2. 1. Fixation of the cemented acetabular component in hip arthroplasty

   Author : Gunnar Flivik; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; orthopaedics; reumatologi; Surgery; Skelett; muscle system; rheumatology locomotion; Skeleton; Cement pressurization; Cement penetration; Acetabulum; Cancellous bone; muskelsystem; Total hip arthroplasty; RSA;

   Abstract : In total hip arthroplasty cemented fixation of the acetabular component is a generally successful concept, but the rate of aseptic loosening and consequent revision surgery is still too high. One of the crucial factors for longterm implant survival is the initial fixation and stability. READ MORE

5. 3. Aspects on treatment of femoral neck fractures : studies on treatment methods, surgical approach and external validity

   Author : Sebastian Mukka; Arkan Sayed-Noor; Olof Sköldenberg; Lasse Lapidus; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip fracture; femoral neck fracture; treatment; total hip arthroplasty; hemiarthroplasty; internal fixation; surgical approach; outcome; dislocation; femoral offset; leg length discrepancy; external validity; ortopedi; Orthopaedics;

   Abstract : Femoral neck fracture (FNF) is a great challenge for today´s health care and is associated with high mortality and morbidity in the elderly.  In the short term several studies in the literature have demonstrated improved hip function, quality of life and fewer re-operations in elderly patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) instead of internal fixation (IF).

6. 4. Displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly : treatment with arthroplasties

   Author : Christian Inngul; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly with arthroplasties has become standard practice during the last decade and results in good and predictable outcomes regarding hip function and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). There is, however, a lack of evidence concerning certain types of arthroplasties and different subgroups of patients. READ MORE

7. 5. Dynamic ultrasonography in neonatal hip instability and acetabular dysplasia

   Author : Thröstur Finnbogason; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The clinical hip examination, although highly sensitive in expert hands in detecting neonatal hip instability, can lead to considerable overtreatment. Ultrasound is increasingly being used to complement the clinical examination in assessing neonatal hip instability and acetabular dysplasia, often leading to increased treatment rate. READ MORE
