Hip dislocation

OBJECTIVE: To explore the short-term effectiveness of hip revision surgery guided by artificial intelligence preoperative planning (AIHIP) system. METHODS: The clinical data of 22 patients (23 hips) who were admitted between June 2019 and March 2023 and met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. There were 12 males and 10 females with an average age of 69.7 years (range, 44-90 years). There were 19 hips in the first revision, 3 hips in the second revision, and 1 hip in the third revision...

INTRODUCTION: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) for dislocated hips (Crowe IV dysplasia) presents unique challenges. Conventional approaches involve subtrochanteric osteotomies, but are complex with additional fixation and potentially lead to limb-length discrepancies, nerve palsies, and other complications. An alternative strategy is a staged approach, where the femoral head (or remnant) is gradually lowered (distraction technique) to align with the true acetabulum over a period of time, followed by a second-stage anatomically acetabular-positioned THA...

Hip dislocation is one of the leading causes of failure and revision surgery for total hip arthroplasty. To reduce dislocation rates, lipped liners have been designed with an elevated portion of the rim, to increase jump distance and maintain greater contact area. While it has been documented that lipped liners help reduce dislocation, the objective of this study is to investigate whether lipped liners also help reduce smaller instances of hip micromotion, separation, and edge loading. This study uses an advanced three-dimensional preoperative planning tool to analyze 10 patients, each implanted with both a neutral and lipped liner...

IMPORTANCE: Delayed diagnosis of a dislocated hip in infants can lead to complex childhood surgery, interruption to family life, and premature osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of clinical examination in identifying dislocated hips in infants. DATA SOURCES: Systematic search of CINAHL, Embase, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library from the inception of each database until October 31, 2023. STUDY SELECTION: The 9 included studies reported the diagnostic accuracy of the clinical examination (index test) in infants aged 3 months or younger and a diagnostic hip ultrasound (reference test)...

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) presents varying degrees of femoral head dislocation, with severe cases leading to the formation of a new articular surface on the external side of the iliac bone-the neoacetabulum. Despite conventional understanding suggesting otherwise, a tissue resembling hyaline cartilage is found in the neoacetabulum and acetabulum of Crowe III and IV patients, indicating a potential for hyaline cartilage development without mechanical pressure. To test this theory, acetabular and femoral head cartilage obtained from patients with DDH was stained with hematoxylin-eosin and toluidine blue...

INTRODUCTION: Femoral neck fractures (FNF) in elderly patients are associated with major morbidity and mortality. The influence of postoperative discharge location on recovery and outcomes after arthroplasty for hip fractures is not well understood. METHODS: A multi-site retrospective cohort from nine academic centers identified patients who had FNF treated with hemiarthroplasty (HA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA) between 2010 and 2019. Patients who had diagnoses of dementia, stroke, age > 80 years, or high energy fracture were excluded...

BACKGROUND: Lumbar spinal fusion (LSF) is a risk factor for dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The effect of the surgical approach on this association has not been investigated. This study examined the association between approach and dislocation following THA in patients who had prior LSF. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 16,223 primary elective THAs at our institution from June 2011 to September 2022. Patients who had LSF prior to THA were identified using International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes...

PURPOSE: Despite the existence of guidelines for screening for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), there remains controversy regarding the need for routine ultrasound screening for DDH in patients with clubfoot due to an unclear correlation between the two conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine whether ultrasound screening for DDH in this population improved the diagnostic accuracy of DDH over standard assessment for patient risk factors and physical exam. METHODS: This is a retrospective cross-sectional review of infants diagnosed with idiopathic clubfoot who underwent hip ultrasounds to assess for DDH as identified by keyword search in an institutional radiological database at a tertiary care paediatric hospital...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy and safety of the LANCET robotic system, a robot arm assisted operation system for total hip arthroplasty via a multicenter clinical randomized controlled trial. METHODS: A total of 116 patients were randomized into two groups: LANCET robotic arm assisted THA group (N = 58) and the conventional THA group (N = 58). General information about the patients was collected preoperatively. Operational time and bleeding were recorded during the surgery...

BACKGROUND: Femoral neck is one of the high-risk areas for benign tumors and tumor-like lesions. Small range of lesions may also lead to pathological fracture, femoral head necrosis and other serious problems. PURPOSE: To investigate a new minimally invasive surgical approach to resect femoral head and neck lesions in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective study of 20 patients with femoral neck and femoral head lesions from February 2019 to March 2023 in our hospital...

