Does the procedure achieve the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in the Oxford-12 score in more than 80% of cases? Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2024:103995. [PMID: 39278402 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2024.103995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several surgical options can be offered to manage iliopsoas impingement. Research published on cup replacements often concerns a small population size or multicentre studies, suggesting a variety of indications. We conducted a retrospective single centre study screening according to a specific protocol of a population of patients who had a cup replacement for iliopsoas impingement. The objectives were: 1) to specify the functional outcomes and the achievement of the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) and the Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) according to the Oxford-12 score, and 2) to assess the complication rate. HYPOTHESIS Our hypothesis was that acetabular replacements achieve a Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in more than 80% of cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-five hips underwent acetabular revision between 2011 and 2020. Forty-three were performed as first-line surgery, eight after failed tenotomy and four after failed anterior hip capsule thickening plasty. A CT scan of all the hips revealed a median overhang of 9 mm (7; 12) and a 7 ° cup anteversion (2; 19). Follow-up included assessment of the Oxford-12 score using MCID and PASS, the Merle d'Aubigné score, an assessment of hip flexion muscle strength using the Medical Research Council scale, and an assessment of satisfaction and complications. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 3 years (2-10), the difference in the Oxford score before and at follow-up was 18 points (15; 27) (p < 0.001), the median Medical Research Council score was 4.5 (4; 5) and patients were satisfied or very satisfied in 73% of cases (40/55). The MCID was achieved for 87% of the hips (48/55), and the PASS was achieved in 67% of cases (33/55). The rate of complications involving surgical revision was 10.9% (6/55) with respectively: two anterior dislocations, one early infection on day 10 resolved after wound irrigation and appropriate antibiotic therapy, one intraoperative fracture of the trochanter requiring osteosynthesis and one arthroscopic revision to remove a free cement fragment. CONCLUSION Due to a good functional outcome but a high complication rate, a cup replacement can be offered for iliopsoas impingement associated with acetabular malposition or significant overhang.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome during follow-up (FU) after endoscopic tenotomy for iliopsoas (IP)-cup impingement and to quantitatively analyze the hip flexion strength. METHODS This was a monocentric, retrospective cohort study of a single surgeon series. Functional assessment was based on the modified Harris score, the Oxford score and the visual analog scale score. Strength was measured with a handheld dynamometer in the sitting and lying position. RESULTS Thirty-six IP tenotomies for cup impingement were performed between May 2013 and November 2021. Seven (19%) patients were lost to FU. At the time of tenotomy, the mean (standard deviation) age was 62,6 (12,2) and BMI was 26,5 (4,1). The mean FU time after tenotomy to the last FU was 3,6 (0,8) years. All three outcome scores improved from preoperatively to six months postoperatively (p < 0.001). There were no significant change from six months to last FU. The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of the modified Harris score was set at 25. 20 (69%) patients had values that exceeded the threshold at one month and six months and neutral 19 (65.5%) had values that exceeded the threshold at the last FU. The limp symmetry index concerning hip flexion strength was 63% at 90° and 40% at 30° at the last FU. CONCLUSION Most patients significantly improved their outcome scores after endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy, with results remaining consistently stable over time. Despite a significant loss in hip flexion strength, the majority of patients did not report any impairment of their quality of life. STUDY DESIGN Level III, Retrospective cohort study.

Evaluation of 14 procedures at 4years' follow-up. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2024; 110:103741. [PMID: 37923175 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2023.103741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 06/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In 2015, we described a capsule-thickening technique via an anterior approach for iliopsoas cup impingement. To our knowledge, medium-term results have not been reported. We therefore retrospectively analyzed all cases in the initial series and those since 2015, to assess this original technique over a longer follow-up: (1) to analyze complications, and (2) to assess functional outcome. HYPOTHESIS The study hypothesis was that this surgical solution has a success rate sufficient for it to be included in the therapeutic armamentarium for iliopsoas impingement. MATERIAL AND METHOD Fourteen patients were included. Nine plasties were in first line, 3 after tenotomy, and 2 after cup exchange. The anterior Hueter approach was used, visualizing anterior cup overhang, sometimes associated with penetration of the anterior capsule, and enabling capsule-thickening by a folded Vicryl™ mesh. Functional results were analyzed. RESULTS At a median 4years' follow-up (IQR: 2-5; range: 1-9), change over baseline in Oxford score was 7 points (p=0.004), median Medical Research Council thigh flexion strength score was 5 (IQR: 5-5), and 50% of patients (7/14) were satisfied or very satisfied. The major complications rate was 7% (1/14), for 1 irrigation of infected hematoma, cured without recurrence; there was also 1 minor case of injury to the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh. Forty-three percent of patients (6/14) exhibited a minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and 64% (9/14) a patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS). Median anatomic overhang on anatomic CT transverse slice was 7mm (IQR: 3-8; range: 0-13). Four patients underwent secondary acetabular component exchange; their median overhang was 7.5mm (IQR: 7-8) compared to 5mm (IQR: 2-8) for the other patients (p-value non-calculable). CONCLUSION This surgical option seems interesting when acetabular overhang is not too great, especially as it does not affect flexion strength. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Arthroscopic and endoscopic techniques for iliopsoas release in THA are safe and effective: a systematic review of the literature. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2024; 34:2845-2857. [PMID: 38977435 PMCID: PMC11377508 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-024-04042-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip replacement surgery is highly effective in relieving pain and improving mobility in patients with various hip conditions. However, some patients develop groin pain after surgery, often due to iliopsoas impingement (IPI), which can be challenging to diagnose. Conservative treatments are initially recommended, but when these are not effective, surgical options may be considered. This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes, success and failure rates, revision rates, and complications associated with arthroscopic and endoscopic surgery for IPI, thereby providing a comprehensive understanding of the effectiveness and risks of these surgical interventions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review was conducted following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, including a thorough search of five main databases: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane. Eligible articles were meticulously evaluated according to predefined criteria for levels of evidence (LoE), with retrospective studies assessed using the Coleman Methodology Score (mCMS). This systematic review was registered in the International Prospective Registry of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). RESULTS Among the 16 included studies, 431 patients with 434 hips underwent either endoscopic or arthroscopic tenotomy. Both techniques showed favorable outcomes, with arthroscopic tenotomy demonstrating slightly higher success rates than endoscopic tenotomy. Common complications included mild pain and occasional infections, with recurrence observed in some cases. Both techniques offer direct visualization of prosthetic components and potential preservation of psoas function. CONCLUSIONS Arthroscopic and endoscopic iliopsoas tenotomy are effective treatments for alleviating symptoms and improving hip function in patients with IPI post-total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty can result not only from acetabular cup but also from cup fixation screw. However, research addressing this screw impingement is scarce, leaving the details undetermined. This study aimed to elucidate the incidence and threshold of symptomatic iliopsoas impingement attributable to protrusion of the cup fixation screw into the iliopsoas muscle and to evaluate its impact on postoperative radiographic imaging findings and patient-reported outcome measures. METHODS A total of 152 hips were included in this study. The symptomatic threshold of screw protrusion was determined using a receiver operating characteristic curve, and patients were divided into low-protrusion and high-protrusion groups using this threshold. The area and Hounsfield Unit values of the iliopsoas muscle on CT and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire postoperatively were investigated. FINDINGS 10 hips (6.5%) were exhibited symptoms of IPI in this series. The threshold for screw protrusion length was identified as 6.4 mm. Patients in the high protrusion group exhibited significantly larger area and lower Hounsfield Unit values of the iliopsoas muscle. In addition, the high protrusion group revealed significantly lower scores (total, pain, movement, mental). Furthermore, subscales scores (pain, movement) in the high protrusion group didn't improve from 3 months to 12 months postoperatively with significance. INTERPRETATION This study underscores the imperative for surgeons to consider the length of the cup fixation screw. This careful consideration is crucial for mitigating the incidence of postoperative iliopsoas impingement and enhancing total hip arthroplasty outcomes.

