During total knee arthroplasty, femur and tibia parts are regularly replaced, while resurfacing the patellar or not is an ongoing discussion. To compare revision rate, anterior knee pain rate, patient-reported outcome measures, complication, radiographic, and clinical outcomes after patellar resurfacing versus non-resurfacing in total knee arthroplasty.PubMed, Medline, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and CINAHL databases were searched on 25 April 2021 to enroll randomized controlled trials that compared patellar resurfacing versus non-resurfacing. We used the grading of recommendations assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) framework to assess the certainty of evidence. Our primary outcome was revision rate and secondary outcomes was anterior knee pain rate. Outcomes were pooled using the random-effect model and presented as risk ratio (RR), or mean difference (MD), with 95% confidence interval (CI).Fifty studies (5586 knees) were included. Significant reductions in patellar revision rate (RR 0.41, 95% CI [0.19, 0.88]; P = 0.02; IThe clear relationship is that patellar resurfacing reduces revisions, anterior knee pain, and patellar clunk. It will be interesting to compare the initial cost with the revision cost when required and cost-utility analysis with long-term results in future studies.

Objectives The purpose of this study was to analyze mid- to long-term outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) following failed internal fixation of femoral neck fracture. Methods This study retrospectively analyzed 345 patients with femoral neck fracture who underwent THA after failure of internal fixation at our hospital between January, 2003 and December, 2019. Patients older than 55 years (n = 175) and patients no older than 55 years (n = 170) were compared in terms of complications and survival rates during follow-up, which lasted a mean of 6 years. Results The two age groups showed similarly low incidence of complications and similarly long periods of survival without revision surgery. Only three younger patients and two older patients underwent revision surgery during follow-up. The two groups showed similarly high survival rates at the end of follow-up (> 93%). Younger patients showed significantly bettter Harris hip score at last follow-up (90.2 vs. 88.1 points, p Conclusions THA after failed internal fixation of femoral neck fracture is a well tolerated and effective procedure in older and younger patients.

To investigate the safety, efficiency and cost of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) under the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program and identify predictors facilitating further decrease in length of stay (LOS).We retrospectively collected the information of patients who underwent primary unilateral TJA by a single surgical team between January 2017 and June 2019. A total of 604 patients with LOS ≤ 3 was enrolled in this study. All patients completed 12-month or longer follow-up. Patients received the same ERAS protocol, mainly including preoperative preparation (patient education, preoperative functional exercises, nutritional support), blood management, pain management, sleep management, prevention of infection, prevention of thrombosis and strict discharge criteria. Preoperative characteristics of patients were collected from the medical record system and were compared between the LOS ≤ 2 group and the LOS = 3 group. Factors with significant difference were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis to find independent preoperative predictors for LOS. Joint function at the latest follow-up, adverse events rate and hospitalization costs were compared between the LOS ≤ 2 group and the LOS = 3 group.Of the enrolled 604 patients, 271 patients (44.9%) had a LOS of 2 days or less while 333 patients (55.1%) had a LOS of 3 days. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score (odds ratio [OR] = 1.084, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.024-1.147, P = 0.005), preoperative albumin level (OR = 0.945, 95% CI = 0.905-0.988, P = 0.012), digestive diseases (OR = 1.084, 95% CI = 1.024-1.147, P = 0.005) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) (OR = 0.273, 95% CI = 0.170-0.439, P 0.001) were predictors of LOS ≤ 2 in the multivariate logistic analysis model. The postoperative joint function scores and adverse event rates were comparable between the LOS ≤ 2 group and the LOS = 3 group. The hospital costs were lower in the LOS ≤ 2 group than the LOS = 3 group.Under the rigorous ERAS program, 2-day discharge in unselected TJA patients can be routinely applied. Patients with high preoperative sleep quality, high preoperative albumin level, free of digestive disease and undergoing THA procedure are more likely to be discharged within 2 days.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered the best treatment for sequelae of suppurative hip arthritis, but such patients are more likely to have occult infection and therefore to suffer post-operative periprosthetic joint infection. Our study examined (1) the occult infection rate among patients with sequelae of suppurative hip arthritis, and whether (2) neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), or fibrinogen levels can be used to screen such patients for occult infection before THA.We retrospectively enrolled 428 patients who underwent primary THA at our hospital between 2010 and 2021, of whom 31 had occult infection and 397 did not. The maximum sensitivity and specificity were determined for the three indicators using receiver operating characteristic curves, and positive and negative predictive values were calculated.Patients with occult infection showed significantly higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and higher levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and fibrinogen than those without occult infection. The various potential indicators gave the following areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves: ESR, 0.586; CRP, 0.599; interleukin-6, 0.651; NLR, 0.506; MLR, 0.600; and fibrinogen, 0.589. Sensitivity and specificity were as follows: ESR, 30.8% and 92.5%; CRP, 50.0% and 70.2%; interleukin-6, 57.7% and 67.5%; NLR, 46.7% and 62.9%; MLR, 60.0% and 61.7%; and fibrinogen, 43.3% and 81.7%.The rate of occult infection was 7.24% among our patients. ESR, NLR, MLR, and levels of CRP, interleukin-6, and fibrinogen may be unreliable for screening such patients for occult infection before THA according to sensitivity and specificity.

To evaluate the diagnostic values of preoperative plasma fibrinogen and platelet count for screening fixation-related infection (FRI) in patients undergoing conversion total hip arthroplasty (cTHA) after failed internal fixation of hip fractures.This was a single-center retrospective study. Data were retrospectively analyzed for 435 patients who underwent cTHA in our hospital from January 2008 to September 2020. They were divided into infected (n = 30) and non-infected groups (n = 405) according to the 2013 International Consensus Meeting (ICM) criteria. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of plasma fibrinogen and platelet count were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Optimal predictive cutoffs of these two markers were determined based on the Youden index. In addition, the diagnostic value of preoperative serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) for screening FRI were also evaluated based on the cutoffs recommended by the 2013 ICM Criteria. Finally, the diagnostic ability of various combinations of the plasma fibrinogen and platelet count as well as serum CRP and ESR was re-assessed.The numbers of patients with and without FRI were 30 (6.9%) and 405 (93.1%), respectively. Areas under the ROC curves were 0.770 for fibrinogen, 0.606 for platelet, 0.844 for CRP and 0.749 for ESR. The optimal predictive cutoff of fibrinogen was 3.73 g/L, which gave sensitivity of 60.0% and specificity of 90.5%. The optimal predictive cutoff for platelet was 241.5 × 10Preoperative serum CRP, ESR, plasma fibrinogen and platelet count have low sensitivity on their own for screening FRI in patients, but the combination of CRP with fibrinogen shows promise for that.

Background Multiple doses of dexamethasone and tranexamic acid can inhibit postoperative inflammation and reduce fibrinolysis and perioperative blood loss in total knee arthroplasty. In this single-center, double-blind, randomized clinical trial, the aim was to investigate whether applying a tourniquet to patients on dexamethasone and tranexamic acid could further reduce perioperative blood loss. Materials and methods Patients who underwent cemented total knee arthroplasty at our hospital were randomized to receive a tourniquet (n = 71) or not (n = 70) during the procedure. All patients received multiple doses of dexamethasone and tranexamic acid perioperatively. The primary outcome was perioperative blood loss, while secondary outcomes were surgery duration, postoperative laboratory indices of inflammation and fibrinolysis, range of knee motion, VAS pain score, knee circumference, knee swelling rate, homologous transfusion, albumin use, and complications. Results Using a tourniquet was associated with significantly lower intraoperative blood loss (P P = 0.007) as well as significantly shorter surgery duration (P Conclusions The results of this randomized clinical trial demonstrate that applying a tourniquet during cemented total knee arthroplasty to patients receiving multiple doses of dexamethasone and tranexamic acid can further reduce perioperative blood loss without increasing the risk of inflammation, fibrinolysis, or other complications. Thus, it is advised to use tourniquets combined with dexamethasone and tranexamic acid to reduce perioperative blood loss and avoid tourniquet-related adverse events.

