Antibacterial surface modification of titanium implants in orthopaedics [PDF]
The use of biomaterials in orthopaedics for joint replacement, fracture healing and bone regeneration is a rapidly expanding field. Infection of these biomaterials is a major healthcare burden, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Furthermore,

Background The sinus tract has been demonstrated to be a factor affecting the efficacy of periprosthetic joint infection. Reinfection after prosthesis removal and antibiotic bone cement spacer implantation is one of the reasons for the failure of two ...

Abstract Purpose To compare clinical outcomes in varus‐aligned patients undergoing cruciate‐retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with mechanical alignment (MA) versus unrestricted kinematic alignment (KA). The hypothesis was that KA would yield superior outcomes, and that preserving joint line obliquity—regardless of alignment technique—would be ...

Periprosthetic joint infection: Current concept
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.

This meta‐analysis suggests that NGS of sonicate fluid demonstrates higher sensitivity compared to NGS of synovial fluid or periprosthetic tissue, while maintaining strong specificity, making it valuable for detecting infection. Periprosthetic tissue NGS demonstrated exceptional specificity and acceptable sensitivity, making it valuable for confirming ...

Bisphosphonate-induced periprosthetic fracture: a cause of painful total hip arthroplasty [PDF]
Background. Cases have been reported in the literature of periprosthetic fractures associated with the use of bisphosphonates occurring in the long term following a Total Hip Replacement (THR).

Periprosthetic joint infection:A South African perspective
Background. South African data on the bacteriology and sensitivity profile of periprosthetic joint infection is lacking. Current regimens for systemic and local antibiotic therapy are based on international literature.
