Evaluation of Two Clinical Stem-Fit Philosophies Within the Femoral Canal Using a Preoperative Planning Tool: Could a Hybrid Approach Be Best? J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00910-0. [PMID: 39233098 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.08.047] [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: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 08/27/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has transformed patient lives, yet evolving expectations and the number of postoperative foot angle changes have underscored the need for precise component positioning. The objective of this study was to use 3-dimensional (3D) preoperative planning to evaluate stem alignment and orientation for three THA systems using two different stem-fit algorithms. It was hypothesized that the different stem alignments would yield similar changes in stem orientation and placement within the canal for all 3 systems. METHODS This study introduced a novel 3D preoperative planning tool, comparing two different surgical stem-fit philosophies within the canal: "canal fit" (CF) and "anatomical fit" (AF). We virtually implanted 10 subjects with three different THA implant systems using both philosophies, evaluating 60 total fits within the canals. The CF philosophy aimed to minimize cortical bone removal. In contrast, the AF philosophy prioritized aligning the implanted head with the anatomical head center. RESULTS Detailed analyses revealed that AF led to fixation occurring mainly on the medial aspect of the stem, while CF exhibited a more even distribution between medial and lateral sides. The AF philosophy achieved significantly closer placement of the implanted head to the anatomical center (2.0 to 2.1 mm) compared to the CF philosophy (3.0 to 6.0 mm) (P < 0.01). The AF resulted in neutral stem orientation (0°) across all stems, whereas the CF exhibited greater malrotation (2.0 to 7.0°) (P < 0.02). The AF required more bone removal (0.13 to 0.46 cm³) than the CF (0.02 to 0.06 cm³) (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The findings underscore the importance of 3D planning, emphasizing its potential to improve stem version alignment in THA. The results from this study may advocate 3D preoperative planning with robotic surgery to plan stem placement within the canal while maintaining anatomical femoral head restoration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the present study, the surgeon aimed to align the stem at 5° to 25° in anteversion. The robotic technology was used to measure stem anteversion with respect to proximal femur anteversion at different levels down the femur. METHODS A total of 102 consecutive patients underwent robotic-arm-assisted total hip arthroplasty (RTHA). 3D CT-based preoperative planning was performed to determine femoral neck version (FNV), posterior cortex anteversion (PCA), anterior cortex anteversion (ACA), and femoral metaphyseal axis anteversion (MAA) at 3 different levels: D (10 mm above lesser trochanter), E (the midpoint of the planned neck resection line) and F (head-neck junction). The robotic system was used to define and measure stem anteversion during surgery. RESULTS Mean FNV was 6.6° (SD: 8.8°) and the mean MAA was consistently significantly higher than FNV, growing progressively from proximal to distal. Mean SV was 16.4° (SD: 4.7°). There was no statistically significant difference (P = 0.16) between SV and MAA at the most distal measured level. In 96.1% cases, the stem was positioned inside the 5°-25° anteversion range. CONCLUSIONS Femoral anteversion progressively increased from neck to proximal metaphysis. Aligning the stem close to femoral anteversion 10 mm above the lesser trochanter often led to the desired component anteversion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone maintenance after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is important for implant success. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between patient characteristics and periprosthetic bone maintenance after THA for better implant selection. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study enrolled 112 consecutive patients who underwent THA using full hydroxyapatite (HA) compaction with short (n = 55) or short-tapered wedge (n = 61) stems. Periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) was compared between the two groups after propensity score matching, and the relationship between periprosthetic BMD changes and patient background was analyzed. RESULTS Both groups showed similar periprosthetic BMD changes after adjusting for patient background using propensity score matching. Canal flare index > 3.7 in patients that underwent THA using tapered-wedge stem (odds ratio (OR), 3.2; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.3-7.9, p = 0.013) and baseline zone 1 BMD > 0.65 in patients that received with short HA compaction stems (OR, 430.0; 95% CI 1.3-1420, p = 0.040) were associated with proximal periprosthetic bone maintenance after THA. CONCLUSION Considering their predictive value, canal flare index and zone 1 BMD assessment might be useful strategies for implant selection during THA.