Relationship Between Lumbar Spine Hounsfield Unit Values and Bone Mineral Density in Patients With Osteoarthritis Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty
Background
Hip osteoarthritis (OA) and osteoporosis often coexist, complicating bone mineral density (BMD) assessment because of degenerative changes. We aimed to examine the utility of lumbar spine Hounsfield unit (HU) values in patients with hip OA undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods
This study included patients with hip OA who underwent primary THA and preoperative BMD measurements with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. BMD was measured in the total hip (TH), femoral neck, lumbar spine (L2-L4), and distal radius. HU values at L4 and L5 were evaluated using preoperative computed tomography of the hip joints for 3-dimensional preoperative planning. To assess the effect of arthritis and deformity, we compared the hips of those with and without OA. Correlation coefficients were used to assess the relationship between the HU values and T-scores.
Results
Overall, 218 hips were analyzed. Moderate correlations were found between lumbar HU values and T-scores at all measurement sites, with the strongest correlations between L5 HU values and T-scores of the nonarthritic TH (rho = 0.64, P < .01). Receiver operating characteristic analysis of nonarthritic hips yielded area under the curves of 0.76 for L4 and 0.77 for L5 (optimal cut-off values: 96.6 HU and 92.6 HU, respectively). In osteoarthritic hips, area under the curve values were 0.82 for L4 and 0.83 for L5 (cut-off values: 118.9 HU and 100.8 HU, respectively).
Conclusions
Lumbar HU values moderately correlated with BMD at all measurement sites, especially at the TH. This may serve as a useful screening tool for osteoporosis before THA in patients with hip OA.
期刊介绍:
Arthroplasty Today is a companion journal to the Journal of Arthroplasty. The journal Arthroplasty Today brings together the clinical and scientific foundations for joint replacement of the hip and knee in an open-access, online format. Arthroplasty Today solicits manuscripts of the highest quality from all areas of scientific endeavor that relate to joint replacement or the treatment of its complications, including those dealing with patient outcomes, economic and policy issues, prosthetic design, biomechanics, biomaterials, and biologic response to arthroplasty. The journal focuses on case reports. It is the purpose of Arthroplasty Today to present material to practicing orthopaedic surgeons that will keep them abreast of developments in the field, prove useful in the care of patients, and aid in understanding the scientific foundation of this subspecialty area of joint replacement. The international members of the Editorial Board provide a worldwide perspective for the journal''s area of interest. Their participation ensures that each issue of Arthroplasty Today provides the reader with timely, peer-reviewed articles of the highest quality.
