RESUMO
Objective:To prospectively analyze the early clinical effects of 3D-printed porous metal cup with hip dual-mobility revision (HDR) system in treating severe acetabular bone defects.Methods:A total of 17 patients with severe acetabular defects (15 patients in Allan-Gross type 4 and 2 patients in type 5; 2 patients in Paprosky type 2B, 4 patients in type 3A and 11 patients in type 3B) who underwent revision hip arthroplasty between July 2019 and May 2020 were analyzed. There were 7 males and 10 females (mean age 67.3±9.3 years; range 42-80 years). The average body mass index was 22.2±3.8 kg/m 2 (range 17.7-33.3 kg/m 2). The preoperative mean leg length discrepancy (LLD) was 42.9±31.1 mm (range 10-160 mm) . One patient presented positive Trendelenburg sign. The follow-up duration was 12.1±3.0 months (range 6-16 months). The clinical and radiographic hip scores in all patients were evaluated. Results:The mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) was 31.2±11.3 points at preoperatively, 63.5±10.0, 68.7±10.4 and 70.2±10.1 points at 3 days, 7 days and 1 month postoperatively. At the latest follow-up, HHS was increased to 81.6±7.0 points. The outer cup mean abduction angle was 48.1°±10.6° and the mean inclination angle was 10.8°±6.0° postoperatively. The inner cup mean abduction angle was 45.0°±6.2° and the mean inclination angle was 10.8°±3.7°. The mean LLD decreased to 11.1±3.8 mm (range: 0-15 mm) after surgery. At the latest follow-up, all acetabular components were radiologically stable without displacement. No osteolysis or absorption was observed. There was no infection, loosening or nerve injury in all cases.Conclusion:During short-term follow-up, the 3D-printed porous metal HDR system can effectively enhance the stability of implants with satisfied quality of life. It can provide a good result for the revision of total hip arthroplasty with severe acetabular defects.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Surgical treatment for pigmented vil onodular synovitis can maximize the excision of synovial lesions and recovery of joint function. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the knee joint function and relapse rate fol owing treatment of pigmented vil onodular synovitis with total knee replacement and arthroscopic synovectomy. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed 34 cases of knee pigmented vil onodular synovitis admitted for surgical treatment in the Department of Orthopedics, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, China from December 2006 to December 2011. In these cases, 24 patients received arthroscopic synovectomy and 10 patients were subjected to total knee replacement. Adjuvant radiotherapy was conducted according to postoperative patient’s conditions. Lysholm scoring was employed in the arthroscopic synovectomy group, and American Knee Society scoring was used in the total knee replacement group. Knee function in two groups was compared before and after treatment. Fol ow-up observation was performed to compare knee function recovery and relapse rate between two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Thirty-four patients were effectively fol owed up for 12-66 months, mean 41.3 months. Statistical analysis showed that in the arthroscopic synovectomy group, the postoperative Lysholm score was (86.3± 10.3) points, significantly higher than the preoperative score which was (55.5±13.2) points (t=3.81, P=0.016, P<0.05). In the total knee arthroplasty group, the American Knee Society score was increased from (40.7±2.2) points preoperatively to (90.2±1.1) points postoperatively (t=6.27, P<0.01). In the arthroscopic synovectomy group, the American Knee Society score was increased from (34.2±3.9) points preoperatively to (80.8±1.9) points postoperatively (t=16.58, P<0.01). Arthroscopic synovectomy combined with adjuvant radiotherapy can achieve better outcomes in pigmented vil onodular synovitis patients, while the total knee replacement for advanced with advanced knee diffuse pigmented vil onodular synovitis is better to restore knee function and the recurrence rate is low.