Background Intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) is an important component of blood management in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. However, the role of ICS is less well defined in total hip arthroplasty (THA) with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) which is a common surgical technique to manage high hip dislocation. This study aimed to determine the effect of ICS during THA with SSO and to identify factors associated with the ability to salvage sufficient collection for reinfusion in patients with high hip dislocation. Methods We identified 178 patients who underwent THA with SSO for high hip dislocation between November 2010 and April 2021. The consecutive cohort was analyzed by logistic regression to determine the effect of ICS on postoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) and to explore the associations between patient demographics, clinical and radiographic characteristics, preoperative laboratory examination, and surgical variables with the ability to generate adequate blood salvage to reinfuse. Results In the consecutive cohort of 178 patients, cell salvage was reinfused in 107 patients (60.1%) and postoperative allogeneic red blood cell (RBC) transfusion within 3 days of implantation was administrated in 40 patients (22.5%). In multivariate analysis, the reinfusion of ICS (OR (95%CI) 0.17 (0.07–0.47)), center of rotation (COR) height ≥ 60 mm (OR (95%CI) 3.30 (1.21–9.01)), the length of SSO ≥ 30 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.75 (1.05–7.22)) and the use of drainage (OR (95%CI) 2.28 (1.04–5.03)) were identified as independent factors of postoperative allogeneic RBC transfusion. In addition, the following variables were identified as independent factors associated with the ability to generate sufficient blood salvage volume for reinfusion: COR height ≥ 60 mm (OR (95%CI) 3.47 (1.58–7.61)), limb-length discrepancy (LLD) ≥ 25 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.55 (1.15–5.65)) and length of SSO ≥ 30 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.75 (1.33–5.69)). Conclusions ICS was efficacious in reducing the exposure rate of postoperative RBC transfusion for high hip dislocation during THA with SSO. In addition, patients with greater COR height, larger LLD, and longer length of SSO were predisposed to generate sufficient collection for reinfusion in THA with SSO.

Background Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) undergoing bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are an uncommon population, and their outcomes are also difficult to predict. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether both bilateral cementless THA and cemented posterior-stabilized TKA (PS-TKA) can provide reliable outcomes for RA patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 30 RA patients (60 hips and 60 knees) who underwent both elective bilateral cementless THA and cemented PS-TKA, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Clinical, patient-reported, and radiographic data were retrospectively analyzed. Results The mean follow-up was 84 months (range, 24–156). By the last follow-up, the post-operative range of motion, Harris Hip Score, Knee Society Score (KSS) clinical, KSS functional, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Index of Osteoarthritis (WOMAC) hip, and WOMAC knee scores were significantly improved compared to the preoperative values. All patients achieved the ability to walk. In addition, overall satisfaction scores on a 100-point scale were 92.5 after THA and 89.6 after TKA. Only one patient underwent revision surgery due to knee joint instability, and all replaced hips and knees were radiographically stable by the assessment of the radiolucent line. The proportion of implants that did not suffer loosening or require revision surgery was 99.2% during the 84-month follow-up, based on Kaplan-Meier analysis. Conclusions Our study suggests that bilateral cementless THA and cemented PS-TKA provides reliable mid-long-term clinical, patient-reported, and radiographic outcomes in RA patients, with high survivorship and patient satisfaction.

This study aimed to explore the analgesic effect among adductor canal block (ACB) combined with infiltration between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) block, ACB, and IPACK block following total knee arthroplasty (TKA).One hundred twenty patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups including group A (ACB + IPACK block), group B (ACB), and group C (IPACK block). The primary outcome was postoperative pain score. The secondary outcome was opioid consumption. Other outcomes included functional evaluation and postoperative complications.Group A showed the lowest pain scores within 8 hours at rest and with knee maximum flexion (P.001). From 12 to 24 hours, group C showed the highest pain scores, while no significant difference was found between group A and group B. No significant difference was found among the 3 groups 24 hours postoperatively. Group C showed the most opioid consumption within the first 24 hours and during the hospitalization, while no significant difference was found between group A and group B. No significant difference was found among the 3 groups including function evaluation and postoperative complications.ACB + IPACK block can improve early analgesia when compared with ACB. However, the small statistical benefit to the addition of IPACK block to ACB may be unlikely to be clinically significant. Further studies may focus on patient selection and how to prolong the effect of IPACK block.

Aims Monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) or neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are useful for diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), but their diagnostic values are unclear for screening fixation-related infection (FRI) in patients for whom conversion total hip arthroplasty (THA) is planned after failed internal fixation for femoral neck fracture. Methods We retrospectively included 340 patients who underwent conversion THA after internal fixation for femoral neck fracture from January 2008 to September 2020. Those patients constituted two groups: noninfected patients and patients diagnosed with FRI according to the 2013 International Consensus Meeting Criteria. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine maximum sensitivity and specificity of these two preoperative ratios. The diagnostic performance of the two ratios combined with preoperative CRP or ESR was also evaluated. Results The numbers of patients with and without FRI were 19 (5.6%) and 321 (94.4%), respectively. Areas under the ROC curve for diagnosing FRI were 0.763 for MLR, 0.686 for NLR, 0.905 for CRP, and 0.769 for ESR. Based on the Youden index, the optimal predictive cutoffs were 0.25 for MLR and 2.38 for NLR. Sensitivity and specificity were 78.9% and 71.0% for MLR, and 78.9% and 56.4% for NLR, respectively. The combination of CRP with MLR showed a sensitivity of 84.2% and specificity of 94.6%, while the corresponding values for the combination of CRP with NLR were 89.5% and 91.5%, respectively. Conclusion The presence of preoperative FRI among patients undergoing conversion THA after internal fixation for femoral neck fracture should be determined. The combination of preoperative CRP with NLR is sensitive tool for screening FRI in those patients. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2021;103-B(9):1534–1540.

Background Posterior dislocation (PD) is a common complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and the Allis maneuver is the most widely used method for reduction. However, this classic maneuver has some disadvantages. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether a modified lateral position (MLP) reduction maneuver provides an easier and safer method for PD reduction than the Allis maneuver. Methods Between August 2019 and September 2021, a series of 88 consecutive PD patients who underwent THA were retrospectively evaluated. The patients were divided into the MLP reduction group and Allis reduction group according to the electronic health medical record. The success rate of closed reduction, Harris hip score (HHS), and radiographic outcomes were determined. Satisfaction scores, doctor safety events and complications were also determined and compared between the groups. The mean follow-up period was 1.66 ± 0.88 years. Results The success rate of reduction in the MLP group was significantly 12.5% higher than that in the Allis group (P = 0.024). Periprosthetic fracture and implant loosening were retrospectively identified in 2 hips and 1 hip, which all occurred in the Allis group. The mean doctor and patient SAPS scores in the MLP group were 84.00 points and 76.97 points, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the Allis group (72.12, P = 0.008 and 63.28 points, P = 0.001). Four adverse events were reported in the Allis group, compared with 0 in the MLP group. Conclusions For PD after THA, the MLP reduction maneuver can effectively increase the reduction success rate, satisfaction, and doctor safety without increasing the risk of complications compared with the traditional Allis supine reduction maneuver. Trial registration This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2100054562) in December 19th 2021.

Background Abductor mechanism deficiency is a clear indication for using constrained acetabular liners (CALs), and large acetabular bone defects are considered a relative contraindication to CALs. We report the results of using CALs in special cases in which abductor or greater trochanter deficiency was accompanied by large acetabular bone defects at second-stage re-implantation for chronic infected total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods Between January 2010 and January 2018, 19 patients who used CALs at second-stage re-implantation and had abductor or greater trochanter deficiency and large acetabular bone defects were included in this study. We followed up with the clinical and radiological results of these patients. Complications and infection-related information were also recorded. Results Eight patients, 4 patients, and 7 patients had Paprosky type IIB, type IIC, and type IIIA acetabular bone defects at second-stage re-implantation, respectively. The indication for using CALs was abductor deficiency in 14 patients and greater trochanter deficiency in the other 5 patients. The mean follow-up was 74.4 months (range 50–96). The mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) was 76.3 points (range 62–86) at the last follow-up. Three patients presented acetabular radiolucent lines with no progress: zone 3, zone 3 and zone 2 and 3, respectively. One patient suffered transient sciatic nerve palsy. There was no dislocation, failure of the CALs, reoperation, or recurrence of infection. Conclusion Our results suggested that for screened patients, CALs are a viable option in second-stage re-implantation for chronic infected THA with abductor or greater trochanter deficiency and large bone defects.

Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) candidates frequently present pelvic malrotation. The aim of this study is to analyze how pelvic malrotation influence transverse acetabular ligament (TAL) guided cup orientation and investigate whether pelvic malrotation produce different clinical outcomes after THA. Methods We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of THA patients (144 hips) who use TAL as a guidance for cup positioning from March 2017 to January 2020. The patients were divided into normal pelvis (NP) group and backward pelvis (BP) group by sagittal pelvic malrotation assessed by APPA, the angle between the vertical and the APP on standing lateral pelvic radiographs preoperatively. Cup anteversion and inclination and that out of the safe zones were measured and compared in two groups. The demographic data, clinical results, and complications of patients were also compared. Results Backward pelvic malrotation were found in 60.6 % of this cohort of THA candidates. The mean angle of both inclination and anteversion in BP group were significantly larger than that in NP group. The rate of cup for anteversion and inclination above the safe zone in BP group was significantly larger than that in NP group. There were 4 patients in BP group recording anterior hip dislocation after surgery. Other complications were not observed at last follow-up. Conclusions Backward pelvis malrotation may increase TAL guided cup inclination and anteversion, which were inclined to became outlier above the safe zone. This likely increase the rates of dislocation after THA. For the patients with pelvis malrotation, cup positioning should be performed individually instead of guided by TAL.

Background Although serum C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), plasma fibrinogen and neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are promising biomarkers for screening PJI in patients undergoing revision arthroplasty, their efficacy with respect to re-revision arthroplasty remains unclear. Methods We included patients who underwent re-revision arthroplasty at our hospital during 2008–2020, and stratified them into two groups whether they had been diagnosed with PJI (infected) or aseptic failure (non-infected) according to the 2013 International Consensus Meeting criteria. We evaluated the diagnostic performance of CRP, ESR, fibrinogen and NLR, both individually and in combinations, based on sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results Of the 63 included patients, 32 were diagnosed with PJI. The area under the ROC curve was 0.821 for CRP, 0.794 for ESR, 0.885 for fibrinogen and 0.702 for NLR. CRP gave a sensitivity of 87.5% and specificity of 74.2% with an optimal predictive cut-off of 8.50 mg/mL. ESR gave a sensitivity of 81.3% and specificity of 71.0% with an optimal predictive cut-off of 33 mm/h. Plasma fibrinogen gave a comparatively higher sensitivity of 93.8% and specificity of 77.4% with an optimal predictive cut-off of 3.55 g/L, while NLR gave a moderate sensitivity of 84.4% but low specificity of 54.8% with an optimal predictive cut-off of 2.30. The combination of fibrinogen and CRP gave a high AUC of 0.897, an acceptable sensitivity of 75% and a high specificity 93.5%. Conclusions Plasma fibrinogen is a cost-effective, convenient biomarker that can be used to rule out PJI in patients scheduled for re-revision arthroplasty. In combination with CRP, it may be effective in diagnosing PJI in such patients.

Background Bilateral osseous ankylosed hips secondary to ankylosis spondylitis (AS) are relatively rare but impact the quality of life hugely. Cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) for bilateral osseous ankylosed hips with AS is a challenging procedure. No previous literature compares the clinical outcomes of synchronous and sequential bilateral THA for these special patients. Methods 23 patients (46 hips) were retrospectively analyzed and divided into bilateral THA synchronously (group A) and sequentially (group B). The clinical measurement, radiological assessments, and complications were compared. Independent sample T test was used for data analysis. Results Harris Hip Scores (HHS) improved greatly for both groups (P = 0.58) as well as the range of motion (P = 0.64). But group B can realize shorter time (3.6 ± 1.2 days) to walk for the first time postoperatively (P = 0.02). Group A needed more blood transfusions (P = 0.028). For group A, no statistical difference was found in the bilateral inclination of cup (IC) (P = 0.48) and femoral offset (FO) (P = 0.07). For group B, no statistical difference was observed in bilateral IC (P = 0.37) but in bilateral FO (P = 0.04). Group A showed the fewer difference of bilateral IC (P = 0.02), while comparative measurements were found for two groups in the difference of bilateral FO (P = 0.78) and leg length discrepancy (P = 0.83). For both groups, the total hospital expense for each patient was similar and almost all patients were very satisfied with the outcomes. For group A, one patient encountered femoral fracture intraoperatively and another patient encountered hip dislocation and delay union of wound. 3 hips from group A and 3 hips from group B encountered heterotopic ossification. Conclusions Our retrospective research demonstrated that cementless bilateral THA was a reliable treatment for osseous ankylosed hip due to AS. Synchronous and sequential bilateral THA can realize similarly satisfactory clinical outcomes and radiographic evaluation.

Objective The effect of patellar denervation with electrocautery (PD) on anterior knee pain (AKP) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is still debated. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the current evidence regarding the use of PD in TKA without patellar resurfacing. Methods A computerized search of published studies was performed in the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases in December 2019. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing clinical outcomes of the PD group and the non-PD group. Subgroup analyses were carried out according to the follow-up time (3, 12 months, and over 12 months) to evaluate whether the clinical effect of PD changed with time. Results Ten RCTs were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled results showed a lower rate of AKP (Risk Ratio [RR] = 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.50 to 0.97; P = 0.03) and a reduction in visual analogue scale (VAS) for AKP (mean difference, -0.37; 95% CI, -0.69 to -0.05; P = 0.02) in the PD group when compared to the non-PD group. Subgroup analyses found the differences in AKP incidence and VAS for AKP were significant at 3- and 12-month follow-up but not after 12-month follow-up. No significant difference was observed in functional scores between the two groups. No specific complication directly or indirectly related to PD was found. Conclusion PD can decrease the incidence and severity of AKP within 12 months after TKA, but the effect cannot be maintained after 12-month follow-up. Without significant associated complication and reoperation, the use of PD is still recommended in TKA without patellar resurfacing.

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of local infiltration anaesthesia (LIA) during primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) via a posterolateral approach under general anaesthesia and to compare the efficacy of LIA in all layers with LIA in the deep and superficial fascia.Patients and methodsOne hundred twenty patients were randomised into three groups: LIA in the deep and superficial fascia (group A), LIA in all layers (group B) and the control (group C). The primary outcomes were the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores at rest and on movement within 72 h (h) postoperatively. The secondary outcomes included opioid consumption, patient satisfaction, range of motion (ROM), straight leg raise completion rate, length of hospital stay, opioid-related side effects and wound complications. We followed the patients until 6 months after discharge.ResultsAt 2 and 6 h, groups A and B had lower resting VAS scores than group C (p< 0.01); at 12 h, group B had a lower resting VAS score than group C (p< 0.05). At 6 and 12 h, the movement VAS scores in groups A and B were lower than those in group C (p< 0.01). Groups A and B had similar VAS scores during the observation period. Groups A and B had higher levels of patient satisfaction than group C (p= 0.03 andp= 0.018, respectively). Opioid consumption was similar in the three groups. There were no significant differences in the other secondary outcomes amongst the three groups. No difference was found in hip rehabilitation or chronic pain during the follow-up period.ConclusionSingle-shot LIA with ropivacaine alone reduces the pain score during the first 12 postoperative hours and improves patients’ satisfaction with THA. LIA in the deep and superficial fascia and LIA in all layers have similar analgesic effects. LIA in the deep and superficial fascia may be an alternative method to LIA in all layers.

