Open reduction and internal fixation offers lower hip‐related complications compared to stem revision in Vancouver B2 fractures around cemented polished tapered femoral stems

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose Periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) are increasing, particularly Vancouver B2 fractures around cemented polished tapered femoral stems. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) are more frequently used in

Antibacterial surface modification of titanium implants in orthopaedics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The use of biomaterials in orthopaedics for joint replacement, fracture healing and bone regeneration is a rapidly expanding field. Infection of these biomaterials is a major healthcare burden, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Furthermore,

Comparative diagnostic accuracy of next‐generation sequencing in different specimen types for periprosthetic joint infection: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis suggests that NGS of sonicate fluid demonstrates higher sensitivity compared to NGS of synovial fluid or periprosthetic tissue, while maintaining strong specificity, making it valuable for detecting infection. Periprosthetic tissue NGS demonstrated exceptional specificity and acceptable sensitivity, making it valuable for confirming ...

Denosumab might prevent periprosthetic bone loss after total hip and knee arthroplasties: a review

open access: yesArthroplasty, 2021
Total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty are extensively used for the treatment of the end-stage degenerative joint diseases. Currently, periprosthetic bone loss is still the major cause of aseptic loosening, resulting in implant failures ...

Infection in prosthetic material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Surgical site infection (SSI) occurs when a wound created as part of a surgical procedure becomes infected. SSI is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections and occurs in approximately 5% of patients undergoing a surgical procedure. SSI may

Knee arthroplasty failure is associated with significant systemic multimetal exposure

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study investigated whether patients scheduled for revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are systemically exposed to arthroplasty metals, and whether systemic metal levels in these patients differ depending on the implants' levels of constraint.

Imageless and image‐based robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty achieve equivalent radiographic accuracy: A randomised controlled trial

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty systems offer both image‐based and imageless workflows, but their comparative accuracy remains unclear. The robotic surgical assistant (ROSA) system uniquely provides both approaches within a single platform.

Unrestricted kinematic alignment on the sagittal plane: Posterior tibial slope and combined flexion do not have boundaries to respect in terms of short‐term clinical outcomes and safety

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is gaining traction as a surgical philosophy. True personalization, however, must encompass not only the coronal plane but also the sagittal and axial planes. This study evaluates influence of the Tibial Slope (PTS) and combined flexion (CF) on outcomes in TKA performed using ...

Occult periprosthetic femoral fractures occur frequently during a long, trapezoidal, double-tapered cementless femoral stem fixation in primary THA.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical consequences of occult intra-operative periprosthetic femoral fractures in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Between 2012 and 2017, a total of 113 primary THAs were enrolled.
