Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of total hip arthroplasty (THA) with no femoral shortening oste?otomy for unilateral CroweⅣ developmental dysplasia of hip. Methods From October 2007 to January 2010, 32 patients with CroweⅣdevelopmental dysplasia of hip in one side underwent THA, including 20 females and 12 males, with an average age of 49.4 ± 9.7 years (range, 23-60 years). There were 15 cases as normal and 17 as mild developmental dysplasia of hip in the other side. The THA were performed with requisite soft tissue release and direct leverage using an elevator but with no femoral shorten?ing osteotomy. The patients' satisfaction, Harris hip score, bilateral leg?length discrepancy and pelvic obliquity was used to assess the clinical results. Results All of patient were followed up for 1-6 years, average 4.0 ± 1.5 years. No loosening or failure of component occurred by the end of follow?up. The Harris hip score was improved from preoperative 36.5±10.3 (20-63) to 89.8± 4.9 (80-97), and the excellent and good rate was 100% (excellent 16 cases, good 16 cases). The satisfactory rate was 93.8%(30/32). The leg?length discrepancy of the bilateral sides and the pelvic obliquity was corrected gradually and the gait returns to normal. Nine cases have valgus knee after THA and 4 cases of them felt uncomfortable after long?distance walk. Femoral nerve injury occurred in 2 cases. All of cases recovered after 1 and 3 months respectively. No infection and dislocation oc?curred. Conclusion THA with no femoral shortening osteotomy can achieve good clinical results in patients with unilateral CroweⅣdevelopmental dysplasia of hip. The discrepancy of leg?length will be diminished with the correction for pelvic obliquity.

Objective To assess the functional restoration in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who underwent hip resurfacing arthroplasty and to determine whether greater abduction angle of the acetabular component is relat?ed to larger diameter of femoral head component. Methods We reviewed 34 DDH cases (9 hips of 8 males and 25 hips of 24 fe?males, mean age 44.6±11.85 years at the time of surgery) on whom we performed hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) from October 2006 to September 2009. The total hip Arthroplasty (THA) group was consisted of 35 DDH cases (8 hips of 8 males and 27 hips of 25 females, mean age 43.7±10.4 years at the time of surgery). All operations were performed by the same doctor over the same peri?od. Assessment of the functional hip scores was conducted by Harris Hip Scores. A radiographic study was also performed to evalu?ate the implants stability and abduction angle of the acetabular components. All the data was analyzed with Kolmogorov?Smirnov method. Results The mean follow?up was 6.2 years in the HRA group. The Harris Hip Score improved from 54.9±13.2 to 97.3± 6.2 after the surgery. The mean abduction angle of the acetabular component was 51.6° ± 5.33°, hip flexion was 127° ± 6.9° and mean diameter of femoral head was 46.5±1.5 mm. The mean follow?up was 5.9 years in the THA group. The Harris Hip Score im?proved from 51.6±19.7 to 95.6±7.9 after the surgery. The mean abduction angle of the acetabular component was 43.9°±4.90°, hip flexion was 117°±4.2°. There was no failure of the prosthesis, peri?prosthetic fracture and infection in either group. There was sig?nificant difference in the abduction angle of the acetabular component (P<0.05) and flexion of the hip between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients in the HRA group had a better functional restoration and larger range of motion. Furthermore, a larger diameter of femoral head component could be achieved by placing the acetabular component in a greater abduction angle, which may contribute to a better long?term stability.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of combined anteversion angle of femoral neck-acetabulam in Crowe Ⅳ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with Wagner Cone total hip arthroplasty. Methods From June 2013 to February 2016,45 cases of CroweⅣDDH were treated with no femoral shortening osteotomy in THA ,including 25 females and 20 males. The outcomes of anteversion angle of femoral neck and acetabulam were measured in CT scan of hip jiont. The outcomes of abduction angle ,hip center were measured radiologically in X-ray of pelvis. Postoperative function was scored by Harris scoring system. Results The mean follow-up time of the 45 patients was(3.2 ± 0.8)years. Using loosening or revision as the end point ,the survival rate was 100%. The outcomes of preoperative anteversion angle of acetabulam,femoral neck,acetabulam-femoral neck was(27.70 ± 5.35)°,(47.76 ± 7.25)°,and(74.90 ± 8.43)° in CroweⅣgroup,and those of postoperative anteversion angle was(19.82 ± 2.41)° ,(23.35 ± 3.84)° and(44.90 ± 5.18)° ,respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.05). The average height of preoperative dislocation in femoral head was (5.8 ± 1.2)cm and the postoperative average displacement of femoral lesser trochanter was (3.6 ± 0.8)cm. The Harris hip score was improved from preoperative(46.66 ± 7.28)to(90.36 ± 4.72). For most patients,hip pain were significantly relieved ,range of motion of the hip was improved ,and the gait returned to normal. Femoral nerve injury occurred in 2 cases and the case recovered after 3 months respectively. Conclusions The deformity of hip and the stability and matching degree of the prosthesis was evaluated with the combined anteversion angle of femoral neck-acetabulam in CroweⅣDDH. The Wagner Cone can effectively maintain the stability of the hip joint in the non-amputated total hip replacement.

Femoral neck fracture (FNF) in the elderly patients is currently a major health challenge worldwide, with excessive consumption of medical resources, high incidence of complications as well as suboptimal outcome and prognosis. Hip joint arthroplasty (HJA) has been the mainstream treatment for FNF in the elderly, but the conventional surgical approaches and techniques are still confronted with a series of bottlenecks such as dislocation, limp and limb length discrepancy. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA) for HJA (DAA-HJA) has been a major new choice in the field of joint replacement, which achieves improved clinical effectiveness of HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF, due to the fact that DAA approach involves the neuromuscular interface and accords with the idea of soft tissue retention and enhanced recovery after surgery. However, there is still a lack of unified understanding of standard technique and procedure of DAA-HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF. Therefore, relevant experts from the Hip Joint Group of Chinese Orthopedics Association of Chinese Medical Association, Youth Arthrology Group of Orthopedic Committee of PLA, Orthopedic Committee of Chongqing Medical Association, Branch of Orthopedic Surgeons of Chongqing Medical Doctor Association and Sport Medicine Committee of Chongqing Medical Association were organized to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the technical standard of direct anterior hip arthroplasty for elderly femoral neck fracture ( version 2023)" based on evidence-based medicine. This consensus mainly proposed 13 recommendations covering indications, surgical plans, prosthesis selections, surgical techniques and processes, and postoperative management of DAA-HJA in elderly patients with FNF, aiming to promote standardized, systematic and patient-specific diagnosis and treatment to improve the functional prognosis of the patients.
