In primary total hip arthroplasty, the direct anterior approach leads to higher levels of creatine kinase and lower levels of C-reactive protein compared to the posterolateral approach: a propensity score matching analysis of short-term follow-up data. J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:594.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This retrospective study compares the invasiveness of the direct anterior approach (DAA) and the posterolateral approach (PLA) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) by assessing three widely used inflammation-related serum markers in the first ten post-operative days. METHODS The database of our institution was mined for primary THAs conducted by the DAA or the PLA from February 2020 to June 2022. Demographics and creatine kinase (CK), C-reactive protein (CRP), and white blood cells were compared. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) analysis (1:1 ratio) was conducted based on multiple variables. RESULTS PSM analysis yielded 44 pairs of DAA and PLA patients. CK was significantly higher (p < 0.001) in the DAA than in the PLA group on postoperative day (POD) 2, 5 and 10. The POD2, POD5 and POD10 CK/preoperative CK ratio was 12.9, 5.0 and 0.8 in DAA and 8.8, 3.3 and 0.6 in PLA (p = 0.017, p = 0.012 and p = 0.025, respectively). The POD2, POD5 and POD10 CRP/preoperative CRP ratio was 95.1, 65.6 and 22.8 in PLA and 34.7, 23.3 and 8.9 in DAA (p < 0.001, p = 0.002 and p < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION PSM analysis of early postoperative CK and CRP values demonstrated that the DAA should be considered as a less stressful approach, not as a muscle-sparing or a minimally invasive THA approach.

Sun Z, Jiang L, Chen R, Zhao L, Li X. Clinical effects of direct anterior internal fixation with Herbert screws on hip joint function and quality of life in patients with Pipkin II femoral head fractures. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:63-70. [PMID: 34125249 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-021-03973-2] [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: 02/18/2021] [Accepted: 05/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to explore the therapeutic effects of direct anterior internal fixation with Herbert screws on hip joint function and quality of life in patients with Pipkin type II femoral head fractures (FHF). METHODS From Dec 2017 to Jul 2020, 68 patients with Pipkin type II FHF were received in our hospital and divided into two groups. The direct anterior internal fixation (DAIF) group including 34 cases were treated by direct anterior internal fixation with Herbert screws. The control group of 34 patients received modified internal fixation with Herbert screws via posterior superior iliac spine and ectogluteus. The duration time and blood loss in operation as well as the postoperative drainage volume, hospital stays and complications were observed. The comparison of pain degree, hip functions, and life quality between two groups was performed. RESULTS All the patients were followed up, and the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage and hospital stay of the DAIF group were all significantly lower than those in the control group, with (p < 0.05, respectively). The pain degree of the DAIF group was significantly lower than that of the control group 7, 15 and 30 days after the operation (p < 0.05, respectively). At 3, 6 and 9 months after the operation, the hip function recovery of the DAIF group was significantly better than control group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in preoperative physiological function, physiological function, emotional role, physical pain, general health, vitality, social function and mental health (p > 0.05). Six months after the operation, the physiological function, physiological function, emotional role, physical pain, general health, vitality, social function and mental health of the DAIF group were significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). No postoperative complications occurred in both groups. CONCLUSION The treatment of directly anterior internal fixation with Herbert screws is effective for Pipkin type II FHF, like improving the function of hip joint and quality of life in patients. The method is reliable and worth clinical use.

Serum biomarkers for the assessment of muscle damage in various surgical approaches in primary total hip arthroplasty: a systematic review of comparative studies. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2022; 46:1681-1692. [PMID: 35641792 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-022-05442-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Using serum biomarkers, this systematic review assessed soft tissue injury following different total hip arthroplasty surgical approaches. The purposes were to determine if there is any advantage between the standard and minimal invasive approaches, and to compare tissue damage of the respective surgical approaches using biomarkers such as creatine kinase, myoglobin, c-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, skeletal troponin and interleukins. METHOD A search in Pubmed/MEDLINE, Scopus and Web of Science databases was conducted in October 2021 with the use of PRISMA guidelines. Search items were ("biomarkers" OR "markers" OR "tissue damage" OR "muscle damage") AND "approach" AND ("total hip arthroplasty" OR "total hip replacement"). Inclusion criteria were prospective, randomized, controlled trials or prospective, comparative studies, comparing serum markers for muscle damage in two or more surgical approaches for primary total hip arthroplasty. Exclusion criteria were study protocols, case reports, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, studies in non-English language or without available full text, and studies not recording biomarkers of muscle damage. RESULTS Initial search revealed 508 studies; after subtraction of duplicates, and exclusion criteria, 31 studies remained for analysis. No advantage between different approaches was found when evaluating biomarkers, and no specific biomarkers had a distinct role in tissue damage in total hip arthroplasty. Anterior and minimally invasive approaches were associated with lower values of soft tissue (creatine kinase) and inflammation (c-reactive protein) biomarkers compared to the standard approaches. CONCLUSION Measurement of serum biomarkers after primary total hip arthroplasty for the estimation of tissue damage has unclear or little clinical value.

[PMID: 34768504 PMCID: PMC8584609 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10214985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 10/22/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND While primary hip arthroplasty is the most common operative procedure in orthopedic surgery, a periprosthetic joint infection is its most severe complication. Early detection and prediction are crucial. In this study, we aimed to determine the value of postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) and develop a formula to predict this rare, but devastating complication. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 708 patients with primary hip arthroplasty. CRP, white blood cell count (WBC), and several patient characteristics were assessed for 20 days following the operative procedure. RESULTS Eight patients suffered an early acute periprosthetic infection. The maximum CRP predicted an infection with a sensitivity and specificity of 75% and 56.9%, respectively, while a binary logistic regression reached values of 75% and 80%. A multinominal logistic regression, however, was able to predict an early infection with a sensitivity and specificity of 87.5% and 78.9%. With a one-phase decay, 71.6% of the postoperative CRP-variance could be predicted. CONCLUSION To predict early acute periprosthetic joint infection after primary hip arthroplasty, a multinominal logistic regression is the most promising approach. Including five parameters, an early infection can be predicted on day 5 after the operative procedure with 87.5% sensitivity, while it can be excluded with 78.9% specificity.
