Bisphosphonate use in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty reduces overall and aseptic revisions and periprosthetic bone mineral density loss: A systematic review from the FP‐UCBM Knee Study Group

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Bisphosphonates (BPs), widely used for osteoporosis management, have garnered attention in the context of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for their potential to preserve periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) and mitigate risks such as aseptic loosening, periprosthetic fractures, and implant failure. This study systematically reviewed

Identification of periprosthetic joint infection after total hip arthroplasty

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2015
Although total hip arthroplasty (THA) is accepted as one of the most successful surgical procedures in orthopaedic surgery, periprosthetic joint infection after THA continues to be one of the most devastating complications. However, accurate preoperative

The infected hip: A treatment algorithm [PDF]

, 2011
The management of periprosthetic joint infection following total joint arthroplasty is presently a major challenge to orthopedic surgeons. Despite various treatment options available, the two-stage revision procedure is most often chosen in North ...

Lower synovial leucocyte count and polymorphonuclear percentage reliably differentiate periprosthetic joint infection after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to determine diagnostic thresholds for synovial fluid leucocyte count and polymorphonuclear (PMN) percentage to identify the diagnosis periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients with failed unicompartmental knee arthroplasties (UKAs).

Detection of bacteria with molecular methods in prosthetic joint infection: sonication fluid better than periprosthetic tissue

Acta Orthopaedica, 2016
Background and purpose — The correct diagnosis of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) can be difficult because bacteria form a biofilm on the surface of the implant.

Periprosthetic Knee Infection: Ten Strategies That Work. [PDF]

, 2013
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most serious complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The demand for TKA is rapidly increasing, resulting in a subsequent increase in infections involving knee prosthesis.

Comparison between simulation results and DEXA investigation of the bone remodelling after implanting a cementless long stem hip prosthesis [PDF]

, 2013
Bone remodelling around a femoral prosthesis is one of the main reasons of aseptic loosening of the implant’s stem. The difference in stiffness between the bone tissue and the prosthesis leads to unload the periprosthetic bone and thus to decrease the ...

Patient-Related Risk Factors for Periprosthetic Joint Infection after Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

PLoS ONE, 2016
Background Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are dreaded complications of total joint arthroplasties. The risk of developing PJIs is likely to be influenced by several patient factors such as sociodemographic characteristics, body mass index (BMI ...

Impact of simultaneous exposure to RF and gradient electromagnetic fields on implant MR safety labeling

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether heating contributions produced by radiofrequency (RF) and gradient fields superpose sufficiently at the worst‐case locations to justify their simultaneous consideration in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) implant safety labeling.
