Journal ArticleDOI

Morbid obesity: a significant risk factor for failure of two-stage revision total knee arthroplasty for infection.

TL;DR: Morbidly obese patients have markedly elevated risks of reinfection, reoperation, and component resection as well as poorer intermediate-term clinical outcome scores compared with nonobese patients following revision total hip arthroplasty for periprosthetic joint infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Failed Metal-on-Metal Hip Arthroplasties: A Spectrum of Clinical Presentations and Operative Findings

TL;DR: Increased awareness of the modes of failure will bring to light the potential complications particular to metal-on-metal articulations while placing these complications into the context of failures associated with all hip arthroplasties.
Patent

Femoral augments for use with knee joint prosthesis

TL;DR: In this paper, a femoral augment for use with a knee joint prosthesis is described, which includes a main body portion, an aperture formed within the main body and extending in a generally distal/proximal direction.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of porous prostheses in delayed reconstruction of total hip replacements that have failed because of infection

TL;DR: The fact that 18 per cent of the patients had a recurrent infection suggests that avoidance of the use of bone cement does not improve the rate of resolution of infection after a delayed revision operation in patients who have an infection following a total hip arthroplasty.
Journal ArticleDOI

Midterm to long-term followup of staged reimplantation for infected hip arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Based on results, the method of fixation used for the femoral component during two-stage reimplantation surgery should be based on the surgeon’s preference for fixation combined with the assessment of femoral bone stock.
