Challenging Primary THA: Introduction and General Principles
Understand the anatomy and specific technical issues related to the specific anatomic problems posed by
the problem you face. Know what you are up against.
Perform careful, detailed preop planning: Template and have a plan A, plan B, and plan C.
Consider which operative approach will give you all the options you need to solve the problem.
When appropriate, (previous infection, retained hardware) screen for infection.
Prepare for extra blood loss, consider cell saver.
Make sure you have all the special instruments (for example broken screw removal set) and special
implants you need.

WHEN FEMORAL FRACTURE FIXATION FAILS: SALVAGE OPTIONS
The Failed Femoral Neck Fracture:
Young patient:
Attempt to preserve patient’s own femoral head. Clinical results reasonably good even if there
are patches of avascular necrosis. Preferred methods of salvage: valgus-producing intertrochanteric
femoral osteotomy: puts the nonunion under compression. Other treatment option: Meyer’s
vascularized pedicle graft.
Older patient:
Most reliable treatment is prosthetic replacement. Decision to use hemiarthroplasty (such as
bipolar) or THA based on quality of articular cartilage, perceived risk of instability problem. In most
patients THA provides higher likelihood of excellent pain relief. Specific technical issues: (1) hardware
removal: usually remove after hip has first been dislocated (to reduce risk of femur fracture); (2) Hip
stability: consider anterolateral approach in older patients at risk. (3) Acetabular bone quality: poor
because it is not sclerotic from previous arthritis; caution when impacting a pressfit cup; low threshold
to augment fixation with screws; don’t overdo reaming; just expose the bleeding subchondral bone.
The Failed Intertrochanteric Hip Fracture:
Young patient:
Attempt to salvage hip joint with nonunion takedown, autogenous bone grafting and internal
fixation. Blade plate usually the favored internal fixation device.
Older patient:
Decision to preserve patient’s own hip with internal fixation versus salvage with hip arthroplasty
should be individualized based on patient circumstances, fracture pattern, bone quality. THA is an
effective salvage procedure for this problem in older patients. If prosthetic replacement is chosen
special considerations include:
1. THA vs. hemiarthroplasty: bipolar better stability; THA more reliable pain relief.
2. Removal of hardware: be prepared to remove broken screws in intramedullary canal.
3. Management of bone loss: bone loss to level of lesser trochanter common. Often requires a calcar
replacement implant. Proximal calcar build up size dictated by bone loss.
4. Length of stem: desirable to bypass screw holes from previous fixation if possible.
5. Stem fixation: cemented or uncemented fixation depending on surgeon preference, bone quality. If
uncemented, consider extensively coated (damaged proximal bone).

6. Greater trochanter: often a separate piece, be prepared to fix with wires or cable grip. Residual
trochanteric healing, hardware problems not rare after THA.
7. Bone deformity/heterotopic bone: manage in individual basis.

SALVAGE OF FAILED ACETABULAR FRACTURES WITH THA
I.
Introduction
A. THA after acetabular fracture presents unique technical challenges.
B. These challenges include bone deformity, bone deficiency, sclerotic or dysvascular bone,
non-united bony fragments, pelvic discontinuity, retained hardware, heterotopic
ossification, previous incisions, and concerns regarding the sciatic nerve.
C. Despite these challenges, with current treatment methods, a high degree of success can be
achieved with modern technology.
II.
Technical Issues
A. Preoperative evaluation for infection
1. In previously operated acetabular fractures, infection is always a concern. Screening
C-reactive protein and sedimentation rate may be performed. If a concern regarding
infection is present, the hip may be aspirated.
B. Incisions
1. In most cases, a previous incision may be utilized. If necessary, an incision may be
extended or a new limb can be created. The hip is less sensitive to multiple incisions
than the knee; nevertheless, attention still should be paid to maintaining optimal skin
bridges.

Hardware Removal
A. In cases with a high degree of concern about infection, a staged procedure may be
considered. However, in most cases, hardware removal can be done selectively at the
time of THA surgery. Hardware that does not compromise placement of the THA may be
left in place. Sometimes hardware can be cut off within the acetabulum to minimize
exposure needs.
B. Reconstructive Goals
1. The reconstructive goal is to place the hip center as close as possible to normal hip
center but also to gain good support of the socket on host bone. In most cases, both
goals can be met. When necessary, some compromise in hip center of rotation may be
considered to optimize implant stability on host bone.
C. Bone Deficiencies
1. Most bone deficiencies may be managed with methods similar to revision hip
surgery. However, in the acetabular fracture patient, usually the host femoral head is
available and this can be used as bone graft, either in particulate or bulk form.
2. Most cavitary deficiencies can be dealt with particulate bone graft. Some
superolateral bone deficiencies from posterior wall fractures may be considered for
bone grafting or augmentation techniques.
D. Cup Fixation
1. The principles of revision surgery are followed using uncemented acetabular
components fixed with augmentation screws.
E. Nonunited Fracture
1. Nonunited fractures are not uncommon in these circumstances. Small wall nonunions
may be managed as noted above for bone deficiency. If pelvic discontinuity is
present, it is usually best treated by following the rules established for treatment of
pelvic discontinuity with pelvic plating. Pelvic plating provides a reasonable
likelihood of bone healing in these circumstances when combined with bone grafting
techniques.
F. Heterotopic Ossification
1. Heterotopic ossification is common in previously operated acetabular fractures.
Removal of heterotopic bone at the time of surgery to gain hip motion is routine.
Postoperative measures to reduce the likelihood of bone formation (that is either
shielded radiation or use of a nonsteroid anti-inflammatory agent) may be strongly
considered.

G. Nerve Issues
1. The sciatic nerve is at risk during these procedures. In many cases, avoiding the nerve
and the region of the nerve is a reasonable approach. When a lot of work must be
done on the posterior column, the surgeon needs to know exactly where the nerve is
and in such cases the nerve may be exposed distally beneath the gluteus maximus
tendon and followed proximally with careful and judicious dissection.
H. Results
1. Results of total hip arthroplasty after acetabular fracture have varied in the past. More
recent series have shown a high rate of acetabular fixation associated with
uncemented hemispherical implants. Acetabular fracture patients are
disproportionately young and active with unilateral hip disease and, therefore, bearing
surfaces should be chosen accordingly.

