AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the re-dislocation rates after revision surgery for recurrent dislocation in total hip arthroplasty (THA) over an 8-year period, finding a rate of 16.7% for late dislocations.
  • The major causes of recurrent dislocation identified were socket mal-orientation and abductor deficiency, and most patients underwent revision of both hip components.
  • No re-dislocations occurred within the first 90 days post-surgery, indicating favorable short-term outcomes after the revisions.

Article Abstract

Background: The cause of recurrent dislocation following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is multifactorial. A re-dislocation rate of up-to 34% following revision is reported. The aim of this study was to determine the re-dislocation rates following revision for recurrent THR dislocation.

Methodology: Patients who underwent revision for recurrent dislocation between January 2008 and January 2015 were identified. We identified the date and type of primary implant, overall number and reasons for dislocation, revision implant details and complication data.

Results: Over an 8-year period, 24 patients underwent revision. The median age was 77 (68-85) years, median time to first dislocation was 78 (23-160) months and median number of dislocations was 3 (2-4) with a mean follow-up of 18 months. Socket Mal-Orientation (10) and Abductor deficiency (5) were the main causes of recurrent dislocation. 21 patients (88%) underwent revision of both components, 1 patient underwent isolated cup revision and 2 patients had revision of acetabular component with insertion of a BioBall. There were no dislocations within 90 days of revision surgery. 4 patients had late dislocations (3 recurrent, 1 isolated). There was no significant increase risk of dislocation after revision surgery in the neck of femur group (  0.467).

Conclusions: We report favourable outcomes for revision of both components for recurrent dislocation with no dislocations within 90 days. The overall late dislocation rate was 16.7%, however, these patients have settled following closed reduction. Due to its multifactorial aetiology, both component revision can be considered in this patient population.

Purpose: The study aimed to compare the infection control rates, mechanical complications, and functional outcomes between prosthetic and cement spacers in two-stage revision arthroplasty for chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI).

Patients And Methods: Data from patients treated for chronic PJI in our center from 2014 to 2023 were retrospectively collected and the patients were divided into the prosthetic spacer (PS) and cement spacer (CS) groups based on the type of spacer used for the first-stage surgeries. Data on patients' demographics and clinical scores were harvested.

Purpose: To assess the modified 1 anterior portal Bankart repair and compare it to the 2-portal Bankart repair in terms of surgical time, functional scores, and recurrent dislocation.

Methods: Patients who underwent Bankart repair from 2014 to 2021 were identified and separated into 2 groups: a modified 1 anterior portal group and a 2 anterior portal group. The inclusion criteria were being >18 years old, having a recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with a Bankart lesion, and having a minimum 2-year follow-up.

Background: The incidence of revision shoulder arthroplasty continues to rise, and infection is a common indication for revision surgery. Treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in the shoulder remains a controversial topic, with the literature reporting varying methodologies, including the use of debridement and implant retention, single-stage and 2-stage surgeries, antibiotic spacers, and resection arthroplasty. Single-stage revision has been shown to have a low rate of recurrent infection, making it more favorable because it precludes the morbidity of a 2-stage operation.

Background: While risk factors for recurrent instability (RI) after arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) for anterior glenohumeral instability (aGHI) have been well established in adult populations, there is much less evidence in pediatric and adolescent patients, despite being the most affected epidemiologic subpopulation.

Purpose: To identify the clinical, demographic, radiologic, and operative risk factors for RI after ABR for aGHI in pediatric and adolescent patients.

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

Background: Arthroscopic repair is recommended for patients with bony Bankart lesions to restore anterior shoulder stability and avoid recurrent glenohumeral instability. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients following arthroscopic bony Bankart repair using a single suture anchor fixation technique named the "door-locking" technique.

Methods: From January 2017 to February 2024, a consecutive series of 22 patients with acute bony Bankart lesions underwent shoulder arthroscopy.
