ARTHROPLASTY
Elevation of circulating HLA DR(+) CD8(+) T-cells and correlation with chromium and cobalt concentrations 6 years after metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
OE Journal. 2025;13(20):1 Acta Orthop. 2011 Feb;82(1):6-12. Epub 2010 Dec 2985 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) were randomized to receive either a metal-on-metal bearing or a metal-on-polyethylene bearing. The primary outcome was elevation of circulating HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cells and correlation with chromium and cobalt concentrations. Results indicated that metal-on-metal THA increased chromium and cobalt concentrations which resulted in a correlation with immunological reactions. This was associated with the increase in HLA DR+CD8+ T-cells and a decrease in B-cells.

مؤشر الهشاشة هو أداة تساعد في تفسير النتائج المهمة، وتوفر مقياسًا لقوة النتيجة. ويمثل مؤشر الهشاشة عدد الأحداث المتتالية التي يجب إضافتها إلى نتيجة ثنائية التفرع لجعل النتيجة غير مهمة. يمثل الرقم الصغير نتيجة أضعف ويمثل الرقم الكبير نتيجة أقوى.
لماذا كانت هناك حاجة لهذه الدراسة الآن؟
Elevated metal ion concentrations from metal-on-metal arthroplasties have been associated with immunological reactions. It is hypothesized that an increased concentration of metal ions causes changes in the lymphocyte sub-populations. This study examines the change in concentration of HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cells and the correlation with chromium and cobalt concentrations in patients undergoing metal-on-metal or metal-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasty (THA).
ما هو سؤال البحث الرئيسي؟
What are the outcomes in HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cell elevation and its correlation with chromium and cobalt concentrations in patients, 6 years after undergoing metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (THA) compared to metal-on-polyethylene THA?
ما هي النتائج المهمة؟
- Serum concentrations of chromium and cobalt were higher in patients who received the metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (THA) compared to patients who underwent metal-on-polyethylene THA when examined at follow-up. (Chromium: 1.05 vs. 0.36 ug/L; p<0.001; Cobalt: 0.86 vs. 0.24 ug/L; p<0.001)
- The metal-on-metal group had a higher percentage of HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cells. (10.6 vs. 6.7%; p=0.03) This had a positive correlation with cobalt and chromium concentrations in patient blood (Pearson's correlation coefficient for cobalt: 0.36, p=0.03; Chromium: 0.39, p=0.02).
- The metal-on-metal group had a lower percentage of B-cells.(9.3% compared to 12.9% in the metal-on-polyethylene group) (p=0.01)
- Comparable immunoglobulin concentrations and Harris hip scores were seen between the two groups. No radiographic signs of loosening, wear or periprosthetic osteolysis were seen with either group at follow-up.
- Both groups of patients had similar concentrations of immunoglobulins IgG (and subgroups 1-4), IgM, and IgA.
ما الذي يجب أن أتذكره أكثر؟
Metal-on-metal THA increases cobalt and chromium concentrations at 6-years and produces immunological alterations. There is also a positive correlation with HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cells and chromium and cobalt concentrations. Finally, the metal-on-metal group had a reduction in the percentage of B-cells.
كيف سيؤثر ذلك على رعاية مرضاي؟
There is still a lack of evidence that the increase in HLA DR+ CD8+ T-cells, associated with metal-on-metal THA, causes allergic reactions, aseptic loosening, or periprosthetic pseudotumors. Further studies with a larger population are required to examine these potential associations.
