Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a major cause of hip arthritis and ultimately total hip arthroplasty. Due to the dysplastic acetabulum, how to place the acetabular cup becomes a challenge in acetabular reconstruction for such patients. Especially in the acetabula classified as Crowe typeⅡand type Ⅲ, the dislocation of the femoral head causes bone defects above the true acetabulum, which will affect the stability of the acetabular cup when the acetabular reconstruction is performed at the true acetabulum. Many acetabular reconstruction methods such as bone grafting, the use of small acetabular cups, socket medialization technique, and high hip center technique are used to increase the host bone coverage of the cup. However, each method has its own shortcomings that can not be ignored so that there is no unified conclusion on the acetabular reconstruction methods for Crowe typeⅡand type Ⅲ hip dysplasia. This article summarized and evaluated various reconstruction methods in combination with the acetabular morphology of DDH, and put forward the research direction in the future.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of 3D-printed navigation template using in total hip arthroplasty(THA)for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHODS: Twenty five patients with DDH underwent total hip arthroplasty from February 2016 to May 2018 were analyzed retrospectively, including 4 males and 21 females, aged from 40 to 75 years old. Among them, 5 cases were Crowe typeⅡ, 14 cases were Crowe type Ⅲ and 6 cases were Crowe type Ⅳ. Twelve cases of them underwent THA with the 3D printing navigation plate, another 13 cases underwent the same operation but without the aid of navigation templates. All patients were treated by the same operators. The operating time, intra- and post-operative hemorrhage and Harris Hip Score(HHS) at six months postoperativelywere compared, anteversion angle, abduction angle and the distance from rotation center to the ischial tuberosity connection between ipsilateral and contralateral sides were also compared. RESULTS: All of the patients were followed up for 12 to 26 months. The operation time, intra- and post-operative hemorrhage and Harris score in the 3D printing group were better than those in the conventional hip replacement group( CONCLUSION The 3D-printed operation navigation template technique is an individualized, accurate and promisingtechnique for THA with DDH.

OBJECTIVE: To review research advances of revision surgery after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) for patients with Crowe type Ⅳ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHODS: The recent literature on revision surgery after primary THA in patients with Crowe type Ⅳ DDH was reviewed. The reasons for revision surgery were analyzed and the difficulties of revision surgery, the management methods, and the related prosthesis choices were summarized. RESULTS: Patients with Crowe type Ⅳ DDH have small anteroposterior diameter of the acetabulum, large variation in acetabular and femoral anteversion angles, severe soft tissue contractures, which make both THA and revision surgery more difficult. There are many reasons for patients undergoing revision surgery after primary THA, mainly due to aseptic loosening of the prosthesis. Therefore, it is necessary to restore anatomical structures in primary THA, as much as possible and reduce the generation of wear particles to avoid postoperative loosening of the prosthesis. Due to the anatomical characteristics of Crowe type Ⅳ DDH, the patients have acetabular and femoral bone defects, and the repair and reconstruction of bone defects become the key to revision surgery. The acetabular side is usually reconstructed with the appropriate acetabular cup or combined metal block, Cage, or custom component depending on the extent of the bone defect, while the femoral side is preferred to the S-ROM prosthesis. In addition, the prosthetic interface should be ceramic-ceramic or ceramic-highly cross-linked polyethylene wherever possible. CONCLUSION The reasons leading to revision surgery after primary THA in patients with Crowe type Ⅳ DDH and the surgical difficulties have been clarified, and a large number of clinical studies have proposed corresponding revision modalities based on which good early- and mid-term outcomes have been obtained, but further follow-up is needed to clarify the long-term outcomes. With technological advances and the development of new materials, personalized prostheses for these patients are expected to become a reality.
