Abstract
BACKGROUND The Hueter-Anterior Approach (HAA) with its limited soft tissue and internervous dissection has been shown to be an effective approach for primary total hip and hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients requiring revision of HRA to total hip replacement using the HAA, assessing function and complications. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained research database. Between 2006 and 2015, 555 primary metal-on-metal (MoM) HRAs were performed via the HAA; we identified 33 hips in 30 patients that required revisions for aseptic causes to THA: aseptic loosening of acetabulum in 12 and femoral in 7, 10 for pseudotumour/ALTR, 4 for femoral neck fracture. All revision surgeries were performed through a HAA by a single surgeon who had also performed the index operation. PROMs were collected preoperatively and yearly at various timepoints postoperatively. RESULTS The mean age at time of revision was 48.9 years (±5.3 SD) for 22 males (67%) and 11 females (33%). The mean time to revision surgery/failure of hip resurfacing was 3.3 years (±2.4 SD). There were 5 major reoperations with 3 infections, 1 acetabular loosening and 1 trunnionosis. There were significant improvements in multiple PROMs. CONCLUSIONS The HAA is a viable surgical approach for revision of HRA with smaller initial HRA acetabular components generally requiring a relatively larger acetabular compoent at time of revision. Patients reported improvement in symptoms and function and a lower risk of subsequent reoperation than what has previously been reported for failed MoM bearings.

World J Orthop 2024; 15:73-93. [PMID: 38293261 PMCID: PMC10824060 DOI: 10.5312/wjo.v15.i1.73] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty is as an effective intervention to relieve pain and improve hip function. Approaches of the hip have been exhaustively explored about pros and cons. The efficacy and the complications of hip approaches remains inconclusive. This study conducted an umbrella review to systematically appraise previous meta-analysis (MAs) including conventional posterior approach (PA), and minimally invasive surgeries as the lateral approach (LA), direct anterior approach (DAA), 2-incisions method, mini-lateral approach and the newest technique direct superior approach (DSA) or supercapsular percutaneously-assisted total hip (SuperPath). AIM To compare the efficacy and complications of hip approaches that have been published in all MAs and randomized controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS MAs were identified from MEDLINE and Scopus from inception until 2023. RCTs were then updated from the latest MA to September 2023. This study included studies which compared hip approaches and reported at least one outcome such as Harris Hip Score (HHS), dislocation, intra-operative fracture, wound complication, nerve injury, operative time, operative blood loss, length of hospital stay, incision length and VAS pain. Data were independently selected, extracted and assessed by two reviewers. Network MA and cluster rank and surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) were estimated for treatment efficacy and safety. RESULTS Finally, twenty-eight MAs (40 RCTs), and 13 RCTs were retrieved. In total 47 RCTs were included for reanalysis. The results of corrected covered area showed high degree (13.80%). Among 47 RCTs, most of the studies were low risk of bias in part of random process and outcome reporting, while other domains were medium to high risk of bias. DAA significantly provided higher HHS at three months than PA [pooled unstandardized mean difference (USMD): 3.49, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.98, 6.00 with SUCRA: 85.9], followed by DSA/SuperPath (USMD: 1.57, 95%CI: -1.55, 4.69 with SUCRA: 57.6). All approaches had indifferent dislocation and intraoperative fracture rates. SUCRA comparing early functional outcome and composite complications (dislocation, intra-operative fracture, wound complication, and nerve injury) found DAA was the best approach followed by DSA/SuperPath. CONCLUSION DSA/SuperPath had better earlier functional outcome than PA, but still could not overcome the result of DAA. This technique might be the other preferred option with acceptable complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a frequent complication following hip arthroplasty. There still has been a lack of studies analyzing the perioperative risk factors of DVT following hip arthroplasty via direct anterior approach (DAA). METHODS Patients who underwent unilateral primary hip arthroplasty via DAA in our hospital from August 2015 to January 2022 were included. Patients' data, including demographic data, clinical features, past medical history, operative data, and laboratory data, were analyzed and compared between patients with and without DVT. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the independent risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the best cutoff value of continuous variables with statistical significance. RESULT A total of 651 patients were included. The incidence of DVT before and after hip arthroplasty was 12.7% and 6.7%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis indicated that age ≥ 65 years (OR 4.594, 95% CI 1.994-10.587), women (OR 2.331, 95% CI 1.285-4.227), and cerebral infarction (OR 1.984, 95% CI 1.138-3.460) were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT. And age ≥ 65 years (OR 4.859, 95% CI 1.062-22.226), tumor (OR 3.622, 95% CI 1.108-11.841), and preoperative D-dimer (OR 1.040, 95% CI 1.004-1.078) were risk factors for postoperative DVT. The ROC curve analysis showed that the best cutoff value of preoperative D-dimer for the diagnosis of postoperative DVT is 1.44 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of DVT in patients undergoing DAA hip arthroplasty was low and the occurrence of DVT before and after unilateral primary hip arthroplasty performed through DAA was related to multiple factors.