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to assess the relationship between the three-dimensional (3D) alignment of short tapered-wedge cementless stems and bone mineral density (BMD) changes in patients followed up for 5 years after total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS We retrospectively analysed the hips of 52 patients who underwent THA using short tapered-wedge cementless stems at our institution from 2013 to 2016 with complete 5-year follow-up data. We evaluated the relationship between stem alignment, measured using a 3D-templating software, and BMD changes in the 7 Gruen zones. RESULTS After 1 year, significant negative correlations between varus insertion and a decrease in BMD in zone 7 and between flexed insertion and decreases in BMD in zones 3 and 4 were noted. After 5 years, significant negative correlations between varus insertion and a decrease in BMD in zone 7 and between flexed insertion and decreases in BMD zones 2, 3, and 4 were observed. With increased amounts of varus/flexion stem alignment, the amount of BMD loss decreased. There was no correlation between anteverted stem insertion and changes in BMD levels. CONCLUSIONS Our data showed that stem alignment affects BMD based on 5-year follow-up data after surgery. Careful observation is necessary, especially when using short tapered-wedge cementless stems, as stem alignment may affect changes in BMD levels more than 5 years after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional computed-tomography (3D-CT) planning for primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) typically uses the external femoral surface; as a result, it is difficult to predict the prosthetic femoral version (PFV) for uncemented femoral stems that press-fit to the internal surface of the bone. Cemented fixation allows the surgeon to adjust the version independent of the internal femoral anatomy. We aimed to better understand the effect of the fixation type on PFV. METHODS This was a case series study including a total of 95 consecutive patients (106 hips), who underwent uncemented (n = 81 hips) and cemented (n = 25 hips) primary THA using the posterior approach. The surgeon aimed for a PFV of 20°. Our primary objective was to compare PFV in both groups; our secondary objective was to evaluate the clinical outcomes. RESULTS The mean (± SD) PFV was 13° (± 9°) and 23° (± 8°) for the uncemented and cemented THA groups (P < 0.001), respectively. In the uncemented THA group, 36% of the patients had a PFV of < 10°. In the cemented THA group, this clinically important threshold dropped to 8%. Similarly, the Bland-Altman (BA) plots showed wider 95% limits of agreement for the uncemented group. Satisfactory clinical outcomes were recorded. CONCLUSION We found that the PFV was more clinically acceptable, for the posterior surgical approach, in the cemented group when compared to the uncemented group. Both THA groups reported high variability indicating the need to develop surgical tools to guide the PFV closer to the surgical target.

Abstract
Fitmore stem is a rectangular, tapered, short, cementless stem. A characteristic feature of this stem is that it provides rotational stability due to the high medullary occupancy achieved by its rectangular cross-section and thick antero- posterior width. We aimed to investigate the differences in periprosthetic bone remodelling between a rectangular- tapered short stem and a short tapered-wedge stem. Eighty patients who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty using a rectangular-tapered short stem (Fitmore) or a short tapered-wedge stem (Tri-Lock BPS) were enrolled in this study. Bone mineral densities (BMDs) in the seven Gruen zones were evaluated using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline, and at 6 and 24 months postoperatively. Peri-prosthetic BMD and clinical factors were assessed and compared. In addition, correlations between periprosthetic BMD changes and stem anteversion error were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient in the two groups. A significantly better postoperative periprosthetic BMD change was found in zones 1 and 7 in the rectangular-tapered group. Additionally, no significant correlation was observed between stem anteversion error and periprosthetic BMD changes in the rectangular-tapered groups. However, in the tapered-wedge group, there were significant negative correlations between the stem anteversion error and BMD changes at 6 months and 24 months in zones 1 and 7. In the rectangular-tapered group, a significantly better postoperative periprosthetic BMD change was found particularly in the region proximal to the stem. Rectangular-tapered short stem can be more resistant to rotation due to higher medullary occupancy and may lead to better periprosthetic BMD than the tapered-wedge short stem, especially in the proximal region of the stem.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implantation of the femoral component with suboptimal version is associated with instability of the reconstructed hip joint. High variability of Prosthetic Femoral Version (PFV) has been reported in primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). Three-dimensional (3D) Patient-Specific Instrumentation (PSI) has been recently developed and may assist in delivering a PFV within the intended range. We performed a pilot study to better understand whether the intra-operative use of a novel PSI guide, designed to deliver a PFV of 20°, results in the target range of PFV in primary cemented THA. METHODS We analysed post-operative Computed-Tomography (CT) data of two groups of patients who underwent primary cemented THA through posterior approach; 1. A group of 11 patients (11 hips) for which the surgeon used an intra-operative 3D-printed stem positioning guide (experimental) 2. A group of 24 patients (25 hips) for which the surgeon did not use the guide (control). The surgeon aimed for a PFV of 20°, and therefore the guide was designed to indicate the angle at which the stem was positioned intra-operatively. PFV angles were measured using the post-operative 3D-CT models of the proximal femurs and prosthetic components in both groups. Our primary objective was to compare the PFV in both groups. Our secondary objective was to evaluate the clinical outcome. RESULTS Mean (± SD) values for the PFV was 21.3° (± 4.6°) and 24.6° (± 8.2°) for the experimental and control groups respectively. In the control group, 20% of the patients reported a PFV outside the intended range of 10° to 30° anteversion. In the experimental group, this percentage dropped to 0%. Satisfactory clinical outcome was recorded in both groups. CONCLUSION The intra-operative use of a PSI PFV guide helped the surgeon avoid suboptimal PFV in primary cemented THA. Further studies are needed to evaluate if the PSI guide directly contributes to a better clinical outcome.

