Clinical and Functional Outcomes of Peri-Implant Fractures Associated with Short Proximal Femur Nails: Prevention Strategies and Key Insights.

: Hip fractures are prevalent among the elderly and impose a significant burden on healthcare systems due to the associated high morbidity and costs. The increasing use of intramedullary nails for hip fracture fixation has inadvertently introduced risks; these implants can alter bone elasticity and create stress concentrations, leading to peri-implant fractures. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcomes of peri-implant hip fractures, evaluate the potential causes of such fractures, determine the type of treatment provided, assess the outcomes of said treatments, and establish possible improvement strategies.

[Translated article] Implementation of a rapid recovery protocol in total knee arthroplasty. A randomised controlled trial.

Background: Rapid recovery (RP) in total knee arthroplasty may increase the functionality while reducing costs. The aim of this study is to prove the benefits of a rapid recovery programme compared to our classic protocol.

Patients And Methods: We performed a RCT (NCT03823573) in patients undergoing otal knee arthroplasty.

Dual Mobility Cups as the Routine Choice in Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered the most successful surgical procedure in orthopedics. However, dislocation remains the main indication for surgical revision. New designs of dual mobility cups (DMC) have lowered the classical complications and have extended the indications of DMC in elective surgeries.

Radiological results of surgical management of fracture of the distal radius treated with volar locking plates.

Objectives: Distal radius fracture (DRF) is the most common upper extremity fracture. The incidence of complications after surgical treatment still remains high. The objective of our study was to assess functional and radiological results of DRF treated with volar locking plate.
