[When to resume driving after primary total hip arthroplasty?].

Introduction: the current literature relates the return to driving with multiple variables. For various reasons, the current data on the time to return to driving after a total hip arthroplasty (THA) are diverse and even contradictory. We have proposed the objective of determining the time required to drive a manual gear vehicle again in a group of patients who underwent primary THA through a posterolateral approach with focus on manual gear cars.

[Preliminary results of hybrid fixation modular implant in revision knee arthroplasty].

Introduction: revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a challenging procedure that requires proper alignment, restoration of bone loss, and prevention of instability. Modern revision systems offer progressive implant constriction with multiple options for offset, augmentation, and fixation stems.

Objective: to evaluate the clinical outcomes of a modular implant with hybrid fixation in revision TKA with a minimum follow-up of two years.

Is cannulated-screw fixation an alternative to plate osteosynthesis in open book fractures? A biomechanical analysis.

Objectives: The current biomechanical work compares the symphyseal and sacroiliac stability obtained with two systems of bone osteosynthesis. The two methods of fixation compared were the 6-hole suprapubic non-locked plate and pubic fixation with two cannulated screws, a novel technique that can be applied percutaneously in the clinical practice. The aim of this study was to examine the validity of the use of two-cannulated-screws osteosynthesis in order to minimize the secondary effects of open fixation, especially in patients in whom an open reduction is contraindicated.
