The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous tenotomy of the iliopsoas tendon with the aid of ultrasound in cadavers.

An anatomical and descriptive study of the technique of percutaneous tenotomy of the iliopsoas tendon guided by ultrasound and to share our experience in performing it and its reproducibility in clinical practice.

Out of 20 tenotomies, 17 were total, performed at the level of the superior border of the acetabulum. Three tenotomies were partial, with more than 75% of the tendon being sectioned in all three. During one of the tenotomies, there was a partial injury to the femoral nerve. Measurements were made of the distance between the site where the blade was inserted and the femoral nerve, a noble structure that would be at greater risk during the procedure, with an average distance of 8.4 millimeters.

Ultrasound-guided iliopsoas tendon release procedures have the ability to be performed in a cadaveric model, consistently achieving complete tendon release, except in cases of obesity, with minimal repercussions on adjacent structures, and require approximately 4 minutes to complete.

Introduction

One of the most common complications of ceramic on ceramic hip replacement is squeaking. The association of Accolade stem and Trident acetabular system has been reported to have squeaking incidence of up to 35,6%. There is doubt if this phenomenon occurs due to: the stem titanium alloy, the V40 femoral neck, the recessed liner of the trident cup or even the mal-seating of the trident insert on the cup.

Objectives

Primary: The purpose of the present study was to determine the incidence of squeaking in association with the use of Exeter stem and Trident ceramic acetabular system. Secondary: Analysis of the correlation of the cup abduction angle and squeaking.