Treatment Principles
A. Acetabulum
1. Acetabular reconstruction at anatomic position with uncemented implant when possible.
Use screws for extra fixation in most cases.
2. Anterolateral acetabular auto-grafting if needed—fix with screws
3. Accept mild medialization, elevations of hip center to get cup coverage on host bone
4. Reserve high hip center for Crowe II/III patient in whom anatomic hip center would
require socket to mostly be placed on graft
B. Femur
1. Cemented versus uncemented based on patient age, bone quality, anatomy. In most
younger patients uncemented is preferred.
2. Problems: anteversion, length
3. Modular uncemented stems simplify management of excessive anatomic anteversion in
some cases
4. Shortening/derotation subtrochanteric osteotomies in selected cases (see below)
C. Lengthening
1. No definite guidelines for how much is safe but beware if lengthening more than 2 cm
2. Role of intra-operative nerve monitoring
V.
Treatment Based on Classification
A. Crowe I
1. Acetabulum
a. Reconstruction at anatomic hip center using uncemented socket
b. Anterolateral structural graft only if needed (fixation with screws)
2. Femur
a. Uncemented versus cemented bases on anatomy/age/activity/surgeon philosophy
b. If uncemented:
-avoid excessive anteversion of stem (because femur often anteverted)
-in some diaphyseal fixation (extensively coated stem) or modular stems are useful
because of distorted proximal femoral geometry modular stem that allows
anteversion correction and use of uncemented proximally coated fixation is method
of choice for many of these patients
c. If cemented:
-may need CDH stem (valgus medial femur may preclude routine stem)

B. Crowe II
1. Acetabulum
a. Reconstruction at anatomic hip center or slightly above anatomic center attempting to
optimize coverage of uncemented socket with native bone
b. Graft if needed (usually do)
2. Femur
a. Same as Crowe I
C. Crowe III
1. Acetabulum
a. Presents the most difficult acetabular problem of DDH cases: severe lateral bone
deficiency
b. Options: -high hip center with small uncemented cup fixed with screws
-anatomic hip center reconstruction beneath large bone graft
2. Femur
a. Same as Crowe I
b. May require femoral shortening if anatomic hip center is chosen (See below for
Crowe IV)
D. Crowe IV
1. Acetabulum
a. Reconstruction at anatomic hip center with extra small uncemented socket
b. Graft usually not needed
c. Technical tip: prepare socket with reverse reaming (expands socket and impacts bone
making it denser)
2. Femur
a. Subtrochanteric osteotomy, femoral shortening
i. advantages: -elegant
-maintains anatomy of femur
-allows uncemented implant use
-avoids trochanteric problems of earlier methods
ii. technical tips: -osteotomy: transverse
-length: preop plan/intraop soft tissue tension
-keep resected segment vascular, split, use as struts
-implant: best to get proximal and distal fixation: fully coated or an
implant with diaphyseal fixation (such as flutes) distally

THA IN PATIENTS WITH PROXIMAL FEMORAL DEFORMITY
Introduction:
Goals of THA in patients with proximal femoral deformity are:
-Avoid letting deformity force suboptimal implant position
-Gain good implant position
-Gain acceptable hip biomechanics
Classification and treatment algorithm: Based on deformity level
-Very proximal (lesser trochanter level or above):
-Subtrochanteric
-Distal: distal to tip of standard THA stem
Management based on Deformity Level:
Distal deformities: Ignore
Proximal deformities: Rx options:
-Remove the deformity and substitute with the implant
-Choose an implant that allows satisfactory position and fixation despite the deformity
Subtrochanteric deformities: The toughest problems to solve (too proximal to ignore; too distal to
bypass). Rx options:
-Resurfacing Hip Arthroplasty: now out of favor due to metal-metal bearings in most cases
-Short stem THA
-Corrective osteotomy with THA: principles: maintain femur vascularity, gain fixation
proximal and distal to osteotomy with optimal implant choice.
Conclusions:
-Majority of proximal femoral deformities in hips requiring THA can be managed in one procedure.
-Main options: Use implant that compensates for deformity; excise the deformity; corrective osteotomy.

Some Top Testing Facts 1. Care should be taken to avoid placing the tibial component in internal rotation to avoid undesired increases in the Q angle. 2. The patellar component should be placed in a medial and superior position. 3. PCL failure should be considered in a well-­‐functioning PCL-­‐retaining TKA that starts to demonstrate instability, hyperextension, and recurrent effusion. 4. Correction of a gap-­‐balancing mismatch requires equalization of the flexion and extension gap. 5. Successful cementless fixation requires adjunctive peripheral fixation (eg, pegs and screws).

6. Excellent survival outcomes exist for cruciate-­‐retaining and cruciate-­‐substituting TKA designs. 7. The femoral component should be lateralized, parallel to the neutral rotational axis, and externally rotated 3° to 5° to the posterior condylar axis. 8. If a peroneal nerve palsy is suspected following TKA, the patient’s leg should be immediately flexed and all compressive dressings should be removed. First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 26

Breakout 3, Unicondylar Knee Replacement
David F. Dalury M.D.
Unicondylar knee replacements, the replacement of an isolated part of the knee joint, have a long
history in knee surgery. The basic concept is to replace what is worn and retain the more normal
native tissue. There are many theoretical advantages of this approach when compared to a TKR:
less bone resection, a quicker and easier recovery, better knee kinematics, an easier revision if
needed as well as a more cost effective way to manage isolated knee arthritis.
Traditionally, the typical Uni candidate was considered to be an elderly, sedentary, female with
good range of motion and an intact ACL. However, over time there have been many advances in
implant and instrument design, improvements in surgical technique and now, into our 4th decade
of Uni use, longer follow up that has given more confidence to cautiously expand the utilization
of Unis. Use restrictions such as age, weight, activity level and status of the remaining
compartments have all been challenged.
Long term results of Unis now rival those of TKRs in many publications and patients who have
both a Uni and a TKR routinely prefer their Unis. Typically, Unis were utilized in the medial
femoral-tibial articulation but there has been a successful expansion of Unis into the lateral
compartment as well as the patello-femoral joint. Not all designs have equal outcomes and joint
registries have been helpful in detailing that certain devices have superior outcomes compared
with others.
Several controversies still exist such as, how much pre-op deformity is acceptable; how much
disease in other compartments can be tolerated and can Unis be used if the ACL is deficient?
New advances in Uni surgery including concepts such as computer and haptic use, cementless
fixation and improvements in technique and implant design raise the potential for improved
outcomes. The availability of more long term data supporting Uni’s use along with an
increasingly internet savvy patient population raises the probability of an increase in popularity
of Unis.

