Late Anterior Prosthetic Hip Dislocation Due to Yoga.

Arthroplast Today

Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Albany Medical Center, Albany, NY, USA.

Published: April 2021

The popularity of yoga and the prevalence of total hip arthroplasty (THA) have simultaneously increased in the United States. Accordingly, one can assume that the number of THA patients practicing yoga has increased. Certain yoga poses reach the extremes of hip range of motion, potentially leaving patients vulnerable to dislocation. To date, 2 cases of late posterior prosthetic hip dislocations during yoga have been reported; however, there have been no reports of anterior prosthetic hip dislocations. We present one case of late anterior prosthetic hip dislocation during yoga in a patient who underwent THA via the direct anterior approach. Prosthetic hip dislocation during yoga may be a growing concern. We provide additional evidence in support of recommendations for THA patients to safely practice yoga.

The past several decades have seen significant advancements in joint replacement surgery for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Joint replacement procedures have become vital options for patients with severe joint damage and functional impairment. There has been an increased emphasis on personalized surgical strategies that tailor joint replacement decisions based on a patient's unique clinical characteristics and the extent of joint damage.

Introduction: Spinopelvic kinematics, reflected by the change in spinopelvic tilt (ΔSPT) from a standing position to a flexed seated position, has been associated with the risk of prosthetic impingement and hip dislocation. Some studies have suggested changes in spinopelvic mobility after total hip arthroplasty (THA), but none have explored changes in mobility in the first three months following THA using a direct anterior approach.

Hypothesis: Our hypothesis was that changes in spinopelvic mobility occur in the first 3 months postoperatively, leading to increased hip mobility and increased spinopelvic kinematic abnormalities.

The effect of prosthetic alignment on lower limb kinetics in people with a transtibial bone-anchored prosthesis: An experimental within-subject study.

Gait Posture

Department of Human Movement Sciences, Faculty of Behavioural and Movement Sciences, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and Amsterdam Movement Sciences, Amsterdam, the Netherlands; Department of Research and Development, Military Rehabilitation Centre Aardenburg, Doorn, the Netherlands.

Background: The alignment of a bone-anchored prosthesis has consequences for the external moments around the residual joints and implant, and these external moments can lead to serious negative long-term effects. A clear understanding of the relationship between transtibial prosthetic alignment and external joint and implant moment for bone-anchored prosthetic users is still lacking.

Research Question: What is the effect of systematic frontal plane prosthetic alignment changes on lower limb external joint moments in people with a transtibial bone-anchored prosthesis?

Methods: Participants underwent gait analysis on an instrumented dual belt treadmill.

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).
