Although periprosthetic fractures of the acetabulum are relatively uncommon after total hip arthroplasty, a variety of patient-, surgeon-, and implant-related risk factors can contribute to the occurrence of this serious complication. These risk factors, combined with the increased use of cementless acetabular cups, will likely result in an increased prevalence of these fractures in the future. By better understanding the risk factors, classification schemes, and treatment options for periprosthetic fractures of the acetabulum, orthopaedic surgeons can achieve better outcomes for their patients.

Robotic-Assistance in Total Hip Arthroplasty Is Associated With Decreased Dislocation Rates.

Rubin Institute for Advanced Orthopedics, LifeBridge Health, Sinai Hospital of Baltimore, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Background: As the use of robotics in total hip arthroplasty (THA) continues to gain popularity, differences in clinical outcomes when compared to manual techniques have remained unclear. This study aimed to compare postoperative complications between patients undergoing robotic-assisted techniques and manual THA for primary osteoarthritis at 90 days, 1 year, and 2 years.
Methods: Using an all-payer national database, we identified 405,048 patients who underwent either robotic-assisted or manual THA for primary osteoarthritis.
Management of Femoral Condyle Insufficiency Fractures Following Total Knee Arthroplasty (FCIF-TKA).

Orthopedic Surgery, Sengkang General Hospital, Singapore, SGP.
Background: Femoral condyle insufficiency fractures following total knee arthroplasty (FCIF-TKA) are rare but significant complications. These fractures, characterized by atraumatic bone insufficiency near the femoral component, present unique challenges in postoperative care, often necessitating femoral component revision.
Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed 835 primary total knee arthroplasties performed by a single surgeon, identifying six cases of FCIF-TKA.
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.
Low-Demand Cemented Femoral Stem Designs and Revision Risk Following the Hemiarthroplasty Treatment of Geriatric Hip Fracture.
J Am Acad Orthop Surg
January 2025
From the Hawaii Permanente Medical Group, Kaiser Permanente, Honolulu, HI (Okike), the Department of Surgical Outcomes and Analysis, Kaiser Permanente, San Diego, CA (Prentice, Paxton, and Fasig), the San Francisco Orthopaedic Residency Program, San Francisco, CA (Shah), the Permanente Medical Group, Oakland, CA (Grimsrud), and the Washington Permanente Medical Group P.C, Seattle, WA (Chen).
Background: Cemented fixation is recommended in the hemiarthroplasty treatment of geriatric femoral neck fractures. Certain cemented stems have similarly designed "low-demand" counterparts, but it is unclear whether they yield comparable clinical outcomes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the revision risk associated with two low-demand stems, Summit Basic (DePuy Synthes) and Versys LD/Fx (Zimmer Biomet), in comparison to their standard counterparts, Summit (DePuy Synthes) and Versys Advocate (Zimmer Biomet).

Introduction: The choice between cemented and cementless fixation in primary elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a subject of ongoing debate. However, comparisons between the two are subject to limited adjustments for patient characteristics, diagnoses, and surgical factors, as well as by limited outcome time endpoints. Our study aimed to compare the effect of femoral fixation on safety and implant survival outcomes in matched patients.
