Acetabular bone loss, and specifically when it is associated with a chronic pelvic discontinuity, presents a difficult clinical challenge at the time of revision total hip arthroplasty. Most centers have advocated the use of noncemented constructs in an effort to achieve biologic fixation. The authors prefer noncemented fixation with use of the acetabular distraction technique in conjunction with modular porous metal augments for the treatment of severe acetabular bone loss and an associated chronic pelvic discontinuity.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to determine what demographic and anatomical variables affect successful placement of a superior medullary ramus screw, and how they affect the maximal diameter of that screw.

Methods: Design: Prognostic Level IV SETTING: Level I Trauma Center Patients/Participants: Two hundred consecutive patients underwent computed tomography (CT) of the pelvis. We included those patients aged 18 and older without osseous injury or abnormalities precluding measurement.

: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), defined by the malalignment of the femoral head and acetabulum, is a major precursor to coxarthrosis, posing substantial challenges during total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patients with coxarthrosis secondary to DDH often exhibit acetabular bone insufficiency, which makes challenging surgical reconstruction difficult. This study aimed to compare the radiologic and functional outcomes of robotically assisted and conventional manual THA techniques in patients with coxarthrosis secondary to Crowe type III-IV DDH.

Background: Pelvic ring and acetabular fractures are among the most complicated and severe injury patterns in orthopaedic trauma surgery. Inpatient treatment is not only costly but also very time-consuming. The aim of this study is to identify predictors leading to a prolonged length of hospital stay.

Skeletal Site-Specific Lipid Profile and Hematopoietic Progenitors of Bone Marrow Adipose Tissue in Patients Undergoing Primary Hip Arthroplasty.

Metabolites

Group for Hematology and Stem Cells, Institute for Medical Research, National Institute of Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia.

Background/objectives: Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) has been described as an important biomechanic and lipotoxic factor with negative impacts on skeletal and hematopoietic system regeneration. BMAT undergoes metabolic and cellular adaptations with age and disease, being a source of potential biomarkers. However, there is no evidence on the lipid profile and cellularity at different skeletal locations in osteoarthritis patients undergoing primary hip arthroplasty.