Which patient benefit most from minimally invasive direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty in terms of perioperative blood loss? A retrospective comparative study from a cohort of patients with primary degenerative hips. Musculoskelet Surg 2023; 107:431-437. [PMID: 37314642 PMCID: PMC10709233 DOI: 10.1007/s12306-023-00792-z] [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: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a successful surgery, but despite the advancements in anesthesiology and orthopedics, sometimes blood transfusions are required to manage the anemia due to the blood loss, involving a substantial number of patients. The aim of this retrospective comparative study is to define how the choice of the surgical approach, either direct anterior (DA) or posterolateral (PL), may influence the postoperative blood loss and the need for transfusion in THA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data collection was carried out retrospectively of THAs performed between 2016 and 2021 on primary hip osteoarthritis treated by DA or with PL approach. Clinical and perioperative anesthetic data were collected. Preoperative hemoglobin levels were compared with the lowest detected level by calculating ΔHb (hemoglobin decrease). Then, data from the two groups were cross-checked: duration of surgery, whether premedication with tranexamic acid, duration of the hospitalization, rate of need for hemotransfusions, and amount of blood transfused. The two samples were subdivided into subgroups according to age, BMI, tranexamic acid prophylaxis, and chronic treatment with drugs that alter coagulative properties. RESULTS Time of surgery was longer for patients treated with DA access (mean DA: 78.8 min; mean PL: 74.8 min; p: 0.05; 95% CI), but the length of hospitalization was shorter for patients treated with DA group with a mean time of 6.23 days versus 7.12 days for the PL group (p < 0.01). DA THA resulted advantageous mainly in patients between 66 and 75 years, showing a reduced postoperative transfusion requirement in the postoperative period (DA: 13.43%-mean: 1.33 units; PL: 26.82%-mean: 1.18 units; p: 0.044, 95% CI). Patients that assume blood-altering drugs showed a higher transfusion rate (p < 0.01), but comparison of the two subgroups showed that the choice of the surgical approach did not significantly affect the transfusion rate in these patients (p: 0.512). Prophylaxis with tranexamic acid reduced the transfusion rate (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Patients treated by minimally invasive direct anterior approach undergo a significantly shorter hospitalization. From the analysis of patient's subgroups those aged between 66- and 75-years benefit from the DA approach mainly for the minor blood loss with less frequent transfusion requirement.

