Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical strength of femurs before an iatrogenic periprosthetic fracture vs after an initial fracture with supporting cerclage fixation during cementless total hip arthroplasty.

Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

Season of the year influences infection rates following total hip arthroplasty [PDF]
To research the influence of season of the year on periprosthetic joint infections. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of the entire Medicare files from 2005 to 2014. Seasons were classified as spring, summer, fall or winter. Regional variations

Disassembly of the inner head of a bipolar hip prosthesis
We report an extremely rare case of inner head displacement from the stem of a bipolar hip prosthesis (BHP). An 88-year-old woman underwent BHP implantation for right femoral neck fracture.

Background: Posterior dislocations of the shoulder are rare, however more common in seizures. The uncoordinated flexing of muscles which facilitate internal rotation and adduction can cause simple unilateral subluxation or even severe bilateral fracture ...

The periprosthetic fracture of the acetabulum is a rare injury, and its management is only sporadically reported in the literature. A few case reports are available which mainly focus on periprosthetic acetabular fractures in the elderly population.

Atypical periprosthetic femur fracture on an underestimated atypical femoral pattern. A case report
Case: Atypical fracture patterns, especially to the femur midshaft, have begun emerging since long-term bisphosphonate use was introduced. The same fracture pattern could arise around prosthetic hip implant, but the literature reports few cases regarding
