The Effect of Loading on the Contact Stress of UHMWPE Material for Artificial Hip Joint Bearing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An artificial hip joint consists of several main components. The components are femoral stem, femoral head, acetabular liner and acetabular shell. As its function as a bearing, an acetabular liner is designed to reduce friction and receive the high ...

Experimental investigation on tribological properties of UHMWPE with the addition of basalt fiber

open access: yesAdvanced Composites Letters, 2019
To seek the effective and feasible way to enhance the tribological properties of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) materials, a comparative investigation on the tribological behavior of basalt fiber (BF) as filler in UHMWPE composites was ...

Arthroscopic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair Without Anchors for Chronic Lateral Ankle Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) repair techniques have been increasingly used in the treatment of chronic ankle instability. Arthroscopic approaches not only allow for the management of concomitant intra‐articular pathologies but also help minimize wound‐related complications associated with open surgery and ...

The wear behaviour of ion implanted biomaterials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The tribological performance of biomaterials used for artificial joints is of much importance, and require low coefficients of friction, resistance to wear and the ability to withstand many millions of cycles under a multitude of loading regimes ...

The Tendon‐to‐Bone Seam: A Transtendinous Approach to Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technique article describes the tendon‐to‐bone seam technique, a knotless, transtendinous approach to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The technique employs a single‐use deployment device preloaded with multiple PEEK anchors interconnected with a single polyethylene #2 suture, enabling the surgeon to create a continuous “seam” of ...

Arthroscopic All‐Inside/All‐Suture Repair of Complete Radial Tear of the Lateral Meniscus Using a Percutaneous Single‐Needle Technique

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Radial tears of the lateral meniscus have limited healing potential and unfavorable biomechanics, and current suture constructs that use capsular rip‐stop stitches may increase meniscal extrusion and constrain native motion. This technical note describes an all‐inside, crossed, meniscus‐based repair for complete or near‐complete radial tears ...
