Bilateral multiple periprosthetic hip fractures and joint dislocations secondary to general convulsive seizures

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background During a seizure, there is a powerful and forceful contraction of muscles which may lead to fractures or joint dislocations. However, multiple periprosthetic hip fractures and joint dislocations secondary to seizures have not been reported ...

3D Printing of Bacteriophage‐Loaded Hydrogels: Development of a Local and Long‐Lasting Delivery System

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This research investigates the feasibility of 3D‐printing of a bacteriophage‐containing hydrogel made of alginate and methylcellulose. The printed hydrogels steadily release active bacteriophages for up to 35 days which is beneficial to treat implant‐associated infections.

Artificial Intelligence for Bone: Theory, Methods, and Applications

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) offer the potential to improve bone research. The current review explores the contributions of AI to pathological study, biomarker discovery, drug design, and clinical diagnosis and prognosis of bone diseases. We envision that AI‐driven methodologies will enable identifying novel targets for drugs discovery. The

Corrosion in Modular Revision Hip Stem Tapers – A Retrieval Analysis

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In revision hip arthroplasty, modular stems enable intraoperative adjustment of the biomechanics of the hip to ensure a stable joint function even in complex anatomical cases. Modular stem junctions, however, carry the risk of junction degradation due to corrosive processes or even junction breakage.

Frontiers in the Management of Orthopaedic Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA), one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide. Management of acute PJI commonly involves debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR), though failure rates remain high due to antibiotic‐tolerant biofilms. Chronic

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
