[PMID: 37745965 PMCID: PMC10517270 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2023.101199] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Numerous cementless stems are available to maximize implant stability, fit, and survivorship in total hip arthroplasty. Recently, a new metaphyseal-filling triple-taper collared stem was designed using femoral morphology data obtained from over 1300 computed tomography scans. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiographic fit and fill of this new stem in the coronal and sagittal dimensions. Methods In this retrospective review, postoperative radiographs of patients receiving this new stem were analyzed in accordance with previously published fit and fill analyses. All radiographs were taken 6 weeks postoperatively. Means and standard deviations were reported for all fit and fill parameters. Results Fifty-nine hips were analyzed from 55 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. The coronal proximal fill was 85.02 ± 8.06%, and coronal distal fill was 75.21 ± 9.71%. The sagittal proximal fill was 86.51 ± 8.77%, and sagittal distal fill was 59.17 ± 8.66%. Mean calcar collar coverage was 80.64 ± 19.6% and all patients had full seating of the collar. Six cases (10.2%) had a collar length greater than the calcar length, with a mean collar overhang of 0.7 ± 0.4 mm. Conclusions This new stem demonstrated significant proximal fill in both the coronal and sagittal planes and validates the design intent of this implant. This is the first study to evaluate sagittal fit and fill of a femoral stem. Long-term follow-up is required to understand the clinical impact these fit and fill characteristics may have on patients' long-term outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The progress of 3D imaging and manufacturing of implants has made it possible to achieve a custom-made concept in THA. The custom-made cementless femoral stem provides optimal implant stability combined with restoration of the native hip mechanics. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term survivorship of custom-made hip femoral stems in two populations of patients undergoing THA: patients under 50 years old (young patients group) and patients with high-grade developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH group). METHODS A series of 232 primary custom-made cementless THA stems were retrospectively evaluated in patients less than 50 years old at the time of surgery and at follow-up after an average of 20 years. A second series of 26 custom-made cementless stem THAs for late DDH (21 patients) including only Crowe grade III and grade IV were also retrospectively evaluated with an average follow-up of 16 years. The clinical and radiological evaluations were performed preoperatively and at yearly intervals. RESULTS For the young patient group, the follow-up ranged from 14 to 27 years. The HHS and the Merle D'Aubigne-Postel score significantly improved from preoperatively to a mean of 94.1 (range 48-100) and 15.9 (range 9-18), respectively. Taking stem revision for aseptic loosening as an endpoint, survivorship was 96.8% at 20 years (95% confidence interval, CI 95.1-98.5). For the DDH group, the follow-up ranged from 10 to 22 years. The mean HHS increased significantly from preoperative 49 ± 22 points to the most recent follow-up examination with 86 13 points and survivorship was 96.1% (95% CI, 92.7-99.9). CONCLUSION Custom-made femoral stems provide good functional outcome and long-term survivorship in two specific populations of patients undergoing THAs: patients under 50 years old with high expectations and patients with high-grade DDH.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2019; 105:937-942. [PMID: 31255501 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2019.04.