Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.

Periprosthetic joint infection increases the risk of one-year mortality. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection continues to potentially complicate an otherwise successful joint replacement. The treatment of this infection often requires multiple surgical procedures associated with increased complications and morbidity ...

Classification of Prosthetic Joint Infections

open access: yes, 2012
This chapter presents the development of classification systems for PJI and the rationale behind them. Their features are discussed and compared for the reader to understand the strengths and the weaknesses. The most important and widely used is presented and discussed in some detail.

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

The inter-rater reliability of the diagnosis of surgical site infection in the context of a clinical trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
ObjectivesThe diagnosis of surgical site infection following endoprosthetic reconstruction for bone tumours is frequently a subjective diagnosis. Large clinical trials use blinded Central Adjudication Committees (CACs) to minimise the variability and ...

A standardized surgical technique for DAIR improves treatment success rates in acute periprosthetic knee infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Results after debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) for acute periprosthetic knee joint infections (PJIs) vary widely. Although data are limited, surgeon expertise and surgical technique likely influence outcomes. Standardized DAIR performed by surgeons within a multidisciplinary team (MDT) dedicated to the treatment of

Molekulare Signalwege der aseptischen Endoprothesenlockerung (Molecular pathways in aseptic loosening of orthopaedic endoprosthesis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Operative joint replacement to treat disabling joint conditions secondary to degenerative and inflammatory arthritides has become one of the most efficacious and cost-effective procedures to relieve pain and restore joint function.

Contemporary patellofemoral arthroplasty is associated with lower revision rates compared with the previous decade: A meta‐analysis using revisions per 100 component‐years

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to assess global data on patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA) survival a decade after a prior investigation by Reihs et al. using the same endpoints and data sources, aiming to quantify potential changes in implant survival over this period.

Joint line obliquity disruption negatively affects mid‐term patient‐reported outcomes following total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The influence of change in coronal alignment on clinical outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains unclear. The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification can be broken up into arithmetic hip–knee–ankle (aHKA) angle and joint line obliquity (JLO) components, potentially identifying distinct failure ...
