Predictors of outcomes after internal fixation of periprosthetic femoral hip fractures Subgroup analysis of the peri-implant and peri-prosthetic fractures Spanish registry (PIPPAS).

Purpose: To identify risk factors predisposing patients to poor outcomes after fixation of periprosthetic hip fractures around femoral stems.

Methods: Prospective multicentre cohort study of fractures around a hip replacement stem managed by internal fixation. The primary outcome was one-year mortality, while secondary outcomes were local complications and healthcare burden-related outcomes (nursing facility utilization and hospital length of stay).

Arthroscopic transosseous rotator cuff repair: how to avoid damaging the axillary nerve-a cadaveric study.

Introduction: Arthroscopic transosseous rotator cuff repair can be performed with an external guide, although the proximity to the axillary nerve raises safety concerns. The aim of this study is to determine the safety of different drilling angles regarding the axillary nerve.

Materials And Methods: We performed a bone tunnel in the greater tuberosity in 17 fresh frozen shoulders, using an external guide at four different angles: 40°, 50°, 60°, and 70°.

Results after the application of tranexamic acid intravenous or intra-articular in the control of postsurgical bleeding after total hip arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: A frequent complication after total hip arthroplasty is bleeding; to reduce it, intravenous or intra-articular tranexamic acid (TXA) is used. There is no evidence yet on which route of administration is better.

Materials And Method: This was a prospective, controlled, randomized study in 2 arms between February 2017 and February 2019.

Cementless modular neck stems: are they a safe option in primary total hip arthroplasty?

Purpose: The objective was to assess aseptic complications and functional outcome using a primary total hip arthroplasty with modular neck.

Methods: Prospective cohort of 317 consecutive patients. The mean age was 61.
