The effect of fixation type on periprosthetic fractures in high-risk patients who have osteoporosis undergoing total joint arthroplasty. J Orthop 2024; 56:26-31. [PMID: 38784945 PMCID: PMC11109352 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2024.05.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Minimizing the burden of periprosthetic fractures (PFF) following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) with regard to morbidity and mortality remains an outcome of interest. Patient and surgical risk factors, including osteoporosis and fixation type, have not truly been optimized in patients undergoing TJA as a means to reduce the risk of PFF. As such, we examined: (1) What percentage of patients who underwent THA and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) met the criteria for osteoporosis screening? (2) How did the 5-year rate of PFF and fragility fracture differ in the high-risk and low-risk groups for osteoporosis between the cemented and cementless cohorts? (3) What percentage of the aforementioned patients received a dual x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan before THA or TKA? Methods We queried an all-payer, national database from April 1, 2016 to December 31, 2021, to identify high-risk and low-risk patients who underwent TJA with a cementless or cemented fixation. High-risk patients met at least one of the following criteria: men at least 70 years old, women at least 65 years old, or patients at least 60 years old who have the following: tobacco use, alcohol abuse, body mass index <18.5, prior fragility fracture, chronic systemic corticosteroids, or genetic condition affecting sex hormones or bone mineral density. Exclusion criteria were a diagnosis of malignancy, high-energy events (motor vehicle collision), those who underwent TJA indicated for fracture, patients less than 50 years old, those who had a prior diagnosis of or treatment for osteoporosis, and a minimum follow-up of less than 2 years. Results There were 384,783 patients (67.1 %) who underwent cementless TKA and 67,774 patients (11.8 %) who underwent cementless TKA who were considered high risk. Additionally, there were 62,505 patients (10.9 %) who underwent cemented THA and 58,667 patients (10.2 %) who underwent cementless THA and were considered high risk. The cementless cohort had a 5-year periprosthetic fracture risk following TKA of 7.8 % (95 % CI, 5.56 to 10.98) in comparison to 4.30 % in the cemented cohort (85 % CI, 3.98 to 4.65), P < 0.0001. The high-risk cementless cohort had a 5-year periprosthetic fracture risk following THA of 7.9 % (95 % confidence interval (CI), 6.87 to 9.19) in comparison to 7.78 % in the cemented cohort (85 % CI, 6.77 to 8.94), P < 0.0001. Conclusion There is an increased risk of PFF at 5 years following TKA in patients at high risk for osteoporosis undergoing cementless fixation in comparison to cemented fixation. There is an increased risk of PFF at 5 years following THA in patients at high risk for osteoporosis for both cementless fixation and cemented fixation, but no clinically meaningful difference between the two groups. Addressing the shortcomings of the underutilization of bone density scans and better selecting appropriate patients for TJA based on bone quality and fracture risk can help expedite the process of improving the current state of practice.

Abstract
This report provides an updated analysis for patients with osteoporosis following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The comorbidities of alcohol abuse, chronic kidney disease, cerebrovascular disease, obesity, and rheumatoid arthritis continue to be significant risk factors for periprosthetic femur fracture (PPFFx) and aseptic loosening in the population with osteoporosis. Patients with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometric (DEXA) scans were at risk for PPFFx regardless of femoral fixation method, and patients with DEXA scans with cementless fixation were at risk of aseptic loosening after THA. The patient population with severe osteoporosis may have higher risks for aseptic loosening and PPFFx than previously recognized.

Abstract
Aims Periprosthetic fracture and implant loosening are two of the major reasons for revision surgery of cementless implants. Optimal implant fixation with minimal bone damage is challenging in this procedure. This pilot study investigates whether vibratory implant insertion is gentler compared to consecutive single blows for acetabular component implantation in a surrogate polyurethane (PU) model. Methods Acetabular components (cups) were implanted into 1 mm nominal under-sized cavities in PU foams (15 and 30 per cubic foot (PCF)) using a vibratory implant insertion device and an automated impaction device for single blows. The impaction force, remaining polar gap, and lever-out moment were measured and compared between the impaction methods. Results Impaction force was reduced by 89% and 53% for vibratory insertion in 15 and 30 PCF foams, respectively. Both methods positioned the component with polar gaps under 2 mm in 15 PCF foam. However, in 30 PCF foam, the vibratory insertion resulted in a clinically undesirable polar gap of over 2 mm. A higher lever-out moment was achieved with the consecutive single blow insertion by 42% in 15 PCF and 2.7 times higher in 30 PCF foam. Conclusion Vibratory implant insertion may lower periprosthetic fracture risk by reducing impaction forces, particularly in low-quality bone. Achieving implant seating using vibratory insertion requires adjustment of the nominal press-fit, especially in denser bone. Further preclinical testing on real bone tissue is necessary to assess whether its viscoelasticity in combination with an adjusted press-fit can compensate for the reduced primary stability after vibratory insertion observed in this study.

