Cementless total hip arthroplasty for failed treatment of subtrochanteric fracture.

Background: Failed treatment of subtrochanteric fractures commonly leads to pain, limping, and poor limb function. Cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) could serve as an efficient salvage procedure in such cases. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes and complications of salvage THA in failed subtrochanteric fracture fixation cases.

Minimum 15-year results of metasul 28-mm metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty in patients younger than 50 years of age.

Background: Some propitious mid- and long-term studies had been reported for MoM bearings; however, most studies have addressed specific patient groups rather than younger, active patients, who probably represent the most suitable population for investigations on wear and osteolysis. The purpose of this study to evaluate the long-term results of second-generation metal-on-metal cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients aged <50 years.

Methods: From December 1997 to January 2004, primary THA using a metal-on-metal bearing cementless implant was performed in 63 patients (72 hips) aged <50 years.

Mid-term results of total hip arthroplasty with modified trochanteric osteotomy in Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip.

Background: This study aimed to explore mid-term clinical results of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) with modified trochanteric osteotomy in Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).

Methods: Thirteen patients (13 hips) with Crowe type IV DDH who underwent THA with modified trochanteric osteotomy between May 2013 and October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The mean follow-up duration was 5.

Survival Analysis of Total Hip Arthroplasty for High Hip Dislocation Secondary to Developmental Dysplasia or Septic Arthritis of the Hip.

Background: This retrospective study was conducted to know clinical and radiographic outcomes, complication rate, and survival of THA in patients with high hip dislocation secondary to developmental dysplasia(DDH) or septic arthritis of the hip(SSH).

Methods: Between March 2005 and September 2014, there were consecutive series of 53 THAs in patients with a highly dislocated hip secondary to DDH or SSH. Of these, 48 hips (DDH 24 and SSH 24) were reviewed at a mean follow-up of 7.

The results of screw augmentation of acetabular cement spacers for the treatment of periprosthetic hip joint infection.

Introduction: Prosthesis of antibiotic-loaded acrylic cement (PROSTALAC) is widely used in two-stage revision arthroplasty in periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). In our institution, we encountered several cases of acetabular cement spacer dislodgement. The aim of this study was to compare the results of two-stage revision arthroplasties with antibiotic-loaded cement spacers with or without screws on the acetabulum for PJI.
