Background: This study aimed to explore mid-term clinical results of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) with modified trochanteric osteotomy in Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
Methods: Thirteen patients (13 hips) with Crowe type IV DDH who underwent THA with modified trochanteric osteotomy between May 2013 and October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The mean follow-up duration was 5.2 years (range, 4.9-6.1 years).
Results: The mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) significantly (p < 0.05) improved from 30.7 (range, 22-38) to 87.5 (range, 83-93). The mean leg length discrepancy (LLD) was 53.4 mm (range, 42.1-68.5 mm) preoperatively. The final LLD was 5.6 mm (range, 2.4-9.1 mm; p < 0.05). The mean leg length after surgery was 47.4 mm (range, 33.6-67.2 mm) and the femur shortening distance was 43.8 mm (range, 31.2-53.4 mm). The average duration of bone union for the greater trochanter (GT) was 2.5 months (range, 1.5-3.6 months). There was no infection, GT non-union, or loosening (septic or aseptic) of the stem or cup in any case.
Conclusions: THA with modified trochanteric osteotomy with a cementless cup is an effective treatment for Crowe type IV DDH. It can rebuild complex biomechanics and biology of hip dysplasia without increasing complications.

: Trochanteric femoral fractures pose significant surgical challenges, particularly in elderly patients. Intramedullary nailing (IMN) and plate fixation (PF) are the primary operative strategies, yet their comparative efficacy and safety remain debated. This meta-analysis synthesizes randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate clinical, functional, perioperative, and biomechanical outcomes of IMN versus PF specifically in trochanteric fractures.

Cephalomedullary nails are widely used to fix unstable femoral trochanteric fractures nowadays. However, for reverse obliquity trochanteric (ROT) fractures, the fixation failure rate of existing cephalomedullary nails is high, resulting in many complications. Our team aimed to propose the modified intramedullary nail-II (MIN-II) to improve the fixation effects of ROT fractures and make biomechanical comparisons between MIN-II and three other cephalomedullary nails by finite element method.

Background: We conducted a retrospective study of prospectively collected data to find the thirty-day and one-year mortality rate among geriatric patients with surgically operated hip fractures, and to evaluate the possible association with various non-modifiable and modifiable factors amongst deceased and survivors.
Methods: All elderly patients (above 60 years) with hip fractures (trochanteric or/and femoral neck) admitted and operated between July 2018 to February 2024 and having a minimum follow-up of 4.5 months (18 weeks) if alive, were included.

Introduction Congenital hip dislocation (CHD) represents a long-standing public health issue in Morocco, with a late diagnosis often leading to advanced joint degeneration. While periacetabular osteotomy is preferred in young adults with preserved joint space, total hip arthroplasty (THA) becomes necessary in end-stage cases. However, THA poses challenges due to anatomical deformities and the increased likelihood of revision surgeries.

Objectives: This scoping review aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of orthobiologics in the treatment of Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS), with a focus on pain relief, functional improvement, and quality of life.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and CINAHL for studies published from January 1, 2000, to March 20, 2024. Eligible studies included case series, cohort studies, case-control studies, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the use of orthobiologics for GTPS.
