Periprosthetic Patellar Fractures
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2007The patella is the largest sesamoid bone in the skeleton. Located within an expansion of the quadriceps tendon, the patella allows an increased functional lever arm of the quadriceps and enhances the mechanical advantage of the extensor mechanism of the knee.

Journal of Urology, 1987
A retrospective review of all patients undergoing implantation of a penile prosthesis or an artificial urinary sphincter was done. A total of 15 infections occurred in 556 prosthesis recipients, for an infection rate of 2.7 per cent. More than 50 per cent of the infections were caused by staphylococcal organisms.

A periprosthetic fracture is a fracture around or in proximity of a prosthetic implant. As more and more prostheses are implanted, the incidence of periprosthetic fractures also increases. Several risk factors have been outlined, some due to the patient, and some due to the implant itself.

Periprosthetic joint infection
The Lancet, 2016Periprosthetic joint infections are a devastating complication after arthroplasty and are associated with substantial patient morbidity. More than 25% of revisions are attributed to these infections, which are expected to increase. The increased prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and other comorbidities are some of the reasons for this increase ...

Periprosthetic Femoral Fractures
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1994Fracture of the femoral shaft around a hip prosthesis presents the simultaneous problems of prosthetic stability and femoral- fracture management. Treatment options include nonoperative stabilization (traction) and operative stabilization by means of intramedullary fixation, extramedullary fixation, or proximal femoral prosthetic replacement.

DIAGNOSIS OF PERIPROSTHETIC INFECTION
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2006Periprosthetic infections are rare, but there is evidence to suggest that their frequency may be underestimated. No single laboratory test has perfect sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing infection. Most tests have better specificity when they are performed for patients in whom infection is suspected clinically rather than when they are used as ...

Periprosthetic femoral fractures
British Journal of Hospital MedicineThe incidence of periprosthetic femoral fractures is rising in the UK, because of an ageing population and an increasing number of hip arthroplasty operations being performed. They can occur intra- or postoperatively, and usually follow low energy trauma. They present with pain, swelling over the thigh, and an inability to weight bear.
