Femoral perforation during total hip arthroplasty is a rare complication. Most of the existing literature regarding the complication involves acutely recognized perforations. We report a case of femoral component revision for a symptomatic femoral perforation 12 years after a primary cementless total hip arthroplasty. The revision allowed for intramedullary component positioning, restoration of femoral length and offset, pain relief, and functional improvement. While management of this complication is debatable, we recommend revision in order to avoid future complications and optimize patient outcomes.

Medium chained triglycerides (MCT) ketogenic diet is being extensively investigated for its neuroprotective effects against adverse effects associated with aging and neurodegenerative disorders. Aging is a common risk factor for the development of both osteoporosis and neurological disorders. Hence, suppression of aging and age-related neurodegeneration might contribute to delaying skeletal aging.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty is the preferred treatment for advanced hip osteoarthritis, yet complications like hip dislocation (0.2 %-10 %) persist due to factors such as implant design, positioning, surgical technique, and patient-specific conditions. Impingement between prosthetic components or the acetabulum and proximal femur is a primary cause of instability.

The prototype of a biomimetic multi-spiked connecting scaffold (MSC-Scaffold) represents an essential innovation in the fixation in subchondral trabecular bone of components for a new generation of entirely cementless hip resurfacing arthroplasty (RA) endoprostheses. In designing such a functional biomaterial scaffold, identifying the microstructural and mechanical properties of the host bone compromised by degenerative disease is crucial for proper post-operative functioning and long-term maintenance of the endoprosthesis components. This study aimed to explore, depending on the occurrence of obesity, changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the subchondral trabecular bone in femoral heads of osteoarthritis (OA) patients caused by the MSC-Scaffold embedding.

Cancer cachexia is a debilitating syndrome characterized by progressive weight loss, muscle wasting, and systemic inflammation. Despite the prevalence and severe consequences of cancer cachexia, effective treatments for this syndrome remain elusive. Therefore, there is a greater need for well-characterized animal models to identify novel therapeutic targets.

Background: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) procedures have become much more common in the United States in recent years, with >40,000 UKAs performed annually. However, it is estimated that 10% to 40% of UKAs fail and thus require conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In the field of total joint arthroplasty, robotic-assisted surgeries have demonstrated advantages such as better accuracy and precision of implant positioning and improved restoration of a neutral mechanical axis.