Quantifying cup overhang after total hip arthroplasty: standardized measurement using reformatted computed tomography and association of overhang distance with iliopsoas impingement. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:4300-4308. [PMID: 38147169 PMCID: PMC11213778 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10479-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Currently, there is no standardized measurement method for evaluating cup overhang (CO) in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). We propose a novel, standardized method of measuring overhang distance in patients following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) on computed tomography (CT) images after multiplanar reformation and compare it to a previously proposed measurement method on sagittal CT images. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included patients who underwent primary THA with an anterior approach. Patients with cup overhang (CO) and iliopsoas impingement (IPI) were identified by clinical and imaging data. Uncorrected overhang distance (ODu) was evaluated on orthogonal sagittal CT images while corrected overhang distance (ODc) was evaluated on reformatted sagittal CT images corrected for pelvic rotation and aligned with the plane of the cup face. RESULTS Out of 220 patients with THA, 23 patients (10.4%) with CO and 16 patients (7.3%) with IPI were identified. CO was significantly associated to IPI (p < 0.001). The inter- and intrareader agreement was almost perfect for ODc (κ = 0.822, κ = 0.850), whereas it was fair and moderate for ODu (κ = 0.391, κ = 0.455), respectively. The discriminative ability of ODc was excellent (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.909 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.784-1.000)) in the receiver operating characteristic analysis. Conversely, AUC for ODu was poor, measuring 0.677 (95% CI 0.433-0.921). CONCLUSION We implemented a novel measurement method for CT images reformatted at the plane of the cup face to assess overhang distance in patients with CO following THA. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT While further validation is necessary, the proposed method is characterized by its high reproducibility and might be used to predict the occurrence of iliopsoas impingement in patients with cup overhang following total hip arthroplasty. KEY POINTS • A novel, standardized method of measuring cup overhang distance in patients following primary total hip arthroplasty on CT images is proposed. • Cup overhang was associated to iliopsoas impingement. The proposed method was reproducible and showed excellent prediction of iliopsoas impingement in patients with cup overhang. • This method can be implemented in clinical practice when assessing CT images of patients with cup overhang for iliopsoas impingement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We evaluated the relationship between femoral anteversion (FA), FA change, and ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) and the relationship between FA, femoral offset (FO), and greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, two readers assessed FA and FO on CT images of 197 patients following primary THA with an anterior surgical approach between 2014 and 2021. FA change was calculated relative to preoperative CT, while FO change was calculated relative to preoperative radiographs and classified as decreased (≥-5 mm), increased (≥ + 5 mm), or restored (± 5 mm). Clinical and imaging data were analyzed for IFI and GTPS after surgery. Group differences were evaluated using Student's t-test, chi-square analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS The change in FA was 3.6 ± 3.3° to a postoperative FA of 22.5 ± 6.8°, while FO increased by 1.7 ± 3.5 mm to a postoperative FO of 42.9 ± 7.1 mm. FA and FA change were higher in patients with IFI (p ≤ 0.006), while no significant difference was observed for patients with and without GTPS (p ≥ 0.122). IFI was more common in females (p = 0.023). In the ROC analysis, an AUC of 0.859 was observed for FA change to predict IFI, whereas the AUC value was 0.726 for FA alone. No significant difference was found for FO change in patients with and without IFI or GTPS (p ≥ 0.187). CONCLUSION Postoperative FA, FA change, and female sex were associated with IFI after anterior-approached THA. The change in FA was a better predictor of IFI than absolute postoperative FA alone. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT The findings of this study suggest that preservation of the preoperative femoral anteversion may reduce postoperative ischiofemoral impingement in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. KEY POINTS • Higher postoperative femoral anteversion and anteversion change were associated with ischiofemoral impingement. • Femoral anteversion change was a better predictor of impingement than absolute postoperative anteversion. • No significant association was found between femoral offset and postoperative hip pain.

Arthroscopic Fractional Lengthening After Total Hip Arthroplasty Results in Improved Patient-Reported Outcomes and Low Rates of Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2024; 6:100930. [PMID: 39006778 PMCID: PMC11240011 DOI: 10.1016/j.asmr.2024.100930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To report the clinical outcomes and reoperation rates of arthroscopic and endoscopic iliopsoas release at short-term follow-up after ipsilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) at 2 separate medical institutions and to evaluate whether demographic and radiographic parameters are associated with postoperative patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Methods Patients with iliopsoas tendinitis in the setting of prior THA who underwent arthroscopic iliopsoas fractional lengthening from 1988 to 2023 at 2 academic institutions were reviewed. Patients were included if they had 12 months of follow-up and underwent evaluation of preoperative anterior acetabular component overhang, surgery satisfaction, postoperative subjective hip flexion strength and anterior groin pain improvement, modified Harris Hip Score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score, Tegner activity scale score, visual analog scale (VAS) score, and revision hip arthroplasty. Results Sixty hips in 58 patients (19 male and 39 female patients) were followed up for a mean of 39.3 months (range, 12.0-105.9 months) postoperatively. Of the patients, 77% reported feeling "much better" or "slightly better," 75% reported improved anterior groin pain, and 60% reported improved subjective hip flexion strength. The surgery satisfaction rating was 7.2 ± 3.3 (scale of 0 to 10). The mean postoperative modified Harris Hip Score, VAS score for pain at rest, VAS score for pain with use, and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score were 73.9 ± 19.4, 1.3 ± 2.4, 3.8 ± 2.9, and 71.9 ± 21.9, respectively. Preoperative anterior acetabular component overhang was 3.3 ± 6.5 mm and did not significantly correlate with postoperative PROs (P ≥ .45). The Tegner score improved from 2.5 ± 1.7 preoperatively to 2.9 ± 1.4 postoperatively (P = .0253). Three patients underwent revision arthroplasty at a mean of 25.3 months (range, 11.6-40.4 months) postoperatively, with an acetabular component revision rate of 3.3%. Conclusions Satisfactory outcomes and low revision arthroplasty rates were observed in patients undergoing arthroscopic iliopsoas lengthening after THA. There was no statistically significant relation between anterior acetabular component overhang and final PROs. Level of Evidence Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Abstract
In most cases, impingement of the iliopsoas tendon after total hip arthroplasty is caused by acetabular component retroversion. The present case report describes a patient with functional iliopsoas impingement following total hip arthroplasty. With increasing flexibility of the hip joint after surgery, the functional adjustment to the stiff thoracolumbar spine in this patient with diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis resulted in progressive pelvic roll back. This roll back resulted in a functional iliopsoas impingement as the psoas tendon travels over the front of the pecten ossis pubis. Since excessive roll back is usually also addressed in primary total hip arthroplasty by decreasing anteversion of the acetabular component, surgeons should be aware to avoid the combination of roll back and decreased anteversion and their potential impact on iliopsoas impingement.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persisting groin pain post total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common and complex issue that can be difficult to diagnose and manage. Acetabular component positioning is often implicated. AIMS AND METHODS We used a previously well described and validated functional positioning protocol to determine if functional acetabular malpositioning was a factor in groin pain post THA and hence to determine if acetabular revision would be indicated. We compared patient-specific functional acetabular positioning to traditional CT evaluation of cup position and assessment of anterior cup overhang. RESULTS 39 patients with groin pain post-THA were investigated. Functional acetabular malpositioning was diagnosed in 31% (12/39). Revision THA was performed in those 12 patients, resulting in resolution of functional malpositioning (100%), with an overall accuracy of 5.6° (range 1-12), and resolution of groin pain in 67% (8/12). 33% (4/12) of the revised implants had functional positioning located outside the traditional "40/20 zone". Comparison with CT indicated that 40% (4/10) of implants with anterior overhang were well positioned, however only 50% (6/12) of functionally malpositioned implants had CT evidence of anterior cup prominence. Of the 8/12 revision patients who had resolution of their groin pain, only 1 had cup prominence. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the utilisation of a patient specific functional positioning algorithm in the analysis of persistent groin pain following THA can assist in identifying the underlying cause of pain and help to guide treatment. For a functionally malpositioned acetabulum, revision surgery offers a potential resolution of groin pain.

Endoscopic Tendon Release for Iliopsoas Impingement After Total Hip Arthroplasty-Excellent Clinical Outcomes and Low Failure Rates at Short-Term Follow-Up. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:790-798.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical effectiveness of endoscopic iliopsoas tendon release (IPR) at the lesser trochanter (LT) in patients with iliopsoas impingement (IPI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS Between November 2017 and March 2021, a consecutive series of 36 patients were treated with endoscopic IPR for diagnosed IPI. Patients included had acetabular cup position confirmed by functional imaging (OPS, Corin, Pymble, NSW), typical clinical symptoms of IPI, and a positive response to diagnostic injection. Clinical assessment included validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) along with hip flexion strength and active range of motion at different time marks up to 2-year follow-up, as well as surgical complications. RESULTS Overall, 36 consecutive patients (11 males) with a mean age of 62 ± 12 years were included. All patients had failed nonoperative management. Dynamic computed tomography assessment was available in 89% of the patients, edge loading was reported in 10%, and variable cup overhang was reported in 50%. Clinically, PROMs were significantly improved at every time mark when compared with preoperative values (P < .001), showing the biggest improvement within the first 4 weeks after surgery. At the 6-month follow-up, peak isometric hip flexion strength on the operated side was 20% lower than the contralateral side (P < .001). Failure rate of the procedure was 2.8% (1 case). Linear regression showed no association between cup overhang and clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic IPR at the LT is a safe and reproducible technique associated with significant and immediate improvement in pain, functional outcomes, and high patient satisfaction. With minimal short-term weakness, no complications, and only a single revision, even in cases with cup malposition and/or edge loading, we believe that endoscopic IPR can be considered as one of the first-line operative options in patients with symptomatic IPI, irrespective of component position.

