Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a troublesome complication, and a source of frustration for the owner and the surgeon. The dislocation rate of hip prostheses in dogs is reported to range from 4 to 15%, representing the most common short-term complication. This is especially true in large and giant breed dogs, usually requiring revision surgery. With the increase in the number of THA being performed in veterinary surgery, reducing or preventing complications such as postoperative THA dislocation will be of paramount importance. The Zurich cementless dual mobility (DM) system allows impingement-free range of angulation of 80 to 132 degrees between the ceramic head and the polyether ether ketone (PEEK) cup when combined with the range of the PEEK cup in the outer metal cup. In this article, we review the use of the DM cup in THA in large and giant breed dogs, in terms of its history, biomechanics, outcomes and complications based on 105 cases.

Micromotion exceeding 150 μm at the implant-bone interface may prevent bone formation and limit fixation after cementless knee arthroplasty. Understanding the critical parameters impacting micromotion is required for optimal implant design and clinical performance. However, few studies have focused on unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).

Background: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the incidence of complications and revision surgeries between in 2 of convertible metal-back glenoid systems in total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) groups over a follow-up period of up to 5 years.
Methods: A retrospective analysis included 69 shoulders from 65 patients with primary aTSA. Patients were divided into group 1 (n = 31), receiving convertible cementless stemmed aTSA (Lima SMR) and group 2 (n = 38), receiving humeral head replacement aTSA (Arthrex, Eclipse) both with metal-back glenoid components.

Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how high femoral offset (hFO) combinations in primary cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) may contribute to aseptic femoral loosening, focusing on the effects of lateralized stems and large femoral head lengths.
- - A cohort of 2,459 THA patients was analyzed, revealing that 0.6% had aseptic loosening, with a significant presence of hFO combinations in the loosening group compared to the non-loosening group.
- - Results indicate that hFO combinations significantly increase the risk of aseptic loosening (3.7 times higher probability), suggesting a need for adjustments in postoperative protocols to promote proper stem ingrowth.

Article Synopsis
- Early aseptic loosening in uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) is primarily caused by inadequate integration of the femoral stem, often due to excessive micromotions.
- The study investigated how factors like higher femoral offset, smaller stem sizes, and obesity contribute to these micromotions, using finite element analysis on CT scans of patients.
- Results indicated that combinations of lower femoral offset, larger body weight, and smaller stem sizes significantly increased micromotion, posing a risk for improper osseointegration in patients undergoing THA.

There are still some controversies regarding the clinical use of cementless UKAs. The aim of this systematic review was to determine whether cementless medial UKA leads to similar outcomes compared to cemented medial UKA. This search was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews guidelines (PRISMA).
