Method for Characterization of Material Loss from Modular Head-Stem Taper Surfaces of Hip Replacement Devices [PDF]

, 2015
Assessment of the head-stem taper junction requires the estimation of material loss from the taper surfaces of both femoral head and stem. This paper describes a method for the measurement and analysis of material loss from the modular taper junction of ...

Femoral component rotational alignment in robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty with functional knee positioning varies across knee phenotypes without affecting clinical outcomes

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This retrospective, observational study aimed to investigate the distribution of femoral component rotational alignment among different knee phenotypes and assess the clinical relevance of femoral component rotation variability in patients undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA‐TKA) performed with ...

A Retrospective Study on the Feasibility of Using Low-burden Patient-reported Pain Scores to Track Recovery and Outcomes After Total Joint Replacement

Arthroplasty Today
Background: Patients undergo total joint arthroplasty to improve function and resolve pain. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are often sought to determine the success of total joint arthroplasty but are time-consuming and patient response rates ...

Total Ankle Arthroplasty: A Brief Review

Journal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2012
Ankle fusion has long been the standard of treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis, and a successful arthroplasty has been a long sought alternative. It is a motion sparing procedure and may greatly reduce the potential for adjacent level degeneration as

Unrestricted kinematic alignment offers limited functional benefit over mechanical alignment in medial pivot total knee arthroplasty: A randomized controlled trial using conventional instrumentation

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to compare clinical outcomes between kinematic alignment (KA) and mechanical alignment (MA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using a medial‐pivot (MP) prosthesis and conventional instrumentation.

Mid‐term survival and physiological joint angles after double level osteotomy of severe varus osteoarthritis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Double‐level osteotomy (DLO) is a joint‐preserving technique for the treatment of symptomatic varus knee osteoarthritis (OA) in cases of femoral and tibial combined deformity. The study aimed to investigate the mid‐term survival rate (>5 years) and restoration of postoperative joint angles.