Direct anterior approach versus posterolateral approach for total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in elderly patients: a meta-analysis and systematic review. Ann Med 2023; 55:1378-1392. [PMID: 37000019 PMCID: PMC10071980 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2023.2193424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the postoperative clinical outcomes of elderly patients who underwent the direct anterior approach (DAA) versus those who received posterolateral approach (PLA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of femoral neck fractures. METHODS An electronic search was conducted in databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and CNKI from their inception to January 2022. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) and mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess the effect of DAA compared to PLA for the management of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in elderly patients using the dichotomous or continuous method with a random or fixed-effect model. RESULTS 15 studies involving 1284 patients were included; 640 patients receiving DAA and 644 patients receiving PLA. DAA had a longer surgery duration than PLA [WMD = 9.41, 95% CI (4.64, 14.19), I2=95.5%]; The amount of postoperative drainage [WMD= -3.88, 95% CI (-5.59, -2.17), I2=98.3%], length of incision [WMD= -3.88, 95% CI (-5.59, -2.17), I2=98.3%], blood loss [WMD= -3.88, 95% CI (-5.59, -2.17), I2=98.3%], hospitalization time [WMD= -3.88, 95% CI (-5.59, -2.17), I2=98.3%], and postoperative bedtime [WMD = -5.56,95% CI (-7.11, -4.01), I2=99.0%], were similar between the two groups (p < 0.05). The HHS at 1 month, 12 months postoperatively [WMD = 7.58, 95%CI (5.70,9.46), I2=89.5%; WMD= 2.56, 95%CI 0.11,5.00, I2=93.2%] and the incidence of LFCN in patients were higher in the DAA group (OR = 2.91, 95% CI 1.26 to 6.71, I2=0.0%), while fewer patients in the DAA group suffered from postoperative dislocation than in the PLA group (OR = 0.26, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.60, I2=0.0%). No significant difference was observed in HHS at 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively, VAS postoperatively at each time point, acetabular anteversion angle, acetabular abduction angle, wound infection, deep vein thrombosis, and intraoperative fracture (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS DAA offers a quicker functional recovery and is less invasive with an earlier return to daily activities in older THA patients than PLA. However, DAA was found to be associated with a high incidence of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury and a low incidence of postoperative dislocation.Key messagesThe present study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes in elderly patients receiving DAA versus PLA for THA in the treatment of femoral neck fractures by mate-analysis.DAA offers a quicker functional recovery and is less invasive with an earlier return to daily activities in older THA patients. No significant difference was observed between the colchicine and comparators in terms of the need for HHS at 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively, VAS postoperatively, acetabular anteversion angle, acetabular abduction angle, and complications (wound infection, deep vein thrombosis, and intraoperative fracture).

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are several approaches to THA, and each has their respective advantages and disadvantages. Previous meta-analysis included non-randomised studies that introduce further heterogeneity and bias to the evidence presented. This meta-analysis aims to present level I evidence by comparing functional outcomes, peri-operative parameters and complications of direct anterior approach (DAA) versus posterior approach (PA) or lateral approach (LA) in THA. PATIENTS AND METHODS A comprehensive multi-database search (PubMed, OVID Medline, EMBASE) was conducted from date of database inception to 1st December 2020. Data from randomised controlled trials comparing outcomes of DAA versus PA or LA in THA were extracted and analysed. RESULTS Twenty-four studies comprising 2010 patients were included in this meta-analysis. DAA has a longer operative time (MD = 17.38 min, 95%CI: 12.28, 22.47 min, P < 0.001) but a shorter length of stay compared to PA (MD = - 0.33 days, 95%CI: - 0.55, - 0.11 days, P = 0.003). There was no difference in operative time or length of stay when comparing DAA versus LA. DAA also had significantly better HHS than PA at 6 weeks (MD = 8.00, 95%CI: 5.85, 10.15, P < 0.001) and LA at 12 weeks (MD = 2.23, 95%CI: 0.31, 4.15, P = 0.02). There was no significant difference in risk of neurapraxia for DAA versus LA or in risk of dislocations, periprosthetic fractures or VTE between DAA and PA or DAA and LA. CONCLUSION The DAA has better early functional outcomes with shorter mean length of stay but was associated with a longer operative time than PA. There was no difference in risk of dislocations, neurapraxias, periprosthetic fractures or VTE between approaches. Based on our results, choice of THA approach should ultimately be guided by surgeon experience, surgeon preference and patient factors. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE I Meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Instability constitutes the main reason for revision hip arthroplasties. Modified polyethylene liners are designed to improve the stability of a hip replacement. In July 2022 The Bone & Joint Journal published a study with data of the German Arthroplasty Registry (EPRD). The study investigated mechanical failure of standard and modified liner designs in primary, cementless total hip arthroplasty. Following the study, the EPRD conducted a survey of German clinics to research the utilization of lipped liners in primary total hip replacement. METHODS The liner study included 151,096 primary, elective, cementless total hip arthroplasties. Data from November 2012 to November 2020 were obtained from the EPRD. Standard polyethylene liners were compared with lipped, angulated, offset and angulated/offset inlays. Cumulative incidences for endpoint revision due to mechanical complication were calculated with a competing risk analysis. The influence of other variables was investigated with a multivariate Cox regression. In the following online survey, 237 out of 789 hospitals completed a form. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION In our analysis, only offset liners were, compared to standard liners, associated with a reduced risk of mechanical failure in a short to medium follow up. However, the resultant joint reaction force is increased with offset liners due to the lateralization of the hip center of rotation. Thus, the long-term performance of offset liners needs to be observed. Our survey indicated that lipped liners were implanted more often if the posterior approach was used. Moreover, lipped liners were mostly positioned with the elevated rim in the biomechanically less optimal posterior-superior quadrant. To improve stability it is suggested to position the elevated rim in the posterior-inferior quadrant.