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2018] [Revised: 03/28/2019] [Accepted: 04/23/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pre-operative 3D planning based on computed tomography (CT) imaging is used to optimise the restitution of normal hip anatomy during primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although CT planning has been proven effective and reproducible, its influence on long-term THA outcomes is unknown. In this 10-year follow-up study of patients managed with the same technique of CT-planned primary anatomical THA, the objectives were to assess femoral implant survival, long-term functional outcomes, 10-year outcomes of titanium modular femoral necks, and associations with the dislocation rate. Hypothesis Pre-operative CT planning of primary THA ensures achievement of the NICE criterion of a lower than 5% femoral revision rate within 10 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 61 patients (61 hips) managed between 2004 and 2007 by CT-planned primary THA via the posterior approach, with an uncemented anatomical femoral component (SPS®, Symbios); when deemed necessary by the surgeon to restore normal anatomy, a titanium modular femoral neck was used (35/61 patients). After 10 years, 17 patients had died and 3 were lost to follow-up, leaving 41 patients with a mean age of 76 years (range, 60-91 years) for re-evaluation. Clinical outcomes were assessed by determining the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and the Postel-Merle d'Aubigné (PMA) score, which were compared to baseline values. Radiographs were evaluated using the AGORA Roentgenographic Assessment system (ARA). RESULTS The 10-year femoral component survival rate was 96% (95%CI, 88;99%). Revision was required in 4 patients, to treat delayed peri-prosthetic fractures (n=2) or to correct initial cup malposition (n=2). No changes occurred from 2010 to last follow-up in the mean HHS (90 [95%CI, 84;95] and 91 [95%CI, 77;96], respectively) or mean PMA score (16 [95%CI, 14;17] and 15.5 [95%CI, 14;16.5], respectively). The mean ARA score was 5.2 (range, 3-6) at last follow-up. No complications related to the use of modular femoral necks were recorded. Dislocation occurred in 2 patients, but in neither was the pre-operative plan followed during surgery. DISCUSSION The SPS® stem produced good 10-year clinical and radiographic outcomes. No patients experienced complications related to use of a titanium modular femoral neck. The restoration of anatomical hip geometry made possible by pre-operative CT planning provided sustained clinical improvements with a low complication rate. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, retrospective observational cohort study.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study is to report the 20-year follow-up of a continuous series of 232 total hip arthroplasties (THAs) performed in patients aged less than 50 at the index surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a retrospective monocentric study which reports the clinical, radiographical and survival results of 232 THAs performed with a custom cementless femoral stem in 212 patients evaluated at follow-up ranging from 14 to 27 years. RESULTS At the time of follow-up, the mean Harris Hip Score was 94.1 (range 48-100). The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score was >80 points in all 5 categories for 146 patients (68.9%). 18 hips (8.5%) showed radiographical femoral abnormalities. 23 hips (10.8%) underwent revision of the implants. 13 were isolated cup revisions. 3 more hips had bipolar revisions for aseptic loosening at 15, 20 and 21 years. Taking stem revision for aseptic loosening as an endpoint, survivorship was 96.8% at 20 years (95% confidence interval, 95.1-98.5; patients at risk 76) and 94.5% at 25 years (91.7-97.3; patients at risk 12). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study confirm that THA using this custom-designed stem can provide excellent clinical and radiographical outcomes at a mean follow-up of 20 years in patients younger than 50. The individual 3D femoral stem and prosthetic neck has been able to restore extra- and intramedullary functional anatomy in this young and active cohort of patients.

Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a spectrum of pathology that involves dysplasia of both the acetabulum and the femur. If left untreated, it can develop to hip pain and osteoarthritis, which eventually require total hip arthroplasty (THA). A broad array of anatomical abnormalities of the acetabulum and femur, plus the younger age of DDH patients make THA a great challenge. Meticulous operation planning with various options is one of the most important prerequisites of a successful THA. This review presents the current concepts of acetabular and femoral reconstruction in THA for DDH, including high hip center, acetabular bone deficiency, highly porous metal, correction of femoral anteversion, femoral shortening osteotomy, stem selection, among others.

Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is accompanied by morphological alterations on both the acetabular and the femoral side. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) provides effective treatment in cases of neglected DDH but requires elaborate preoperative planning. To determine the morphological changes resulting from the dysplasia, the anatomic acetabular position, the height of the femur head dislocation, the height of the femur head dislocation, and the combined anteversion must all be established. In addition, a vital and complicated process of strategizing leg length balance must be conducted in cases of severe DDH. Each type of leg length discrepancy (LLD), including bony and functional and anatomical LLD, should be evaluated in the context of the presence or absence of a fixed pelvic tilt. Moreover, with severe unilateral dislocated hips, a more inferior change in the original rotational center of the hip must be accounted for. Due to these multiple morphological changes, the accurate size of the prosthesis and the cup position are difficult to predict. In comparison with other methods, CT scan‐based 3‐dimensional templating provides the best accuracy. Despite the presence of anatomic alterations, various types of acetabular and femoral prostheses have been developed to treat hip dysplasia. Both cemented and cementless cups are used in DDH cases. In DDH accompanied by insufficient acetabular bone stock, a cemented cup combined with bone graft provides a reliable treatment. Monoblock stems can be used when the combined anteversion is less than 55°, and a modular stem system when this parameter is greater than 55°. Customized stems can be designed for DDH coupled with severe proximal femoral distortion. A ceramic‐on‐ceramic bearing is considered optimal for young DDH patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Options for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in high dislocated hips include subtrochanteric osteotomy (STO), high hip center positioning, and 2-stage surgery with progressive lowering using an external fixator before THA. We described the long-term results of 1-stage THA performed without STO, using a cementless customized stem associated if necessary with sequential tenotomies and/or greater trochanteric osteotomy. METHODS Ninety-eight consecutive THA without STO were performed using this technique. Of those 98 hips, 26 hips with high dislocation (12 class III and 14 class IV according to the Crowe classification) were evaluated at an average follow-up of 16 (10-22) years. RESULTS At the time of last follow-up, the mean Harris Hip Score was 86 points (37-100). The mean leg-length discrepancy was 7 ± 5 mm (0-17). Two transient (7.7%) nerve palsies (1 sciatic and 1 femoral) were notified. A revision was required for 6 hips (23.1%). Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis at 15 years regarding aseptic loosening of the femoral component was 87.5% (95% confidence interval, 76.5-99.1). During the same period, acetabular implant survivorship free from revision for aseptic loosening was 96.1% (95% confidence interval, 92.7-99.9). CONCLUSION The combination of intramedullary fit and extramedullary adaptation for offset and anteversion provided by the custom stem can avoid additional procedures associated to THA in high developmental dysplasia of the hip. The clinical function and long-term survival reported in this series is encouraging for THA performed in case of high hip dislocation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Due to complex anatomical considerations, results of cementless-stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in hip fusion remain controversial compared with conventional THA. We therefore aimed to analyse 3D anatomy of the fused hip based on pre-operative computed tomography (CT) scans, functional outcomes based on the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), modifications of hip anatomy based on post-operative standardised radiography, and determine complication rate and long-term survival based on Kaplan-Meier analysis. METHODS We retrospectively studied 23 hips that underwent conversion of a fused hip to THA using a 3D CT scan-based custom titanium (Ti alloy hypoxyapetite (HA)-coated stem. The mean follow-up was 15 (9-22) years. Femur anteversion ranged from -29° to 80°. RESULTS HHS improved from 59 to 89 points and average range of motion (ROM) was 88° for flexion. Back pain decreased in 62%, and knee pain decreased in 42%. The mean post-operative leg-length discrepancy was 7.8 mm. No intra-operative complications occurred. One aseptic stem loosening for mechanical failure was observed. The Kaplan-Meier survivorship considering revision for any reasons as the end point was 95.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) 92.4-98.8] at 15 years. CONCLUSION Custom cementless stems may be an interesting solution to address the particular anatomical features of hip fusion at the time of THA, with an excellent survival rate at 15 years.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total hip replacement is a successful procedure with long survival records compared to other joint arthroplasties. Cemented implants have been available for many years, however the complications associated with loosening and, ultimately, failure over time has led to the development of cementless stems and implants.The ideal prosthesis should recreate a biomechanically normal hip joint, allow pain-free function and last the patient's life span without requiring revision. Optimal results with uncemented femoral stems rely on obtaining initial stability, osseointegration, biological fixation, and uniform stress transfer to the proximal bone.There are a multitude of factors that can affect the integration, stability and fixation of these stems into bone, and understanding these factors is the key to choosing the appropriate implant for a specific femur. METHODS This article aims to discuss cementless prostheses based on evidence-based practice. Geometry, roughness, stem coating, technique and bone quality are among the factors discussed. This was achieved through a review of the current literature. CONCLUSIONS Uncemented femoral stems have shown good, long-term survivorship and functional outcome, with promising results in younger patients.Limitations in the current literature make it difficult to assess and compare different designs to determine optimal indications for each type.Biological fixation, in which the prosthesis is directly fixed to the bone, is the preferred fixation method.Future studies of cementless implants should consistently address patient age, activity level, bone type, and deformities so that more definitive conclusions can be drawn about when to use each design.