Objective To explore the optimal handling of the patella during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) without the intraoperative application of a tourniquet. Methods A total of 104 patients undergoing primary unilateral TKA without the intraoperative use of tourniquets from December 2018 to March 2019 in our center were included in this prospective randomized double‐blinded study, including 42 men and 62 women with a mean age of 66.3 ± 7.8 years and a minimum follow‐up of 1 year. Patients were randomly divided into an eversion group (n = 52) and a retraction group (n = 52) based on the intraoperative handling of the patella (eversion or lateral retraction). Primary outcome measures, including the visual analog scale at rest (rVAS) and the visual analog scale in motion (mVAS) for both anterior knee pain and thigh pain, opioid consumption, active range of motion (aROM), passive range of motion (pROM), the time needed for return of the straight‐leg raise (SLR), and 90° knee flexion, were recorded by an independent observer, who also noted secondary outcome measures, including operation time, length of stay (LOS), patella‐related (patellar tilt and baja) and other complications, knee swelling, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scores, and the 12‐item Short Form Health Survey (SF‐12) scores. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of baseline parameters. At 24, 48, and 72 h postoperatively (PO), patients in the eversion group experienced more severe thigh pain than those in the retraction group (24 h: 2.6 ± 0.8 vs 2.2 ± 0.5 [P = 0.003]; 48 h: 2.0 ± 0.5 vs 1.8 ± 0.4 [P = 0.026]; 72 h: 1.1 ± 0.4 vs 0.9 ± 0.5 [P = 0.012], respectively) and consumed more opioids (24 h: 22.3 ± 7.7 vs 15.1 ± 8.9 mg [P 0.05). Throughout the 1‐year follow‐up, patients in the retraction group showed significantly better function, including greater aROM and pROM at all time points (P 0.05). The eversion group had a significantly longer LOS (5.61 ± 1.92 vs 4.93 ± 1.45 days [P = 0.044]) and worse HSS score within 2 months PO (3 weeks PO: 77.4 ± 7.6 vs 81.7 ± 7.2 [P = 0.004]; 2 months PO: 85.1 ± 7.2 vs 88.5 ± 6.1 [P = 0.011]), but at the third follow‐up (6 months PO), the HSS score in the two groups became comparable (P > 0.05). No patellar tilt occurred in either group and there was only one case of patellar baja in the eversion group, with no significant between‐group difference (P > 0.05). Conclusion We recommend lateral retraction rather than eversion for optimal handling of the patella during TKA because the postoperative functional recovery is better and thigh pain is relatively less severe., We found significantly better range of motion (ROM), earlier return of straight‐leg raise (SLR), and shorter length of stay (LOS) in the patellar lateral retraction group. Although postoperative anterior knee pain was comparable in the two groups, patients in the patellar eversion group experienced significantly more severe thigh pain and consumed more opioids.

BackgroundWhether satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) in high hip dislocation after childhood pyogenic infection can be achieved as in Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) remains unclear.MethodsBetween September 2009 and December 2016, 151 primary THAs performed at our institution using similar SSO technique and prosthetic design were retrospectively reviewed. After excluding patients who met exclusion criteria, 29 patients were identified as high dislocation (Crowe IV) after childhood infection (HDACI) and 107 as Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Propensity score matching was used to select 29 Crowe IV DDH patients as a control group for the HDACI group with comparable preoperative conditions. Clinical and radiological outcomes and complication were compared and analyzed. The mean follow-up duration of the 2 groups was 5.0 years.ResultsThe mean Harris hip score (HHS) and the mean score in range of motion (ROM) domain of the modified Merle d’Aubigné-Postel (MAP) were 84.6 and 4.5 in the HDACI group, compared with 88.3 and 4.9 in the DDH group; there was significant difference between the 2 groups in these parameters (P= 0.015 and 0.035, respectively). Meanwhile, in the HDACI group, the median time of osteotomy union was 4 months and osteotomy nonunion rate was 3%; no significant difference was detected in the median time of osteotomy union and osteotomy nonunion rate between the 2 groups (P= 0.388 and 1.000, respectively). And no significant difference was found in the rate of complications between two groups.ConclusionsHDACI patients who received THA combined with SSO could achieve similar satisfactory results as DDH patients in Crowe type IV. The fixation technique of autogenous cortical bone struts had a positive influence on osteotomy healing of SSO in this specific setting.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) was once reserved for old patients with hip arthritis but has become more common in very young patients (≤25 years old) diagnosed with various joint disease that were not relieved with conservative treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate short to mid-term outcome of THA in patients younger than 25 years old.This retrospective study included 45 patients younger than 25 years (mean age 21.8 ± 2.14 years) who underwent THA. The surgical indications, implant selection, leg length discrepancy, medication history, radiographic outcome, survival and clinical results including the modified Harris hip score (mHHS) and SF-36 score were assessed.The mean follow-up period recorded for patients was 7.82 years (range 5-12 years). The most common diagnosis was avascular necrosis (37.7%) followed by ankylosing spondylitis (24.4%), developmental dysplasia of the hip (17.7%) and rheumatoid arthritis (8.8%). The preoperative leg length discrepancy (LLD), which ranged from 0.5-7 cm significantly improved after surgery ranging from 0-1 cm. The mean preoperative mHHS was 32.44 ± 18.90 compared with the postoperative score of 94.54 ± 5.81 (p 0.001). The preoperative p-value of SF-36 was lower compared to the postoperative value in all subgroups of SF-36 (p 0.001). At the latest follow-up there were no radiological signs of loosening and all the implants were classified as well-integrated.At present total hip arthroplasty is considered to be safe and a good solution for young patients below 25 years suffering from end-stage joint disease; however, longer follow-up is required to evaluate the long-term function and outcome of the prosthesis in order to restore the normal lifestyle of the patients.HINTERGRUND: Die Hüfttotalendoprothetik (THA) war früher alten Patienten mit Hüftgelenkarthrose vorbehalten, ist aber bei sehr jungen Patienten (≤25 Jahre), bei denen verschiedene frühe Gelenkerkrankungen diagnostiziert wurden, die mittels konservativer, nichtoperativer Therapieverfahren nicht behandelt werden konnten, häufiger geworden. Zweck dieser Studie war es, die kurz- bis mittelfristigen Ergebnisse der totalen Hüftgelenkarthroplastik (THA) bei Patienten unter 25 Jahren zu evaluieren.Diese retrospektive Studie schloss 45 Patienten ein, die jünger als 25 Jahre waren (Durchschnittsalter: 21,8 ± 2,14 Jahre) und sich einer THA unterzogen. Beurteilt wurden die chirurgischen Indikationen, die Implantatauswahl, die Beinlängendifferenz, die Medikationsgeschichte, das Röntgenergebnis, die Überlebensrate und die klinischen Ergebnisse einschließlich des modifizierten Harris-Hüft-Scores (mHHS) und des SF-36-Scores.Die durchschnittliche Nachbeobachtungszeit der Patienten betrug 7,82 Jahre (Range: 5–12 Jahre). Die häufigste Diagnose war die avaskuläre Nekrose (37,7%), gefolgt von der Spondylitis ankylosans (24,4%), der Entwicklungsdysplasie der Hüfte (17,7%) und der rheumatoiden Arthritis (8,8%). Die präoperative Beinlängendifferenz (LLD), die zwischen 0,5 und 7 cm lag, verbesserte sich nach der Operation im Bereich von 0–1 cm signifikant. Der mittlere präoperative mHHS betrug 32,44 ± 18,90 im Vergleich zum postoperativen Score von 94,54 ± 5,81 (mit p 0,001). Der präoperative p‑Wert von SF-36 war in allen Untergruppen von SF-36 im Vergleich zum postoperativen Wert relativ niedriger (mit p 0,001). Die letzte Nachbeobachtung zeigte, dass es keine radiologischen Anzeichen einer Lockerung gab und alle Implantate als gut integriert eingestuft wurden.Gegenwärtig gilt die Hüfttotalendoprothese als sicher und eine gute Lösung für junge Patienten unter 25 Jahren, die an einer Gelenkerkrankung im Endstadium leiden. Allerdings ist eine längere Nachbeobachtung erforderlich, um die langfristige Funktion und das Ergebnis der Prothese zu beurteilen, damit die Patienten ihren normalen Lebensstil wiederaufnehmen können.

