Trends of mechanical consequences and modeling of a fibrous membrane around femoral hip prostheses [PDF]

, 1990
In the present study, the effects of a fibrous membrane between cement and bone in a femoral total hip replacement were investigated. The study involved the problem of modeling this fibrous membrane in finite-element analyses, and its global consequences

Fulminant thrombosis of mechanical mitral valve prosthesis [PDF]

Heart, 2001
In patients with prosthetic heart valves non-cardiac surgery may require temporary discontinuation of oral anticoagulation. Although the risk of valve related thromboembolic complications may generally be only slightly increased during the short perioperative period, in the presence of certain risk factors, replacement of oral anticoagulation with ...

Development of Mechanism for Finger Prosthesis [PDF]

Acta Mechanica Slovaca, 2020
Nowadays prosthetic fingers provide not only a cosmetic solution to the problem, but mainly they provide function. 3D printing is an ideal technology for the manufacturing of low-cost prostheses, especially the upper limb prosthetics. The advantages offered by this technology make it possible to increase the level of creativity, personalization and at ...

State-of-art review of current malleable penile prosthesis devices in the commercial market

Therapeutic Advances in Urology, 2023
The malleable penile implant is often considered an inferior device to the three-piece inflatable penile prosthesis implant. Nonetheless, the malleable prosthesis has its unique advantages such as lower cost, easier to perform and fewer mechanical ...

Long-Term Outcomes Stratified by Age in Patients with a Mechanical versus Biological Mitral Valve Replacement

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Objectives: Balancing anticoagulation and reoperation risks determines prostheses choice (mechanical/biological) for mitral valve replacement. We aimed to re-evaluate the outcomes after biological versus mechanical mitral valve replacement.

Shoulder Prosthesis Mechanics [PDF]

The Journal of the Korean Shoulder and Elbow Society, 2010
Purpose: The goal of prosthetic replacement of the shoulder is the restoration of the normal anatomy of the joint. Materials and Methods: The physician should review the variations in normal anatomy because it does vary widely and the placement of the prosthetic needs to be modified to accommodate the variations. Results and Conclusion: Several factors

Amplatzer occlusion of paravalvular leak of mitral mechanical prosthesis following a reoperation for thrombosed mitral mechanical prosthesis [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2008
We describe a case of a 46-year-old woman with dehiscence and paravalvular leak of a second-time replaced mitral mechanical prosthesis, successfully treated with Amplatzer occlusion of the paravalvular leak, thus avoiding a second reoperation and improving the patient's symptoms.

Mechanical valve prosthesis in pregnant patients [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2020
Introduction Pregnancy-induced hypercoagulable states present an anticoagulation management challenge in patients with mechanical prosthetic valves (PHV). In pregnant patients a thrombosed mechanical PHV presents a high risk of morbidity and mortality for both mother and fetus.

Prosthetic rehabilitation of resected orbit in a case of mucormycosis

The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2018
The design of orbital prosthesis to rehabilitate patients with orbital exenteration depends on the underlying clinical condition, material chosen for prosthesis, method of retention of the prosthesis, and and preference of the patient.
