- W2530435876 abstract "Introduction: Management of Ficat stage III and IV hip osteonecrosis remains a formidable challenge in regards to long term care. We report a case of a hemiresurfacing arthroplasty lasting 23 years in a patient who received the implant for osteonecrosis associated with corticosteroid use following kidney transplantation. In 1981, a moderately obese, 27-year-old man presented with bilateral osteonecrotic collapse of the femoral heads secondary to heavy immunosuppressive corticosteroid therapy associated with a kidney transplant. The patient had suffered a loss of both kidneys after a bout of severe nephritis that resulted in replacement with a cadaver kidney in 1979. A cemented THARIES (total hip articular replacement with internal eccentric shells) metal-on-polyethylene resurfacing (Zimmer, Warsaw, Indiana) was implanted in the right hip in 1981. At 3 years post-operatively, the patient complained of acute, exacerbated pain in his right hip. The THARIES components were removed for acetabular and femoral loosening and replaced with a total hip replacement.Surgery: The acetabular cartilage of the other hip was rated intraoperatively as Grade III (no or minimal acetabular cartilage involvement), and was deemed suitable for hemiresurfacing. A 50 millimeter custom cemented titanium shell (Zimmer, Warsaw, Indiana ) was implanted using a lateral incision and a trans-trochanteric approach. The patient continued to be assessed by the surgeon on a regular basis, and returned to an active lifestyle while his kidney function continued to be regulated with corticosteroids and imoran. In 1989, eight years following hemiresurfacing, the left hip radiographs showed a reduced joint space, with further new bone in the acetabular fossa, and the patient continued to do well. UCLA hip scores were 9, 9, 10, and 7 for pain, walking, function and activity, respectively compared with 6, 6, 4, and 4 preoperatively. Radiographs taken at 18 years post-operatively showed further narrowing of the joint space, but the patient continued to be asymptomatic. At the 22-year clinic visit, the patient, now 50 years old, complained of slight groin pain, and some minor limitation in his activities, but was still able to walk without any method of support, and able to participate in recreational exercise including swimming, baseball, and weight lifting. The resurfacing hip was revised to a total hip at 23 years post-op and the specimen was submitted for implant retrieval analysis. This involved sectioning the component into three, 3-millimeter thick coronal slices, which were decalcified and routinely embedded in paraffin.Results: Hematoxylin and Eosin stained sections showed that the bone within the head was osteopenic but viable with areas of healed old necrotic segments of trabeculae which were surrounded by appositional new bone with some focal areas of recently formed woven bone. A fibrous membrane ranging from a few microns to 1.8 millimeters in thickness was present along most of the cement interface and this contained scattered particle-filled macrophages. There were occasional osteoclastic resorption fronts of bone against this membrane, but osteoblasts were also occasionally seen lining the non-membrane surface. The resurfaced head and neck showed remarkable preservation of bone stock. Although there was minimal cement penetration into the bone, either because of lack of initial penetration or from fragmentation of the cement over the years, the component was functionally well fixed. The bone was viable and there were minimal effects of the small amount of titanium metal debris.Discussion: Studies report osteonecrosis of the femoral head developing in approximately 11% of hips and 20% of patients receiving organ transplants and for young patients conservative methods need to be pursued. While the best choice of treatment for osteonecrosis is not universally agreed upon, the options are limited once collapse of the femoral head has occurred. Treatment for these patients should be based on the progression of the disease, the age of the patient, and the patient’s long-term needs. This patient had a hemiresurfacing and a metal-on-polyethylene resurfacing; the latter succumbed to polyethylene induced osteolysis, but the hemiresurfacing provided good clinical function in a young, normally active patient for 23 years. While it is recognized that hemiresurfacing is not suitable for every patient with osteonecrosis, it remains a treatment option for some patients." @default.
