Protrusio acetabuli

Pyomyositis is defined as a pyogenic infection of skeletal muscles principally caused by Staphylococcus aureus. It can present either primarily without any associated soft tissue or bone infection or secondary to any surrounding or distant infection focus. Hip pericapsular pyomyositis is one of the most common types of primary pyomyositis. Although many cases are increasingly being described both in tropical and temperate climates, there is no published study regarding the sequelae of untreated pericapsular pyomyositis around the hip joint...

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to report the physiological and radiological long-term results of total hip arthroplasty (THA) combined with or without subtrochanteric osteotomy in a group of developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 90 hips of 59 patients (3 males, 56 females; mean age 45.7±10.9 years; range, 24 to 67 years) who underwent THA between January 1979 and March 2006. Thirteen patients needed subtrochanteric shortening...

Osteogenesis Imperfecta is an inherited disease characterized by easily-broken bones, which manifests as multiple fractures with minimal trauma, joint laxity, sclerosis, blue sclera, and several other manifestations. Protrusio acetabuli is defined as the displacement of the femoral head so that it lies medial to the ischioilial line. In a skeletally mature patient with both Marfan syndrome and PA, an eventual hip arthroplasty is the only method available for correction of the deformity. However, in patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta and PA, THA remains a controversial treatment...

BACKGROUND: Radiography is the initial imaging modality used to evaluate femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and diagnostic radiographic findings are well-established. However, the prevalence of these radiographic findings in patients with hip pain is unknown. PURPOSE: The purpose was 3-fold: (1) to determine the overall prevalence of radiographic FAI deformities in young patients presenting with hip pain, (2) to identify the most common radiographic findings in patients with cam-type FAI, and (3) to identify the most common radiographic findings in patients with pincer-type FAI...

We report a case of bilateral displaced acetabular fractures including both columns fractures with protrusio acetabuli in a female patient, aged 15 years, with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) (Sillence Type I), epilepsy, blue sclera and bilateral ipoacusia. Since OI is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an increased propensity to osteopenia, intraoperative fracture risks and hemorrhagic diathesis, we opted for the open reduction and internal fixation of the acetabula in two surgical steps and using two different approaches...

The age-dependent penetrance of organ manifestations in Marfan syndrome (MFS) is not known. The aims of this follow-up study were to explore how clinical features change over a 10-year period in the same Norwegian MFS cohort. In 2003-2004, we investigated 105 adults for all manifestations in the 1996 Ghent nosology. Ten years later, we performed follow-up investigations of the survivors (n = 48) who consented. Forty-six fulfilled the revised Ghent criteria. Median age: females 51 years, range 32-80 years; males 45 years, range 30-67 years...

Coxa profunda is a complex entity that can result in femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI). A meticulous evaluation of the type of acetabular overcoverage is essential to determine which treatment is best suited to each individual patient. Focal overcoverage with no posterior impingement can be treated by arthroscopic recontouring of the disproportionate acetabular wall. Any femoral deformities should be managed during the same procedure. General overcoverage, with predominant postero-inferior impingement, requires open surgery to obtain access to the entire acetabular rim...

Bruck syndrome (BRKS) is the rare disorder that features congenital joint contractures often with pterygia and subsequent fractures, early on called osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type XI (OMIM # 610968). Its two forms, BRKS1 (OMIM # 259450) and BRKS2 (OMIM # 609220), reflect autosomal recessive (AR) inheritance of FKBP10 and PLOD2 loss-of-function mutations, respectively. A 10-year-old girl was referred with blue sclera, osteopenia, poorly-healing fragility fractures, Wormian skull bones, cleft soft palate, congenital fusion of cervical vertebrae, progressive scoliosis, bell-shaped thorax, restrictive and reactive pulmonary disease, protrusio acetabuli, short stature, and additional dysmorphic features without joint contractures...

PURPOSE: Radiological evaluation of femoroacetabular impingement is based on single-plane parameters such as the alpha angle or the center edge angle, or complex software reconstruction. A new simple classification for cam and pincer morphologies, based on a two-plane radiological evaluation, is presented in this study. The determination of the intraobserver and interobserver reliability of this new classification is the purpose of this study. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the three-view hip study in patient undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome between October 2015 and April 2016...