Abstract
Background: Total hip arthroplasty is one of the most successful orthopedic surgeries; nevertheless, many of these surgeries are the causes of failure, and among them, periprosthetic fractures are one of the major causes of revision. Our study focuses on periprosthetic hip fractures with two different stem designs. The aim of the study was to analyze the obtained results, focusing on the features of periprosthetic stem fractures observed. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed periprosthetic fractures occurring between 2010 and 2023, involving Alloclassic® or CLS® uncemented femoral stems. We analyzed demographic data, proximal femur morphology, and the fracture type. Results: We identified 97 patients. Considering the proximal femur morphology, we found that there was statistically significant prevalence of Dorr A proximal femur morphology in the CLS® group and of Dorr C in the Alloclassic® group. Considering the distribution of the fracture pattern, we reported a non-statistically significant prevalence of the fracture pattern with stable stems in the CLS® group. Conclusions: The choice of the prosthetic design of the femoral stem is a crucial element when planning total hip arthroplasty. However, we found a non-statistically significant difference between the two stems considered, raising questions about the real role of stem design as a primary determinant of periprosthetic hip fractures.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cement usage in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasingly common. However, osteoporosis-related fracture risk in cemented vs uncemented THA patients is poorly characterized. We aim to analyze the usage of metabolic bone care and osteoporosis fracture risk in cemented vs uncemented THA patients using FRAX and radiographic bone measurements. METHODS Chart review on 250 THA patients was performed retrospectively. Demographics, FRAX scores, hip radiograph measurements, osteoporosis diagnosis, treatment and screening were compared between cemented and uncemented THA patients. Logistic regression model was used to analyze factors influencing cement usage. RESULTS Cemented THA patients have significantly higher osteoporosis-related fracture risk as measured by FRAX major (20% vs 13%) and FRAX hip (8% vs 5%). There is no significant difference in osteoporosis treatment, vitamin D / calcium supplementation, or metabolic bone disease screening based on patients' cement status. Female sex and rheumatoid arthritis status significantly predict cement usage, but FRAX scores do not predict cement usage. Additionally, 50% (10/20) of patients with Dorr C classification were uncemented. CONCLUSION Although some patients undergoing THA with high osteoporosis-related fracture risk were identified and cemented, some risk factors including poor proximal femur shape (by Dorr classification) and poor bone quality (as measured by FRAX score) were potentially overlooked. Cemented patients had an increased risk for fractures but did not receive appropriately increased osteoporosis screening or treatment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
Purpose We prospectively evaluate the short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of the only Chinese domestically produced trabecular titanium acetabular cup(3D ACT™ cup) in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), aiming to provide evidence-based support for its clinical application. Methods A total of 236 patients, who underwent primary THA using 3D ACT™ cup in the Department of Joint Surgery at our hospital between January 2017 and June 2019, were included in this study. General patient data, imaging information, functional scores, and complications were collected to evaluate the early clinical efficacy. Results All patients were followed up for 33-52 months, with an average of (42.2 ± 9.2) months. At the last follow-up, the preoperative HHS score increased significantly from 43.7 ± 6.8 to 85.6 ± 9.3 points (P < 0.01). Similarly, the preoperative WOMAC scores showed significant improvement from 59.2 ± 5.8 to 13.1 ± 3.5 points (P < 0.01). 92.3% of the patients expressed satisfaction or high satisfaction with the clinical outcome. Furthermore, 87.7% of the acetabular cups were positioned within the Lewinnek safe zone, achieving successful reconstruction of the acetabular rotation center. The cup survival rate at the last follow-up was 100%. Conclusions The utilization of the only Chinese domestically manufactured 3D printing trabecular titanium acetabular cup in primary THA demonstrated favorable short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. The acetabular cup exhibits excellent initial stability, high survival rate, and favorable osseointegration, leading to a significant enhancement in pain relief and functional improvement. In the future, larger sample sizes and multicenter prospective randomized controlled trials will be required to validate the long-term safety and effectiveness of this 3D ACT™ cup.