Arthroplast Today
December 2024
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, New York Presbyterian Hospital, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, NY, USA.
Background: Routine patellar resurfacing remains controversial in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study reports the experience of a high-volume arthroplasty surgeon who stopped routinely resurfacing patellae for a 3-year period.
Methods: All primary TKAs performed by a single surgeon between January 2018 and September 2022 with minimum 1-year follow-up were retrospectively reviewed.

Article Synopsis
- The InSpace subacromial balloon spacer is designed to treat massive irreparable rotator cuff tears by limiting shoulder pain and improving function.
- There is ongoing debate about its effectiveness due to conflicting results from two randomized controlled trials, leading to low usage rates among surgeons in Europe and Latin America.
- The balloon may be particularly beneficial for older patients with severe co-morbidities, as it offers a quicker recovery and shorter surgical time compared to other treatment options.
Long-term survival of resurfacing humeral hemiarthroplasty.

August 2024
Department of Orthopaedics, Traumatology and Hand Surgery, Kuopio University Hospital, P.O. Box 1777, 70211, Kuopio, Finland.
Introduction: The indication for shoulder resurfacing arthroplasty is controversial, and survival of these implants is somewhat inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term survivorship of resurfacing humeral head implants (RHHIs) and determine risk factors for complications and revisions.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study consisted of 275 cases and two types of RHHIs.
Minimum 15-Year Survival of a Biconvex Inlay Patellar Component in Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty: An Analysis of 2,530 Total Knee Arthroplasties From a Single Institution.

Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Department of Surgery, Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, Western University and London Health Science Centre, London, Ontario, Canada.
Background: Routine patellar resurfacing during primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial. To our knowledge, there are no studies reporting the long-term performance of a cemented biconvex all-polyethylene inlay component implanted at the time of primary TKA. The purpose of this study was to examine the 15-year survivorship and long-term clinical outcomes of this biconvex inlay patella used at our institution.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFHip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) has been advocated as an attractive therapy for a younger, more demanding patient population with debilitating hip osteoarthritis. Controversies surrounding metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing have, however, led to a significant decline in the popularity of the HRA. Despite this, substantial evidence supports the use of specific implants in a selected group of patients.
