THA TO SALVAGE FAILED ACETABULAR FRACTURES Daniel J. Berry, MD Mayo Clinic Rochester, MN
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXTechnical Challenges • Acetabular bone loss • Residual pelvic deformity • Nonunited fractures • Retained hardware • Heterotopic ossification • Socket fixation
THA FOR ACETABULAR FX ACETABULAR COMPONENT CHOICE
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX Previous ORIF Results: Long Term: • Higher failure rate than THA for OA • Pts young/male/unilateral disease • Uncemented cups better so far than cemented (similar scenario to revision THA) Weber et al. JBJS 80A(9):1295-1305, 1998
SURVIVAL FREE REVISION FOR ASEPTIC ACET LOOSE/RADIOGRAPHIC LOOSENINGCemented vs Uncemented
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXAcetabular Bone Loss Socket Fixation: • Apply principles of revision THA (similar sclerotic, deficient bone) • Consensus in North America: Uncemented hemispherical cup
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXLong-Term Socket Fixation: Uncemented Cups Uncemented Cups: 5 Yr, Data, Rush: • 1/30 (4%) revised for loosening JBJS(A), 2001
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXLong-Term Socket Fixation: Uncemented Cups Uncemented Cups: Mayo Clinic Data: • 34 hips • Minimum F/U 10 yrs (10-16) • Aseptic Loosening 2/34 (6%) Halasy, Berry, CORR 2002
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX MANAGEMENT OF BONE LOSS
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXAcetabular Bone Loss Cavitary Bone Loss: Particulate Graft
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXAcetabular Bone Loss Segmental Loss: The Posterior/Superior Wall • Use autogenous femoral head graft if needed
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXAcetabular Bone Loss Results: • Reliable bone graft healing and incorporation
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX PELVIC DEFORMITY
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXPelvic Deformity • Landmarks distorted • - care with cup position • Bony prominence • - beware of bone impingement causing instability
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX NONUNITED FRACTURES
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXNonunited Fractures • Typically nonunited transverse acetabular fx (pelvic discontinuity) • Stabilize with post column plate
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXNonunited Fractures Results: • High rate of fracture healing (100% in personal experience)
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXNonunited Fractures Plate Pelvic Discontinuity
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX RETAINED HARDWARE
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXRetained Hardware • Leave in place if not problematic • Selective removal when needed • Beware of the sciatic nerve
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXRetained Hardware Selective Hardware Removal
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXRetained Hardware Selective Hardware Removal
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXRetained Hardware Sciatic Nerve: • Avoid if possible • If working posteriorly: Identify (beneath g. max. tendon), handle carefully • Do case with knee flexed
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX HETEROTOPIC BONE
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXHeterotopic Bone Heterotopic Ossification: • Excise HO if symptomatic • If HO formed after last procedure use prophylaxis (NSAID or radiation) after THA
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXHeterotopic Bone HO: Excise, Postop Prophylaxis
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX MINIMIZING COMPLICATIONS
THA FOR POSTTRAUMATIC HIPMinimizing Complications Reducing Complications: • Careful preoperative assessment: • - bone loss • - fracture nonunion • - r/o infection • Know what you are up against
THA FOR POSTTRAUMATIC HIP Minimizing Complications Reducing Complications: • Anticipate more blood loss (cell saver) • Longer operative time • Exposure difficulties (choose based on preference/HO/hardware)
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FXReducing Complications Anticipate Special Needs (Intra/Postop): • Pelvic reconstruction plates • Autogenous bone grafting • Metal cutting instruments • HO prophylaxis
THA AFTER ACETABULAR FX Conclusions • Good planning, careful execution • Modern technology • Usually excellent results despite technical challenges • The patients like these operations--they have a previous failure and you fix it
