چکیده
We describe a patient who sustained a peri-prosthetic fracture of the femoral neck two weeks after undergoing a resurfacing procedure for osteoarthritis of the hip. The fracture was minimally displaced and a satisfactory outcome was obtained following conservative treatment.

Fixation of a Periprosthetic Intertrochanteric Hip Fracture below a Birmingham Hip Resurfacing
This case report involves a 56-year-old female (Mrs X) with a traumatic intertrochanteric hip fracture with subtrochanteric extension below a previous Birmingham hip resurfacing. Periprosthetic fractures following hip resurfacing are usually subcapital and treated with a revision or conservative management. We present an unusual surgical problem with an interesting solution stabilising the frac...
متن کاملFemoral neck fractures complicating metal-on-metal resurfaced hips: a report of 2 cases.
Metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty is increasingly popular for younger patients with advanced hip disease. Intra-operative or immediate postoperative femoral neck fracture after metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is a well-described technical complication, ranging from 0% to 1.5%. We report 2 cases of late femoral neck fracture occurring 8 and 15 months following the index operation, with ...
متن کامل"Tripolar" hip arthroplasty for failed hip resurfacing: nineteen years follow-up.
The authors describe the case of a 37-year-old patient who sustained a subcapital femoral neck fracture six months after ICLH double-cup hip resurfacing. As the polyethylene acetabular resurfacing component was undamaged and well fixed, a standard femoral stem with a bipolar head was inserted. The outer diameter of the bipolar head was chosen to fit the resurfacing socket. The "tripolar" hip ar...
متن کاملBlood and urine metal ion levels in young and active patients after Birmingham hip resurfacing arthroplasty: four-year results of a prospective longitudinal study.
This is a longitudinal study of the daily urinary output and the concentrations in whole blood of cobalt and chromium in patients with metal-on-metal resurfacings over a period of four years. Twelve-hour urine collections and whole blood specimens were collected before and periodically after a Birmingham hip resurfacing in 26 patients. All ion analyses were carried out using a high-resolution i...
متن کاملEarly failure of metal-on-metal bearings in hip resurfacing and large-diameter total hip replacement: A consequence of excess wear.
Early failure associated with adverse reactions to metal debris is an emerging problem after hip resurfacing but the exact mechanism is unclear. We analysed our entire series of 660 metal-on-metal resurfacings (Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) and Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR)) and large-bearing ASR total hip replacements, to establish associations with metal debris-related failures. Clin...
