Objective

To investigate the biomechanical mechanism and report preliminary clinical efficacy of eccentric rotational acetabular osteotomy (ERAO) when conduct treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).

Methods

Biomechanical model of the hip joint was established on six female cadaveric hips embalmed by formalin and stimulate ERAO was then performed on the model. Vertical force was loaded on the cadaveric spine from 0 N to 500 N and strain value on femoral head was measured preoperatively and postoperatively when loading force on spine reached the point of 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 N. Stress value were then calculated base on the measurements. Besides, we reported postoperative follow up cases which were underwent ERAO to treat DDH in our hospital from July 2007 to October 2014. A total of 25 patients (26 hips) were reported, including 6 males and 19 females. Age varies from 11 to 57 years old, and the average age was 31 years old. Postoperative hip function was evaluated by Harris hip score and anteroposterior X⁃ray of pelvic was taken preoperatively and postoperatively to measure the Acetabular⁃head index (AHI), CE angle and Sharp angle.

Objective

To investigate the biomechanical basis and report preliminary clinical efficacy of eccentric rotational acetabular osteotomy (ERAO) when treating developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).

Methods

Biomechanical model of the hip joint was established on cadaveric hips. After performed ERAO on the biomechanical model, we explored the impact of this surgery on biomechanics of the hip joint. Meanwhile, we reported postoperative follow-up cases who underwent ERAO in our hospital between November 2007 to July 2012. A total of 14 patients (15 hips) were reported, including 4 males and 10 females, mean age was 30 years old. Harris hip score was defined as clinical evaluation standard and radiographic assessment was based on the measurement and further comparison of pre- and post-operative AHI (Acetabular-head index), CE angle (Center-edge angle) and Sharp angle.

Implant-related infection (IRI) is closely related to the local immunity of peri-implant tissues. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in activated macrophages plays a prominent role in the innate immune response. In previous studies, we indicated that implant wear particles promote endotoxin tolerance by decreasing the release of proinflammatory cytokines. However, it is unclear whether ROS are involved in the damage of the local immunity of peri-implant tissues. In the present study, we assessed the mechanism of local immunosuppression using titanium (Ti) particles and/or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to stimulate RAW 264.7 cells. The results indicate that the Ti particles induced the generation of a moderate amount of ROS through nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase-1 (NOX-1), but not through catalase. Pre-exposure to Ti particles inhibited ROS generation and extracellular regulated protein kinase (ERK) activation in LPS-stimulated macrophages. These findings indicate that chronic stimulation by Ti particles may lead to a state of oxidative stress and persistent inflammation, which may result in the attenuation of the immune response of macrophages to bacterial components such as LPS. Eventually, immunosuppression develops in peri-implant tissues, which may be a risk factor for IRI.
