Prevalence and risk factors for periprosthetic fracture in older recipients of total hip replacement: a cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Comparable incidence of periprosthetic tibial fractures in cementless and cemented unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2021
(I) To determine the incidence of periprosthetic tibial fractures in cemented and cementless unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and (II) to summarize the existing evidence on characteristics and risk factors of periprosthetic fractures in UKA ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

How to salvage a salvage endoprosthesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Custom-made endoprostheses can be linked to existing well-fixed implants in the treatment of complex periprosthetic femoral fractures. By adopting this salvage approach, secure implants can be retained in favour of patients undergoing more tissue ...

Locked compression plating versus retrograde intramedullary nailing in the treatment of periprosthetic supracondylar knee fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Background Periprosthetic fractures of the distal femur above a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have traditionally been managed by locking compression plating (LCP). This technique is technically demanding and is associated with high rates of non-union and

Artificial Intelligence for Bone: Theory, Methods, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced 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

Distal Femoral Replacements for Acute Comminuted Periprosthetic Knee Fractures: Satisfactory Clinical Outcomes at Medium-Term Follow-up

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2021
Background: Fracture fixation techniques of comminuted periprosthetic distal femoral fractures have high risk of complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate short- to medium-term outcomes of comminuted periprosthetic distal femoral fractures ...

Corrosion in Modular Revision Hip Stem Tapers – A Retrieval Analysis

open access: yesJournal 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.

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.

Frontiers in the Management of Orthopaedic Periprosthetic Joint Infection

open access: yesJournal 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