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is common among patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bisphosphonate treatment on osteoporotic patients undergoing primary THA. METHODS Using a national database, 30,137 patients who had osteoporosis before primary elective THA were identified during 2010 to 2020. Patients undergoing nonelective THA and those using corticosteroids or other medications for osteoporosis were excluded. Bisphosphonate users and bisphosphonate naïve patients were matched 1:1 based on age, sex, Elixhauser comorbidity index, and a history of obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, tobacco use, and alcohol abuse. Kaplan-Meier and multivariate analyses were used to compare 2-year outcomes between groups. RESULTS Among matched cohorts of 9,844 patients undergoing primary THA, bisphosphonate use was associated with a significantly higher 2-year rate of periprosthetic fracture (odds ratio 1.29, 95% confidence interval 1.04 to 1.61, P = .022). There was a trend toward increased risk of any revision with bisphosphonate use (odds ratio 1.19, confidence interval 1.00 to 1.41, P = .056). Rates of infection, aseptic loosening, dislocation, and mortality were not statistically different between bisphosphonate users and bisphosphonate-naïve patients. CONCLUSION In osteoporotic patients, bisphosphonate use before primary THA is an independent risk factor for periprosthetic fracture. Additional longer-term data are needed to determine the underlying mechanism for this association and identify preventative measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a prevalent orthopedic issue, leading to the collapse and fragmentation of the femoral head in its advanced stages, which can severely impair patients' quality of life. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a clinical intervention frequently used to alleviate ONFH symptoms and reinstate hip functionality. The conventional surgical technique is invasive and comes with an extended recuperation period, posing significant challenges for patients. With the progression of medical technology, the use of the mini-incision technique in minimally invasive THA (MITHA) has become more prevalent. However, comparative studies examining the effectiveness of these two surgical procedures in treating ONFH remain scarce. Furthermore, understanding patients' psychological well-being is crucial given its profound influence on postoperative recuperation. AIM To evaluate the impact of mini-incision MITHA on ONFH treatment and to identify the risk factors associated with postoperative anxiety and depression. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 125 patients treated for ONFH at Xi'an Hong Hui Hospital between February 2020 and January 2022, with the term "consecutive" indicating that these patients were treated in an unbroken sequence without any selection. Among these, 60 patients (control group) underwent traditional THA, while 65 patients (observation group) were treated with mini-incision MITHA. Variations in the visual analog scale (VAS) score and the Harris hip score were monitored. Additionally, shifts in pre- and posttreatment Hamilton anxiety (HAMA) and Hamilton depression (HAMD) scale scores were recorded. Patients with both postoperative HAMA and HAMD scores of ≥ 8 were identified as those experiencing negative emotions. Logistic regression was utilized to analyze the determinants influencing these negative emotional outcomes. Comparative analyses of surgical and postoperative metrics between the two groups were also conducted. RESULTS Posttreatment results indicated a significantly higher VAS score in the control group than in the observation group, while the Harris score was considerably lower (P < 0.0001). The observation group benefited from a notably shorter operation duration, reduced blood loss, diminished incision size, and a decreased postoperative drainage time (P < 0.0001), accompanied by a reduced hospital stay and lower treatment costs (P < 0.0001). The control group had elevated posttreatment HAMA and HAMD scores in comparison to the observation group (P < 0.0001). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that being female [odds ratio (OR): 4.394, 95%CI: 1.689-11.433, P = 0.002], having a higher postoperative VAS score (OR: 5.533, 95%CI: 2.210-13.848, P < 0.0001), and having higher treatment costs (OR: 7.306, 95%CI: 2.801-19.057, P < 0.0001) were significant independent determinants influencing postoperative mood disturbances. CONCLUSION Compared to conventional THA, mini-incision MITHA offers advantages such as reduced operation time, minimal bleeding, and a shorter incision in ONFH patients. Moreover, factors such as sex, postoperative pain (reflected in the VAS score), and treatment costs significantly impact postoperative anxiety and depression.

Abstract
AIM Fondaparinux is a synthetic anticoagulant that inhibits thrombosis by suppressing factor Xa. The efficacy of fondaparinux for orthopedic surgeries has been revealed by several foreign studies; however, relevant evidence in Chinese patients is lacking. This study intended to investigate the occurrence rate and risk factors of in-hospital venous thromboembolism (VTE), major bleeding, and death in patients receiving fondaparinux after orthopedic surgery or trauma surgery. METHODS Totally, 1258 patients who received fondaparinux after orthopedic surgery or trauma surgery were retrospectively enrolled. Meanwhile, in-hospital VTE, major bleeding, and death were obtained for assessment. Besides, adverse events were recorded. RESULTS The occurrence rates of in-hospital VTE, major bleeding, and death were 2.5%, 21.8%, and 0.0%, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only age (> 60 years vs. ≤ 60 years) (odd ratios (OR) = 3.380, P = 0.013) was independently correlated with increased risk of in-hospital VTE. Additionally, osteoarthritis diagnosis (OR = 3.826, P < 0.001), femoral head necrosis diagnosis (OR = 1.809, P = 0.034), hip replacement (vs. internal fracture fixation) (OR = 2.199, P = 0.007), knee replacement (vs. internal fracture fixation) (OR = 2.781, P = 0.002), and serum creatinine (abnormal vs. normal) (OR = 1.677, P = 0.012) were independently linked to a higher risk of in-hospital major bleeding. Moreover, the common adverse events included pain (56.6%), wound bleeding (23.0%), increased drainage (5.2%), etc. CONCLUSION: Fondaparinux realizes low occurrence rates of in-hospital VTE and major bleeding with tolerable adverse events in patients receiving orthopedic surgery or trauma surgery.

