Effect of Spine-Pelvis Relationship in Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Hip Pelvis

Published: March 2019

When spine-pelvic motion is normally coordinated, the pelvis may tilt posteriorly and acetabular anteversion may increase as the patient's position changes from standing to sitting; this scenario allows for improved clearance of the femoral head and neck during hip flexion. However, changes in the mobility of the spine and pelvis may result in impingement after total hip arthroplasty (THA), with the most obvious complication being dislocation. Understanding the spinal-pelvic relationship in the sagittal plane is essential for planning THA in patients with spinal fusion or a known spine disease. Careful attention should be payed to the cup position when performing THA on patients with an increased risk of dynamic impingement.

Presurgical anxiety and acute postsurgical pain predict worse chronic pain profiles after total knee/hip arthroplasty.

Introduction: Total joint arthroplasties generally achieve good outcomes, but chronic pain and disability are a significant burden after these interventions. Acknowledging relevant risk factors can inform preventive strategies. This study aimed to identify chronic pain profiles 6 months after arthroplasty using the ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases) classification and to find pre and postsurgical predictors of these profiles.

Background: The aim was to assess whether the postoperative Oxford Hip Score (OHS) demonstrated a ceiling effect at 1 or 2 years after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to identify which patients are more likely to achieve a ceiling score and whether this limits assessment of their outcome.

Methods: A retrospective cohort of 7871 patients undergoing primary THA was identified from an established arthroplasty database. Patient demographics, ASA grade, socioeconomic status, OHS and EuroQol questionnaire were collected preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively.

Introduction: As illustrated by the "Walker Dip," there is growing concern regarding the lack of combat casualty care during peacetime. Surgical volume and case complexity are paramount for training and skill sustainment. We sought to quantify the recent orthopedic trauma surgical case load of all military orthopedic surgeons across the Military Health System (MHS).

Background: Arthroscopic labral repair of the hip is successfully performed with increasing frequency using either knotless or knotted suture anchors, each with its own risks and benefits.

Purpose: To examine biomechanical and clinical outcomes for labral repair of the hip based on the use of knotted or knotless suture anchors.

Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4.

Background: Surgical options for septic arthritis include open arthrotomy or an arthroscopic procedure. The optimal surgical technique remains a matter of debate as acceptable results have been reported for both.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopy versus arthrotomy for the treatment of septic arthritis in large and intermediate-sized joints.
