Due to femoral head-neck deformities and hip joint incongruence, patients with Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (LCPD) commonly require total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the fifth and sixth decades of life. These patients present additional challenges to arthroplasty surgeons not only because of their complicated hip anatomy but also because patients may have undergone prior operative procedures in childhood and thus present with pre-existing proximal femoral deformities. THA in LCPD patients can be associated with peri-operative complications such as fracture or nerve injury, and the rate of reoperation has been reported to be higher in the LCPD population as compared to the general population undergoing THA. Despite this, multiple case reports and studies have shown the relative long-term success of THA in patients with history of LCPD. In particular, uncemented modular stems are a commonly used implant choice in such cases. This article reviews and discusses the technical considerations for THA in patients with LCPD and highlights three such cases.

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is widely used for active, elderly patients with femoral neck fractures (FNF). Compared to THA for osteoarthritis, THA for FNF is associated with a higher incidence of dislocation and reoperation. Robotic assistance may improve component positioning and leg-length restoration in THA, but its use in FNF has not been described.

Femoral neck fractures in multiple myeloma patients are usually managed with hemiarthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty, depending on the presence of acetabular infiltration. Due to the paucity of dedicated studies, the aim of the present study is to review the clinical outcomes of hip hemiarthroplasty in patients with multiple myeloma and to review the literature regarding the outcomes and survival in these patients' subset. There were 15 patients (16 cases), with a mean age of 71.
