Mono- versus polyaxial locking plates in distal femur fractures – a biomechanical comparison of the Non-Contact-Bridging- (NCB) and the PERILOC-plate [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The aim of this cadaveric study was to compare a polyaxial (NCB®, Zimmer) to a fixed-angle monoaxial locking plate (PERILOC®, Smith & Nephew) in comminuted fractures of the distal femur regarding stability of the construct.

Prevalence and risk factors for periprosthetic fracture in older recipients of total hip replacement: a cohort study [PDF]
Background: The growing utilization of total joint replacement will increase the frequency of its complications, including periprosthetic fracture. The prevalence and risk factors of periprosthetic fracture require further study, particularly over the ...

Open Periprosthetic Patella Fracture Around Knee Endoprosthesis: A Unique Case Report
Introduction: Periprosthetic fracture, after total knee arthroplasty, is one of the most common reasons of revision arthroplasty and periprosthetic fracture of the patella has been shown to be very rare.

PERIPROSTHETIC FRACTURES AFTER JOINT REPLACEMENT: A UNIFIED CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
Periprosthetic fracture associated with joint replacement is a common reason for revision arthroplasty and is increasing. Establishing universal principles of management is essential for good outcomes and a classification system that not only classifies,

Antibiotic Spacers in Shoulder Arthroplasty: Comparison of Stemmed and Stemless Implants. [PDF]
Background: Antibiotic spacers in shoulder periprosthetic joint infection deliver antibiotics locally and provide temporary stability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences between stemmed and stemless spacers. Methods: All spacers placed

Modular stem in total hip arthroplasty for patients with trochanter valgus deformity: surgical technique and case series. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Trochanter valgus deformity (TVD) is a rare condition of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Femoral osteotomy could be required in correcting the deformity to implant femoral stem in severe TVD.

A methodology for the generation and non-destructive characterisation of transverse fractures in long bones [PDF]
Long bone fractures are common and although treatments are highly effective in most cases, it is challenging to achieve successful repair for groups such as open and periprosthetic fractures.

This study presents a new biodegradable coating for titanium implants using a natural antimicrobial peptide, caerin 1.9. Applied via solvent casting, the coating offers sustained antibacterial protection and promotes healing. Tested on 3D‐printed porous titanium scaffolds, it effectively prevented infection—including against resistant bacteria—while ...
