Abstract
BACKGROUND Sexual activity is an important component of quality of life. To date, no studies have examined the impact of stem design on return to sexual activity (RTS) and quality of sex life after total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS A questionnaire was designed to assess preoperative and postoperative sexual habits, joint awareness and physical activity in working-age patients undergoing short-stem (n = 176) or straight-stem (n = 97) THA. RESULTS No differences were noted in time until RTS based on the stem design (short stems vs. straight stems; 6 [IQR: 4-10] vs. 6 [4-10] weeks; p = 0.996). Multivariate analysis revealed that higher patient BMI (p = 0.04), female gender (p < 0.001) and lower FJS-12 (p = 0.006) were significantly associated with delayed RTS. Improved hip mobility and reduced pain mainly contribute to improved quality of sexual activity postoperatively. CONCLUSION This study, hence, indicates that stem design has no impact on time until resumption of sexual activity in patients < 65 years. Female obese individuals who are aware of their artificial joint in daily life are at increased risk of delayed RTS after surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective cohort study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The influence of bearing on short-term revision in press-fit total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains under-reported. The aim of this study was to describe 2-year cup revision rates of ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) and ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoPE). PATIENTS AND METHODS Primary press-fit THAs with one of the three most used cups available with both CoC or CoPE bearing recorded in the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (LROI) were included (2007-2019). Primary outcome was 2-year cup revision for all reasons. Secondary outcomes were: reasons for revision, incidence of different revision procedures and use of both bearings over time. RESULTS 2-year Kaplan-Meier cup revision rate in 33,454 THAs (12,535 CoC; 20,919 CoPE) showed a higher rate in CoC (0.67% [95% CI, 0.54-0.81]) compared to CoPE (0.44% [95% CI, 0.34-0.54]) (p = 0.004). Correction for confounders (age, gender, cup type, head size) resulted in a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.64 [95%CI, 0.48-0.87] (p = 0.019). Reasons for cup revision differed only by more cup revision due to loosening in CoC (26.2% vs.1 3.2%) (p = 0.030). For aseptic loosening a revision rate of 0.153% [95% CI, 0.075-0.231] was seen in CoC and 0.058% [95%CI 0.019-0.097] in CoPE (p = 0.007). Correction for head size resulted in a HR of 0.475 [95% CI, 0.197-1.141] (p = 0.096). Incidence of different revision procedures did not differ between bearings. Over time the use of CoPE has increased and CoC decreased. CONCLUSIONS A higher 2-year cup revision rate in press-fit THA was observed in CoC compared to CoPE. Cup loosening was the only significantly different reason for revision and seen more often in CoC and mostly aseptic. Future randomised controlled trials need to confirm causality, since the early cup revision data provided has the potential to be useful when choosing the bearing in press-fit THA, when combined with other factors like bone quality and patient and implant characteristics.

World J Orthop 2022; 13:444-453. [PMID: 35633743 PMCID: PMC9124996 DOI: 10.5312/wjo.v13.i5.444] [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: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Subsidence is one of the concerning early complications in cementless femoral stem. Few publications have studied the influencing factors for subsidence in short cementless stems, due to their metaphyseal anchoring without diaphyseal invasion, they might demonstrate different subsidence patterns than with the conventional stems.
AIM To analyze the factors associated with significant subsidence in short stems, including any radiographic parameters.
METHODS The digitized radiographs of 274 consecutive short stem total hip arthroplasties were retrospectively reviewed. Subsidence, neck-filling ratio (NFR), seating height and lateral stem contact were evaluated after a minimum of two years follow-up. A threshold of subsidence > 3 mm was considered a clinically significant migration.
RESULTS For the entire cohort, subsidence occurred in 75 cases (27.4%) with the mean stem subsidence of 0.5 mm. (0-12.7, 1.68). Twelve hips (4.4%) had significant subsidence (> 3 mm). The univariate regression analysis demonstrated that age, diagnosis, BMI, Dorr’s type B, NFR, and seating height had no significant influence on significant subsidence, whereas insufficient lateral stem contact (≥ 1 mm) did have a statistically significant influence [Odds ratio (OR) = 5.02; 95%CI: 1.3-18.9; P = 0.017]. The multivariate regression analysis also demonstrated that insufficient lateral stem contact was a statistically significant influencing factor (OR = 5.5; 95%CI: 1.4-21.4; P = 0.014). There was no femoral stem revision for aseptic loosening in our cohort.
CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that insufficient lateral stem contact was a statistically significant influencing factor on significant subsidence. Therefore, it is a particularly important step to create proper lateral cortical contact when performing the short stem total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Return to work (RTW) has been specifically identified as a high priority in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). This investigation sought to assess the effect of the stem design on patients' RTW. Secondly, the study aimed to identify risk factors that lead to a delayed RTW. Questionnaires inquiring about RTW, employment history, educational level, type of work, physical demands and joint awareness were administered by post. Further data were collected from patients' hospital records. 176 patients who underwent THA using a short-stem and 97 patients using a straight-stem design were compared. The median return to work time was 10 weeks [IQR 7-14 weeks], with no significant difference between the two groups (short stems vs. straight stems; 10 [IQR 7-14] vs. 11 [7.5-13.5] weeks; p = 0.693). In the multivariate linear regression analysis, self-employment vs. employee (p = 0.001), dimension of preoperative workload (p = 0.001), preoperative sick leave (p < 0.001), and hospital length of stay (LOS) (p < 0.001) independently affected the period until work was resumed. The Forgotten-Joint-Score-12 showed no significant difference between the two groups. The data show that the majority of THA patients can expect to resume work and stem design has no impact on RTW. Employees with preoperative sick leave, prolonged hospital LOS and low workload are at higher risk for a delayed RTW.

