Internal fixation compared with total hip replacement for displaced femoral neck fractures: a minimum fifteen-year follow-up study of a previously reported randomized trial.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2014
BACKGROUND Prospective randomized studies comparing internal fixation and a cemented hip replacement in the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures have shown favorable short-term results for prosthetic replacement.

Is the length of the femoral component important in primary total hip replacement?

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2014
Many different lengths of stem are available for use in primary total hip replacement, and the morphology of the proximal femur varies greatly. The more recently developed shortened stems provide a distribution of stress which closely mimics that of the ...

What’s New in Hip Replacement

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2015
Over the past year, there have been many changes in hip arthroplasty. Some of the new information further solidifies practices such as the use of tranexamic acid for blood conservation and the detection of infection through alpha defensins, and other studies have enhanced our knowledge of surgical approaches and the modes of failure of implants ...

The current state of bearing surfaces in total hip replacement.

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2014
We reviewed the literature on the currently available choices of bearing surface in total hip replacement (THR). We present a detailed description of the properties of articulating surfaces review the understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of ...

Surface Replacement of the Hip

HIP International, 2014
Attempts to resurface the hip joint date back to the 1930s. Throughout the last century many designs failed due to defective materials or fixation (or a combination). The metal-on-metal designs pioneered at the end of the century appeared to herald a new era, until difficulties associated with adverse reactions to metal debris were identified ...

Hip Replacement in the Athlete

2016
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) was originally designed to alleviate pain and dysfunction in the elderly who live a relatively sedentary life. In more recent years, younger patients with higher life expectancy as well as a greater functional expectancy are presenting for THA. A return to athletic activity has now become a relative indicator for THA.

Ceramics in Total Hip Replacement

Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research, 2005
Alumina-on-alumina total hip arthroplasty has been used for 32 years in Europe. The theoretical advantages of this combination are represented by its remarkable sliding characteristics, its very low wear debris generation, and its improved fracture toughness.

Hip replacements

2008
: The Charnley low frictional torque arthroplasty (LFA) has now reached 45 years of continuous clinical success. Pain relief and excellent range of movements have been achieved and maintained over the follow-up time, but consumer demands for new products have stimulated the introduction of new materials and methods.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of the topical administration of tranexamic acid in total hip and knee replacement.

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2014
Intravenous tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in reducing blood loss and the need for transfusion after joint replacement. Recently, there has been interest in applying it topically before the closure of surgical wounds.

Topical (intra-articular) tranexamic acid reduces blood loss and transfusion rates following total hip replacement: a randomized controlled trial (TRANX-H).

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2013
BACKGROUND Approximately one-third of patients undergoing total hip replacement surgery require one to three units of blood postoperatively. Tranexamic acid is a synthetic antifibrinolytic agent that has been successfully used intravenously to control ...
