This retrospective study evaluated the long-term outcomes of Conus uncemented stems in patients with hip osteoarthritis secondary to DDH. Results showed improved quality of life post-surgery, with good osteointegration and no instances of loosening or infection reported.
Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is currently the best surgical option for hip osteoarthritis secondary to developmental hip dysplasia (DDH); it may be extremely challenging, because of the hypoplasic proximal metaphysis, pathological anteversion, and excessive cervico-diaphyseal angle of the neck at the femoral side. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the long-term survival and clinical and radiological results of Conus uncemented stems, implanted in patients affected by hip osteoarthritis with Crowe not-type IV secondary to DDH. Material and methods We identified 100 consecutive THAs performed for DDH in 63 women and 24 men, with an average age of 53 years in a single center. Thirteen patients underwent bilateral hip replacement. The patients' mean body mass index was 29.8 kg/m(2) (range 27.1-35.6 kg/m(2)). The main indications for surgery were severe hip pain and considerable functional impairment: the preoperative Harris Hip Score was 29.5 on average (range 22-61). Radiologically, 8 hips were classified as Crowe I, 43 hips as Crowe II, and 49 hips as Crowe III. In all cases, we implanted the Wagner femoral cone prosthesis using the direct lateral approach; in the attempt to reestablish native hip biomechanics, 66 stems were 135 degrees and 34 were 125 degrees. Results The mean follow-up of the study was 11.7 years (range 2.2-21.8 years). Harris Hip Score increased to a mean value of 71.5 points (range 52-93 points). Radiographic evaluation demonstrated osteointegration of the implant with stable bone growth observed at the stem-endosteum interface; signs of bone readaptation and thinning of the femoral calcar were present in nine hips. None of the patients underwent revision for septic or aseptic loosening of the stem; none sustained a periprosthetic fracture. Conclusions This study confirms the theoretical advantages that suggest the choice of the Wagner cone when technical difficulties during prosthetic surgery are expected owing to abnormal proximal femoral anatomy.
