Abstract
BACKGROUND Pseudotumors and muscle atrophy have been associated with metal-on-metal (MoM) resurfacing hip arthroplasty (RHA). We aimed to investigate the influence of the anterolateral (AntLat) and the posterior (Post) surgical approach on the location, grade and prevalence of pseudotumors and muscle atrophy in MoM RHA. PATIENTS AND METHODS Forty-nine patients were randomized to MoM RHA by the AntLat (n = 25) or the Post (n = 24) approach at Aarhus University Hospital. Patients underwent metal artifact reduction sequence (MARS) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans for investigation of location, grade and prevalence of pseudotumors and muscle atrophy. Plain radiographs, metal-ions concentrations and clinical outcome scores were evaluated to compare outcomes of the surgical approaches. RESULTS MRI-detected pseudotumors were seen in 7 of 18 patients (39%) in the AntLat group and in 12 of 22 patients (55%) in the Post group (p = 0.33). Pseudotumors were mainly located anterolaterally to the hip joint in the AntLat group and postero-lateral to the hip joint in the Post group. Higher grades of muscle atrophy of the caudal part of the gluteus medius and minimus (p < 0.004) were seen in the AntLat group, and higher grades of muscle atrophy of the small external rotators were seen in the Post group (p < 0.001). The AntLat group had higher anteversion angles of mean 15.3° (range 6.1-7.5) versus mean 11.5° (range 4.9-22.5) in the Post group (p = 0.02). Metal-ion concentrations and clinical outcome scores were similar between groups (p > 0.08). CONCLUSION Muscle atrophy and pseudotumor location after MoM RHA follow the surgical approach used for implantation. This knowledge may help differentiate between "normal postoperative appearance" and "MoM disease."

Skeletal Radiol 2023; 52:47-55. [PMID: 35896734 PMCID: PMC10091062 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-022-04132-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 05/31/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gluteal muscle quality influences risk of falling and mobility limitation. We sought (1) to compare gluteal muscle fatty infiltration (FI) between groups of older women with urinary incontinence (UI) at risk for falling (at-risk group) and not at risk for falling (not-at-risk group), and (2) to determine correlation of gluteal FI with Timed Up and Go (TUG) and Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) performance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective pilot study of gluteal FI on pelvis MRI for 19 women with UI, aged ≥ 70 years. A musculoskeletal radiologist selected axial T1-weighted MR images; then, two blinded medical student research assistants analyzed gluteal FI by quantitative fuzzy C-means segmentation. TUG and SPPB tests were performed. TUG ≥ 12 s defined participants as at risk for falling. Descriptive, correlation, and reliability analyses were performed. RESULTS Mean age, 76.3 ± 4.8 years; no difference for age or body mass index (BMI) between the at-risk (n = 5) versus not-at-risk (n = 14) groups. SPPB score (p = 0.013) was lower for the at-risk group (6.4 ± 3.1) than for the not-at-risk group (10.2 ± 1.9). Fuzzy C-means FI-%-estimate differed between the at-risk group and the not-at-risk group for bilateral gluteus medius/minimus (33.2% ± 15.6% versus 19.5% ± 4.1%, p = 0.037) and bilateral gluteus maximus (33.6% ± 15.6% versus 19.7% ± 6.9%, p = 0.047). Fuzzy C-means FI-%-estimate for bilateral gluteus maximus had significant (p < 0.050) moderate correlation with age (rho = - 0.64), BMI (rho = 0.65), and TUG performance (rho = 0.52). Fuzzy C-means FI-%-estimates showed excellent inter-observer and intra-observer reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient, ≥ 0.892). CONCLUSION Older women with UI at risk for falling have greater levels of gluteal FI and mobility limitation as compared to those not at risk for falling.

