Abstract
While it is well-established that early detection and initiation of treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is crucial to successful clinical outcomes, research on the mechanics of the hip joint during healthy and pathological hip development in infants is limited. Quantification of mechanical behavior in both the healthy and dysplastic developing joints may provide insight into the causes of DDH and facilitate innovation in treatment options. In this study, subject-specific three-dimensional finite element models of two pigs were developed: one healthy pig and one pig with induced dysplasia in the right hindlimb. The objectives of this study were: (1) to characterize mechanical behavior in the acetabular articular cartilage during a normal walking cycle by analyzing six metrics: contact pressure, contact area, strain energy density, von Mises stress, principal stress, and principal strain; and (2) to quantify the effect on joint mechanics of three anatomic abnormalities previously identified as related to DDH: variation in acetabular coverage, morphological changes in the femoral head, and changes in the articular cartilage. All metrics, except the contact area, were elevated in the dysplastic joint. Morphological changes in the femoral head were determined to be the most significant factors in elevating contact pressure in the articular cartilage, while the effects of acetabular coverage and changes in the articular cartilage were less significant. The quantification of the pathomechanics of DDH in this study can help identify key mechanical factors that restore normal hip development and can lead to mechanics-driven treatment options.

Persistently elevated joint contact stress after periacetabular osteotomy is associated with joint failure at minimum 10-year follow-up. J Orthop Res 2024. [PMID: 39030968 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/22/2024]
Abstract
Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a common treatment for prearthritic hip dysplasia. The goal of this investigation was to determine if computationally assessed hip contact mechanics are associated with joint failure at minimum 10-year follow-up. One hundred patients with hip dysplasia (125 hips) completed patient-reported outcomes an average of 13.8 years (range 10.0-18.0 years) after PAO. 63/125 hips were classified as having failed: 26 converted to total hip arthroplasty (THA) and 37 with significant disability indicated by modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) ≤ 70. Differences in discrete element analysis-computed contact mechanics were compared between (1) preserved and failed hips, (2) preserved hips and hips that failed by THA, and (3) preserved hips and hips that failed by mHHS ≤ 70. Failed hips had significantly higher preoperative contact stress and exposure metrics (p < 0.001-0.009) than preserved hips. Failed hips also had significantly higher postoperative peak contact stress (p = 0.018), higher mean contact stress (p < 0.001), and smaller contact area (p = 0.044). When assessed based on type of failure, hips that failed by THA had significantly higher postoperative contact stress and exposure metrics than preserved hips (p < 0.001-0.020). In hips that failed by mHHS ≤ 70, mean postoperative contact stress exposure was significantly higher compared to preserved hips (p = 0.043). Despite improved radiographic measures of dysplasia after PAO, pathologic joint contact mechanics can persist and predict treatment failure at minimum 10 years after surgery. Operative and nonoperative techniques specifically intended to reduce harmful contact mechanics in dysplastic hips may have the potential to further improve clinical outcomes after PAO.

Abstract
AIM Preoperative identification of acetabular corrections that optimally improve joint stability and reduce elevated contact stresses could further reduce osteoarthritis progression in patients with hip dysplasia who are treated with periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). The purpose of this study was to investigate how providing patient-specific, mechanically optimal acetabular reorientations to the surgeon during preoperative planning affected the surgically achieved correction. METHODS Preoperative CT scans were used to create patient-specific hip models for 6 patients scheduled for PAO. A simulated acetabular fragment was extracted from the preoperative pelvis model and computationally rotated to simulate candidate acetabular reorientations. For each candidate, discrete element analysis was used to compute contact stresses during walking, which were summed over the gait cycle and scaled by patient age to obtain chronic contact stress-time exposure. The ideal patient-specific reorientation was identified using a cost function that balances minimising chronic stress exposures and achieving surgically acceptable acetabular coverage angles. The optimal reorientation angles and associated contact mechanics were provided to the surgeon preoperatively. After PAO was performed, a model of the surgically achieved correction was created from a postoperative CT scan. Radiographic coverage and contact mechanics were compared between preoperative, optimal, and surgically achieved orientations. RESULTS While surgically achieved reorientations were not significantly different from optimal reorientations in radiographically measured lateral (p = 0.094) or anterior (p = 0.063) coverage, surgically achieved reorientations had significantly (p = 0.031) reduced total contact area compared to optimal reorientations. The difference in lateral coverage and peak chronic exposure between surgically achieved and optimal reorientations decreased with increasing surgeon experience using the models (R² = 0.758, R2 = 0.630, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Providing hip surgeons with a patient-specific, computationally optimal reorientation during preoperative planning may improve contact mechanics after PAO, which may help reduce osteoarthritis progression in patients with hip dysplasia.

Abstract
Background: This retrospective cross-sectional study investigated the cutoff values (COVs) for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) using a three-dimensional (3D) pelvic model reconstructed using computed tomography (CT). We included 107 healthy Japanese participants and 73 patients who had undergone curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) for DDH between 2012 and 2017. Methods: The hip CT images were adjusted to the anterior pelvic plane (APP), functional pelvic plane (FPP), sagittal anterior center-edge angle (ACEA), and sagittal posterior center-edge angle (PCEA). The lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), acetabular roof obliquity (ARO), anterior acetabular sector angle (AASA), and posterior acetabular sector angle (PASA) were measured. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to calculate the COVs, and the association between the parameters was analyzed using multiple logistic regression. Results: The ARO (≥10.2°) and LCEA (≤22.2°) were independent influencing factors for the APP, whereas the AASA (≤53.1°) and LCEA (≤24.5°) were independent influencing factors for the FPP. Conclusions: The 3D criteria for the diagnosis of DDH in Japanese individuals can identify DDH with insufficient anterior coverage, which anteroposterior plain radiographs cannot visualize, and can help determine indications for acetabular osteotomy.

Abstract
» Anatomic disorders of the acetabular rim are a common, correctable source of hip pain in younger patients.» Some common conditions of involving abnormal acetabular rim morphology include developmental dysplasia of the hip, pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement, acetabular protrusion, and acetabular retroversion.» Treatment option for these conditions were historically limited to open osteotomy and osteoplasty procedures; however, there is increasing use of arthroscopic intervention for these patients.» Arthroscopic intervention has demonstrated short-term success in a variety of focal acetabular rim disorders; however, further research is needed to determine the long-term outcomes of these procedures and their utility in more global pathology.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study was to use computational modeling to determine if surgical correction of hip dysplasia restores hip contact mechanics to those of asymptomatic, radiographically normal hips. METHODS Discrete element analysis (DEA) was used to compute joint contact stresses during the stance phase of normal walking gait for 10 individuals with radiographically normal, asymptomatic hips and 10 age- and weight-matched patients with acetabular dysplasia who underwent periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). RESULTS Mean and peak contact stresses were higher (p < 0.001 and p = 0.036, respectively) in the dysplastic hips than in the matched normal hips. PAO normalised standard radiographic measurements and medialised the location of computed contact stress within the joint. Mean contact stress computed in dysplastic hips throughout the stance phase of gait (median 5.5 MPa, [IQR 3.9-6.1 MPa]) did not significantly decrease after PAO (3.7 MPa, [IQR 3.2-4.8]; p = 0.109) and remained significantly (p < 0.001) elevated compared to radiographically normal hips (2.4 MPa, [IQR 2.2-2.8 MPa]). Peak contact stress demonstrated a similar trend. Joint contact area during the stance phase of gait in the dysplastic hips increased significantly (p = 0.036) after PAO from 395 mm2 (IQR 378-496 mm2) to 595 mm2 (IQR 474-660 mm2), but remained significantly smaller (p = 0.001) than that for radiographically normal hips (median 1120 mm2, IQR 853-1444 mm2). CONCLUSIONS While contact mechanics in dysplastic hips more closely resembled those of normal hips after PAO, the elevated contact stresses and smaller contact areas remaining after PAO indicate ongoing mechanical abnormalities should be expected even after radiographically successful surgical correction.

Abstract
Empirical joint contact mechanics measurement (EJCM; e.g. contact area or force, surface velocities) enables critical investigations of the relationship between changing joint mechanics and the impact on surface-to-surface interactions. In orthopedic biomechanics, understanding the changes to cartilage contact mechanics following joint pathology or aging is critical due to its suggested role in the increased risk of osteoarthritis (OA), which might be due to changed kinematics and kinetics that alter the contact patterns within a joint. This article reviews and discusses EJCM approaches that have been applied to articulating joints such that readers across different disciplines will be informed of the various measurement and analysis techniques used in this field. The approaches reviewed include classical measurement approaches (radiographic and sectioning, dye staining, casting, surface proximity, and pressure measurement), stereophotogrammetry/motion analysis, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and high-speed videoradiography. Perspectives on approaches to advance this field of EJCM are provided, including the value of considering relative velocity in joints, tractional stress, quantification of joint contact area shape, consideration of normalization techniques, net response (superposition) of multiple input variables, and establishing linkages to regional cartilage health status. EJCM measures continue to provide insights to advance our understanding of cartilage health and degeneration and provide avenues to assess the efficacy and guide future directions of developing interventions (e.g. surgical, biological, rehabilitative) to optimize joint's health and function long term.

Clin Orthop Relat Res 2023; 481:51-59. [PMID: 36036766 PMCID: PMC9750588 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) classification systems are based on the size, volume, and location of necrotic lesions. Often-but not always-ONFH results in femoral head collapse. Because acetabular coverage is associated with mechanical stress on the femoral head, it might also be associated with femoral head collapse in patients with ONFH. However, the association between acetabular coverage and femoral head collapse in these patients has not been established. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Is femoral head collapse associated with acetabular coverage or pelvic incidence (PI) in patients with ONFH? (2) Are established predictors of femoral head collapse in ONFH classification systems associated with acetabular coverage? METHODS Between 2008 and 2018, we evaluated 343 hips in 218 patients with ONFH. We considered all patients with ONFH except for those with a traumatic etiology, a history of surgical treatment before collapse, or those with collapse at initial presentation as potentially eligible for this study. Of those, 101 hips with ONFH (50% [50] were in males with a mean age of 44 ± 15 years) met our inclusion criteria. These patients were subsequently divided into two groups: those with femoral head collapse within 12 months (collapse group, 35 hips) and those without femoral head collapse (noncollapse group, 66 hips). No differences in patient demographics were observed between the two groups. CT images were used to measure the PI and acetabular coverage in three planes: the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) in the coronal plane, the anterior and posterior center-edge angle in the sagittal plane, and the anterior and posterior acetabular sector angle in the axial plane; in addition, the difference between these parameters was investigated between the groups. The thresholds for femoral head collapse in the parameters that showed differences were investigated. Necrotic location and size were evaluated using the Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) classification and the Steinberg grade classification, respectively. We examined the relationship between these parameters and classifications. RESULTS The mean LCEA was slightly greater in the noncollapse group than in the collapse group (32° ± 6° versus 28° ± 7°; mean difference 4° [95% CI 1.15° to 6.46°]; p = 0.005); the clinical importance of this small difference is uncertain. There were no differences in PI between the two groups. After accounting for sex, age, BMI, and etiology as confounding factors, as well as acetabular coverage parameters and PI, we found a lower LCEA to be independently associated with increased odds of collapse, although the effect size is small and of questionable importance (OR 1.18 [95% CI 1.06 to 1.33]; p = 0.001). The threshold of LCEA for femoral head collapse was 28° (sensitivity = 0.79, specificity = 0.60, area under the curve = 0.73). The percentage of patients with an LCEA less than 28° was larger in JIC Type C1 (OR 6.52 [95% CI 1.64 to 43.83]; p = 0.006) and C2 (OR 9.84 [95% CI 2.34 to 68.38]; p = 0.001) than in patients with both Type A and Type B. The acetabular coverage data for the excluded patients did not differ from those of the patients included in the analysis. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that acetabular coverage appears to have little, if any, association with the likelihood of collapse in patients with ONFH. We found a small association between a lower LCEA and a higher odds of collapse, but the effect size may not be clinically important. Factors other than acetabular coverage need to be considered, and if our findings are verified by other investigators, osteotomy is unlikely to have a protective role. As the patients in our study were fairly homogeneous in terms of ethnicity and BMI, these factors need to be further investigated to determine whether they are associated with femoral head collapse in ONFH. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, prognostic study.

