Abstract
Background: The pre-operative three-dimensional (3D) assessment of acetabular bone defects may not be evaluated properly with conventional radiographic and computed tomography images. This paper reports mid-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of complex revision total hip arthroplasty (r-THA) based on a 3D life-sized printed model. Methods: Patients who underwent r-THA for septic or aseptic acetabular loosening with acetabular defects Paprosky types IIc, IIIa, and IIIb between 2019 and 2021 were included. The outcomes of the study were to determine clinical and radiographic assessment outcomes at the time of the last follow-up. Results: 25 patients with mean age of 62.9 ± 10.8 (18-83) years old were included. The mean Harris hip score improved from 34.8 ± 8.1 pre-operative to 81.6 ± 10.4 points (p < 0.001). The mean visual analog scale decreased from 6.7 ± 1.4 points pre-operative to 2.4 ± 1.0 points (p < 0.001). The mean limb length discrepancy improved from -2.0 ± 1.2 cm pre-operative to -0.6 ± 0.6 cm (p < 0.001). The mean vertical position of the center of rotation (COR) changed from 3.5 ± 1.7 cm pre-operative to 2.0 ± 0.7 cm (p < 0.05). The mean horizontal COR changed from 3.9 ± 1.5 cm pre-operative to 3.2 ± 0.5 cm (p < 0.05). The mean acetabular component abduction angle changed from 59.7° ± 29.6° pre-operative to 46° ± 3.9 (p < 0.05). Conclusions: A three-dimensional-printed model provides an effective connection between the pre-operative bone defects' evaluation and the intraoperative findings, enabling surgeons to select optimal surgical strategies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Revision hip arthroplasty in the presence of complex acetabular deficiencies is challenging. Cement, allograft, reconstruction rings and porous trabecular metal now provide versatile options for acetabular fixation and restoration of acetabular offset. We compare acetabular impaction bone grafting (AIBG) and trabecular metal (TM) cups at long-term follow-up. METHODS 53 patients who underwent revision hip arthroplasty were retrospectively reviewed from local joint registry data. 36 patients were revised using AIBG and 17 with TM. Median clinical follow-up was 9.57 (2.46-18.72) years and 9.65 (7.22-12.46) years, respectively. 82% of the TM group and 63% of the AIBG group were ⩾ Paprosky 2C. Re-revision was considered failure. Radiographs demonstrating 5 mm of femoral head migration and 5° of acetabular component inclination change were considered loose. RESULTS Patients receiving AIBG were younger (68 vs. 74 years) with a longer interval from initial arthroplasty to revision (17 vs. 13 years). Revisions in both groups were indicated most commonly for failed cementing (AIBG 88.9% vs. TM 70.5%). No TM reconstructions underwent re-revision, with only 1 failing at 6.3 years, compared with 9 AIBG re-revisions. When revising for sepsis, 33% of AIBG revisions failed. CONCLUSIONS AIBG demonstrated high failure rates at long-term follow-up when compared to TM constructs. We recommend the use of AIBG in small cavitary defects only. We strongly advise against its use in the setting of significant bony defects and for prosthetic joint infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are difficult to treat and represent a significant burden to the healthcare system. Two-stage revision surgery with placement of an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer is currently the gold standard for treatment in the United States for late-onset infections. We evaluate the efficacy of varying doses of vancomycin added to antibiotic-containing acrylic cement spacers and discuss the biomechanical and antimicrobial properties of using high versus low doses of vancomycin in cement spacers in the hip and knee. MATERIALS AND METHODS Commercially available Copal cement containing either gentamicin and clindamycin (G + C) or gentamicin and vancomycin (G + V) was prepared with the manual addition of low (2 g) and high (6 g) doses of vancomycin. In vitro mechanical testing was then carried out according to ISO 5833 and DIN 53435, as well as inhibition zone assays against common PJI pathogens. Additionally, inhibition zone assays were conducted on two commercially available prefabricated spacers containing gentamicin: Copal Exchange G and Cemex Spacer-K. RESULTS In biomechanical testing, Copal G + V with the addition of 6 g of vancomycin failed to meet the ISO standard. Copal G + C and Copal G + V with low and high dosages of vancomycin were all effective against the tested pathogens and displayed constant efficacy for a duration of 42 days. High doses of vancomycin showed significantly lower mechanical stability. Moreover, Copal Exchange G showed significantly larger inhibition zones across 42 days. DISCUSSION While higher concentrations of vancomycin appear to improve the antimicrobial efficacy of cement, they also reduce its mechanical stability. Despite its smoother surface, the Copal Exchange G spacer exhibits large inhibition zones after 1 day and maintains consistently large inhibition zones over 6 weeks. Thus, it may be preferred for use in two-stage revision surgery. CONCLUSION Copal Exchange G is more effective than Cemex Spacer K against S. aureus and E. coli. The manual addition of vancomycin to cement containing double antibiotics is very effective. The influence on ISO compression is low, the ISO bending modulus is increased, and ISO bending, DIN bending, and DIN impact, are reduced.

