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.

Measurement of the Femoral Head Diameter at Hemiarthroplasty of the Hip [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper is focusing on the measurement methods of the femoral head at the hip hemiarthroplasty surgery. The measurement result of 10 femoral head specimens using four different methods of Vernier calliper, ring gauge, CT scan and X-ray were compared ...

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.

Percolative Mechanism of Aging in Zirconia-Containing Ceramics for Medical Applications [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 15, Issue 6, March, 2003, Pages 507-511, 2018
Recently, several episodes of fracture of zirconia ceramic femoral heads of total hip prostheses have alarmed the medical and scientific community regarding aging problems in zirconia prostheses. Such fractures cause immediate local tissue reactions, which require urgent medical intervention to prevent further complications.

Which Osteotomy for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head and Which Patient for the Osteotomy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Transtrochanteric curved varus osteotomy (TCVO) and transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) are joint-preserving procedures for osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Apoptosis in the Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

open access: yesClinics in Orthopedic Surgery, 2010
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is classified into idiopathic and secondary forms. A number of etiological factors in the development of osteonecrosis have been suggested but the biological mechanisms are still unclear. Recently, some reports suggested that the apoptosis is closely related to osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Research progress in the pathogenesis of hormone-induced femoral head necrosis based on microvessels: a systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Hormonal necrosis of the femoral head is caused by long-term use of glucocorticoids and other causes of abnormal bone metabolism, lipid metabolism imbalance and blood microcirculation disorders in the femoral head, resulting in bone trabecular fracture ...

Case report: Directional infusion of peripheral blood stem cells into the necrotic zone in femoral heads through the medial circumflex femoral artery: A tracing study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore whether peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) infused through the medial circumflex femoral artery to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) could migrate into the necrotic area of femoral head.MethodsWe ...