Abstract
Iliopsoas tendonitis, typically caused by impingement with the acetabular cup, occurs in up to 18% of patients after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and up to 30% of patients after hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA). We have developed a simulation for detecting iliopsoas impingement and validated it in a previous study of THA patients. However, due to the difference in incidence between HRA and THA, this study had two aims. First, to validate the simulation in a cohort of HRA patients and, second, to comparethe results of the HRA and THA patients to understand any differences in their etiology. We conducted a retrospective search in an experienced surgeon's database for HRA patients with iliopsoas tendonitisand control patients without iliopsoas tendonitis, resulting in two cohorts of 12 patients. Using CT scans, 3D models of the each patient's prosthetic and bony anatomy were generated, landmarked, and simulated. Regarding validation of the simulation for HRA patients, impingement significantly predicted the probability of iliopsoas tendonitis in logistic regression models and the simulation had a sensitivity of 83%, specificity of 100%, and an AUC ROC curve of 0.95. Unexpectedly, the HRA cohort exhibited less impingement than the THA cohort. Our novel simulation has now been demonstrated to detect iliopsoas impingement and differentiate between the symptomatic and asymptomatic cohorts in investigations of THA and HRA patients. This tool has the potential to be used preoperatively, to guide decisions about optimal cup placement, and postoperatively, to assist in the diagnosis of iliopsoas tendonitis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The occurrence of iliopsoas impingement (IPI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a proven risk factor for negative outcomes. Endoscopic or arthroscopic tenotomies of the iliopsoas offer a surgical solution with short-term results that have already been validated in prospective multicenter series. We carried out a review of the patients at more than 5 years of follow-up in order to assess the stability of the results over time. HYPOTHESIS Our main hypothesis was that endoscopic/arthroscopic tenotomies allow stable medium-term resolution of the painful symptoms of IPI. Our secondary hypothesis was that medium-term survival was satisfactory. MATERIAL AND METHOD This study is a continuation of a multicenter prospective series. Patients were contacted through multiple channels in order to: obtain an Oxford score, assess for satisfaction, psoas irritation, and daily pain on a visual analogue scale (VAS). RESULTS Of 64 patients in the original study, 57 were contacted. The Oxford score at the last follow-up was 40.7±7.7 [12-48]. There was a significant difference between the Oxford scores preoperatively, at 8 months and at the last follow-up. The mean satisfaction out of 10 was 8.0±2.1 [1-10]. We found 84% satisfaction at 5 years against 83% at 8 months. The VAS was 2.1±2.3 [0-10]. A straight leg psoas sign was present in 19.6% (10/51) of patients at 5 years, compared to 15.6% (8/51) at 8 months. The sign disappeared in four cases, while it reappeared during the interval in six cases. Survival was 91.2% (95% CI: 80.2-96.3) at 5 years. CONCLUSION Endoscopic/arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomies represent a permanent medium-term solution to treat IPI after THA. The existence of a force differential or an acetabular overhang does not seem, within a certain limit, to impact the results in the medium term.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iliopsoas impingement (IPI) is an important complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and anterior cup protrusion is believed to be its main cause; however, the relationship between the hip center of rotation (COR) and symptomatic IPI or cup protrusion remains poorly understood. Therefore, the present study investigated these relationships. METHODS The medical records of 138 patients who underwent unilateral primary THA were retrospectively reviewed. There were 8 patients (5.8%) who had symptomatic IPI. The COR and cup protrusion length measured with 2 methods were assessed on computed tomography. Risk factors for symptomatic IPI and the relationship between the COR and protrusion length were evaluated. RESULTS Logistic regression analyses showed that anteroposterior position of the COR, sagittal cup protrusion length (SCPL) at the COR, and both axial and SCPLs at the most anterior margin of the cup were related to symptomatic IPI. Multivariable regression analyses showed that acetabular offset was related to axial protrusion length at the COR, and anteroposterior position of the COR was related to both axial and sagittal protrusion lengths at the most anterior margin of the cup. CONCLUSION Anterior position of the cup was related to symptomatic IPI and both axial and sagittal protrusion lengths at the most anterior margin of the cup. Anterior reaming and cup protrusion should be avoided as much as possible to prevent symptomatic IPI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iliopsoas impingement (IPI) is a known complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The aim of this study was to identify risk factors and the cut-off cup protrusion length for symptomatic IPI. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 218 hips (46 men, 172 women) of 190 consecutive Japanese patients who underwent primary THA at our institution. Hips with IPI (n = 24) and control hips (n = 194) were compared according to age, body mass index, and clinical scores. We evaluated leg-length discrepancy, global offset, implant alignment angles, pelvic inclination, and anterior cup protrusion on plain radiographs and computed tomography scans. RESULTS Symptomatic IPI had an incidence of 11.0% and a predilection for hips with osteonecrosis. Pre- and postoperative hip flexion angles were significantly greater in hips with symptomatic IPI (p = 0.013 and p = 0.006, respectively). Cup protrusion length was significantly greater in hips with IPI (4.7 mm vs. 1.4 mm; p = 0.001). Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis identified a threshold cup protrusion length of 3.9 mm (sensitivity 0.89, specificity 0.63) for symptomatic IPI. The incidence of symptomatic IPI tended to be lower in patients with greater posterior pelvic sagittal inclination despite the cup protrusion length being greater. CONCLUSIONS An increased hip flexion angle and protrusion of the anterior acetabular component predicted symptomatic IPI. The threshold cup protrusion length suggesting mild IPI might be about 3.9 mm and could be useful for identifying candidates for conservative treatment.

Abstract
Iliopsoas (IP) tendinitis from impingement upon the acetabular component after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been treated with open and endoscopic IP tenotomy or acetabular component revision. This study describes the results of a consecutive series of patients treated with endoscopic IP tenotomy as a less invasive alternative. Twenty-eight patients with IP impingement after THA underwent endoscopic IP lengthening from 2012 to 2021 at a single-center academic institution. The follow-up of 24 of these patients was achieved with a mean follow-up of 7.6 months (range 1-28). Outcomes included the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), visual analog pain scale (VAS), satisfaction, component positioning and complications. Seventy-one percent of patients were satisfied or very satisfied after their operation. The median mHHS preoperatively was 57 (Interquartile range [IQR] 43-60) and postoperatively was 75 (IQR 66-92, P < 0.001). Clinically meaningful improvements in mHHS were seen in patients with VAS pain scores <5, cup prominence >8 mm, body mass index >30, and less than 2 years from their index THA. Two patients developed a deep infection 7 and 10 months postoperatively (neither related to the release), and one patient underwent open psoas release for persistent impingement. Endoscopic IP tenotomy is a safe and effective treatment for impingement after THA. Patients with cup prominence >8 mm, body mass index >30 and less than 2 years since their index THA may have more clinically meaningful improvements in pain and function.

Abstract
Iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty is caused by the implant irritating the iliopsoas muscle, but changes in the iliopsoas muscle have not been quantitatively evaluated. This study assessed changes in the surface pressure of the iliopsoas muscle when the implant alignment was varied. Total hip arthroplasty was performed in 10 fresh-frozen cadaveric hips. We evaluated the maximum and mean surface pressure of the iliopsoas muscle with the hip in 20° and 10° extension, the neutral position, and 10° flexion when the anterior cup protrusion length (ACPL), stem version, and stem offset were varied. When the ACPL was changed to 0, 3, and 6 mm in 20° extension, the maximum surface pressure was significantly increased for ACPL of 6 mm compared with 0 mm. Decreased stem anteversion resulted in a significant reduction in both the maximum and mean surface pressure compared with native anteversion from 20° extension to the neutral position. Increased stem offset resulted in significant increases in the maximum and mean surface pressure of the iliopsoas muscle compared with decreased stem offset in 20° extension. Not only large ACPL but also changes in stem version and offset affected the maximum surface pressure of the iliopsoas muscle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Instability remains a challenging problem following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Dual-mobility (DM) components are used with increasing frequency to mitigate this potential complication. As has been shown with larger metal-on-metal (MoM) THA, the larger size femoral head may pose an increased risk of groin pain. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of groin pain following primary DM THA compared to other THA constructs. METHODS We identified 190 primary THAs (183 patients) performed with DM components at a single academic institution from 2008 to 2017. We retrospectively reviewed standardised patient questionnaires and the electronic medical record to determine the prevalence of groin pain. DM patients were compared to historical controls of 39 MoM hip resurfacing, 26 large-head MoM THA, and 217 conventional THA. Mean age was 64 years, 58% were female, mean body mass index was 30 kg/m2, and mean follow-up was 3.5 years (range 2-8 years). RESULTS The prevalence of groin pain in patients with DM components was 5%, similar to the prevalence reported by patients with conventional THA (7%). There was a decreased prevalence of groin pain in DM patients compared to hip resurfacing (18%) and MoM THA (15%). Among the 9 DM patients with groin pain, 1 was treated with iliopsoas injection, and 1 underwent radiofrequency ablation of the articular nerve. CONCLUSIONS This study documents a relatively low prevalence of groin pain among primary DM THA patients. This is comparable with historical controls of conventional THA and decreased compared to hip resurfacing and large head MoM THA.

