Purpose: To compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) using standard offset versus high offset short cementless stems.
Methods: We reviewed a consecutive series of 204 primary THAs performed over 5 years using a short cementless collared stem. At a minimum follow-up of 2 years, 6 patients had deceased, 6 were not evaluated radiographically and, 2 were lost to follow-up.
Introduction: Tibial intercondylar eminence fractures are a rare pathology causing anterior laxity of the knee, which requires anatomical reduction and a stable osteosynthesis. The aim of this study was to present the clinical results of reinsertion in anatomical position of these fractures, in the paediatric population, using a threaded pin with an adjustable lock.
Hypothesis: Our hypothesis was that the clinical results would be satisfactory and comparable to the literature.
Introduction: Hinged total knee arthroplasty (hTKA) is one of the treatment options available for complex fractures around an intact knee or an existing implant. The primary objective of this multicenter study was to evaluate the medium-term outcomes of hTKA for fractures. The secondary objective was to analyze the complications and risk factors based on fracture type, predisposition and time to surgery.