Abstract
Congenital disease of the hip (CDH) is a common reason for the development of secondary osteoarthritis at the hip joint and the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA). The distorted femoral anatomy in patients with CDH in combination with soft tissue considerations and leg length discrepancy complicate the procedure of THA and this sometimes precludes the implantation of classical industry designed femoral stems. In such cases a customised femoral implant must be used in order to optimise the fit of the stem to the femur, to improve strain distribution and to reconstruct hip biomechanics. The present study reviews the preoperative planning, the design and material selection of custom-made implants, the surgical techniques and the reported clinical results of the published literature on the use of custom-made femoral implants in patients with CDH.

Abstract
We evaluated the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty in 67 patients (86 hips) with congenital hip disease and excessive abnormal anatomy of the proximal femur with the use of custom-made femoral stems. The design of the stem was based on CT data following the principles of CAD-CAE-CAM technique. No serious complications attributed to the femoral stem were seen. Within a median follow-up of 127.5 months the 10-year survival of any of the components was 95.4% and respective value when aseptic loosening of the stem was considered was 98.1%. Patients with high dislocations had a 10-fold risk for loosening compared to those with low dislocations. No other parameter was associated with outcomes. The clinical and radiological evaluation was in consistency with the above outcomes.

[PMID: 24622927 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-014-1853-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2013] [Revised: 02/06/2014] [Accepted: 02/17/2014] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
The number of total hip arthroplasties is continuously rising. Although less invasive surgical techniques, sophisticated component design, and intraoperative navigation techniques have been introduced, the rate of peri- and postoperative complications, including dislocations, fractures, nerve palsies, and infections, is still a major clinical problem. Better patient outcome, faster recovery and rehabilitation, and shorter operation times therefore remain to be accomplished. A promising strategy is to use minimally invasive techniques in conjunction with modular implants, aimed at independently reconstructing femoral offset and leg length on the basis of highly accurate preoperative planning. Plain radiographs have clear limitations for the correct estimation of hip joint geometry and bone quality. Three-dimensional assessment based on computed tomography (CT) allows optimizing the choice and positions of implants and anticipating difficulties to be encountered during surgery. Postoperative CT is used to monitor operative translation and plays a role in arthroplastic quality management. Radiologists should be familiar with the needs of orthopedic surgeons in terms of CT acquisition, post-processing, and data transfer. The CT protocol should be optimized to enhance image quality and reduce radiation exposure. When dedicated orthopedic CT protocols and state-of-the-art scanner hardware are used, radiation exposure can be decreased to a level just marginally higher than that of conventional preoperative radiography. Surgeons and radiologists should use similar terminology to avoid misunderstanding and inaccuracies in the transfer of preoperative planning.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare in vivo fit and fill analysis of a new second-generation proximally coated cementless stem compared to its predicate design. This prospective trial of 100 total hip arthroplasties compared specific radiographic "Fit and Fill" parameters between the two designs. Fit type was assessed by comparing the type of canal fill. Post-operative fill parameters such as mean stem-to-canal ratios and mean minimum and maximum gaps between the stems to the cortical bone in different sections and areas were compared. A significantly higher proportion of the second-generation stems had Type I fit (82% vs. 54%), had better stem to canal fill ratio in the middle (90.6% vs. 85.3%) and distal sections (88.1% vs. 78.6%) compared to the older design. The new second-generation stem design had a significantly better canal fit and distal canal fill in the medial and lateral portions.