Abstract
PURPOSE In press-fit total hip arthroplasty (THA), primary stability is needed to avoid micromotion and hereby aseptic loosening, the main reason for early revision. High aseptic loosening revision rates of the seleXys TH+ cup (Mathys Medical) with Ceramys ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearing are seen in literature. Since CoC is presumed to overcome long-term wear-related revisions, the reason for early failure of this cup is important to clarify. The aim is to investigate its ten year outcomes and differentiate between potential causes and identify risk factors for aseptic loosening. METHODS Retrospective screening of a prospectively documented series of 315 THAs was performed. Primary outcome was cumulative incidence of cup revision due to aseptic loosening. Secondary outcomes were component revision and reoperation. Additionally, potential predictive factors for aseptic loosening were evaluated. RESULTS At the median follow-up of 9.7 years [IQR 4.4; 10.3], 48 TH+ (15.2%) were revised due to aseptic loosening. Competing risk analysis showed a ten year cumulative incidence of cup revision due to aseptic loosening of 15.6% (95% CI 12.0-20.2). Stabilization of early revision rates was observed, following a high rate of respectively 81.3% (n = 39) and 95.8% (n = 46) within the first two and three years. No significant predictive factors for aseptic loosening were found. CONCLUSION The ten year results of seleXys TH+ cup with Ceramys CoC bearing showed an unacceptable high aseptic loosening rate, which stabilized over time after a high early failure incidence. This could be attributed to a problem with osseointegration during the transition of primary to definitive stability.

Abstract
Background and purpose - Short-stem hip arthroplasty has been a viable alternative to standard stems for the treatment of hip osteoarthritis for over 10 years. This study assessed whether a correlation existed between a greater initial increase in implant migration and inferior clinical outcomes at 5 years postoperatively. Results on these patients after 2 years have been published previously.Patients and methods - Radiostereometry and clinical scoring were undertaken after surgery and at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months, and 5 years postoperatively. The migration and the clinical outcomes data from the patients with initial migrations at 3 months above the 75th percentile (≥ 75% group) were compared with those with migrations at 3 months of less than the 75th percentile (< 75% group).Results - Between 3 months and 5 years after surgery, the mean resultant implant migrations were 0.40 mm (SD 0.32) in the ≥ 75% group and 0.39 mm (SD 0.25) in the < 75% group. The mean Harris Hip Scores and SF-36 physical scores at 5 years postoperatively were 100 (SD 0.4) and 44 (SD 12), respectively, for the ≥ 75% group and 99 (SD 2) and 50 (SD 10), respectively, for the < 75% group. The differences between the patient groups were not statistically significant.Interpretation - There was no correlation between a greater initial migration and inferior clinical outcomes at 5 years postoperatively. Despite a greater initial migration, there were no risks of early aseptic loosening and inferior midterm clinical outcomes associated with a short-stem implant with a primary metaphyseal anchorage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a disabling condition that often results in secondary arthritis necessitating total hip arthroplasty (THA). Short-stem THA has constantly gained popularity. It remains controversial, whether ONFH represents a risk factor for failure after the implantation of short stems with pronounced metaphyseal anchorage. The potential spread of the osteonecrotic area and bone marrow edema into the metaphyseal bone might result in compromised stability. Early implant migration is considered predictive of subsequent aseptic loosening. The purpose of this study was a migration analysis of a modern, calcar-guided short-stem implant in patients with ONFH in a mid-term follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective analysis investigated the migration pattern of 45 calcar-guided short stems in patients with ONFH, using Einzel-Bild-Roentgen-Analyse Femoral-Component-Analysis (EBRA-FCA). Influencing factors such as ARCO categories, age, gender, body weight and BMI were analyzed. Complications and adverse events were documented. RESULTS At mid-term [48.1 months (SD 20.7 months)], mean axial migration was 1.56 mm (SD 1.77 mm). Mean migration rate stabilized after 2 years. No influence of ARCO categories, age and BMI was found. A tendency of increased axial migration was observed in male patients and in overweight patients. No revision surgeries had to be performed during follow-up. CONCLUSION The results indicate a migration pattern comparable to that of primary osteoarthritis patients with slight initial migration under full load followed by subsequent stabilization in the metaphyseal femur. The 100% survival rate at mid-term supports the usage of this short-stem design in patients with ONFH.