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

Abstract
AIMS Iliopsoas impingement occurs in 4% to 30% of patients after undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Despite a relatively high incidence, there are few attempts at modelling impingement between the iliopsoas and acetabular component, and no attempts at modelling this in a representative cohort of subjects. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel computational model for quantifying the impingement between the iliopsoas and acetabular component and validate its utility in a case-controlled investigation. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent THA surgery that included 23 symptomatic patients diagnosed with iliopsoas tendonitis, and 23 patients not diagnosed with iliopsoas tendonitis. All patients received postoperative CT imaging, postoperative standing radiography, and had minimum six months' follow-up. 3D models of each patient's prosthetic and bony anatomy were generated, landmarked, and simulated in a novel iliopsoas impingement detection model in supine and standing pelvic positions. Logistic regression models were implemented to determine if the probability of pain could be significantly predicted. Receiver operating characteristic curves were generated to determine the model's sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS Highly significant differences between the symptomatic and asymptomatic cohorts were observed for iliopsoas impingement. Logistic regression models determined that the impingement values significantly predicted the probability of groin pain. The simulation had a sensitivity of 74%, specificity of 100%, and an AUC of 0.86. CONCLUSION We developed a computational model that can quantify iliopsoas impingement and verified its accuracy in a case-controlled investigation. This tool has the potential to be used preoperatively, to guide decisions about optimal cup placement, and postoperatively, to assist in the diagnosis of iliopsoas tendonitis.Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2023;4(1):3-12.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A cause of groin pain after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is mechanical irritation or impingement of the iliopsoas tendon. The incidence is about 4%. If conservative therapy fails, an arthroscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon can be performed. The aim of the study was to assess the mid-term clinical outcome after arthroscopic release. We hypothesize that good results can be achieved by a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure. METHODS Using our in-house database, all patients who received an endoscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon due to mechanical irritation after THA were identified. Inclusion criteria were mechanical irritation of the iliopsoas tendon after cementless THA with minimal acetabular component prominence. Exclusion criteria were marked prominence of the acetabular component and groin pain after THA for any other reason. In these patients, the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the pain level using the numerical analogue scale and the UCLA Activity Score were measured. The mean follow-up period was 7 ± 3.8 (2.6-11.7) years. RESULTS 25 patients were identified in whom an arthroscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon had been performed since 2007. The data of 20 patients were available at follow-up. The gender ratio was 1:1, the average age at the time of arthroscopy was 59 ± 27.7 (52-78) years. The average interval between THA and arthroscopy was 6.3 ± 4.0 (1.7-15) years. The mHHS showed a significant improvement from preoperative 31.2 ± 9.8 (17.6-47.3) to 82.0 ± 9.8 (46.2-100) points (p = 0.001). The pain level on the NAS decreased significantly from 8.5 ± 1.2 (7-10) to 2.5 ± 1.8 (0-6) points (p = 0.001). The activity level based on the UCLA Activity Score raised from 4.0 ± 2.7 (0-7) to 6.5 ± 1.8 (3-9) (p = 0.09). CONCLUSION Mechanical irritation and impingement of the iliopsoas tendon is an important diagnosis to be considered in persistent groin pain after total hip arthroplasty. In failure of non-operative treatment, good clinical results can be achieved with arthroscopic release and the pain level can be significantly reduced. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To perform a systematic review of the findings of iliopsoas release as it relates to resolution of snapping, improvement of groin pain, and associated complications. DESIGN Systematic review. DATA SOURCES Four electronic databases PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science were searched, identifying all literature pertaining to surgical treatment of a snapping hip/coxa saltans, iliopsoas impingement, or iliopsoas tendinitis. A total of 818 studies were identified. Two reviewers independently screened the titles, abstracts, and full-text articles for eligibility. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA All studies published in English that reported on iliopsoas release for snapping hip/coxa saltans, iliopsoas impingement, or iliopsoas tendinitis reporting outcomes or associated complications were eligible. RESULTS A total of 48 articles were included in this review. Three surgical indications were identified for iliopsoas release, internal snapping hip, labral tear secondary to iliopsoas impingement, and iliopsoas tendinopathy after total hip arthroplasty. Arthroscopic techniques seemed to be superior to open techniques with regards to reoccurrence of snapping (5.1% vs 21.7%) and groin pain relief (89.1% vs 85.6%) with fewer complications (4.2% vs 21.1%) overall. CONCLUSIONS Both open and arthroscopic iliopsoas releases have been shown to be successful treatment options regardless of the surgical indications identified in this review. Arthroscopic release demonstrated a decreased failure rate, fewer complications, and improved outcomes when compared with open procedures.

Abstract
PURPOSE 1 of the causes of groin pain after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is impingement of the iliopsoas tendon. The purpose of this study was to present our results with outside-in arthroscopic tenotomy for iliopsoas impingement after THA. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 12 patients treated between 2009 and 2016 with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Anterior acetabular component prominence was measured on a true lateral hip radiograph. A transcapsular tenotomy was performed near the edge of the acetabular component through an outside-in arthroscopic approach. The primary clinical outcomes evaluated were groin pain, assessed with a visual analogue scale (VAS), and the Harris Hip Score (HHS). Secondary outcomes included strength of hip flexion, measured with the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale. RESULTS All patients had groin pain improvement, though one patient continued to have moderate pain. The mean VAS score was significantly lower postoperatively (1.08) than preoperatively (6.2) (p < 0.001). The mean HHS improved from 58.8 (range, 37-76) to 86.1 (range, 59-98) (p = 0.001). The average postoperative MRC Scale was 4.58. The mean anterior prominence was 7.25 mm (range 3-12 mm). In patients with <10 mm of component prominence, tenotomy provided groin pain resolution in all cases (n = 8). In patients with ⩾10 mm of prominence, symptoms resolved in 3 out of 4 cases. CONCLUSIONS Outside-in arthroscopic iliopsoas release provided a high rate of success with no complications in this study, even in patients with moderate acetabular component prominence.

Endoscopic Tenotomy for Iliopsoas Tendinopathy Following Total Hip Arthroplasty Can Relieve Pain Regardless of Acetabular Cup Overhang or Anteversion. Arthroscopy 2021; 37:2820-2829.

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

Abstract
Background Relevant criteria for total hip arthroplasty (THA) planning have been introduced in the literature which include the hip range of motion, bony coverage, anterior cup overhang, leg length discrepancy, edge loading risk, and wear. The optimal implant design and alignment depends on the patient’s anatomy and patient-specific functional parameters such as the pelvic tilt. The approaches proposed in literature often consider one or more criteria for THA planning. but to the best of our knowledge none of them follow an integrated approach including all criteria for the definition of a patient-specific combined target zone (PSCTZ). Questions/purposes (1) How can we calculate suitable THA implant and implantation parameters for a specific patient considering all relevant criteria? (2) Are the resulting target zones in the range of conventional safe zones? (3) Do patients who fulfil these combined criteria have a better outcome score? Methods A method is presented that calculates individual target zones based on the morphology, range of motion and load acting on the hip joint and merges them into the PSCTZ. In a retrospective analysis of 198 THA patients, it was calculated whether the patients were inside or outside the Lewinnek safe zone, Dorr combined anteversion range and PSCTZ. The postoperative Harris Hip Scores (HHS) between insiders and outsiders were compared. Results 11 patients were inside the PSCTZ. Patients inside and outside the PSCTZ showed no significant difference in the HHS. However, a significant higher HHS was observed for the insiders of two of the three sub-target zones incorporated in the PSCTZ. By combining the sub-target zones in the PSCTZ, all PSCTZ insiders except one had an HHS higher than 90. Conclusions The results might suggest that, for a prosthesis implanted in the PSCTZ a low outcome score of the patient is less likely than using the conventional safe zones by Lewinnek and Dorr. For future studies, a larger cohort of patients inside the PSCTZ is needed which can only be achieved if the cases are planned prospectively with the method introduced in this paper. Clinical Relevance The method presented in this paper could help the surgeon combining multiple different criteria during THA planning and find the suitable implant design and alignment for a specific patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence, natural history, response to treatment, and risk factors for anterior iliopsoas impingement (AIPI) after direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS Between January 1, 2009 and January 4, 2014, 600 patients (655 hips) who underwent primary DAA THA were retrospectively reviewed. AIPI incidence was calculated. Natural history and response to a stepwise treatment approach was assessed. Radiographic anterior acetabular component overhang was measured. Asymptomatic controls were used to identify risk factors for the development of AIPI. RESULTS In total, 518 patients (559 hips) met the inclusion criteria. The incidence of AIPI was 32/559 (5.7%). Symptom resolution occurred in 22/32 (68.8%) patients at final follow-up. Nonoperative management was successful in 15/32 (46.9%) patients. Operative intervention resulted in symptom resolution in 5/8 (62.5%) patients. On univariate analysis, female gender (odds ratio [OR] 2.79), acetabular component to native femoral head diameter ratio above 1.1 (OR 3.85), and any measurable overhang (OR 7.07) significantly raised the risk of AIPI, while increasing native femoral head diameter was protective for AIPI (OR 0.83). CONCLUSION AIPI is a cause of groin pain after DAA THA, which often improves with conservative measures. Significant predisposing factors for AIPI include female gender, small native femoral head diameter, increased acetabular component to femoral head diameter ratio, and most notably, any measurable acetabular component overhang.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aim of this study was to describe the clinical outcomes of 16 patients with iliopsoas (IP) impingement after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), treated with an arthroscopic tendon release. METHODS 16 patients (11 females/5 males), with a mean age of 57.8 ± 11.1 years (age at THA: 54.4 ± 11 years) and a diagnosis of IP impingement after primary THA, were treated with the Wettstein tenotomy. Preoperatively, every patient underwent a diagnostic ultrasonography guided peritendinous injection and a computed tomography (CT) scan. Every patient was clinically evaluated using WOMAC score. Subjective pain relief and active hip flexion strength were measured. RESULTS No complications related to arthroscopy were detected. Every cup was prominent with a mean axial overhang of 13 ± 4.8 mm (range 5-20 mm). At a mean follow-up of 27 ± 20.1 months (range 6-48 months), the WOMAC score was 83.7 ± 10.1 points. 13 patients out of 16 (81.3%) had a complete pain relief. 14 patients out of 16 (88%) regained full active hip flexion strength at the final follow-up. 1 patient was scheduled for cup revision after 6 months, due to persistent symptomatology. No demographic data or CT measurements about cup position statistically influenced the outcome. CONCLUSIONS When preceded by an appropriate diagnosis, arthroscopic tenotomy proved safe and effective for IP impingement, regardless the magnitude of cup protrusion.