Abstract
THAin the dysplastic hip is a technically demanding procedure that requires careful preoperative planning. The common deformities associated with the dysplastic femur include hypoplasia, excessive neck anteversion, a valgus neck-shaft angle, metaphyseal-diaphyseal mismatch, and a posteriorly displaced greater trochanter. In selected cases, osteotomy of the femur may be performed to correct anteversion and/or avoid excessive leg lengthening and stretch of the sciatic nerve. All of these issues mandate careful preoperative planning. With the advent of modern surgical techniques and implants, the bone deformities in hip dysplasia can be successfully addressed and THA has proved to be a successful and durable operation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proximal cementless fixation using anatomic stems reportedly increases femoral fit and avoids stress-shielding. However, thigh pain was reported with the early stem designs. Therefore, a new anatomic cementless stem design was based on an average three-dimensional metaphyseal femoral shape. However, it is unclear whether this stem reduces the incidence of thigh pain. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We asked whether this stem design was associated with a low incidence of thigh pain and provided durable fixation and high function. METHODS One hundred seventy-one patients (176 THAs) who had the anatomic proximal hydroxyapatite-coated stem implanted were reviewed. Eleven (6%) patients were lost to followup and 34 (20%) died without revision surgery. We used the Harris hip score (HHS) to assess pain and function. We evaluated femoral stem fixation and stability with the score of Engh et al. and also calculated a 10-year survival analysis. We assessed 126 patients (131 hips) at a mean followup of 10 years (range, 8-11 years) RESULTS At last followup, two patients described slight thigh pain that did not limit their physical activities. All stems appeared radiographically stable and one stem was graded nonintegrated but stable. Five patients had revision surgery: one on the femoral side (for posttraumatic fracture) and four on the acetabular side. Considering stem revision for aseptic loosening as the end point, survivorship was 100% (range, 95.4%-99.9%) at 10 years. CONCLUSION This anatomic cementless design using only metaphyseal fixation with a wide mediolateral flare, a sagittal curvature, and torsion, allowed durable proximal stem stability and fixation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Osteochondrodysplasias are characterised by aberrant cartilage and bone development; consequently, patients may be subject to premature hip degeneration. In this population hip arthroplasty outcomes are variable. This series reviews the use of custom femoral implants in total hip replacements for patients with severe skeletal dysplasia. METHODS We reviewed 14 hips in nine patients with genetic dwarfism. Computed tomography (CT) scans of the pelvis and femurs were used to create custom titanium stems. Postoperative radiographs were reviewed for migration, osteolysis, fracture and restoration of leg length. Pre- and postoperative Harris hip scores (HHS) were compared, with a mean follow-up of 36.3 months. Mean age was 36.5 years (range 15-50 years) and mean height was 48 inches (range 42-55 inches). Three joints were classified as Crowe type I, two type II, three type III and six type IV. RESULTS Three hips (21%) required revision: two for stem migration and one for acetabular osteolysis. Eleven hips (79%) were stable with signs of osseointegration. No fractures, nerve damage or dislocations occurred. Two stems required cement fixation, and no liners were constrained. Significant osteolysis was seen on three radiographs. All patients walked independently, and mean HHS improved from 45 (24-58) to 71 (47-89). All leg length discrepancies were restored to within 3 mm of equal. CONCLUSIONS This study reports good midterm outcomes in a variety of skeletal dysplasias, thus confirming the efficacy of custom femoral implants in the management of this patient group.

