Abstract

Background

To retrospectively characterize the clinical characteristics and efficacy of total hip arthroplasty and the important factors needing attention in hypophosphatemic osteomalacia (HO) patients with hip involvement.

Patients and methods

We performed a review of seven patients (two women and five men) referred to our clinic with a final diagnosis of HO who received total hip arthroplasty between 2010 and 2018. Five patients (Group 1) received proper medical management with or without aetiologic therapy, while the other two patients (Group 2) did not receive due to misdiagnosis. The mean follow-up duration was 5.1 ± 2.0 years.

Results

The patients in Group 1 had significant relief of pain and improved laboratory results. The mean Harris Hip Score of Group 1 increased from 44.2 ± 6.0 to 94.0 ± 3.0, and the mean VAS score decreased from 8.8 ± 0.4 to 1.8 ± 0.7. However, the progressive extensive pain score in Group 2 had no obvious improvement, with the Harris Hip Score increasing from 45.5 ± 0.5 to 60 ± 28.0 and the VAS score decreasing from 9.0 ± 1.0 to 6.5 ± 2.5.

Conclusion

THA appears to be an effective method for hip arthritis or joint deformities resulting from hypophosphatemic osteomalacia. A satisfactory outcome of the surgery depends on the early etiological identification, the treatment of hypophosphatemia, a careful operation, and the operative strategies, as well as proper medical treatment.