Background With the use of tranexamic acid and control of the blood pressure during the operation, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) without tourniquet can be achieved. There is no exact standard for the control level of blood pressure during no tourniquet TKA. We explored the optimal level of blood pressure control during no tourniquet TKA surgery with the use of tranexamic acid in this study. Methods Patients underwent TKA were divided into three groups: the mean intraoperative systolic blood pressure in group A was < 90 mmHg, 90–100 mmHg in group B, > 100 mmHg in group C. Total blood loss (TBL), intraoperative blood loss, hidden blood loss, transfusion rate, maximum hemoglobin drop, operation time, and postoperative hospitalization days were recorded. Results Two hundred seventy-eight patients were enrolled, 82 in group A, 105 in group B, and 91 in group C. Group A (663.3 ± 46.0 ml) and group B (679.9 ± 57.1 ml) had significantly lower TBL than group C (751.7 ± 56.2 ml). Group A (120.2 ± 18.7 ml) had the lowest intraoperative blood loss than groups B and C. Group C (26.0 ± 4.1 g/l) had the largest Hb change than groups A and B. Group A (62.3 ± 4.7 min) had the shortest operation time. The incidence rate of postoperative hypotension in group A (8, 9.8%) was significantly greater than groups B and C. No significant differences were found in other outcomes. Conclusion The systolic blood pressure from 90 to 100 mmHg was the optimal strategy for no tourniquet primary TKA with tranexamic acid.

Single-radius (SR) prostheses and multiple-radii (MR) prostheses have different theoretical advantages; however, few comparative studies have been reported. The aim of the study was to compare mid-term clinical, radiological, and survival outcomes of SR and MR posterior-stabilized prostheses in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Two hundred consecutive patients who underwent TKA between January 2012 and July 2013 were enrolled in the SR group (100 patients) and an MR group (100 patients), with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. Functional, radiological, satisfaction, and survival rates were evaluated. There was a significantly higher range of motion (ROM) in the SR group than in the MR group (flexion, 123.65 ± 10.12 degrees vs. 115.52 ± 10.03 degrees, p

Objective To investigate whether the risk of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is high and to further identify the risk factors for postoperative dislocation in these patients. Methods This retrospective cohort study reviewed Crowe type IV DDH patients undergoing THA between January 2009 and December 2017 in our institution. Each Crowe type IV DDH patient was matched with three Crowe type I, II, or III DDH patients according to gender, side and date of operation. The primary outcome of this study was postoperative dislocation after THA. Occurrence, rate, classification, treatment and outcome of dislocation were documented in detail for all patients. The dislocation rates were compared between Crowe type IV DDH patients and Crowe type I, II, or III DDH patients. Demographic data, implant factors, and surgical factors were compared between the dislocation and no dislocation groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for dislocation in Crowe type IV hips. Results A total of 131 Crowe type IV hips were followed up for a mean of 76.5 ± 28.1 months. Three hundred and ninety‐three Crowe type I, II and III hips, including 261 type I hips, 94 type II hips, and 38 type III hips, were identified as controls and followed up for a mean of 76.4 ± 28.2 months. No significant difference was observed in follow‐up time between two groups (P = 0.804). One or more dislocations occurred in 22 of the 524 dysplasia hips (4.20%). Of the 22 dislocated hips, 20 hips (90.9%) were successfully managed with non‐operative treatment. Two patients (9.1%, one Crowe type I and one Crowe type IV) experienced recurrent dislocation and required revision surgery. Crowe type IV hips had a significantly higher postoperative dislocation rate than type I, II, and III hips (11.45% vs 1.78%, P

The efficacy of partial retention of well-fixed components during two-stage exchange for chronic total hip arthroplasty (THA) infection has remained unknown. A total of 14 patients with chronic infected THA were treated with damage control two-stage revision, including selective retention of the well-fixed femoral or acetabular component, aggressive debridement, antibiotic-laden cement spacer, antibiotic therapy, and delayed reimplantation. Indications for this treatment included chronic infected THAs with ingrown femoral or acetabular component and positive microbial growth with sensitive antibiotics. We excluded patients with acute infection; negative microbial growth; positive pathogen with high-virulence bacterial infections and multiple drug-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, fungi, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis; sinus formation; a prior failure for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) treatment; and obvious bone resorption in both femoral and acetabulum side. During the study period, this represented 3.3% (14/425) of the patients treated for infected THA. Minimum follow-up was three years. None of the 14 patients in this series were lost to follow-up. Successful treatment was defined according to a modified Delphi-based international multidisciplinary consensus. No repeated debridement and recurrence of infection occurred during the study period; no patient need chronic antibiotic suppression. Successful treatment of chronic PJI was achieved in all patients. Despite the high peri-operative complication rate, no severe consequences were observed. The mean Harris Hip Score was 86 (range, 82–92; SD, 3.3).

Objectives To identify predictors of length of stay (LOS) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program and evaluate the safety and cost-efficiency of the ERAS program with reduced LOS for unselected patients in a Chinese population. Methods A total of 311 consecutive, unselected patients undergoing primary THA at a single institution were retrospectively reviewed and divided into two groups: LOS ≤ 3 and LOS > 3 group. All patients were managed with the same ERAS protocol and went back home after discharge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine independent risk factors for LOS > 3. Harris Hip Score at 90-day follow-up, 90-day readmission rate, and hospitalization costs were compared between two groups. Results Multivariate regression analysis identified female gender (odds ratio [OR] = 2.623), living alone (OR = 4.127), and primary osteoarthritis of hip (OR = 3.565) to be correlated with LOS > 3. Preoperative hemoglobin (HB), postoperative HB, drain use, blood transfusion, diabetes, respiratory disease, osteoporosis, number of comorbidities, and CCI score showed no significant influence on LOS after adjusting for other risk factors in the multivariate model. Harris Hip Score and readmission rate at 90-day follow-up showed no significant differences between two groups. Patients in LOS > 3 group had approximately 3948.6 Chinese yuan higher hospital costs. Conclusion Female gender, living alone, and primary osteoarthritis of hip were identified as independent risk factors for prolonged LOS. The experience from our institution suggested aggressive management of comorbidities in the ERAS program can minimize the influence of comorbidities on LOS. The safety, efficiency, and costs-saving benefits of the ERAS program with reduced LOS for unselected patients was confirmed in this study.

Background To investigate the analgesic effect of perioperative use of duloxetine in patients received total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Method This prospective randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000033910). 100 patients were finally enrolled. The hospital pharmacy prepared small capsules containing either duloxetine or starch (placebo) which were all identical in appearance and weight (50:50). The 100 enrolled patients were given a capsule (containing either 60 mg duloxetine or 60 mg placebo) every night before sleep since preoperative day 2 till postoperative day 14 (17 days in all) by a nurse who were not involved in this trial. Other perioperative managements were the same in the two groups. The primary outcome was the VAS score, including rVAS (visual analogue scale at rest) and aVAS (visual analogue scale upon ambulation) throughout the perioperative period. The secondary outcomes included opioid consumption, range of motion, including both active range of motion (aROM) and passive range of motion (pROM) and adverse events. The patients were followed up everyday until 7 days after TKA, afterwards, they were followed up at the time of 3 weeks and 3 months after TKA. Result rVAS in duloxetine group were significantly less than placebo group throughout the postoperative period: 4.7 ± 2.3 vs 5.9 ± 2.6 (P = 0.016) at 24 h postoperative; 2.1 ± 1.6 vs 2.8 ± 1.7 (P = 0.037) at 7 days postoperative. In terms of aVAS, similarly, duloxetine group had less aVAS than placebo group throughout the postoperative period: 6.2 ± 2.1 vs 7.1 ± 2.2 (P = 0.039) at 24 h postoperative; 3.3 ± 1.7 vs 4.1 ± 2.0 (P = 0.034) at 7 days postoperative. Patients in duloxetine group consumed significantly less opioids per day than the placebo group: 24.2 ± 10.1 g vs 28.5 ± 8.3 g (P = 0.022) at 24 h postoperative; 2.7 ± 2.5 g vs 4.1 ± 2.6 g (P = 0.007) at 7 days postoperative. aROM in duloxetine group were significantly better than placebo group until postoperative day 6, the aROM became comparable between the two groups: 110.2 ± 9.9° in duloxetine group vs 107.5 ± 11.5° in control group (P = 0.211). In terms of pROM, duloxetine group had significantly better pROM until postoperative day 5, the pROM became comparable between the two groups: 103.8 ± 12.1° in duloxetine group vs 99.5 ± 10.8° in control group (P = 0.064). No significant difference was found between the two groups in the rates of dizziness, bleeding, sweating, fatigue and dryness of mouth. In the placebo group, more patients got nausea/vomiting and constipation (P P Conclusion Several other RCTs have already mentioned the analgesic effect of duloxetine, but not in the immediate postoperative period. In this study, we found duloxetine could reduce acute postoperative pain in the immediate postoperative period and decrease the opioids consumption as well as accelerating postoperative recovery, without increasing the risk of adverse medication effects in patients undergoing TKA. Duloxetine could act as a good supplement in multimodal pain management protocol for patients undergoing TKA. Trial registration statement This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000033910). The date of registration was 06/16/2020.

