Massive Femoral Osteolysis Secondary to Loosening of a Cemented Roughened Long Stem: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2014
The surface finish of a femoral stem plays an important role in the longevity of cemented total hip arthroplasty. In efforts to decrease the rate of aseptic loosening, some prostheses have been designed to have a roughened surface that enhances bonding ...

Data-Mined Continuous Hip-Knee Coordination Mapping With Motion Lag for Lower-Limb Prosthesis Control

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Trajectory planning of the knee joint plays an essential role in controlling the lower limb prosthesis. Nowadays, the idea of mapping the trajectory of the healthy limb to the motion trajectory of the prosthetic joint has begun to emerge.

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 1: the influence of the prosthesis size and positioning on the remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck

open access: yes, 2010
Hip resurfacing is an established treatment for osteoarthritis in young active patients. Failure modes include femoral neck fracture and prosthesis loosening, which may be associated with medium-term bone adaptation, including femoral neck narrowing and ...

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Severe osteolysis and periprosthetic femoral fracture 45 years after acrylic hemiarthroplasty of the hip: a case report

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Hip arthroplasty using acrylic prosthesis was once conducted; however, it has now been abandoned because of early breakages and wear of material.

Novel functionalized Ti6Al4V scaffold for preventing infection and promoting rapid osseointegration

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the most common and radical treatment for end-stage hip disease. Prosthesis loosening and periprosthetic infection are the most serious complications after THA, which may lead to prosthetic dysfunction.

Establishing a range of motion boundary for total hip arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Range of motion of the hip joint is a major contributor to dislocation post total hip replacement. Impingement is often treated as a surrogate for dislocation and occurs – prosthetically – when the neck of the femoral component contacts with the rim of ...

A NEW PROSTHESIS FOR DISARTICULATION AT THE HIP [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1968
1. A prosthesis which is useful in unilateral disarticulations of the hip and highly advantageous in cases of bilateral disarticulation is described. 2. It makes use of the principle of a swing door and makes walking possible with the assistance of elbow crutches in cases of bilateral hip disarticulation and amelia.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist Use in Obese Patients Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Revision and Retears After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the impact of preoperative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) use on medical complications, emergency department use, and orthopaedic complications in obese patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods Obese patients (defined by relevant ICD‐10 codes and confirmed by body mass index measurements ...
