Hip resurfacing in young patients has been increasingly performed within the last decade. In comparison to standard total hip arthroplasty the failure rate remains high. Age and implant size have a significant effect on the risk of revision for primary total resurfacing and the risk of revision increases with increasing age. At 7 years the cumulative revision rate for patients is 5% and females have more than twice the cumulative revision rate as males. Even in hip resurfacing arthroplasty which has been performed in a perfect manner, a certain percentage of patients suffer from persistent pain for various reasons, such as neck fracture, iliopsoas tendinopathy, metal hypersensitivity, such as aseptic lymphocytic vasculitis associated lesions (ALVAL) and aseptic loosening. Diagnostic work-up of the painful hip resurfacing is challenging even for experienced surgeons. Recommendations for the diagnostic procedure are described.

Degenerative gluteal tears associated with hip arthroplasty.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord

January 2025

Midlands Orthopaedics & Neurosurgery, 1910 Blanding Street, Columbia, SC, 29201, USA.

Background: Unrepaired chronic abductor tears may be a cause of residual pain and weakness after hip arthroplasty, but the current incidence is unclear.

Methods: From 1994 to 2009, the senior surgeon performed 1628 hip resurfacing and 864 total hip arthroplasties without identifying any gluteal tears. We recognized our first case of concomitant abductor tear during a hip resurfacing procedure in April 2009.

The prototype of a biomimetic multi-spiked connecting scaffold (MSC-Scaffold) represents an essential innovation in the fixation in subchondral trabecular bone of components for a new generation of entirely cementless hip resurfacing arthroplasty (RA) endoprostheses. In designing such a functional biomaterial scaffold, identifying the microstructural and mechanical properties of the host bone compromised by degenerative disease is crucial for proper post-operative functioning and long-term maintenance of the endoprosthesis components. This study aimed to explore, depending on the occurrence of obesity, changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the subchondral trabecular bone in femoral heads of osteoarthritis (OA) patients caused by the MSC-Scaffold embedding.

Background: Unrestricted kinematic alignment (uKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has the theoretical advantage of reproducing patients' constitutional alignment and restoring the pre-arthritic joint line position and obliquity. However, modifications of the original uKA technique have been proposed due to the potential risk of mechanical failure and instability. Given the significant variability in soft tissue behavior within the same bony morphology group, uKA pure knee resurfacing could be occasionally detrimental.

Purpose: Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is recommended for younger patients seeking higher levels of activity. However, femoroacetabular cup impingement (FACI) between the femoral neck and acetabular prosthesis remains a concern. This study aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, and prognostic consequences of FACI after HRA.

Frequent complications of deficient patellae after component removal in 1.5-stage exchange arthroplasty for periprosthetic joint infection.

Arch Orthop Trauma Surg

December 2024

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kyung Hee University College of Medicine, Kyung Hee University Medical Center, 26 Kyunghee-daero, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, 02447, Korea.

Purpose: To compare the complication rates between deficient patellae (remnant patellae after component removal) and non-resurfaced patellae after 1.5-stage exchange arthroplasty for periprosthetic joint infection and identify risk factors for complications of deficient patellae.

Methods: Complications in 76 deficient patellae (group D) and 41 non-resurfaced patellae (group N), with a minimum follow-up of 2 years after 1.
