Metal Hypersensitivity in Total Joint Arthroplasty
JBJS Reviews, 2018* Metal hypersensitivity has been reported in various case reports and cohort studies. Type-IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity to various implant metals, most frequently nickel, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of metal hypersensitivity.* Currently, there are no guidelines for addressing suspected or known metal ...

Total joint arthroplasty in cancer patients
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2015Increasing numbers of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients have a history, or an active diagnosis, of cancer. We aimed to evaluate the risk of early postoperative complications in these patients. In our series, a history of malignancy was associated with an elevated risk of ischemic cardiac events and postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT), while ...

The Pathology of Failed Total Joint Arthroplasty
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1982In 94 cases of failed total hip and knee joint arthroplasties, acute and chronic inflammation, acrylic, metal, and polyethylene debris, and histiocytic reaction were assessed in a 0, 1+, 2+, 3+ semiquantitative manner. Chronic inflammation of 2+ to 3+ was not particularly useful in separating a reaction to wear debris from infection.

Total Arthroplasty of the Metatarsophalangeal Joint of the Hallux
Foot & Ankle International, 2016Background: The current gold standard in the treatment of severe hallux rigidus is arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP-I) joint. We present the results of a new 3-component MTP-I prosthesis. We determined (1) the intraoperative and perioperative complications; (2) survivorship of prosthesis ...

Rehabilitation and Total Joint Arthroplasty
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 2012The long-term outcomes following primary TJA for OA are favorable. However, surgery alone fails to fully restore physical function and address longstanding impairments associated with chronic joint disease. Older adults undergoing TJA can gain similar benefits as those who are younger; however, the elderly are at increased risk for adverse events ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1991
Patients with arthritis often want more information about their disease and surgery than physicians realize. They turn to the popular press, which focuses on recent, often untested innovations that capture the imagination. This information is not always consistent with the longer, more mundane perspective of science.

Total Arthroplasty of the Thumb Trapeziometacarpal Joint
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1987Considering the large number of procedures designed for the thumb trapeziometacarpal (TMC) joint, it is evident that none are completely satisfactory. Total arthroplasty attempts to improve the results of resection or space-occupying arthroplasties which, while providing good pain relief, have offered little thumb stability, strength, or normal motion.

Preventing Infection in Total Joint Arthroplasty
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2010Recent projections have forecast that by the year 2030 the number of primary total knee arthroplasty procedures will increase to 3.48 million, an increase of 673% compared with 2005, and the number of primary total hip arthroplasties will increase by 174% to 572,000, with the expectant result being that over 4 million primary total joint arthroplasties

Total Joint Arthroplasty for the Thumb Carpometacarpal Joint
The Journal of Hand SurgeryThumb carpometacarpal joint arthrosis is the second most common form of degenerative joint disease in the hand but the most frequent form of arthrosis treated surgically.