The authors report on the assessment of an anthropogenic mummy of a young man from the Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo, Sicily, tentatively dated from the mid- to late 19th century AD. The mummy was investigated by full-body CT examination. CT images clearly showed aortic dissection classified as Stanford-A. Due to the relation of aortic dissection to inherited connective tissue diseases in young people, such as Marfan syndrome, conspicuous and pathological findings possibly indicating the presence of underlying Marfan syndrome were assessed...

BACKGROUND: The treatment of acetabular protrusions during total hip arthroplasty of patients with rheumatoid arthritis is difficult. A lack of bone stock, deficient medial cup support, and medialization of the joint center in those with protrusio acetabuli must be addressed during acetabular reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to assess the short-term clinical results of total hip arthroplasty in patients with severe acetabular protrusions secondary to rheumatoid arthritis...

AIMS: Dislocation rates are reportedly lower in patients requiring proximal femoral hemiarthroplasty than for patients undergoing hip arthroplasty for neoplasia. Without acetabular replacement, pain due to acetabular wear necessitating revision surgery has been described. We aimed to determine whether wear of the native acetabulum following hemiarthroplasty necessitates revision surgery with secondary replacement of the acetabulum after proximal femoral replacement (PFR) for tumour reconstruction...

This study compared patients who underwent femoral head microfracture with a control group of patients who did not require microfracture. Patients had more than 2 years of follow-up. The patient groups had similar demographic and radiographic features, including sex, age within 5 years, body mass index within 5 points, equal Tönnis grade, lateral center edge angle within 5°, labral treatment, and capsular closure vs release. Inclusion criteria were a minimum of 2 years of follow-up, Outerbridge grade IV cartilage damage, and femoral head marrow stimulation technique performed at the time of arthroscopy...

Many of the described labral-reconstruction procedures are purely arthroscopic. This approach only allows segmentary reconstructions. For more extensive reconstructions, surgical dislocation of the hip still represents the more suitable approach. We present an arthroscopy-assisted procedure combined with an anterior mini-open approach, which could be considered for reconstruction of nonrepairable labral lesions located in the posterior aspect of the acetabulum and massive reconstructions in cases of global-pincer femoroacetabular impingement and protrusio acetabuli...

INTRODUCTION: Intrapelvic complications resulting from total hip arthroplasty are rare. Intrapelvic migration of the acetabular cup along with proximal migration of the femoral stem is one of these entities. Despite being a rare entity, there are serious complications. CASE REPORT: We report a case image of an elderly lady who presented 6 months after total hip arthroplasty to her general practitioner and gynaecologist complaining of a palpable hard pelvic mass as well as difficulty walking...

BACKGROUND: Protrusio acetabuli is a rare anatomic pattern of the hip in which the femoral head protrudes into the true pelvis. The increased depth of the hip and the excessive size of the lunate surface typically lead to severe pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI); however, to our knowledge, there are no published mid- or long-term studies on results of circumferential acetabular rim trimming through a surgical hip dislocation for patients with this condition. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: (1) What is the 10-year survivorship of the hips treated with circumferential rim trimming through a surgical hip dislocation compared with a control group of hips that underwent surgery for pincer FAI but that did not have protrusio acetabuli? (2) What are the factors that were associated with a decreased likelihood of survivorship in those hips with the following endpoints: total hip arthroplasty, Merle d'Aubigné score of less than 15, and/or radiographic progression of osteoarthritis (OA)? (3) Does the radiographic pattern of degeneration differ between the two groups? METHODS: We performed a case-control study comparing two groups: a protrusio group (32 patients [39 hips]) and a control group (66 patients [86 hips])...

BACKGROUND: Thoracolumbar kyphosis has been considered as the first presenting deformity and is often a key diagnostic clue noted in children with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type IV (Morquio's syndrome). However, we observed that the progressive irregularities of the epiphyses of the long bones were the most prominent skeletal pathology, causing effectively the development of diverse forms of lower limbs deformities with extreme variation in age of onset. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten patients (seven children and three adults) with an average age of 15 years have been enrolled in this study...
