An extendable modular endoprosthetic system for bone tumour management in the leg [PDF]
, 1990 A modular endoprosthetic system has been developed at the Groningen University Hospital and the University of Twente. The system can bridge a defect resulting from the resection of a malignant bone tumour which has developed around the knee joint of a ...

Powered Prosthesis Locomotion on Varying Terrains: Model-Dependent Control with Real-Time Force Sensing [PDF]
RA-L 7(2):5151-5158, 2022, 2021 Lower-limb prosthesis wearers are more prone to falling than non-amputees. Powered prostheses can reduce this instability of passive prostheses. While shown to be more stable in practice, powered prostheses generally use model-independent control methods that lack formal guarantees of stability and rely on heuristic tuning.

Influence of Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm on the mechanical strength of soft tissue allograft
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 466-472, February 2023., 2023 Abstract We sought to determine the impact of bacterial inoculation and length of exposure on the mechanical integrity of soft tissue tendon grafts. Cultures of Staphylococcus epidermidis were inoculated on human tibialis posterior cadaveric tendon to grow biofilms. A low inoculum in 10% growth medium was incubated for 30 min to replicate conditions of

The use of the constrained prosthesis in the difficult primary knee arthroplasty [PDF]
The Moldovan Medical Journal, 2021 Background: The constrained knee prosthesis has the basic indication in revision arthroplasty, but the latest literature reveals that it takes place also in primary total knee arthroplasty in cases of knee osteoarthritis associated with major ...
