Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

Revision of trapeziometacarpal arthroplasty
Complications of trapeziometacarpal arthroplasty are uncommon, but are classified as intra- and post-operative, dislocation and loosening being the main causes of revision surgery. Periprosthetic fracture and ossification are rare. Whenever possible, prosthetic revision techniques consist in partial or total replacement with modular implants ...

Is a Revision a Revision? An Analysis of National Arthroplasty Registries’ Definitions of Revision [PDF]
The reported survival of implants depends on the definition used for the endpoint, usually revision. When screening through registry reports from different countries, it appears that revision is defined quite differently.The purposes of this study were to compare the definitions of revision among registry reports and to apply common clinical scenarios ...

Is Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty a Reasonable Alternative for Revision Arthroplasty? [PDF]
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) improves function in selected patients with complex shoulder problems. However, we presume patient function would vary if performed primarily or for revision and would vary with other patient-specific factors.We compared (1) the shoulder scores and (2) complications in patients with RSA for revision arthroplasty with
