Background: Robotic-assistance total hip arthroplasty (RA-THA) and computer navigation THA (CN-THA) have been shown to improve accuracy of component positioning compared to manual techniques; however, controversy exists regarding clinical benefit. Moreover, these technologies may expose patients to risks. The purpose of this study is to compare rates of intraoperative fracture and complications requiring reoperation within 1 year for posterior approach RA-THA, CN-THA, and THA with no technology (Manual-THA).
Methods: In total, 13,802 primary, unilateral, elective, posterior approach THAs (1770 RA-THAs, 3155 CN-THAs, and 8877 Manual-THAs) were performed at a single institution between 2016 and 2020. Intraoperative fractures and reoperations within 1 year of the index procedure were identified. Cohorts were balanced using inverse probability of treatment weight based on age, gender, body mass index, femoral cementation, history of spine fusion, and Charlson Comorbidity Index. Logistic regression was performed to create odds ratios for complications. Additional regression analysis for dislocation was performed, adjusting for dual mobility and femoral head size.
Results: There were no differences in intraoperative fracture and postoperative complication rates between the groups (P = .521). RA-THA had a 0.3 odds ratio (95% confidence interval 0.1-0.9, P = .046) compared to Manual-THA for reoperation due to dislocation. CN-THA had an odds ratio of 3.0 for reoperation due to dislocation (95% confidence interval 0.8-11.3, P = .114) compared to RA-THA. The remaining complication odds ratios, including those for infection, loosening, dehiscence, and "other" were similar between the groups.
Conclusion: RA-THA is associated with lower risk of revision for dislocation within 1 year of index surgery, when compared to Manual-THA performed through the posterior approach.

Pulmonary arterial intimal sarcoma (PAIS) is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor often associated with an unfavorable prognosis and lacks a standardized treatment approach to date. This report presents a notable case of PAIS treated with neoadjuvant therapy involving anlotinib concomitantly administered with chemotherapy of ifosfamide and pirarubicin, which resulted in a favorable outcome. A 38-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with chest tightness, cough, and dyspnea, all of which had persisted for more than a week.

Bayesian boundary condition (BC) calibration approaches from clinical measurements have successfully quantified inherent uncertainties in cardiovascular fluid dynamics simulations. However, estimating the posterior distribution for all BC parameters in three-dimensional (3D) simulations has been unattainable due to infeasible computational demand. We propose an efficient method to identify Windkessel parameter posteriors: We only evaluate the 3D model once for an initial choice of BCs and use the result to create a highly accurate zero-dimensional (0D) surrogate.

Study DesignRetrospective Cohort Study.ObjectiveIsthmic spondylolisthesis is frequently encountered in spine surgical practice, though there is a significant variation in surgical management strategies. We sought to evaluate revision rates between patients who underwent anterior-approach lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) alone, posterolateral fusion (PLF) alone, PLIF/TLIF, and ALIF+PSF.

Pelvic girdle pain (PGP) is described in the literature as a subgroup of low back pain (LBP), characterized by pain localized between the posterior iliac crest and the gluteal fold, particularly near the sacroiliac joints. This condition can manifest in different forms non-specific PGP, occurring during pregnancy or postpartum (pregnancy-related PGP), which represents the most prevalent form and non-pregnancy-related PGP, resulting from mechanical alterations caused by trauma or microtrauma. Specific PGP, associated with identifiable causes such as fractures, infections, or arthritis.

Background: This study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of the hip pericapsular nerve block (hip-PNB), which combines the anterior pericapsular nerve group (PENG) and posterior pericapsular deep-gluteal (PPD) blocks, on postoperative pain and functional outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA) via the posterolateral approach.
Methods: Seventy patients undergoing THA were allocated to either the nerve block group (Group N, hip-PNB + sham local infiltration analgesia [LIA]) or the control group (Group C, sham hip-PNB + LIA). The primary outcome was cumulative morphine consumption in the first 24 h postoperatively.