Abstract
Hip pain is a prevalent degenerative joint symptoms, imposing a significant global health burden. Hip pain is experiencing an increase in incidences in Korea due to its aging society, and the social burden of hip pain continues to rise as the hip joint is crucial for gait and balance. This study assessed the epidemiology of hip pain in Korea using data from the fifth version of Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES V-5). The research analyzed data from 8,898,044 Koreans to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of hip pain and abnormal hip X-ray. Variables encompassed medical, demographic, mental, social, and musculoskeletal factors. Descriptive analysis and propensity score matching analyses unveiled characteristics of Koreans experiencing hip pain or showing abnormal hip x-ray. The study provides insights into the epidemiology of hip pain in the entire Korean population, and further suggesting the effective management of hip pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As one of the most challenging fractures to orthopedic surgeons, acetabular fractures show a wide range of incidence among countries and regions with even more variance in the treatment modalities. In this study, we aimed to investigate the epidemiology of acetabular fractures, and to compare the rate of subsequent total hip arthroplasty (THA) between nonoperative and operative treatments in South Korea using a medical claims database. METHODS This was a retrospective study using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment database. Patients admitted for acetabular fractures from January 2007 to December 2018 were identified using International Classification of Diseases-10 codes. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the cumulative incidence of THA between two groups. We also evaluated the survivorship of operative group according to the type of institutions. RESULTS The incidence rate of acetabular fractures increased by 28% between 2007 and 2018. Acetabular fractures were more common in men (62%) than women (38%), and most common in the patients older than 80 years. The number of acetabular fractures was estimated to increase 1.7-fold in 2030 compared to 2018. Operative treatment accounted for 16% of cases, and nonoperative treatment for 84%. The incidence of subsequent THA was higher in the operative treatment group than in the nonoperative group (P < 0.001). The higher rate in the operative treatment group is probably related with the severity of the fracture type. The rate of subsequent THA was higher in patients who initially treated in general hospitals compared with those who were initially treated in tertiary hospitals. CONCLUSION The incidence of acetabular fractures is increasing in South Korea, in line with global trends. Most acetabular fractures are treated conservatively, and those who receive surgery are more likely to require a subsequent THA. Patients who were operated in general hospitals had highest possibility of subsequent THA after acetabular fractures.

Abstract
Knowledge of the relationship between the hip and spine is essential in the effort to minimize instability and improve outcomes following total hip arthroplasty (THA). A detailed yet straightforward preoperative imaging workup can provide valuable information on pelvic positioning, which may be helpful for optimum placement of the acetabular cup. For a streamlined preoperative assessment of THA candidates, classification systems with a capacity for providing a more personalized approach to performance of THA have been introduced. Familiarity with these systems and their clinical application is important in the effort to optimize component placement and reduce the risk of instability. Looking ahead, the principles of the hip-spine relationship are being integrated using emerging innovative technologies, promising further streamlining of the evaluation process.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), a condition characterized by the presence of a necrotic bone lesion in the femoral head, is caused by a disruption in the blood supply. Its occurrence is more common in young and middle-aged adults and it is the main reason for performance of total hip arthroplasty in this age group. Its incidence is increasing along with increased use of glucocorticoids for management of adjuvant therapy for treatment of leukemia as well as organ transplantation and other myelogenous diseases. Current information on etiology and pathogenesis, as well as natural history, stage system, and treatments is provided in this review. A description of the Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) criteria for classification of glucocorticoids- and alcohol-associated ONFH, 2019 ARCO staging system, and 2021 ARCO classification using computed tomography for the early stages of ONFH is also provided.

