COMPLICATIONS IN REPLACEMENT ARTHROPLASTY OF THE HIP

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1954
A total of fifty-three complications occurred in twenty-three patients. Different complications were encountered which produced varying degrees of disability. It is appropriate to quote from the conclusions drawn by Judet and Judet3 from their recent report of 400 patients: "Some fatalities and a proportion of bad or poor results make this operation ...

Arthroplasty with and Without Replacement

2017
Hallux valgus and hallux rigidus deformities result in malalignment of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint that can cause joint cartilage damage and painful arthritis over time. When conservative treatment options or joint salvage procedures fail to relieve symptoms, joint destructive surgery should be considered.

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1973

The Wagner resurfacing arthroplasty was designed to provide a more conservative means of treatment for patients with debilitating hip disease, while at the same time providing functional results similar to those of conventional total hip arthroplasty. The Wagner procedure is conservative on the femoral side, as it is successful in preserving the head ...

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1978
The principle of hip joint resurfacing is replacement of diseased joint surfaces and simultaneous restoration of the normal anatomy and biomechanical function to the maximal degree possible. This concept offers several theoretical advantages over conventional total hip joint replacement and the clinical results in this series of 426 cases appears to ...

GLENOID REPLACEMENT IN TOTAL SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1998
The outcome of total shoulder arthroplasty is largely based on the quality of glenoid component fixation, which, in turn, is related to the amount and quality of bone stock, glenohumeral stability, and rotator cuff function. This article discusses the anatomic and pathologic indications for glenoid replacement, surgical techniques, and results.
