The aim of this study was to estimate the clinical and economic burden of dislocation following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in England. This retrospective evaluation used data from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink database. Patients were eligible if they underwent a primary THA (index date) and had medical records available 90 days pre-index and 180 days post-index. Bilateral THAs were excluded. Healthcare costs and resource use were evaluated over two years. Changes (pre- vs post-THA) in generic quality of life (QoL) and joint-specific disability were evaluated. Propensity score matching controlled for baseline differences between patients with and without THA dislocation.Aims
Methods
Dislocation of the hip remains a major complication after periacetabular tumour resection and endoprosthetic reconstruction. The position of the acetabular component is an important modifiable factor for surgeons in determining the risk of postoperative dislocation. We investigated the significance of horizontal, vertical, and sagittal displacement of the hip centre of rotation (COR) on postoperative dislocation using a CT-based 3D model, as well as other potential risk factors for dislocation. A total of 122 patients who underwent reconstruction following resection of periacetabular tumour between January 2011 and January 2020 were studied. The risk factors for dislocation were investigated with univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis on patient-specific, resection-specific, and reconstruction-specific variables.Aims

Background. Dislocation is a common complication following total hip arthroplasty (THA), and accounts for a high percentage of subsequent revisions. The purpose of this study was to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to identify patients at high risk for dislocation based on postoperative anteroposterior (AP) pelvis radiographs. Methods. We retrospectively evaluated radiographs for a cohort of 13,970 primary THAs with 374 dislocations over 5 years of follow-up. Overall, 1,490 radiographs from dislocated and 91,094 from non-dislocated THAs were included in the analysis. A CNN object detection model (YOLO-V3) was trained to crop the images by centering on the femoral head. A ResNet18 classifier was trained to predict subsequent

Introduction & Objective. Labral refixation has established as a standard in open or arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The rationale for this refixation is to maintain the important suction seal in the hip. To date, only few short-term results are available which indicate a superior result in FAI hips with labral refixation compared to labral resection. Scientific evidence of a beneficial effect of labral refixation in the long-term follow-up is lacking. Aim of this study was to evaluate if labral refixation can improve the cumulative 10-year survivorship in hips undergoing surgical

The migration percentage (MP) is one criterion used for surgery in dislocated or displaced hips in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The MP at which a displaced hip can no longer return to normal is unclear. The aim of this paper was to identify the point of no return of the MP through a large population-based study. All children registered on the Cerebral Palsy Integrated Pathway Scotland surveillance programme undergo regular pelvic radiographs. Any child who had a MP measuring over 35% since the programme’s inception in 2013, in at least one hip and at one timepoint, was identified. The national radiography database was then interrogated to identify all pelvic radiographs for each of these children from birth through to the date of analysis. A minimum of a further two available radiographs following the initial measurement of MP ≥ 35% was required for inclusion.Aims

Management of the young adult hip pathologies is a special entity in orthopaedic surgical practice that needs special emphasis and consideration. A wide range of pathological and traumatic conditions occur in the young adult hip that lead to functional disability and the development of premature osteoarthritis. Proper surgical interference when the hip is still in the pre-arthritic stage restores function to the young hip and protects it from early degenerative changes, and hence the anticipated need for future joint replacement surgery is prevented. Accurate estimation of the biomechanical error combined with careful understanding of the hip joint biology is the cornerstone of success of any hip preservation surgery ever performed to save the young adult hip. Safe surgical

Background. Habitual hip subluxation and dislocation is a potentially disabling feature of Trisomy 21. We describe long-term outcomes following precise use of the femoral varus derotation osteotomy to achieve and maintain hip stability and community ambulation. Methods. All individuals with Trisomy 21, who had hip surgery at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children between 1998 and 2008, were searched using the hospital databases. 16 hips in 9 children aged less than 10 years, were identified. All had a femoral varus derotation osteotomy (VDRO) with a target femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) of 105° and less than 20° external rotation. All were performed by the senior author JHW. The clinical notes and radiographs were reviewed from presentation to final follow up. Continuous variables were assessed for normality with the d'Agostino Pearson test. Normally distributed variables are presented as means with 95% confidence intervals. Pre and postoperative means were compared using the student's t-test for paired samples. Results.

Literature surrounding artificial intelligence (AI)-related applications for hip and knee arthroplasty has proliferated. However, meaningful advances that fundamentally transform the practice and delivery of joint arthroplasty are yet to be realized, despite the broad range of applications as we continue to search for meaningful and appropriate use of AI. AI literature in hip and knee arthroplasty between 2018 and 2021 regarding image-based analyses, value-based care, remote patient monitoring, and augmented reality was reviewed. Concerns surrounding meaningful use and appropriate methodological approaches of AI in joint arthroplasty research are summarized. Of the 233 AI-related orthopaedics articles published, 178 (76%) constituted original research, while the rest consisted of editorials or reviews. A total of 52% of original AI-related research concerns hip and knee arthroplasty (n = 92), and a narrative review is described. Three studies were externally validated. Pitfalls surrounding present-day research include conflating vernacular (“AI/machine learning”), repackaging limited registry data, prematurely releasing internally validated prediction models, appraising model architecture instead of inputted data, withholding code, and evaluating studies using antiquated regression-based guidelines. While AI has been applied to a variety of hip and knee arthroplasty applications with limited clinical impact, the future remains promising if the question is meaningful, the methodology is rigorous and transparent, the data are rich, and the model is externally validated. Simple checkpoints for meaningful AI adoption include ensuring applications focus on: administrative support over clinical evaluation and management; necessity of the advanced model; and the novelty of the question being answered.

Introduction: The open treatment of hip impingement is now a well-recognised technique with numerous publications about pathogenesis and surgical technique. There are very few publications of very small series discussing surgical results. We present the results of 148 hips at a mean follow-up of 20 months (range 4 – 55). Methods: This is a two surgeon series of sequential patients including the early learning curve. Patients were treated for impingement through a Ganz trochanteric osteotomy and open surgical
In elderly patients with osteoarthritis and protrusio who require arthroplasty, dislocation of the hip is difficult due to migration of the femoral head. Traditionally, neck osteotomy is performed in situ, so this is not always achieved. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to describe a partial resection of the posterior wall in severe protrusio. This is a descriptive observational study, which describes the surgical technique of the partial resection of the posterior wall during hip arthroplasty in patients with severe acetabular protrusio operated on between January 2007 and February 2017.Aims
