A Unique Variant of Intra-Prosthetic Dislocation in Dual Mobility Articulation Total Hip Arthroplasty-Displacement of Metal Liner.

Total hip arthroplasty stands as a milestone in surgical success for alleviating hip arthritis-related pain and enhancing patients' quality of life. While complications persist, advancements like dual-mobility articulation aims to mitigate risks. This manuscript presents an unprecedented unique complication in a 60-year-old woman with a revision dual mobility THA.

Visualizing the obscure- Chromophore-assisted retinal break detection.

Background: Finding a retinal break which is responsible for retinal detachment is a critical step in the surgical treatment of this condition. In spite of improvement in visualization systems in pars plana vitrectomy, identifying the break which is the source of subretinal fluid (SRF) could pose a challenge, especially in complex retinal detachments or re-detachments with extensive laser scars.

Purpose: The current technique of break identification involves direct detection of the break via peripheral indentation or using perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) to displace SRF from the posterior retina to the periphery and visualizing the proteinaceous SRF egress from the retinal break.

An Intraoperative Technique to Assess Tissue Tension and Leg Length When Aligning the Hip Centre of Rotation With the Acetabulum in Hip Arthroplasties.

Hip arthroplasties are cost-effective procedures; however, instability and leg length discrepancy are common complications that can lead to higher revision rates and patient dissatisfaction. Preoperative planning aids surgeons in choosing the right offset and neck length before surgery. Nonetheless, intraoperative measures are still necessary due to the differences dictated by the surgical procedure.

The Glowport - Illuminated vitrectomy trocar cannulas.

The use of small-gauge trocar cannulas during transconjunctival sutureless pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) facilitates the smooth transition of instruments into the posterior segment and reduces trauma. However, room lighting is routinely dimmed during PPV, thereby making cannula visualization difficult and hence compromising efficient instrument exchange. We report the use of a frugal, fluorescent "glow-in-the-dark" ring placed over vitrectomy cannulas to visualize the cannula entry, thereby providing a smooth and efficient instrument exchange.
