BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:884. [PMID: 37957622 PMCID: PMC10644644 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-07014-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The position of the acetabular and femoral components is critical for stability and wear resistance. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the fluoroscopy-guided direct anterior approach in the supine position (S-DAA) is more helpful in improving the position of acetabular and femoral components than the fluoroscopy-guided direct anterior approach in the lateral decubitus position (L-DAA). METHODS A retrospective analysis of 76 cases of fluoroscopy-guided direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty (38 cases in the S-DAA and 38 cases in the L-DAA group) was performed in one hospital from 2019 to 2021. The differences in inclination, anteversion, femoral offset (FO), global offset (GO), and leg length discrepancy (LLD) measurements during and after surgery were analyzed. The postoperative femoral offset (FO), global offset (GO), leg length discrepancy (LLD), and preoperative and postoperative Harris hip score were compared between the two groups. RESULTS In the S-DAA group, there were no significant differences in the mean intraoperative inclination angle anteversion angle, FO, GO, and LLD compared to the postoperative values, whereas in the L-DAA group, there were significant differences between the intraoperative and postoperative measurements (P < 0.001, P = 0.009, P<0.001, P<0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively). Additionally, there were significant differences in the accuracy of LLD, FO, and GO between the two groups (P < 0.001). Compared with the L-DAA group, the average differences of inclination, anteversion, LLD, FO, and GO during and after operation in the S-DAA group were smaller, and the consistency was higher. There was a significant difference in Harris hip score between the two groups at 1 week after surgery (P = 0.033). There was no significant difference in Harris hip score between 1 month and 3 months after surgery (P = 0.482 and P = 0.797, respectively). CONCLUSIONS In the supine group, the direct anterior approach (DAA) provides more accurate positioning of the acetabular and femoral components. However, there was no significant difference in hip joint function and activity between the two groups at follow-up.

[PMID: 37305521 PMCID: PMC10251161 DOI: 10.1515/med-2023-0731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Neuropathy in surgical-related locations has received concerns after total hip arthroplasty (THA), while the contralateral intercostal nerve (ICN) injury has not been reported. A 25-year-old female patient with a body mass index (BMI) of 17.9 kg/m2 visited the orthopedic outpatient clinic with complaints of progressive left hip pain for 20 days. She was diagnosed with left end-stage hip osteoarthritis and developmental dysplasia of the bilateral hips after radiographs and a detailed history-taking. After painstaking consideration, a cementless THA with the standard posterolateral approach was performed under general anesthesia. The procedure was difficult but successful. Unexpectedly, the numbness and slight tingling in the skin of the right breast, lateral chest wall, and axilla cropped up on the first postoperative day. Following the clinical features and the conclusion of the multidisciplinary discussion, we assume that ICN neuropathy is the diagnosis in this case due to compression of the lateral decubitus position during the operation. Her symptoms completely disappeared after using mecobalamin injection (0.5 mg, intramuscular injection, every other day) for 11 days. The Harris left hip score improved from 39 to 94, and the visual analogue scale from 7 was reduced to 2 on the day of discharge. There were no other complications within the first year after the operation. For THA, we should pay attention to some unexpected complications by virtue of the special position, especially in thin and low-BMI people, which suggested that further comprehensive perioperative nursing measures and the beneficial surgical position and anesthesia type were called for.

Abstract
Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) may be performed through various approaches; however, depending on the surgical position of the patient, the superiority of lateral or supine position is still debated. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare the supine versus lateral position in THA in terms of intraoperative and postoperative outcomes and component placement. The systematic literature search was performed by the use of Cochrane Central, Pub-Med-Medline, and Google Scholar in order to select studies that evaluated clinical outcomes and the outliers of cup alignment for inclination and anteversion between supine and lateral position for hip arthroplasty. Finally, 9 articles were included in this review. The meta-analysis showed no significant differences between the two groups for clinical outcomes, unless for blood loss and VAS (respectively p = 0.05 and p = 0.004 in favour of lateral decubitus). Regarding the number of outliers, the supine decubitus showed significant differences only for the cup anteversion (p = 0.01). However, more prospective studies with a longer follow-up that analyze both clinical and radiological parameters are needed to assess the superiority of supine or lateral patient position for total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Background The direct anterior approach (DA) is a recognised approach for performing a total hip replacement (THR). Proponents cite improved recovery times, lower pain levels and improved patient satisfaction in the early post operative period. The procedure can be performed in the supine or lateral position. We wanted to compare the direct anterior approach in lateral decubitus (LD) position and supine (SU) position. Methods Single site, non-randomised, multiple surgeon retrospective cohort study between 2014 and 2021 to compare outcomes, complications and implant position for patients undergoing DAA THR in the SU or LD position. Results A total of 39 patients (22 lateral/17 supine) were identified. Patients had an average follow up of 45 months (17-81). 95% of the cohort were ASA 1 or 2. The majority of cases were uncemented (95%). A greater implant selection was used in the lateral group and the supine group used mainly implants associated with the supine table. No significant differences were found in post operative oxford hip scores, haemoglobin, length of stay, operative time, cup inclination, offset or post operative leg length. There were no recorded intra-operative complications in the LA group and two in the SU group - one calcar fracture and one canal perforation. No patient in either group has undergone a revision procedure. Conclusion Both the supine and lateral position have resulted in satisfactory patient and radiological outcomes. We identified a higher rate of intra-operative fracture in the supine group which is comparable with existing literature. Given the similar outcomes between both groups we would suggest that surgeons wishing to consider the DAA may consider performing this in the lateral position as this will be more familiar to them, they will be able to use their existing implants and do not need a specialised operating table.