Objectives:
1) Review concepts of patient evaluation and selection for joint preservation surgery
2) Present current surgical options in joint preservation hip surgery
Introduction:
Do we really need it? YES.
Should we try to avoid it? YES, if better alternative.
How about alternatives? YES. Early diagnosis and hip joint preservation surgery.
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective surgical treatment for endstage OA of the hip, yet these
procedures can have limitations in highly active, young patients. In these patients, high-level performance
and long-term survivorship of the implant is the desired result. Nevertheless, bearing surface wear,
osteolysis, aseptic loosening, thigh pain, dislocation, squeaking, mechanical failure, metallosis and activity
limitation are some of the potential drawbacks of prosthetic joint reconstruction. As a result, the concepts
of early diagnosis and hip joint preservation surgery have gained attention. The potential benefits of joint
preservation procedures include symptom relief, enhanced activity, and prolonged survivorship of the
natural hip joint. To obtain these goals the surgeon must be familiar with the etiologies of hip
dysfunction, patient selection criteria, surgical options and anticipated clinical outcomes. These
topics will be discussed.
1) Etiology of premature hip joint failure?
Recent analysis of structural abnormalities associated with endstage hip disease at young age (<50
years) demonstrated the following underlying etiologies:
Osteoarthritis- 56%
Osteonecrosis- 30%
other- 14%
The OA subgroup etiology make-up included:
45% DDH
45% FAI (including Perthes and SCFE)
10% other or not able to classify
Therefore, mechanical hip disease (DDH, FAI, Perthes, SCFE) should be targeted by early
diagnosis and preventive treatment initiatives.
2) Concepts of patient evaluation and selection for joint preservation surgery
Patient selection is a critical component of joint preservation hip surgery. Evaluation of the patient should
focus on the following questions.
a) What is the specific etiology of hip dysfunction (structural anatomy, associated soft tissue
disease, associated muscle dysfunction)?
b) Is the hip disorder surgically correctable?
c) Is the hip joint adequately healthy to respond to joint preservation surgery?
d) Are there significant patient-specific factors (age, BMI, activity level, etc) that will impact
treatment decision-making?
First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 79
Breakout 3, Non-arthroplasty Hip
e) What is the risk-benefit profile for the patient (compared to THA/SRA)?
f) What are the expected outcomes?
3) Current surgical options in joint preservation hip surgery
DDH
FAI
a. Acetabular reorientation (PAO)
b. Proximal femoral osteotomy (PFO)
c. Combined PAO/PFO
a. Anteversion PAO
b. surgical hip dislocation
c. hip scope/limited open
d. hip arthroscopy
Key Points:
1) Premature hip joint osteoarthritis is commonly (90%) associated with underlying structural hip
disease.
2) Careful patient selection is an important component of hip joint preservation surgery.
3) A variety of surgical techniques are required to provide comprehensive hip preservation surgical
care.
4) Clinical outcomes of joint preservation surgery are good to excellent in 80% of patients and should
improve with continued refinement of patient selection criteria and surgical technique.

Symposium III, Preparing for the Transition to Value Based Healthcare
Symposium III, Preparing for the Transition to Value Based Healthcare
Kevin J. Bozic, MD, MBA Professor and Inaugural Chair Department of Surgery and Perioperative Care
Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin
Mark I. Froimson, MD, MBA
President, Euclid Hospital Cleveland Clinic
Challenges Facing the US Healthcare System
1) Emphasis on healthcare, not health
2) Fragmented delivery, payment systems
3) Medical error/defensive medicine
4) “Medical arms race” 5) Moral hazard
Lack of Competition Based on Value
1) Patient choice and competition for patients are powerful forces to encourage continuous improvement
in value and restructuring of care
2) Today’s competition in health care is not aligned with value since the financial success of system
participants is not tied to patient success
Value-Based Healthcare
Primary Goal: Improve Value
1) Value can be defined as patient centered health outcomes per health dollar expended
2) Outcome = Quality (e.g. clinical outcome, safety) + Service (e.g. satisfaction, convenience,
communication)
Keys to Success
1) Empower stakeholders with better information
a) Tools for efficient, real time data collection
b) Transparency of cost, quality (actionable, easy to understand/use, risk adjusted)
2) Reorganize delivery, payment system around patient-centered value (not volume)
a) Align stakeholder incentives around value
b) Increased accountability for providers, patients
3) Leadership from the medical profession
Empowering Patients to Be Better Consumers
1) When rating factors that influenced their selection of provider for elective total joint arthroplasty,
patients chose Physician Manner and Physician Quality as the two most important factors [1]
2) Patients also on average strongly agreed with statements that their choice of surgeon would impact
their outcome and that there are big differences in the quality of care among different surgeons [1]
Quality Measures
1) Need to measure outcomes in order to track improvement
2) Define quality measures for your practice, focusing on outcomes that matter to patients
3) Develop infrastructure to measure outcomes (e.g. clinical data registries)
First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 81
Symposium III, Preparing for the Transition to Value Based Healthcare
4) Use outcomes data for continuous quality improvement, public reporting, value-based payment
a) Increase transparency of cost, outcomes
b) “If I am through learning, I am through.” – John Wooden
Reorganizing the delivery system around value
1) Existing model: care is organized by specialty and discrete service
2) Model organized around value:
a. Staffed by dedicated multidisciplinary team
b. Joint accountability for outcomes and costs
c. Shared information platform
d. Single administrative & scheduling structure
e. Services co-located to the extent possible
3) Train, engage surgeons in Population Health Management
a. Define appropriateness of diagnostic, therapeutic interventions
b. “Downstreaming” care
c. Patient Engagement
d. Patient Activation
i. A measurement of an individual’s propensity to engage in positive health behavior [2]
ii. Patients with higher preoperative activation had better patient-reported outcomes after
TJA [3]
e. Shared decision making
4) Develop patient-centric, disease-based Integrated Practice Units
Role of the Payment System in Improving Value
1) In order to implement value driven healthcare, must identify and eliminate or reduce non-value added
care.
a. Unnecessary care
b. Inappropriate variation in care
c. Avoidable complications/readmissions/reoperations
d. Excess cost due to variation in price
Principles for Successful Implementation of Value-Based Payment
1) Assess culture, operational readiness
a. Risk tolerance
b. Data systems, sharing
c. Trust, alignment
d. Leadership
2) Identify clinical, administrative champions
3) Define the episode for which you accept risk
4) Define performance metrics, gainsharing models
5) Understand care from the patient’s perspective
6) Measure the actual costs of care delivery (e.g. using time-drive activity-based costing)
7) Use data to identify opportunities for improvement
8) Redesign care to improve quality, reduce cost
9) Price/market episode of care program 10) Evaluate results, iterate
First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 82
Symposium III, Preparing for the Transition to Value Based Healthcare
Preparing for Payment System Transformation
1) More granular cost, outcomes measurement
2) Greater integration/alignment across providers
3) Experiment with new payment methodologies
What Do We Have To Lose?
1) Current fee-for-service (RVU, DRG) system:
a. Set up such that as you become a better clinician (fewer complications, etc), your
reimbursement decreases
b. NO consideration of outcomes or value
2) Value based approaches require an up-front investment but can lead to improved provider financial
performance over time

