Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report on the results of performing modular cementless total hip arthroplasty with a simultaneous subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy in patients with high hip dislocation.
Materials and Methods : We evaluated 23 patients (24 hips) with high hip dislocation and who had undergone total hip arthroplasty using a proximally modular cementless stem in combination with a subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy in order to place the acetabular cup at the level of the anatomic hip center between May 1996 and June 2008. There were 6 males and 17 females with a mean age of 44 years. The mean duration of follow-up was 5.6 years.
Results: The mean Harris hip score improved from 53 points preoperatively to 88 points at the time of final followup (P<0.001), and there were good or excellent results in 21 hips (87.5%). There was one instance of isolated loosening of the acetabular component. With the exception of one hip requiring revision surgery at 12 years postoperatively because of polyethylene wear and cup loosening, all the remaining components were well-fixed at the time of the last follow-up. A total of 4 hips (17%) had complications during follow-up; one dislocation, two transient femoral nerve palsies and one nonunion of the subtrochanteric osteotomy site.
Conclusion: Modular cementless total hip arthroplasty with a subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy in patients with high hip dislocation was associated with excellent clinical outcomes while it minimized additional fixation of the osteotomy site.
