Purpose: To evaluate the results of total hip arthroplasty (THA) and the factors affecting the result in highly dislocated hips.
Materials and Methods: We reviewed 18 highly dislocated hip in 18 patients who underwent THA between October 1996 and October 1999. The mean age was 42.2 years (22~61), and the average follow-up period 40 months (26~60).
Ed-the following data all belong in the results, not M&M, section.
Results: Etiologic diseases were septic or tuberculosis hip sequelae in 12 hips and sequelae of congenital dislocation of the hip in 6. Pseudarthroses were avident in 7 hips and telescoping in 12. Among the 12 telescoping hips, 2 featured pseudarthrosis and 10 did not. The average difference of spino-malleolar distance (SMD) was 6.4 §¯ (2.3~14.0); 5.4 §¯ in the pseudarthrosis group, and 7.2 §¯ in the group without pseudarthrosis. Harris hip score was 47.5 (32~65).
The hip center was made at the anatomic hip center in all cases except one. The average possible SMD gain was 4.4 §¯ (1.8~6.6), with combined shortening subtrochanteric osteotomy in 4 femora. SMD gain was 2.2 §¯ (1.8~2.7), in the pseudarthrosis group and 5.8 §¯ (4.7~6.6) in the group without pseudarthrosis. Harris hip score was 79.7 (72~87).
Conclusion: THA for highly dislocated hips showed fair to good results, and pseudarthrosis and telescoping were important factors in determining leg lengthening.
