OBJECTIVETo compare differences between Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with secondary acetabulum and Crowe IV DDH without secondary acetabulum,and determine whether it is necessary to divide Crowe IV DDH into two subtypes.
METHODSFrom June 2007 to May 2015,145 hips of 112 Crowe N patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) using S-ROM stem were divided into two groups: secondary acetabulum formaton group (group A) and no secondary acetabulum formaton group (group B). In group A,there were 12 females, 96 males,with an average age of (39.38 ± 11.19) years old. In group B, there were 2 females, 35 males, with an average age of (38.19 ± 10.92) years old. All the patients were evaluated by using Harris Hip Score. Radiographic evaluations were made preoperatively and during follow up. The differences between two groups were compared on dislocation height, canal flare index (CFI), subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSTO) usage, pre- and post-operation Harris scores, complications.
RESULTSThe dislocation height for group A was (4.74 ± 1.57) cm, while the dislocation height for group B was (3.12 ± 1.15) cm. Significantly difference was detected between two groups. The CFI for group A was 2.69 ± 0.68, while the CFI for group B was 3.42 ± 0.79, and the significantly difference was detected between two groups. Harris scores were totally improved from 58.18 ± 15.67 preoperatively to 91.20 ± 3.79 post-operatively and the difference was significant. Pre-operative Harris scores was 58.1 ± 15.3 in group A, 58.3 ± 16.9 in group B. Post-operative Harris scores was 91.0 ± 4.1 in group A, 91.0 ± 5.1 in group B. No significant difference was found on Harris scores between A and B preoperatively and post-operatively. Complications of 4 cases peri-prosthesis fracture, 4 cases dislocation and 4 cases nerve injury occur in group A; While only one case dislocation and one case nerve injury occur in group B. No statistical significance was detected.
CONCLUSIONCrowe IV DDH with secondary acetabulum is significantly different from Crowe IV DDH without secondary acetabulum on dislocation height and femoral morphology, which causes the different selections of surgical techniques (SSTO usage or not). These important differences in fundamental parameters indicate the necessity to further divide Crowe IV DDH into IVA and IVB two subtypes.

BACKGROUND: Cotyloplasty is a technique that involves making a perforation of the medial wall of a shallow acetabulum and then inserting an acetabular cup with the medial aspect of its dome beyond the Kohler line. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) using cotyloplasty with focusing on the amount of medial cup protrusion. METHODS: Sixteen hips with insufficient acetabulum in sixteen patients were treated by cementless THA using cotyloplasty. The average patient age was 47 years. The diagnoses included dysplastic hip (12) and infection sequelae (4). All the patients were followed up for at least 2 years. Clinically, the Harris hip scores were assessed and radiologically, the amount of cup protrusion, the hip center movement and cup fixation were evaluated. RESULTS: The average Harris hip score improved from 57 to 94 postoperatively. The average proportion of cup surface beyond the Kohler line was 44.1% and the hip centers were medialized by an average of 23 mm. Stable fixation of the acetabular cup was achieved in all the cases except one. In this one case, migration of the cup was detected 2 weeks postoperatively and a reoperation was performed. CONCLUSIONS: Using cotyloplasty, good coverage of the acetabular cup was obtained without a block bone graft, and the hip joint centers were medialized. However, the safety margin for the amount of protrusion should be established.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the methods of restoring normal level of rotation center of the hip and limb length in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) using total hip arthroplasty (THA).
METHODSFrom January 2000 to January 2003, total hip arthroplasties were performed for 21 patients (26 hips) with OA secondary to DDH. There were 19 females and 2 males with an average age of 51 years (range from 40 to 66 years). Based on radiographic classification of Crowe, there were 12 in type I, 5 in type II, 2 in type III and IV respectively. In addition to the standard procedure of THA, the methods of restoring normal level of rotating center of the hip included structural bone autografting and medialization of the cup. The methods of limb length restoration included carefully preoperative planning and intraoperative soft tissue release. During the follow-up period at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and then annually thereafter, rotation center of the hip and limb length were assessed radiographically. Harris score system (HSS) was used for clinical evaluation.
RESULTSAll the patients were followed up for a mean time of 26.4 months (range from 12 to 48 months). All the patients had restoration of the normal level of rotation center of the hip. At the latest follow-up, Harris score was improved from preoperative 35 points (range from 12 to 68 points) to postoperative 94 points (range from 74 to 100 points).
CONCLUSIONIn addition to standard procedure, the restoration of normal level of rotation center of the hip could be achieved by structural bone autografting and medialization of the cup in THA for patients with DDH. Careful preoperative planning and intraoperative soft tissue release could restore limb length.

Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery 2014;6(2):127-137
Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) was developed for the treatment of dysplastic hips in 1995. In CPO, the exposure of osteotomy sites and osteotomy of the ischium are made in the same manner as Bernese periacetabular osteotomy, and iliac and pubic osteotomies are performed in the same manner as rotational acetabular osteotomy. We studied the dynamic instabilities of 25 dysplastic hips before and after CPO using triaxial accelerometry. Overall magnitude of acceleration was significantly decreased from 2.30 +/- 0.57 m/sec2 preoperatively to 1.55 +/- 0.31 m/sec2 postoperatively. Pain relief and improvement of acetabular coverage resulting from acetabular reorientation seem to be related with reduction of dynamic instabilities of dysplastic hips. Isokinetic muscle strengths of 24 hips in 22 patients were measured preoperatively and after CPO. At 12 months postoperatively, the mean muscle strength exceeded the preoperative values. These results seem to be obtained due to no dissection of abductor muscles in CPO. The preoperative presence of acetabular cysts did not influence the results of CPO. An adequate rotation of the acetabular fragment induced cyst remodeling. Satisfactory results were obtained clinically and radiographically after CPO in patients aged 50 years or older. CPO alone for the treatment of severe dysplastic hips classified as subluxated hips of Severin group IV-b with preoperative CE angles of up to -20degrees could restore the acetabular coverage, weight-bearing area and medialization of the hip joint. CPO without any other combined procedure, as a treatment for 17 hips in 16 patients with Perthes-like deformities, produced good mid-term clinical and radiographic results. We have been performing CPO in conjunction with osteochondroplasty for the treatment of acatabular dysplasia associated with femoroacetabular impingement since 2006. The combined procedure has been providing effective correction of both acetabular dysplasia and associated femoral head-neck deformities without any increased complication rate. We have encountered an obturator artery injury in one case and two intraoperative comminuted fractures. Although serious complications such as motor nerve palsy, deep infection, necrosis of the femoral head or acetabulum, and delayed union or nonunion of the ilium were reported, such complications have never occurred in our 700 cases so far.

The results of fifty-eight congenitally dislocated hips in fifty-four children, who were between two months and eleven years old when treatment was begun, have been reviewed. Thirteen hips were treated by closed reduction, seventeen hips by open reduction, seventeen hips by Salter's innominate osteotomy, five hips by Klisic operation, and six hips by other operations. At an average 5.1 year follow-up (range, three to twelve years), a 91% satisfactory result was obtained when treatment was started under two years of age. With preoperative traction, in the cases when the femoral head was pulled down below to the zero station, the clinical result was satisfactory in 83%. We think that the treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip should be started before two years of age and that the femoral head should be pulled down below to the zero station to prevent avascular necrosis, and to obtain a satisfactory result.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the mothod and therapeutic efficacy of total hip anthroplasties (THA) for osteoarthritis secondary to Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of hip in adults.
METHODSFrom May 2006 to December 2013, THA was performed on 15 adult patients (17 hips) with Growe type IV acetabular dysplasia, including 13 females and 2 males, with a mean age of 30.9 years old (22 to 58 years old) and an average preoperative Harris score of (34.0 ± 6.5) points. Traction of the affected limb was not performed before surgery. After extensive release and lengthening of soft tissues, sub-trochanteric osteotomy of the femur was performed, hip joint center was rebuilt and the abduction function was restored.
RESULTSThe patients were followed up with a mean period of 33 months (ranged from 6 months to 5 years). The postoperative Harris score was 85.0 ± 7.3,higher than the preoperative score. The extended length of limb ranged from 1.6 to 5.4 cm, with a mean of (3.42 ± 0.65) cm. The shortening and malformation of the affected limb were corrected in the most patients,with the difference in length of the two legs less than 1.5 cm. After surgery, 1 patient experienced partial sciatic nerve injury, which was largely recovered after 3 months of conservative treatment. One patient experienced complete sciatic nerve injury, which was partially recovered after 6 months of conservative treatment; a foot-drop varus deformity was formed in the distal end of the affected limb, which was improved after tendon transposition and transplantation. Joint pain was relieved, and the joint function was restored significantly. Over the follow-up period, no severe complications such as dislocation, infection, prosthesis loosening, or subsiding occurred.
CONCLUSIONSatisfactory efficacy can be achieved for adult Growe type IV acetabular dysplasia associated with osteoarthritis by THA, with proper soft tissue release and lengthening, sub-trochanteric osteotomy of femur, joint functional restoration, appropriate choice of prosthesis, and careful protection of nerves and vessels.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of total hip arthroplasty using a proximal modular femoral stem in patients who had secondary coxarthrosis associated with a dysplastic hip. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-two patients (45 hips) with secondary coxarthrosis were evaluated after undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty using an S-ROM proximal modular femoral stem. The average follow-up was 80 months (range: 60 to 96 months). Clinical and radiological assessments were performed based on the Harris hip score and the radiological changes around the prosthesis. RESULTS: The average Harris hip score improved from 52.2 points to 88.5 points. All femoral stems showed stable fixation; there were 37 cases by bony ingrowth and 8 cases by stable fibrous ingrowth. Neither osteolysis nor progressive radiolucent lines around the femoral stem were found at the last follow-up. Forty-one hips (91.9%) revealed excellent or good clinical results at the most recent follow-up. CONCLUSION: For advanced secondary coxarthrosis, total hip arthroplasty with the use of the proximal modular femoral stem yielded good mid-term results with respect to the clinical and radiological criteria.

