Femoral Neck Fracture Fixation Failure: A Review and Stepwise Approach

open access: yesJournal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2020
Femoral neck fractures are challenging injuries to treat, as they commonly involve high-energy trauma mechanisms and displaced fracture patterns. Despite the effective treatment techniques and devices available to fix these fractures, the cases of ...

Diagnostic Performance of Ultrasound to Evaluate Mild Hip Osteoarthritis: Comparison With Radiography and MRI

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A moderate‐sized femoral neck osteophyte (white arrow) in US (A), anteroposterior CR (B), and MRI (C). Additional osteoarthritis‐related changes (arrowheads) are visible in CR and MR, but not in US. US and CR demonstrated similar moderate diagnostic capability to detect mild hip osteoarthritis and were associated with increased hip pain.

Radiation Dose and Risk in the Radiological Investigation of Suspected Non‐Accidental Injury (NAI)

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study is a retrospective analysis of 362 skeletal surveys performed over a 5‐year period for children under 5 years of age for suspected non‐accidental injury. We present effective dose data and the associated risks of radiation exposure for initial and follow‐up examinations.

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.

Corrosion in Modular Revision Hip Stem Tapers – A Retrieval Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In revision hip arthroplasty, modular stems enable intraoperative adjustment of the biomechanics of the hip to ensure a stable joint function even in complex anatomical cases. Modular stem junctions, however, carry the risk of junction degradation due to corrosive processes or even junction breakage.
