Review of quality of x-rays for templating for total hip arthroplasty / Faiz Khan in Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol. 81/1 (Mars 2015)

Public ISBD [article]  inActa Orthopaedica Belgica > Vol. 81/1 (Mars 2015) . - p. 72-76 Titre : Review of quality of x-rays for templating for total hip arthroplasty Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Faiz Khan, Auteur ; Tayyab Ahmad, Auteur ; Finbarr Condon, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p. 72-76 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Hip templating  Total hip arthroplasty  Preoperative hip arthroplasty planning Résumé : Digital templating of x-rays for total hip arthroplasty is used routinely for pre-operative planning. This is to assure that appropriately sized implants are selected to replicate patient’s hip biomechanics. Multiple studies have shown that templating does not always correspond to the final implants used. The aim of this study was to assess the suitability of the x-rays taken pre-operatively for templating for total hip arthro-plasty. We undertook a review of a series of pre-operative templating pelvis x-rays in 100 consecutive patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. These x-rays were compared against set criteria to determine their suitability for use for templating. We determined that six x-rays met the criteria whereas ninety four x-rays did not meet the criteria for suitable x-rays. Twenty patients had repeat x-rays. The reasons for unsuitability were inadequate opposite femur (66%), absence or incomplete template (54%), inadequate femur length (47%), external rotation (39%), absence of opposite hip (4%). The twenty repeated x-rays were also reviewed for the same parameters and two (10%) satisfied the established criteria. It is imperative that x-rays for templating for total hip arthroplasty are done to a strict standard to obtain an x-ray that is appropriate for templating and there is minimal exposure of the patient to irradiation.
