Radiographic preoperative templating of extra-offset cemented THA implants: How reliable is it and how does it affect survival?](/preview/png/4082387.png)
SummaryIntroductionSecuring femoral offset should in theory improve hip stability and abductor muscles moment arms. As problems arise mainly in case of originally increased offset (> 40 mm), a range of extra-offset stems is available; the exact impact in terms of fixation, however, is not known.HypothesisExtra-offset stems should more reliably reestablish original femoral offsets exceeding 40 mm than standard femoral components, limiting instability risk without possible adverse effect on fixation.ObjectiveTo compare the ability of five commonly available femoral stem designs to restitute offset exceeding 40 mm, and to assess function and cement fixation at a minimum 6 years’ follow-up in a stem conceived to reproduce such offset.Patients and methodsA continuous series of 74 total hip replacements (THR) in hips with increased (> 40 mm) femoral offset was studied. All underwent preoperative X-ray templating on Imagika™ software to assess offset reproduction by five models of stem: four standard, and one Lubinus SP2™ extra-offset stem. A retrospective clinical and X-ray study was conducted with a minimum 6 years’ follow-up on the Lubinus SP2™ 117° stems used to try to reproduce offset in the 74 THRs.ResultsApart from the increased (> 40 mm) offset, the cervicodiaphyseal angle was consistently < 135°, < 130° in 60 femurs (81%) and < 125° in 45 (60%). Planning showed the four standard stems to induce (> 5 mm femoral offset reduction in 50–83% of cases, versus only 25% with the Lubinus SP2™ 117°). All 74 hips received Lubinus SP2™ 117° stems: at a mean 78 months FU (range, 70–94 mo), their mean Postel-Merle d’Aubigné score was 17 ± 1.8 (range, 13–18). Five of the 74 THRs underwent surgical revision: three cases of loosening, in which the stem was replaced, and two of instability, without change of stem. Loosening was not related to offset reproduction quality; two of the three cases were due to initial cementing defect, and the third occurred in a femur with previous history of two osteotomies. There were four cases of dislocation (5.4%: two primary, which were not operated on, and two recurrent, managed by acetabular revision), despite good reproduction of the preoperative offset in three of the four cases. Mean 7-year implant survivorship was 95.1% (± 4.8).Discussion and conclusionThe anatomic form of the Lubinus™ SP2 117° should in theory provide a uniform cement mantle. Survivorship, however, is less good than for regular offset versions (126° or 135°). On the other hand, it does reproduce anatomy in case of > 40 mm offset, providing extra offset of more than 51 mm. The slightly shorter survivorship requires more long-term surveillance.Level of evidenceLevel IV, retrospective study.
