Aseptic Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty Through an Anterior Approach: Survivorship and Risk Factors for Re-Revision.
Journal of Arthroplasty 2024 April 11
BACKGROUND: The utilization of anterior-based approaches for total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasing. Literature on the outcomes of revision THA (rTHA) through an anterior approach, however, is sparse. This study reports the survivorship and risk factors for re-revision in patients undergoing aseptic rTHA through an anterior approach.
METHODS: This was a single-institution, retrospective cohort analysis of patients who underwent aseptic rTHA through an anterior approach (direct anterior [DA], anterior-based muscle sparing [ABMS]) from January 2017 to December 2021, regardless of the original surgical approach. Exclusion criteria were age < 18 years, conversion THA, and septic revisions. Patient demographics, complications, and postoperative outcomes were collected. Kaplan Meier curves were used to measure survivorship while Cox regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for re-revision of THA.
RESULTS: We identified 251 total anterior rTHAs, of which 155 were aseptic anterior revisions. There were 111 patients (111 rTHAs; 63 ABMS, 48 DA) who met criteria and had a mean follow-up of 4.2 years (range, 2.1 to 6.9). There were a total of 54 (49%) anterior-based-index approaches and 57 (51%) posterior-index approaches. The most common indications for rTHA were femoral loosening (n = 25, 22.5%), followed by instability (n = 16, 14.4%), and wear/osteolysis (n = 16, 14.4%). At 2 years, the survivorship from re-operation and re-revision was 89% (95% CI [confidence interval]: 84 to 95) and 91% (95% CI: 86 to 96), respectively. Re-operation occurred in 14 patients (12.6%) at a mean time of 7.8 months (range, 0.5 to 28.6). Re-revision occurred in 12 patients (10.8%) at a mean time of 7.3 months (range, 0.5 to 28.6). Instability was the most common reason for re-revision (4.5%). Neither index approach type, revision approach type, nor any patient-specific risk factors were identified as predictors of re-revision or re-operation in multivariable regression analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates an acceptable rate of re-revision when aseptic rTHA is performed through an anterior approach, with the most common reason for aseptic re-revision being instability.