Towards defining muscular regions of interest from axial magnetic resonance imaging with anatomical cross-reference: a scoping review of lateral hip musculature. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:533. [PMID: 35658932 PMCID: PMC9166386 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-05439-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Measures of hip muscle morphology and composition (e.g., muscle size and fatty infiltration) are possible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Standardised protocols or guidelines do not exist for evaluation of hip muscle characteristics, hindering reliable and valid inter-study analysis. This scoping review aimed to collate and synthesise MRI methods for measuring lateral hip muscle size and fatty infiltration to inform the future development of standardised protocols. Methods Five electronic databases (Medline, CINAHL, Embase, SportsDISCUS and AMED) were searched. Healthy or musculoskeletal pain populations that used MRI to assess lateral hip muscle size and fatty infiltration were included. Lateral hip muscles of interest included tensor fascia late (TFL), gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus. Data on MRI parameters, axial slice location, muscle size and fatty infiltrate measures were collected and analysed. Cross referencing for anatomical locations were made between MRI axial slice and E-12 anatomical plastinate sections. Results From 2684 identified publications, 78 studies contributed data on volume (n = 31), cross sectional area (CSA) (n = 24), and fatty infiltration (n = 40). Heterogeneity was observed for MRI parameters and anatomical boundaries scrutinizing hip muscle size and fatty infiltration. Seven single level axial slices were identified that provided consistent CSA measurement, including three for both gluteus maximus and TFL, and four for both gluteus medius and minimus. For assessment of fatty infiltration, six axial slice locations were identified including two for TFL, and four for each of the gluteal muscles. Conclusions Several consistent anatomical levels were identified for single axial MR slice to facilitate muscle size and fatty infiltration muscle measures at the hip, providing the basis for reliable and accurate data synthesis and improvements in the validity of future between studies analyses. This work establishes the platform for standardised methods for the MRI assessment of lateral hip musculature and will aid in the examination of musculoskeletal conditions around the hip joint. Further studies into whole muscle measures are required to further optimise methodological parameters for hip muscle assessment.

Pseudotumor in metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty: a comparison study of three grading systems with MRI. Skeletal Radiol 2018; 47:1099-1109. [PMID: 29388037 PMCID: PMC6003970 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-018-2873-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [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: 04/05/2017] [Revised: 12/09/2017] [Accepted: 01/02/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pseudotumors, a well-known complication of metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (MoM THA), are well identified on metal artifact-reducing sequences magnetic resonance imaging (MARS-MRI). Several MRI grading systems are described in the orthopedic literature, but their validity is unknown in large clinical studies. Our study was undertaken to describe the classification of pseudotumors in a preselected cohort divided into high- and low-risk patients, using three pseudotumor grading systems applied on MARS-MRI, and to determine the interobserver reliability of the grading systems. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed on 377 consecutive patients (240 MRI scans) treated with an M2a-38 and Taperloc stem combination (Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA). Patients were divided into a high-risk and a low-risk group based on previous published risk factors. Two observers determined the presence of pseudotumors using three different pseudotumor grading systems for classifying MARS-MRI results. RESULTS The prevalence of pseudotumors as determined with MARS-MRI was 59% in our high-risk group, 0% in the low-risk group and 43% in the control group. Serum cobalt values were increased in the high-risk group. The kappa values of the Anderson, Hauptfleisch and Matthies grading system scores were 0.43, 0.44, and 0.49 respectively. CONCLUSIONS High-risk patients are at a high risk for pseudotumor development. No pseudotumor development was found in low-risk patients. Interobserver reliability scored best with the Matthies system, but all three grading systems showed only a moderate agreement.

Abstract
At the beginning of the 21st century, use of large-diameter, metal-on-metal devices was a popular procedure for hip replacement in young and physically active patients; however, within a few years, the number of revisions increased, resulting in a worldwide recall for the articular surface replacement (ASR) system. Complication rates for the ASR devices implanted at the authors' department are reported, with revision rates of 32% and 30% in the ASR XL Head and ASR Resurfacing groups, respectively. Reasons for revision surgery were serum metal ion elevation, luxation or subluxation, aseptic loosening, soft tissue compromise (adverse reactions to metal debris [ARMD]), and infection. The calculated implant survival for the ASR XL Head system and the ASR Resurfacing device (DePuy Orthopaedics Inc, Warsaw, Indiana) in the current series was 79% and 90%, respectively, at 60 months. Symptomatic patients with metal-on-metal devices, with or without elevated metal ion concentrations, should undergo cross sectional imaging to exclude ARMD. In cases of increased metal ion concentrations, local pain, or ARMD, revision surgery has to be evaluated. In the future, closer monitoring of new implants is needed to prevent high failure rates, as seen with the ASR design. Furthermore, the withdrawal of the device highlights the importance of national implant registries. [Orthopedics. 2017; 40(2):e340-e347.].
