Twenty-Five Years Followup of Patients Who Had Valgus Osteotomy for Arthritic Hips

Abstract: We reviewed the long-term outcomes of intertrochanteric valgus femoral osteotomies in patients with arthritic hips to clarify any influencing factors. One hundred six patients (127 hips) were followed up during an average of 25 years. The average age of the patients at surgery was 42 years. The preoperative extent of degenerative change was classified radiologically into one of four grades according to the criteria of Tönnis. Radiographic measurements of acetabular coverage were made using AP radiographs obtai… Show more

“…Because patients with bilateral disease cannot protect the other side, the probability of progression of degenerative arthritis may be greater, and thus the choice of therapy has been difficult in such patients [11]. Kawate et al [13] reported, at the 25-year followup of patients who had valgus osteotomy for arthritic hips, the mean score of patients with unilateral hip involvement was higher than that of patients with bilateral involvement. Hisatome et al [11] reported a 10-year survivorship rate of 86.9% in 61 bilaterally affected cases subjected to unilateral rotational acetabular osteotomy in which symptoms on the unoperated side were mild and in which the end point was radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis progression.…”

“…24 Mou et al compared two surgical methods and found that one was better than another in the coverage rate, indicating that the higher the coverage rate, the better. 25 Most previous studies agreed that a higher acetabular coverage rate would give lower revision, 26,27 although this topic is still to be further explored. There is little research reporting the relationship among the Trilogy, the coverage rates and revision rates.…”
