Purpose: To investigate the extent of bone ingrowth into the porous-coated acetabular cups as well as the factors that correlated with bone ingrowth in total hip arthroplasty. Materials and Methods: Thirty six Harris-Galante porous-coated acetabular cups that were retrieved through revision surgery were examined in this study. Acetabular cups retrieved due to infection or severely destroyed cups (ed note: severe what?) were excluded. The extent of bone ingrowth into the acetabular cups was grossly measured, and its correlation with the variables including age, gender, weight, height, the duration of fixation, size, number of screws, inclination and anteversion was statistically analyzed. Results: The mean proportion of bone ingrowth was 52.9 21.9%(2~90%) and less than 30% in three cups(8.3%). The pattern and the location of bone ingrowth were not consistent. There was no correlation between the extent of bone ingrowth and age, gender, weight, height, the duration of fixation, cup size, number of screws, size, inclination and anteversion. Conclusion: Harris-Galante porous-coated acetabular cups showed satisfactory bone ingrowth regardless of the variables associated with the demographic or surgical conditions. Surface treatments with a fiber-metal porouscoating appears to be suitable for cementless acetabular cups in terms of the long term results.

BACKGROUND: We investigated the risk factors for the recurrence of anterior shoulder instability after arthroscopic surgery with suture anchors and the clinical outcomes after reoperation. METHODS: A total of 281 patients (February 2001 to December 2012) were enrolled into our study, and postoperative subluxation and dislocation were considered as recurrence of the condition. We analyzed radiologic results and functional outcome including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Evaluation Form, the Korean Shoulder Society Score, and the Rowe scores. RESULTS: Of the 281 patients, instability recurred in 51 patients (18.1%). Sixteen out of 51 patients (31.4%) received a reoperation. In terms of the functional outcome, we found that the intact group, comprising patients without recurrence, had a significantly better functional outcome than those in the recurrent group. The size of glenoid defect at the time of initial surgery significantly differed between intact and recurrent group (p<0.05). We found that the number of dislocations, the time from the initial presentation of symptoms to surgery, and the number of anchor points significantly differed between initial operation and revision group (p<0.05). The functional outcome after revision surgery was comparable to intact group after initial operation. CONCLUSIONS: Eighteen percent of recurrence occurred after arthroscopic instability surgery, and 5.6% received reoperation surgery. Risk factors for recurrence was the initial size of glenoid defect. In cases of revision surgery, good clinical outcomes could be achieved using additional suture anchor.

An osteoma is a relatively common benign mass found in paranasal sinus lesions and is usually asymptomatic. On the other hand, pneumocephalus associated with a frontal or ethmoid sinus osteoma is rare and may cause serious complications. We present a case of pneumocephalus associated with a frontoethmoid sinus osteoma and porencephaly along with a literature review.