Intraoperative Fluoroscopy Allows the Reliable Assessment of Deformity Correction during Periacetabular Osteotomy. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11164817.

Abstract
We aimed to determine the accuracy and reliability of measures characterizing anterior, lateral, and posterior acetabular coverage on intraoperative fluoroscopic images compared to postoperative radiographs when performing periacetabular osteotomies (PAOs). A study involving 100 PAOs was initiated applying a standardized intraoperative imaging protocol. Coverage was determined by the lateral center edge angle (LCEA), the Tönnis angle (TA), and the anterior and posterior wall index (AWI, PWI). An intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) model was used to assess interrater (ICC (3,2)) and intrarater (ICC (2,1)) reliability. The ICC (2,2) between analyses obtained from intraoperative fluoroscopy and postoperative radiographs and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were determined and complemented by Bland–Altman analysis, the mean difference, and 95% limits of agreement (LOA). The ICCs were 0.849 for the LCEA (95% CI 0.783–0.896), 0.897 for the TA (95% CI 0.851–0.930), 0.864 for the AWI (95% CI 0.804–0.907), and 0.804 for the PWI (0.722–0.864). The assessed interrater reliability was excellent except for the AWI, which was graded good (ICC = 0.857, 95% CI 0.794–0.902). Interrater agreement was generally good and fair for the AWI (ICC = 0.715, 95% CI 0.603–0.780). For each postoperative radiograph, interrater reliability was good with ICCs ranging from 0.813 (TA) to 0.881 (PWI). Intrarater reliability was good for all measurements and excellent for the preoperative TA (ICC = 0.993, 95% CI 0.984–0.997) and PWI (ICC = 0.954, 95% CI 0.919–0.97). In summary, we confirm the validity and reliability of intraoperative fluoroscopy as an alternative imaging modality to radiography to evaluate acetabular fragment orientation during PAO. We affirm the LCEA and TA as precise measures for lateral head coverage, and show the suitability of the AWI and PWI to steadily assess acetabular version.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The anteroposterior (ap) radiograph of the pelvis is decisive in the diagnosis of different pathologies of the hip joint. Technical advantages have reduced the radiation dose of pelvic CT to levels comparable to radiographs. The purpose of this study was to validate if standard radiographic parameters (lateral center edge angle, medial center edge angle, acetabular index, acetabular arc, extrusion index, crossover sign and posterior wall sign) can accurately be determined on radiograph-like projections reconstructed from the CT dataset pre- and postoperatively. METHODS A consecutive series of patient with symptomatic dysplasia of the hip and a full radiologic workup (radiographs and CT scan pre- and postoperatively) who underwent periacetabular osteotomy were included. Standard radiographic parameters were compared between radiographs and radiograph-like projections by two authors pre- and postoperatively. RESULTS A total of 16 hips (32 radiographs/32 radiograph-like projections) were included in the study. No significant difference was found between the radiographs and radiograph-like images for all parameter for both examiners. ICC between radiograph and radiograph-like projections for all investigated parameters showed good to excellent reliability (0.78-0.99) pre- and postoperatively. CONCLUSION Radiograph-like projections show comparable results to radiographs with regard to the important investigated parameters (lateral center edge angle, medial center edge angle, acetabular index, acetabular arc, extrusion index, crossover sign and posterior wall sign). Thus, ultra-low-dose CT scans may reduce the need for conventional radiographs in pre- and postoperative analyses of 3-dimensional hip pathologies in the future, as the advantages increasingly outweigh the disadvantages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia is characterized by insufficient acetabular coverage around the femoral head, which leads to instability, pain, and injury. Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) aims to restore acetabular coverage and function, but its effects on capsular mechanics and joint stability are still unclear. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of PAO on capsular mechanics and joint range of motion in dysplastic hips. METHODS Twelve cadaveric dysplastic hips (denuded to bone and capsule) were mounted onto a robotic tester and tested in multiple positions: (1) full extension, (2) neutral 0°, (3) flexion of 30°, (4) flexion of 60°, and (5) flexion of 90°. In each position, the hips underwent internal and external rotation, abduction, and adduction using 5 Nm of torque. Each hip then underwent PAO to reorient the acetabular fragment, preserving the capsular ligaments, and was retested. RESULTS The PAO reduced internal rotation in flexion of 90° (∆IR = -5°; p = 0.003), and increased external rotation in flexion of 60° (∆ER = +7°; p = 0.001) and flexion of 90° (∆ER = +11°; p = 0.001). The PAO also reduced abduction in extension (∆ABD = -10°; p = 0.002), neutral 0° (∆ABD = -7°; p = 0.001), and flexion of 30° (∆ABD = -8°; p = 0.001), but increased adduction in neutral 0° (∆ADD = +9°; p = 0.001), flexion of 30° (∆ADD = +11°; p = 0.002), and flexion of 60° (∆ADD = +11°; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS PAO caused reductions in hip abduction and internal rotation but greater increases in hip adduction and external rotation. The osseous acetabular structure and capsule both play a role in the balance between joint mobility and stability after PAO.

Effect of coronal plane acetabular correction on joint contact pressure in Periacetabular osteotomy: a finite-element analysis. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:48.

Abstract
Background The ideal acetabular position for optimizing hip joint biomechanics in periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) remains unclear. We aimed to determine the relationship between acetabular correction in the coronal plane and joint contact pressure (CP) and identify morphological factors associated with residual abnormal CP after correction. Methods Using CT images from 44 patients with hip dysplasia, we performed three patterns of virtual PAOs on patient-specific 3D hip models; the acetabulum was rotated laterally to the lateral center-edge angles (LCEA) of 30°, 35°, and 40°. Finite-element analysis was used to calculate the CP of the acetabular cartilage during a single-leg stance. Results Coronal correction to the LCEA of 30° decreased the median maximum CP 0.5-fold compared to preoperatively (p < 0.001). Additional correction to the LCEA of 40° further decreased CP in 15 hips (34%) but conversely increased CP in 29 hips (66%). The increase in CP was associated with greater preoperative extrusion index (p = 0.030) and roundness index (p = 0.038). Overall, virtual PAO failed to normalize CP in 11 hips (25%), and a small anterior wall index (p = 0.049) and a large roundness index (p = 0.003) were associated with residual abnormal CP. Conclusions The degree of acetabular correction in the coronal plane where CP is minimized varied among patients. Coronal plane correction alone failed to normalize CP in 25% of patients in this study. In patients with an anterior acetabular deficiency (anterior wall index < 0.21) and an aspherical femoral head (roundness index > 53.2%), coronal plane correction alone may not normalize CP. Further studies are needed to clarify the effectiveness of multiplanar correction, including in the sagittal and axial planes, in optimizing the hip joint’s contact mechanics.

A Finite-element Analysis Study. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2022; 480:67-78. [PMID: 34228657 PMCID: PMC8673984 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000001893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2020] [Accepted: 06/11/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inappropriate sagittal plane correction can result in an increased risk of osteoarthritis progression after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). Individual and postural variations in sagittal pelvic tilt, along with acetabular deformity, affect joint contact mechanics in dysplastic hips and may impact the direction and degree of acetabular correction. Finite-element analyses that account for physiologic pelvic tilt may provide valuable insight into the effect of PAO on the contact mechanics of dysplastic hips, which may lead to improved acetabular correction during PAO. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We performed virtual PAO using finite-element models with reference to the standing pelvic position to clarify (1) whether lateral rotation of the acetabulum normalizes the joint contact pressure, (2) risk factors for abnormal contact pressure after lateral rotation of the acetabulum, and (3) whether additional anterior rotation of the acetabulum further reduces contact pressure. METHODS Between 2016 and 2020, 85 patients (92 hips) underwent PAO to treat hip dysplasia. Eighty-two patients with hip dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle < 20°) were included. Patients with advanced osteoarthritis, femoral head deformity, prior hip or spine surgery, or poor-quality images were excluded. Thirty-eight patients (38 hips) were eligible to participate in this study. All patients were women, with a mean age of 39 ± 10 years. Thirty-three women volunteers without a history of hip disease were reviewed as control participants. Individuals with a lateral center-edge angle < 25° or poor-quality images were excluded. Sixteen individuals (16 hips) with a mean age of 36 ± 7 years were eligible as controls. Using CT images, we developed patient-specific three-dimensional surface hip models with the standing pelvic position as a reference. The loading scenario was based on single-leg stance. Four patterns of virtual PAO were performed in the models. First, the acetabular fragment was rotated laterally in the coronal plane so that the lateral center-edge angle was 30°; then, anterior rotation in the sagittal plane was added by 0°, 5°, 10°, and 15°. We developed finite-element models for each acetabular position and performed a nonlinear contact analysis to calculate the joint contact pressure of the acetabular cartilage. The normal range of the maximum joint contact pressure was calculated to be < 4.1 MPa using a receiver operating characteristic curve. A paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test with Bonferroni correction was used to compare joint contact pressures among acetabular positions. We evaluated the association of joint contact pressure with the patient-specific sagittal pelvic tilt and acetabular version and coverage using Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients. An exploratory univariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify which of the preoperative factors (CT measurement parameters and sagittal pelvic tilt) were associated with abnormal contact pressure after lateral rotation of the acetabulum. Variables with p values < 0.05 (anterior center-edge angle and sagittal pelvic tilt) were included in a multivariable model to identify the independent influence of each factor. RESULTS Lateral rotation of the acetabulum decreased the median maximum contact pressure compared with that before virtual PAO (3.7 MPa [range 2.2-6.7] versus 7.2 MPa [range 4.1-14 MPa], difference of medians 3.5 MPa; p < 0.001). The resulting maximum contact pressures were within the normal range (< 4.1 MPa) in 63% of the hips (24 of 38 hips). The maximum contact pressure after lateral acetabular rotation was negatively correlated with the standing pelvic tilt (anterior pelvic plane angle) (ρ = -0.52; p < 0.001) and anterior center-edge angle (ρ = -0.47; p = 0.003). After controlling for confounding variables such as the lateral center-edge angle and sagittal pelvic tilt, we found that a decreased preoperative anterior center-edge angle (per 1°; odds ratio 1.14 [95% CI 1.01-1.28]; p = 0.01) was independently associated with elevated contact pressure (≥ 4.1 MPa) after lateral rotation; a preoperative anterior center-edge angle < 32° in the standing pelvic position was associated with elevated contact pressure (sensitivity 57%, specificity 96%, area under the curve 0.77). Additional anterior rotation further decreased the joint contact pressure; the maximum contact pressures were within the normal range in 74% (28 of 38 hips), 76% (29 of 38 hips), and 84% (32 of 38 hips) of the hips when the acetabulum was rotated anteriorly by 5°, 10°, and 15°, respectively. CONCLUSION Via virtual PAO, normal joint contact pressure was achieved in 63% of patients by normalizing the lateral acetabular coverage. However, lateral acetabular rotation was insufficient to normalize the joint contact pressure in patients with more posteriorly tilted pelvises and anterior acetabular deficiency. In patients with a preoperative anterior center-edge angle < 32° in the standing pelvic position, additional anterior rotation is expected to be a useful guide to normalize the joint contact pressure. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This virtual PAO study suggests that biomechanics-based planning for PAO should incorporate not only the morphology of the hip but also the physiologic pelvic tilt in the weightbearing position in order to customize acetabular reorientation for each patient.