Custom cementless THA in patients with skeletal dysplasia results in lower apparent revision rates than other types of femoral fixation. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2011; 469:1406-12.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with skeletal dysplasia are prone to degenerative hip disease thus requiring THA at a younger age than the general population. This is a technically demanding procedure with high complication and revision rates. Achieving good femoral fixation can be challenging because of the abnormal features of the hip. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We therefore determined: (1) survivorship, (2) function, (3) radiographic findings, and (4) complications associated with a cementless custom-made femoral component used in THAs for patients with skeletal dysplasia and compared these parameters with those from other types of femoral fixation. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1992 and 2005, 40 THAs were performed in 25 patients with skeletal dysplasia using custom-made cementless femoral components. There were 15 men and 10 women with a mean age of 37.5 years (range, 18-61 years) and a mean height of 145 cm (range, 120-173 cm). Patients were followed clinically and radiographically for a minimum of 4.3 years (mean, 10.1 years; range, 4.3-18.2 years). RESULTS The survivorship rates for the femoral and acetabular components were 92% and 70%, respectively, at 220 months. Revision arthroplasty was performed in four of 40 hips (10%). In two, the acetabular component was revised for aseptic loosening, one had both components revised for aseptic loosening, and one had an isolated femoral component revision for deep infection. The mean Harris hip score improved from 41 (range, 27-57) preoperatively to 80 (range, 51-94) at final followup. There were two intraoperative proximal femoral fractures and one dislocation. CONCLUSIONS When compared with studies with equal followup, custom-made cementless components in THAs for patients with skeletal dysplasia apparently had lower revision and complication rates with comparable function and higher midterm survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The clinical results of THR may be improved by correct femoral torsion. We evaluated the stem position by postoperative CT examination in 60 patients. METHODS 60 patients requiring total hip arthroplasty were prospectively enrolled in this study. Minimally invasive THR was performed (anterior approach) in a lateral decubitus position and each patient underwent a postoperative CT examination. The position of the stem was evaluated by an independent external institution. RESULTS Stem torsion ranged from – 19° retrotorsion to 33° antetorsion. Normal antetorsion (i.e 10–15° according to Tönnis) was present in 5 of 60 patients, so the prevalence of abnormal stem antetorsion was 92% (95% CI: 82–97). We found a stem antetorsion outside the range of 0–25° in 21 of 60 hips. Women had a higher mean stem antetorsion (8.0° (SD 11)) than men (1.5° (SD 10)). INTERPRETATION Postoperative stem antetorsion shows a high variability and is gender-related. We suggest precise assessment of stem antetorsion intraoperatively by means of computer navigation, preparing the femur first. In abnormal stem antetorsion, the cup position can be adjusted using a combined anteversion concept; alternatively, modular femoral components or stems with retroverted or anteverted necks ("retrostem") could be used.

Abstract
We present the 10- to 17-year results of 112 computer-assisted design computer-assisted manufacture femoral components. The total hip replacements were performed between 1992 and 1998 in 111 patients, comprising 53 men and 58 women. Their mean age was 46.2 years (24.6 to 62.2) with a mean follow-up of 13 years (10 to 17). The mean Harris Hip Score improved from 42.4 (7 to 99) to 90.3 (38 to 100), the mean Oxford Hip Score from 43.1 (12 to 59) to 18.2 (12 to 51) and the mean Western Ontario MacMasters University Osteoarthritis Index score from 57.0 (7 to 96) to 11.9 (0 to 85). There was one revision due to failure of the acetabular component but no failures of the femoral component. There were no revisions for aseptic loosening. The worst-case survival in this cohort of custom femoral components at 13.2 years follow-up was 98.2% (95% confidence interval 95 to 99). Overall survival of this series of total hip replacements was 97.3% (95% confidence interval 95 to 99). These results are comparable with the best medium- to long-term results for femoral components used in primary total hip replacement with any means of fixation.

Abstract
A number of patients have anatomic or physiologic variations that may adversely affect the performance of a primary total hip arthroplasty. Various technologies have been utilized in an attempt to improve the outcomes for these patients; however, some of these potential solutions are controversial. The authors examined the complete body of literature for scientific evidence regarding the use of these new technologies. The anatomic and physiologic anomalies that were studied include extra-articular deformities, developmental dysplasia, Perthes disease, Type C femoral bone, acetabular bone deficiency, femoral rotational abnormalities, variations that increase the risk of hip dislocation, sickle cell anemia, and extremely small or large bone sizes. This article presents the current scientific evidence and imparts an unbiased view of the use of various technologies to provide individualized solutions for patients who have anatomic or physiologic variations.
