Purpose: The objective was to identify predictive factors for intraprosthetic dislocation (IPD) and to understand how improvements in dual mobility cups (DMC) have helped to reduce dramatically the occurrence of this complication.

Methods: DM mobile inserts retrieved from 93 hips were divided into three groups: first-generation DMC with IPD ("firstDMC-IPD"), first-generation DMC with over 15 years of implantation without IPD ("firstDMC-noIPD"), and latest-generation DMC ("newDMC"). The predictive factors for IPD based on clinical, prosthetic, radiological and intraoperative characteristics were analysed by multivariate analysis.

Background: AES mobile-bearing total ankle replacement was developed from the Buechel Pappas model. It was withdrawn in 2009, after identification of a higher than expected complication rate. The purpose of the current study was to analyse clinical outcomes, failures and survival of the initial series of 50 AES published in 2009.

Purpose: Dual mobility THA implantations are increasing. THA survival of more than 15 years is considered long-term survival based on the Charnley prosthesis, which has a median wear rate of 39 to 98 mm/year. What is the median wear rate of dual mobility THA cups and its repartition on the liner volume? What are the factors influencing dual mobility wear?

Methods: Thirty-five explants were analysed.

Purpose: The linear penetration rate (LPR) has been used to estimate volumetric wear ever since metal-on-polyethylene bearings were first introduced. Annual volumetric wear and osteolysis are interrelated. The use of dual mobility cups has increased; however, the presence of two bearings needs paraclinical monitoring of wear to anticipate potential wear-related complications.
