Fistula formation between bowel and total hip arthroplasty or revision arthroplasty hardware is rare. We present a case of a 78-year-old woman with protrusio of left hip arthroplasty and acetabular reconstruction hardware that caused direct perforation of the sigmoid colon and fistula formation between the sigmoid colon and the left hip joint. The patient underwent several joint debridements, sigmoid colectomy, and removal of all orthopedic hardware; she ultimately died after two prolonged hospitalizations.

Is low-value care for persistent musculoskeletal pain more common in rural than urban areas? A scoping review.
BMC Health Serv Res
January 2025
The University of Sydney, Faculty of Medicine and Health, School of Rural Health, Orange, NSW, 2800, Australia.
Background: Low-value care refers to the provision of health services that confer little or no benefit to patients, or have the potential to incur unwarranted harms. A breadth of literature exists investigating geographical variations in rates of potential low-value interventions for musculoskeletal pain. This scoping review aimed to examine the provision of low-value care for osteoarthritis and lower back pain by degree of rurality (e.

Introduction: Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has shown excellent results in the treatment of osteoarthritis, and its indications have now been extended to younger patients of working age. Few articles in the literature have studied the return to work of young subjects, and no specific studies have been conducted in France. Therefore, we carried out a retrospective study to 1) investigate the rate and delay of return to work after primary TKA in a population under 55 years of age and 2) identify factors influencing early return to work before 3 months, the period usually used as the duration of initial work stoppage (TS).

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) practices are evolving under the influence of the current value-based healthcare system and bundled payment models. This study aimed to (1) evaluate national trends in discharge disposition and postoperative outcomes after THA, (2) compare discharge cohorts on episode-of-care parameters, and (3) determine predictors of nonhome discharge from 2011 to 2021.
Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for THA data from 2011 to 2021.
Direct anterior and direct lateral approach in patients with femoral neck fractures receiving a total hip arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial.
Acta Orthop

Background And Purpose: The optimal approach to the hip joint in patients with displaced femoral neck fractures (dFNF) receiving a total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains controversial. We compared the direct lateral approach (DLA) with the direct anterior approach (DAA) primarily on Timed Up and Go (TUG), and secondarily on the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS), the Oxford Hip Score (OHS), EQ5D-5L, and the EQ5D-VAS.
Methods: Between 2018 and 2023, we conducted a randomized controlled trial including elderly patients with dFNFs treated with THA.
Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of a Norwegian version of the Goodman Satisfaction Score (GSS-NO) for patients with total hip and knee arthroplasty.

Department of Surgery, Lovisenberg Diaconal Hospital, Oslo; Department of Public Health Science, Institute of Health and Society, Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.
Background And Purpose: Measuring patient satisfaction after total hip (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is important. We aimed to cross-culturally adapt and examine the psychometric properties of the self-reported Goodman Satisfaction Score (GSS) in a sample of Norwegian patients following primary THA and TKA.
Methods: The GSS was translated and adapted into Norwegian (GSS-NO) following standard guidelines.