Abstract
The most prevalent metabolic bone disease, osteoporosis, is characterized by a decrease in bone mineral density and alterations to the bone's microstructure, both of which can result in fragility fractures. It affects a significant section of the population. Acute or chronic pain from these fractures is typical in elderly adults with other coexisting conditions. Since the antiresorptive medication only partially reduces pain, other analgesics are required for effective pain management. NSAIDs or selective COX-2 inhibitors can reduce acute pain, but persistent neuropathic pain is difficult to manage with these drugs. Opioids have their adverse effects and safety concerns, although they can be used to address acute or chronic pain. Hence, a multifaceted approach is to be implemented, including pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapy and surgical treatment in a selected number of cases. This chapter briefly describes the etiology of pain, its mechanism, and pain management in osteoporotic patients.

World J Orthop 2023; 14:682-689. [PMID: 37744721 PMCID: PMC10514715 DOI: 10.5312/wjo.v14.i9.682] [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: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty is a common surgical treatment for elderly patients with osteoporosis, particularly in postmenopausal women. In such cases, highly porous acetabular components are a favorable option in achieving osseointegration. However, further discussion is needed if use of such acetabular components is justified under the condition of normal bone mass. AIM To determine the features of osseointegration of two different types of titanium implants [3-dimensional (3D)-printed and plasma-coated titanium implants] in bone tissue of a distal metaphysis in a rat femur model. METHODS This study was performed on 20 white male laboratory rats weighing 300-350 g aged 6 mo. Rats were divided into two groups of 10 animals, which had two different types of implants were inserted into a hole defect (2 × 3 mm) in the distal metaphysis of the femur: Group I: 3D-printed titanium implant (highly porous); Group II: Plasma-coated titanium implant. After 45 and 90 d following surgery, the rats were sacrificed, and their implanted femurs were extracted for histological examination. The relative perimeter (%) of bone trabeculae [bone-implant contact (BIC%)] and bone marrow surrounding the titanium implants was measured. RESULTS Trabecular bone tissue was formed on the 45th day after implantation around the implants regardless of their type. 45 d after surgery, group I (3D-printed titanium implant) and group II (plasma-coated titanium implant) did not differ in BIC% (83.51 ± 8.5 vs 84.12 ± 1 .73; P = 0.838). After 90 d, the BIC% was higher in group I (87.04 ± 6.99 vs 81.24 ± 7.62; P = 0.049), compared to group II. The relative perimeter of the bone marrow after 45 d did not differ between groups and was 16.49% ± 8.58% for group I, and 15.88% ± 1.73% for group II. Futhermore, after 90 d, in group I the relative perimeter of bone marrow was 1.4 times smaller (12.96 ± 6.99 vs 18.76 ± 7.62; P = 0.049) compared to the relative perimeter of bone marrow in group II. CONCLUSION The use of a highly porous titanium implant, manufactured with 3D printing, for acetabular components provides increased osseointegration compared to a plasma-coated titanium implant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Condyle-spanning plate-screw constructs have shown potential to lower the risks of femoral refractures after the healing of a primary Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fracture. Limited information exists to show how osteoporosis (a risk factor for periprosthetic femoral fractures) may affect the plate fixation during activities of daily living. METHODS Using total hip arthroplasty and plate-implanted finite element models of three osteoporotic femurs, this study simulated physiological loads of three activities of daily living, as well as osteoporosis associated muscle weakening, and compared the calculated stress/strain, load transfer and local stiffness with experimentally validated models of three healthy femurs. Two plating systems and two construct lengths (a diaphyseal construct and a condyle-spanning construct) were modeled. FINDINGS Osteoporotic femurs showed higher bone strain (21.9%) and higher peak plate stress (144.3%) as compared with healthy femurs. Compared with shorter diaphyseal constructs, condyle-spanning constructs of two plating systems reduced bone strains in both healthy and osteoporotic femurs (both applying 'the normal' and 'the weakened muscle forces') around the most distal diaphyseal screw and in the distal metaphysis, both locations where secondary fractures are typically reported. The lowered resultant compressive force and the increased local compressive stiffness in the distal diaphysis and metaphysis may be associated with strain reductions via condyle-spanning constructs. INTERPRETATION Strain reductions in condyle-spanning constructs agreed with the clinically reported lowered risks of femoral refractures in the distal diaphysis and metaphysis. Multiple condylar screws may mitigate the concentrated strains in the lateral condyle, especially in osteoporotic femurs.