated in spreadsheets to deduce acetabular diameter, anteversion, and inclination and to plot the rim profile. Our results confirm the acetabular rim is an asymmetric succession of three peaks and three troughs. The psoas valley has the following shape distribution: 79% curved, 11% angular, 10% irregular, and 0% straight. The mean depth of the psoas valley is 5 mm and the latitude of its trough is on average 6 mm below the acetabular equator. The use of side-specific cups that replicate the curvaceous acetabular profile could prevent prosthetic overlap and reduce the incidence of iliopsoas impingement.
