Q

Bracing for Labral tear surgery

A

Often use different types of braces, and limit motion in the hip.
This is pretty new, so we may not have seen these much in the clinic. One of our labs will actually be putting braces on.
Can dial in ROM limits. During surgery MD will do PROM and see where excessive strain is starting. They determine safe ROM, and then set the brace accordingly

90-0 is typically the safe range

Guideline is about 6 weeks MINIMUM.
Some motion is helpful to the joint, but the labrum must be protected!

Q

Labral Repair Surgery

A

Will do if labrum looks salvagable on MRI/MRA

Lots of different ways to repair

Use suture anchors, which look like little barbs that go into the bone.

Sutures are then sewn around labrum to proximate it

Labral tear: Repair with graft

When is it appropriate (who gets one)?

Why would we go to that much trouble?

A
  • Young person, macro-traumatic injury, MRA shows labrum tear
  • We want to fix it and restore normal anatomy. The best is always to restore normal anatomy.

Q

Is blood supply to the femoral head a large concern in hip resurfacing (since the ligamentum teres, the main source of nutrition for the femoral head, is severed)?

A

blood supply is already bad usually before resurfacing (usually performed in older adults) so the fact that it is now totally cut off is not as concerning.

Q

MOI for FAI

A

many different MOI possible

Example given was direct macrotraumatic (fall on greater trochanter, where femoral head is jammed into acetabulum)

Macrotraumatic contusions often lead to degeneration because the affect the chrondrocyte cells. Many people get degeneration because of this from surgery itself.

Q

What is a new technique that surgeons are using more in place of THA?

A

Hip Resurfacing

Instead of literally whacking off entire femoral head, they smooth down the femoral head and put a cap on it

It is sort of a stop-gap measure, so it is good for several years, but it doesn’t stop degeneration and eventually they still need THA. People can go back to a higher level of activity than if they had a THA

Five general advangates to Anterior approach to THA

(don’t worry about this as much)

A
  1. Can split the muscles more than cut through the muscles.(Typically, the less cutting you can do, the quicker the recovery)
  2. Pt is usually supine, easier to do C-Arm for radiographs and detect leg lenght differences
  3. NO Hip precuations for anterior apporach (but many still use)
  4. Shorter hpsital stay and

Q

Hip Labral repair with graft: how to perform

A
  1. Debride bad tissue first and burr the bone to create subchondral bleeding because it will facilitate healing
  2. Will take some tissue (usually allograph), and put along periphery and sow it down.
  3. “artificial” way to try to compensate for incompetent labrum in the hip.

Q

Vascularity is important in labral surgery decisions because

A

It can tell you how likely a repair is to be successful. Better outcomes will happen in more vascularized areas. There is a test that can show vascularization and the sections of the labrum can be caterorized into areas that can be resected or repaired.

Q

Log roll test

A

Roll leg back and forth when patient is supine and relaxed.

The single most specific test for hip pathology (no research to back that up). Dr. Byrd says to do it. It allows the articular surface of the femoral head in relation to the acetabulum but does not stress any of the surrounding extra-articular structures. Clinical experience of Dr. Byrd indicates we should do it.

40
Q

  1. Anterior Labral Tear test (FADDIR)
  2. Posterior Labral Tear test
42
Q

Barb Springer Study

A

A study that tested the ability of clinical exams to detect labral tears (verified by hip arthroscopy).

Found that both were pretty close (and the PT had the highest rate of detection of the clinicians)

43
Q

Hip Arthroscopy - multiple co-morbidities

A

often pt has comorbidities, so surgeon won’t do just one thing.

Make sure you read the surgical notes, so you know what happened.

45
Q

Who are the three best hip MDs in the world?

A

Three best Hip MDs in the world:

  1. Dr. Brian Kelly (one of the three best in world)
  2. Dr. Philipon (more innovative one)
  3. Dr. Thomas Byrd (probably the best scientist, has been doing longer - the other two trained with him)
46
Q

A

Hip Arthroscopy (increase)

47
Q

Four common lateral hip compartment pathologies:

A
  1. External snapping hip
  2. Trochanteric bursitis
  3. Gluteus medius tendinopathy
  4. TFL & ITB problems
48
Q

What is a C-Arm

A

A CT device used during hip surgery.

It is easily positioned during hip surgery to be able to take radiographs during the procedure to make sure it is completed properly.

49
Q

What is Hip Microfracture?

A

Becoming one of the most common procedures in the hip
Using more in the knee and ankle (talus) too

grade III or Grade IV. Almost down to the bone. A mess
Cartilage defect

Take out all the damaged cartalige
Take an Awl (surgical tool) and put poke-holes into the bone to stimulate stem cells to form a mesenchymal clot which creates fibrocartilage. Must do by hand, not a drill

TAKE HOME: it creates FIBROCARTILAGE (like the retread on your tires, it is not quite as good as hyaline. Better than none, but not as good as original)

50
Q

Surgical Management of FAI: Three considerations

A
  1. Presence of other related pathology should be considered and treated accordingly (very important to be extra-aware of co-morbidities)
  2. FAI is a structureal deformity that appears to have a potential relationship with other hip intra-articular pathology
  3. FAI is an underlying cause in 55% of patients with labral tears
50
Q

Three complications of THA that particulary apply to metal on metal joints:

A
  1. Metallosis
  2. Cobalt Poisoning
  3. Lawsuits
52
Q

Is giving way in the hip always due to bony/connective tissue instability?

