Abstract

Modular hip replacement components offer numerous advantages, and the modular femoral component has become standard for contemporary total hip implants. Recent reports of mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC) at the head-neck junction, and associated adverse local tissue reactions (ALTRs), have renewed concerns for complications attributed to modularity. This manuscript describes the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment options for MACC and highlights how appropriate pre-revision evaluation and planning, in conjunction with meticulous surgical technique, should be followed to avoid complications and achieve optimal surgical outcomes. Future directions for research include biomechanical, clinical, and retrieval studies.

Follow-up manuscript to 2012 Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery study describing diagnosis and management of mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC). The cohort has a majority of total hips of one vendor but describes the diagnosis in various designs and vendors. The authors show that in the short term a cobalt alloy stem that is well fixed may be left in place and revising the femoral head to a titanium sleeve and ceramic femoral head leads to a significant decrease in serum cobalt levels.

Proximale Humerusfraktur: Auch 100-Jährige operieren?

01.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Mit dem demographischen Wandel versorgt auch die Chirurgie immer mehr betagte Menschen. Von Entwicklungen wie Fast-Track können auch ältere Menschen profitieren und bei proximaler Humerusfraktur können selbst manche 100-Jährige noch sicher operiert werden.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

30.04.2024 Gendermedizin Nachrichten

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

26.04.2024 Hüft-TEP Nachrichten

Ob bei einer Notfalloperation nach Schenkelhalsfraktur eine Hemiarthroplastik oder eine totale Endoprothese (TEP) eingebaut wird, sollte nicht allein vom Alter der Patientinnen und Patienten abhängen. Auch über 90-Jährige können von der TEP profitieren.