Surgical Exposures
Introduction
There are multiple approaches to the hip in primary total hip arthroplasty
(anterior, antero-lateral, transgluteal, transtrochanteric, posterolateral, multiple miniincision approaches), however in revision total hip arthroplasty there are only 3 that are
employed routinely (transgluteal, transtrochanteric, posterolateral). The advantages and
disadvantages of the approaches will be discussed in this lecture as will the extensile
approaches (femoral osteotomies, controlled perforation, scaphoid window,
retroperitoneal approach) performed in revision procedures.

1)
Extended Trochanteric Osteotomy
• can be performed with either a posterolateral1 or transgluteal2 approach
• indications
- R/O cement, broken implant, ingrown stem
- proximal femoral varus remodeling has occurred preventing straight shot
at femoral canal
- previous trochanteric malunion
- significant trochanteric osteolysis precluding trochanteric osteotomy

2)
Controlled Perforation3
• indications – cement removal
• technique
- 7 mm anterior femoral perforation is created with a high-speed burr
- additional perforations, depending on length of cement mantle, performed
5 cm apart
- revision femoral component must bypass most distal perforation by at
least 2 component diameters
3)
Scaphoid Window4
• indications – cement removal
• advantages – allows greater access to femoral canal
• disadvantages – devascularized fragment may be created
4)
Retroperitoneal Approach5
• indications - intrapelvic migration of components/cement
- minimize risk of injury to neurovascular structures

Acetabular Osteolysis:
When to Graft/Exchange Polyethylene and When to Operate
I.
Introduction
-
-
II.
Assessment of Osteolysis
-
III.
Modular acetabular components in THA have been the component of choice
for more than three decades in North America
While achieving solid bone ingrowth of these components has proved
reproducible with excellent long-term clinical track records, the polyethylene
has been the weak link in the system
Polyethylene wear and osteolysis are seen frequently with long-term followup
The current generation of highly cross-linked polyethylenes will hopefully
reduce the incidence of these complications, but millions of modular
components with non highly cross-linked polyethylenes were performed, and
the issues related to their failure modes, and indications for revision will be
important clinical issues for decades to come
While there are occasional exceptions, in general once osteolysis begins to
develop it will be progressive and can lead to massive bone loss and
acetabular component loosening
Strategies to minimize the complications of massive osteolysis include routine
radiographic review of THA patients (q1-2 years), more frequent reviews
once the presence of osteolysis is established, and earlier rather than later
surgical intervention once progression is seen
In general, plain radiographs tend to underestimate the amount of true bone
loss that is present
Routine imaging may include:
i) AP Pelvis and AP and lateral hip views
ii) Judet views
iii) CT scan
Fundamental Questions to Answer
I) When should I operate?
i) symptomatic patient (however <50% of patients with osteolysis will have
symptoms)
ii) asymptomatic patient with large lesion potentially compromising
component fixation
iii) asymptomatic patient with documented progression of osteolysis on serial
radiographs

II) Why has the component failed?
i) specific polyethylene issues
ii) cup design issues
iii) technical issues
iv) related to time in vivo
v) r/o infection (especially if see early osteolysis)
III) Is the acetabular component solid or loose?
i) often difficult to assess preoperatively
- if 50% of shell circumference has osteolysis on AP or lateral xray, have a
suspicion for possible fixation compromise
ii) may be an intraoperative decision – judiciously check acetabular
component fixation intraoperatively
IV) If the acetabular component is solid, can I retain it and either do a liner
exchange or cement in a new polyethylene?
A) Conditions necessary for a liner exchange:
i) Satisfactory component position
ii) Intact locking mechanism
iii) Undamaged acetabular component
iv) Liner of adequate thickness
v) Acceptable track records of components
vi) Ability to achieve intraoperative hip stability
vii) Availability of polyethylene of appropriate shelf life and sterilization
technique
B) Conditions necessary for cementing a liner
i) Satisfactory component position
ii) Adequate acetabular component internal diameter for cement mantle and
polyethylene thickness
iii) match age/demands of patient
IV.
Technical Considerations
A) Liner Exchange
- Remove liner
- Assess component stability
- Assess locking mechanism
- Graft osteolytic lesions either directly, or via a trapdoor technique in the ilium
(note – contraindicated if this compromises the lateral buttress of the pelvis)
- Always be prepared for a full revision with extraction devices and revision
acetabular components and inserts and bone graft
B) Cementing a liner
- The acetabular component needs to be textured by design or by technique
- The polyethylene component needs to be textured by design or by technique
- The cement mantle should be 2-4 mm thick
- Avoid over-sized and uncontained polyethylene
- Performed correctly, cemented liners are equal to modular liners for pushout
strength

C) Bone grafting
- No data to suggest what technique or material is superior
- Cancellous chips probably most frequently used
- BMPs have been tried by this author as they are osteoinductive, but there is a
significant cost associated with them
V.
Results and Complications
- at this point there are only short-term reports in the literature
- the largest series is from the Norwegian Arthroplasty Register which
demonstrated that isolated liner revisions (318 cases) had a higher re-revision rate
than those cases that underwent revision of their ingrown sockets (398 cases)
- most frequent complication has been postoperative dislocation
- instability complication may be less with direct lateral approach