Abstract
Disorders involving artificial joints are difficult to evaluate due to metal artifacts hindering plain computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In the current case study 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET)/CT and MRI were used to confirm iliopsoas tendonitis within the metal artifact area following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The patient was a 61-year-old woman who developed hip pain on flexion of the ipsilateral hip after THA. Imaging studies were performed to evaluate for iliopsoas tendonitis due to impingement with the cup. Assessment of the iliopsoas muscle near the artificial joint was difficult due to the metal artifact on plain CT and MRI. Imaging using 18F-FDG-PET/CT and 18F-FDG-PET/MRI showed uptake along the iliopsoas muscle. Therefore, revision was performed to resolve iliopsoas tendon impingement, and the preoperative pain resolved. The result of the current case study suggest 18F-FDG-PET/CT or 18F-FDG-PET/MRI will be useful to detect iliopsoas tendonitis within metal artifact areas after THA.

Achievement of optimal implant alignment using taper wedge stems with cup-first THA through the MIS antero-lateral approach. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY AND TRAUMATOLOGY 2020; 30:1505-1514.

Abstract
PURPOSE Combined anteversion (CA) technique (stem-first procedure) has become generally accepted as an ideal means to achieve optimal CA value in THA. However, we hypothesized that CA technique for patients with various native femoral anteversions could pose a risk of anterior or posterior cup protrusion. In the present study, we examined whether it is possible to use the taper wedge stem to change the stem version to achieve optimal CA while avoiding cup protrusions with the cup-first procedure through minimally invasive (MIS) antero-lateral approach. METHODS Eighty-one patients underwent cup-first THA with a taper wedge stem. The acetabular cup was placed following the preoperative planning of the cup alignment to avoid anterior cup protrusions using CT-based navigation. Following the CA theory, anteversion of the taper wedge stem was changed to the target anteversion from the patient's native femoral anteversion. The native femoral anteversion, the change in version angle of the stem, postoperative CA and the length of anterior cup protrusions were evaluated in postoperative CT measurements. RESULTS The native femoral anteversion averaged 25.7° ± 8.9° (range 8°-45°). Cases with increased and decreased stem anteversion were observed in 42 hips (51.8%) and 33 hips (40.7%), respectively. The amount of increased and decreased version angles averaged 7.7° ± 4.8° (range 2°-21°) and 7.8° ± 5.1° (range 2°-20°), respectively. Postoperative CA values averaged 36.7° ± 3.4° (range 29.4°-44.2°) and anterior cup protrusion length averaged 2.0 mm ± 2.6 mm (0 ~ 8.8 mm) in axial view and 0.4 mm ± 1.0 mm (0 ~ 3.6 mm) in sagittal view. Anterior cup protrusion of more than 10 mm was not observed in any hips. CONCLUSION This procedure can be considered as an option to achieve optimal CA anteversion while avoiding anterior cup protrusion in THA.

Association between total hip arthroplasty following periacetabular osteotomy and acetabular component overhang. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY AND TRAUMATOLOGY 2020; 30:1431-1439.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited understanding of anterior acetabular component overhang, which induces groin pain, in post-periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) hips during conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). The aim of the study were to determine the following: (1) the differences in the amount of acetabular component overhang among pre-PAO hips and post-PAO hips in simulating THA; (2) the factors associated with the amount of component overhang in THA following PAO; (3) whether high component placement with elevation of the hip center by 10 mm reduces the amount of component overhang compared to the anatomical component position in THA following PAO. METHODS Computer-based simulations of acetabular component implantation were performed using preoperative and postoperative CT data from 30 patients undergoing PAO. Implantation was performed thrice in each patient: in pre-PAO hips (anatomical component position) and post-PAO hips (anatomical and high component position). Component overhang was measured on the axial plane, which passes through the component center. RESULTS Overhang was greater in post-PAO hips [mean (SD) overhang: 5.2 (2.9) mm, pre-PAO hips: 10.2 (4.6) mm, post-PAO hips-mean difference, 5.0 mm; p < 0.001]. A smaller distance between the pubic osteotomy and the acetabulum, and greater overhang in pre-PAO hips was independent factors associated with increased overhang in post-PAO hips. Overhang was smaller with the high component position than with the anatomical component position in post-PAO hips [mean (SD) overhang-3.5 mm (2.9) with high component position among post-PAO hips; mean difference, 6.6 mm; p < 0.001). Ten post-PAO hips with the anatomical component position had overhang of at least 12 mm (the likely threshold for groin pain). Of these, 9 hips had reduced overhang (< 12 mm) with the high component position. CONCLUSIONS Acetabular component overhang was more severe in THA following PAO than in THA without prior PAO. Pubic osteotomy should be performed closer to the acetabular rim to prevent severe overhang in potential THA conversion cases. A high component position decreased the risk of severe overhang.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In total hip arthroplasty with computer navigation assistance, cup orientation is generally determined according to the coordinate system relative to the functional pelvic plane (FPP). However, there is a large difference in the cup anteversion between a posterior pelvic tilt relative to the computed tomography (CT) table in the sagittal plane and anterior pelvic tilt, even when the cup is set at the same orientation angle according to each FPP. The present study analysed this difference from the viewpoint of 3-dimensional (3D) coverage of the acetabular component (3D coverage) to determine how the 3D acetabular coverage is altered with changes in pelvic sagittal tilt. METHODS We analysed 3D-simulated acetabular coverage measured in 3D pelvic models reconstructed from the preoperative CT data of 50 patients. In each patient, we created 5 pelvic models with a sagittal tilt of 10° increments between 20° anterior tilt and 20° posterior tilt relative to the CT table. RESULTS We found that 3D coverage decreased as the pelvis tilted posteriorly. Particularly, there were significant differences between the pelvis with 20° anterior tilt and that with neutral tilt (p < 0.001). There was also a difference between the pelvis with neutral tilt and that with a 20° posterior tilt (p < 0.01). The mean decrease in 3D coverage between the pelvis with neutral tilt and that with 20° posterior tilt was 7.2 ± 1.6%. CONCLUSIONS We found that 3D coverage differed among pelvis with different sagittal tilts when the cup orientation angle was determined according to FPP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior hip pain after total hip replacement (THR) can be caused by iliopsoas impingement (IPI). Validation of CT measured cup version is well published; however quantification of the anterior cup prominence has not been validated. Therefore, we did an in vitro study aiming to: (1) assess the accuracy of the current method of measuring the prominence of the acetabular component using a dry bone model; (2) develop a CT protocol based on bony anatomical landmarks that improves the accuracy of these measurements. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesise that utilising reproducible anatomical landmarks on the acetabulum will improve the accuracy of measurement of anterior prominence at the psoas valley. METHODS A dry bone pelvic model was implanted with bilateral acetabular cups. The cup was manipulated into ten different combinations of inclination and version, and anterior prominence directly measured in relation to the acetabular rim. A CT scan was performed for each position. Anterior prominence was then measured by two radiologists, first using standard methods (axial slice at level of centre of femoral head) and then again using a novel protocol (based on the position of the psoas valley in relation to the inferior medial acetabular notch). RESULTS Mean errors between direct measurement of anterior prominence and radiologist reported measurements using standard protocol were 6.94mm±5.24 (SD) (95%Confidence Interval: 3.25-4.27) and 5.14mm±3.07 (95%CI: 1.9-2.5) with a tendency towards overestimation of prominence. Using an anatomical landmark based protocol; mean error was reduced to 3.0mm±1.9 (95%CI: 1.16-1.53) and 4.3mm±4.3 (95%CI: 2.67-351) on the first attempt, and to 1.7mm±1.9 (95%CI: 1.15-1.52) and 2.1mm±1.4 (95%CI: 0.87-1.15) on the second attempt. Concordance correlation improved from 0.43 (95% CI: 0.19-0.68) and 0.59 (95% CI: 0.44-0.79) using the standard protocol, to 0.88 (95%CI: 0.61-0.91) and 0.9 (95%CI: 0.56-0.92) using the novel protocol. CONCLUSIONS There is a difference in mean error and reliability between radiologically measured values for anterior prominence and values measured directly with present methods. The use of our novel protocol based on bony acetabular landmarks, significantly improves the accuracy of measurement. This protocol may improve reproducibility and the accuracy of this measurement and aid in the decision between tenotomy or revision of the acetabular component.

