Long-term Follow up of Van Nes Rotationplasty for Congenital Proximal Focal Femoral Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Van Nes rotationplasty may be used for patients with congenital proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD). The lower limb is rotated to use the ankle and foot as a functional knee joint within a prosthesis.

Patients with previous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction achieve equally good outcomes after total knee arthroplasty: A Swedish registry‐based study of 7755 patients

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may later require total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to osteoarthritis (OA). The impact of previous ACLR on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after TKA remains uncertain.

Effects of extended stance time on a powered knee prosthesis and gait symmetry on the lateral control of balance during walking in individuals with unilateral amputation

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Individuals with lower limb amputation commonly exhibit large gait asymmetries that are associated with secondary health issues. It has been shown that they are capable of attaining improved temporal and propulsive symmetry when walking with a

Friction in metal-on-metal total disc arthroplasty: effect of ball radius [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Total Disc Arthroplasty (TDA) can be used to replace a degenerated intervertebral disc in the spine. There are different designs of prosthetic discs, but one of the most common is a ball-and-socket combination.

Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

Enhancing Gait Symmetry via Intact Limb Kinematic Mapping Control of a Hip Disarticulation Prosthesis

open access: yesBiomimetics
Conventional hip disarticulation prostheses often require amputees to produce limited leg-lifting torque through exaggerated pelvic motion, resulting in complex control and pronounced gait abnormalities.
