- Use of closed suction drainage after primary total hip arthroplasty: a prospective randomized controlled trial(2018) FAGOTTI, Lorenzo; EJNISMAN, Leandro; MIYAHARA, Helder de Souza; GURGEL, Henrique de Melo Campos; CROCI, Alberto Tesconi; VICENTE, Jose Ricardo NegreirosABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to investigate drain use in a controlled population of patients with hip osteoarthritis undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty. Methods: This prospective controlled trial evaluated 93 patients randomized into two groups: a group that received drains and a group that did not. The patients who were randomized to the drain group used a 3.2 mm drain placed under the fascia that was kept in place for 24 h. Postoperative evaluations were performed after 24 h and then three, six, and 12 weeks after total hip arthroplasty. The primary outcome was perioperative blood loss in both groups 24 h after total hip arthroplasty. The other parameters that were evaluated included mid-thigh circumference, the rate of blood transfusion, hematocrit, inflammatory serum levels, and the Harris Hip Score. Results: The clinical and laboratory data revealed no differences between the study groups with respect to blood loss and need for blood transfusion, duration of hospital stay, reoperation rate, complications, inflammatory serum markers, and the Harris Hip Score. Patients without closed suction drainage reported higher pain levels after 24 h (VAS score 1 vs. 2, p < 0.01). Conclusion: Similar clinical and laboratory outcomes were found in both cohorts.
- TWO CLASSIFICATIONS FOR SURGICAL WOUND HEMATOMA AFTER TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT(2018) FAGOTTI, Lorenzo; EJNISMAN, Leandro; GURGEL, Henrique de Melo Campos; MIYAHARA, Helder de Souza; CROCI, Alberto Tesconi; VICENTE, Jose Ricardo NegreirosObjective: To determine the reliability of two classification methods for wound hematoma after total hip replacement. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted on patients who underwent total hip replacement for hip osteoarthritis between May 2014 and April 2015. Epidemiological, surgical, and functional data were assessed. Two experienced hip surgeons evaluated 75 pictures of wounds taken 24 hours after surgery. Both evaluators performed the analysis twice, with a 6-week interval between the two analyses. The subjective classification was divided into four different categories describing the hematoma: absent, mild, moderate, and severe. The objective classification was derived from mathematical calculation of the area of the hematoma using a grid superimposed on a picture of the wound. Results: The subjective classification demonstrated an intra-rater agreement of more than 70%, while kappa values showed poor to moderate inter-rater reliability. The objective classification based on mathematical measurements of the hematoma area was more reliable, with good to excellent intra-and inter-rater reliability. Conclusion: The objective classification demonstrated higher intra-and inter-rater reliability. The classification methods used in this study could serve as a useful instrument for orthopedic surgeons, researchers, and health care providers when assessing wound hematomas after total hip replacement.
- What is the role of core decompression in the early stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head? Evaluation of the surgical result by functional score and radiological follow-up(2018) MIYAHARA, Helder de Souza; ROSA, Bruno Berbert; HIRATA, Fabio Yuiti; GURGEL, Henrique de Melo Campos; EJNISMAN, Leandro; VICENTE, José Ricardo NegreirosABSTRACT Objectives: This study is aimed at evaluating whether core decompression of the femoral head in the early stages of femoral head osteonecrosis improves patients' subjective perception of pain and avoids the progression of the disease to a femoral head collapse and a final indication of total hip arthroplasty. Methods: Eighteen patients (30 hips) in the early stages of the disease (Ficat and Arlet 1 and 2A) were evaluated through clinical, radiological, risk factor maintenance, and by the functional Merle D'Aubigné, and Postel score before and after core decompression of the femoral head. Results: There was an improvement of symptoms up to the sixth month in 83.3% of the hips evaluated through the Merle D'Aubigné and Postel score. However, 73.3% of the cases evolved with femoral head collapse, and in 50%, total hip arthroplasty was indicated regardless of whether or not the risk factors were maintained. Conclusions: Core decompression of the femoral head improves patients' pain early in the initial stages of the pathology. However, it does not alter the prognosis and the ultimate indication of total hip arthroplasty in the final stages of the disease.
- A modified iliofemoral approach to intrapelvic acetabular revision - technical note(2018) VICENTE, José Ricardo Negreiros; MIYAHARA, Helder de Souza; EJNISMAN, Leandro; SOUZA, Bruno de Biase; GURGEL, Henrique Melo; CROCI, Alberto TesconiABSTRACT Among the patterns of acetabular osteolysis associated with acetabular loosening, the authors emphasize the severity of pelvic dissociation and medial segmental losses in which the quadrilateral lamina is severely affected. Such lesions are potentially lethal in cases of large vascular injury. This note aimed to describe a modified iliofemoral approach in cases of massive intrapelvic migration of the acetabular component in patients with total proximity of the iliac vascular bundle and absence of an anatomical demarcation plane between the migrated contents and the iliac bundle. This approach was performed in 12 of 21 patients who had these criteria.
