Long-Term Outcomes of Cementless Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty in Young Patients With Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: The Impact of Implant Improvements and Preoperative Stage.

Introduction Advancements in bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) implants in the mid-1990s contributed to favorable short-term outcomes for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), particularly in cases without acetabular cartilage lesions. Nevertheless, long-term results remain unclear. In this study, we investigated (i) the impact of new-generation BHA implants and (ii) the effect of the preoperative stage on long-term outcomes in young patients with ONFH.

Isolated Septic Arthritis of the Hip Due to Fusobacterium Nucleatum in An Immunocompetent Adult: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Introduction: Hip septic arthritis is more common in children than in adults. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus spp. are commonly found in association with septic joints.

Multi-Site Insufficiency Pelvic Fracture Following Total Hip Arthroplasty.

BACKGROUND The indication of total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been increasing among older and more frail patients who possibly have suboptimal bone quality. Pelvic insufficiency fractures (PIF) are rarely observed after THA. The appropriate diagnosis of fracture location is crucial, but its symptoms are non-specific and radiographic abnormality is often subtle; thus, diagnosis can be challenging, particularly in case of concomitant fractures at multiple locations.