Abstract
These surgical procedures have their own challenges, limitations, and success rate. The choice of surgical approach will depend on many factors including the surgeon's choice, type of pathology, bone stock, age of the patient, and experience of the surgeon. Whichever approach is used for total hip arthroplasty (THA), the primary goals of the surgery would be pain relief and enhancement in the quality of the patient's life suffering from hip pathologies. To further understand the advantages and potential pitfalls associated with different surgical approaches, we conducted a review study comparing different surgical approaches for THA in terms of their clinical and functional outcomes. All the studies done on surgical approaches used in THA published articles in the English language and from 2015 onward were included in the review. The databases searched were COCHRANE, MEDLINE, PEDRO, CINHAL, etc. Search engines that were searched were Google Scholar, Pub Med, and Science Direct. As per the inclusion criteria, out of 50 studies, 26 studies were included in the study which underwent critical analysis. Considering all the factors reviewed from the literature, the posterior approach or posterolateral approach is optimally beneficial.

Blood management in direct anterior versus posterior primary total hip arthroplasty using tranexamic acid: a matched cohort study. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:91-95. [PMID: 34152489 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-021-03965-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proponents of the direct anterior approach (DAA) for THA claim patients recover faster compared to primary THA through the posterior approach (PA). Blood loss and transfusion have substantially declined with the use of tranexamic acid (TXA). However, it is still controversial if hemoglobin drops and transfusion rates are affected by the surgical approach when TXA is routinely used. MATERIALS AND METHODS 2418 patients undergoing DAA THA were matched 1:1 with patients undergoing PA THA according to preoperative hemoglobin (± 1 g/dl), age (± 5 years), sex, BMI (± 5 kg/m2) and year of surgery (± 2 years). All patients received perioperative TXA. None of the patients donated autologous blood. Hemoglobin levels, drain placement and output, blood transfusion rates and volume as well as length of stay were recorded. RESULTS A closed suction drain was used in 121 (5.0%) DAA and in 135 (5.6%) PA THAs (p = 0.369). Mean drain output was higher in the DAA compared to the PA group (134 ml (0-520 ml) versus 92.3 ml (0-600 ml), p = 0.004). There was no difference in hemoglobin drop [2.6 g/dl versus 2.6 g/dl (p = 0.143)] and transfusion rate [n = 31 (1.3%) versus n = 29 (1.2%), p = 0.793)] between DAA and PA THA. Mean transfusion amounts were 421.8 ml (250-1120.8 ml) in the DAA and 353.9 ml (250-560 ml) in the PA group (p = 0.801). The length of stay was shorter in the DAA group with a mean 1.6 days versus 2.1 days in the PA group (p ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION In this large matched cohort study, there was no difference in the perioperative hemoglobin drop, the transfusion rate and the transfusion amount between DAA and PA THA.

