Published: February 2002

Revision of the femur component in total hip arthroplasty using impacted morcellized bone allografts and cemented Lubinus SP-II prosthesis or Charnley standard prosthesis was performed in patients with loss of bone stock grade II through IV according to the Endo-Klinik classification from 1st to 8th revision. We report the results from 57 hips in 56 patients, with a median of 64 months' follow-up. Modified Merle d'Aubigne-Postel postoperative scores increased significantly from preoperative to postoperative values for the Lubinus group and for the Charnley group. Few complications were seen in this follow-up period. Five stems had minor subsidence. Rate of mechanical failure was 4% for both groups. Radiologic examinations provided evidence of frequent trabecular remodeling of the graft, especially for the Lubinus prosthesis.

Cost Effectiveness of Fixation Versus Total Hip Arthroplasty in Vancouver B2 Periprosthetic Femur Fractures: A Predictive Markov Analysis.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA (Scott, Blackburn, Prasad, Lim, Lavoie-Gagne, Melnic, and Bedair), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Newton, MA (Scott, Blackburn, Prasad, Lim, Melnic, and Bedair).

Background: Although Vancouver B2 periprosthetic fractures (PPFs) have been historically managed with revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA), open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) has been proposed as an alternative option for reasons including lower cost and surgical time. The purpose of this study was to, therefore, create a Markov model to assess the cost effectiveness of ORIF versus rTHA for Vancouver B2 periprosthetic femur fractures and evaluate various inflection points for varying costs and outcome measures.

Methods: A Markov model was built using discrete and mutually exclusive health states of the hypothetical patient with Vancouver B2 PPF.

Case: Triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) is used to treat developmental dysplasia of the hip in a pediatric population. This case report highlights a new indication for this procedure. Acetabular coverage was restored in a 9-year-old patient who experienced instability following hip hemiarthroplasty and proximal femur composite allograft implantation for the treatment of Ewing sarcoma.

Unlabelled: The increased rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears has led to a greater number of revisions. Revision surgery can be performed in one or two stages. Single-stage revision ACL reconstruction (ssRACLR) may be performed when prior tunnels can be re-used or bypassed whereas a two-stage procedure is indicated when bone grafting of dilated tunnels prior to revision is necessary.

Introduction: Numerous orthopaedic procedures including dynamic hip screw plating and various osteotomies require placement of a reference guide pin or K wire to direct bone cuts or for drilling screw holes. Appropriate positioning of these wires is a critical component of surgery. Irrespective of whether one is a seasoned surgeon or an apprentice, these wires often need repositioning and readjustment.

Background: Dislocation remains a common complication following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Previous literature has shown that the femoral head-to-neck ratio is essential in hip motion, function, and stability. While large femoral heads and dual mobility bearings have been developed to improve stability, it remains unknown if the ratio between femoral head size to acetabular cup size also plays a role in stability.
