Lateral Shelf Acetabuloplasty in Perthes Disease

January 24, 2020 updated by: Hesham Mohamed Elbaseet, Assiut University

Lateral Shelf Acetabuloplasty for Treatment of Older Children With Perthes Disease

The incidence of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) ranges from 0.4/100,000 to 29.0/100,000 children <15 years of age. There is significant variability in incidence within racial groups and is frequently higher in lower socioeconomic classes. The typical age at presentation ranges from 4 to 8 years (average 6.5 years).The optimal treatment goal in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is to obtain a spherical femoral head with good congruency to prevent or delay the onset of osteoarthritis after skeletal maturity. There is agreement that patients younger than 5years with a good remodeling capacity have a particularly excellent prognosis, irrespective of treatment.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Older children more than 8 years usually have a poor prognosis, especially without treatment. Apart from the age at diagnosis and surgery, the severity of femoral head flattening and the signs of "head at risk" are also associated with the final clinical outcome. The current surgical treatment options, including proximal femoral varus osteotomy, innominate osteotomy, lateral shelf acetabuloplasty,triple pelvic osteotomy, and Chiari pelvic osteotomy have proved to be effective in covering the femoral head within the acetabulum. To promote the coverage of the femoral head, shelf acetabuloplasty directly increases the size of the acetabulum by implanting graft bone to the lateral rim. When used as salvage surgery, it may provide relief from pain and benefit the involved hip via femoral head flattening, especially in older children. It also improves the spherical remodeling of the femoral head and acetabulum by stimulating lateral acetabular growth. Lateral shelf acetabuloplasty is able to increase the coverage of the femoral head, which is an important tissue for remodeling and preventing further femoral head deformation.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

4 years to 10 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Harris hip score
Time Frame: 6 months

Harris hip score is one of the most commonly used hip score for assessment of hip function.It assess the following items:Pain,support,distance walked, limp, activities-shoes and socks,stairs, public transportation, sitting,flexion deformity, abduction, adduction and external rotation range.The score of these items are summed together to get the total score. Grading according to this score as follows:

<70= Poor ,70 - 79= Fair, 80-89=Good, 90 -100=Excellent.

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
