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

Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) and Hip Hemiarthroplasties (HA) are successful, cost-effective procedures that improve quality of life. Dislocation is a well recognised complication with a significant health and economic burden. We aim to establish the current management practices across the United Kingdom (UK) for Prosthetic Hip Dislocations (PHD). Our definition of a PHD includes; THA, HA and revision THA. This national study builds on our regional pilot study and records one of the largest datasets of Prosthetic

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

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
Methods
Between November 1997 and December 2000 we performed 27 total hip replacements in 22 patients with high congenital dislocation of the hip using porous tantalum monoblock acetabular components implanted in the true acetabular bed. Clinical and radiological evaluation was performed at regular intervals for a mean of 10.2 years (8.5 to 12). The mean Harris Hip Score improved from 48.3 (15 to 65) pre-operatively to 89.5 (56 to 100) at the final follow-up. The mean Oxford Hip Score was 49.5 (35 to 59) pre-operatively and decreased to 21.2 (12 to 48) at one year and 15.2 (10 to 28) at final follow-up. Migration of the acetabular component was assessed with the EBRA software system. There was a mean migration of 0.68 mm (0.49 to 0.8) in the first year and a mean 0.89 mm (0.6 to 0.98) in the second year, after excluding one initial excessive migration. No revision was necessary for any reason, no acetabular component became loose, and no radiolucent lines were observed at the final follow-up. The porous tantalum monoblock acetabular component is an implant offering adequate initial stability in conjunction with a modulus of elasticity and porosity close to that of cancellous bone. It favours bone ingrowth, leading to good mid-term results.
Open hip debridement surgery has been used for treatment of femoral acetabular impingement pain for over ten years in our unit. While literature has reported promising short term outcomes, longer term outcomes are more sparsely reported. We aim to assess survivorship and functional outcome at ten years, in patients who have undergone open hip debridement. All patients who had undergone open debridement surgery were identified on our database. The electronic, radiographic and paper records were reviewed. Demographic data, radiological and operative findings were recorded. All patients underwent ten year review with a standardised AP hips radiograph, questionnaire, non-arthritic hip score (NAHS), oxford hip score (OHS) and SF12 score.Introduction
Patients/Materials & Methods
Aims. Pelvic tilt is believed to affect the symptomology of osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip by alterations in joint movement, dysplasia of the hip by modification of acetabular cover, and femoroacetabular impingement by influencing the impingement-free range of motion. While the apparent role of pelvic tilt in hip pathology has been reported, the exact effects of many forms of treatment on pelvic tilt are unknown. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effects of surgery on pelvic tilt in these three groups of patients. Methods. The demographic, radiological, and outcome data for all patients operated on by the senior author between October 2016 and January 2020 were identified from a prospective registry, and all those who underwent surgery with a primary diagnosis of OA, dysplasia, or femoroacetabular impingement were considered for inclusion. Pelvic tilt was assessed on anteroposterior (AP) standing radiographs using the pre- and postoperative pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint (PS-SI) distance, and the outcomes were assessed with the Hip Outcome Score (HOS), International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12), and Harris Hip Score (HHS). Results. The linear regression model revealed a significant negative predictive association between the standing pre- and postoperative PS-SI distances for all three groups of patients (all p < 0.001). There was a significant improvement in all three outcome measures between the pre- and postoperative values (p < 0.05). Conclusion. There is a statistically significant decrease in pelvic tilt after surgery in patients with OA of the hip, dysplasia, and femoroacetabular impingement. These results confirm that surgery significantly alters the pelvic orientation. Pelvic tilt significantly decreased after total hip arthroplasty, periacetabular osteotomy, and arthroscopy/surgical
Outcomes following different types of surgical intervention for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are well reported individually but comparative data are deficient.

Objectives. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the existing literature from 2005 to 2016 reporting on the efficacy of surgical management of patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) secondary to slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). Methods. The electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched and screened in duplicate. Data such as patient demographics, surgical technique, surgical outcomes and complications were retrieved from eligible studies. Results. Fifteen eligible level IV studies were included in this review comprising 261 patients (266 hips). Treatment groups included arthroscopic osteochondroplasty, surgical
Ideally the hip arthroplasty should not be subject to bony or prosthetic impingement, in order to minimise complications and optimise outcomes. Modern 3d planning permits pre-operative simulation of the movements of the planned hip arthroplasty to check for such impingement. For this to be meaningful, however, it is necessary to know the range of movement (ROM) that should be simulated. Arbitrary “normal” values for hip ROM are of limited value in such simulations: it is well known that hip ROM is individualised for each patient. We have therefore developed a method to determine this individualised ROM using CT scans. CT scans were performed on 14 cadaveric hips, and the images were segmented to create 3d virtual models. Using Matlab software, each virtual hip was moved in all potential directions to the point of bony impingement, thus defining an individualised impingement-free 3d ROM envelope. This was then compared with the actual ROM as directly measured from each cadaver using a high-resolution motion capture system. For each hip, the ROM envelope free of bony impingement could be described from the CT and represented as a 3d shape. As expected, the directly measured ROM from the cadaver study for each hip was smaller than the CT-based prediction, owing to the presence of constraining soft tissues. However, for movements associated with
Femoroacetabular impingement is a prearthritic deformity frequently associated with early chondral damage. Several techniques exist for restoring larger cartilage defects. While AMIC proved to be an effective treatment in knee and ankle, there are only short-term data available in hip. This study aimed to investigate the mid-term clinical outcome of patients with chondral lesions treated by AMIC and evaluate the quality of repair tissue via MRI. This retrospective, single center study includes 18 patients undergoing surgical
Our understanding of pre-arthritic hip disease has evolved tremendously but challenges remain in categorizing diagnosis, which ultimately impacts choice of treatments and clinical outcomes. This study aims to report patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) comparing four different condition groups within hip preservation surgery by a group of fellowship-trained surgeons. From 2018 to 2021, 380 patients underwent hip preservation surgery at our center and were classified into five condition groups: dysplasia: 82 (21.6%), femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI): 173 (45.4%), isolated labral tear: 103 (27.1%), failed hip preservation: 20 (5.3%) and history of childhood disease/other: 2 (0.5%). International hip outcomes Tool 12 (IHOT-12), numeric pain score and patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS) were collected pre-operatively and at 3 months and 1 year post-operatively, with 94% and 82% follow-up rate respectively. Arthroscopy (75.5%) was the most common procedure followed by peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO) (22.4%) and surgical dislocation (2.1%). Re-operation rate were respectively 18.3% (15), 5.8% (10), 4.9% (5), 30% (6) and 0%. There were 36 re-operations in the cohort, 14 (39%) for unintended consequences of initial surgery, 10 (28%) for mal-correction leading to a repeat operation, 8 (22%) progression of arthritis, and 4 (11%) for incorrect initial diagnosis/intervention. Most common re-operations were hardware removal 31% (7 PAO, 3 surgical
Fracture risks are the most common argument against the use of Ceramic on ceramic (CoC) hip implants. Question: is ceramic material at risk in case of severe local trauma?. Over a long period, we tried to identify patients with a CoC prosthesis (Ceraver Osteal°)who did sustain a trauma. This was conducted in three different institutions. Eleven patients were found: 9 males and 2 females aged 17 to 70 years at time of index surgery. Accident occurred 6 months to 15 years after index: one car accident, five motorcycle accident, five significant trauma after a fall, including one ski board accident. Consequences of these trauma were: six fractures of the acetabulum with socket loosening in 4 that needed revision, two femoral shaft fracture, one orifed and one stem exchanged, one traumatic
