Five Year Follow-up of One Stage Bilateral Total Hip Arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2007
We report on the medium term outcome of five patients (ten hips) who underwent one stage bilateral total hip arthroplasty. Both Harris Hip Scores and Oxford Hip Scores improved postoperatively as did range of motion. There was no radiographic evidence of

The unstable total hip arthroplasty

open access: yesEFORT Open Reviews, 2016
One of the most common causes for revision surgery following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is dislocation. Dislocation is associated with a considerable amount of suffering and risks for the patient, and extra costs for the health care system. Compared with degenerative arthritis, the dislocation rate is doubled for avascular necrosis and multiplied by ...

Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Method for Characterization of Material Loss from Modular Head-Stem Taper Surfaces of Hip Replacement Devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Assessment of the head-stem taper junction requires the estimation of material loss from the taper surfaces of both femoral head and stem. This paper describes a method for the measurement and analysis of material loss from the modular taper junction of ...

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.

The effect of high dose antibiotic impregnated cement on rate of surgical site infection after hip hemiarthroplasty for fractured neck of femur : a protocol for a double-blind quasi randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Mortality following hip hemiarthroplasty is in the range of 10-40% in the first year, with much attributed to post-operative complications.

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.

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

Kuntscher nail removal: Revision of a failed hip resurfacing above an incarcerated Kuntscher nail. A case report of a smart nail extraction technique through a custom-made instrumentation

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports
Removal of a retained and osseointegrated intramedullary femoral nail can represent a considerable problem, especially in the case of contemporary total hip arthroplasty or, even worse, in the case of revision hip arthroplasty.

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 ...
