Several short- and mid-term studies have shown minimal liner wear of highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) in total hip arthroplasty (THA), but the safety using thinner HXLPE liners to maximize femoral head size remains uncertain. The objective this study was analyze clinical survival radiological rates patients with liners, a 36 mm head, small acetabular component minimum ten years' follow-up.We retrospectively identified 55 who underwent primary THA performed at single centre,...
Proximal humerus fractures are the third most common fracture in elderly population and expected to increase due aging population. Surgical fixation with locking plate technology has increased over last decade despite a lack of proven superiority literature. Three previous randomized controlled trials have not shown difference patient-centered outcomes when comparing non-operative treatment open reduction internal fixation. Low patient enrollment other methodological concerns however limit...
➢ Bone defect management is challenging, but essential, in revision total knee arthroplasty. Appropriate metaphyseal fixation crucial for stability and implant support. Allografts have been traditionally used to address large defects, the advent of highly porous cones sleeves has attracted attention during past years. Metaphyseal implants are now available a variety shapes sizes meet various clinical needs. These devices can successfully fill better support implants, achieve long-term...
Uptake of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine for children aged 5-11 years has been lower than anticipated in Canada. Although research explored parental intentions toward vaccination children, decisions regarding vaccinations have not studied in-depth. We sought to explore reasons why parents chose vaccinate or their against better understand decisions.We conducted a qualitative study involving in-depth individual interviews with purposive sample Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, via telephone video call...
: Patient and implant selection is essential to optimize outcome. Femoral bone loss classifications such as the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Gross, Paprosky permit surgeons systematically manage stock deficiencies guide selection. Here we provide a comprehensive report on pitfalls management this reconstructive challenge. Preoperative planning remains vital treatment femoral in revision hip arthroplasty authors believe it should include entire femur. This commonly includes...
The Wagner Cone Prosthesis was designed to address complex femoral deformities during total hip arthroplasty (THA), but its mid-term component survivorship and functional outcomes remain undetermined. objectives of this study were determine the implant survivorship, patient satisfaction, outcomes, osseointegration as seen radiographically, subsidence, complications THA using stem at intermediate-term follow-up.
Aims There are limited long-term studies reporting on outcomes of the Zimmer Modular Revision (ZMR) stem, and concerns remain regarding failure. Our primary aim was to determine survival free from all-cause revision stem-related failure for this modular stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Secondary aims included evaluating radiological functional outcomes. Methods We retrospectively identified all patients our institutional database who underwent THA using ZMR system January 2000 December...
In Iraq and Afghanistan over 75% of the combat casualties suffered by U.S. troops have involved explosive devices. Improvements in body armor advances military medicine significantly reduced number combat-related fatalities, but greatly increased active component personnel suffering painful trauma injuries. Unfortunately, so far, pharmacologic analgesia pain medications not kept pace with survivability. For many Veterans, is a top health complaint from patients. The opioid epidemic has...
Tourniquet use is common practice in many millions of orthopaedic procedures annually. Recent reviews risks and benefits surgical tourniquet have primarily involved meta-analyses, which forgone a comprehensive risk-benefit analysis to simply question whether "tourniquet or no tourniquet" produces improved patient outcomes, often leading limited, inconclusive, conflicting results. To investigate further, pilot survey was undertaken determine current practices, opinions, understandings among...
As the number of total knee arthroplasties performed continues to increase, complications such as postoperative periprosthetic fractures are becoming increasingly more common. Femoral most common type around a arthroplasty, whereas tibial and patellar infrequent. Treatment principles depend on bone fracture is located, status implant fixation, stock, implants available. The Vancouver classification allows for standardized system describe manage these injuries, incorporating factors. A...