Abstract
Background To improve implant survival through accelerated early bone remodeling during total hip arthroplasty (THA), hydroxyapatite (HA) is widely used as a bioactive coating, which is believed to enhance initial fixation by osseointegration. We aimed to investigate the relationship between stem insertion alignment and postoperative bone mineral density (BMD) changes in patients with full hydroxyapatite-coated (HA) compaction short stem and short tapered-wedge stem. Methods This retrospective cohort study enrolled 115 consecutive patients (115 joints) undergoing THA using the full HA compaction short (n = 59) and short tapered-wedge (n = 56) stems. Stem alignment, including anteversion, valgus, and anterior tilt were measured by a three-dimensional template using computed tomography data. Post-operative peri-prosthetic BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The relationship between stem alignment and BMD changes in the stems was analyzed. Results Patterns of peri-prosthetic BMD changes were similar in both groups. Stem insertion alignments of anteversion, valgus, and anterior tilt were different between the two stem types. Stem alignment of valgus and anterior tilt did not affect peri-prosthetic BMD in either of the stem type. An absolute anteversion difference between stem anteversion and original canal anteversion caused significant peri-prosthetic BMD loss in Gruen zones one and seven in the tapered-wedge stem. However, stem alignment of absolute anteversion difference did not affect BMD changes in the HA compaction stem. Conclusions Peri-prosthetic bone remodeling remained unaffected by stem alignment after THA with the new short full HA compaction stem.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between acetabular 3-dimensional (3D) alignment reorientation and clinical range of motion (ROM) after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). METHODS 50 patients (58 hips) with hip dysplasia participated in the study and underwent curved PAO. The pre- and postoperative 3D centre-edge (CE) angles and femoral anteversion were measured and compared with clinical outcomes, including postoperative ROM. RESULTS The correlation between pre- and postoperative acetabular coverage and postoperative ROM was evaluated. Postoperative abduction and internal rotation ROM were significantly associated with postoperative lateral CE angles (abduction; p < 0.001, internal rotation; p = 0.028); flexion and internal rotation ROM was significantly associated with postoperative anterior CE angles (flexion; p < 0.001, internal rotation; p = 0.028). Femoral anteversion was negatively correlated with postoperative abduction (p = 0.017) and external rotation (p = 0.047) ROM. CONCLUSION Postoperative anterior acetabular coverage may affect internal rotation ROM more than the lateral coverage. Therefore, the direction of acetabular reorientation should be carefully determined according to 3D alignment during PAO.