ÇATALTEPE A. The length of distal skin incision of the postero-lateral approach affects the cup inclination during the total hip arthroplasty. JOURNAL OF HEALTH SCIENCES AND MEDICINE 2022.

Abstract
Aim: The primary aim of the study was to determine whether the length of the distal skin incision of the posterolateral approach affects the cup inclination during total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Material and Method: In this study, a cohort of 71 consecutive patients who performed between January 2017 and December 2021 with unilateral THA using a posterolateral approach was retrospectively assessed. Two groups were formed according to acetabular cup inclination with normal anteversion angle. There were 56 hips in the inside group and 17 in the outside group. A curvilinear skin incision of around 13 cm was performed. Component position evaluation was carried out through a radiographic assessment of the acetabular component on an anteroposterior pelvis radiograph. The rate of an outlier was compared between groups according to the safe zone defined as 30° to 50° of inclination and 5° to 25° of anteversion, which was described by Lewinnek et al.
Results: No significant difference in the average total incision length was found between the two groups (p=0.207). While the average distal incision length was 7.91±0.62 cm (range, 6.8-9 cm) in the inside group and 6.37±0.21 cm (range, 6-6.7 cm) in the outside group. According to ROC analysis, a patient with ≤6.7 cm of the distal length of incision (DLI) was 5.71 times more likely to be outside than a patient with >6.7 cm of DLI. Seventeen hips (23.3%) were found outside the safe range. Substantial differences were observed regarding radiographic cup inclination between the two groups (p=0.0001). In the inside group, the average cup inclination was 44.11°±3.44° (range, 37°-50°), whereas, in the outside group, it was 55.41°±2.5° (range, 52°-59°). However, there were no significant differences in the average radiographic cup anteversion between the two groups (p=0.960). Although 11 of 17 (64.5%) patients were classified as obese (BMI ≥30) in the outside group experienced higher rates of inaccurate cup orientation, logistic regression analysis showed that the individual effects of obesity on the occurrence of the inaccurate cup position were not observed (p=0.884). One posterior hip dislocation occurred after one month postoperative in the outside group.
Conclusions: Longer distal portion of the skin incision of the posterolateral approach should be performed to achieve optimal operative inclination angles of the acetabular cup during THA. The surgeon must have no hesitation in extending the distal skin incision when adopting the posterolateral approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE The direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be performed with patients in either in the lateral decubitus or supine position. Prompted by the lack of studies addressing differences between the two positions, this investigation aimed to examine clinical and radiographic outcomes and compare the lateral decubitus versus the supine position for THA using the DAA. METHODS Between January 1 and October 1, 2020, 90 patients who underwent primary unilateral THA using the DAA were recruited, with 54 (60%) undergoing THA in the supine position (SP group) and 36 (40%) in the lateral decubitus position (LP group). Technical information, clinical and radiographic outcomes, and patient-reported outcomes, including the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Short-Form-12 (SF-12) were evaluated. All data were subjected to several statistical tests. RESULTS There were no preoperative differences in baseline characteristics between the LP and SP groups, which were also similar in terms of operative duration, length of hospital stay, and blood loss. Radiographic assessment confirmed satisfactory positioning of the prosthesis in both groups. There were no significant differences in terms of CK-MB and hemoglobin levels, Harris Hip Score, WOMAC, UCLA, visual analog scale score, and SF-12. The incidence of complications in the LP group was lower than in the SP group. CONCLUSION Total hip arthroplasty performed via DAA in the LP and SP groups yielded excellent clinical outcomes, although the incidence of complications in the former was lower than in the latter.