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of MAKO robotic-arm assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) via direct anterior approach (DAA) for bony fused hips in ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods Between June 2021 and January 2022, MAKO robotic-arm assisted THA via DAA was applied to treat 10 cases (12 hips) of AS with bony fused hips. There were 7 males and 3 females; the age ranged from 30 to 71 years, with an average age of 42.4 years. The duration of AS was 12-35 years, with an average of 21.4 years. The preoperative hip was ankylosed in flexion in 3 cases, with a flexion angle of 20°, 30°, 35°, respectively; 9 cases were ankylosed in extension. The operation time and complications were recorded; the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Harris score, and Oxford hip scale (OHS) score before and after operation, and postoperative range of motion (flexion, extension, internal rotation, external rotation, adduction, and abduction) were used to evaluate the recovery of joint function; according to the postoperative anteroposterior X-ray film and CT scan of both hip joints, the abduction angle, anteversion angle, the difference between bilateral combined off-set and the lower limb length discrepancy were measured. Results The operation time ranged from 80 to 190 minutes (mean, 134.6 minutes). All 10 patients were followed up 5-11 months (mean, 7.4 months). There was no serious adverse events such as incision infection, deep vein thrombosis of lower extremities, hip redislocation, aseptic loosening of the prosthesis, or death. At 5 months after operation, the acetabular prosthesis angle of abduction was 37°-45° (mean, 40.3°), anteversion angle was 9°-20° (mean, 15.8°). The difference between bilateral combined off-set was 0-10 mm (mean, 4.3 mm); the lower limb length discrepancy was 0-12 mm (mean, 3.5 mm). At last follow-up, the average range of motion of the hip joint was 89.2° in flexion (range, 80°-100°), 1.7° in extension (range, -5°-10°), 7.1° in internal rotation (range, 0°-15°), 20.4° in external rotation (range, 10°-30°), 7.9° in adduction (range, 0°-20°), and 16.5° in abduction (range, 10°-25°). At last follow-up, the VAS score, Harris score, and OHS score significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion The MAKO robotic-arm assisted THA via DAA can achieve satisfactory results in the treatment of AS with bony fused hip, which has the advantages of accurate prosthesis installation, soft tissue release, and less trauma during operation.

Reduced Awareness for Osteoporosis in Hip Fracture Patients Compared to Elderly Patients Undergoing Elective Hip Replacement. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2022; 58:medicina58111564. [PMID: 36363521 PMCID: PMC9696469 DOI: 10.3390/medicina58111564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Background: Osteoporotic fractures are associated with a loss of quality of life, but only few patients receive an appropriate therapy. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the awareness of musculoskeletal patients to participate in osteoporosis assessment and to evaluate whether there are significant differences between acute care patients treated for major fractures of the hip compared to elective patients treated for hip joint replacement.; Methods: From May 2015 to December 2016 patients who were undergoing surgical treatment for proximal femur fracture or total hip replacement due to osteoarthritis and were at risk for an underlying osteoporosis (female > 60 and male > 70 years) were included in the study and asked to complete a questionnaire assessing the awareness for an underlying osteoporosis. ASA Score, FRAX Score, and demographic information have also been examined. Results: In total 268 patients (female = 194 (72.0%)/male = 74 (28%)), mean age 77.7 years (±7.7) undergoing hip surgery were included. Of these, 118 were treated for fracture-related etiology and 150 underwent total hip arthroplasty in an elective care setting. Patients were interviewed about their need for osteoporosis examination during hospitalization. Overall, 76 of 150 patients receiving elective care (50.7%) considered that an examination was necessary, whereas in proximal femur fracture patients the awareness was lower, and the disease osteoporosis was assessed as threatening by significantly fewer newly fractured patients. By comparison, patients undergoing trauma surgery had a considerably greater risk of developing another osteoporotic fracture than patients undergoing elective surgery determined by the FRAX® Score (p ≤ 0.001).; Conclusions: The patients’ motivation to endure additional osteoporosis diagnostic testing is notoriously low and needs to be increased. Patients who underwent acute care surgery for a fragility proximal femur fracture, although acutely affected by the potential consequences of underlying osteoporosis, showed lower awareness than the elective comparison population that was also on average 6.1 years younger. Although elective patients were younger and at a lower risk, they seemed to be much more willing to undergo further osteoporosis assessment. In order to better identify and care for patients at risk, interventions such as effective screening, early initiation of osteoporosis therapy in the inpatient setting and a fracture liaison service are important measures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Extended inpatient rehabilitation (PT) after total hip (THA) and knee arthroplasty (TKA) has a significant impact on total care costs. As patients age, extended PT might be required following THA and TKA. This study examined the relationship between patient age, functional mobility, inpatient PT need, and discharge disposition in THA and TKA patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included patients aged 60 + undergoing primary THA or TKA between 2018 and 2020 at an orthopedic hospital. Comparing by age-decade, 7374 (3600 THA, 3774 TKA) sexagenarians, 5350 (2367 THA, 2983 TKA) septuagenarians, 1356 (652 THA, 704 TKA) octogenarians, and 78 (52 THA, 26 TKA) nonagenarians were analyzed. We compared the number of PT sessions needed for discharge clearance and the postoperative functional mobility using the Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AM-PAC) tool. Statistical analyses included ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey's HSD for continuous data and Chi-squared test for categorical variables. RESULTS The number of PT sessions required for discharge clearance increased with age after THA (3.3 ± 