Periprosthetic fractures (PPF) are related to orthopaedic implants like internal fixators, replacement devices, etc. In this case report, we discussed a 55-year-old male patient who came to our tertiary care hospital with complaints of pain and swelling over the left hip for six months. After radiological investigations, he was diagnosed with a left PPF of the femur with posterior dislocation. He was referred to the musculoskeletal physiotherapy department for in-patient rehabilitation before surgery. He received strengthening exercises for lower limb, back, and abdominal muscles, pain management, gait training, etc...

PURPOSE: The spine, hip, and knee are anatomically and biomechanically connected. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are commonly employed to treat degenerative changes in the hip and knee, while fusion is used for spine degeneration. Spine deformity correction results in changes in sagittal alignment and pelvic parameters, and patients with stiff spines have higher rates of THA dislocation and revision due to instability. The goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) in adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients at our institution...

UNLABELLED: Backgroumd: There have been few reports on the long-term survival of computed tomography (CT)-navigated total hip arthroplasty (THA), which should lead to a lower incidence of dislocation and loosening. In this study, we examined survivorship, dislocation, and loosening incidence using plain radiographs over a minimum 15-year follow-up after CT-navigated THA. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 145 consecutive CT-navigated THAs for >15 years. We surveyed the angles placed in both the acetabular and femoral components, survivorship, the occurrence of dislocation, the revision rate, and the fixation grade of the acetabular component...

BACKGROUND: Dislocation is a major complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The modular femoral neck system provides practical advantages by allowing adjustment of neck version and length in the presence of intraoperative instability. Anatomical studies have identified morphological differences in the hip joint between men and women. Despite sex-based differences in hip morphology, it remains unclear whether such differences affect neck selectivity in THA using a modular neck system and whether this approach achieves anatomical reconstruction, thereby reducing complications such as dislocation...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Hip dislocation remains a significant complication following total hip arthroplasty, even though its incidence has decreased. While closed reduction is typically performed for early dislocations, delayed or chronic dislocations often necessitate acetabular or femoral component revision. CASE PRESENTATION: This document describes the treatment of hip dislocation in a 56-year-old patient through pelvic osteotomy without component revision...

BACKGROUND: Growing evidence raises doubts about the need for routine hip precautions after primary total hip replacements to reduce the risk of postoperative dislocation. However, hip precautions are still routinely and widely prescribed in postoperative care in Switzerland. We aimed to investigate experts' clinical reasoning for hip precaution recommendations after total hip arthroplasty. METHODS: Using a convenience sampling strategy, 14 semi-structured expert interviews were conducted with surgeons, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists in the vicinity of an inpatient rehabilitation clinic in Switzerland...

PURPOSE: The patients with femoral metastasis in the inter- or subtrochanteric area could be treated with intramedullary nailing or prosthetic reconstruction, however, it is controversial which surgical treatment could offer less complications and implant failure. Our purpose was to define the risk of complications and implant survival in patients treated with intramedullary nailing or prosthetic reconstruction. METHODS: We analyzed studies reporting the risk of complications, reoperations and removal of the implant in patients treated with intramedullary nailing, hemiarthroplasty, arthroplasty or megaprosthesis...

Background Dual mobility bearings have gained attention in the prevention of instability in revision total hip replacement. This study aimed to evaluate the use of dual mobility bearings in revision total hip replacement. The primary outcome was the rate of dislocation. Secondary outcomes included the rate of re-operation for any reason, surgical complications, serious medical adverse events, and 90-day mortality rate. Methods A single-centre case series of 55 consecutive operations in 49 patients who underwent revision total hip replacement using dual mobility bearings with a minimum follow-up of three months was studied...

BACKGROUND: Shorter, metaphyseal-filling collared stems have become popular with the direct anterior approach (DAA), based on their ease of broaching and insertion through less invasive surgical exposures. To aid with the DAA, robotic-assisted technology provides three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance to accurately assess stem version. With other femoral stems, this has been shown to provide more accurate implant planning and improved patient outcomes...

Background Hip instability is a concern in pediatric cerebral palsy (CP) patients, with approximately one-third developing hip displacement. This may lead to pain, functional limitations, and decreased quality of life. Due to the progressive nature of hip displacement in CP, earlier surgical interventions may be beneficial. However, any shifts in practice to earlier surgical intervention, on a national scale, is not well described. The purpose of this study was to determine the recent trends in the surgical timing of hip interventions in children with CP...
