Direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty (DA THA) has been reported to improve early outcomes compared posterior THA up 6 weeks postoperatively. Limited weekly data are available prior weeks. We evaluate including when patients first drive a car, leave home, and discontinue their assist device.Patients undergoing for primary osteoarthritis were prospectively enrolled. Outcomes collected preoperatively postoperatively at intervals weeks.111 (55 DA 56 approach) There was no significant...
The modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) is a validated and disease-specific instrument commonly used to assess outcomes in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) validated, computer adaptive testing (CAT)–based global health assessment tool. authors' goal was examine the correlation between PROMIS Pain Interference Physical Function CATs mHHS patients undergoing primary THA. All THAs were performed by 1 of 2 fellowship-trained dedicated...
Introduction: Intraoperative radiographic evaluation during total hip arthroplasty (THA) has shown to improve the accuracy of acetabular component placement, however, differences in interpretation based on technique not been established. This study aims determine if exist abduction and anteversion between different projections. Methods: 55 consecutive direct anterior THAs 49 patients were prospectively enrolled. Target was defined by Lewinnek zone. Fluoroscopy used placement...
Reports of irreducible patellar dislocations are exceedingly sparse throughout the literature. Obvious radiographic or physical exam findings including fracture inversion patella often present to explain block reduction. Not described previously in literature is instance an dislocation setting innocuous appearing injury imaging. We a case healthy thirty-two-year-old female who sustained lateral while participating dance aerobics class. Closed means reduction were unsuccessful, necessitating...
Purpose: Supine positioning and the use of fluoroscopy during direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty (DAA THA) have been reported to improve acetabular component positioning. This study aims compare 2-dimensional intraoperative radiographic RadLink measurements position with 3-dimensional postoperative 3D SterEOS measurements. Methods: Intraoperative (El Segundo, CA, USA) were used measure cup intraoperatively in 48 consecutive patients undergoing DAA THA. Cup was measured on 6-week...
The ideal surgical treatment of femoral neck fractures remains controversial. When treating these with internal fixation, many fixation constructs exist. primary aim this study was to evaluate the incidence and specific risk factors associated complication re-operation following intracapsular proximal using Targon-FN system (B.Braun Melsungen AG). A secondary identify if lateral prominence implant relative border vastus ridge a factor for elective plate removal. Methodically, retrospective...
The success of a clinical trial depends on its recruitment eligible patients; therefore, the period requires special attention. We hypothesized that with new approach focused continuous information and gratification, resident motivation to participate in scientific work will increase rates improve.Our was applied phase two prospective randomized trials (registered at German Clinical Trials Register). Randomization these performed first using blinded envelopes; later soft drink machine used...
Abstract Objectives To establish and validate a novel method for aligning femoral rotation to accurately measure offset preoperative templating component sizing, identify the physical location of two radiographic lines utilized in described method. Materials methods Cadaveric proximal femurs were skeletonized mounted biaxial load frame. Two along greater trochanter identified fluoroscopically. The rotated, images taken when appeared superimposed, then 2-degree increments 10° internal...
