Background And Purpose: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of RSA studies to investigate the early and long-term migration patterns of acetabular cups and the influence of implant factors on cup migration over time.

Methods: We performed a systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases to identify all RSA studies of cup migration following primary total hip replacement (THR). Proximal migration at 3 and 6 months, 1, 2, 5, and 10 years were considered for analysis. Implant factors investigated included fixation type, head size, bearing surface, uncemented coating design, and the decade of RSA introduction.

Results: 47 studies reported the proximal migration of 83 cohorts (2,328 cups). Besides 1 threaded cup design, no implant factor investigated was found to significantly influence proximal migration. The mean pooled 2-year proximal migration of cemented cups (0.14 mm, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.08-0.20) was not significantly different from uncemented cups (0.12 mm, CI 0.04-0.19). The mean pooled proximal migration at 6 months was 0.11 mm (CI 0.06-0.16) and there was no significant increase between 6 months and 2 years (0.015 mm, CI 0.000-0.030). 27 of 75 cohorts (36%) reported mean proximal migration greater than 0.2 mm at 2 years, which has previously been identified as a predictor of implants at risk of long-term loosening.

Conclusion: Our meta-analysis demonstrated that the majority of cup migration occurs within the first 6 months. With one exception, no implant factors influenced the 2-year proximal migration of acetabular cups. 36% of studies with 2-year migration were considered at risk of long-term loosening. Further investigation and comparison against long-term survivorship data would validate 6-month and/or 1-year proximal migration measurements as an earlier predictor of long-term loosening than the current 2-year threshold.

In this article, we present an exceptionally rare and challenging clinical case. It concerns a 65-year-old woman who, while eating, accidentally ingested a thorn. This foreign body, after being swallowed, migrated from the proximal esophagus, until it penetrated the left internal jugular vein.

Introduction And Importance: A traumatic arteriovenous fistula (TAVF) is a vascular injury where an artery and a vein become abnormally connected. Although endovascular intervention is often the first choice for TAVF, some special cases still require open surgery.

Case Presentation: A 65-year-old man developed a chronic AVF in the lower superficial femoral artery (SFA) one year after a farming accident.

Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has become a favoured alternative to surgical carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in select cases of critical internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion. However, complications such as stent migration or entrapment can occur, necessitating prompt diagnosis and intervention. We present a case of a 75-year-old diabetic male who underwent CAS for recurrent presyncope at a private hospital, and during the procedure of CAS the stent was migrated and its proximal part was impacted in the critically narrowed part of the ICA.

Catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase ζ (REV3), involved in translesion-replication is evolutionarily conserved from yeast and plants to higher eukaryotes. However, a large intermediate domain is inserted in REV3 of humans and mice. The domain has "DUF4683" region, which is significantly similar to human neurite extension and migration factor (NEXMIF).

Gallstone ileus (GSI) is a rare complication of gallstone disease. It occurs as a result of the passage of a stone from the biliary tract into the gastrointestinal tract via an abnormal pathway (bilio-enteric fistula). Chronic inflammatory processes result in gall bladder adhering and subsequently eroding into the intestines, leading to a fistula.
