Comparison of 3 Pediatric Pelvic Osteotomies for Acetabular Dysplasia Using Patient-specific 3D-printed Models.
Journal of Pediatric Orthopedics 2019 March
BACKGROUND: Children with developmental dysplasia of the hip may require a pelvic osteotomy to treat acetabular dysplasia. Three osteotomies are commonly performed in these patients (Pemberton, Dega, and San Diego), though comparative studies of each are limited. The purpose of this study was to compare changes in acetabular morphology (acetabular version, volume, and octant coverage angles) created by these 3 osteotomies using matched patient-specific 3D-printed pelvic models.
METHODS: Fourteen patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip and preoperative computed tomography (CT) imaging were retrospectively included. For each patient CT, bone and cartilage tissues were independently segmented, and 3 identical pelvises were 3D-printed using a dual material printer. Bone was printed with rigid material and cartilage with flexible material to simulate the flexibility of the triradiate cartilage and pubic symphysis. Pemberton, Dega, and San Diego acetabular osteotomies were performed on the triplicate set of 3D prints. Acetabular version, volume, and octant coverage angles (posterior, superior-posterior, superior, superior-anterior, and anterior) were determined before and after each mock surgery by morphologic assessment using preoperative and postoperative CT images.
RESULTS: San Diego osteotomy yielded a small increase (+3.34±1.71 degrees) in version, compared with decreases with Pemberton (-5.47±1.54 degrees) and Dega (-8.57±1.21 degrees, P<0.05). Acetabular volume decreased similarly for Pemberton (-13.36%±2.88%), Dega (-19.21%±2.73%), and San Diego (-19.29%±2.44%; P=0.215) osteotomies. San Diego osteotomy tended to have a larger postoperative increase in the posterior regions, and the Dega and Pemberton osteotomies tended to have larger postoperative increases in the anterior coverage regions.
CONCLUSIONS: Quantifiable differences were identified in acetabular octant coverage angles and version between the 3 pelvic osteotomies. San Diego osteotomy increased acetabular coverage posteriorly resulting in acetabular anteversion, whereas Pemberton and Dega had greater superior-anterior coverage resulting in relative acetabular retroversion. This study is the first known to utilize 3D-printed models for comparison of surgical approaches in pediatric pelvic osteotomies.