1.9 sessions vs 3.8 ± 2.1 vs 5.0 ± 2.7 vs 6.2 ± 3.0; p < 0.01) and TKA (4.0 ± 2.1 vs 4.7 ± 3.1 vs 5.2 ± 2.8 vs 5.0 ± 1.6; p < 0.01). The functional mobility improvement as measured by AM-PAC was significantly lower for nonagenarians after THA (4.9 ± 2.8 vs 5.1 ± 2.8 vs 4.6 ± 3.3 vs 3.3 ± 3.9; p < 0.01) and TKA (5.0 ± 2.9 vs 4.7 ± 3.2 vs 3.9 ± 3.4 vs 3.2 ± 2.6; p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Patients in their eighth and ninth decade had less improvement in functional mobility during in-hospital rehabilitation and utilized more PT services. However, clinical results in the elderly are still satisfying and the data may be helpful for resource utilization planning and risk-adjustment in value-based payment models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bone diseases in the total joint arthroplasty (TJA) population are undertested and undertreated, leading to increased risk of adverse outcomes such as periprosthetic fractures. This study aims to better characterize the current state of bone care in TJA patients using Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) score risk stratifications. METHODS In total, 505 consecutive TJA patients who meet the Endocrine Society guidelines for osteoporosis screening were included for review. They were divided into a high risk or low risk group depending on FRAX scores and were compared based on screening, diagnosis, and treatment of metabolic bone disease. Logistic regression models were used to analyze factors influencing screening and treatment. A population analysis involving 2,000 TJA patients, and a complication analysis involving 40 periprosthetic fracture patients were conducted. RESULTS Among high risk patients undergoing TJA, 90% did not receive any pharmacological treatment for osteoporosis, 45% were not treated with vitamin D or calcium, and 88% did not receive bone density testing in the routine care period. Among patients with pre-existing osteoporosis undergoing TJA, 80% were not treated with any osteoporosis medications and 33% of these patients were not taking vitamin D or calcium. Female gender and past fracture history contributed to whether patients received screening and treatment. Patients with periprosthetic hip fractures have significantly higher FRAX scores compared to control THA patients. CONCLUSION There are significant gaps in metabolic bone care of the geriatric TJA population regarding both screening and treatment. Metabolic bone care and risk identification with FRAX should be highly considered for TJA patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To assess the bone remodeling around highly porous titanium cups TTM in patients with low bone mass one year after total hip arthroplasty (THA). PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: In this prospective study were included 18 patients (18 hips), whom was performed primary THA with the use of TTM cups. According to T-score of Lumbar Spine, patients were divided into 2 groups: normal bone mineral density (BMD) (n=9) if T-score ≥ -1, and low BMD (n=9) if T-score < -1. According to DeLee and Charnley's model BMD in 3 periacetabular regions were evaluated 1 week and 1 year after THA. RESULTS Results: One year after primary THA, BMD of all 3 periacetabular regions did not differ in patients of both groups comparing with initial data. One week after THA, it was found that BMD R1 and BMD R3 in low BMD group were lower by 1.4 times (p=0.035) and 1.5 times (р=0.001) respectively, BMD R2 did not differ from the normal BMD group. One year after THA it was found that in low BMD group BMD R1 and BMD R2 were lower by 1.5 times (р=0.005) and 1.3 times (р=0.050) respectively, BMD R3 did not differ from the group with normal BMD. CONCLUSION Conclusions: The use of highly porous titanium cups TTM in patients with low bone mass did not lead to a bone loss in DeLee and Charnley periacetabular zones one year after THA. Consequently, the use of these cups in patients with low bone mass undergoing THA is a valuable treatment option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) done in the aging population is associated with osteoporosis-related complications. The altered bone density in osteoporotic patients is a risk factor for revision surgery. This study aimed to develop and validate machine learning (ML) models to predict revision surgery in patients with osteoporosis after primary noncemented THA. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of 350 patients with osteoporosis (T-score less than or equal to -2.5) who underwent primary noncemented THA at a tertiary referral center. All patients had a minimum 2-year follow-up (range: 2.1 to 5.6). Four ML algorithms were developed to predict the probability of revision surgery, and these were assessed by discrimination, calibration, and decision curve analysis. RESULTS The overall incidence of revision surgery was 5.2% at a mean follow-up of 3.7 years after primary noncemented THA in osteoporotic patients. Revision THA was done because of periprosthetic fracture in nine patients (50%), aseptic loosening/subsidence in five patients (28%), periprosthetic joint infection in two patients (11%) and dislocation in two patients (11%). The strongest predictors for revision surgery in patients after primary noncemented THA were female sex, BMI (>35 kg/m2), age (>70 years), American Society of Anesthesiology score (≥3), and T-score. All four ML models demonstrated good model performance across discrimination (AUC range: 0.78 to 0.81), calibration, and decision curve analysis. CONCLUSION The ML models presented in this study demonstrated high accuracy for the prediction of revision surgery in osteoporotic patients after primary noncemented THA. The presented ML models have the potential to be used by orthopaedic surgeons for preoperative patient counseling and optimization to improve the outcomes of primary noncemented THA in osteoporotic patients.