THE HIP IS NOT STABLE
Introduction
Hip instability continues to be a significant complication following total hip
arthroplasty that is devastating for the patient and frustrating for the arthroplasty surgeon.
Current quoted incidence in the literature remains at approximately 1%. While
dislocations cannot be eliminated, an algorithmic approach to assessing and managing
intraoperative instability will assist the surgeon in addressing the issues intraoperatively
and minimize the probability of postoperative instability.
Preoperative Assessment
Minimizing the risk of intraoperative and postoperative instability actually begins with
the preoperative assessment and identifying the patient at risk and proactively discussing
this with the patient and creating a plan to minimize this event.
Obviously not all patient factors are modifiable, but some are. Patients at an increased
risk include:
1) Morbidly obese
2) Elderly
3) Non compliant (alcohol, substance abuse)
4) Neuromuscular disease
5) DDH

Intraoperative Assessment
With trials in place the surgeon begins the assessment with first confirming the leg
lengths and offset, assesses component orientation and then takes the hip through a range
of motion assessing for the presence of impingement.;
A) Leg length and offset
It is most helpful to have a reproducible methodology to determine preoperative and
intraop leg length and offset. A fixed device in the pelvis, with another marker of some
description on the femur, is a reliable technique. This is very valuable information in
maximizing the ability to achieve a stable total hip, without the added issue of
lengthening the limb
B) Assess component orientation
Similarly the arthroplasty surgeon should develop an intraoperative technique to
assessing the orientation of both the acetabular and femoral components. There is a great
range of variability in acetabular component placement and malposition increases the
probability of postop dislocation. While correct acetabular component orientation is
critical, minor adjustments can also be made via the use of lipped or face-changing liners.
The role of these liner options is greater in revision, rather than primary, total hip
arthroplasty.
C) Impingement
Impingement can be bone-bone, component-component or bone-component. Removal of
osteophytes and correct component orientation are the keys to minimizing impingement.
Impingement must be carefully assessed for and corrected with trials, or components in
place.

Evaluation of the Symptomatic &
Asymptomatic Metal on Metal THA
The Metal on Metal Hip
II.
II
Introduction
-
Metal on metal bearings, in both a total hip and resurfacing application, saw an
increase in global utilization over the past several years
-
This peaked in 2008 in the US, with approximately 35% of bearings being hard on
hard (metal on metal, or ceramic on ceramic)
-
Beginning in 2008, reports in the orthopaedic literature began to surface re local soft
tissue reactions and hypersensitivity to metal on metal bearings
-
A major implant manufacturer recalled a resurfacing device in 2010 after national
joint registries demonstrated higher than expected revision rates
-
Patients with painful metal on metal bearings presenting to the orthopaedic surgeon
are a difficult diagnostic challenge
-
The surgeon must go back to basic principles, perform a complete history and
physical exam, obtain serial radiographs and basic bloodwork (ESR,CRP) to rule out
common causes of pain and determine if the pain is related to the bearing, or not
The Asymptomatic MoM Arthroplasty
-
Patients will present for either routine followup, or because of concerns re their
bearing
-
It is important to emphasize that at this point the vast majority of patients with a
MoM bearing are indeed asymptomatic and their bearings are performing well
-
The surgeon must take into account:
a) which specific implant are they dealing with and what is its track record
b) what is the cup position
c) when do perform metal ion testing
d) when to perform further soft tissue imaging (MARS MRI, Ultrasound)
e) when to discuss possible surgery
-
A simple algorithm for both painless and painful MoM Arthroplasties has been
developed and is presented below

Painful MoM THA causes not related to the bearing couple
A) Extrinsic to the hip
-spine (radiculopathy, stenosis)
-vascular
-metabolic
-malignancy
B) Intrinsic to the hip
i) Extracapsular
-iliopsoas tendonitis
-trochanteric bursitis
ii) Intracapsular
-sepsis
-loosening
-thigh pain
-prosthetic failure
IV.
Painful MoM THA causes related to the bearing couple
There are now described a number of possible clinical scenarios and causes of pain that relate to
the metal on metal bearing couple itself:
A) Local hypersensitivity reaction without a significant soft tissue reaction
B) Local hypersensitivity reaction with a significant soft tissue reaction
0
C) Impingement and soft tissue pain 2 to large head effect
V.
Factors related to a hypersensitivity reaction
Some patients, and prosthesis, seem to be at a higher risk of developing issues following a metal
on metal bearing, although our understanding of the interplay of these factors is still in evolution:
A) Patient
- female gender
- smaller component sizes
B) Implant
-some implants have higher wear rates and perhaps are more prone to corrosion
-large heads and monoblock shells
C) Technique
0
-high cup inclination angles > 50

VI.
Special tests
There is ongoing confusion related to the relative value of the various special tests that patients
with a painful MoM undergo.
A) Metal Ions
- obtaining serum, or whole blood, cobalt and chromium levels is recommended as a baseline test.
However there is no established cutoff level to determine with certainty if a patient is having a
hypersensitivity reaction. A 7 parts per billion cutoff has been suggested. This gives high
specificity, but poor sensitivity. Metal ions therefore can be used as a clue, and one more test in
the workup, but cannot be relied upon in isolation to make a diagnosis.
B) MARS (Metal Artifact Reduction Sequence) MRI
- a useful tool for demonstrating soft tissue involvement, but there are many painless, well
functioning MoM implants that have soft tissue reactions, that don’t require a revision. In the
painful MoM hip an MRI, or ultrasound, is recommended to look for soft tissue destruction or a
fluid-filled periprosthetic lesion (pseudotumour). Significant soft tissue involvement is
concerning and is commonly an indication for revision in the painful MoM hip
C) CT imaging
- can be utilized to help determine cup position and combined anteversion, however plain
radiographs can give a rough estimate of this as well, so routine CT scan evaluations are not
currently recommended
VII.
Treatment
Management of the painful MoM hip is directly related to the etiology of the pain. Unique to
MoM bearing is the issue of pain secondary to a local hypersensitivity reaction. All above test
should be utilized to help determine the best course of action in any individual patient.
The painful MoM bearing, that is demonstrating significant soft tissue involvement is a
concerning scenario. Earlier revision, to prevent massive abductor damage, would seem prudent
for these patients. The painful MoM bearing with no significant soft tissue changes can probably
be followed and reviewed at regular intervals. If the pain persists and is felt to be secondary to a
hypersensitivity reaction, then revision is really the only option, although the patient must be
cautioned regarding the unpredictable nature of the pain relief.

