Acetabular implant revision is commonly performed during revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). With recent significant increase in the utilization of direct anterior approach for primary THA, many surgeons familiar with this approach are exploring the direct anterior for revision THA (r-THA) applications. This chapter will specifically address acetabular implant revision via direct anterior approach. The exposure techniques for the acetabulum are described elsewhere in this lecture series. Instead, attention to the mechanics and techniques of acetabular implant revision via direct anterior approach will be stressed.

Long-term follow-up of posterior implant restorations showing under-occlusion: a superimposition analysis of dentition change.
J Adv Prosthodont

Under-occlusion ('infraocclusion' as defined in the natural teeth) after implant restoration in the posterior area is commonly encountered in clinical practice; however, it has rarely been reported. Most importantly, the under-occlusion change mechanism remains unknown. The purpose of this case report was to analyze how the dentition of both arches changed in a patient, including teeth tilting, elongation and occlusal plane change with under-occlusion of the posterior implant restoration after long-term function.

Background: To evaluate the role of ultrasound (US) in the assessment of the airway and to determine whether US has the potential to serve as effective, noninvasive and less time-consuming method for the diagnosis of difficult intubation in ICU patients.
Patients And Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried in 152 critically ill patients who underwent intubation in the ICU from December 2022 to April 2024. Prior to intubation thyromental height (TMH) and hyomental distance ratio (HMD-R) was measured using a scale and distance from skin to hyoid bone (SHB) and distance from skin to thyrohyoid membrane (STM) was measured using a US.
Iris retractor-assisted optic capture of a 3-piece intraocular lens.

Optic capture of a three-piece lens in the absence of posterior capsule support is an effective strategy for stabilizing and sequestering the optic to reduce the risk of dislocation and UGH syndrome compared to sulcus placement. We present a novel technique that facilitates optic capture in the presence of a contracted, fibrotic rhexis opening, while minimizing stress on the zonules by using iris retractors to assist in stabilization and expansion of the rhexis, followed by direct injection of the optic of the lens behind the anterior capsule opening into an optic captured configuration.

Background: Breast Implant Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a haematological malignancy which may occur in patients with textured breast implant history. While typically diagnosed at an early stage with good prognosis, it may present with local residual disease due to incomplete surgical excision.
Case Presentation: We describe the case of a 42 year-old woman with a history of bilateral breast augmentation for cosmetic purposes 21 years prior, who developed recurring seroma of the left side.
Background: Sequential soft tissue releases are utilized in direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) as incomplete femoral exposure may lead to complications. This study identifies patient-specific parameters associated with soft tissue releases required for femoral exposure.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 133 patients (150 hips) who underwent primary THA via DAA with a single surgeon.
