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.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for developmental dysplasia of the hip in adolescent.

METHODSTwelve hips in 9 adolescent patients who underwent a Bernese periacetabular osteotomy for symptomatic or asymptomatic developmental dysplasia of the hip were analyzed. The average age of the patients at the time of surgery was 12.9 years(11-14 years). The Harris hip score and overall patient satisfaction with surgery were used to assess hip function and clinical results. Plain radiographs were used to assess the correction of the deformity and to observe progression of degenerative changes.

RESULTSThe average duration of clinical follow-up was 88.5 (60-136) months. The mean Harris hip score increased from 89 ± 6 preoperatively to 97 ± 3 at the time of the most recent follow-up (t = -6.754, P = 0.000). All patients (12 hips) had an excellent clinical result. The lateral center-edge angle of Wiberg increased from 4° ± 13° preoperatively to 36° ± 7° at the time of the most recent follow-up (t = -11.677, P = 0.000). The acetabular roof obliquity decreased from 28° ± 10° preoperatively to 2° ± 8° at the time of the most recent follow-up (t = 9.038, P = 0.000). The acetabular-head index increased from 54% ± 11% preoperatively to 89% ± 13% at the time of the most recent follow-up (t = -11.137, P = 0.000). The hip center was translated medially. Improvement of cystic degeneration of the acetabulum were found in 4 hips. Remodeling of aspherical uncongruence were found in 5 cases. Crossing sign were found in 2 hips postoperatively without symptoms of impingement.

CONCLUSIONSPAO can provide comprehensive deformity correction and improve hip function in treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip in adolescence. Some of the patients have improvement of cystic degeneration and remodeling of the hip.

OBJECTIVE: To provide guidance for hip replacement by analyzing the variation of femoral head rotation center in different hip diseases. METHODS: A total of 5 459 patients were collected from March 2016 to June 2021, who took positive and proportional plain films of both hips for various reasons. The relative position between the rotation center of the femoral head and the apex of the greater trochanter was measured. The positive variation is more than 2 mm above the top of the great trochanter, and the negative variation is more than 2 mm below the top of the great trochanter. A total of 831 patients with variation of femoral head rotation center were collected and were divided into 4 groups according to different diseases, and the variation was counted respectively. There were 15 cases in the normal group involving 10 cases of positive variation and 5 cases of negative variation. There were 145 cases of avascular necrosis of femoral head involving 25 cases of positive variation and 120 cases of negative variation. There were 346 cases of congenital hip dysplasia involving 225 cases of positive variation(including 25 cases of typeⅠ, 70 cases of type Ⅱ, 115 cases of type Ⅲ and 15 cases of type Ⅳ), and 121 cases of negative variation(including 50 cases of crowe typeⅠ, 60 cases of typeⅡ, 10 cases of type Ⅲ and 1 case of type Ⅳ). There were 325 cases of hip osteoarthritis group involving 45 cases of positive variation and 280 cases of negative variation. RESULTS: There was significant difference in variation of femoral head rotation center among the four groups(P<0.05). There was significant difference in variation of femoral head rotation center among different types of congenital hip dysplasia(P<0.05). There were significant differences in cervical trunk angle and eccentricity among different variations of femoral head rotation center(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The variation of femoral head rotation center is related to cervical trunk angle and eccentricity. The variation of femoral head rotation center is an important factor in hip diseases. The variation of femoral head rotation center is different in different hip diseases. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head and osteoarthritis of the hip were mostly negative variations. With the aggravation of congenital hip dysplasia, the variation of femoral head rotation center gradually changed from negative variation to positive variation.The variation of femoral head rotation center should be paid attention to in the preoperative planning of hip arthroplasty. It is of great significance to select the appropriate prosthesis and place the prosthesis accurately.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effects of total hip arthroplasty(THA) with non-osteotomy and subtrochanteric osteotomy in the treatment of Crowe type IV hip dysplasia (DDH) in adults. METHODS: Data of 35 Crowe type IV DDH patients who underwent THA were analyzed retrospectively, the patients were divided into two groups:15 cases of non-osteotomy and 20 cases of subtrochanteric osteotomy. There was no significant difference in age, gender, body mass index between two groups (>0.05). The operative time, bleeding volume, hospitalization duration, Harris hip score and the limb length discrepancy (LLD) were evaluated. RESULTS: All of the patients were followed up for 12 to 48 months, no prosthesis loosening or infection occurred by the end of follow-up. In non-osteotomy group, 1 case had occurred by sciatic nerve injury and 1 case developed cutaneous branch injury of the femoral nerve, both of which were spontaneously recovered completely without treatment after 3 months. One case of dislocation occurred in subtrochanteric osteotomy group, after closed reduction, dislocation did not recur; three cases had proximal femoral crack fractures and received steel plate fixation; no reoperation was needed. There was significant difference in operation duration, bleeding volume, and hospitalization days between two groups(<0.05). The Harris score at last follow-up was significantly increased compared with preoperative score in two groups(<0.05), but there was no significant difference between two groups(>0.05). The postoperative discrepancy of bilateral lower limbs had significant difference(<0.05). CONCLUSIONS THA with no femoral shortening osteotomy can achieve good clinical results in patients with unilateral Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of hip. Comparing with subtrochanteric osteotomy, the procedure of no femoral shortening osteotomy is easier technically. For unilateral high dislocation DDH patients with limb lengthening <=4 cm and good tissue conditions, THA without femoral osteotomy may be considered.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the biomechanical characteristics, diagnosis, and hip arthroscopic treatment of borderline developmental dysplasia of hip (BDDH) with Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (Cam FAI). METHODS: The literature on BDDH with Cam FAI at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS: In patients with BDDH and Cam FAI, the femoral neck anteversion angle and femoral neck shaft angle increase, the pelvis tilts, and the acetabulum rotates, resulting in instability of the hip joint. In order to maintain the stability of the hip joint, the direction of biomechanical action of the hip joint has changed, which further affects the anatomical structures such as the proximal femur and acetabular morphology. BDDH with Cam FAI can be diagnosed clinically by combining lateral center edge angle, anterior center edge angle, and acetabular index. BDDH with Cam FAI can be effectively treated through arthroscopic polishing of the edges of the acetabular proliferative bone, excision of Cam malformations, and minimally invasive repair of the glenoid lip and cartilage of the hip joint. CONCLUSION Currently, there is no unified standard for the diagnosis and treatment of BDDH with Cam FAI. Minimally invasive treatment of the hip under arthroscopy can achieve good early- and medium-term effectiveness, and has certain advantages in repairing and maintaining the integrity of the glenoid lip and suturing/compression joint capsule. However, the long-term effectiveness needs to be further followed up to determine. The timing of surgery, intraoperative bone edge depth polishing, and joint capsule suturing/compression techniques also need to be further explored.