An approach to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infection is therefore critical to
the arthroplasty reconstructive surgeon.
A) Prevention
I - Patient Factors
The general pre-operative health of the patient is an important factor to consider. Patients
with multiple comorbidities (ASA class III or more) are at higher risk for infection.
While clearly some factors can’t be modified (ie, previous surgery), many others can be
optimized.
i) Diabetes
- Patients with poor sugar control and higher HbA1C concentrations are at higher risk for
infection. Glucose control should be optimized prior to surgery. Post-operatively tighter
glucose control has also been shown to decrease the rate of infection and other
complications, although the data is primarily from post-cardiac surgery.
ii) Obesity
-Controversy exists re the relative risk of obesity and deep infection post TKA, however
clearly there is a higher risk of prolonged drainage in these hips, which increases the risk
of surgical site infection. For the morbidly obese, weight loss counseling and
gastroplasty consultation is recommended.
iii) Rheumatoid Arthritis
-Often patients coming for joint arthroplasty are on a cocktail of drugs:
a) NSAIDs - weak anti-platelet effect and should be stopped if possible pre-operatively,
especially aspirin with its non-reversible effect on platelets (10 days)
b) Steroids - powerful effect on the inflammatory cascade, and depression of the immune
system. If possible, steroid use should be tapered pre-operatively to minimum levels, and
if the patient remains on supra-physiologic doses of over 5 mg daily, intravenous steroids
should be administered peri-operatively to avoid adrenal insufficiency crisis. Recent
literature indicates that the relatively high doses of intravenous hydrocortisone (100 mg
every 8 hours) are not necessary, and for total joints 25 mg every 12 hours for three doses
is adequate, with no need for prolonged therapy beyond this.
c) Methotrexate – variable historical recommendations, however 2 recent publications
have shown no increased complications maintaining, rather than stopping it
d) Leflunomide - one of the new DMARDs has shown a significant increase in infection
rate post-operatively when not stopped
e) TNF blockers (infliximab, adalimumab, etanercept) - have not been definitively
demonstrated to be harmful in the peri-operative context from multiple studies
iv) Immunocompromised
-HIV, hemophilia, previous organ transplantation, skin disorders (psoriasis)
v) Previous hip surgery
First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 98
Breakout 4, Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA): Simple to Complex
16
II - Intraoperative Factors
i) Antibiotic Prophylaxis
-administered <60 minutes prior to surgical incision (critical point)
-Cefazolin routinely, or Vancomycin/Clindamycin in allergic patient
-no evidence for extended use >24 hrs in routine primary THA
ii) OR suite
-high airflow turnover room (doesn’t have to be laminar flow necessarily)
-vertical laminar flow improves air quality
-ultra-violet light also effective
-no convincing evidence for body exhaust suits
iii) Sterile technique
-breaks in sterile technique are more common than considered
-change to new gloves prior to handling implants
iv) Length of Operating Time
- increased OR time is associated with increased infection rates and this has been
confirmed in several papers and registry data
v) Antibiotic cement
- national joint registries clearly demonstrate reduced infection rates with its routine use
- approved for routine use in many countries (not the US – only for 2nd stage revision
procedures)
III – Postoperative Factors
i) Drain use
- no evidence that a drain either increases or decreases the infection rates
ii) VTE prophylaxis
- no evidence that the routine postop use of low mw heparin increases the infection rates
- evidence that preop use does increase infection rates
iii) Prolonged wound drainage
- should have a low threshold for returning to the OR in a patient who has had wound
drainage for longer than 7-10 days, particularly in a patient with further risk factors such
as obesity, diabetes, previous surgical scars in the area, poor vascularity, ongoing need
for anti-coagulation, or evidence of wound edge necrosis
iv) Antibiotic prophylaxis for dental work
- beyond 2 years postop - joint statement from the AAOS and American Dental
Association advocated its’ use only in at risk patients
- if patients tolerate the antibiotics, we discuss option of prophylaxis indefinitely
B) Diagnosis
First Annual AAHKS Spring Meeting | 99
Breakout 4, Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA): Simple to Complex
17
i) History
- key – have a high index of suspicion in all failed and painful THAs
- look for – wound healing problems with index procedure
- “always painful/ never right”
- recent systemic illness (ask about recent/current Ab use,dental procedures,etc)
- rest pain and nocturnal pain
ii) Physical exam
- often normal
- local skin changes
iii) Imaging
a) plain radiographs – most commonly normal, although may see periosteal
b) nuclear imaging – role is ill-defined, useful to evaluate the painful hip with all tests
being negative to look for incomplete boney ingrowth
iv) Blood tests
- ESR and CRP should be obtained on every patient assessed for a painful THA
- if both are normal, probability of infection is very low
- if one or both are elevated, further investigate with an aspiration
v) Aspiration
- confirm patient has been off all antibiotics for at least 2 weeks
- performed in all cases with abnormal bloodwork, and send for:
a) Cell count
- indicative of infection if > 3000 WBC/mm (if both ESR and CRP elevated)
- indicative of infection if > 9000 WBC/mm (if only one of ESR or CRP elevated)
b) Cell count differential
- be suspicious of infection if > 80% WBC count
- very indicative of infection if > 90% WBC count
c) Culture
- send for aerobic, anaerobic and fungal and TB infections in some cases (previous
cultures negative when clinical suspicion is high)
vi) Intraoperative Evaluation
a) Frozen section
- results are pathologist specific
-average of 5-10 PMNs per high powered field is normally the cut-off, although again
this varies between pathologists
- we have found the best approach is to speak directly with our pathologist and have them
determine – is this consistent with chronic or acute inflammation
b) Gram stain
- can see both false positives and false negatives
- can be used as a guide to determine which postoperative antibiotic to use, but can’t be
used as the only method to diagnose an infection
- in many institutions no longer available as a stat test
- always take at least 3, if not more, independent culture swabs to help guide postop Rx

