ANATOMY OF THE HIP BEFORE TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY: A TRIDIMENTIONNAL CT STUDY OF 469 PATIENTS

Le résumé fourni par la source

Introduction: Due to the diversity of the prosthetic implants for hip arthroplasty, a better matching between the implant and the intra and extra-medullary characteristic of the patient anatomy is now possible. This adaptation however requires a perfect understanding of the tridimensional characteristics of the patient hip anatomy. Little data are available in the literature. We aimed to analyze the muscular and bony anatomy of the hip at the time of arthroplasty. Material and Methods: data acquisition was performed according a standardized CT-scan in the same center for all patients within the standard workup before arthroplasty. Standardized measurements were obtained after automatic tridimensional bone reconstructions using dedicated software. 549 femurs in 469 patients including primitive coxarthrosis (COX), dysplasic development of the hip (DDH) and aseptic osteonecrosis (ONA) were analyzed. Mean age was 58 and 70% of the patients were women. Tridimensional reconstruction of the muscular anatomy of the hip was performed for 30 patients using manual contouring on dedicated software. Characteristics of the bony and muscular anatomy were then analyzed according to the etiology and correlations between bony and muscular anatomy were evaluated. Results: Concerning the bone analysis, mean offset was 23.2 ±1.5mm in the DDH group, 40.5±1.2 mm in the COX group and 29.6± 0.9mm in the ONA group(p Discussion: The results of our study demonstrated that bony and muscular anatomical characteristics were correlated with the etiology of the degenerative joint disease, with the patient body mass index and gender. Surgeons should be aware of these characteristics to improve the patient anatomy reconstruction during the arthroplasty.
