Transcatheter mitral valve replacement versus redo surgery for mitral prosthesis failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
BackgroundTranscatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as an alternative to redo surgery. TMVR compared with redo surgical mitral valve replacement (SMVR) in patients with mitral prosthesis failure remains limited.

Total femur prosthesis in oncological and not oncological series. Survival and failures [PDF]
Total femur prosthesis (TFP) can be used in both oncological and prosthetic revision surgery. A retrospective analysis of 32 patients receiving a TFP at a single Center between 2002 and 2018 was performed. The average follow-up was 60 months. Revision implant free survival (RIFS) of the implants was 87% at 5 and 10 years and 72% at 15 years.

Mechanism of late failure of the Alvarez disc valve prosthesis. [PDF]
An Alvarez disc valve prosthesis had been implanted in the mitral and tricuspid positions in 15 patients between 1964 and 1967 in this hospital. Of these 15 patients, only three survived longer than 10 years, all three dying unexpectedly between 16 and 18 years postoperatively.

Implant failure of the Compress prosthesis: a case report
BACKGROUND: The Compress is designed to achieve bone formation and stability by applying pressure at the bone–implant interface, minimizing the likelihood of aseptic loosening, which is a complication of stem implants. Herein, we report two cases of implant failure using the Compress.

Metal Hypersensitivity in Patients With Failure of Joint Prosthesis Treatment
The objective of this study is to measure lymphocyte responses to metal antigens using MELISA (memory lymphocyte immunostimulation assay) test–modified lymphocyte transformation test (mLTT) and to evaluate metal sensitization in patients with and without the need of prosthetic surgery. This study is a case‐control retrospective survey.

Trends of mechanical consequences and modeling of a fibrous membrane around femoral hip prostheses [PDF]
In the present study, the effects of a fibrous membrane between cement and bone in a femoral total hip replacement were investigated. The study involved the problem of modeling this fibrous membrane in finite-element analyses, and its global consequences

Tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) and voice prosthesis insertion following laryngectomy may fail to form an adequate seal. When spontaneous closure of the fistula tract does not occur after conservative measures, surgical closure is required.
