Objective: To observe the results of total hip replacement with collum femoris preserving for the treatment of advanced stage of femoral head necrosis of youth.

Methods: From August 2002 to November 2009, 21 patients (28 hips) with advanced stage of femoral head necrosis were treated with total hip replacement with collum femoris preserving. Sixteen males (22 hips) and 5 females (6 hips) with an average age of 36 years (range from 26 to 51 years) were included. All patients were evaluated clinically using Harris score, the prosthesis components were assessed for position, loosening, bone resorption and other conditions with radiographs.

Results: Nineteen patients (26 hip) were followed up for mean 5 years and 7 months (ranging 5 years and 3 months to 7 years and 1 month), 2 patients were missed. The average Harris score increased from the preoperative average 48.5 to 90.2. The leg-length discrepancy (the difference was less than 2 cm) occurred in 3 cases. No thigh pain and revision.

Conclusion: Total hip arthroplasty with collum femoris preserving is one of the best choices for the treatment of advanced stage of femoral head necrosis of young patients with good midterm outcome.

Contradictory links between lipid levels and bone health: atherogenic index of plasma and bone microarchitecture.

J Orthop Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Spine, Wangjing Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, 100000, China.

Purpose: Lipids increase osteoporosis and fracture risk, yet research on Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), bone mineral density declines (BMD), and trabecular bone score (TBS) is limited. This study examined the relationships between AIP, TBS, and BMD in American adults using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data, including the effect of obesity.

Methods: Based on data from 3,162 Americans, multivariable logistic regression and a generalized additive model (GAM) were used to analyze AIP, BMD, and TBS.

Background: Hip morphology variations, particularly in femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) and iliac wing width (IWW), have been associated with gluteal tendinopathy. However, the biomechanical implications of these morphological differences on gluteal muscle function are not well understood. This study investigates how NSA and IWW influence gluteal muscle forces, moment arms, and estimated tendon loads during walking, aiming to provide insights into the potential biomechanical pathways that may contribute to altered lateral hip loading patterns.

Background: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a well-recognized cause of hip pain in adults. The hip-spine relationship between the femur, pelvis, and lumbosacral spine has garnered recent attention in hip arthroplasty. However, the hip-spine relationship has not been well described in patients with FAI.

The prevalence and outcomes of pre-admission vitamin D levels in the management of proximal femur fractures.

Aging Med (Milton)

December 2024

Department of Trauma and Orthopaedics Gateshead Health Foundation NHS Trust Gateshead UK.

Objectives: The prevalence of low Vitamin D levels (<30 nmol/L) is about 15.7% globally. The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in elderly patients with fragility fractures of the hip by estimating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and to assess whether low vitamin D levels at the time of admission affect functional outcomes at 3 months and mortality at 28 days and 1 year.

Department of Biochemistry, Gulhane Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Health Sciences, Ankara-Türkiye.

Background: Osteoporosis is characteristically defined as a decrease in bone density and mass, accompanied by the deterioration of bone structure, which increases bone fragility and the risk of fractures. Osteoporosis frequently develops with age. In high-risk populations, oxidative damage is a common pathological condition.