Orthop Surg 2022; 14:2563-2570. [PMID: 36056786 PMCID: PMC9531103 DOI: 10.1111/os.13444] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2021] [Revised: 06/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the clinical results of the direct anterior approach (DAA) and posterolateral approach (PLA) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. METHODS From January 2017 to September 2019, 80 patients who received primary THA in our hospital were retrospectively selected based on the propensity score matching (PSM) method. Baseline characteristics of patients who underwent the DAA and PLA were collected. Moreover, the incision length, intraoperative blood loss, operative time, length of stay, and Harris hip score were compared between patients in the two groups. The CK level was used to assess muscle damage between patients in the DAA and PLA groups. The complications of these two approaches were also evaluated at patients' 12-month follow-up evaluation. RESULTS There was no significant difference in baseline characteristics between patients in the two groups (p > 0.05). The patients in the DAA group had a shorter incision length (9.2 ± 0.2 vs 14.7 ± 0.5, respectively; p < 0.05) and shorter length of hospital stay (9.5 ± 0.7 vs 12.9 ± 0.8, respectively, p < 0.05) than patients in the PLA group. Moreover, the DAA was associated with a decrease in intraoperative blood loss compared with the PLA (109.1 ± 12.6 vs 305.1 ± 14.1 ml, respectively, p < 0.05). However, the operation time was longer in patients in the DAA group (130.7 ± 1.7) than in patients in the PLA group (112.6 ± 1.3 min, p < 0.05). The CK level of patients in the DAA group was lower than that of patients in the PLA group (p < 0.05). The CK level at 48 h post-surgery was negatively correlated with the Harris hip scores at 6 months after THA (r = -0.538, p = 0.000). Compared with patients in the PLA group, the muscle strength of patients in the DAA group was significantly higher than that of patients in the DAA group at 4 days (p < 0.05) and 7 days (p < 0.05) after THA. The Harris hip scores of patients in the DAA group and PLA group were 81.0 ± 0.8 vs 70.8 ± 0.7 at 6 weeks, 93.4 ± 0.9 vs 86.4 ± 0.6 at 3 months, and 96.8 ± 1.1 vs 93.4 ± 0.8 at 6 months, respectively, both p < 0.05. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between patients in the DAA and PLA groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION DAA was superior to the PLA in improving hip function after THA. Compared with the PLA, the DAA could reduce muscle damage, which is negatively correlated with hip function. Further multi-institution studies are required with longer follow-up durations, and larger patient populations are needed to provide more definitive conclusions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip hemiarthroplasty (HA) is commonly used to treat femoral neck fractures, but it remains unclear if the surgical approach impacts patient outcomes for this commonly performed procedure. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess early postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing HA for femoral neck fracture with the direct anterior approach (DAA) compared with other approaches. METHODS The Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar databases were searched for randomized controlled trials, prospective nonrandomized trials, and retrospective studies published prior to September 7, 2021, comparing DAA with other approaches (anterolateral approach [ALA], direct lateral approach [DLA], and posterior-based approach [PA]) in HA for femoral neck fractures. This study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Outcomes included functional outcomes, total complications, prosthetic dislocation, periprosthetic fracture, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), reoperation, mortality, pain, operative time, and perioperative blood loss. Fixed effect odds ratios, along with their 95% confidence intervals, were used to analyze dichotomous variables. Significance was set at p < 0.05. Meta-analysis was conducted with Review Manager 5.4. RESULTS In total, 19 studies were included for qualitative analysis and 16 studies were included for quantitative analysis, with a total of 1,604 cases analyzed (723 DAA, 215 ALA, 301 DLA, and 365 PA). Compared with other approaches, the use of the DAA for HA was associated with improved early postoperative functional outcomes, lower early postoperative pain scores, fewer total complications, and fewer prosthetic hip dislocations. The rates of periprosthetic fracture, PJI, and reoperation, pain scores beyond 40 days, operative time, perioperative blood loss, and mortality were not significantly different between surgical approaches. CONCLUSIONS Utilizing the DAA while performing HA for femoral neck fractures is associated with improved functional outcomes, lower early postoperative pain scores, lower incidence of prosthetic hip dislocation, and potentially fewer total complications. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Optimizing Rapid Recovery After Anterior Hip Arthroplasty Surgery: A Comparative Study of Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block and Local Infiltration Analgesia. J Arthroplasty 2022; 37:1338-1347. [PMID: 35306161 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.03.040] [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: 12/08/2021] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Multimodal pain therapy combining analgesics, local infiltration analgesia (LIA) and peripheral nerve blocks, such as fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB), can improve postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ambulation in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). We hypothesized that addition of FICB would decrease opioid requirements and length of stay (LOS) but could create a motor block. METHODS This is a single center, prospective, blinded randomized controlled study of 152 patients undergoing elective THA via direct anterior approach from October 2019 till August 2021. Three patient groups were defined: patients receiving only spinal anesthesia (control group, n = 53); spinal anesthesia with LIA perioperatively (n = 50); and spinal anesthesia with FICB on the recovery unit (n = 49). Outcome measures consisted of postoperative pain scores, PONV, length of hospital stay, opioid requirements and mobility. RESULTS Overall pain scores were low for all patient groups, with a lower pain score for LIA in comparison to the control group until 4 hours postoperatively (P < .05). Length of hospital stay, postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting (PONV) scores and quadriceps muscle strength did not differ significantly between groups. The control group showed higher scores at 12 hours postoperatively in comparison to FICB regarding rehabilitation potential, use of walking aids and activities of daily living (P < .05), but all groups reached the same endpoint 48 hours postoperatively. The LIA and FICB groups required less opioids until 24 hours postoperatively. CONCLUSION LIA is a beneficial adjuvant therapy to spinal anesthesia in THA patients as it may decrease pain scores and the need for opioid consumption. Adjuvant FICB only provided lower opioid requirements.