Abstract
Several mechanical factors have been related to slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). Main aim of this study is to investigate the acetabular coverage and acetabular version in unilateral SCFE hips in order to detect a potential pincer-type deformity as predisposing factor; second, we compared those measurements either to the contralateral, uninvolved hips either to a matched healthy control population. A total of 85 patients treated for unilateral SCFE were retrospectively reviewed. The lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) and the Tönnis angle were used to assess acetabular coverage, whereas acetabular retroversion was defined by positive prominent ischial spine (PIS), cross-over sign (COS) and posterior wall sign (PWS). Angles and signs of the affected hips were compared to the contralateral hips and to a matched cohort undergoing an abdominal/pelvic computed tomography for nonorthopedic-related diseases. Affected and unaffected hips of patients with unilateral SCFE had similar morphology in terms of LCEA 28.7° vs. 28° (P = 0.4), Tönnis angle 9° vs. 9° (P = 0.1) and retroversion signs with concomitant rate of PWS and COS 57.6% vs. 50.5% (P = 0.4), PIS 56.4% vs. 49.4% (P = 0.4). Matched healthy controls vs. the affected hips showed a lower LCEA (P < 0.001) and higher Tönnis angle (P < 0.001) in conjunction with a lower incidence of acetabular retroversion: PWS and COS 40% vs. 57.6% (P = 0.01), PIS 43% vs. 56.4% (P = 0.07). A significant retroversion and increased overcoverage were observed in SCFE patients compared to matched healthy controls. In unilateral SCFE, the involved and uninvolved hips showed a substantial symmetry.

Abstract
Background Although a variety of standardized measurements have been described to evaluate acetabular dysplasia, no single measurement is without limitations. We describe the Sourcil Index (SI), a novel measure of the weight-bearing surface of the acetabulum on anteroposterior pelvis films. The SI is the angle formed by the medial and lateral margins of the sourcil and the center of rotation of the femoral head. Methods Anteroposterior pelvis radiographs of skeletally mature patients from 2015 were reviewed. Studies with fractures or implants were excluded. Films were read by 2 orthopedic surgeons and a radiologist 3 times each, 8 weeks apart. The SI, Sharp's Angle (SA), and lateral center edge angle (LCEA) were recorded. Pearson intraclass correlation coefficients with 95% confidence intervals were calculated. The SI was then compared to the SA and LCEA to preliminarily assess diagnostic accuracy. Results Five hundred thirty-five hips in 292 patients met inclusion. Intraobserver reliability is as follows: SI = 0.95 (0.93-0.98), LCEA = 0.89 (0.82 -0.96), and SA = 0.90 (0.85-0.96). Interobserver reliability is as follows: SI = 0.90 (0.84-0.94), SA = 0.78 (0.64-0.86), and LCEA = 0.73 (0.56-0.82). There were 51 dysplastic hips within this cohort. Conclusion The SI is a reproducible measurement on plain radiographs. The SI is a two-dimensional representation of the size of the weight-bearing surface of the acetabulum and could provide an estimation of joint contact pressures. Used with existing measures, the SI may provide a more nuanced understanding of acetabular morphology.

Abstract
AIMS Rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) has been reported to be effective in improving symptoms and preventing osteoarthritis (OA) progression in patients with mild to severe develomental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). However, some patients develop secondary OA even when the preoperative joint space is normal; determining who will progress to OA is difficult. We evaluated whether the preoperative cartilage condition may predict OA progression following surgery using T2 mapping MRI. METHODS We reviewed 61 hips with early-stage OA in 61 patients who underwent RAO for DDH. They underwent preoperative and five-year postoperative radiological analysis of the hip. Those with a joint space narrowing of more than 1 mm were considered to have 'OA progression'. Preoperative assessment of articular cartilage was also performed using 3T MRI with the T2 mapping technique. The region of interest was defined as the weightbearing portion of the acetabulum and femoral head. RESULTS There were 16 patients with postoperative OA progression. The T2 values of the centre to the anterolateral region of the acetabulum and femoral head in the OA progression cases were significantly higher than those in patients without OA progression. The preoperative T2 values in those regions were positively correlated with the narrowed joint space width. The receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the T2 value of the central portion in the acetabulum provided excellent discrimination, with OA progression patients having an area under the curve of 0.858. Furthermore, logistic regression analysis showed T2 values of the centre to the acetabulum's anterolateral portion as independent predictors of subsequent OA progression (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This was the first study to evaluate the relationship between intra-articular degeneration using T2 mapping MRI and postoperative OA progression. Our findings suggest that preoperative T2 values of the hip can be better prognostic factors for OA progression than radiological measures following RAO.

What Mid-term Patient-reported Outcome Measure Scores, Reoperations, and Complications Are Associated with Concurrent Hip Arthroscopy and Periacetabular Osteotomy to Treat Dysplasia with Associated Intraarticular Abnormalities? Clin Orthop Relat Res 2021; 479:1068-1077. [PMID: 33300755 PMCID: PMC8051986 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000001599] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2020] [Accepted: 11/09/2020] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a well-accepted treatment for acetabular dysplasia, but treatment success is not uniform. Concurrent hip arthroscopy has been proposed for select patients to address intraarticular abnormalities. The patient-reported outcomes, complications, and reoperations for concurrent arthroscopy and PAO to treat acetabular dysplasia remain unclear. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What are the functional outcome scores among select patients treated with PAO plus concurrent hip arthroscopy at mid-term follow-up? (2) What factors are associated with conversion to THA or persistent symptoms (modified Harris hip score ≤ 70 or WOMAC pain subscore ≥ 10)? (3) What proportion of patients underwent further hip preservation surgery at mid-term follow-up? (4) What are the complications associated with the procedure? METHODS Between November 2005 and December 2012, 78 patients (81 hips) who presented with symptomatic acetabular dysplasia-defined as a lateral center-edge angle less than 20° with hip pain for more than 3 months that interfered with daily function-had undergone unsuccessful nonsurgical treatment, had associated intraarticular abnormalities on MRI, and underwent combined hip arthroscopy and PAO. Eleven patients did not have minimum 4-year follow-up and were excluded, leaving 67 patients (70 hips) who met our inclusion criteria and had a mean follow-up duration of 6.5 ± 1.6 years. We retrospectively evaluated patient-reported outcomes at final follow-up using the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score, the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and the WOMAC pain subscore. Conversion to THA or persistent symptoms were considered clinical endpoints. Repeat surgical procedures were drawn from a prospectively maintained database, and major complications were graded according to the validated Clavien-Dindo classification (Grade III or IV). Student t-tests, chi-square tests, and Fisher exact tests identified the association of patient factors, radiographic measures, and surgical details with clinical endpoints. For patients who underwent bilateral procedures, only the first hip was included in our analyses. RESULTS At final follow-up, the mean mHHS for all patients improved from a mean ± SD of 55 ± 19 points to 85 ± 17 points (p < 0.001), the UCLA activity score improved from 6.5 ± 2.7 points to 7.5 ± 2.2 points (p = 0.01), and the WOMAC pain score improved from 9.1 ± 4.3 points to 3.2 ± 3.9 points (p < 0.001). Three percent (2 of 67) of patients underwent subsequent THA, while 21% (15 of 70) of hips were persistently symptomatic, defined as mHHS less than or equal to 70 or WOMAC pain subscore greater than or equal to 10. Univariate analyses indicated that no patient demographics, preoperative or postoperative radiographic metrics, or intraoperative findings or procedures were associated with subsequent THA or symptomatic hips. Worse baseline mHHS and WOMAC pain scores were associated with subsequent THA or symptomatic hips. Seven percent (5 of 67) of patients underwent repeat hip preservation surgery for recurrent symptoms, and 4% (3 of 67) of patients had major complications (Clavien-Dindo Grade III or IV). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that concurrent hip arthroscopy and PAO to treat symptomatic acetabular dysplasia (with intraarticular abnormalities) has good clinical outcomes at mid-term follow-up in many patients; however, persistent symptoms or conversion to THA affected almost a quarter of the sample. We noted an acceptable complication profile. Further study is needed to directly compare this approach to more traditional techniques that do not involve arthroscopy. We do not use isolated hip arthroscopy to treat symptomatic acetabular dysplasia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study.

Overcorrection of the acetabular roof angle or anterior center-edge angle may cause decrease of range of motion after curved periacetabular osteotomy. J Hip Preserv Surg 2020; 7:583-590. [PMID: 33948214 PMCID: PMC8081436 DOI: 10.1093/jhps/hnaa065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Revised: 09/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the correction of radiographic parameters and clinical range of motion (ROM) after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). Sixty-nine patients with hip dysplasia were enrolled and underwent curved PAO. The pre- and post-operative 3D center-edge (CE) angles, total anteversion (acetabular and femoral anteversion), and radiographic acetabular roof angle were measured and compared with the post-operative ROM. The aim of surgery was to rotate the central acetabular fragment laterally without anterior or posterior rotation. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that post-operative internal rotation at 90° flexion was significantly associated with the post-operative Tönnis sourcil angle (rr = 0.31, P = 0.02) and that the post-operative ROM of flexion and internal rotation at 90° flexion were significantly associated with the anterior CE (flex; rr = -0.44, P = 0.001, internal rotation at 90° flexion; rr = -0.44, P < 0.001). However, we found no association between the lateral CE, femoral anteversion, or total anteversion and the post-operative ROM. We demonstrated that the overcorrection of the acetabular roof angle or anterior CE angle may cause a decrease in the range of motion after curved PAO. Therefore, surgeons need to be careful during surgery to prevent the overcorrection of the weight-bearing area and anterior acetabular coverage of the acetabular fragment to avoid femoroacetabular impingement after PAO.

