Outcomes after THA in Patients with High Hip Dislocation after Childhood Sepsis

Abstract: To ascertain whether THA in patients with high dislocation after childhood sepsis would relieve pain and improve function, we assessed the rate of postoperative infection, improvement in Harris hip and WOMAC scores, and improvement in range of motion after the THA in 62 patients (62 hips) with high dislocation (Crowe Type 4) after childhood sepsis. The revision rate and the incidence of complications also were assessed. The mean age of the patients was 47.5 years. The minimum followup was 13 years (mean, 15.2 … Show more

“…Intraoperative fracture during insertion of the femoral component has been reported to range from 5% to 22% [2,8,9,18,20], and nonunion has been reported to vary between 8% and 29% [13,14,30]. We identified no perioperative fractures and speculate the prophylactic use of cerclage wiring minimized that risk.…”

“…Survivorship analysis predicted an overall 15-year survival rate of 76% (86% for the cup and 82% for the stem). Kim et al [18] followed 62 hips with high dislocation after childhood sepsis for 13 to 17 years. The Harris hips score was on average 89, and the 15-year survival rates of the uncemented acetabular and femoral components were 94% and 95%, respectively.…”

“…The incidence of complications is higher than in standard cases, with intra-operative fracture rates from 5 to 22 % [2,9,33,34] and non-union rates from 8 to 29 % [2,35,36]. In our series, one case of non-union was recorded that was asymptomatic and required no further surgery.…”
