    Effect of osteosarcopenia on the development of a second compression fracture and mortality in elderly patients after vertebroplasty
    (Turkish Assoc Orthopaedics Traumatology, 2023) Kara, Gokhan Kursat; Ozturk, Cagatay
    Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of osteosarcopenia on second fracture development and mortality in patients aged above 60 years undergoing vertebroplasty because of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on 104 patients treated by vertebroplasty because of OVF between 2016 and 2021. The L3 vertebra Hounsfield unit values and the psoas muscle index (PMI) values measured at the L3 vertebra level were obtained from the patients' medical data and computed tomography images. Using these measurements, the patients were divided into 3 groups: only osteoporosis (OO group), only sarcopenia (OS group), and osteosarcopenia (OSP group). Differences between the groups were evaluated regarding second OVCF development and mortality. Results: The study included 104 patients, comprising 30 males and 74 females aged 60-92 years. The OS group included 10 patients, the OO group included 54 patients, and the OSP group consisted of 40 patients. A single vertebral fracture occurred in 72 patients, and 2 vertebral fractures occurred in 32 patients. The chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis results showed no statistically significant difference between the 3 groups for the risk of second vertebral fracture. Sarcopenia, either alone or in combination with osteoporosis, was seen to have a negative effect on the survival of patients who underwent vertebro-plasty following a vertebral fracture.Conclusion: This study has shown that osteosarcopenia did not increase the risk of developing a second vertebral fracture, but it increased mortality 2.8-fold for those who underwent vertebroplasty after vertebral fracture.

    Is the Acetabular Cup Orientation Different in Robot-Assisted and Conventional Total Hip Arthroplasty With Right-Handed Surgeons Using an Anterolateral Approach?
    (Springernature, 2023) Kara, Gokhan Kursat; Turan, Kayhan; Eroglu, Osman Nuri; Ozturk, Cagatay; Ertuerer, Erden
    Introduction Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most successful orthopaedic procedures. Survival rates from 90% at 10 years to 93% at 20 years have been reported in different studies. Differences in implant and patient characteristics can undoubtedly explain some of this variability observed in prosthesis durability, but the effect of surgical technique and implant orientation cannot be ignored. Therefore, many intraoperative methods (anatomic landmarks, intraoperative x-ray, fluoroscopy, navigation, and robotic surgery) have been attempted to avoid acetabular component malpositioning. Although postoperative computed tomography (CT) is accepted as the gold standard for the measurement of acetabular anteversion, it remains controversial in respect of costs and radiation exposure. The aim of this study was to examine how acetabular component orientation was affected in robotic and conventional THA operations performed by two surgeons with right-hand dominance.Material and methods The study included 113 primary THA operations performed on 113 patients between 2017 and 2022 in two groups: (i) robotic THA (Mako, Stryker Corporation, Kalamazoo, Michigan, United States) (55 patients) and (ii) conventional THA (58 patients). The patients comprised 51 males and 62 females. THA was performed on 54 right-side hips and 59 left-side hips. The operations were performed by two orthopaedic surgeons, each with 20 years of arthroplasty experience, on all the patients in the lateral decubitus position with an anterolateral approach. In all the cases, the orientation of the acetabular component was 40 & DEG; inclination and 20 & DEG; anteversion. Difficult THA procedures (patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), a history of hip surgery, revision THA, defect or deformity of the acetabulum, a history of scoliosis or lumbar posterior surgery, or those requiring proximal femoral osteotomy) were excluded from the study. Using the Liaw and Lewinnek methods, the acetabular component anteversion was measured on the radiographs taken in the optimal position postoperatively and the acetabular cup inclination angles were measured on the pelvis radiographs. The groups were compared using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Pearson Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U statistical tests. The limits were accepted as 40 & PLUSMN;5 & DEG; for inclination and 20 & PLUSMN;5 & DEG; for anteversion. Results No statistically significant difference was determined between the groups in respect of age, gender, or operated side. No statistically significant difference was determined between the optimal acetabular cup inclination angles of the robotic and conventional THA groups (p = 0.79). No statistically significant difference was determined between the optimal acetabular cup anteversion angles of the left and right conventional THA groups. Statistically significantly better results were determined in the robotic group in respect of acetabular cup anteversion (p<0,001). Conclusion The optimal orientation of the acetabular component is a key factor for successful THA. Otherwise, revision surgery is inevitable for reasons such as instability, impingement, or increased wear. The results of this study demonstrated that robotic surgery was superior to the conventional method in the placement of the acetabular component in the desired orientation.