Abstract
The diagnosis of iliopsoas synovial cyst is a rare finding. The normal approach to treat this condition has been conservative therapies or open surgery, with its associated complications and morbidity. The arthroscopic – endoscopic surgery is less invasive and with an increase in complications and days of hospitalization. We report the case of a 70-year old woman with clinical and imaging signs of a fluid-filled cyst near iliopsoas distal tendon. After fluid aspiration, the patient reported symptom-free interval of several weeks, but then groin pain and swelling feeling return, increased with hip movements. The cyst was removed through arthroscopy approach and the iliopsoas tendon was released. The removal of iliopsoas synovial cyst is necessary to avoid complications such as pain and functional limits. Arthroscopy has the advantage of less soft-tissue damage and quicker recovery. The treatment of associated tendon pathology can be done. Hip arthroscopy can be a safe and effective technique for the removal of iliopsoas synovial cyst. (www.actabiomedica.it)

Abstract
PURPOSE Combined anteversion (CA) technique (stem-first procedure) is generally accepted as the optimal technique to attain an appropriate CA value in total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, cup anteversion is strongly influenced by the native femoral anteversion. Accordingly, anterior protrusion of the cup in the acetabulum might occur. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the achievement of the optimal CA while avoiding anterior cup protrusion and examine the significance of our new CA technique with cup-first procedure in hybrid THA. METHODS Seventy-nine hybrid THAs with the cup-first procedure used a CT-based navigation system for cup positioning. In the preoperative planning, cup anteversion was aimed at approximately 20°. However, in actuality, sufficient cup coverage in the original acetabulum based on individual anatomy is given priority over cup placement based on CT-based planning to ensure adequate cup coverage. The target stem anteversion was determined following Widmer's mathematical formula (37.3 = femoral stem anteversion × 0.7 + cup anteversion). Cemented stem was inserted according to the target stem anteversion angle. RESULTS Regarding the assessment of overall alignment, the calculated Widmer's CA values during surgery and postoperative CT evaluation were 34.1° ± 6.0° (range 20.7°-51.2°) and 35.1° ± 6.7° (range 21.6°-50.7°). There were 72 hips (91.1%) within 25°-50° of CA. Cup protrusion length averaged 2.0 mm ± 2.6 mm (0-8.8 mm) in the axial view and 0.4 mm ± 1.0 mm (0-3.6 mm) in the sagittal view. Cup protrusion length of more than 5 mm was indicated in 10 hips, and no hips observed more than 10 mm. CONCLUSION Our new CA technique (cup-first procedure) with hybrid THA was able to achieve optimal CA value while avoiding anterior cup protrusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior overhang of the acetabular component is associated with iliopsoas impingement, which may cause groin pain and functional limitations after THA. However, little is known about the relationship between component overhang and functional alignment of the acetabular component. CT-based image simulation may be illuminating in learning more about this because CT images are more effective than radiographs for evaluating the component's overhang and position. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Using CT simulations based on preoperative data of nondysplastic and dysplastic hips, we asked: (1) What are the differences in the amount of component overhang, defined as the mediolateral distance from the component's edge to the native acetabular bony boundary on axial images (axial overhang), and as the AP distance on sagittal images (sagittal overhang) among pelvises with neutral and posterior tilt (in which the cephalad portion of the pelvis is more posterior than the caudad portion in the sagittal plane) in patients with dysplastic hips and those with nondysplastic hips? (2) Are increments in the amount of component overhang associated with a difference in the likelihood that the iliopsoas tendon will impinge against the edge of the acetabular component, after controlling for native acetabular abduction and anteversion and the presence of dysplasia? METHODS A total of 128 hips (dysplastic group: 73 hips; nondysplastic group: 55 hips) were evaluated. We defined a dysplastic hip as one with a lateral center-edge angle of less than 20° on AP radiographs. Pelvic models with neutral (0°) and 10° and 20° of posterior tilt were created from CT data. In simulations, acetabular component models were implanted into the true acetabulum with a tilt-adjusted orientation angle that was defined as the component's angle based on a reference for the functional pelvic plane (coronal plane of the body) in each pelvic model. Axial and sagittal component overhang were measured on CT images. Axial overhang of at least 12 mm and sagittal overhang of at least 4 mm were defined as thresholds increasing the likelihood of iliopsoas impingement according to previous studies. When determining the amount of overhang of the acetabular component, we controlled for abduction and anteversion of the native acetabulum and the presence of dysplasia by performing a multivariable logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In dysplastic hips, axial overhang increased by a mean ± SD of 5 ± 1 mm (Bonferroni adjusted p < 0.001; 95% CI, 4.7-5.1) from 0° to 10° of posterior tilt and by 5 ± 1 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 4.9-5.3) from 10° to 20° of posterior tilt. Sagittal overhang increased by 1 ± 0 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 1.0-1.0) from 0° to 10° of posterior tilt and by 1 ± 0 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 1.0-1.0) from 10° to 20° of posterior tilt. In nondysplastic hips, axial overhang increased by a mean of 5 ± 0 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 4.7-5.0) from 0° to 10° of posterior tilt and by 5 ± 1 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 4.6-5.0) from 10° to 20° of posterior tilt. Sagittal overhang increased by 1 ± 0 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 1.0-1.1) from 0° to 10° of posterior tilt and by 1 ± 0 mm (p < 0.001; 95% CI, 1.0-1.1) from 10° to 20° of posterior tilt. After controlling for the presence of dysplasia, we found that native acetabular abduction and anteversion and posterior pelvic tilt, presence of dysplasia (p = 0.030; adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.1-4.6), native acetabular anteversion (p < 0.001; adjusted OR, 1.4; 95% CI, 1.3-1.5), and 10° and 20° of backward tilt compared with 0° of tilt (10° of posterior tilt: p < 0.001; adjusted OR, 15; 95% CI, 5.5-41; 20° of posterior tilt: p < 0.001; adjusted OR, 333; 95% CI, 96-1157) were independently associated with axial overhang of at least 12 mm; the model showed high goodness of fit (Nagelkerke's r = 0.68). In contrast, native acetabular anteversion (p < 0.001; adjusted OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1-1.2) and 20° of backward tilt compared with 0° of tilt (p = 0.015; adjusted OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2-4.0) were independently associated with sagittal overhang of at least 4 mm; the model had low goodness of fit (Nagelkerke's r = 0.20). CONCLUSIONS Acetabular component overhang is more severe when the pelvis tilts posteriorly. Moreover, posterior pelvic tilt, the presence of dysplasia, and higher native acetabular anteversion were independently associated with an increased risk of component overhang. When 20° of posterior tilt was adjusted, the risk of severe overhang was especially increased. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Based on these results, surgeons can attempt to prevent severe overhang in patients with posterior pelvic tilt by increasing component anteversion and abduction; when component anteversion is increased by 8° and abduction is increased by 2° from the target angle of 15° of anteversion and 40° of abduction in patients with posterior tilt of 20°, the risk of severe overhang is reduced to by approximately one-twentieth. However, it is still unclear how much the degree of component anteversion should be increased when surgeons attempt to prevent anterior prosthetic dislocation at the same time. Future studies such as prospective clinical trials evaluating both prosthetic dislocation and iliopsoas impingement in patients with posterior tilt might clarify this issue.