Optimization of Revision Hip Arthroplasty Workflow by Means of Detailed Pre-Surgical Planning Using Computed Tomography Data, Open-Source Software and Three-Dimensional-Printed Models. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:2516.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In revision hip arthroplasty (RHA), establishing the center of rotation (COR) can be technically challenging due to the acetabular bone destruction that is usually present, particularly in severe cases such as Paprosky type II and III defects. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the use of open-source medical image reconstruction software and low-cost 3D anatomical models in pre-surgical planning of RHA. METHODS A total of 10 patients, underwent RHA and were included in the study. Computed tomography (CT) scans were performed for all cases, before surgery and approximately 1 week after the procedure. The reconstruction of CT data, 3D virtual planning of the COR and positioning of acetabular cups, including their inclination and anteversion angles, was carried out using the free open source software platform 3D Slicer. In addition, anatomical models of the pelvis were built on a desktop 3D printer from polylactic acid (PLA). Preoperative and postoperative reconstructed imaging data were compared for each patient, and the position of the acetabular cups as well as the COR were evaluated for each case. RESULTS Analysis of the pre- and post-op center of rotation position data indicated statistically insignificant differences for the location of the COR on the X-axis (1.5 mm, t = 0.5741, p = 0.5868) with a fairly strong correlation of the results (r = -0.672, p = 0.0982), whilst for the location of the COR in the Y and Z-axes, there was statistical dependence (Y axis, 4.7 mm, t = 3.168 and p = 0.0194; Z axis, 1.9 mm, t = 1.887 and p = 0.1081). A strong correlation for both axes was also observed (Y and Z) (Y-axis, r = 0.9438 and p = 0.0014; Z-axis, r = 0.8829 and p = 0.0084). Analysis of inclination angle values showed a statistically insignificant difference between mean values (3.9 degrees, t = 1.111, p = 0.3092) and a moderate correlation was found between mean values (r = -0.4042, p = 0.3685). Analysis of the anteversion angle showed a statistically insignificant difference between mean values (1.9 degrees, t = 0.8671, p = 0.4192), while a moderate correlation between mean values was found (r = -0.4782, p = 0.2777). CONCLUSIONS Three-dimensional reconstruction software, together with low-cost anatomical models, are very effective tools for pre-surgical planning, which have great potential use in orthopedic surgery, particularly RHA. In up and in- and up and out-type defects, it is essential to establish a new COR and to identify three support points within the revision acetabulum in order to correctly position acetabular cups.

Abstract
Introduction Arthroplasty is the final treatment option for maintaining mobility and quality of life in many primary degenerative and (post-) traumatic joint diseases. Identification of research output and potential deficits for specific subspecialties may be an important measure to achieve long-term improvement of patient care in this field. Methods Using specific search terms and Boolean operators, all studies published since 1945 to the subgroups of arthroplasty listed in the Web of Science Core Collection were included. All identified publications were analysed according to bibliometric standards, and comparative conclusions were drawn regarding the scientific merit of each subgroup. Results Most publications investigated the subgroups of septic surgery and materials followed by approach, navigation, aseptic loosening, robotic and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). In the last 5 years, research in the fields of robotic and ERAS achieved the highest relative increase in publications In contrast, research on aseptic loosening has continued to lose interest over the last 5 years. Publications on robotics and materials received the most funding on average while those on aseptic loosening received the least. Most publications originated from USA, Germany, and England, except for research on ERAS in which Denmark stood out. Relatively, publications on aseptic loosening received the most citations, whereas the absolute scientific interest was highest for the topic infection. Discussion In this bibliometric subgroup analysis, the primary scientific outputs focused on septic complications and materials research in the field of arthroplasty. With decreasing publication output and the least financial support, intensification of research on aseptic loosening is urgently recommended.

Abstract
Extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO) is an established method in revision total hip arthroplasty. Proximal migration of the greater trochanter fragment and the resulting non-union of the osteotomy remains a major problem, and several techniques have been developed to prevent its occurrence. This paper describes a novel modification of the original surgical technique in which a single monocortical screw is placed distally to one of the cerclages used for the fixation of the ETO. The contact between the screw and the cerclage counteracts the forces applied on the greater trochanter fragment and prevents trochanteric escape under the cerclage. The technique is simple and minimally invasive, does not require special skills or additional resources, or add to surgical trauma or operating time, and therefore represents a simple solution to a complicated problem.

