In Vivo Evaluation of Hemiarthroplasty Bearing Materials Using Animal Models: A Scoping Review (Part II)

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemiarthroplasty is commonly used to treat damage localized to one side of a synovial joint, maximally preserving the patient's opposing healthy bone and cartilage; however, challenges remain due to accelerated wear of the cartilage articulating with the implant surface. This scoping review summarized investigations of hemiarthroplasty bearing

Frontiers in the Management of Orthopaedic Periprosthetic Joint Infection

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA), one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide. Management of acute PJI commonly involves debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR), though failure rates remain high due to antibiotic‐tolerant biofilms. Chronic

Various surgical techniques result in different outcomes for full extensor mechanism ruptures following total knee replacement: A systematic review by the European Knee Associates (ESSKA‐EKA)

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Extensor mechanism (EM) ruptures after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are rare but lead to substantial functional impairment and morbidity. Treatment remains challenging due to the diversity of surgical techniques and the limited number of comparative studies.
