Efficacy of Single-stage Revision with Aggressive Debridement Using Intra-articular Antibiotics in the Treatment of Infected Joint Prosthesis [PDF]
Infectious Diseases, 2015 Prosthetic joint infections (PJI) of the hip and knee are uncommon, but result in significant morbidity and mortality when they do occur. Current management consists of a combination of either single- or two-stage exchange of the prosthesis and/or ...

Dynamic Analysis of a Human Ankle Joint Prosthesis
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 This research addresses a human ankle joint prosthesis design based on a cam mechanism. Thus, a dynamic analysis of the entire human lower limb was performed in order to obtain the input data for numerical simulations of an ankle joint prosthesis.

New comprehensive procedure for custom‐made total ankle replacements: Medical imaging, joint modeling, prosthesis design, and 3D printing [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 2018 Many failures in total joint replacement are associated to prosthesis‐to‐bone mismatch. With recent additive‐manufacturing, that is, 3D‐printing, custom‐made prosthesis can be created by laser‐melting metal powders layer‐by‐layer.

Biomechanical Impacts of Toe Joint With Transfemoral Amputee Using a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis
Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2022 Transfemoral amputees are currently forced to utilize energetically passive prostheses that provide little to no propulsive work. Among the several joints and muscles required for healthy walking, the ones most vital for push-off assistance include the ...