Outcomes of Nonoperative Management, Iliopsoas Tenotomy, and Revision Arthroplasty for Iliopsoas Impingement after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review. J Arthroplasty 2019; 34:2184-2191. [PMID: 31147246 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2019.04.067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2019] [Revised: 04/11/2019] [Accepted: 04/29/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonoperative and operative management of iliopsoas impingement (IPI) is commonly performed following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this systematic review is to compare patient-reported outcomes (PROs) following conservative treatment, iliopsoas (IP) tenotomy, and revision arthroplasty in patients presenting with IPI after THA. METHODS The PubMed and Embase databases were searched for articles regarding IPI following THA. Studies were included if (1) IPI after THA was treated with conservative management, an IP tenotomy, or acetabular component revision and (2) included PROs. RESULTS Eleven articles were selected for review and there were 280 hips treated for IPI following THA. Harris Hip Scores reported for the conservative group, the IP tenotomy group, and the cup revision group were 59.0 preoperatively to 77.8, 58.0 preoperatively to 85.4, and 58.1 preoperatively to 82.4 at latest follow-up, respectively. The IP tenotomy cohort also demonstrated superior postoperative functional outcomes using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Index, Medical Research Council score, Oxford Hip Score, and Merle d'Aubigné-Postel Pain Score. Patients who had a revision exhibited higher Oxford Hip Scores, higher Medical Research Council scores, and lower Visual Analog Scale Pain scores postoperatively. CONCLUSION Management of IPI following THA includes nonoperative measures, IP tenotomy, or acetabular component revision. Patients have been shown to experience favorable PROs at latest follow-up, with an apparent advantage for surgical treatment. Compared to revision arthroplasty, IP tenotomy resulted in a lower overall rate of complications with less severe complication types. Therefore, IP tenotomy should be considered as a second line of treatment for patients who failed conservative measures. Revision arthroplasty should be reserved for recalcitrant cases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acetabular revision arthroplasty using jumbo cups for moderate-to-severe acetabular defects has varied outcomes. We evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of acetabular revision arthroplasty using a press-fitted jumbo cup and sought to identify factors that influence outcomes during intermediate follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty patients (47 men, 33 women; 80 hips) who underwent acetabular revision arthroplasty using press-fitted jumbo cups were included. The mean follow-up period was 10.4 years. Harris hip score (HHS), presence of groin pain, radiographic results, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were evaluated. Implant design and surgery-related and patient-related factors were assessed to identify influential factors for cup loosening. Migration and wear analyses were performed using Einzel-Bild-Röntgen-Analyse software. RESULTS The mean preoperative HHS of 53 had improved to 77 at the final follow-up (p = 0.005). Nine patients experienced groin pain. Acetabular cup loosening was observed in seven cups (8.7%), and one jumbo cup was replaced with a reinforcement cage. The survival rate of the acetabular cup was 91% at 16 years according to the Kaplan-Meier analysis. Osteolysis was identified around the cup in six cases (7.5%). Acetabular cup loosening occurred more frequently in patients with conventional polyethylene liners than in those with highly cross-linked polyethylene liners (p = 0.045). The mean total migration was 1.52 mm, and the mean total wear was 0.98 mm. There was a positive correlation between total migration and total wear (p = 0.023; Spearman's rho = 0.388). The mean wear rate of the patients with the cup inclination angle < 50° was significantly lower than those with the cup inclination angle > 50° (p = 0.001). There were four cases of complications (three dislocations and one infection) that did not require revision surgery. CONCLUSION Press-fitted jumbo cups for acetabular revision arthroplasty exhibited encouraging results during follow-up for an average of 10 years. Use of highly cross-linked polyethylene liners and proper placement of the acetabular component with an inclination angle < 50° may contribute to better clinical outcomes after acetabular revision arthroplasty with jumbo cups.

Abstract
Background: The use of hip arthroscopic surgery in patients suffering from chronic hip pain after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has a limited presence in the literature, with most studies having limited follow-up. Purpose: The first goal of this study was to evaluate hip arthroscopic surgery in the diagnosis and management of patients with chronic hip pain after THA. The second goal was to describe a new cause of iliopsoas tendinopathy (IPT) involving disruption of the anterior capsule. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis with prospectively collected clinical outcomes of patients after THA who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for chronic hip pain without an identifiable cause. The patients were at least 18 years old and had a minimum follow-up of 24 months. Results: The retrospective analysis found that hip arthroscopic surgery led to new diagnostic information in 8 patients (80%). Of the 10 patients diagnosed with IPT, 4 (40%) lacked an anatomic cause; however, these patients had a history of difficult exposure of the anterior capsule and/or a lack of capsular repair during index THA. The mean modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) was 71.9 ± 15.6, and the mean 6-month postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) pain score was 0.8 ± 2.2, which was significantly lower than preoperatively (P = .0055). There was also significantly improved forward flexion range of motion (P = .0183) and straight leg raise (SLR) strength test results (P = .0263). Hip arthroscopic surgery resulted in 8 patients (80%) continuing to be pain-free at a mean follow-up of 6.8 ± 1.4 years, while 2 patients (20%) progressed to revision arthroplasty. There were no major or minor complications. Conclusion: Hip arthroscopic surgery was found to have an important role in the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with chronic hip pain after THA, with good clinical outcomes at a mean follow-up of 6.8 years and no complications. We believe that disruption of the anterosuperior acetabular capsule, including the reflected head of the rectus femoris, can allow the iliopsoas tendon to move intra-articularly and precipitate IPT. This disruption may be appreciated on the SLR strength test. Although this study presents a small sample size that cannot substantiate a cause-effect relationship, orthopaedic surgeons performing THA should consider minimizing disruption and/or ensuring repair of the anterior capsule to decrease this potential cause of IPT.

Total hip arthroplasty using stem-first technique with navigation: the potential of achievement of the optimal combined anteversion being a risk factor for anterior cup protrusion. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY AND TRAUMATOLOGY 2019; 29:807-812. [PMID: 30656429 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-019-02383-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2018] [Accepted: 01/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE In the combined anteversion (CA) technique for total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a cementless stem, cup anteversion is strongly influenced by the native femoral anteversion. It is hypothesized that in cases with large native femoral anteversion, cup anteversion can be decreased, and anterior cup protrusion from the anterior edge of the acetabulum could occur due to the achievement of optimal CA. In this study, the accuracy of CA in THA with the CA technique using imageless navigation and the relationship between the protrusion of the anterior edge of cup and optimum CA was retrospectively evaluated. METHODS Ninety-seven patients (104 hips) who underwent primary THA by the CA technique using image-free navigation were enrolled in the study. The femoral stem was placed following the individual femoral anteversion so that the target cup anteversion could be determined following a mathematical formula (37 = femoral stem anteversion × 0.7 + cup anteversion). Results The resulting CA values effectively achieved accurate CA with 39.49 ± 5.03° postoperatively. On the other hand, anterior cup protrusion was measured by computed tomography image. A cup protrusion length of more than 3 mm was indicated for 60 cases (57.7%). All included patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 as protrusion positive and Group 2 as protrusion negative. In Group 1, preoperative femoral anteversion and postoperative stem anteversion were significantly higher, while postoperative cup anteversion was significantly lower. However, the postoperative CA value indicated no significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSIONS The CA (stem-first) technique with image-free navigated THA could effectively achieve accurate CA. On the other hand, a large number of cases revealed anterior cup protrusion due to the low cup anteversion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE WORK Groin pain after hip arthroplasty (HA) ranges from 0.4% to 18.3%. Defining the cause of groin pain after HA can be difficult. Iliopsoas impingement (IPI) has been reported to be the underlying cause of groin pain in up to 4.4% of cases. The purpose of this study is to present arthroscopic surgical outcomes in the treatment of IPI after HA. METHODS Between September 2013 and March 2018, 13 patients, 11 total hip arthroplasty (THA), 1 hip endoprosthesis and 1 total hip resurfacing affected by groin pain due to unceasing iliopsoas tendinopathy for impingement after HA were treated arthroscopically. The patients underwent to physical examination, blood analysis, hip X-rays, bone scintigraphy and CT assessment. We performed the arthroscopic OUT-IN access to hip joint in all patients. VAS scale, Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Medical Research Council (MRC) scale were performed before surgery and during follow up at 1-3-6-12 months. RESULTS After 10 months of mean follow-up, average HHS and MRC scale improved significantly from preoperatively to postoperatively. No complications arose in our case series. CONCLUSIONS Hip arthroscopy after hip arthroplasty is supported in the literature for a variety of indications. Hip arthroscopy is a viable and reproducible technique in treatment of IPI, being less invasive than the classic open technique. This simple arthroscopic release provides satisfactory results and preserves HA function. Moreover an arthroscopic OUT-IN access proves good clinical outcomes, few complications and iatrogenic lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Groin pain and functional limitations may occur after total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to iliopsoas impingement (IPI). We aimed to determine the risk factors and thresholds of cup protrusion for symptomatic IPI. METHODS This retrospective case-control study evaluated 569 primary THAs performed by a single surgeon in a single center. In all THAs, the cup was inserted with the assistance of the computed tomography-based navigation system. Twenty-two THAs (3.9%) were identified to have symptoms of IPI and included in the IPI group. Control group 1 comprised 547 THAs. Control group 2 (66 THAs) was formed by recruiting 3 data-matched controls per patient in control group 1. Risk factors for IPI were assessed in the IPI group and control group 1. Further analysis was performed in the IPI group and control group 2 to evaluate cup protrusion parameters measured on computed tomography images and radiographs. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that the anterolateral approach was associated with a higher risk of IPI (odds ratio [OR], 4.20); however, its goodness of fit was low. Axial protrusion length ≥12 mm (OR, 23.29; sensitivity = 72.7; specificity = 91.0) and sagittal protrusion length ≥4 mm (OR, 61.60; sensitivity = 86.4; specificity = 78.8) were determined as independent predictors of symptomatic IPI. In the linear regression analyses, higher native acetabular version and lower cup anteversion and inclination were related to cup protrusion. CONCLUSIONS This study determined the thresholds of cup protrusion length for IPI and identified associated factors increasing cup protrusion, which are useful for surgeons in determining cup position and alignment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess visibility of the acetabular cup in total hip replacement and to determine the value of direct and indirect signs of iliopsoas impingement syndrome with ultrasound. METHODS Ultrasound examinations were performed by a single operator in 17 patients with iliopsoas impingement syndrome and 48 control patients. Cup visibility, contact between the cup and psoas tendon, and the presence of indirect signs of iliopsoas impingement syndrome were investigated in all patients. When the acetabular cup was visible, its size and position in relation to the psoas tendon were recorded. RESULTS Anterior cup visibility (P = .03), contact with the psoas tendon (P < .001), psoas tendinopathy (P = .02), and iliopsoas bursitis (P < .001) were significantly associated with iliopsoas impingement syndrome, the latter reported with specificity of 100%. In the sagittal plane at the level of the psoas tendon, a maximum sagittal length of greater than 5 mm and a posteroanterior cup shift of 3 mm or greater yielded respective sensitivities of 82% and 59% and specificities of 81% and 100%. CONCLUSIONS When iliopsoas impingement syndrome is clinically suspected, the presence of iliopsoas bursitis or a posteroanterior cup shift of greater than 3 mm under the psoas tendon serve to confirm the diagnosis. In the absence of these conditions, a therapeutic test may be necessary because of the incomplete, albeit high, specificity of other signs.

