Estimation of efficiency of hip joint capsule cut fixation with polypropylene mesh

Hip Joint Replacement Using Monofilament Polypropylene Surgical Mesh: An Animal Model

Hip joint dysplasia is a deformation of the articular elements (pelvic acetabulum, head of the femur, and/or ligament of the head of the femur) leading to laxity of the hip components and dislocation of the femoral head from the pelvic acetabulum. Diagnosis is based on symptoms observed during clinical and radiological examinations. There are two treatment options: conservative and surgical. Th...

assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...

Biomechanical Properties of Synthetic Mesh Reconstructed Glenohumeral Joint Capsule

The proximal hip joint capsule and the zona orbicularis contribute to hip joint stability in distraction.

The structure and function of the proximal hip joint capsule and the zona orbicularis are poorly understood. We hypothesized that the zona orbicularis is an important contributor to hip stability in distraction. In seven cadaveric hip specimens from seven male donors we distracted the femur from the acetabulum in a direction parallel to the femoral shaft with the hip in the neutral position. Ei...

The Role of Fibrin Glue Polypropylene Mesh Fixation in Open Inguinal Hernia Repair

UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to compare two methods of polypropylene mesh fixation for inguinal hernia repair according to Lichtenstein using fibrin glue and suture fixation. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 60 patients with unilateral inguinal hernia, divided into two groups of 30 patients--Suture fixation and fibrin glue fixation. All patients were analyzed according to: age,...
