Article Synopsis
- Monoblock ceramic cups, like the DeltaMotion, are designed for total hip arthroplasty (THA) to provide better movement and stability, particularly for young and active patients.
- A study analyzed data from over 486,000 THA procedures to compare the DeltaMotion cup with modular designs, focusing on revision rates and issues like dislocation and ceramic breakage.
- The DeltaMotion cup showed lower overall revision rates and significantly fewer problems related to dislocation and ceramic breakage compared to modular bearings, indicating its effectiveness despite being discontinued.
Unlabelled: Adequate exposure is fundamental to safely and correctly perform open procedures around the knee. Tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) has previously been described as a method to improve exposure, particularly in complex primary elective knee arthroplasty or revision surgery. We describe a tibial tubercle osteotomy technique to improve exposure in complex knee fractures and a cadaveric study and trauma case series.

This study compares polyaxial compression locking screws with non-locked and cancellous screw constructs for acetabular cup fixation. An acetabular cup modified with screw holes to provide both compression and angular stability was implanted into a bone substitute.
