One-stage revision hip arthroplasty for infection using primary cementless stems as first-line implants: About 35 cases.

Introduction: During infected total hip arthroplasty revisions (THAR), the need for systematic antibiotic cementation remains undefined.

Hypothesis: Implantation of a primary cementless stem as first-line implant in 1-stage septic THAR provides results as good as those from a stem cemented with antibiotics in terms of infection resolution.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively examined 35 patients operated on for septic THAR with Avenir® cementless stem placement - between 2008 and 2018 at Besançon University Hospital - with a minimum follow-up of 2 years to define healing in the absence of infectious recurrence.

Omentum Free Flap Anastomosed to Arterial Bypass in Open Knee Dislocation: Case Report and Discussion.

Objective: To report on the original surgical management of a patient with severe trauma of both legs involving anastomosis of an omentum free flap with an emergency vascular bypass.

Methods: After stabilization of the knee with an external fixator, a femoral-tibial bypass graft was performed to revascularize the leg with the contralateral great saphenous vein. Ten days later, an omentum free flap was used with an end-to-side arterial anastomosis between the right gastroepiploic artery and bypass graft to cover the loss of leg substance.
