Biomechanical modeling of acetabular component polyethylene stresses, fracture risk, and wear rate following press-fit implantation.

30 Oct 2009 Press-fit implantation may result in acetabular component deformation between the ischial-ilial columns ("pinching"). The biomechanical and clinical consequences of liner pinching due to press-fit implantation have not been well studied. We compared ... Read more...

A meta-analysis of design- and manufacturing-related parameters influencing the wear behavior of metal-on-metal hip joint replacements.

30 Oct 2009 This article aims to clarify the influence of design- and manufacturing-related parameters on wear of metal-on-metal (MoM) joint bearings. A database search for publications on wear simulator studies of MoM bearings was performed. The results of ... Read more...

Prophylactic antibiotics in hip and knee arthroplasty.

29 Sep 2009 Prophylactic parenteral antibiotics have contributed to the present low rate of surgical site infections following hip and knee arthroplasty. Over the past decade, there has been a change in the pattern of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ... Read more...
