Mean 14-year Outcomes of Hybrid Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Bulk Femoral Head Autografts for Acetabular Reconstruction.

Background: We aimed to evaluate the mean 14-year outcomes of hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cementless acetabular cups using bulk femoral head autografts in acetabular reconstruction and specify the radiological characteristics of cementless acetabular cups using this technique.

Methods: This retrospective study included 98 patients (123 hips) who underwent hybrid THA with a cementless acetabular cup using bulk femoral head autografts for bone deficiency in acetabular dysplasia and who were followed-up for a mean of 14 years (range, 10 to 19.6).

Total hip arthroplasty after rotational acetabular osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip: a retrospective observational study.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty after osteotomy is more technically challenging than primary total hip arthroplasty, especially concerning cup placement. This is attributed to bone morphological abnormalities caused by acetabular bone loss and osteophyte formation. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasty after rotational acetabular osteotomy compared with those of primary total hip arthroplasty, focusing mainly on acetabular deformity and cup position.

Lasso loop technique using bioabsorbable thread to treat intra-articular distal radius fracture.

This article introduces our lasso loop technique (LLT) using a bioabsorbable thread for the treatment of intra-articular distal radius fractures with displaced dorsal bone fragment containing articular surface (DBF). We also examined whether the articular gap is sufficiently reduced and maintained by the LLT, along with the results of other radiological and clinical evaluations. We retrospectively reviewed 19 patients who underwent LLT for intra-articular distal radius fracture with a displaced DBF.

Eccentric Rotational Acetabular Osteotomy Using Computed Navigation Guidance for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip, Sacroiliac Fusion, and Femoroacetabular Impingement Owing to Acetabular Retroversion: A Case Report.

Background: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the main factor that causes secondary osteoarthritis of the hip (hip OA). Acetabular retroversion results in pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and this is also known to cause secondary hip OA. However, few cases of DDH with acetabular retroversion have been reported, and there is no definite opinion on the optimal treatment.

Prosthetic joint infection after total hip arthroplasty caused by Sneathia sanguinegens: A case report (CARE-complaint).

Introduction: Sneathia sanguinegens(S sanguinegens) is a gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium mostly reported to cause a perinatal infection, and there are no reports of S sanguinegens in prosthetic joint infection (PJI). The purpose of this report is to describe a very rare case of PJI after total hip arthroplasty (THA) caused by S sanguinegens.

Patient Concerns: A 79-year-old woman presented with right coxalgia, inability to walk, and a fever of 39°C.

Accumulation of microdamage and low bone mass in the femoral head as a cause of subchondral insufficiency fracture in a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta.

Subchondral insufficiency fractures of the femoral head are generally considered to be osteoporosis-related fragility fractures. There have been reports of microfractures being found in subchondral bone on pathological examination. However, the mechanism of these microfractures is not known.

Accumulation of microdamage in subchondral bone at the femoral head in patients with end-stage osteoarthritis of the hip.

In end-stage osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip, the effect of bone metabolism with and without cartilage is unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate histomorphology and microdamage in the subchondral bone of the femoral head in areas with and without articular cartilage in patients with end-stage OA. Nineteen femoral heads were evaluated in 10 women who underwent total hip arthroplasty for OA and in nine cadaveric controls (CNT).
