The secondary injury may present weeks to months after the initial insult and repeat bronchoscopy, and long-term follow-up is required for the respiratory complications of CSI.Ingestion of caustic fluid may cause severe tracheal stenosis. Repeated airway dilatation may be a lifesaving intervention until such point that surgery can be performed.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the Modular Dual Mobility (MDM) hip system and large femoral heads (LFHs) in revision total hip arthroplasties (THAs), focusing on risks like dislocation and metal-related complications.
  • Researchers analyzed 299 revision THAs and found that the MDM group had a significantly lower rate of re-revision for dislocation (99% survival) compared to the LFH group (91% survival), with increased risks for LFH patients.
  • Overall, THAs utilizing the MDM construct demonstrated a safer profile, particularly in reducing re-revisions related to dislocation and had no reported issues with metallosis or corrosion.