MRI-based 3D models of the hip joint enables radiation-free computer-assisted planning of periacetabular osteotomy for treatment of hip dysplasia using deep learning for automatic segmentation. Eur J Radiol Open 2020; 8:100303. [PMID: 33364259 PMCID: PMC7753932 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejro.2020.100303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Revised: 11/27/2020] [Accepted: 11/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Both Hip Dysplasia(DDH) and Femoro-acetabular-Impingement(FAI) are complex three-dimensional hip pathologies causing hip pain and osteoarthritis in young patients. 3D-MRI-based models were used for radiation-free computer-assisted surgical planning. Automatic segmentation of MRI-based 3D-models are preferred because manual segmentation is time-consuming.To investigate(1) the difference and(2) the correlation for femoral head coverage(FHC) between automatic MR-based and manual CT-based 3D-models and (3) feasibility of preoperative planning in symptomatic patients with hip diseases. Methods We performed an IRB-approved comparative, retrospective study of 31 hips(26 symptomatic patients with hip dysplasia or FAI). 3D MRI sequences and CT scans of the hip were acquired. Preoperative MRI included axial-oblique T1 VIBE sequence(0.8 mm3 isovoxel) of the hip joint. Manual segmentation of MRI and CT scans were performed. Automatic segmentation of MRI-based 3D-models was performed using deep learning. Results (1)The difference between automatic and manual segmentation of MRI-based 3D hip joint models was below 1 mm(proximal femur 0.2 ± 0.1 mm and acetabulum 0.3 ± 0.5 mm). Dice coefficients of the proximal femur and the acetabulum were 98 % and 97 %, respectively. (2)The correlation for total FHC was excellent and significant(r = 0.975, p < 0.001) between automatic MRI-based and manual CT-based 3D-models. Correlation for total FHC (r = 0.979, p < 0.001) between automatic and manual MR-based 3D models was excellent.(3)Preoperative planning and simulation of periacetabular osteotomy was feasible in all patients(100 %) with hip dysplasia or acetabular retroversion. Conclusions Automatic segmentation of MRI-based 3D-models using deep learning is as accurate as CT-based 3D-models for patients with hip diseases of childbearing age. This allows radiation-free and patient-specific preoperative simulation and surgical planning of periacetabular osteotomy for patients with DDH.

Abstract
Accurate and consistent mental interpretation of fluoroscopy to determine the position and orientation of acetabular bone fragments in 3D space is difficult. We propose a computer assisted approach that uses a single fluoroscopic view and quickly reports the pose of an acetabular fragment without any user input or initialization. Intraoperatively, but prior to any osteotomies, two constellations of metallic ball-bearings (BBs) are injected into the wing of a patient's ilium and lateral superior pubic ramus. One constellation is located on the expected acetabular fragment, and the other is located on the remaining, larger, pelvis fragment. The 3D locations of each BB are reconstructed using three fluoroscopic views and 2D/3D registrations to a preoperative CT scan of the pelvis. The relative pose of the fragment is established by estimating the movement of the two BB constellations using a single fluoroscopic view taken after osteotomy and fragment relocation. BB detection and inter-view correspondences are automatically computed throughout the processing pipeline. The proposed method was evaluated on a multitude of fluoroscopic images collected from six cadaveric surgeries performed bilaterally on three specimens. Mean fragment rotation error was 2.4 ± 1.0 degrees, mean translation error was 2.1 ± 0.6 mm, and mean 3D lateral center edge angle error was 1.0 ± 0.5 degrees. The average runtime of the single-view pose estimation was 0.7 ± 0.2 s. The proposed method demonstrates accuracy similar to other state of the art systems which require optical tracking systems or multiple-view 2D/3D registrations with manual input. The errors reported on fragment poses and lateral center edge angles are within the margins required for accurate intraoperative evaluation of femoral head coverage.

Abstract
Classical indications for hip preserving surgery are: femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI) (intra- and extra-articular), hip dysplasia, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, residual deformities after Perthes disease, avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Pre-operative evaluation of the pathomorphology is crucial for surgical planning including radiographs as the basic modality and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or computed tomography (CT) to evaluate further intra-articular lesions and osseous deformities. Two main mechanisms of intra-articular impingement have been described:
(1) Inclusion type FAI (‘cam type’). (2) Impaction type FAI (‘pincer type’).
Either arthroscopic or open treatment can be performed depending on the severity of deformity. Slipped capital femoral epiphysis often results in a cam-like deformity of the hip. In acute cases a subcapital re-alignment (modified Dunn procedure) of the femoral epiphysis is an effective therapy. Perthes disease can lead to complex femoro-acetabular deformity which predisposes to impingement with/without joint incongruency and requires a comprehensive diagnostic workup for surgical planning. Developmental dysplasia of the hip results in a static overload of the acetabular rim and early osteoarthritis. Surgical correction by means of periacetabular osteotomy offers good long-term results.

Is lateral acetabular rotation sufficient to correct anterolateral deficiency in periacetabular reorientation osteotomy? A CT-Based simulation study. J Orthop Sci 2020; 25:1008-1014. [PMID: 32035753 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2019.12.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2019] [Revised: 11/27/2019] [Accepted: 12/28/2019] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Residual acetabular deficiency after periacetabular reorientation osteotomy can result in suboptimal outcome. The optimal algorithm of acetabular fragment correction to achieve normal anterolateral acetabular coverage is not well characterized. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of residual anterolateral deficiency after lateral acetabular rotation and to evaluate the ability of additional sagittal and axial rotation of the acetabulum to normalize the acetabular coverage in periacetabular osteotomy. METHODS We performed computed tomography-based simulated periacetabular osteotomy on 85 patients (85 hips) with hip dysplasia. The acetabular fragment was rotated laterally to achieve a lateral center-edge angle (CEA) of 30°. For hips with residual anterolateral deficiency, which were identified based on the reference interval of the anterior CEA, the acetabulum was further rotated in the sagittal or axial direction in 5-degree increments from 5° to 20°, and the ability of these two manoeuvres to restore a normal anterior CEA was assessed. RESULTS After lateral acetabular rotation, 16 hips (19%) had residual anterolateral deficiency, 67 hips (79%) had normal acetabular coverage, and 2 hips (2.4%) had acetabular overcoverage. A preoperative anterior CEA <37° predicted residual deficiency (sensitivity, 94%; specificity, 81%). Additional anterior sagittal rotation was more effective than posterior axial rotation in normalizing the anterior CEA, while minimizing the decrease in posterior CEA. The highest number of hips with normal anterior and posterior CEA was noted at 10° sagittal rotation (81%), which was followed by 15° sagittal rotation (63%). CONCLUSIONS Normal anterolateral coverage was achieved in 79% of patients after rotating the acetabulum laterally. However, lateral rotation of the acetabulum may be insufficient to correct the anterolateral deficiency in patients with an anterior CEA of <37°. In them, additional 10°-15° anterior sagittal rotation may be appropriate to achieve sufficient anterolateral coverage while retaining posterolateral coverage.

Abstract
This study observed anterior coverage extent after lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without anterior or posterior rotation, during curved periacetabular osteotomy by three-dimensional simulation, and determined if preoperative pelvic morphology affects postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion. Thirty patients scheduled for consecutive primary curved periacetabular osteotomy for developmental hip dysplasia at our hospital between 2016 and 2017 were included. Virtual acetabular osteotomies were performed to achieve a postoperative lateral center-edge angle of 30°. We measured anterior center-edge angles before curved periacetabular osteotomy through the medial one-third and one-quarter of the femoral head as an index reflecting the pelvic morphology medial to the femoral head center. The range of motion simulation was performed after virtual curved periacetabular osteotomy. Single linear regression analysis was performed to examine correlations between preoperative pelvic morphology parameters and anterior center-edge angles after virtual osteotomy. Furthermore, linear regression analysis was used to assess correlations between center-edge angles and simulated range of motions (P < .05). Anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy was more strongly correlated with the anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = .92, P < .0001) and one-quarter (r = .84, P < .0001) of the femoral head. Flexion angle and internal rotation at 90° flexion showed significant correlations with anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = -.62, P = .0003; r = -.57, P = .001) and one-quarter (r = -.60, P = .0005; r = -.55, P = .002) of the femoral head and anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy (r = -.67, P = .0005; r = -.62, P = .0003). Measuring preoperative parameters reflecting pelvic morphology enables surgeons to predict postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion in curved periacetabular osteotomy cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that preoperative pelvic morphology may affect postoperative anterior coverage and postoperative clinical range of motion (ROM) leading to postoperative pincer type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between preoperative bone morphology and postoperative ROMs to prevent postoperative FAI after periacetabular osteotomy. METHODS Sixty-eight patients (71 hips) with hip dysplasia participated in this study and underwent curved PAO. The acetabular fragment was usually moved only by lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without intraoperative anterior or posterior rotation. The pre- and postoperative three-dimensional center-edge (CE) angles were measured and compared to the postoperative ROM. RESULTS Preoperative medial anterior CE angle was significantly associated with postoperative anterior CE angle, and the correlation coefficient of medial anterior CE and postoperative anterior CE was higher than the coefficient of preoperative anterior CE and postoperative anterior CE (preoperative anterior CE, rr = 0.27, p = 0.020; preoperative medial anterior CE, rr = 0.54, p < 0.001). Femoral anteversion correlated with postoperative internal rotation angle at 90° flexion (r = 0.32, p = 0.021). In multiple linear regressions, postoperative internal rotation angle at 90° flexion angle was significantly affected by both medial CE angle through the medial one fourth of femoral head and femoral anteversion. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative medial anterior acetabular coverage was associated with postoperative anterior acetabular coverage. Further, the combination with preoperative medial anterior acetabular coverage and femoral anteversion can predict postoperative internal rotation at 90° flexion. Therefore, the direction of acetabular reorientation should be carefully considered when the patients have high preoperative medial anterior CE angle and small femoral anteversion.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify the incidence of anteflexion impairment after rotational acetabular osteotomy based on patient-reported outcome measures, and the morphological factors and postoperative bony range of motion associated with anteflexion impairment at 2 years postoperatively. We analyzed 26 patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip who underwent rotational acetabular osteotomy at our institution. Using questionnaires, we defined anteflexion impairment as difficulty in clipping toenails and pulling up and removing socks. Morphological parameters and bony range of motion measured using a postoperative three-dimensional surface model, were compared between the subjects with and without anteflexion impairment. The incidence of anteflexion impairment was 69% at 6 months, 35% at 1 year, and 12% at 2 years after rotational acetabular osteotomy. The mean bony flexion angle was smaller in subjects with impairment than in those without impairment. The mean internal rotation (IR) angle at 90° of flexion was smaller in subjects with impairment than in those without impairment. The incidence of impairment was significantly higher in subjects with both less than or equal to 105° of bony flexion and less than or equal to 20° of IR at 90° of flexion than in the remaining subjects. No significant difference was observed in postoperative femoral head coverage and preoperative morphological parameters including spinal condition between the two groups. To prevent femoroacetabular impingement after rotational acetabular osteotomy, surgeons need to reorient the acetabulum to restore postoperative bony flexion to more than or equal to 105° and/or postoperative IR range of motion to more than or equal to 20° at 90° of flexion.