There is not one widely accepted gold standard test for diagnosing the infected THA. It is
a clinical judgment based on many factors, particularly in the face of negative cultures.
C) Treatment
Historically infected THAs have been classified into 4 broad categories based on the
timing of presentation: an unexpected positive intraoperative culture, acute infection,
chronic infection and acute hematogenous infection. It must be emphasized that it is often
not entirely clear which category a given patient falls into, so treatment recommendations
based on the categories should be viewed as general guidelines only.
i) Positive intraoperative culture
- in this scenario one or more of the intraoperative cultures taken at the time of a revision
THA come back as positive
- there is no strong evidence based medicine to guide the surgeon in this case
- our routine is to involve Infectious Disease in the process and our strong leaning is to
treat all of these cases with 6 weeks of IV antibiotics (although some authors would argue
that if only one positive culture and no others signs of infection, those patients do not
require prolonged antibiotic coverage)
- we would not take the patient back to the operating room and perform a first stage
revision
ii) Acute postoperative infection
- historically this has been defined as an infection occurring within the first 6 weeks
following THA
- however more recently authors are beginning to discuss this in terms of within the 3-4
weeks of the index procedure
- while it seems intuitive that the longer the infection has been present the lower the
success rate will be with an I&D and polyethylene exchange, there is actually very little
published to guide the surgeon as to when to make the transition and perform component
removal and antibiotic spacer insertion
- in general, we use the cut-off of 4 weeks, but this has to be individualized to patient and
in particular the organism cultured
- staph infections are much harder to eradicate and will have a higher failure rate for
I&D’s, strept infections on the other hand are more amenable to that intervention
- Rx – in summary, patients presenting with acute infections should undergo:
1) an operative intervention with a formal I&D with removal of the polyethylene insert so
that that interface can be accessed
2) multiple intraoperative cultures should be obtained
3) a postop ID consult
4) 6 weeks of IV Abs
5) some authors are actually recommending chronic oral suppression for these cases,
however again there is no evidence based medicine to give clear guidelines
iii) Chronic postoperative infection
- divergent literature re one-stage versus two-stage procedure
- majority of North American centres perform two-stage
- I&D’s are not successful and simply delay ultimate treatment
- a two-stage revision has an approx 90% success rate and includes:

19
i) 1st stage: a) thorough meticulous debridement of involved soft tissue
b) removal of all components and cement if present
c) pulsatile lavage irrigation with 9L (at minimum)
d) use of an antibiotic spacer
Spacers
- there are two types of antibiotic spacers, static and articulating. Spacers allow for the
local delivery of antibiotics. Current recommendations are for the use of 3 doses of
Vancomycin and 3 doses of Tobramycin per bag of cement (if the patient has any
underlying urine clearance or kidney issues we reduce the dosage). This amount of
antibiotic will create a very thick doughy cement that is hard to mix so we routinely add
another ½ vial of the monomer. It must be emphasized that this amount of Ab in the
cement will reduce the mechanical properties of the cement so is only recommended for
spacers knowing that they will be converted to THA’s at the time of the second stage
revision
- there is no literature to suggest that the success rate for static vs articulating spacers is
any different, however articulating spacers do offer some advantages: prevent the limb
shortening allowing an easier exposure at the 2nd stage, perhaps improved functionality.
One disadvantage is the risk of dislocation. In cases of severe bone loss they are difficult
to use and there is the possibility for increased bone loss with movement between the
articulating spacer and host bone.
ii) Interval between stages
- patient receives 6 weeks of IV antibiotics, guided by intra-operative cultures (in
consultation with Infectious disease)
- some authors recommend very frequent ESR and CRP checks. Our routine is to do this
bloodwork at 6 weeks when they are seen in clinic and their antibiotics are stopped and
then again 3 weeks later when they are seen in the preadmission clinic and have a repeat
aspiration that same day.
- approx 10% of patient will fail the first attempt at infection eradication and will need to
have a repeat 1st stage and spacer insertion
iii) 2nd stage:
a) repeat the debridement and obtain multiple samples for cultures and frozen
section. Controversial re what constitutes ongoing infection – at our site our
pathologists will tell us if samples are consistent with acute or chronic
inflammation
b) if evidence of ongoing infection – proceed to spacer insertion
c) if no evidence of ongoing infection – proceed to definitive implants
d) keep patient on IV Abs until cultures back
iv) Acute hematogenous infection
- by history, this is a well functioning THA that acutely changes
- this source of infection is often never determined
- look for recent dental procedures, any infections (ie, UTIs), skin ulcers in diabetics, etc
- patient presents with very short direction of ++pain, perhaps decreased ROM, difficulty
ambulating, occasionally a fever
- Rx is identical to that for acute postoperative infection:
1) an operative intervention with a formal I&D with removal of the polyethylene insert so
that that interface can be accessed
2) multiple intraoperative cultures should be obtained
3) a postop ID consult
4) 6 weeks of IV Abs

Healthcare in general, and joint replacement in particular, has come under fire for being of
uneven quality and cost, without a direct correlation between the two. As a result, payers and
regulators are attempting to correct this perceived deficiency by incentivizing providers, that is
physicians and health systems, to focus on the value of the care provided. While there is general
agreement that both quality improvement and cost reduction are tandem paths to value creation,
there is less agreement on the best models for achieving one or both of these. Waste and
unnecessary interventions are commonly cited reasons for excess cost and lack of quality.
Duplication of services occurs when there is lack of communication and coordination and when
practitioners attempt to ply their craft in traditional silos. The move to alternative payment
models has begun to shed light on the importance of care coordination and transitions of care, in
eliminating redundancy and ensuring compliance with prescribed treatments. Such seamless care
requires that providers know one another, that there are common and accepted pathways across
the continuum, that communication is fostered, that follow up is assured and that complications
and deviations from the expected course are managed by those with the most knowledge of the
patient. Although such care can occur in a virtual network of providers who are well known to
each other, there is increasing evidence that the most reliable way to ensure such quality and
efficiency is through the creation of integrated delivery systems. Such systems can take the form
of a unified entity with a single business model, but can also exist in the form of a clinically
integrated network that is linked by shared agreements between independent entities. It is the
degree of integration that matters more than the financial ties of the parties delivering the care.
One additional conclusion is clear, in order for the healthcare system to be redesigned and
optimized for better care deliver and better health, physicians will need to play a more central
role in the leadership of such efforts. Whether in private practice, group practice, in academic
medicine or as employees, physicians, and surgeons in particular, will need to understand the
legislative and regulatory landscape, and, importantly, how they can either impact it or adapt to
it. Change is rapid on all fronts, but what is immutable is the value that patients see in the doctor