OBJECTIVETo assess the effect of total hip replacement on lumbago in patients with unilaterally developmental hip dysplasia.
METHODSFrom January 2001 to January 2006, 39 adult patients with unilateral developmental hip dysplasia co-exiting lumbago were included. Among them, there were 32 females and 7 males, age from 38 years to 73 years. According to Crowe classification system, there were 4 in type I, 20 in type II,8 in type III and 7 in type IV. They were performed total hip replacement. The Harris Hip Score and the Oswestry Disability Index were used to evaluate hip and spine symptoms in same patient before and 3, 24 months after operation.
RESULTSThirty-nine patients were evaluated, both hip and spinal pain and function were significant improved. The mean Harris score increased from 44 to 84 (P < 0.01). The mean Oswestry Scores dropped from 36 to 25 (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSpinal function and lumbago is improved after total hip replacement in patients with unilateral developmental hip dysplasia at 3 months, which is maintained and enhanced in 2 years.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the surgical techniques and clinical outcomes of total hip replacement for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip.
METHODS:
From May 2004 to March 2008, a total of 36 total hip replacements were performed in 32 patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip. The acetabulum cup was reconstructed in the corresponding anatomical position in all cases. Cemented components were used in 16 hips, and cementless components in the other 20 hips. The mean follow-up was 31.3 months. Clinical outcomes were determined with Harris hip score. Radiographs were taken after the surgery and in every follow-up examination for further reference.
RESULTS:
All patients postoperatively gained a limb lengthening with an average of (3.4+/-1.3) cm. Three patients had complications, 2 had nondisplaced fractures of the proximal part of the femur,and 1 sciatic nerve palsy which disappeared after 3 months. There was no infection, dislocation and symptomatic deep vein thrombosis. Compared with preoperation, the mean Harris hip scores on the 3rd day, the 14th day after the operation and at the last follow-up were all improved significantly (all P<0.05). There was no loosening, migration, heterotopic ossification radiographically, and no revision during the follow-up.
CONCLUSION
Total hip replacement is an effective treatment for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip. The key is to place the acetabulum cup in the corresponding anatomical position, and choose proper prosthesises during the surgery.

OBJECTIVETo retrospectively compare the therapeutic effects of simple Pemberton's ilium osteotomy and combined unter-trochanter derotation-varisation osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
METHODSClinical data of 141 DDH patients who received either simple Pemberton's ilium osteotomy (n=57; 12 male and 45 female; age range 3-8 years) or combined unter-trochanter derotation-varisation osteotomy (n=84; 15 male and 69 female; age range 4-9 years) from January 2004 to January 2009 were collected. Postoperative complications, Severin's radiological outcomes and therapeutic outcomes as evaluated by Mcay criteria were compared between the two groups 2 years after operation.
RESULTSThe patients in simple Pemberton group were followed-up for 30-52 months (mean 38 months) and the patients in the combination group were followed-up for 32-51 months (mean 37 months). There were 7 cases of dislocation, 4 cases of avescular necrosis of femoral head and 5 cases of joint stiffness in simple Pemberton group vs 0 case of dislocation, contraction of the limb and ANFH,2 cases of joint stiffness in the combination group. Two years after surgery, the result as evaluated by McKay criteria was excellent in 27 cases, good in 18 cases and fair in 12 cases in simple Pemberton group vs. 52, 25 and 7 cases in the combination group. The overall clinical outcome in the combination group was better than that in simple Pemberton group. Severin X-ray evaluation showed excellent in 27 cases, good in 15 cases and fair in 15 cases in simple Pemberton group vs. 53, 22 and 9 cases in the combination group,indicating that the overall result in the combination group was better than that in simple Pemberton group.
CONCLUSIONThe overall clinical outcome of the combination group is better than that of simple Pemberton group in the treatment of pediatric DDH, especially in reducing postoperative complications and functional recovery. The patients in the combination group reported a higher postoperative satisfaction as compared with those in simple Pemberton group.
