The effect of triclosan coated sutures on rate of Surgical Site Infection after hip and knee replacement : a protocol for a double-blind randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2014
Background: 187,000 hip and knee joint replacements are performed every year in the National Health Service (NHS). One of the commonest complications is surgical site infection (SSI), and this represents a significant burden in terms of patient ...

Unintentional Valgus Malalignment in Mechanically Aligned Total Knee Arthroplasty Leads to Higher Prosthetic Failure Rates. A National Registry Survivorship Analysis of Coronal, Sagittal and Rotational Alignment Using Computed Tomography

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Objective: Unlike coronal malalignment, little is known about whether sagittal and rotational malalignment increases failure rates in mechanically aligned (MA) total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Sonoelastography of the knee joint

Clinical Anatomy, 2018
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is generally the preferred method for assessing lesions of the knee cartilage and subchondral bone. There have been a few cartilage imaging studies using real‐time elastosonography (RTE), which has increased in importance and range of use in recent years.

Whole body kinematics and knee moments that occur during an overhead catch and landing task in sport

, 2012
Background: Athletes suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury tend to exhibit similar body postures that in sidestep cutting are associated with increased knee moments. This relationship, however, has not been investigated in landing.