patient relationship. It is imperative that surgeons get educated on the non clinical drivers of the
system, both financial and regulatory. Only by empowering themselves with knowledge will
they be able to influence teams, build systems, eliminate waste and lay claim to the value that
these activities create.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Infection in the Early Post-Operative Period
Diagnosis can be extremely difficult in the early post-operative period secondary to
normal post-operative pain, edema and peri-incisional erythema that make the appearance
of the wound and normal cues to diagnosis unreliable.
While the ESR, CRP, synovial fluid WBC count and differential have been found to be
useful in the diagnosis of chronic infection, one would expect that they would be elevated
in the early post-operative period and potentially unreliable.
We performed a retrospective review of 6,033 consecutive primary total hip
arthroplasties performed by (3) surgeons to determine the utility of the ESR, CRP and
synovial fluid WBC count with differential in the early post-operative period; 73 patients
(1.2%) underwent early re-operation within the first 6 weeks.

We determined the following optimal cut-off values

- Synovial Fluid WBC count : 12,800 WBC/uL
- Differential: 89%
These numbers are similar to our experience with the diagnosis of infection in the early
postoperative period following TKA (see Bedair et. Al CORR 2011)
How do we use this in oury own practices?
- If there is ANY question regarding the wound appearance, we get a CRP.

If the CRP is near or > 100mg/L, we aspirate the hip (or knee)
If the synovial fluid WBC is > 10,000 and differential is > 90%, the hip is very
likely infected.
If you are still unsure, you can wait for the culture results
Treatment of Infection in the Early Post-Operative Period
Although the most common treatment for an acute post-operative infection is irrigation
and debridement (I+D) with exchange of the modular bearing surface, the validity of this
approach has recently been questioned given a high rate of failure.
- Particularly bad results with any type of a staphyloccal infection
- Or with a resistant organism
Alternative options include a 1-stage exchange or a 2-stage exchange. We performed a
decision analysis to compare quality of life outcomes among irrigation and debridement,
one and two-stage exchange (Bedair et. al, CORR 2011).
- Based on this analysis, if the rate of eradication of infection with a 1-stage
exchange exceeds 69%, it is the preferred treatment option;
- I+D with a bearing surface change is only preferred if the success rate is > 60%.
- Advantages of a one-stage exchange include
o Relative ease of cementless component removal in the early post-operative
period
o Greater exposure and access for debridement of the bony surfaces
o Removal of colonized implants, which may harbor bacterial biofilm.
Early experience with 1-Stage Exchange in the early postoperative period following THA
- Multi-center study (Rush, Jefferson, University College Hospital in London)
- 28 Hips; all had cementless components at index arthroplasty and all exchanged to
cementless implants
- 71% implant retention at mean 41 months
- Hansen et. al, CORR 2013
Based on the published results of an isolated I+D, the decision analysis and the early
clinical results of a 1-stage exchange, it seems reasonable to consider a 1-stage exchange
for the treatment of the acute infected THA.

Management of the Unstable THA
Recurrent dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a complex, multifactorial
problem that has been shown to be the most common indication for revision THA. At
our center, we have tried to approach the unstable hip by identifying the primary cause of
instability and correcting that at the time of revision surgery.

Constrained liner or dual mobility bearing; optimize
component position
Remove sources of impingement; upsize femoral
component and optimize component position
Exchange of acetabular liner; upsize femoral head and
optimize component position
Constrained liner or dual mobility bearing
The most common etiologies of instability in our experience include cup malposition
(Type 1) and abductor deficiency (Type 3)
We reviewed 75 hips revised for instability and at a mean 35.3 months 11 re-dislocations
occurred (14.6%). Acetabular revisions were protective against re-dislocation (p<0.015).
The number of previous operations (p=0.0379) and previously failed constrained liners
(p<0.02) were risk factors for failure. The highest risk of failure was in patients with
abductor insufficiency with revisions for other etiologies having a success rate of 90%.
Although instability can be multifactorial, by identifying the primary cause of instability,
a rational approach to treatment can be formulated. In general the poorest results were
seen in patients with abductor deficiency. Given the high rate of failure of constrained
liners (9 of the 11 failures were constrained), we currently are exploring alternatives such
as dual mobility articulations.

Leg Length Inequality
Total hip arthroplasty provides an effective operative solution in managing patients with
joint failure. Leg length inequality is a cause of patient morbidity with serious medicolegal implications. Management relies on an accurate understanding of the cause of LLI
and is usually conservative. Revision surgery for managing LLI is occasionally required
and often very successful.

Periprosthetic Fractures: Early
With the popularity of cementless stems in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) we have
seen a concomitant rise in the prevalence of intra-operative and early postoperative
fractures of the femur. While initial press-fit fixation is a requirement for
osseointegration to occur, there is a fine balance between optimizing initial stability and
overloading the strength of the proximal femur. Hence, the risk of intra-operative
fractures is intimately related to the design of the femoral component utilized
(metaphyseal engaging, wedge shaped designs having the highest risk) and the strength
of the bone that it is inserted into (elderly females being at highest risk).
If a fracture is identified, typically during or immediately after implant insertion, the stem
should be removed and the fracture examined to determine its extent; most are nondisplaced after removal of the implant. At this time, the surgeon can either place a
cerclage wire or cable and re-insert the stem or switch to a femoral component that gains
fixation primarily in the diaphysis. Recognition intra-operatively is preferable as

unrecognized fractures can lead to early femoral component subsidence and/or displaced
fractures that in our experience are challenging to manage.
These fractures typically are associated with a loose femoral component and require
revision to a stem that gains primary fixation distally. We have found a high risk of
complications and problems when treating these fractures in the early postoperative
period with a high risk of infection, heterotopic ossification and the requirement for
subsequent surgery.
Periprosthetic Fractures: Late
The Vancouver Classification is based on the location of the fracture, the fixation of the
implant and the quality of the surrounding host bone. The most common pitfall in
treatment is mistaking a B2 fracture (stem loose) for a B1 (stem stable); treatment of a
loose implant with ORIF alone will necessarily fail.
