Are all cases of floating hip the same? Further understanding of floating hip.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord
December 2024
Department of Orthopaedics Surgery, Shandong Provincial Hospital affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, Jinan, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Floating hip is a severe high-energy injury. Femoral fracture is an essential component of floating hip. However, few studies have addressed the relationship between the femoral fracture pattern and floating hip injury.

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA.
Purpose: Static field (B) inhomogeneities present a major challenge in high-field MRI. Multicoil shimming using independent, local, direct-current (DC) shim coils has emerged as a powerful and flexible technique to address this issue. However, many-turn DC coils can lead to significant mutual coupling with radiofrequency (RF) coils, causing transmit field (B ) distortions and signal-to-noise ratio degradation.

Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre, Kuala Lumpur, MYS.
Article Synopsis
- Extra-articular deformities (EAD) can complicate total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by making it hard to achieve the right hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, especially in cases with multiple limb deformities.
- The case discussed involves a 66-year-old man who had a long-term deformity in his right leg from past fractures and developed knee osteoarthritis, leading to a TKA surgery.
- Robotic-assisted TKA is becoming more popular and can be more effective than traditional methods, particularly for patients with severe deformities like this one.
Ipsilateral Floating Hip and Floating Knee with Multiple Fractures - A Case Report.
J Orthop Case Rep
September 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
Article Synopsis
- Floating hip and floating knee injuries are severe, often resulting from high-velocity accidents, and demand prompt medical and orthopedic care to help the patient regain limb function.
- A case study of a 32-year-old man involved in a traffic accident showed multiple fractures, including serious injuries to his left hip and knee, leading to a staged surgical intervention and rehabilitation plan.
- The patient successfully recovered, achieving full weight-bearing ability within four months, with all fractures healed by six months and excellent functional mobility at 18 months post-injury.
Analysing the intra and interregional components of spatial accessibility gravity model to capture the level of equity in the distribution of hospital services in Italy: do they influence patient mobility?
BMC Health Serv Res
August 2024
Institute of Crystallography, National Research Council (IC-CNR), Strada Provinciale 35d, 9 - 00010 - Montelibretti, Rome, Italy.
Background: An equal distribution of hospital structures represents an important factor to achieve Universal Health Coverage. Generally, the most diffused approach to measure the potential availability to healthcare is the provider-to-population ratio based on the number of beds or professionals. However, this approach considers only the availability of resources provided at regional or local level ignoring the spatial accessibility of interregional facilities that are particularly accessed by patients living at the borders.
