Reattachment of the Osteotomized Greater Trochanter in Hip Surgery Using an Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene Fiber Cable: A Multi-Institutional Study
The purpose of this multicenter study was to evaluate the clinical performance of an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber cable for re-attachment of the osteotomized greater trochanter in hip surgery. Included in the study were 85 hips that had undergone surgery with greater trochanter osteotomy, including 50 hip arthroplasty procedures and 35 hip osteotomies. The osteotomized...
متن کاملReattachment of the greater trochanter after hip replacement.
A method of performing a biplanar intracapsular trochanteric osteotomy with a Gigli saw was designed and tested prospectively in 431 cases of Charnley low friction arthroplasty. Three methods of trochanteric reattachment were tested, and a double cross-over wire with a compression spring was best; this method was successful in 222 out of 226 patients (98.2%), of which half were revision operati...
متن کاملEvaluation of the clinical performance of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene fiber cable using a dog osteosynthesis model.
The purpose of this study was to assess the removability and biological reactivity of an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber cable as a new biomaterial for osteosynthesis. We used a pull-out test and an implantation test to analyze the performance of the UHMWPE fiber cable using a dog model, and compared its characteristics with those of a wire cable and a soft wire. In the p...
متن کاملAvulsion of the greater trochanter and craniodorsal luxation of the hip joint in a cat: importance of precise radiographic evaluation
A traumatic coxofemoral luxation was diagnosed in a 15-month-old European neutered male cat, and on the basis of the radiographic evaluation a closed reduction was performed. Consequently, the cat was presented at the University of Bologna because of the failure of the treatment. A supplementary radiographic exam revealed the concomitant avulsion of the greater trochanter, consequently surgical...
