ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Frequently, patients with hip complaints also report lower back pain, and elective surgery may be indicated due to end-stage hip osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease. Thus, we aim to answer the question of whether total hip arthroplasty (THA) or lumbar spine surgery should be performed first in patients with hip-spine-syndrome, from an arthroplasty surgeon's point of view. DECISION-MAKING: The present review demonstrates that in patients with an acute neurological deficit, lumbar spine surgery should be performed first. However, in patients without these symptoms, several arguments favour performing THA first, especially the increased risk of dislocation when performing THA after lumbar spine fusion (LSF) in comparison to "THA first" (4.6 vs. 1.7% after 2 years; p < 0,001). However, the risk of dislocation after THA remains increased in both scenarios, independent of surgical order. Consequently, arthroplasty surgeons should pay great attention to optimum component positioning, reconstruction of the hip anatomy, leg length and soft-tissue tension, while considering using large prosthesis heads or dual mobility cups when performing primary THA in patients with an increased risk of dislocation. In complex cases, we would encourage arthroplasty and spine surgeons working in cooperation on highly individual treatment concepts.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the three-dimensional anatomy and shape of the proximal femur, comparing patients with secondary osteoarthritis (OA) due to mild developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and primary hip OA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective radiographic computed tomography (CT)-based study investigated proximal femoral anatomy in a consecutive series of 84 patients with secondary hip OA due to mild DDH (Crowe type I&II/Hartofilakidis A) compared to 84 patients with primary hip OA, matched for gender, age at surgery, and body mass index. RESULTS: Men with DDH showed higher neck shaft angles (127±5° vs. 123±4°; p<0.001), whereas women with DDH had a larger femoral head diameter (46±4 vs. 44±3 mm; p=0.002), smaller femoral offset (36±5 vs. 40±4 mm; p<0.001), decreased leg torsion (25±13° vs. 31±16°; p=0.037), and a higher neck shaft angle (128±7° vs. 123±4°; p<0.001) compared to primary OA patients. Similar patterns of the three-dimensional endosteal canal shape of the proximal femur, but a high inter-individual variability for femoral canal torsion at the meta-diaphyseal level were found for DDH and primary OA patients. CONCLUSION: Standard cementless stem designs are suitable to treat patients with secondary hip OA due to mild DDH; however, high patient variability and subtle anatomical differences in the proximal femur should be respected.

ABSTRACT

AIMS: This study of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip aimed to: 1) characterize the contribution of the hip, spinopelvic complex, and lumbar spine when moving from the standing to the sitting position; 2) assess whether abnormal spinopelvic mobility is associated with worse symptoms; and 3) identify whether spinopelvic mobility can be predicted from static anatomical radiological parameters. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 122 patients with end-stage OA of the hip awaiting total hip arthroplasty (THA) were prospectively studied. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs; Oxford Hip Score, Oswestry Disability Index, and Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey Score) and clinical data were collected. Sagittal spinopelvic mobility was calculated as the change from the standing to sitting position using the lumbar lordosis angle (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT), pelvic-femoral angle (PFA), and acetabular anteinclination (AI) from lateral radiographs. The interaction of the different parameters was assessed. PROMs were compared between patients with normal spinopelvic mobility (10° ≤ ∆PT ≤ 30°) or abnormal spinopelvic mobility (stiff: ∆PT < ± 10°; hypermobile: ∆PT > ± 30°). Multiple regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were used to test for possible predictors of spinopelvic mobility. RESULTS: Standing to sitting, the hip flexed by a mean of 57° (sd 17°), the pelvis tilted backwards by a mean of 20° (sd 12°), and the lumbar spine flexed by a mean of 20° (sd 14°); strong correlations were detected. There was no difference in PROMs between patients in the different spinopelvic mobility groups. Maximum hip flexion, standing PT, and standing AI were independent predictors of spinopelvic mobility (R2 = 0.42). The combined thresholds for standing was PT ≥ 13° and hip flexion ≥ 88° in the clinical examination, and had 90% sensitivity and 63% specificity of predicting spinopelvic stiffness, while SS ≥ 42° had 84% sensitivity and 67% specificity of predicting spinopelvic hypermobility. CONCLUSION: The hip, on average, accounts for three-quarters of the standing-to-sitting movement, but there is great variation. Abnormal spinopelvic mobility cannot be screened with PROMs. However, clinical and standing radiological features can predict spinopelvic mobility with good enough accuracy, allowing them to be used as reliable screening tools.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: In the light of the increasingly aging population and the widespread understanding of the sagittal profile of symptomatic patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD), pervasive utilization of osteotomies on the vertebral column should be expected. These surgeries are accompanied with relatively high complication rates. However, there is no uniform definition or classification in terms of grading the severity or chronological incidence of complications after ASD surgery. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this work is to give an overview of the different classifications described in the literature hitherto and to propose a standardized, clinically utile classification of complications after ASD surgery. Finally, the aim is to illustrate this classification using two case examples. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a systematic PubMed search with the keywords: "adult spinal deformity", "surgery", "complications" and "classification". Results were screened by title, abstract and full-text article. RESULTS: 22 articles were included in this review. Regarding the systematic classification of the severity of a complication, the CTCAE classification (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0) is a validated and well-established severity stratification tool used in oncologic treatment. Regarding chronological occurrence, complications can be categorized into three phases: intra-operative, peri-operative and post-operative. DISCUSSION: The time of occurrence of a certain complication and its severity should constitute the cornerstones of a standardized and practical classification of complications after ASD surgery. To enable uniform reporting and coherent documentation of complications, spine surgeons should find consensus on a standardized classification. Future work needs to be directed towards defining and conducting an individual pre-operative risk stratification of adult spine deformity surgical candidates leading to a possible mitigation of surgery-related complications.

ABSTRACT

The present retrospective cohort study was conducted to compare sporting activity levels before and a minimum of 10 years after primary cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA). A consecutive series of 86 patients with a mean age at surgery of 52 years (range, 21-60 years) was evaluated 11 years after surgery (range, 10-12 years). Pre- and post-operative sporting activities were assessed at routine follow-up using the University of California, Los Angeles activity score and the Schulthess Clinic sports and activity questionnaire. Post-operative health-related quality of life was measured using the Short-Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire and compared with age-matched reference populations from the SF-36 database. Eleven years after THA, 89% of preoperatively active patients had returned to sport. Comparing sports activity preoperatively (before the onset of symptoms) and 11 years after THA, no significant difference was found for the mean number of disciplines or session length. A significant decline in high-impact activities was observed, while participation in low-impact activities significantly increased. Health-related quality of life compared well against a healthy age-matched reference population and was significantly higher than in a reference group of patients with osteoarthritis. The majority of patients were able to maintain their physical activity level in the long term after primary cementless THA, compared with the activity level before the onset of restricting osteoarthritis symptoms. However, a change in disciplines toward low-impact activities was observed.