Abstract
Periprosthetic bone loss may lead to major complications in hip arthroplasty, including aseptic loosening, implant migration, and even periprosthetic fracture. Such a complication leads to revision surgeries, which are expensive, technically demanding, and result in a low satisfaction rate. Therefore, a study was conducted of the factors affecting the periprosthetic bone loss around the stem that caused these complications. Factors influencing periprosthetic bone loss include demographic factors such as age, sex, obesity, smoking, and comorbidity including diabetes and osteoporosis. The implant design and fixation method are also factors that are determined before surgery. In addition, there are surgical factors, such as surgical approach and surgical technique, and we wish to investigate the factors affecting periprosthetic bone loss around the stem by comparing the effects of postoperative rehabilitation protocols and osteoporosis drugs.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:290. [PMID: 33740931 PMCID: PMC7980352 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-021-04161-4] [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: 12/16/2020] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Stress shielding after total hip arthroplasty (THA) leads to loss of bone mineral density (BMD) around the femoral implants, particularly in the proximal area. Loss of BMD around the implant is likely to occur within 1 year after THA; however, its severity depends on patient characteristics. This study evaluated preoperative factors correlated with the severity of zone 7 BMD loss after THA. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 48 patients who underwent primary THA from October 2011 to December 2015. All patients underwent implantation of a Zweymüller-type femoral component without any postoperative osteoporosis medications. The objective variable was a change in zone 7 BMD after 1 year. Factors evaluated included age, body mass index, Japanese Orthopaedic Association score, Harris Hip Score, Canal Flare Index (CFI), and lumbar BMD on the frontal and lateral sides. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses identified factors correlated with loss of zone 7 BMD. Results Univariate regression analysis identified CFI (P = 0.003) and preoperative lumbar BMD on the anterior-posterior (P = 0.003) and lateral (P < 0.001) sides as being correlated with loss of zone 7 BMD. Multivariate regression analysis identified CFI (P = 0.014) and lumbar BMD on the lateral side (P < 0.001) as being correlated independently with loss of zone 7 BMD. Conclusion Lower preoperative lumbar BMD on the lateral side and lower CFI were correlated with zone 7 BMD loss after THA. Patients with these characteristics should be monitored carefully for severe BMD loss after THA.

Radiographic analysis of the proximal femoral anatomy in the Croatian population. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2021; 45:923-929. [PMID: 33442760 PMCID: PMC8052230 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-021-04942-5] [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: 12/23/2020] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Purpose The goal of total hip endoprosthesis is to achieve painless and functional hip for long term. Accurate reconstruction of hip anatomy largely depends on the implant design. In order to select an implant in correspondence with the native hip, the proximal femoral morphology has been in focus of many studies in the past years. The purpose of this study is to analyze proximal femoral geometry in the Croatian population by radiographic evaluation. Methods We conducted a retrospective study analyzing conventional radiographies of the hip, obtained within the last four years from the database of Clinic for Orthopaedic Surgery Lovran. The number of studied patients was 300,168 women and 132 men. The proximal femoral geometric parameters assessed were as follows: femoral head diameter, femoral neck length, neck-shaft angle, angle of femoral neck anteversion, and lateral femoral offset. The results obtained were compared between genders and with results of other studies. Results Proximal femoral anatomy differed in femoral head diameter and lateral femoral offset between males and females in our group of patients, while femoral neck length, femoral neck shaft angle, and femoral neck anteversion have shown similar values in both genders. Our study also showed specificity of the Croatian population in almost all parameters of proximal femoral anatomy, in comparison with other ethnic groups. Conclusion Our results support the observation on high diversity in the morphology of the proximal femur and the specificity of the proximal femoral anatomy of the Croatian population.

Influence of different anteversion alignments of a cementless hip stem on primary stability and strain distribution. Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 2020; 80:105167. [PMID: 32977213 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2020.105167] [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: 01/22/2020] [Revised: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem anteversion in total hip arthroplasty is well known to have a high impact on dislocation, but empirical data regarding the clinical and biomechanical influence is lacking. Therefore, we evaluated the impact of different anteversion alignments on the primary stability and strain distribution of a cementless stem. METHODS The cementless CLS Spotorno stem was implanted in 3 different groups (each group n = 6, total n = 21) with different anteversion alignments: reference anteversion (8°), +15° torsion in anteversion (+23°), -15° torsion in retroversion (-7°) using composite femurs (Sawbones). Primary stability was determined by 3-dimensional micromotions using a dynamic loading procedure simulating walking on level ground. Additionally, surface strains were registered before and after stem insertion in the 3 different groups, using one composite femur for each group (total n = 3). FINDINGS The micromotion measurements did not show a significant difference between the 3 evaluated alignments. Moreover, determination of the strain distribution did also not reveal an obvious difference. INTERPRETATION This biomechanical study simulating walking on level ground indicates that there is no considerable influence of stem ante-/retroversion variation (±15°) on the initial stability and strain distribution when evaluating the cementless CLS Spotorno in composite femora.