Background The reliability of robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) has been previously reported. In this study, we evaluated the predictive accuracy of the RA-TKA system in determining the required bone resection and implant size preoperatively and its effect on intraoperative decision-making. Methods Data on the outcomes of RA-TKA procedures performed in our department were prospectively collected. A three-dimensional model of the femur, tibia, and fibula was reconstructed using standard computed tomography (CT) images. The model was used preoperatively to predict bone required resection for the femur and tibia and implant size. Intraoperatively, the images were registered to the local anatomy to create a patient-specific model for decision-making, including real-time measurement of the medial-to-lateral difference in the extension/flexion gap and TKA component alignment. Differences between predicted and real bone resections and implant size were evaluated, and the post-TKA mechanical axis of the lower limb and difference in medial-to-lateral flexion/extension gap were measured. Results The analysis was based on the data of 28 patients who underwent TKA to treat severe osteoarthritis. The RA-TKA system successfully predicted the femoral and tibial component within one implant size in 28/28 cases (100%). For the 168 bone resections performed, including both femoral and tibial cuts, the resection was within 1 mm of the predicted value in 120/168 (71%) of the cuts. The actual versus predicted bone resection was statistically different only for the lateral tibial plateau (p = 0.018). The medial-to-lateral gap difference was between − 1 and 1 mm, except in one case. The achieved lower limb alignment was accurate overall, with the alignment being within Conclusions The RA-TKA system provided considerable pre- and intraoperative surgical assistance to achieve accurate bone resection, appropriate component sizing, and postoperative alignment after RA-TKA.

Introduction Given the possibility of inadvertent bacterial contamination of salvaged blood, the use of cell salvage is relatively contraindicated in cases of reimplantation for chronic hip periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). However, there are no published data supporting this assertion. The purpose of the current study was to compare the reinfection rate and rate of postoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) in second-stage reimplantation for PJI with or without intraoperative cell salvage reinfusion. Materials and methods We identified 125 patients who underwent two-stage exchange for chronic hip PJI between November 2012 and April 2019. The groups of patients who had (n = 61) and had not (n = 64) received intraoperative cell salvage reinfusion were compared with respect to the curative infection-free rate. Moreover, we compared the need for postoperative ABT and identified independent factors associated with ABT using multiple regression analysis. Results The log-rank survival curve with an endpoint of infection eradication failure was not significantly different between the cell salvage group (98.4%, 95% CI 95.3–99.9%) and the control group (95.3%, 95% CI 90.2–99.9%) at one year (log rank, P = .330). The rates of postoperative ABT in the cell salvage group were significantly lower than those in the control group (11.5% vs 26.6%, P = .041). In multivariable models, patient age, body mass index, preoperative hemoglobin level, and intraoperative cell salvage were independent predictors of ABT exposure (P Conclusions The use of cell salvage during reimplantation in two-stage exchange for chronic hip PJI did not appear to increase the reinfection rate, while it significantly reduced the rate of postoperative allogeneic red blood transfusion. Greater age, lower BMI, lower preoperative hemoglobin, and non-intraoperative cell salvage reinfusion were associated with higher rate of allogeneic red blood transfusion.

Background Local infiltration analgesia (LIA) and adductor canal block (ACB) provide postoperative analgesia for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). ACB blocks the saphenous nerve and has smaller impacts on quadriceps muscle weakness. ACB theoretically does not have enough analgesic effects on posterior sensory nerves. LIA may increase its analgesic effects on the posterolateral knee. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether ACB combined with a LIA cocktail of ropivacaine, morphine, and betamethasone has superior analgesic effect than LIA for TKA. Methods A total of 86 patients were assessed for eligibility from February 2019 to May 2019. 26 of those were excluded, and 60 patients were divided into 2 groups by computer-generated random number. Group A (LIA group) received LIA cocktail of ropivacaine, morphine and betamethasone. Group B (LIA+ ACB group) received ultrasound-guided ACB and LIA cocktail of ropivacaine, morphine and betamethasone. Postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) resting or active pain scores, opioid consumption, range of motion (ROM), functional tests, complications and satisfaction rates were measured. The longest follow-up was 2 years. Results Two groups have no differences in terms of characteristics, preoperative pain or function (P > 0.05). ACB combined with LIA had significantly lower resting and active VAS pain scores, better ROM, better sleeping quality and higher satisfaction rates than LIA alone within 72 h postoperatively (P Conclusions Adductor canal block combined with Local infiltration analgesia provide better early pain control. Although the small statistical benefit may not result in minimal clinically important difference, Adductor canal block combined with Local infiltration analgesia also reduce opioid requirements, improve sleeping quality, and do not increase the complication rate. Therefore, Adductor canal block combined with Local infiltration analgesia still have good application prospects as an effective pain management for total knee arthroplasty.

Background The preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients undergoing re-revision arthroplasty is crucial, so we evaluated whether plasma levels of D-dimer and fibrin degradation product (FDP) could aid such diagnosis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data on patients who underwent re-revision hip or knee arthroplasty at our institute during 2008–2020. Patients were stratified into those who experienced PJI or not, based on 2013 International Consensus Meeting Criteria. Plasma levels of D-dimer and FDP as well as levels of the traditional inflammatory biomarkers C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and interleukin-6 were compared between the groups. The ability of these biomarkers to diagnose PJI was assessed based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) curve, for which predictive cut-offs were optimized based on the Youden index. Results Based on a cut-off of 0.80 mg/L, D-dimer gave an AUC of 0.595, high sensitivity of 85.7% but poor specificity of 47.8%. Based on a cut-off of 2.80 mg/L, FDP gave an AUC of 0.550, poor sensitivity of 56.5% and poor specificity of 52.9%. CRP, ESR and interleukin-6 showed much better diagnostic ability, with AUCs > 0.82. The combination of CRP and interleukin-6 gave an AUC of 0.877, high sensitivity of 91.7% and acceptable specificity of 78.3%. Conclusions Plasma levels of D-dimer and FDP may be inappropriate for diagnosing PJI in patients undergoing re-revision arthroplasty, whereas the combination of serum CRP and interleukin-6 may be effective.

BackgroundNontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (NONFH) is a devastating disease, and the risk factors associated with progression into collapse after core decompression (CD) remain poorly defined. Therefore, we aim to define risk factors associated with collapse-free survival (CFS) after CD of precollapse NONFH and to propose a nomogram for individual risk prediction.MethodsAccording to the baseline characteristics, clinical information, radiographic evaluations, and laboratory examination, a nomogram was developed using a single institutional cohort of patients who received multiple drilling for precollapse NONFH between January 2007 and December 2019 to predict CFS after CD of precollapse NONFH. Furthermore, we usedCstatistics, calibration plot, and Kaplan-Meier curve to test the discriminative ability and calibration of the nomogram to predict CFS.ResultsOne hundred and seventy-three patients who underwent CD for precollapse NONFH were retrospectively screened and included in the present study. Using a multiple Cox regression to identify relevant risk factors, the following risk factors were incorporated in the prediction of CFS: acute onset of symptom (HR, 2.78; 95% CI, 1.03–7.48;P= 0.043), necrotic location of Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) C1 and C2 (HR, 3.67; 95% CI, 1.20–11.27;P= 0.023), necrotic angle in the range of 250–299°(HR, 5.08; 95% CI, 1.73–14.93;P= 0.003) and > 299° (HR, 9.96; 95% CI, 3.23–30.70;P< 0.001), and bone marrow edema (BME) before CD (HR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.02-4.02;P= 0.042). TheCstatistics was 0.82 for CFS which revealed good discriminative ability and calibration of the nomogram.ConclusionsIndependent predictors of progression into collapse after CD for precollapse NONFH were identified to develop a nomogram predicting CFS. In addition, the nomogram could divide precollapse NONFH patients into prognosis groups and performed well in internal validation.

Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Objective Primary osseous sarcomas originating from the spine and pelvis are rare and usually portend inferior prognoses. Currently, the standard treatment for spinal and pelvic sarcomas is surgical resection, but the poor prognosis limits the benefits to postoperative patients. This study aims to identify the independent prognostic factors of cancer-specific survival (CSS) in postoperative patients with primary spinal and pelvic sarcomas and construct a nomogram for predicting these patients’ 3-, 5-, and 10-year CSS probability. Methods A total of 452 patients were enrolled from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. They were divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify these patients’ CSS-related independent prognostic factors. Then, those factors were used to construct a prognostic nomogram for predicting the 3-, 5-, and 10-year CSS probability, whose predictive performance and clinical value were verified by the calibration curve, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Finally, a mortality risk stratification system was constructed. Results Sex, histological type, tumor stage, and tumor grade were identified as CSS-related independent prognostic factors. A nomogram with high predictive performance and good clinical value to predict the 3-, 5-, and 10-year CSS probability was constructed, on which a mortality risk stratification system was constructed based to divide these patients into 3 mortality risk subgroups effectively. Conclusions This study constructed and validated a clinical nomogram to predict CSS in postoperative patients with primary spinal and pelvic sarcomas. It could assist clinicians in classifying these patients into different mortality risk subgroups and realize sarcoma-specific management.

Background: In this study, we investigated the in vitro and in vivo chondrogenic capacity of kartogenin (KGN)–enhanced bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) for cartilage regeneration. Purpose: To determine (1) whether functionalized nanographene oxide (NGO) can effectively deliver KGN into BMSCs and (2) whether KGN would enhance BMSCs during chondrogenesis in vitro and in vivo in an animal model. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Functionalized NGO with line chain amine-terminated polyethylene glycol (PEG) and branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) were used to synthesize biocompatible NGO-PEG-BPEI (PPG) and for loading hydrophobic KGN molecules noncovalently via π–π stacking and hydrophobic interactions (PPG-KGN). Then, PPG-KGN was used for the intracellular delivery of hydrophobic KGN by simple mixing and co-incubation with BMSCs to acquire KGN-enhanced BMSCs. The chondrogenic efficacy of KGN-enhanced BMSCs was evaluated in vitro. In vivo, osteoarthritis (OA) was induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection in rats. A total of 5 groups were established: normal (OA treated with nothing), phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; intra-articular injection of PBS), PPG-KGN (intra-articular injection of PPG-KGN), BMSCs (intra-articular injection of BMSCs), and BMSCs + PPG-KGN (intra-articular injection of PPG-KGN–preconditioned BMSCs). At 6 and 9 weeks after the surgical induction of OA, the rats received intra-articular injections of PPG-KGN, BMSCs, or KGN-enhanced BMSCs. At 14 weeks after the surgical induction of OA, radiographic and behavioral evaluations as well as histological analysis of the knee joints were performed. Results: The in vitro study showed that PPG could be rapidly uptaken in the first 4 hours after incubation, reaching saturation at 12 hours and accumulating in the lysosome and cytoplasm of BMSCs. Thus, PPG-KGN could enhance the efficiency of the intracellular delivery of KGN, which showed a remarkably high chondrogenic differentiation capacity of BMSCs. When applied to an OA model of cartilage injuries in rats, PPG-KGN–preconditioned BMSCs contributed to protection from joint space narrowing, pathological mineralization, OA development, and OA-induced pain, as well as improved tissue regeneration, as evidenced by radiographic, weightbearing, and histological findings. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that KGN-enhanced BMSCs showed markedly improved capacities for chondrogenesis and articular cartilage repair. We believe that this work demonstrates that a multifunctional nanoparticle-based drug delivery system could be beneficial for stem cell therapy. Our results present an opportunity to reverse the symptoms and pathophysiology of OA. Clinical Relevance: The intracellular delivery of KGN to produce BMSCs with enhanced chondrogenic potential may offer a new approach for the treatment of OA.

Background The aim of the present study was to compare the outcomes of patients who underwent different sequences of ipsilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods We retrospectively identified 47 patients who underwent TKA followed by ipsilateral THA (THA-TKA) and 36 patients who received THA subsequent to ipsilateral TKA (TKA-THA) for rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis between January 2008 and April 2014. Twenty-eight patients were selected for each group after case-control matching with preoperative demographics and protheses of THA. Clinical scores, radiographic results, complication rates, and survivorship were compared. The median duration of follow-up was 110 (range 80–149) months. Results Both groups showed significant improvement in Harris Hip Scores, Knee Society Score, and Short Form-12 at the last follow-up compared to baseline (p p = .939 and .187). Conclusions Patients who underwent ipsilateral THA and TKA with different sequences achieved similar favorable outcomes. Total joint arthroplasty can be performed safely with excellent outcomes in patients with a history of prior ipsilateral THA or TKA.

Background To determine whether multiple drilling is effective in postponing the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in early-stage nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Methods We identified 514 patients who were diagnosed with early-stage ONFH between January 2008 and December 2018. One hundred ninety-six patients underwent multiple drilling, and 318 patients had a natural course of progression. One hundred fifty-nine patients were selected for each group after case-control matching for preoperative demographics and modified Ficat and Arlet stage. The rates of THA conversion were compared. We also performed Cox regression to identify risk factors associated with THA conversion in patients who underwent multiple drilling. Results Kaplan-Meier survivorship with an endpoint of THA for nontraumatic reasons were not significantly different between the multiple drilling group (75.6, 95% confidence interval 67.8–83.4%) and the natural course group (72.2, 95% confidence interval 64.8–79.6%) at 5 years (log-rank, P = .191). In the Cox regression model, a larger extent of necrotic lesion, bone marrow edema (BME), and higher postoperative work intensity significantly increased the risk of THA conversion (P P Conclusions Multiple drilling is not effective in reducing the rate of THA conversion in early-stage nontraumatic ONFH. The risk of conversion to THA after multiple drilling is increased by a larger extent of necrotic lesion, presence of BME, and higher postoperative work intensity in patients with early-stage ONFH.

