Increased radiolucency on conventional radiographs around tibial components does not imply more load‐induced displacement of a total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), radiolucent lines on routine conventional radiographs are commonly interpreted as impaired tibial component fixation, although their relation to implant motion remains unclear. This necessitates a comparison with measured component displacement.

Periprosthetic acetabular fractures

open access: yesOrthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research
Periprosthetic acetabular fractures are a major challenge in orthopedics. Proper recognition of these complex cases helps to identify and treat patients with different presentations. These fractures can occur intraoperatively and be treated immediately, or they can occur postoperatively, following trauma or in the context of chronic low bone quality or

Patients with obesity have a higher risk of periprosthetic joint infection and more frequent polymicrobial infections after knee arthroplasty: A nationwide register‐based study from Denmark

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the 2‐year incidence of (1) revision due to periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and (2) all‐cause revision after primary knee arthroplasty (KA) in patients with/without obesity and to compare the microbial profiles in early (≤ 90 days) and late (91–730 days) PJI.

Conservative treatment of periprosthetic femur fractures around metaphyseal short stems – A feasible option?

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports, 2017
Periprosthetic femoral fractures are rare but significant events following total hip replacement. Metaphyseal short stems have recently been popularized as a bone preserving alternative to conventional uncemented total hip replacement.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Periprosthetic osteolysis: a narrative review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Periprosthetic osteolysis is still one of the major limitations of prosthetic joints longevity. The process of this "silent" iatrogenic disease involves both mechanical and biological factors that initiate a local immune response in the periprosthetic ...

Revision Risk Following Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Cohort Study From the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most successful orthopaedic procedures and provides good functional outcomes in both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) patients. However, RA patients face higher risks of adverse post‐operative outcomes.

Periprosthetic Joint Infection: The Incidence, Timing, and Predisposing Factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Periprosthetic joint infection is one of the most challenging complications of joint arthroplasty. We identified current risk factors of periprosthetic joint infection after modern joint arthroplasty, and determined the incidence and timing of ...
