Canadian academic experience with metal-on-metal hip resurfacing.
The current depth and breadth of experience in hip resurfacing in Canadian academic centers is not well known. This study endeavors to increase awareness of the prevalence of programs and current experience in a select number of representative teaching centers by examining the learning curve of high-volume surgeons. A questionnaire was sent to all academic centers in Canada to identify the volu...
متن کاملThe painful metal-on-metal hip resurfacing.
We carried out metal artefact-reduction MRI, three-dimensional CT measurement of the position of the component and inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry analysis of cobalt and chromium levels in whole blood on 26 patients with unexplained pain following metal-on-metal resurfacing arthroplasty. MRI showed periprosthetic lesions around 16 hips, with 14 collections of fluid and two soft-tis...
متن کاملPseudotumours associated with metal-on-metal hip resurfacing: 10-year Newcastle experience.
We report the incidence of pseudotumours in a single-surgeon consecutive series of 670 metal-on-metal hip resurfacings performed in the last ten years, with a minimum follow-up of one year. Two cases of pseudotumours have been found and are discussed in detail including metrology and wear analyses of the explanted components. The first was a painless, large synovial cyst in the thigh, secondary...
متن کاملWear of highly crosslinked polyethylene acetabular components
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Wear rates of highly crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) acetabular components have varied considerably between different published studies. This variation is in part due to the different techniques used to measure wear and to the errors inherent in measuring the relatively low amounts of wear in XLPE bearings. We undertook a scoping review of studies that have examined the i...
متن کاملShort-term clinical experience with hip resurfacing arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND This paper discusses the authors' experience with hip resurfacing arthroplasty. Although introduced many years ago, the method did not gain wide popularity because of poor long-term outcomes. At present, owing to the introduction of metal-on-metal bearings and hybrid fixation techniques, short- and mid-term results are very good and encourage wider use of this technique, especially i...
