Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of total hip arthroplasty (THA) with or without dual mobility cup (DMC) vs. hemiarthroplasty (HA) in elderly Asian patients with acute femoral neck fracture (FNF).
Methods: Data of 284 elderly FNF patients treated at our institution from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into the DMC-THA group (THA with DMC, n = 102), C-THA group (conventional THA without DMC, n = 88), and HA group (n = 94). The study assessed perioperative outcomes, hip functional recovery, treatment satisfaction, long-term prognosis, and quality of life.
Results: The Harris Hip Scores in the DMC-THA group were significantly higher than those in the C-THA and HA groups at 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year postoperatively (P < 0.05). The satisfaction rate in the DMC-THA group (92.2%) was significantly higher compared to the C-THA (81.8%) and HA groups (80.9%) (P < 0.05). At 1 year post-surgery, the DMC-THA group demonstrated a significantly lower dislocation rate (2.0% vs. 9.1%) and superior mobility compared to the C-THA group (P < 0.05). Additionally, the DMC-THA group exhibited significantly better mobility and reduced pain/discomfort compared to the HA group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: THA with DMC offers superior joint function recovery, a lower dislocation rate, and improved quality of life compared to conventional THA and HA, positioning it as a preferred surgical option for elderly patients with acute FNF.
期刊介绍:
Evidence of surgical interventions go back to prehistoric times. Since then, the field of surgery has developed into a complex array of specialties and procedures, particularly with the advent of microsurgery, lasers and minimally invasive techniques. The advanced skills now required from surgeons has led to ever increasing specialization, though these still share important fundamental principles.
Frontiers in Surgery is the umbrella journal representing the publication interests of all surgical specialties. It is divided into several “Specialty Sections” listed below. All these sections have their own Specialty Chief Editor, Editorial Board and homepage, but all articles carry the citation Frontiers in Surgery.
Frontiers in Surgery calls upon medical professionals and scientists from all surgical specialties to publish their experimental and clinical studies in this journal. By assembling all surgical specialties, which nonetheless retain their independence, under the common umbrella of Frontiers in Surgery, a powerful publication venue is created. Since there is often overlap and common ground between the different surgical specialties, assembly of all surgical disciplines into a single journal will foster a collaborative dialogue amongst the surgical community. This means that publications, which are also of interest to other surgical specialties, will reach a wider audience and have greater impact.
The aim of this multidisciplinary journal is to create a discussion and knowledge platform of advances and research findings in surgical practice today to continuously improve clinical management of patients and foster innovation in this field.