OBJECTIVETo provide an accurate method for osteotomy in the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip with steel osteotomy by three-dimensional reconstruction and Reverse Engineering technique.

METHODSBetween January 2011 and December 2012, 13 children with developmental dysplasia of the hip underwent steel osteotomy. 3D CT scan pelvic images were obtained and transferred via a DICOM network into a computer workstation to construct 3D models of the hip using Materialise Mimics 14.1 software in STL format. These models were imported into Imageware 12.0 software for steel osteotomy simulation until a stable hip was attained in the anatomical position for dislocation or subluxation of the hip in older children. The osteotomy navigational templates were designed according to the anatomical features after a stable hip was reconstructed. These navigational templates were manufactured using a rapid prototyping technique.

RESULTSThe reconstruction hips in these children show good matching property and acetabulum cover.

CONCLUSIONThe computer-aided design of osteotomy template provides personalized and accurate solutions in the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip with steel osteotomy in older children.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical results of modified Sutherland pelvic osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH).

METHODSSutherland pelvic osteotomy were performed in 10 patients (11 hips) with DDH. Among them, there were 3 male (3 hips) and 7 female (8 hips) patients, aged (32 ± 8) years. During operation, arthroscopes were performed additionally to remove the existing hyperplasia tissue in the fossae ovalis and trimming acetabulum and glenoid labrum, thus to insure the better match between the femoral head and the realigned acetabulum. The change of imaging indexes were acquired by comparing the preoperative X-ray with the postoperative X-ray. The change of hip function and life quality were acknowledged according to contrast and analysis Harris hip score and Short Form 12-items Health Survey (SF-12) before and after osteotomy.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up for a mean of (5.2 ± 2.3) years, the osteotomy were all union in 3 months. The acetabular head index was 71 ± 8 before operation, and 86 ± 4 after operation. The pre- and post-operative centre edge angle were (7 ± 9)° and (33 ± 9)°, sharp angle were (48 ± 4)° and (37 ± 5)°, acetabular index angle were (24 ± 8)° and (11 ± 5)° respectively. The average Harris score improved from 42 ± 13 preoperatively to 90 ± 5 postoperatively, with 100% excellent and good results. Every domains of SF-12 was improved in the different extents postoperatively, the improvement of physical component summary was more conspicuous than mental component summary. The imaging indexes, Harris and SF-12 were all improved with significant difference (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe modified Sutherland pelvic osteotomy is effective. It could increase the load bearing capacity of hip, and improve the quality of life.