[PMID: 35510068 PMCID: PMC9059077 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2021.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The association between regional bone status around the acetabulum and the incidence of intraoperative acetabulum fractures has not been extensively studied. We investigated the association of Hounsfield unit (HU) values on computed tomography in the regions of the acetabulum with periprosthetic fractures. Methods We retrospectively reviewed records of 301 consecutive patients who underwent cementless total hip arthroplasty between October 2016 and December 2020. Using preoperative computed tomography taken in the 4 weeks preceding total hip arthroplasty, we measured HU values in 4 different acetabulum regions (anterior, medial, posterior, and superior). After identifying fracture cases, we identified a control group—matched in terms of sex, age, and preoperative diagnosis—selected in a 1:3 ratio among nonfracture patients treated in the same inclusive period. As the average HU values differed by region, we used the standardized value to compare fracture-site HUs. We ranked the standardized HU values for each acetabular site and compared the fracture site rank between the groups. Results Intraoperative acetabular fractures were observed in 10 hips (3.2%), occurring most frequently in the superior region (40%). The standardized HU values of the fracture site were statistically lower in the fracture group (P = .039). We compared the ranks of the standardized HUs of the fractured parts with those of the corresponding parts in the control group; the fracture site had a significantly lower standardized HU rank, indicating that fractures tended to occur in the relatively “weaker-than-expected” parts. Conclusions Periprosthetic fractures tended to occur at relatively weak parts of the acetabulum.

Long-Term Survivorship of Modular Cementless Femoral Stem in Complex Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Concise Minimum 15-Year Follow-Up Report. J Arthroplasty 2021; 36:3221-3225. [PMID: 34090692 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2021.05.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2021] [Revised: 04/18/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND S-ROM hip is a well-established and versatile prosthesis that offers extensive metaphyseal and diaphyseal geometries providing solutions for a variety of surgical scenarios. The aim of this study is to report on long-term survivorship and radiographic outcomes of complex primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a modular cementless stem (S-ROM). METHODS Retrospective consecutive study was conducted of 167 patients (167 hips): 97 males and 70 females with average age at the time of surgery of 55 years (range 22-76). All patients underwent complex THA by the senior author from 1987 to 1999. Patients were identified using a prospective database. Demographic, clinical, and surgical data were collected from health records. All patients received a cementless acetabular component with a standard polyethylene liner. The primary outcome measure was survivorship beyond 15 years using stem revision for any cause as an end point. Secondary outcome measure was rate of radiographic loosening using Engh classification. RESULTS Only 3 patients required stem revision for aseptic loosening and 1 for periprosthetic fracture. Isolated acetabular revision was undertaken in 23 of 167 patients (13.8%) due to polythene wear, osteolysis, and aseptic loosening. Proximal femoral stress shielding (zone 1, 7) was noted in 34 of 167 hips (20.4%). Stable bony ingrowth was noted in 144 hips (86.2%) and the remaining 23 hips had stable fibrous ingrowth (13.8%). Using stem "any-cause revision" as an endpoint, the mean stem survivorship was 31.5 years (95% confidence interval 31.007-31.985) with 30-year estimated survivorship of 97.6%. CONCLUSION In a single designer surgeon series, S-ROM stem has stood the test of time with long-term, 30-year survivorship of 97.6% and continues to play an important role in modern hip surgery providing longevity and versatility. However, further comparative long-term studies from independent centers are needed for a definitive conclusion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Arthroplast Today 2021; 11:41-48. [PMID: 34458533 PMCID: PMC8379644 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2021.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/19/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The impact of prior fragility fractures and osteoporosis treatment before total hip arthroplasty (THA) on postoperative complications is unclear. The purpose of this study was to characterize the effect of prior fragility fractures and preoperative osteoporosis treatment on short-term complications and secondary fragility fractures after THA. Methods A propensity score–matched retrospective cohort study was conducted using a commercially available database to (1) characterize the impact of prior fragility fractures on rates of short-term complications after THA and (2) evaluate if osteoporosis treatment before arthroplasty reduces risk of postoperative complications. Rates of periprosthetic fracture, revision THA, and fragility fractures were compared via multivariable logistic regression. Results After 1:1 propensity score matching, 2188 patients were assigned to each cohort. Patients with a fragility fracture in the 3 years preceding THA were more likely to sustain a periprosthetic fracture (1 year: 1.7% vs 1.0%, odds ratio [OR] 1.89; 2 years: 2.1% vs 1.1%, OR 1.82), fragility fracture (1 year: 4.7% vs 1.1%, OR 3.59; 2 years: 6.7% vs 1.7%, OR 3.21), and revision THA (1 year: 2.7% vs 1.7%, OR 1.65; 2 years: 3.1% vs 1.9%, OR 1.58). Among patients with a prior fragility fracture, only 13.8% received osteoporosis pharmacotherapy before THA. Rates of all complications were statistically comparable postoperatively for patients with and without pre-THA osteoporosis treatment. Conclusions Fragility fractures within 3 years before THA are associated with significantly increased risk of periprosthetic fracture, all-cause revision, and secondary fragility fractures postoperatively. Preoperative osteoporosis treatment may not decrease risk of postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigates whether three-dimensional (3D) printing-assisted revision total hip/knee arthroplasty could improve its clinical and radiological outcomes and assess the depth and breadth of research conducted on 3D printing-assisted revision total hip and knee arthroplasty. METHODS A literature search was carried out on PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. Only studies that investigated 3D printing-assisted revision total hip and knee arthroplasty were included. The author, publication year, study design, number of patients, patients' age, the time of follow-up, surgery category, Coleman score, clinical outcomes measured, clinical outcomes conclusion, radiological outcomes measured, and radiological outcomes conclusion were extracted and analyzed. RESULTS Ten articles were included in our review. Three articles investigated the outcome of revision total knee arthroplasty, and seven investigated the outcome of revision total hip arthroplasty. Two papers compared a 3D printing group with a control group, and the other eight reported 3D printing treatment outcomes alone. Nine articles investigated the clinical outcomes of total hip/knee arthroplasty, and eight studied the radiological outcomes of total hip/knee arthroplasty. CONCLUSION 3D printing is being introduced in revision total hip and knee arthroplasty. Current literature suggests satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes could be obtained with the assistance of 3D printing. Further long-term follow-up studies are required, particularly focusing on cost-benefit analysis, resource availability, and, importantly, the durability and biomechanics of customized prostheses using 3D printing compared to traditional techniques.

Abstract
➤ As a result of the advances in surgical technique and implant design, total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasingly offered for the management of osteoarthritis of the hip in patients with fragile or pathologic bone. ➤ Posttraumatic or congenital deformities associated with fragile or pathologic bone are frequently encountered and necessitate diligent preoperative planning. ➤ Surgeons should be prepared to evaluate and manage intraoperative iatrogenic fracture. ➤ While there is limited evidence to date, components made with computer-assisted design can be considered, given the unique and highly variable patient population.

Osseointegration of porous titanium and tantalum implants in ovariectomized rabbits: A biomechanical study. World J Orthop 2021; 12:214-222. [PMID: 33959485 PMCID: PMC8082506 DOI: 10.5312/wjo.v12.i4.214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Revised: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Today, biological fixation of uncemented press-fit acetabular components plays an important role in total hip arthroplasty. Long-term stable fixation of these implants depends on the osseointegration of the acetabular cup bone tissue into the acetabular cup implant, and their ability to withstand functional loads.
AIM To compare the strength of bone-implant osseointegration of four types of porous metal implants in normal and osteoporotic bone in rabbits.
METHODS The study was performed in 50 female California rabbits divided into non-ovariectomized (non-OVX) and ovariectomized groups (OVX) at 6 mo of age. Rabbits were sacrificed 8 wk after the implantation of four biomaterials [TTM, CONCELOC, Zimmer Biomet's Trabecular Metal (TANTALUM), and ATLANT] in a 5-mm diameter defect created in the left femur. A biomechanical evaluation of the femur was carried out by testing implant breakout force. The force was gradually increased until complete detachment of the implant from the bone occurred.
RESULTS The breakout force needed for implant detachment was significantly higher in the non-OVX group, compared with the OVX group for all implants (TANTALUM, 194.7 ± 6.1 N vs 181.3 ± 2.8 N; P = 0.005; CONCELOC, 190.8 ± 3.6 N vs 180.9 ± 6.6 N; P = 0.019; TTM, 186.3 ± 1.8 N vs 172.0 N ± 11.0 N; P = 0.043; and ATLANT, 104.9 ± 7.0 N vs 78.9 N ± 4.5 N; P = 0.001). In the OVX group, The breakout forces in TANTALUM, TTM, and CONCELOC did not differ significantly (P = 0.066). The breakout force for ATLANT in the OVX group was lower by a factor of 2.3 compared with TANTALUM and CONCELOC, and by 2.2 compared with TTM (P = 0.001). In the non-OVX group, the breakout force for ATLANT was significantly different from all other implants, with a reduction in fixation strength by a factor of 1.9 (P = 0.001).
CONCLUSION TANTALUM, TTM, and CONCELOC had equal bone-implant osseointegration in healthy and in osteoporotic bone. ATLANT had significantly decreased osseointegration (P = 0.001) in healthy and in osteoporotic bone.
