Femoral revision of total hip arthroplasty using impacted morcellized allografts and a cemented Lubinus SP-II prosthesis (Waldemar Link GmbH & Co, Hamburg, Germany) or Charnley standard prosthesis (De Puy, Leeds, UK) was performed in patients with loss of bone stock grade II-IV according to the Endoclinic classification from first to eighth revision. We report the results from 57 hips in 56 patients, with a median of 64 months' follow-up. Modified Merle d'Aubigné-Postel postoperative scores increased significantly from preoperative to postoperative values for the Lubinus group and for the Charnley group. Few complications were seen in this follow-up period. Five stems had minor subsidence. Mechanical failures were 4% for both groups. Radiologic examinations provided evidence of frequent trabecular remodeling of the graft, especially for the Lubinus prosthesis.

Dexmedetomidine alleviates acute kidney injury in a rat model of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Department of Cardiac Surgery, Lanzhou University Second Hospital, Lanzhou University, No. 80, Cuiyingmen, Chengguan District, Lanzhou, 730030, China.
Background: Although extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an effective technique for life support, the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) during ECMO support remains high. Dexmedetomidine (DEX), which has been widely used for sedation during ECMO, possesses several properties that help reduce the occurrence of AKI. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of DEX on kidney function during ECMO.

Background: The intercondylar space is defined as the topographic area walled by the intercondylar notch (IN) and encasing the central ligaments of the knee joint. As the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is not only impinged against the roof but also against the lateral wall of the IN, information concerning changes to the IN during the progression of osteoarthritis could be potentially relevant in predicting the future risk for ACL-rupture and -degeneration and ensure preventive measures as early as possible. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of osteoarthritis on osseous notch morphology.

Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou Municipal Hospital, Gusu School, Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou, 215000, China.
Background: To analyze the effects of the positioning of a bolt in the femoral neck system (FNS) on the short-term outcomes of middle-aged and young adults with displaced femoral neck fractures (FNFs).
Methods: This was a retrospective study involving 114 middle-aged and young adults with displaced FNFs who were surgically treated with internal fixation via the FNS in the Department of Orthopedics, Suzhou Municipal Hospital, from December 2019 to January 2023. The degree of deviation of the central axis of the femoral head and neck from the tip of the bolt (W), the tip‒apex distance (TAD) and the length of femoral neck shortening (LFNS) were measured on postoperative X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scan images.

Objectives: To report outcomes after the use of the Omniflow II biosynthetic graft (LeMaitre Vascular, Il, USA) for vascular reconstruction in patients with prosthetic infection at the aorto-iliac and femoropopliteal level.
Methods: Within a six-year period, all consecutive patients with aorto-iliac and femoro-popliteal graft infection treated by resection of the infected graft material, extensive local debridement and reconstruction using Omniflow II biosynthetic graft were retrospectively analzyed. Patient characteristics, intraoperative details, postoperative outcomes, and infection details were assessed.

Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, Rochester, MI; Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital, Royal Oak, MI. Electronic address:
Background: Hip instability following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is among the most common indications for revision surgery. The implantation of dual-mobility (DM) systems, designed to improve stability, continues to rise, and thus, characterizing in vivo implant damage modes is paramount.
Methods: Under an implant retrieval protocol, 51 DM THA systems were analyzed.
