Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical efficiency and safety of femoral head reduction osteotomy for young patients with coxa magna or coxa plana.Methods Between June 2012 and September 2015,the clinical characteristics of 12 patients (13 hips) with coxa magna or coxa plana who underwent femoral head reduction osteotomy were analyzed retrospectively.There were 6 males (7 hips) and 6 females (6 hips) with average age 18.1 years (range,10-25 years).The etiology of the femoral head deformity was multiple epiphyseal dysplasia in 6 hips and Legg-Calvé-Perthes sequela in 7 hips.The head reduction osteotomy was conducted through the surgical hip dislocation approach combined with extended retinacular soft-tissue flap extending technique.All patients underwent simultaneous periacetabular osteotomy and relative lengthening of the femoral neck,of which four also underwent proximal femur derotational osteotomy.All patients received the standardized rehabilitation procedures.The postoperative complications,gaits,the range of motion (ROM) of the hip,Harris hip scores,iHOT scores and VAS were analyzed postoperatively.In addition,the lateral center-edge (LCE) angle,sphericity index and coverage rate of femoral head were assessed as well.Results The average follow-up duration was 28.8 months (range,12-45 months).All patients achieved osteotomy healing of the femoral head and greater trochanter with average healing time 3.7 months (range,3-7 months).Nine of 12 patients had significant gaits improvement.The Harris hip scores (81.08± 12.36 vs.88.38 ± 8.96,t=2.41,P=0.033),iHOT score (51.90± 15.07 vs.67.69±8.70,t=3.63,P=0.003),LCE angle (-1.82°±16.57° vs.36.02°±7.72°,t=10.52,P=0.000),sphericity index of anteroposterior pelvic radiographs (71.08%± 10.32% vs.81.22%±8.61%,t=7.17,P=0.000) and the coverage index (48.79%±11.85% vs.87.46%± 10.44%,t=8.56,P=0.000) were all significantly improved when compared to those preoperatively.The VAS score (4.46± 2.37 vs.1.23±0.93,t=4.25,P=0.001) was significantly decreased when compared with that preoperatively.However,for the sphericity index of 65° false profile (78.96%± 10.39% vs.80.36%±8.42%,t=0.411,P=0.688) and the average hip ROM (264.62°± 32.05° vs.255.00°±40.31°,t=0.89,P=0.391),they did not achieve statistical significant difference.One case of femoral head necrosis site was localized at the lateral-superior part of femoral head,and there was no progression after 3 years follow-up.Moreover,no revision or total hip arthroplasty were observed due to other complications (osteoarthritis,hip pain or non-union).Conclusion The femoral head reduction osteotomy can correct deformity,improve femoral head sphericity,relieve pain and improve gaits and hip function.This procedure leads to satisfied clinical outcomes for patients with coxa magna or coxa plana in early follow-up.