Abstract
Pelvic sagittal inclination (PSI) significantly affects the femoral head coverage by the acetabulum in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), while no reports have quantified PSI in DDH patients in the supine and standing positions. Furthermore, little is known about how PSI changes after periacetabular osteotomies. Herein, PSI in the supine and standing positions was quantified in DDH patients preoperatively and postoperatively. Twenty-five patients with DDH who had undergone periacetabular osteotomies were analyzed. The preoperative PSI and the PSI 2 years after surgery were measured in the supine and standing positions using the image registration technique between radiographs and computed tomographic images. The percentage of patients who showed PSI changes of more than 10° from the supine to the standing position was quantified. PSI changed 8.2 ± 5.0° posteriorly from the supine to the standing position during the preoperative period. Posterior pelvic tilt of more than 10° was found in nine cases (36%). Two years after periacetabular osteotomies, the postural PSI change was 7.1 ± 3.9° posteriorly. When the preoperative and postoperative PSI values were compared, PSI in the standing position did not differ (p = 0.20). Similarly, the amount of PSI change from the supine to standing position was not significantly different (p = 0.26). In conclusion, posterior pelvic tilt in the standing position was found preoperatively in symptomatic DDH patients, and it remained for 2 years after periacetabular osteotomies. This postural change in PSI does not seem to influence the outcome of periacetabular osteotomy. However, during preoperative planning, surgeons should recognize that acetabular anteversion or anterior acetabular coverage differs between the supine and standing positions in some patients with DDH. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE State-of-the-art navigation systems for pelvic osteotomies use optical systems with external fiducials. In this paper, we propose the use of X-ray navigation for pose estimation of periacetabular fragments without fiducials. METHODS A two-dimensional/three-dimensional (2-D/3-D) registration pipeline was developed to recover fragment pose. This pipeline was tested through an extensive simulation study and six cadaveric surgeries. Using osteotomy boundaries in the fluoroscopic images, the preoperative plan was refined to more accurately match the intraoperative shape. RESULTS In simulation, average fragment pose errors were 1.3 ° /1.7 mm when the planned fragment matched the intraoperative fragment, 2.2 ° /2.1 mm when the plan was not updated to match the true shape, and 1.9 ° /2.0 mm when the fragment shape was intraoperatively estimated. In cadaver experiments, the average pose errors were 2.2 ° /2.2 mm, 3.8 ° /2.5 mm, and 3.5 ° /2.2 mm when registering with the actual fragment shape, a preoperative plan, and an intraoperatively refined plan, respectively. Average errors of the lateral center edge angle were less than 2 ° for all fragment shapes in simulation and cadaver experiments. CONCLUSION The proposed pipeline is capable of accurately reporting femoral head coverage within a range clinically identified for long-term joint survivability. SIGNIFICANCE Human interpretation of fragment pose is challenging and usually restricted to rotation about a single anatomical axis. The proposed pipeline provides an intraoperative estimate of rigid pose with respect to all anatomical axes, is compatible with minimally invasive incisions, and has no dependence on external fiducials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze regional muscle CT density and bulk in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and hip dysplasia (HD) versus controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who obtained perioperative CT imaging for FAI and HD before surgery were retrospectively studied. Asymptomatic controls included for comparison. Two readers independently evaluated regional hip muscle [iliopsoas (IP), rectus femoris (RF), gluteus minimus (Gm), and medius (GM)] density, muscle area, and muscle circumference. Inter-observer reliability calculated using intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS A consecutive series of 25 FAI patients, 16 HD patients, and 38 controls were recruited in the study. FAI patients had significantly greater Gm and GM circumferences as well as greater RF and IP areas on the normal side compared to the asymptomatic control group (p values 0.004, 0.032, 0.033, and 0.028, respectively). In addition, Gm and RF circumferences and RF area were significantly larger (p values 0.029, 0.036, and 0.014, respectively) in FAI patients on the affected side compared to the control group. HD patients had significantly smaller Gm and GM circumferences on the affected side than normal side measurements in FAI group (p values 0.043 and 0.003, respectively). Normal side GM circumference was also smaller in HD patients than normal side FAI hips (p value 0.02). There was no significant difference between the measurements on normal and abnormal sides in each disease group. No significant difference was found between measurements of HD compared to controls (p > 0.05). No muscle density differences were seen among different groups. There was moderate to excellent inter-reader reliability for all measurements except Gm muscle density. CONCLUSIONS Muscle analysis was able to quantify differences among patients with FAI, HD, and asymptomatic controls. These changes could indicate either a muscle imbalance contributing to the pathology or disuse atrophy, which may have implications for specific muscle-strengthening therapies and rehabilitation procedures in such patients.

Abstract
Background Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) can lead to pain and premature secondary osteoarthritis at an early stage. Joint-preserving osteotomy is an established solution to this problem. In contrast, a conservative approach would result in pain persistence, ultimately raising the patients question for a possible date of expected prosthesis implantation. The aim of the study was to identify the relationship between the dysplastic hip anatomy and the time of prosthesis implantation in order to enable prognostic predictions in younger patients with symptomatic DDH. Materials and methods Data from 129 hips who received THA due to secondary DDH osteoarthritis were evaluated. The preoperative hip anatomy was evaluated for AI and LCE angle. Multiple linear regression analyses were then used to correlate the influence of these parameters with the patient’s age at the time of surgery. In addition, a graphical relationship was derived by the method of power least squares curve fitting with second-degree polynomials. Results The mean age for THA was 54.3 ± 11 years. The time of surgery correlated significantly with LCE (0.37) and AI (− 0.3) (p < 0.001). The mean age of patients with LCE angle ≤ 10° was 41.9 ± 14.0 years, for LCE 11–20° 52.7 ± 9.5 years, and for LCE 21–30° 57.0 ± 10.3 years. The following formula could then be determined for the calculation of the potential patient age at the time of THA as a function of LCE angle: age pTHA = 40.2 + 0.8 × LCE angle − 0.01 × (LCE angle)2. Conclusion A significant correlation between the extent of dysplasia and the time of prosthesis implantation was identified. In particular, the LCE and the AI correlated strongly with the time of implantation. The more dysplastic the angles were, the sooner the THA was necessary. Using the calculations presented in this study, the probable age of prosthesis implantation can be prognosticated and included in a counseling session about treatment options for DDH.

Abstract
Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is an effective approach for surgical treatment of hip dysplasia in young adults. However, achieving an optimal acetabular reorientation during PAO is the most critical and challenging step. Routinely, the correct positioning of the acetabular fragment largely depends on the surgeon's experience and is done under fluoroscopy to provide the surgeon with continuous live x-ray guidance. Our developed system starts with a fully automatic detection of the acetabular rim, which allows for quantifying the acetabular 3D morphology with parameters such as acetabular orientation, femoral head extrusion index (EI), lateral center-edge (LCE) angle, and total and regional femoral head coverage (FHC) ratio for computer-assisted diagnosis, planning, and simulation of PAO. Intraoperative navigation is conducted to implement the preoperative plan. Two validation studies were conducted on four sawbone models to evaluate the efficacy of the system intraoperatively and postoperatively. By comparing the preoperatively planned situation with the intraoperatively achieved situation, average errors of 0.6° ± 0.3°, 0.3° ± 0.2°, and 1.1° ± 1.1° were found, respectively, along three motion directions (flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, and external rotation/internal rotation). In addition, by comparing the preoperatively planned situation with the postoperative results, average errors of 0.9° ± 0.3° and 0.9° ± 0.7° were found for inclination and anteversion, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) is one of the surgical treatments for acetabular dysplasia, and satisfactory results have been reported. We evaluated the postoperative changes of articular cartilage and whether the pre-operative condition of the articular cartilage influences the clinical results using T2 mapping MRI. METHODS We reviewed 31 hips with early stage osteoarthritis in 31 patients (mean age, 39.6 years), including three men and 28 women who underwent RAO for hip dysplasia. Clinical evaluations including Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score and Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire (JHEQ), and radiographical evaluations on X-ray were performed. Longitudinal qualitative assessment of articular cartilage was also performed using 3.0-T MRI with T2 mapping technique preoperatively, 6 months, and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS There was no case with progression of osteoarthritis. The mean JOA score improved from 70.1 to 93.4 points, the mean postoperative JHEQ score was 68.8 points, and radiographical data also improved postoperatively. We found that the T2 values of the cartilage at both femoral head and acetabulum increased at 6 months on coronal and sagittal views. However, they significantly decreased 1 and 2 years postoperatively. The T2 values of the center to anterolateral region of acetabulum negatively correlated with postoperative JHEQ score, particularly in pain score. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that biomechanical and anatomical changes could apparently cause decreased T2 values 1-2 years postoperatively compared with those preoperatively. Furthermore, preoperative T2 values of the acetabulum can be prognostic factors for the clinical results of RAO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Femoral cam deformity is frequently present in patients with acetabular dysplasia. Computational modeling can be used to identify how this deformity affects joint mechanics. Our purpose was to identify the relationship between cam deformity and joint contact stress after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). We hypothesized that cam deformity is associated with an increase in peak joint contact stress after PAO. METHODS This was a retrospective review of patients treated for hip dysplasia with PAO without femoral osteochondroplasty. Patient-specific hip models created from preoperative and postoperative computed tomography (CT) scans were evaluated using discrete element analysis to determine maximum joint contact stress after PAO. Twenty hips with a postoperative increase in maximum contact stress were compared with 20 that demonstrated decreased maximum contact stress. Hips were assessed for cam deformity on cross-sectional imaging. Radiographic measures of acetabular dysplasia before and after PAO were assessed and compared with the change in maximum contact stress after PAO. RESULTS There was a moderate relationship between the change in maximum contact stress and the α angle (r = 0.31; p = 0.04), and the average α angle in the hips with increased maximum contact stress was significantly different from that in the hips with decreased joint contact stress (51° ± 11.4° versus 42° ± 5.1°; p = 0.04). All 6 hips with an α angle of >60° demonstrated increased joint contact stress. CONCLUSIONS Cam deformity is common in patients with hip dysplasia. In our study, α angles of >60° were associated with increased postoperative joint contact stress. The α angle should be assessed preoperatively, and deformity should be addressed for optimal joint mechanics after PAO. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A reduction in joint contact stress is a proposed mechanism for the increased joint longevity following periacetabular osteotomy for hip dysplasia. Impingement from abnormal femoral offset negatively impacts clinical outcome, but this finding has not been evaluated from a biomechanical perspective previously and a threshold for performing femoral osteochondroplasty has not been established previously. This study provides biomechanical evidence supporting surgical management of femoral cam deformity for an α angle of >60°.