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2022; 32:767-774. [PMID: 34129119 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-021-03039-4] [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: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of the present study was to compare a novice surgeon's learning curves with the direct anterior approach and posterior approach in total hip arthroplasty. METHODS A consecutive series of 376 total hip arthroplasties performed from November 2014 to September 2019 in a level-one healthcare center by a single surgeon (V.B) were retrospectively studied. Demographic data, functional outcomes, and complications were collected and compared. RESULTS Within the ranks of the patients studied, we found differences between groups with respect to dislocation rate and length of stay; these were lower in the direct anterior approach (DAA) group. The approach was not associated with an increase in complications, but rather with a decrease in the rate of dislocations and better functional outcomes at 1-year follow-up. Operative time was initially higher with this approach, but equalized during the learning curve. CONCLUSION The DAA can be safe even in the early stages of a novice surgeon's learning curve. It does not present a higher complication rate than the posterior approach, either in infection rate or in periprosthetic fractures. However, the DAA may provide greater functionality, lower dislocation rate and a shorter hospital stay. It can also be concluded that after having performed a certain number of interventions, operative time for the DAA can be comparable to that of other approaches.

Abstract
Background To study the effect of reconstruction of the joint capsule and conjoint tendon on the functional recovery of the hip joint during direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty. Methods A total of 60 patients who underwent their first total hip arthroplasty surgery were selected. According to the set criteria, the selected patients were divided into observation group A (n = 30) and control group B (n = 30). In group A, the joint capsule and conjoint tendon (superior muscle, internal obturator muscle, and inferior muscle) were repaired in situ, while in group B, only the joint capsule was repaired in situ, and the conjoint tendon was not repaired. The surgical indicators, including hip joint function and clinical efficacy of the two groups, were compared. Results After 6 months of follow-up in groups A and B, no dislocation occurred. The Harris Hip scores of group A were higher than those of group B at 1-month post-operation, i.e., p < 0.05, as well as the valid muscle strength and conjoint tendon valid tension, were higher in group A than group B at 1-month postoperative follow-up, i.e., p < 0.05. Conclusion DAA for total hip arthroplasty on the premise of reconstructing the joint capsule structure can rebuild the tension of the conjoint tendon, enhance its muscle strength, and significantly improve the joint stability and function of the patient early stage. It is beneficial for the patient's rapid recovery and is worth implementing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although one of the touted benefits of the direct anterior approach (DAA) includes decreased postoperative pain, there is no consensus on the effect of surgical approach on postoperative pain and subsequent analgesic consumption. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty by a single surgeon from May 2016 to March 2020 were identified. Procedures were categorized as DAA or posterior approach. Patient demographics and surgical details were assessed. Patient-reported maximum pain by postoperative day (POD), total opioid consumption during hospitalization, and whether the patient required a refill of opioid prescription within 3 months after discharge were compared between the two surgical approaches through multivariate analyses. RESULTS A total of 611 patients were included in this study (447 DAA and 164 posterior approaches). On multivariate analyses that controlled for preoperative/intraoperative differences, patients in the DAA group had lower average maximum reported pain (0 to 10 scale) on POD #0 (6.5 versus 6.8, P = 0.034) and POD #1 (5.4 versus 6.1, P = 0.018). However, the DAA was not associated with a statistically significant reduction in total inpatient oral morphine equivalents consumed (79.8 versus 100.1, P = 0.486). Furthermore, there was no association between surgical approach and opioid prescription refill within 3 months after discharge (P = 0.864). DISCUSSION The DAA was associated with slightly lower patient-reported pain. Furthermore, statistical analysis did not provide the necessary evidence to reject the null hypothesis, which was that there would be no difference in opioid utilization between the two approaches. Other perioperative factors may be more important to opioid use reduction than the surgical approach alone.