One-year mortality and Periprosthetic infection rates after Total knee Arthroplasty in Cancer patients: a population-based cohort study

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2018
Background Knowledge on periprosthetic infection and mortality rate following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is essential for justifying this treatment in patients with cancer; however, relevant data from population-based studies are lacking.

In vivo pharmacokinetics of a gentamicin-loaded collagen sponge in acute periprosthetic infection - Serum values in 19 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background The in vivo pharmacokinetics of gentamycin- loaded collagen fleeces in humans have not been described in the current literature. We therefore analyzed in vivo pharmacokinetics of these fleeces when used in the treatment of periprosthetic ...

Arthroplasty surgery, especially total hip arthroplasty (THA), is considered amongst the most successful surgical procedures of all time. However, complications may occur that are disabling for patients. Of all complications, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the worst, requiring additional surgery and prolonged periods of antibiotic ...

Periprosthetic joint infection: Current concept

open access: yesIndian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2013
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most devastating and costly complications following total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Diagnosis and management of PJI is challenging for surgeons. There is no "gold standard" for diagnosis of PJI, making distinction between septic and aseptic failures difficult.

Changes in Lower Limb Axial Alignment, Gait Biomechanics, and Plantar Force in Crowe Type IV Hip Dysplasia After Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Mean Ten‐Year Follow‐Up Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This is the first study to examine the global alignment of the hip, knee, ankle, and lower limb after total hip arthroplasty in DDH Crowe type IV patients with a follow‐up period of more than 10 years. This is also the first study of its kind (as far as we know) in which both the unaffected and the affected sides were monitored, and full normalization ...

Perioperative Factors Associated With Allogeneic Blood Transfusion in Elective THA

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Early postoperative hematocrit is the strongest and most clinically useful predictor of transfusion risk after primary THA, while cup inclination has minimal discriminative value. A hematocrit threshold of < 0.28 L/L reliably identifies high‐risk patients and should guide transfusion‐related decision‐making.