Biomechanical Guidance System for Periacetabular Osteotomy. ADVANCES IN EXPERIMENTAL MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY 2018.

Abstract
This chapter presents a biomechanical guidance navigation system for performing periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) to treat developmental dysplasia of the hip. The main motivation of the biomechanical guidance system (BGS) is to plan and track the osteotomized fragment in real time during PAO while simplifying this challenging procedure. The BGS computes the three-dimensional position of the osteotomized fragment in terms of conventional anatomical angles and simulates biomechanical states of the joint. This chapter describes the BGS structure and its application using two different navigation approaches including optical tracking of the fragment and x-ray-based navigation. Both cadaver studies and preliminary clinical studies showed that the biomechanical planning is consistent with traditional PAO planning techniques and that the additional information provided by accurate 3D positioning of the fragment does not adversely impact the surgery.

Abstract
Hip pain is highly prevalent in both the younger and the elderly population. In older patients, pain arising from osteoarthritis (OA) is most frequent, whereas in younger patients, non-degenerative diseases are more often the cause of pain. The pain may be caused by hip dysplasia and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).Abnormal mechanics of the hip are hypothesized by some authors to cause up to 80% of OA in the hip. Therefore, correction of these abnormalities is of obvious importance when treating young patients with hip pain.Hip dysplasia can be diagnosed by measuring a CE angle < 25° on a plain standing radiograph of the pelvis.Dysplastic or retroverted acetabulum with significant symptoms should receive a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO).FAI with significant symptoms should be treated by adequate resection and, if necessary, labrum surgery.If risk factors for poor outcome of joint-preserving surgery are present (age > 45 to 50 years, presence of OA, joint space < 3 mm or reduced range of motion), the patient should be offered a total hip arthroplasty (THA) instead of PAO.THA can be performed following PAO with outcomes similar to a primary THA.Hip arthroscopy is indicated in FAI (cam and pincer) and/or for labral tears.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is the treatment of choice for younger patients with developmental hip dysplasia. The procedure aims to normalize the joint configuration, reduce the peak-pressure, and delay the development of osteoarthritis. The procedure is technically demanding and no previous study has validated the use of computer navigation with a minimally invasive transsartorial approach. METHODS Computer-assisted PAO was performed on ten patients. Patients underwent pre- and postoperative computed tomography (CT) scanning with a standardized protocol. Preoperative preparation consisted of outlining the lunate surface and segmenting the pelvis and femur from CT data. The Biomechanical Guidance System was used intra-operatively to automatically calculate diagnostic angles and peak-pressure measurements. Manual diagnostic angle measurements were performed based on pre- and postoperative CT. Differences in angle measurements were investigated with summary statistics, intraclass correlation coefficient, and Bland-Altman plots. The percentage postoperative change in peak-pressure was calculated. RESULTS Intra-operative reported angle measurements show a good agreement with manual angle measurements with intraclass correlation coefficient between 0.94 and 0.98. Computer navigation reported angle measurements were significantly higher for the posterior sector angle ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) and the acetabular anteversion angle ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]). No significant difference was found for the center-edge ([Formula: see text]), acetabular index ([Formula: see text]), and anterior sector angle ([Formula: see text]). Peak-pressure after PAO decreased by a mean of 13% and was significantly different ([Formula: see text]). CONCLUSIONS We found that computer navigation can reliably be used with a minimally invasive transsartorial approach PAO. Angle measurements generally agree with manual measurements and peak-pressure was shown to decrease postoperatively. With further development, the system will become a valuable tool in the operating room for both experienced and less experienced surgeons performing PAO. Further studies with a larger cohort and follow-up will allow us to investigate the association with peak-pressure and postoperative outcome and pave the way to clinical introduction.

Abstract
Acetabular bone cyst is usually associated with dysplastic secondary osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Acetabular reorientation osteotomy is one of the most common therapeutic options for treating patients with hip dysplasia. However, it may be too invasive for athletes and can also lead to some complications including intraoperative fracture and postoperative bone necrosis especially in patients with acetabular large bone cysts. Endoscopic shelf acetabuloplasty offers a less invasive option for athletic patients with dysplasia of severity greater than those indicated for isolated hip arthroscopy. This Technical Note demonstrates endoscopic shelf acetabuloplasty with bone grafting, simultaneously addressing a large bone cyst and acetabular undercoverage, as part of a comprehensive approach addressing chondrolabral pathology while restoring capsular integrity in an athlete with moderate dysplasia.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of study is to evaluate the accuracy of a navigation system during curved peri-acetabular osteotomy (CPO). METHODS Forty-seven patients (53 hips) with hip dysplasia were enrolled and underwent CPO with or without navigation during surgery. Clinical and radiographical evaluations were performed and compared between the navigation group and non-navigation group, post-operatively. RESULTS The clinical outcomes were not significantly different between the navigation and non-navigation groups. Furthermore, post-operative reorientation of the acetabular fragment was similar between the navigation and non-navigation groups. However, the discrepancy between the pre-operative planning line and post-operative osteotomy line was significantly improved in the navigation group compared with that in the non-navigation group (p < 0.05). Further, the complication rate was significantly improved in the navigation group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The accuracy of the osteotomy's position was significantly improved by using the navigation. Therefore, the use of navigation during peri-acetabular osteotomy can avoid complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Rotational acetabular osteotomy is a type of pelvic osteotomy that involves rotation of the acetabular bone to improve the bony coverage of the femoral head for patients with acetabular dysplasia. Favourable post-operative long-term outcomes have been reported in previous studies. However, there is a paucity of published data regarding three-dimensional bony coverage. The present study investigated the three-dimensional bony coverage of the acetabulum covering the femoral head in hips before and after rotational acetabular osteotomy and in normal hips. METHODS The computed tomography data of 40 hip joints (12 joints before and after rotational acetabular osteotomy; 16 normal joints) were analyzed. The three-dimensional bony coverage of each joint was evaluated using original software. RESULTS The post-operative bony coverage improved significantly compared with pre-operative values. In particular, the anterolateral aspect of the acetabulum tended to be dysplastic in patients with acetabular dysplasia compared to those with normal hip joints. However, greater bony coverage at the anterolateral aspect was obtained after rotational acetabular osteotomy. Meanwhile, the results of the present study may indicate that the bony coverage in the anterior aspect may be excessive. CONCLUSION Three-dimensional analysis indicated that rotational acetabular osteotomy achieved favorable bony coverage. Further investigations are necessary to determine the ideal bony coverage after rotational acetabular osteotomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Bernese periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is an alternative to arthroplasty for treating symptomatic acetabular dysplasia, but there have been few studies on the intermediate-term outcomes of this procedure. In the present study, we assessed intermediate-term hip survival and patient-reported outcomes of PAO used to treat symptomatic acetabular dysplasia. METHODS From July 1994 to August 2008, 238 hips (206 patients) were treated with PAO. Sixty-two had a diagnosis other than classic acetabular dysplasia, and 22 were lost to follow-up. The remaining 154 hips (129 patients) were evaluated at an average of 10.3 years postoperatively. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to assess survivorship with an end point of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Hips were evaluated using the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) Activity Score, modified Harris hip score (mHHS), and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscale score. A WOMAC pain subscale score of ≥10 and/or an mHHS of ≤70 were considered to indicate a clinically symptomatic hip. RESULTS Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a hip survival rate of 92% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 82% to 97%) at 15 years postoperatively. Eight hips (5%) underwent THA at a mean (and standard deviation) of 6.8 ± 5.2 years. Twenty-four additional hips (16%) were considered symptomatic based on a WOMAC pain score of ≥10 and/or an mHHS of ≤70. One hundred and twenty-two hips (79%) did not undergo THA and did not meet the criteria for symptoms, and these hips had a mean mHHS of 92.4 ± 8.4, WOMAC pain subscale score of 1.2 ± 1.9, and UCLA Activity Score of 7.7 ± 2.0 at a mean of 10.1 years. A higher risk of failure was associated with fair or poor preoperative joint congruency (odds ratio [OR]: 8.65; 95% CI: 1.18 to 63.55; p = 0.034) and with a postoperative lateral center-edge angle of >38° (OR: 8.04; 95% CI: 2.01 to 32.22). A concurrent head-neck osteochondroplasty was associated with a decreased risk of failure (OR: 0.27; 95% CI: 0.09 to 0.78; p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the durability of the Bernese PAO. Fair or poor preoperative joint congruency and excessive postoperative femoral head coverage were found to be predictors of failure, while concurrent head-neck osteochondroplasty in patients with an inadequate range of motion after PAO was associated with a decreased risk of failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate three-dimensional morphology of acetabular lunate surface in patients with dysplastic hip using three-dimensional computed tomography (CT), and to compare the lunate surface morphology between the normal and dysplastic hips. METHODS Sixty seven dysplastic hips in symptomatic patients and 61 normal hips in healthy volunteers who underwent three-dimensional CT scanning were included in this study. The size and shape of the lunate surface was measured with a fully automated imaging technique using Mimics16.0 software; lunate surface morphology was compared between the normal and dysplastic hips on the radial spherical coordinate system. RESULTS A general trend of inferomedial rotation of the lunate surface was observed in dysplastic hips. Dysplastic hips showed a remarkable decrease in total absolute and relative size of the lunate surface as compared to that in normal hips. The dysplastic hips were divided into four groups: superior area decrease group (SD); anterosuperior area decrease group (ASD); global area decrease group (GD); global area increase group (GI). The arc of the global increase (GI) subgroup (26.86%) was increased, while that of the remaining three subgroups was decreased as compared to that in the normal acetabulum group. CONCLUSION Three-dimensional information and fundamental morphological features of the lunate surface in dysplastic hips were significantly different from those in the normal group. These findings may aid precise computational biomechanical analysis, preoperative planning for periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), achievement of satisfactory cartilaginous congruency, and judgment of postoperative prognosis in addition to postoperative treatment evaluation.

