Background: The frequency of occurrence of infectious complications after hip arthroplasty in HIV-infected patients is extremely high. Revision arthroplasty for periprosthetic infection is the leader (64%) among the causes of early revision interventions.

1. Two hundred and eleven cases of arthroplasty of the hip have been studied in an attempt to establish the causes of success and failure by comparing the excellent, good and bad results. 2. The findings suggest that the result of an arthroplasty depends largely upon four factors: the surgical approach to the hip joint, the acetabular roof, the ...

Background and purpose — The outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in younger patients is suggested to be inferior compared with the general THA population. There is a lack of studies with long-term follow up for very young patients.

Background and purpose — Several studies have reported on the influence of various factors on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after total hip arthroplasty (THA), but very few have focused on the experience of the surgeon. We investigated any association

Radiocapitellar arthroplasty [PDF]
This article sets out the evidence demonstrating that the clinical need for a prosthetic arthroplasty designed specifically for the radiocapitellar joint has been underestimated. The prevalence of radiocapitellar degenerative change requiring treatment is discussed and the relationship between 'isolated' radiocapitellar joint arthritis and more ...

Comorbidity does not predict long-term mortality after total hip arthroplasty
Background and purpose — In-hospital death following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is related to comorbidity. The long-term effect of comorbidity on all-cause mortality is, however, unknown for this group of patients and it was investigated in this study.

A differential approach to surgical treatment of post-traumatic injuries of the rotator cuff
Background. Retracted ruptures of the rotator cuff are difficult to reconstruct. A large number of repeated ruptures due to the inability of standard refixation to restore the integrity of the rotators, emphasize the importance of finding alternative ...

The potential utility of synovial C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and presepsin in diagnostics of periprosthetic joint infection [PDF]
Background. Diagnostics of infectious complications in joint replacement surgery remains a significant challenge, particularly when microbiological analysis of biological material fails to reveal pathogen growth.
