The results of eleven two-stage reimplantations to salvage eleven infected total knee arthroplasties in ten women (seven with osteoarthritis and three with rheumatoid arthritis) were evaluated after an average follow-up of thirty-four months. The staged procedures included removal of all of the components of the prosthesis and all cement, then six weeks of parenteral antibiotic therapy (monitor...

Abstract Aims Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious complication of total arthroplasty. We performed retrospective cohort study to evaluate (1) the change coagulation profile in two-staged arthroplasty patients and (2) relationship between outcomes reimplantation. Method Between January 2011 December 2018, 202 PJI who were operated on with included this initially. This continued for...

A surgically treated case of the nutcracker phenomenon is reported. Severe left flank pain and gross hematuria were relieved by direct renocaval reimplantation. We proposed the diagnostic criteria of the nutcracker phenomenon causing severe flank pain and/or renal hematuria.

Shoulder arthroplasty is considered the most effective surgical procedure for endstage shoulder pain from different causes including osteoarthritis, cuff-tear arthropathy, trauma, and tumors. Although uncommon and less frequent than knee or hip periprosthetic infection, periprosthetic shoulder infection represents a devastating complication and, despite treatment, is associated with unsatisfact...

Obstruction of the distal-pelvic ureters by neoplastic or in lammatory disease poses vexing problems. Surgical interventions, such as reimplantation of the ureter with psoas hitch, Boari lap or ureteroneocystostomy will re-establish drainage of urine from the kidney [1-3]. Creation of an orthotopic sigmoid neobladder will likewise effectively correct the obstruction and prevent permanent damage...

Iatrogenic ureteric injury is a well-recognised complication of radical hysterectomy. Bilateral ureteric injuries are rare, but do pose a considerable reconstructive challenge. We searched a prospectively acquired departmental database of ureteric injuries to identify patients with bilateral ureteric injury following radical hysterectomy. Five patients suffered bilateral ureteric injury over a ...

Introduction: Case reports of parasitic teratomas exist; however, most viable ovarian dermoids reimplant into the omentum. It is rare to report a viable ovary containing a dermoid that has undergone autoamputation and reimplantation in the posterior cul-de-sac. Case Description: We report the case of a 48-year-old woman with a history of lower abdominal pain that was relieved with pain control ...
