Journal ArticleDOI
Metal-on-metal bearings: THE EVIDENCE SO FAR
Fares S. Haddad,R. R. Thakrar,Alister Hart,John A. Skinner,A. V. F. Nargol,J. Nolan,Harinderjit Gill,David W. Murray,Ashley W Blom,C. P. Case +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review examines the literature and contemporary presentations on current clinical dilemmas in metal-on-metal hip replacement and concludes that the use of large metal on-metal bearings in hip replacements can result in catastrophic soft-tissue reactions resulting in implant failure and associated complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudotumors in association with well-functioning metal-on-metal hip prostheses: a case-control study using three-dimensional computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
Alister Hart,Keshthra Satchithananda,Alexander D. Liddle,Shiraz A. Sabah,Donald McRobbie,Johann Henckel,Justin Cobb,John A. Skinner,Adam W.M. Mitchell +8 more
TL;DR: A periprosthetic cystic pseudotumor was diagnosed commonly with use of metal artifact reduction sequence (MARS) magnetic resonance imaging in this series of patients with a metal-on-metal hip prosthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity and specificity of blood cobalt and chromium metal ions for predicting failure of metal-on-metal hip replacement
Alister Hart,Shiraz A. Sabah,A. S. Bandi,P. Maggiore,P. Tarassoli,Barry Sampson,John A. Skinner +6 more
TL;DR: Blood metal ions had good discriminant ability to separate failed from well-functioning hip replacements, and the MHRA cut-off level of 7 ppb provides a specific test but has poor sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review: predicting and optimising response to anti-TNF therapy in Crohn's disease - algorithm for practical management.
TL;DR: Nonresponse and loss of response to anti‐TNF therapies in Crohn's disease represent significant clinical problems for which clear management guidelines are lacking.
Journal ArticleDOI
The painful metal-on-metal hip resurfacing
Alister Hart,Shiraz A. Sabah,Johann Henckel,Angus Lewis,Justin Cobb,Barry Sampson,Adam W.M. Mitchell,John A. Skinner +7 more
TL;DR: Metal artefact-reduction MRI, three-dimensional CT measurement of the position of the component and inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry analysis of cobalt and chromium levels in whole blood on 26 patients with unexplained pain following metal-on-metal resurfacing arthroplasty are carried out.
