True efficiency of arthrodesis in the treatment of periprosthetic knee infection [PDF]
Introduction The rate of complications after arthrodesis of the infected knee joint is 84 %, while the incidence of ankylosis failure varies from 17 % to 80 % thereby.

MRI of Total Hip Arthroplasty: Successful Ripple Artifact Reduction Using Wavelet Domain Filtering
ABSTRACT Background Slice encoding for metal artifact correction (SEMAC) is used in MRI for total hip arthroplasties for metal artifact reduction. However, ripple artifacts often arise near the implant, impairing diagnosis in affected regions. Hypothesis Applying a wavelet domain filter (WD‐Filter) might reduce ripple artifacts and improve image ...

Abstract Purpose Previous knee surgery is discussed as a risk factor for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet most reports do not distinguish between osteotomy and osteosynthesis. The German Operationen‐ und Prozedurenschlüssel (OPS)‐based classification was used to compare the impact of these procedures on implant survival, mortality and complications ...

Abstract Purpose Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) offers benefits over total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but some studies indicated higher revision rates, often involving conversion to TKA. The infection risk associated with UKA to TKA conversion compared to primary TKA is not definitively established.

Diagnosis and Prevention of Periprosthetic Joint Infections
The Diagnosis and Prevention of Periprosthetic Joint Infections Clinical Practice Guideline is based on a systematic review of current scientific and clinical research. Through analysis of the current best evidence, this guideline seeks to evaluate strategies to mitigate the risk of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in hip and knee arthroplasty and ...

Abstract Purpose Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may later require total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to osteoarthritis (OA). The impact of previous ACLR on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after TKA remains uncertain.

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.
