Metal ions are present in almost all types of hip replacement; on the whole, however, the risk of revision for resurfacing due to metal-related pathologies is very low, but higher than in other types of bearings. There are studies that show that some brands of MoM resurfacing prostheses have achieved excellent clinical outcomes in long-term follow-up studies and are still in use although less commonly than in early 2000s. Use of alternative bearing surfaces has demonstrated excellent results in the short-term and a very critical long-term follow-up of these cases still will help establish their place in the hip arthroplasty world.

The great variability of acetabular dysplasia requires a personalized preoperative planning improved by 3D reconstruction and computer-assisted surgery.

A scoping review was performed on PubMed to search for articles with a method to characterize the acetabulum of native hips in a 3D reference frame. Ninety-eight articles out of 3815 reports were included. Three reproducible reference planes were identified: the anterior pelvic plane, the Standardization and Terminology Committee plane used in gait analysis, and the sacral base plane. The different methods for 3D analysis of the acetabulum were divided in four groups: global orientation, triplanar measurements, segmentation, and surface coverage of the femoral head. Two methods were found appropriate for reorientation osteotomies: the global orientation by a vector method and the triplanar method. The global orientation method relies on the creation of a vector from the acetabular rim, from the acetabular surface or from successive planes. Normalization of the global acetabular vector would correct acetabular dysplasia by a single alignment maneuver on an ideal vector. The triplanar method, based on angle measurements at the center of the femoral head, would involve correction of anomalies by considering axial, frontal, and sagittal planes.

DC is a multifactorial disease, having both genetic and environmental factors contributing to the causality of the disease.

The report is followed by a discussion on the molecular pathways suggested to be associated with DC and a summary of the genetic variants in the exonic regions found in DC and their connections with the molecular pathways. A total of nine variants were reported originating from six genes comprising three pathways. Most variants reported are involved in the Wnt signalling pathway.
