Peri-implant distal radius fracture due to car collision.

Peri-implant fractures have gained increasing importance in orthopedics as the number of surgical procedures involving orthopedic implants rises globally. These fractures pose a significant challenge in terms of diagnosis, treatment, and postoperative management. They manifest as stress fractures distal to the implant site.

A Retrospective analysis of peri-implant fractures: insights from a large volume clinical Study.

Purpose: Peri-implant fractures (PIFs) are a concept in evolution for which different diagnostic criteria have been proposed and modified over time. They have not been extensively reported. PIFs are usually located in the distal part of previous osteosynthesis, where fragile bone is in contact with the rigid implant and are a significant complication after orthopaedic surgery, which requires careful management and treatment.

An original method of simulating the articular cartilage in the context of biomechanical studies investigating the proximal femur.

Biomechanical testing is a necessity given the development of novel implants used in the osteosynthesis of hip fractures. The purpose of biomechanical testing is to recreate realistic conditions similar to the conditions. Although biomechanical testing of hip arthroplasty has been standardized since the 1970s, there is no consensus at present on testing methodology for osteosynthesis of hip fractures.