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the early effectiveness of the robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) via direct superior approach (DSA). Methods Between March 2021 and April 2021, 11 patients (11 hips) were treated with a robot-assisted THA via DSA. There were 7 males and 4 females, with an average age of 55 years (range, 26-73 years). There were 5 patients of osteoarthritis secondary to hip dysplasia and 6 patients of osteonecrosis of femoral head. Preoperative hip Harris score was 55.8±6.3. The operation time, volume of blood loss, length of incision, postoperative blood transfusion and hospital stay, and the incidence of surgical complications were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Harris score were used to evaluate hip joint pain and function. The leg length discrepancy (LLD) was measured on the X-ray films. The inclination angle and anteversion angle of the acetabular component were also measured, and the difference between the planned and actual values were compared. Results One THA was performed via conventional posterolateral approach finally because of poor exposure. The rest of 10 THAs were performed with assistance of robotic arm via DSA. The average operation time was 89 minutes (range, 65-120 minutes); the average length of incision was 10.5 cm (range, 9-13 cm); and the average blood loss was 400 mL (range, 110-740 mL). One patient was given a blood transfusion for 2 unit. All incisions healed by first intention and no neurovascular injury, deep vein thrombosis, or fracture occurred. The length of hospital stay after operation was 2-6 days (mean, 4.4 days). The duration of follow-up was 1-3 months (mean, 2.1 months). The VAS score was 0 in 9 patients and 2 in 1 patient at the day of discharge. At last follow-up, the hip Harris score was 84.9±6.7, showing significant difference when compared with that before operation ( t=-8.717, P=0.000). The inclination and anteversion angles were (37.4±2.0)° and (17.1±4.5)°, respectively, and there was no significant difference when compared with the planned values [(38.2±1.6)°, (16.6±3.7)°] ( t=1.809, P=0.104; t=-1.103, P=0.299). The LLD ranged from -2 to 4 mm. No complication such as dislocation, aseptic loosening, or periprosthetic joint infection occurred. Conclusion The robot-assisted THA via DSA has encouraged early effectiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) injury has been widely reported as one of the most common complications of direct anterior approach (DAA) hip arthroplasty. Bikini incision is considered to increase the incidence of this complication. METHODS A prospective randomized study was conducted after including ninety-nine bikini and ninety-six longitudinal incision DAA cases from May to November 2020. The occurrence of LFCN was examined using ultrasound before and after surgery. The recovery of injury symptoms was evaluated by continuous clinical follow-up until six months, and the patients were treated with mecobalamin and/or celecoxib. Sensory conduction velocity and sensory action potential amplitude of the LFCN were measured after surgery in symptomatic patients. RESULTS Eighty five (43.6%), sixty seven (34.4%), and forty three (22.0%) cases of LFCN were of the anterior trunk, posterior trunk, and fan types, respectively, before surgery. All one hundred ninety five patients completed the follow-up period. Fifty-seven patients had symptoms of LFCN injury, including thirty six and twenty one patients in the bikini group and longitudinal group, respectively, with significantly different incidence rates (36.4% and 21.9%, respectively; P < .05). Of these, thirty two (56.1%), thirteen (22.8%), and twelve (21.1%) cases were of the anterior trunk, posterior trunk, and fan types, respectively. Sensory conduction velocity and sensory action potential amplitude significantly decreased after surgery in both groups (P < .05). Seventeen cases showed reduction of symptoms within three months. Forty six cases showed self-recovery within six months and eleven cases showed persistent symptoms at the final follow-up. CONCLUSION Bikini incision DAA hip arthroplasty may increase the incidence of LFCN injury, and the anterior trunk distribution type is most likely to be affected.

