Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease and the risk of injuries requiring hospitalization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background and purpose Previous studies have suggested that Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is associated with repetitive trauma, coagulation problems and anatomical abnormalities of the blood supply to the femoral head. The hypothesis that repetitive

Do ceramic femoral heads reduce taper fretting corrosion in hip arthroplasty? A retrieval study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Previous studies regarding modular head-neck taper corrosion were largely based on cobalt chrome (CoCr) alloy femoral heads. Less is known about head-neck taper corrosion with ceramic femoral heads.

Treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head using autologous cultured osteoblasts: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a progressive disease that leads to femoral head collapse and osteoarthritis. Our goal in treating osteonecrosis is to preserve, not to replace, the femoral head.

Efficacy of artificial femoral head replacement for femoral head avascular necrosis

open access: yesMedicine, 2019
Abstract Background: Femoral head avascular necrosis (FHAN) is one of the most common progressive orthopedic disorders. Previous studies have reported that artificial femoral head replacement (AFHR) can effectively treat patients with FHAN. However, no systematic review has investigated the efficacy of AFHR for FHAN. This study

Total hip replacement for the treatment of end stage arthritis of the hip : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Evolvements in the design, fixation methods, size, and bearing surface of implants for total hip replacement (THR) have led to a variety of options for healthcare professionals to consider.

Stresses in cement mantles of hip replacements: effect of femoral implant sizes, body mass index and bone quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The effects of femoral prosthetic heads of diameters 22 and 28 mm were investigated on the stability of reconstructed hemi-pelves with cement mantles of thicknesses 1-4 mm and different bone qualities.

Factors associated with dislocation after total hip arthroplasties performed for nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a multicenter cohort study of 5,983 hips

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica
Background and purpose: Nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) patients are at a higher dislocation risk after primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs) than osteoarthrosis patients.

Transient elastohydrodynamic lubrication analysis of a novel metal-on-metal hip prosthesis with a non-spherical femoral bearing surface

open access: yes, 2011
Effective lubrication performance of metal-on-metal hip implants only requires optimum conformity within the main loaded area, while it is advantageous to increase the clearance in the equatorial region.