Abstract
Redirective, periacetabular osteotomies (PAO) represent a group of surgical procedures for treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in skeletally mature and immature patients. The ultimate goal of all procedures is to reduce symptoms, improve function and delay or prevent progression of osteoarthritis. During the last two decades, the understanding of the underlying pathomechanisms has continuously evolved. This is mainly attributable to the development of the femoroacetabular impingement concept that has increased the awareness of the underlying three-dimensional complexity associated with DDH. With increasing knowledge about the pathobiomechanics of dysplastic hips, diagnostic tools have improved allowing for sophisticated preoperative analyses of the morphological and pathobiomechanical features, and early recognition of degenerative changes, which may alter the long-term outcome. As redirective, PAO are technically demanding procedures, preoperative planning is crucial to avoid intraoperative obstacles and to sufficiently address the patient-specific deformity. Although conventional radiography has been used for decades, it has not lost its primary role in the diagnostic work-up of patients with DDH. Furthermore, an increasing number of modern imaging techniques exists allowing for assessment of early cartilage degeneration (biochemical magnetic resonance imaging) as well as 3D planning and computer-based virtual treatment simulation of PAO. This article reviews the literature with regard to the current concepts of imaging of DDH, preoperative planning and treatment recommendations for redirective, PAO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a hybrid augmented marker-based navigation system for acetabular reorientation during peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO). METHODS The system consists of a tracking unit attached to the patient's pelvis, augmented marker attached to the acetabular fragment and a host computer to do all the computations and visualization. The augmented marker is comprised of an external planar Aruco marker facing toward the tracking unit and an internal inertial measurement unit (IMU) to measure its orientation. The orientation output from the IMU is sent to the host computer. The tracking unit streams a live video of the augmented marker to the host computer, where the planar marker is detected and its pose is estimated. A Kalman filter-based sensor fusion combines the output from marker tracking and the IMU. We validated the proposed system using a plastic bone study and a cadaver study. Every time, we compared the inclination and anteversion values measured by the proposed system to those from a previously developed optical tracking-based navigation system. RESULTS Mean absolute differences for inclination and anteversion were 1.34 ([Formula: see text]) and 1.21 ([Formula: see text])[Formula: see text], respectively, for the cadaver study. Mean absolute differences were 1.63 ([Formula: see text]) and 1.55 ([Formula: see text])[Formula: see text] for inclination and anteversion for the plastic bone study. In both validation studies, very strong correlations were observed. CONCLUSION We successfully demonstrated the feasibility of our system to measure the acetabular orientation during PAO.

Patient-specific chondrolabral contact mechanics in patients with acetabular dysplasia following treatment with peri-acetabular osteotomy. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2017; 25:676-684.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Using a validated, patient-specific finite element (FE) modeling protocol, we evaluated cartilage and labrum (i.e., chondrolabral) mechanics before and after peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO) to provide insight into the ability of this procedure to improve mechanics in dysplastic hips. DESIGN Five patients with acetabular dysplasia were recruited in this case-controlled, prospective study. Models, which included anatomy for bone, cartilage, and labrum, were generated from computed tomography (CT) arthrography scans acquired before and after PAO. Cartilage and labrum contact stress and contact area were quantified overall and regionally. Load supported by the labrum, expressed as a percentage of the total hip force, was analyzed. RESULTS Percent cartilage contact area increased post-operatively overall, medially, and superiorly. Peak acetabular contact stress decreased overall, laterally, anteriorly, and superiorly. Average contact stress decreased overall, laterally, anteriorly, and posteriorly. Only average contact stress on the superior labrum and peak labrum stress overall decreased. Load supported by the labrum did not change significantly. CONCLUSIONS PAO was efficacious at medializing cartilage contact and reducing cartilage contact stresses, and therefore may minimize deleterious loading to focal cartilage lesions, subchondral cysts, and cartilage delaminations often observed in the lateral acetabulum of dysplastic hips. However, the excessively prominent, hypertrophied labrum of dysplastic hips remains in contact with the femoral head, which continues to load the labrum following PAO. The clinical ramifications of continued labral loading following PAO are not known. However, it is plausible that failure to reduce the load experienced by the labrum could result in end-stage hip OA following PAO.

Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a common condition predisposing to osteoarthritis (OA). Especially since DDH is best identified and treated in infancy before bones ossify, there is surprisingly a near-complete absence of literature examining mechanical behavior of infant dysplastic hips. We sought to identify current practice in finite element modeling (FEM) of DDH, to inform future modeling of infant dysplastic hips. We performed multi-database systematic review using PRISMA criteria. Abstracts (n = 126) fulfilling inclusion criteria were screened for methodological quality, and results were analyzed and summarized for eligible articles (n = 12). The majority of the studies modeled human adult dysplastic hips. Two studies focused on etiology of DDH through simulating mechanobiological growth of prenatal hips; we found no FEM-based studies in infants or children. Finite element models used either patient-specific geometry or idealized average geometry. Diversities in choice of material properties, boundary conditions, and loading scenarios were found in the finite-element models. FEM of adult dysplastic hips demonstrated generally smaller cartilage contact area in dysplastic hips than in normal joints. Contact pressure (CP) may be higher or lower in dysplastic hips depending on joint geometry and mechanical contribution of labrum (Lb). FEM of mechanobiological growth of prenatal hip joints revealed evidence for effects of the joint mechanical environment on formation of coxa valga, asymmetrically shallow acetabulum and malformed femoral head associated with DDH. Future modeling informed by the results of this review may yield valuable insights into optimal treatment of DDH, and into how and why OA develops early in DDH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since its first description in 1984, periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) has become an accepted treatment for hip dysplasia. The 30-year survivorship with this procedure has not been reported. Because these patients are often very young at the time of surgery, long-term followup and identification of factors associated with poor outcome could help to improve patient selection. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Looking at the initial group of patients with hip dysplasia undergoing PAO at the originator's institution, we asked: (1) What is the cumulative 30-year survival rate free from conversion to THA, radiographic progression of osteoarthritis, and/or a Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15? (2) Did hip function improve and pain decrease? (3) Did radiographic osteoarthritis progress? (4) What are the factors associated with one or more of the three endpoints: THA, radiographic progression of osteoarthritis, and/or Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15? METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the first 63 patients (75 hips) who underwent PAO for hip dysplasia between 1984 and 1987. At that time, hip dysplasia was the only indication for PAO and no patients with acetabular retroversion, the second indication for a PAO performed today, were included. During that period, no other surgical treatment for hip dysplasia in patients with closed triradiate cartilage was performed. Advanced osteoarthritis (≥ Grade 2 according to Tönnis) was present preoperatively in 18 hips (24%) and 22 patients (23 hips [31%]) had previous femoral and/or acetabular surgery. Thirty-nine patients (42 hips [56%]) were converted to a THA and one patient (one hip [1%]) had hip fusion at latest followup. Two patients (three hips [4%]) died from a cause unrelated to surgery 6 and 16 years after surgery with an uneventful followup. From the remaining 21 patients (29 hips), the mean followup was 29 years (range, 27-32 years). Of those, five patients (six hips [8%]) did not return for the most recent followup and only a questionnaire was available. The cumulative survivorship of the hip according to Kaplan-Meier was calculated if any of the three endpoints, including conversion to THA, progression of osteoarthritis by at least one grade according to Tönnis, and/or a Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15, occurred. Hip pain and function were assessed with Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score, Harris hip score, limp, and anterior and posterior impingement tests. Progression of radiographic osteoarthritis was assessed with Tönnis grades. A Cox regression model was used to calculate factors associated with the previously defined endpoints. RESULTS The cumulative survivorship free from conversion to THA, radiographic progression of osteoarthritis, and/or Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15 was 29% (95% confidence interval, 17%-42%) at 30 years. No improvement was found for either the Merle d'Aubigné-Postel (15 ± 2 versus 16 ± 2, p = 0.144) or Harris hip score (83 ± 11 versus 85 ± 17, p = 0.602). The percentage of a positive anterior impingement test (39% versus 14%, p = 0.005) decreased at 30-year followup, whereas the percentage of a positive posterior impingement test (14% versus 3%, p = 0.592) did not decrease. The percentage of positive limp decreased from preoperatively 66% to 18% at 30-year followup (p < 0.001). Mean osteoarthritis grade (Tönnis) increased from preoperatively 0.8 ± 1 (0-3) to 2.1 ± 1 (0-3) at 30-year followup (p < 0.001). Ten factors associated with poor outcome defined as THA, radiographic progression of osteoarthritis, and/or Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15 were found: preoperative age > 40 years (hazard ratio [HR] 4.3 [3.7-4.9]), a preoperative Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score < 15 (HR 4.1 [3.5-4.6]), a preoperative Harris hip score < 70 (HR 5.8 [5.2-6.4]), preoperative limp (HR 1.7 [1.4-1.9]), presence of a preoperative positive anterior impingement test (HR 3.6 [3.1-4.2]), presence of a preoperative positive posterior impingement test (HR 2.5 [1.7-3.2]), a preoperative internal rotation of < 20° (HR 4.3 [3.7-4.9]), a preoperative Tönnis Grade > 1 (HR 5.7 [5.0-6.4]), a postoperative anterior coverage > 27% (HR 3.2 [2.5-3.9]), and a postoperative acetabular retroversion (HR 4.8 [3.4-6.3]). CONCLUSIONS Thirty years postoperatively, 29% of hips undergoing PAO for hip dysplasia can be preserved, but more than 70% will develop progressive osteoarthritis, pain, and/or undergo THA. Periacetabular osteotomy is an effective technique to treat symptomatic hip dysplasia in selected and young patients with closed triradiate cartilage. Hips with advanced joint degeneration (osteoarthritis Tönnis Grade ≥ 2) should not be treated with PAO. Postoperative anterior acetabular overcoverage or postoperative acetabular retroversion were associated with decreased joint survival. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage (dGEMRIC) allows an objective, noninvasive, and longitudinal quantification of biochemical cartilage properties. Although dGEMRIC has been used to monitor the course of cartilage degeneration after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for correction of hip dysplasia, such longitudinal data are currently lacking for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) How does the mean acetabular and femoral dGEMRIC index change after surgery for FAI at 1-year followup compared with a similar group of patients with FAI treated without surgery? (2) Does the regional distribution of the acetabular and femoral dGEMRIC index change for the two groups over time? (3) Is there a correlation between the baseline dGEMRIC index and the change of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at 1-year followup? (4) Among those treated surgically, can dGEMRIC indices distinguish between intact and degenerated cartilage? METHODS We performed a prospective, comparative, nonrandomized, longitudinal study. At the time of enrollment, the patients' decision whether to undergo surgery or choose nonoperative treatment was not made yet. Thirty-nine patients (40 hips) who underwent either joint-preserving surgery for FAI (20 hips) or nonoperative treatment (20 hips) were included. The two groups did not differ regarding Tönnis osteoarthritis score, preoperative PROMs, or baseline dGEMRIC indices. There were more women (60% versus 30%, p = 0.003) in the nonoperative group and patients were older (36 ± 8 years versus 30 ± 8 years, p = 0.026) and had lower alpha angles (65° ± 10° versus 73° ± 12°, p = 0.022) compared with the operative group. We used a 3.0-T scanner and a three-dimensional dual flip-angle gradient-echo technique for the dGEMRIC technique for the baseline and the 1-year followup measurements. dGEMRIC indices of femoral and acetabular cartilage were measured separately on the initial and followup radial dGEMRIC reformats in direct comparison with morphologic radial images. Regions of interest were placed manually peripherally and centrally within the cartilage based on anatomic landmarks at the clockface positions. The WOMAC, the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, and the modified Harris hip score were used as PROMs. Among those treated surgically, the intraoperative damage according to the Beck grading was recorded and compared with the baseline dGEMRIC indices. RESULTS Although both the operative and the nonoperative groups experienced decreased dGEMRIC indices, the declines were more pronounced in the operative group (-96 ± 112 ms versus -16 ± 101 ms on the acetabular side and -96 ± 123 ms versus -21 ± 83 ms on the femoral side in the operative and nonoperative groups, respectively; p < 0.001 for both). Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy and surgical hip dislocation experienced decreased dGEMRIC indices; the decline in femoral dGEMRIC indices was more pronounced in hips after surgical hip dislocation (-120 ± 137 ms versus -61 ± 89 ms, p = 0.002). In the operative group a decline in dGEMRIC indices was observed in 43 of 44 regions over time. In the nonoperative group a decline in dGEMRIC indices was observed in four of 44 regions over time. The strongest correlation among patients treated surgically was found between the change in WOMAC and baseline dGEMRIC indices for the entire joint (R = 0.788, p < 0.001). Among those treated nonoperatively, no correlation between baseline dGEMRIC indices and change in PROMs was found. In the posterosuperior quadrant, the dGEMRIC index was higher for patients with intact cartilage compared with hips with chondral lesions (592 ± 203 ms versus 444 ± 205 ms, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS We found a decline in acetabular, femoral, and regional dGEMRIC indices for the surgically treated group at 1-year followup despite an improvement in all PROMs. We observed a similar but less pronounced decrease in the dGEMRIC index in symptomatic patients without surgical treatment indicating continuous cartilage degeneration. Although treatment of FAI is intended to alter the forces acting across the hip by eliminating impingement, its effects on cartilage biology are not clear. dGEMRIC provides a noninvasive method of assessing these effects. Longer term studies will be needed to determine whether the matrix changes of the bradytrophic cartilage seen here are permanent or clinically important.

