A 61-year-old man presented with pain at the left hip and decreased mobility 10 years after total hip replacement. Imaging demonstrated a large destructive expansile mass adjacent to the prosthesis. Histological analysis confirmed the presence of an extra-cranial meningioma. Primary tumours after total hip replacement are rare and include soft tissue sarcomas, bone sarcomas and lymphomas. To our knowledge, no previous cases of primary extracranial meningioma have been identified. The imaging features, histology, pathogenesis and differential diagnosis are discussed.

The clinical frailty scale is associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications and the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in elderly patients with trimalleolar ankle fractures - a retrospective study.
J Orthop Surg Res

Department of Orthopedics, Pidu District People's Hospital, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College, Chengdu, 611730, China.
Background: The Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) is a tool to assess the overall health of older adults. There are few reports of CFS and prognosis of ankle fracture. The objective of this study was to determine the predictive power of the CFS for adverse clinical and radiographic outcomes after surgery in elderly patients with trimalleolar fractures.

Background: Current guidelines recommend shared decision-making in the treatment of hip and knee osteoarthritis, but the impact of individual treatment decisions on patient satisfaction scores is unknown. We hypothesized that clinic Press Ganey satisfaction ratings would be higher for patients who later underwent arthroplasty than patients who did not have surgery.
Methods: Press Ganey satisfaction surveys were obtained from all patient visits at a single academic institution's arthroplasty clinic from 2010 to 2018.
Obesity phenotypes and dyslipidemia in adults from four African countries: An H3Africa AWI-Gen study.

Introduction: The contribution of obesity phenotypes to dyslipidaemia in middle-aged adults from four sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries at different stages of the epidemiological transition has not been reported. We characterized lipid levels and investigated their relation with the growing burden of obesity in SSA countries.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa.
Patient and physical therapists' views on physical rehabilitation exercise in the early phase after total hip arthroplasty: a qualitative interview study.
Disabil Rehabil
January 2025
National Institute of Public Health, University of Southern Denmark, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Purpose: Physical rehabilitation exercises (PRE) are commonly prescribed early after total hip arthroplasty (THA), but the fundamental effectiveness of PRE has been questioned. As little is known about stakeholder perceptions of PRE, the aim was to explore patients' and physical therapists' perceptions of using PRE in the early period after THA.
Methods: A qualitative interview study was conducted.
Mechanical Considerations and Clinical Implications of Joint Arthroplasty Metallosis.

The treatment for osteoarthritis (OA) often requires total joint arthroplasty (TJA) when less invasive approaches fail. The annual incidence of TJA is rising. Metal-on-metal (MoM) hip and knee implants were widely used for TJA in the past, but complications have led to their decline.
