Rothia prosthetic knee joint infection
Rothia species - Gram-positive pleomorphic bacteria that are part of the normal oral and respiratory flora - are commonly associated with dental cavities and periodontal disease although systemic infections have been described. We describe a 53-year-old female with rheumatoid arthritis complicated by prosthetic knee joint infection due to Rothia ...

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 ...

Introduction Oral health is part of general health, and oral diseases share risk factors with several non‐communicable diseases. The World Dental Federation (FDI) has published a theoretical framework illustrating the complex interactions between the core elements of oral health (CEOHs): driving determinants, moderating factors, and general health and ...

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 ...

Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty reduces patellar tilt: A retrospective study
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral kinematics is crucial for patient satisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). A postoperative patellar tilt greater than 5° has been associated with inferior clinical outcomes. While a femoral component external rotation beyond 3° is generally protective against patellar tilt, personalized alignment may not ...

Abstract Purpose Numerous studies have compared post‐operative patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) between medial‐pivot design total knee arthroplasty (MP‐TKA) and posterior‐stabilized design TKA (PS‐TKA); however, whether MP‐TKA demonstrates superior outcomes remains controversial.

Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty systems offer both image‐based and imageless workflows, but their comparative accuracy remains unclear. The robotic surgical assistant (ROSA) system uniquely provides both approaches within a single platform.

Abstract Purpose Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is gaining traction as a surgical philosophy. True personalization, however, must encompass not only the coronal plane but also the sagittal and axial planes. This study evaluates influence of the Tibial Slope (PTS) and combined flexion (CF) on outcomes in TKA performed using ...
