Aseptic Revision of Total Hip Arthroplasty With a Single Modular Femoral Stem and a Modified Extended Trochanteric Osteotomy—Treatment Assessment With the Forgotten Joint Score-12

BACKGROUND: Aseptic loosening is among the most common reasons for revision total hip arthroplasty (RTHA). Modular revision stems implanted through an extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO) promise good results, but patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are rarely conveyed. This study used the Fo...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Aseptic loosening is among the most common reasons for revision total hip arthroplasty (RTHA). Modular revision stems implanted through an extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO) promise good results, but patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are rarely conveyed. This study used the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12) to assess patient-reported outcome in patients who had undergone RTHA for aseptic stem loosening using a modified ETO approach with a tapered, fluted modular stem. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A single-center analysis of aseptic RTHA was performed (2007–2019). Clinical results (range of motion, walking ability, function), radiographic results (ETO healing, stem subsidence), and PROMs (FJS-12, Harris Hip Score, European Quality of Life 5D Score) were assessed. Minimum follow-up duration was 1 year. Complications including revisions were recorded. RESULTS: Primary outcome parameters were assessed on 72 patients (mean age 73.3 years, mean body mass index 27.6kg/m(2)). Additional PROMs were collected by phone interviews from 41 patients (mean follow-up 5.7 years). In 76%, leg length was restored, and a normal gait was achieved. After 1 year, the ETO was healed in 93%; subsidence occurred in 8.3% of cases. The mean FJS-12 at the final follow-up was 85.6 ± 23.6, and the respective Harris Hip Score and European Quality of Life 5D Score averaged 87 ± 17.8 and 72.9 ± 15.9. Complication and revision rates were 33.3% and 13.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Aseptic RTHA as presented here resulted in excellent PROMs in the medium term. FJS-12 score averaged 85.6 with a mean follow-up of 5.7 years. Treatment using a modular implant and a modified ETO was associated with good clinical and radiographic outcomes. Complication and revision rates were 33.3% and 13.9%, respectively.