Abstract
A stem loosening is one of the significant problem in the bipolar hip arthroplasty (BHA), causes a pain and instability of a patient’s hip, and requires a further surgery of BHA. A stem canal fill ratio (SCFR), a general evaluation of the stem loosening, have been clinically studied many; however, a determination of the optimal SCFR evaluation has not been still understood well. A purpose of this study is to propose an automatic and quantitative evaluation of SCFR from BHA hip X-ray image. A proposed method segmented the femoral canal and stem, and evaluated SCFR. In experiments, a proposed method’s accuracy was validated, and six BHA patients’ SCFRs were clinically evaluated (age 88±7 (74–93), one male / five females). In result of the proposed method’s accuracy, the femur canal was 90.60±3.65%, and the stem was 97.83±0.46%; therefore, the proposed method had the accuracy to well evaluate SCFR. Result of six BHA patients’ SCFRs was 63.70±5.62%. In conclusion, the proposed method was able to automatically evaluate SCFR from the hip X-ray image with BHA.

Abstract
PURPOSE To conduct a systematic review of the literature comparing patient outcomes following arthroscopic and open operative management of iliopsoas tendonitis (IPT) following total hip replacement (THR). METHODS This review study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement. Inclusion criteria were as follows: outcome studies following open or arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release after THR with at least 6 months of follow-up, English language, and human studies. The exclusion criteria included case reports, articles evaluating nonsurgical management or cup revision, and articles without a specific diagnosis of IPT or in which results between open and arthroscopic treatment were reported in conjunction. RESULTS A total of 131 studies were initially retrieved, with 7 satisfying all inclusion criteria (4 studies on arthroscopic tenotomy and 3 studies on open tenotomy). The review included a total of 88 patients with IPT-61 patients treated arthroscopically and 27 patients treated with open tenotomy. In total, 77 of the 88 patients demonstrated successful outcomes following surgery. In the group treated with arthroscopy, 91.8% (56/61) of patients had successful outcomes, whereas in those treated with open tenotomy, 77.8% (21/27) of patients had successful outcomes. Of patients with signs of mechanical impingement from acetabular component overhang, those who underwent open tenotomy had complete pain relief in 6/8 patients (75%) compared to arthroscopic tenotomy in which there was relief in 40/43 patients (93%). CONCLUSIONS Arthroscopic iliopsoas release for management of IPT is suggested to be an effective minimally invasive operative technique that may also yield a lower complication rate in comparison to open tenotomy. Tenotomy, both arthroscopic and open, are successful treatment options for IPT, including those with signs of mechanical impingement, and are recommended prior to cup revision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The acetabular fossa is thought to be located in the center of the acetabulum, and acetabular reaming in total hip arthroplasty is conventionally performed in the center of the fossa. However, the actual location of the fossa and the influence that hypoplasia or deformity may have on the position of the fossa are unknown. We hypothesized that the fossa is located in the center of the acetabulum, regardless of hypoplasia or deformity. METHODS Fifty patients with normal hips (normal hip group), 50 patients with dysplasia who underwent rotational acetabular osteotomy (dysplastic hip group), and 46 patients with osteoarthritis who underwent total hip arthroplasty (osteoarthritic hip group) were evaluated by computed tomography (CT) imaging. On the horizontal plane that passes through the center of the femoral head, the center line of the acetabulum was defined as the perpendicular bisector of the anterior and posterior rims of the acetabulum. The angle and distance of the center of the acetabular fossa in relation to the center line of the acetabulum were evaluated; furthermore, the center position of the fossa from the anterior margin of the acetabulum was calculated as a ratio relative to acetabular size. A 1-way analysis of variance was performed to compare measurements among the 3 groups. RESULTS The center of the acetabular fossa was positioned anteriorly to the center line of the acetabulum in all 3 groups. The mean center angle of the acetabular fossa was 14.0° ± 3.8°, 15.2° ± 5.6°, and 14.9° ± 5.5° in the normal, dysplastic, and osteoarthritic hip groups, respectively (p = 0.33). The mean center distance of the acetabular fossa was 5.6 ± 1.8, 5.8 ± 2.3, and 6.1 ± 2.2 mm, respectively (p = 0.55). The mean center position of the acetabular fossa was 38.8% ± 3.3%, 38.5% ± 4.2%, and 38.3% ± 3.9%, respectively (p = 0.71). CONCLUSIONS The center of the acetabular fossa is positioned anteriorly to the center of the acetabulum, and the positioning is affected by neither dysplasia nor osteoarthritis. The preconception that the center of the acetabulum corresponds to the center of the acetabular fossa may risk eccentric reaming, possibly damaging the anterior wall. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impingement of the ilio-psoas tendon on the acetabular component is a cause of pain after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Studies of cup revision for ilio-psoas impingement (IPI) are scarce and limited in size. We therefore conducted a large multicentre retrospective study with the following objectives: to assess the effectiveness of cup replacement in resolving the impingement syndrome, to determine the frequency and nature of complications after cup revision for IPI, and to identify pre-operative factors associated with good outcomes of cup revision for IPI. HYPOTHESIS Cup revision is effective in resolving the pain due to IPI in selected patients. METHODS This retrospective multicentre study included 46 patients who underwent cup revision because of IPI. Before the revision, 38 (83%) patients had prominence of the anterior cup rim (mean, 9.9±4.5mm (range, 2-22mm) by radiography and 35 (76%) had cup malposition (anteversion<10° and/or inclination>50°). Mean follow-up was 21months (range, 6months to 6 years) and no patient was lost to follow-up. Outcomes at last follow-up were assessed based on the Oxford Hip Score (OHS), patient satisfaction index, complications, and revisions. RESULTS At last follow-up, 39 (85%) patients were satisfied with the revision procedure, a significant improvement versus baseline was noted in the OHS (mean, 43±6; range, 25-48; P<0.001), and 41 patients were free of pain during hip flexion (P<0.001 versus baseline). Complications occurred in 3 (6.5%) patients, but only one complication was severe (deep infection). Recurrent groin pain was reported by 4 (8.7%) patients at last follow-up. None of the factors studied predicted the outcome of revision surgery. DISCUSSION Cup revision for IPI after THA is effective in relieving the groin pain in 80% of patients with anterior cup rim prominence and/or cup malposition. However, complications can occur. Tenotomy may be preferable when the diagnosis is in doubt and/or cup position is acceptable. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, retrospective observational study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A potential cause of persistent groin pain after total hip arthroplasty is impingement of the iliopsoas tendon. Treatment options include conservative management, tenotomy, and acetabular revision, but the literature, to our knowledge, has been limited to small case series on each technique. We present a series of patients with iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty and evaluate efficacy and risk factors for success or failure of each treatment strategy. METHODS Forty-nine patients treated at one institution for a diagnosis of iliopsoas impingement after primary total hip arthroplasty with hemispherical acetabular component and polyethylene bearing were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty-one patients underwent acetabular revision, 8 patients underwent tenotomy, and 20 patients had nonoperative management. The mean follow-up was 4 years. Anterior acetabular component prominence was measured on true lateral hip radiographs. RESULTS At the most recent follow-up, 10 patients (50%) in the nonoperative group had groin pain resolution compared with 22 patients (76%) in the operative group (p = 0.06). In patients with <8 mm of component prominence, tenotomy provided resolution of groin pain in 5 (100%) of 5 patients and a mean Harris hip score of 89 points. In patients with ≥8 mm of prominence, acetabular revision led to groin pain resolution in 12 (92%) of 13 patients compared with 1 (33%) of 3 patients treated with tenotomy (p = 0.07). CONCLUSIONS Nonoperative management of iliopsoas impingement led to groin pain resolution in 50% of patients. In patients with minimal acetabular component prominence, iliopsoas release provided a high rate of success. Acetabular revision was more predictable for groin pain resolution in patients with ≥8 mm of anterior component prominence. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Determining the aetiology of persistent pain following total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be challenging. Impingement of the iliopsoas muscle due to a malpositioned acetabular component after THA might be a potential cause of postoperative groin pain. METHODS We retrospectively analysed the data of 12 consecutive patients from our orthopaedic department who underwent cup revision for painful iliopsoas impingement after primary THA. RESULTS Thorough physical examination as well as radiological assessment of the included patients revealed that malpositioning of the acetabular component provoked iliopsoas impingement.The Harris Hip Score and the orientation of the acetabular component before and after surgical revision at an average follow-up of 56 months were analysed. CONCLUSIONS We were able to demonstrate that surgical cup revision and reorientation resulted in distinctly improved scores and is a feasible option to effectively treat persistent iliopsoas impingement due to a malpositioned acetabular component following THA.
