Less Acetabular Coverage Predicts the Failure of Core Decompression for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Objective It is unclear whether less acetabular coverage is associated with the failure of core decompression (CD) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of CD for ONFH with small‐ or medium‐sized pre‐collapse lesions, and determine what f...

Zusammenfassung:Objective It is unclear whether less acetabular coverage is associated with the failure of core decompression (CD) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of CD for ONFH with small‐ or medium‐sized pre‐collapse lesions, and determine what factors, especially acetabular anatomical parameters, predict the failure of CD. Methods Between January 2010 and December 2022, we retrospectively reviewed 269 consecutive CDs in 188 patients diagnosed with ONFH with small‐ or medium‐sized pre‐collapse lesions. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to evaluate the survival rate of CD for ONFH with progression of collapse or conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) as the endpoint. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the potential risk factors for the failure of CD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was further performed with conversion to THA as the endpoint to determine the predictive value of these factors. Results The overall 5‐year survival rate of CD for ONFH with small‐ or medium‐sized pre‐collapse lesions was 74.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) 69.0%–81.1%) with progression of collapse as the endpoint and 83.9% (95% CI 79.3%–88.7%) with conversion to THA as the endpoint. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that bilateral affected hips was significantly associated with progression of collapse, and center‐edge angle (CEA), sharp angle, acetabular head index (AHI), as well as acetabular depth ratio (ADR) were significantly associated with both progression of collapse and conversion to THA. Multivariate logistic regression analysis further indicated that CEA and AHI were independent risk factors for both progression of collapse and conversion to THA. ROC curve analysis with conversion to THA as the endpoint revealed that the cutoff values for CEA and AHI were 26.8° (sensitivity = 74.4%, specificity = 78.6%, area under the curve (AUC) = 0.809) and 79.8 (sensitivity = 78.4%, specificity = 73.8%, AUC = 0.818), respectively. Conclusions CD showed satisfactory clinical outcomes for ONFH with small‐ or medium‐sized pre‐collapse lesions where less acetabular coverage with a CEA
