Purpose

Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a versatile acetabular reorienting procedure that is most commonly used to provide greater femoral head coverage in adolescent hip dysplasia. However, PAO can also be used to reorient the acetabulum in the opposite direction to treat femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) due to acetabular over-coverage. We describe the indications, surgical technique, and early results of reverse PAO to reduce femoral head coverage in symptomatic hips with FAI due to acetabular over-coverage.

Methods

IRB approval was obtained to retrospectively review cases of symptomatic acetabular over-coverage treated with reverse PAO and that had a minimum of two years follow-up. All hips had atypical intraoperative positioning of the acetabular fragment to uncover the lateral and anterior aspects of the femoral head, with or without anteverting the acetabulum. Prospectively collected pre- and post-operative demographics, WOMAC scores, Modified Harris Hip Score (MHHS), and radiographic measurements consisting of the lateral center edge angle (LCEA), Tönnis angle (TA), and anterior center edge angle (ACEA) were compared using student's t-test.

Purpose

Factors contributing to chronic postoperative pain (CPOP) are poorly defined in young people and developmental considerations are poorly understood. With over 5 million children undergoing surgery yearly and 25% of adults referred to chronic pain clinics identifying surgery as the antecedent, there is a need to elucidate factors that contribute to CPOP in young people. The present study includes patients undergoing hip preservation surgery at a children's hospital.

Methods

The HOOS and the SF-12 Health Survey were administered to 614 patients prior to surgery with 422 patients completing follow-up data (6-months, 1-year, and 2-years post-surgery). Examining baseline characteristics for those who completed follow-up versus those who did not, the only significant difference was that patients with more than one surgery were less likely to complete follow-up measures. Pain, quality of life, and functioning across time were examined using SAS PROC TRAJ procedure, a mixture model that estimates a regression model for each discrete group within the population. Longitudinal pain trajectories were empirically grouped. Baseline preoperative characteristics of age, gender, preoperative pain, quality of life, functioning, and mental health that could potentially distinguish trajectory groups were examined.