Abstract
This study observed anterior coverage extent after lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without anterior or posterior rotation, during curved periacetabular osteotomy by three-dimensional simulation, and determined if preoperative pelvic morphology affects postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion. Thirty patients scheduled for consecutive primary curved periacetabular osteotomy for developmental hip dysplasia at our hospital between 2016 and 2017 were included. Virtual acetabular osteotomies were performed to achieve a postoperative lateral center-edge angle of 30°. We measured anterior center-edge angles before curved periacetabular osteotomy through the medial one-third and one-quarter of the femoral head as an index reflecting the pelvic morphology medial to the femoral head center. The range of motion simulation was performed after virtual curved periacetabular osteotomy. Single linear regression analysis was performed to examine correlations between preoperative pelvic morphology parameters and anterior center-edge angles after virtual osteotomy. Furthermore, linear regression analysis was used to assess correlations between center-edge angles and simulated range of motions (P < .05). Anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy was more strongly correlated with the anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = .92, P < .0001) and one-quarter (r = .84, P < .0001) of the femoral head. Flexion angle and internal rotation at 90° flexion showed significant correlations with anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = -.62, P = .0003; r = -.57, P = .001) and one-quarter (r = -.60, P = .0005; r = -.55, P = .002) of the femoral head and anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy (r = -.67, P = .0005; r = -.62, P = .0003). Measuring preoperative parameters reflecting pelvic morphology enables surgeons to predict postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion in curved periacetabular osteotomy cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that preoperative pelvic morphology may affect postoperative anterior coverage and postoperative clinical range of motion (ROM) leading to postoperative pincer type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between preoperative bone morphology and postoperative ROMs to prevent postoperative FAI after periacetabular osteotomy. METHODS Sixty-eight patients (71 hips) with hip dysplasia participated in this study and underwent curved PAO. The acetabular fragment was usually moved only by lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without intraoperative anterior or posterior rotation. The pre- and postoperative three-dimensional center-edge (CE) angles were measured and compared to the postoperative ROM. RESULTS Preoperative medial anterior CE angle was significantly associated with postoperative anterior CE angle, and the correlation coefficient of medial anterior CE and postoperative anterior CE was higher than the coefficient of preoperative anterior CE and postoperative anterior CE (preoperative anterior CE, rr = 0.27, p = 0.020; preoperative medial anterior CE, rr = 0.54, p < 0.001). Femoral anteversion correlated with postoperative internal rotation angle at 90° flexion (r = 0.32, p = 0.021). In multiple linear regressions, postoperative internal rotation angle at 90° flexion angle was significantly affected by both medial CE angle through the medial one fourth of femoral head and femoral anteversion. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative medial anterior acetabular coverage was associated with postoperative anterior acetabular coverage. Further, the combination with preoperative medial anterior acetabular coverage and femoral anteversion can predict postoperative internal rotation at 90° flexion. Therefore, the direction of acetabular reorientation should be carefully considered when the patients have high preoperative medial anterior CE angle and small femoral anteversion.

Abstract
In total hip arthroplasty (THA), accurate positioning of components is important for the functionality and long life of the implant. Femoral component version has been underinvestigated when compared with the acetabular cup. Accurate prediction of the femoral version on the preoperative plan is particularly important because a well-fitting uncemented stem will, by definition, press-fit into a version that is dictated by the anatomy of the proximal femur. A better understanding of this has recently become an unmet need because of the increased use of uncemented stems and of preoperative image-based planning. We present the first, three-dimensional (3D) comparison between the planned and achieved orientation and position of the femoral components in THA. We propose a comparison method that uses the 3D models of a, computed tomography-generated (CT-generated), preoperative plan and a postoperative CT to obtain the discrepancy in the six possible degrees of freedom. We ran a prospective study (level 2 evidence) of 30 patients undergoing uncemented THA to quantify the discrepancy between planned and achieved femoral stem orientation and position. The discrepancy was low for femoral stem vertical position and leg length, and varus-valgus and anterior-posterior orientation. The discrepancy was higher for femoral version with a mean (±SD) of -1.5 ± 7.8 deg. Surgeons should be aware of the variability of the eventual position of uncemented stems in THA and acknowledge the risk of achieving a less-than-optimal femoral version, different from the preoperative 3D CT plan.
