Background: Septic hip revision arthroplasty is a complex procedure associated with significant perioperative risks. This study aimed to analyze perioperative and follow-up risk factors in patients undergoing septic hip revision arthroplasty. Methods...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) aggravates the already difficult treatment of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI). Due to many factors influencing AMR, the correct choice of antimicrobial management remains arguable. The primary purpose of this retr...
Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the late sequelae of childhood septic hip arthritis is technically demanding, and infection-related risk remains incompletely defined. This systematic review and meta-analysis address the research question...
Aging causes a reduction in testosterone and estrogen, which is linked to diminished bone mineral density. Hormone replacement therapy and its effect on the outcome of joint arthroplasties is unclear. The purpose of this study was to analyze the impa...
Background and Objectives: Increased revision rate of dual-modular (DM) femoral stems in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) because of modular-neck breakage and adverse local tissue reactions (ALTRs) to additional junction damage products is well e...
Background/Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate how the joint, the number and the type of prior revision surgeries influence the diagnostic thresholds for synovial cell count for patients who undergo their first total hip or knee arthr...
Background: Preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) poses an unmet clinical challenge. The long pentraxin PTX3 is a component of the innate immune system involved in infection immunity. This study evaluated the potential of s...
Background: The pre-operative three-dimensional (3D) assessment of acetabular bone defects may not be evaluated properly with conventional radiographic and computed tomography images. This paper reports mid-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of...
Accurate preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is difficult, complicating distinction between septic and aseptic failures. This study assessed the value of common serum biomarkers and three calculated ratios—albumin&nda...
Background/Objectives: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a disastrous complication after joint replacement procedures as the diagnosis remains a significant challenge. The objective of this study is to assess the accuracy and test the interdepe...