J Arthroplasty 2021; 36:3200-3208. [PMID: 33992480 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2021.04.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2020] [Revised: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Purpose of this study was to determine implant survivorship and resultant outcomes, including modes of failure, for metal-on-metal hip resurfacing through the Hueter anterior approach (HAA). METHODS Retrospective review of cases from 2006 to 2015, resulted in 555 metal-on-metal hip resurfacing via HAA, mean age 49.4 ± 6.9 years and mean BMI 28.1 ± 5.3. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to assess implant survivorship. Evaluation of technique was based on radiographic assessment of component position at 6 weeks. Patient-reported outcome measures were assessed using 12-Item Short Form Survey 12, University of California Los Angeles activity, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and hip disability osteoarthritis outcome scores. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 9.18 years, survivorship was 95.0% at 5 years (95% CI: 93.2-96.8 years) and 92.5% at 10 years (95% CI: 90.0-95.0 years); men at 96.1% (95% CI: 94.3-97.9) and 93.8% (95% CI: 91.1-96.5), and women at 88.8% (95% CI: 81.9-95.7) and 85.6% (95% CI: 77.6-93.6), 5 and 10 years, respectively (P = .033). There were 37 revisions to total hips (7%) at a mean time of 3.3 years (SD 2.7). Indications for revision were aseptic loosening of acetabular (n = 12) and femoral component (n = 7) and pseudotumor (n = 6). Radiographic parameters were respectable and consistent, median acetabular inclination angle 41.2° and femoral stem shaft angle 137.7°. Patient-reported outcome measure scores significantly improved and remained stable at 2 and 5 years postoperatively. CONCLUSION Although choice of surgical approach should always be based on surgeon's technical expertise, this study has shown that HAA is safe and effective for hip resurfacing. Mindful attention to long-term metal ion exposure must still be considered.

Pujol O, Soza D, Lara Y, Castellanos S, Hernández A, Barro V. Restoring hip biomechanics during the learning curve of a novice surgeon: Direct anterior approach vs posterior approach. J Orthop 2021; 26:72-78. [PMID: 34349397 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2021.07.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction It remains controversial whether the direct anterior approach (DAA) or the posterior approach (PA) allows better restoration of hip biomechanics after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Besides, it is not certain which approach is best for a novice surgeon to avoid implant malposition, neither during the learning curve nor once the curve plateau has been reached. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of THAs operated on between 2014 and 2019 by a single novice surgeon (DAA, n = 187; PA, n = 184). The surgeon used both approaches, and thus went through parallel learning curves. Results While the DAA presented a greater number of acetabular cup implantations within Lewinnek's "safe zone" for inclination (84.5% vs. 79.3%; p = 0.003), the PA returned superior results for anteversion (77.7% vs. 68.4%; p = 0.000). The PA showed a tendency to verticalize acetabular cups, while the DAA tended to antevert them. The DAA resulted in fewer patients with leg length discrepancy (3.2% vs. 8.2%, p = 0.041). No differences were found in stem coronal alignment or femoral offset. Conclusion Both approaches are safe and reliable for restoring hip biomechanics through THA surgery during the learning curve of a novice hip surgeon. Similar radiological outcomes are also seen once the surgeon has reached the learning curve plateau.

Sun G, Yin Y, Ye Y, Li Q. Risk factors for femoral fracture in lateral decubitus direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty using conventional stems: a retrospective analysis. J Orthop Surg Res 2021; 16:98. [PMID: 33516236 PMCID: PMC7847174 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-021-02253-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2020] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide guidelines for surgery and reduce the incidence of fracture, this study analyzed the relationship between femoral fracture and related factors in direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the lateral decubitus position. METHOD A retrospective series of 273 consecutive patients who underwent THA with the DAA in the lateral decubitus position was analyzed. Each surgery was performed by the same surgeon with a conventional operation bed and femoral stem. The correlations between the incidence of fracture and sex, age, body mass index (BMI), height, osteoporosis, the anterior superior iliac spine-greater trochanter distance (ASIS-GTD), and hip joint disease were analyzed by univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Among all hip arthroplasty procedures, 35 hips had femoral fractures, including 30 greater trochanter fractures, 4 proximal femoral splits, and 1 femoral perforation. The incidence of fracture was 12.82%. Univariate analysis showed no significant difference in the incidence of fracture by sex, BMI, or age. However, osteoporosis caused an increase in the incidence of fracture, while the incidence of fracture decreased as height and the ASIS-GTD increased. The incidence of femoral neck fracture was lower in cases of osteonecrosis of the femoral head than in cases of other diseases. Logistic regression showed a significant correlation between osteoporosis, the ASIS-GTD, and fractures. Patients with osteoporosis had a high possibility of fracture (OR = 2.414); the possibility of fracture decreased with increasing ASIS-GTD (OR = 0.938). CONCLUSION Lateral decubitus DAA THA can be successfully performed using a conventional operation bed and stem, effectively saving medical resources. Osteoporosis and a shorter ASIS-GTD were independent risk factors for femoral fracture.