Is Increased Acetabular Cartilage or Fossa Size Associated With Pincer Femoroacetabular Impingement? Clin Orthop Relat Res 2017; 475:1013-1023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment for pincer femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) of the hip remains controversial, between trimming the prominent acetabular rim and reverse periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) that reorients the acetabulum. However, rim trimming may decrease articular surface size to a critical threshold where increased joint contact forces lead to joint degeneration. Therefore, knowledge of how much acetabular articular cartilage is available for resection is important when evaluating between the two surgical options. In addition, it remains unclear whether the acetabulum rim in pincer FAI is a prominent rim because of increased cartilage size or increased fossa size. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We used reformatted MR and CT data to establish linear length dimensions of the lunate cartilage and cotyloid fossa in normal, dysplastic, and deep acetabula. METHODS We reviewed the last 200 hips undergoing PAO, reverse PAO, and surgical dislocation for acetabular rim trimming at one institution. We compared MR images of symptomatic hips with acetabular dysplasia (20 hips), pincer FAI (29 hips), and CT scans of asymptomatic hips from patients who underwent CT scans for reasons other than hip pain (20 hips). These hips were chosen sequentially from the underlying pool of 200 potential subjects to identify the first 10 male and the first 10 female hips in each group that met inclusion criteria. As a result of low numbers, we included all hips that had undergone reverse PAO and met inclusion criteria. Cartilage width was measured medially from the cotyloid fossa to the lateral labrochondral junction. Cotyloid fossa linear height was measured from superior to inferior and cotyloid fossa width was measured from anterior to posterior. Superior lunate cartilage width (SLCW) and cotyloid fossa height (CFH) were measured on MR and CT oblique coronal reformats; anterior lunate cartilage width (ALCW), posterior lunate cartilage width (PLCW), and cotyloid fossa width (CFW) were measured on MR and CT oblique axial reformats. Cohorts were compared using multivariate analysis of variance with Bonferroni's adjustment for multiple comparisons. RESULTS Compared with control acetabula, dysplastic acetabula had smaller SLCW (2.08 ± 0.29 mm versus 2.63 ± 0.42 mm, mean difference = -0.55 mm; 95% confidence interval [CI] = -0.83 to -0.27; p < 0.01), ALCW (1.20 ± 0.34 mm versus 1.64 ± 0.21 mm, mean difference = -0.44 mm; 95% CI = -0.70 to -0.18; p = 0.00), CFH (2.84 ± 0.37 mm versus 3.42 ± 0.57 mm, mean difference = -0.59 mm; 95% CI = -0.96 to -0.21; p < 0.01), and CFW (1.98 ± 0.50 mm versus 2.77 ± 0.33 mm, mean difference = -0.80 mm; 95% CI = -1.16 to -0.42; p < 0.0001). Based on the results, we identified two subtypes of deep acetabula. Compared with controls, deep subtype 1 had normal CFH and CFW but increased ALCW (2.09 ± 0.42 mm versus 1.64 ± 0.21 mm; p < 0.001) and PLCW (2.32 ± 0.36 mm versus 2.00 ± 0.32 mm; p = 0.04). Compared with controls, deep subtype 2 had increased CFH (4.37 ± 0.51 mm versus 3.42 ± 0.57 mm; p < 0.01) and CFW (2.76 ± 0.54 mm versus 2.77 ± 0.33 mm; p = 1.0) but smaller SCLW (2.12 ± 0.40 mm versus 2.63 ± 0.42 mm; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Deep acetabula have two distinct morphologies: subtype 1 with increased anterior and posterior cartilage lengths and subtype 2 with a larger fossa in height and width and smaller superior cartilage length. CLINICAL RELEVANCE In patients with deep subtype 1 hips that have increased anterior and posterior cartilage widths, rim trimming to create an articular surface of normal size may be reasonable. However, for patients with deep subtype 2 hips that have large fossas but do not have increased cartilage widths, we propose that a reverse PAO that reorients yet preserves the size of the articular surface may be more promising. However, these theories will need to be validated in well-controlled clinical studies.

Do Radiographic Parameters of Dysplasia Improve to Normal Ranges After Bernese Periacetabular Osteotomy? Clin Orthop Relat Res 2017; 475:1120-1127.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The goal of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is to improve the insufficient coverage of the femoral head and achieve joint stability without creating secondary femoroacetabular impingement. However, the complex tridimensional morphology of the dysplastic acetabulum presents a challenge to restoration of normal radiographic parameters. Accurate acetabular correction is important to achieve long-term function and pain improvement. There are limited data about the proportion of patients who have normal radiographic parameters restored after PAO and the factors associated with under- and overcorrection. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What is the proportion of patients undergoing PAO in which the acetabular correction as assessed by the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), anterior center-edge angle (ACEA), acetabular inclination (AI), and extrusion index (EI) is within defined target ranges? (2) What patient and preoperative factors are associated with undercorrection of the acetabulum as defined by a LCEA < 22°, a factor that has been reported to be associated with PAO failure at 10-year followup? METHODS Between January 2007 and December 2011 we performed 132 PAOs in 116 patients for treatment of symptomatic acetabular dysplasia. One patient with Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, one with multiple osteochondromatosis, and two with concomitant femoral osteotomy were excluded. A total of 128 hips (112 patients) were included. The hip cohort was 76% (97 of 128) female and the mean age at surgery was 28.5 years (SD 8.7 years). Correction of LCEA between 25° and 40°, ACEA between 18° and 38°, Tönnis angle between 0° and 10°, and EI ≤ 20% were defined as adequate based on normative values. Values lower than the established parameters were considered undercorrection for the LCEA and ACEA and those higher than the established values were considered overcorrection. Because postoperative LCEA < 22o has been previously associated with PAO failure at a minimum of 10-year followup, in this study we sought to measure whether demographic factors including age, gender, body mass index, and severity of acetabular dysplasia assessed by preoperative LCEA, ACEA, AI, and EI were associated with undercorrection. Postoperative radiographs were obtained at minimum of 1 month after surgery (mean, 7 months; range, 1-44 months) and were measured by a professional research assistant and a hip reconstruction fellow not involved in the clinical care of the patients. No patient was lost to followup. RESULTS Of the 128 hips, the proportion of hips with radiographic parameters within the established range was 78% (100 hips) for the LCEA, 86% (110 hips) for the ACEA, 89% (114 hips) for the AI, and 80% (102 hips) for the EI. For hips with an inadequate correction, the LCEA was more often undercorrected than overcorrected (20% versus 2%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 11%-27%; p < 0.001), whereas the ACEA was more often overcorrected than undercorrected (11% versus 3%; 95% CI, 1%-15%; p = 0.03) After adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, and preoperative radiographic parameters including ACEA, AI, and EI, we found that the preoperative LCEA was the only independent factor associated with a postoperative LCEA < 22° (odds ratio, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.87-0.97; p = 0.003), indicating that hips with lower preoperative LCEA were more likely to have a LCEA < 22°. For each additional degree of preoperative LCEA, the odds of LCEA < 22° were reduced by 15%. CONCLUSIONS Acetabular correction after PAO performed by two experienced surgeons was adequate for individual radiographic parameters in most but not all hips. Hips with more severe dysplasia preoperatively are at higher risk for undercorrection as assessed by the LCEA. This intuitive information may help surgeons performing PAO in severely dysplastic hips plan for possible combined procedures including a femoral osteotomy if PAO alone does not allow for adequate correction of femoral head coverage and a congruous concentric hip. Further studies are planned to determine whether the long-term hip function and pain in patients whose hips were corrected within these established parameters will be improved in comparison to those that were under- or overcorrected.

Sex- and age-specific differences in femoral head coverage and acetabular morphology among healthy subjects-derivation of normal ranges and thresholds for abnormality. Skeletal Radiol 2017; 46:523-531. [PMID: 28150099 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-017-2583-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2016] [Revised: 01/02/2017] [Accepted: 01/18/2017] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to clarify sex- and age-specific differences in three-dimensional and anatomic characteristics of femoral head coverage and acetabular morphology in healthy subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 120 healthy subjects (57 male, 63 female), stratified into groups according to age and sex. We used computed tomography data to measure various anatomic alignment parameters describing femoral head coverage and acetabular morphology. RESULTS The lateral sector angle in the coronal plane, anterior sector angle in the sagittal plane, and posterior sector angles in the axial plane, which characterize femoral head coverage, did not differ significantly between males and females. However, the Sharp angle in the coronal plane and acetabular anteversion in both the sagittal and axial planes were significantly larger in females than in males. Overall, the age-specific trends were similar between male and female subjects. Specifically, for both males and females, the values for parameters of femoral head coverage were significantly lower in younger subjects (<50 years) than in older subjects (≥50 years); the only exception was the posterior sector angle among females; regarding acetabular morphology, younger subjects showed significantly higher values for the acetabular roof obliquity and Sharp angle, but no difference between younger and older subjects was noted regarding acetabular anteversion in the sagittal or axial plane. CONCLUSION Our data regarding sex- and age-specific differences and estimated normal ranges for parameters characterizing femoral head coverage and acetabular morphology among healthy subjects can be used to predict normal hip morphology.