Effect of a Patient Blood Management Program on the Appropriateness of Red Blood Cell Transfusion and Clinical Outcomes in Elderly Patients Undergoing Hip Fracture Surgery. J Korean Med Sci 2023; 38:e64. [PMID: 36852856 PMCID: PMC9970785 DOI: 10.3346/jkms.2023.38.e64] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Elderly patients with hip fractures frequently receive perioperative transfusions, which are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a patient blood management (PBM) program on the appropriateness of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and clinical outcomes in geriatric patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. METHODS In 2018, the revised PBM program was implemented at the Korea University Anam Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Elderly patients aged ≥ 65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery from 2017 to 2020 were evaluated. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were analyzed according to the timing of PBM implementation (pre-PBM, early-PBM, and late-PBM). Multiveriate regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors of the adverse outcomes, such as in-hospital mortality or 30-day readmission. RESULTS A total of 884 elderly patients were included in this study. The proportion of patients who received perioperative RBC transfusions decreased significantly (43.5%, 40.1%, and 33.2% for pre-PBM, early-PBM, and late-PBM, respectively; P = 0.013). However, the appropriateness of RBC transfusion significantly increased (54.0%, 60.1%, and 94.7%, respectively; P < 0.001). The duration of in-hospital stay and 30-day readmission rates significantly decreased. Multivariable regression analysis revealed that RBC transfusion (odds ratio, 1.815; 95% confidence interval, 1.137-2.899; P = 0.013) was significantly associated with adverse outcomes. CONCLUSION Implementing the PBM program increased the appropriateness of RBC transfusion without compromising transfusion quality and clinical outcomes. Therefore, adopting the PBM program may improve the clinical management of elderly patients following hip fracture surgery.

Can machine learning models predict failure of revision total hip arthroplasty? Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2022; 143:2805-2812. [PMID: 35507088 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04453-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) represents a technically demanding surgical procedure which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Understanding risk factors for failure of revision THA is of clinical importance to identify at-risk patients. This study aimed to develop and validate novel machine learning algorithms for the prediction of re-revision surgery for patients following revision total hip arthroplasty. METHODS A total of 2588 consecutive patients that underwent revision THA was evaluated, including 408 patients (15.7%) with confirmed re-revision THA. Electronic patient records were manually reviewed to identify patient demographics, implant characteristics and surgical variables that may be associated with re-revision THA. Machine learning algorithms were developed to predict re-revision THA and these models were assessed by discrimination, calibration and decision curve analysis. RESULTS The strongest predictors for re-revision THA as predicted by the four validated machine learning models were the American Society of Anaesthesiology score, obesity (> 35 kg/m2) and indication for revision THA. The four machine learning models all achieved excellent performance across discrimination (AUC > 0.80), calibration and decision curve analysis. Higher net benefits for all machine learning models were demonstrated, when compared to the default strategies of changing management for all patients or no patients. CONCLUSION This study developed four machine learning models for the prediction of re-revision surgery for patients following revision total hip arthroplasty. The study findings show excellent model performance, highlighting the potential of these computational models to assist in preoperative patient optimization and counselling to improve revision THA patient outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, case-control retrospective analysis.

[PMID: 34785937 PMCID: PMC8591111 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s337170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Identifying patients at high risk of developing chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) is of extreme importance in order to help launch appropriate therapeutic strategies and intensive initiation of pain management. Aim In this study, we aimed to conduct a multi-center retrospective cohort study to establish a prognostic model and a nomogram to predict the risks of CPSP in elderly patients who underwent hip arthroplasty at 6 months postoperatively. Methods We collected data from 736 patients aged >65 years who had undergone hip arthroplasty from October 1, 2016 to September, 30, 2018 at multiple tertiary referral centers in Guangzhou, China. All data were randomly stratified into a training set and a testing set at a ratio of 8:2. Data were analyzed via multiple logistic regression analysis with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and areas under the curve. This model was further validated by estimating calibration and discrimination. A nomogram was ultimately developed. Results A total of 736 eligible patients were enrolled, 27.20% of whom developed CPSP within 6 months postoperatively. Preoperative pain in the surgical area (OR=2.456, 95% CI:1.814–3.327, P<0.001), preoperative depression state (OR=1.256, 95% CI:1.146–1.378, P<0.001), surgical type (OR=7.138, 95% CI:3.548–14.364, P<0.001), acute postoperative numerical rating scale score (OR=5.537, 95% CI:3.607–8.499, P<0.001) and analgesic type (patient-controlled epidural analgesia: OR=0.129, 95% CI:0.055–0.299, P<0.001; patient-controlled intravenous analgesia: OR=0.033, 95% CI:0.011–0.097, P<0.001) were identified as independent significant factors associated with CPSP. A prognostic model was established and further validated. An ROC curve confirmed the predictive ability of this model with a high sensitivity value of 92.12% (95% CI:86.90–95.74) and specificity value of 91.72% (95% CI:88.77–94.11). A nomogram was developed to simplify the use of the predictive model in clinical practice. Conclusion This prognostic model could be of great value in clinical practice, serving as the basis for early personalized analgesic management of elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. ![]()
