Ti6Al4V‐Bioglass‐Copper Composites for Load‐Bearing Implants

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We have designed and manufactured a novel Ti64‐based composite by adding 45S5 bioglass (BG) and copper (Cu). Adding BG on titanium improves wear resistance and biocompatibility, whereas Cu addition improves mechanical strength while providing inherent lifelong bacterial resistance.

Total Ankle Replacement Arthroplasty

Journal of Korean Foot and Ankle Society, 2015
Total ankle replacement has been performed for treatment of end stage arthritis of the ankle, hopefully being an alternative to ankle arthrodesis. However, due to its high failure rates, earlier versions of ankle replacements were not regarded as successful procedures.

Primary hip and knee arthroplasty at district level is safe and may reduce the burden on tertiary care in a low-income setting

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Arthroplasty procedures in low-income countries are mostly performed at tertiary centers, with waiting lists exceeding 12 to 24 months. Recently, this is further exacerbated by the impact of the Covid Pandemic on elective surgeries.

Does choice of bearings influence the survival of cementless total hip arthroplasty in patients aged 20–55 years? Comparison of 21,594 patients reported to the Nordic Arthroplasty Register Association dataset 2005–2017

Acta Orthopaedica, 2023
Background and purpose: The bearings with the best survivorship for young patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA) should be identified. We compared hazard ratios (HR) of revision of primary stemmed cementless THAs with metal-on-metal (MoM), ceramic ...
