Fully porous-coated cementless implants have a low failure rate and excellent survivorship in primary and revision surgery. Failure secondary to implant fracture is extremely rare with modern implant designs. We report an early fracture of a fully porous-coated femoral stem after primary total hip arthroplasty. The implant failed because of a filling mismatch between the proximal and distal femur.

Uncontrollable non-compressible hemorrhage and traumatic infection have been major causes of mortality and disability in both civilian and military populations. A dressing designed for point-of-care control of non-compressible hemorrhage and prevention of traumatic infections represents an urgent medical need. Here, a novel self-gelling sponge OHN@ε-pL is developed, integrating N-succinimidyl ester oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHN) and ε-poly-L-lysine (ε-pL).

Short-stem total hip arthroplasty (SHA) has become popular because it preserves femoral bone stock and enables the use of short femoral stems in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, no study has evaluated whether a short stem in revision THA, replacing a standard stem, can provide adequate primary stability to facilitate osseous integration. In this biomechanical study, a metaphyseal anchoring SHA (Tri-Lock BPS) stem and a standard THA (Corail) stem were implanted into ten composite femurs and loaded dynamically from 300 to 1700 N with 1 Hz.

Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance between bone resorption and formation, which decreases bone mass and strength and increases the risk of fracture. Therefore, osteoporosis is treated with oral resorption inhibitors, such as bisphosphonates, and parenteral osteogenic drugs, including parathyroid hormone and antisclerostin antibodies. However, orally active osteogenic drugs have not yet been developed.

Background: Improvements in cementless total hip arthroplasty have been directed at optimizing osseointegration of the femoral implant to reduce aseptic loosening rates. Stem design plays a critical role in the performance of these implants. Given the increase in new stem designs and the creation of an updated classification system, improved understanding of the outcomes of each stem type is warranted.