A

No

Giving way may not always be due to an unstable hip. Giving way here is a pain inhibition reflex (not under their control). Much more likely to be a pain inhibition than instability.

53
Q

When and How do you perform a microfracture?

A

Perform when cartilage is all torn up and won’t heal. Purpose is to stimulate formation of new cartilage (but it will be fibrocartilage)

  1. Take out all the damaged cartalige (all the way back to the good cartilage - smooth it out)
  2. Take an Awl (surgical tool) and put poke-holes into the bone to stimulate stem cells to form a mesenchymal clot which creates fibrocartilage. Must do by hand, not a drill
  3. Allow to heal (hopefully will generate new (fibro)cartilage
55
Q

Macrotraumatic contusions often lead to hip _________ because they affect _____________.

A

degeneration

chrondrocyte cells

56
Q

Three types THA component materials

A

Polyethelyene
Metal
Ceramic

56
Q

If you use cemented prosthesis on one side of joint, must you use the same type on the other side?

A

Could be any combination of cemented or uncemented on acetabulation and femur. usually would go with same type in both areas unless there is a good clinical reason to do mixed.

57
Q

Trendelenburg sign

A

One hip drops.

The contralateral hip (to the one that is dropping) that is having a problem here

58
Q

Pincer-type impingement

A
  • More common in middle aged athletic women
  • Occurs when ther is an abnormal amount of increased coverage fromt he acetabulum (can be bony overgrowth). It sticks out further.
  • Repeated contact between the femoral neck and the prominent anterior aspect of the acetabular rim leads to initial lamage of the labrum, and ofthen a contre-coup lesion leading to premautre wear of the posterior articular surface.
  • Best detected by Posterior Labral Tear Test (Davies FABER)
60
Q

what kind of cartilage does microfracture generate?

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

61
Q

Glute Med Tendon Repair

A

Greater trochanteric rupture of the tendon.

Put sutures there and pull that down and repair that to the greater trochanter. Just like a supraspinatus tear

62
Q

Extra-Articular Hip Arthroscopy

A

Funny name since

It is not in the joint, so it is really ENDOscopic (outside the joint)

Main example: Glute Med tendon repair

63
Q

Non surgical managment of FAI

A

Has been suggested to have little place because it cannot eliminate hte hpathomechanics of structural deformities

We might do some modalities.

Maybe 1-2 grade mobs

Some flexibility exercises

But ALWAYS follow up with therapeutic exercise

But because it is a bony problem PTs are not effective.

64
Q

CAM-type Impingement

A
  1. More common in young athletic men
  2. Occurs most commonly with flexion and IR.
  3. Femoral head/neck abnormality leads to jamming of the head-neck junction causes an outside-in intra-substance avulsion of the labrum (loosening) from the adjoining acetabular cartilage.
  4. Best detected by Anterior Labral Tear Test (Davies FADIR/FAIR)

72
Q

FAI: Clusters of s/s (7)

A

Subjective (All of these could be potential indications of labral tears or something going on intraarticularly):

  1. Gradual onset of sharp groin pain
  2. Worsens with athletic activities requiring an excessive demand on hip flexion (91%)
  3. Patient experiences night pain (71%)
  4. Pt may report mechanical symptoms (locking, catching, giving -way [due to pain inhibition of muscle]) indicative of labral tear or injury of articular cartilage.

Objective:

  3. No ER past 0 degrees

Follow for at least 6 weeks

78
Q

What is a typical posture of a patient when we go out to meet them (if they are sitting or standing)?

A

Sitting: trying to get into hip extension because flexion hurts because it compresses hip into acetabulum.

Standing: standing on contralateral leg with affected hip slightly flexed and non-weight bearing. (loose pack position feels better and non-weight bearing prevents compression of femoral head into acetabulam)

79
Q

Hip FAI

83
Q

What is the best imaging technique to detect a labral tear?

How does it work to detect labral tear?

A

MRA with Gallium dye

Inject Gallium dye into joint. If there is a defect in the labrum, it leaks (exravigates) out and shows on MRA

Q

What is Hip-Resurfacing?

A

not a THA

Instead of literally whacking off entire femoral head, they smooth down the femoral head and put a cap on it

It is sort of a stop-gap measure, so it is good for several years, but it doesn’t stop degeneration and eventually they still need THA. People can go back to a higher level of activity than if they had a THA

  3. Repair with Graft (rebuild it)

Q

What is nano-fracture?