Background Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of duloxetine in reducing postoperative pain and opioid consumption. However, the effect of duloxetine on total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of oral duloxetine in THA. Methods We enrolled 96 patients in this randomized controlled trial. These patients were randomized (1,1) to either the duloxetine group or the placebo group and received daily doses of 60 mg duloxetine or placebo, respectively, from 2 d pre-operation to 14 d after surgery. The primary outcome was pain severity upon movement measured by a visual analogue scale (VAS). The secondary outcomes included VAS scores for resting pain, morphine consumption, Harris Hip Score, patient satisfaction at discharge, length of postoperative hospital stay, and adverse events. Results Patients in the duloxetine group had significantly lower pain severity scores upon movement within 3 postoperative weeks (p Conclusions Although it did not result in a clinically meaning reduction in pain after total hip arthroplasty, perioperative administration of 60 mg of duloxetine daily significantly alleviated pain in the postoperative 3 weeks and morphine requirements during the postoperative 48 h. Therefore, duloxetine still shows promise in optimizing the multimodal pain-management protocols in total hip arthroplasty.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of aspirin with rivaroxaban following treatment with enoxaparin for prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after hip fracture surgery (HFS). Methods A total of 390 patients were enrolled in the trial. According to an odd or even number at the end of their registration number, the patients were divided into the aspirin group (n = 198) and the rivaroxaban group (n = 192). All patients were given enoxaparin subcutaneous injection after the operation and returned to the routine dose the next day until postoperative day five. The patients in the aspirin group received an additional 16 days of thromboprophylaxis with 100 mg of aspirin once daily. The rivaroxaban group was assigned to receive an additional 16 days of thromboprophylaxis with 10 mg of oral rivaroxaban once daily. Patients were followed for 90 days regarding VTE and bleeding complications. Results The incidence of VTE in the aspirin group and rivaroxaban group was 6.6% (13/198) and 5.7% (11/192), respectively (P = 0.83). The rate of major bleeding events occurred in two (1.0%) patients in the aspirin group and in one patient (0.5%) in the rivaroxaban group (P = 1.0). A combination of major bleeding and clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding occurred in five patients (2.5%) in the aspirin group and in six patients (3.1%) in the rivaroxaban group (P = 0.77). During the 90-day follow-up, a pulmonary embolism developed in one patient (0.5%) in the aspirin group and none in the rivaroxaban group (P = 1.0). Conclusions Extended prophylaxis for 21 days with aspirin was equivalent to the direct oral anticoagulant rivaroxaban after hip fracture surgery with an initial 5-day postoperative course of enoxaparin. Aspirin may be an effective, safe, convenient, and cheap alternative for extended prophylaxis after hip fracture surgery.

Background The purpose of this study is to analyze the 10-year outcomes of cementless, modular total hip arthroplasty (THA) in adult patients who had high dislocation secondary to childhood pyogenic arthritis. Methods We retrospectively followed 56 consecutive patients who underwent cementless, modular THA for the late sequelae of childhood septic arthritis of the hip from 2001 to 2011. There were 23 men and 33 women with a mean age of 47 years (24 to 68). Of the 56 hips, 25 were classified as Crowe type III and 31 as type IV. Mean follow-up was 10.7 years. Results One hip with a quiescent period of 23 years had recurrence of infection. Revision surgery was performed in 2 patients because of loosening and breakage of femoral stem and new infection with no correlation with childhood sepsis, respectively. The mean Harris hip scores improved from 44.2 points preoperatively to 87.5 points at final follow-up. Similarly, the Hip dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and hip pain also significantly improved at the latest follow-up. The mean acetabular cup abduction was 40.8° and the mean anteversion 27.8°, respectively. There were 5 cases of transient nerve palsy and 5 cases of intraoperative fracture. Conclusion THA can reliably restore the abnormal anatomy and provide good results in these young and active patients who had high hip dislocation secondary to childhood pyogenic arthritis with a relatively high incidence of complications. However, these complications can be treated.

Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a proven surgical option for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis in terms of improved function and pain relief. A prospective study was conducted to examine and evaluate the effect and impact of zolpidem postoperatively on the sleep quality, pain alleviation, and quality of life of patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty. Methods A total of 160 patients was randomized 1:1 to receive either zolpidem or placebo 2 days preoperative to 5 days postoperatively. Pain scores using visual analog scale (VAS), sleep quality using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Epworth Sleepiness Scale, quality of life using QoR-40, and Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score were recorded. The total amount of opioid analgesics and antiemetics taken was recorded as well. Results Patients in the intervention group had higher VAS score and took less analgesic and antiemetic. Moreover, the study demonstrated that QoR-40 was higher and Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score had relatively lower mean value (P

Background The effect of extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO) with immediate cerclage wire fixation on the scene of chronic periprosthetic joint infection on infection eradication and the osteotomy healing remains unclear. Methods One hundred seventeen patients who underwent two-stage revision total hip arthroplasty for chronic periprosthetic joint infection were enrolled in the study. The minimum follow-up was 2 years. Of these, 48 patients had underwent ETO and immediate cerclage wire fixation during the first-stage surgery, while 69 did not undergo ETO or any other osteotomy. In addition, 18 patients had underwent ETO in the second-stage reimplantation surgery. Repeated debridement, curative rate of infection, and complications were compared between the 2 groups. Meanwhile, osteotomy healing between the first and second osteotomy were also compared. Results The repeated debridement rate and curative rate of infection were 2.1% and 95.8% in the ETO group, compared with 13.0% and 82.6% in the non-ETO group; there were significant difference between the 2 groups in these parameters (P = .037 and .030, respectively). Meanwhile, osteotomy healing rate was 93.8% in first-stage surgery with infection scene and 100% in second-stage surgery without infection; no significant difference was detected in osteotomy healing rate and time to healing (P = .278 and .803, respectively). The rate of complication was similar in both groups. Conclusions ETO combined with immediate cerclage wire fixation does not appear to reduce the rate of infection eradication. There was no harmful effect on complication rate and osteotomy healing.

Background Geriatric hip fracture patients are particularly susceptible to blood loss and venous thromboembolism (VTE) during hemiarthroplasty, yet relatively few studies have examined the safety and efficacy of tranexamic acid (TXA) in these patients. Methods This cohort study of hip fracture patients (≥65 years) undergoing hemiarthroplasty between January 2013 and September 2016 involved 289 patients who received 15 mg/kg TXA prior to surgery and 320 who received no TXA. All patients underwent a fast-track program including nutrition, blood, and pain management; VTE prophylaxis; early mobilization; and early intake. The primary outcome was red cell transfusion requirement. Secondary outcomes included blood loss, hemoglobin (Hb) level, VTE, adverse events and length of hospital stay. Multivariate logistic regression and meta-analysis of the literature were also performed to control for confounding factors and identify risk factors of red cell transfusion. Results The proportion of patients receiving at least 1 U of erythrocytes was significantly lower in the TXA group (8.65%) than in the control group (24.06%, OR 0.299, p

Background Single-radius (SR) prostheses and multi-radius (MR) prostheses have different theoretical advantages; however, there has been a paucity of evaluations comparing the two. This study was designed to compare the 10-year clinical, radiological, and survival outcomes of SR and MR posterior-stabilized prostheses in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods In this retrospective cohort study, 220 consecutive patients undergoing TKA between October 2006 and October 2007 were divided into the SR group (106 patients, Stryker Scorpio NRG) and the MR group (114 patients, DePuy Sigma PFC), with a minimum follow-up of 10 years. Clinical, functional, and radiological outcomes, as well as satisfaction rates and survival results, were evaluated. Results Hospital for Special Surgery and Short Form-12 health survey scores were all significantly improved in both groups at the final follow-up (P

Study Design Comparative study Objective To compare manual and deep learning-based automated measurement of Cobb angle in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Methods We proposed a fully automated framework to measure the Cobb angle of AIS patients. Whole-spine images of 500 AIS individuals were collected. 200 digital radiographic (DR) images were labeled manually as training set, and the remaining 300 images were used to validate by mean absolute error (MAE), Pearson or spearman correlation coefficients, and intra/interclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). The relationship between accuracy of vertebral boundary identification and the subjective image quality score was evaluated. Results The PT, MT, and TL/L Cobb angles were measured by the automated framework within 300 milliseconds. Remarkable 2.92° MAE, .967 ICC, and high correlation coefficient (r = .972) were obtained for the major curve. The MAEs of PT, MT, and TL/L were 3.04°, 2.72°, and 2.53°, respectively. The ICCs of these 3 curves were .936, .977, and .964, respectively. 88.7% (266/300) of cases had a difference range of ±5°, with 84.3% (253/300) for PT, 89.7% (269/300) for MT, and 93.0% (279/300) for TL/L. The decreased bone/soft tissue contrast (2.94 vs 3.26; P=.039) and bone sharpness (2.97 vs 3.35; P=.029) were identified in the images with MAE exceeding 5°. Conclusion The fully automated framework not only identifies the vertebral boundaries, vertebral sequences, the upper/lower end vertebras and apical vertebra, but also calculates the Cobb angle of PT, MT, and TL/L curves sequentially. The framework would shed new light on the assessment of AIS curvature.
