ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to identify the hitherto unknown incidence of congenital pseudarthrosis of the clavicle (CPC), based on a cohort of continuous livebirths born in our hospital, to review the literature and investigate if there is evidence supporting the published association between left-sided CPC and dextrocardia. From our electronic medical record and radiology databases, we identified all live births and patients with the diagnosis of CPC born from 2000 to 2016. We reviewed the imaging which included one or both clavicles to search for unrecorded CPC cases and reviewed all retrievable CPC publications listed in PubMed and publications quoted within these publications going back to 1910. We identified 87 407 livebirths of which 41 800 had radiological studies done, 14 885 showing one or both clavicles. We found five cases of CPC, two from the electronic database and three from our imaging review, giving an incidence of 1 of 17 481 livebirths. We identified 138 publications reporting paediatric and adult CPC cases and 12 review articles, including 429 patients (187 female; 159 male; 83 unknown) with 456 CPCs and a minimum of 24 additional patients from case reports for which we could not retrieve details. Two publications reported one case of left-sided CPC with dextrocardia, either not showing left/right marking or only showing the CPC with the aortic knob on the same side. We report the first CPC incidence of 0.0057%, provide the by far most inclusive CPC epidemiology based on 429 patients and could not find reliable proof that there has ever been a patient with left-sided CPC which was associated with dextrocardia.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Tapered femoral stems have become popular in revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA). Increasing the distal taper angle may mitigate subsidence. This study reports osseointegration of a new 3 degree distal taper revision stem at minimum 4 years post-operatively. METHODS: Indication for surgery, pre-operative bony deficiency and latest clinical, tribological and radiological follow-up were analysed. Radiographs were assessed by two blinded observers for preoperative femoral bone stock according to Paprosky, postoperative subsidence according to Callaghan and restoration of femoral bone stock over time according to Kolstad. Stem integration was determined using the Rodriguez classification. RESULTS: Twenty-three cases were analyzed at 5.9±1.0 years. All patients presented with Paprosky III defects. All stems met the criteria for osseointegration. Spot welds occurred distal to the proximal modular junction and at the tip. Two femora with severe proximal femoral bone loss recovered bone stock by final follow-up but two demonstrated stress shielding. No intraoperative fractures occurred. One stem subsided early but remained stable and osseointegrated at final follow up. There were no stem failures due to taper corrosion or modular junctional failure. CONCLUSIONS: This study reports good osseointegration and low subsidence with a novel fluted, 3-degree tapered femoral stem demonstrates at medium-term follow-up in cases with severe femoral bone deficiency.
