Femoral stem wear in cemented total hip replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The great success of cemented total hip replacement to treat patients with end-stage osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis has been well documented. However, its long-term survivorship has been compromised by progressive development of aseptic loosening, and ...

Evaluation of fretting wear on the femoral stem surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Fretting wear on polished femoral stems has been well documented in clinical reports, but in vitro simulation to replicate this wear has seldom been attempted and only limited success has been achieved.

Knotted Femoral Nerve Catheter [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2004
We describe a case of knotting of a femoral nerve catheter which prevented removal by traction after knee replacement surgery. In this context, early surgical removal should be performed as bacterial colonization of femoral catheters is common. Radiological imaging of the catheter may assist decision-making about whether to persist with traction and ...

Application of Supercharge End-to-Side (SETS) Obturator to Femoral Nerve Transfer in Electrical Injury-Induced Neuropathy to Improve Knee Extension

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery, 2022
Femoral nerve injuries are devastating injuries that lead to paralysis of the quadriceps muscles, weakening knee extension to prohibit ambulation. We report a devastating case of electrical injury-induced femoral neuropathy, where no apparent site of ...

Combined femoral and sciatic nerve blockade for lower limb surgeries: ultrasound guidance versus nerve stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesZagazig University Medical Journal, 2020
Objective: To compare between nerve stimulator guided and ultrasound guided femoral-sciatic nerve block, to find out the method of best outcome and least side effects.Patients & Methods: The study was performed in Zagazig University Hospital (ZUH ...

Emergency physician-performed ultrasound-guided nerve blocks in proximal femoral fractures provide safe and effective pain relief: a prospective observational study in The Netherlands

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2018
Background The treatment of acute pain in the emergency department is not always optimal. Peripheral nerve blocks using “blind” or nerve stimulator techniques have substantial disadvantages.

Femoral nerve palsy during Pavlik harness treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip is not an indication for harness abandonment

open access: yesJournal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2023
Objectives: The aim of this study was to report the incidence of femoral nerve palsy in developmental dysplasia of the hip children treated with Pavlik harness, to identify any possible associated risk factors, and to evaluate its outcome without any ...

The course of recovery of locomotor function over a 10‐week observation period in a rat model of femoral nerve resection and autograft repair

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Background A great extent of knowledge on peripheral nerve regeneration has been gathered using the rat sciatic nerve model. The femoral nerve model of the rat offers an interesting alternative, as it lacks disadvantageous features such as automutilation.

Peripheral nerve block (FLOS block) for intraoperative anesthesia in total knee arthroplasty: An observational study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research KLEU, 2021
Background: Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) are generally used to provide postoperative analgesia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and other lower extremity procedures; these blocks are used rarely for intraoperative anesthesia.

Femoral Nerve in Femoral Triangle: A Morphometric Study with Clinical Relevance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences University, 2020
Background: Femoral nerve is a nerve of choice for femoral nerve blockade. It enters the femoral triangle at the midinguinal point. However, this point of entry need not be the same always.
