Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with greater blood loss than primary THA. Jehovah's Witnesses will not accept transfusions of blood or blood products and are thus at an increased risk for complications due to perioperative anemia. The purpose of this study was to report the clinical outcomes, radiographic outcomes, morbidity, and mortality of Jehovah's Witnesses who were med...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of multiple demographic and radiographic findings on the size of labral tears identified at the time of hip arthroscopy. METHODS Data were prospectively collected for patients treated with arthroscopic labral repair or debridement from February 2008 to August 2011. Preoperative radiographic and demographic data were collected ...

We evaluated the effects of conventional hand rasping and robotic milling on the clinical and radiographic results of cementless total hip arthroplasty, with the same computed tomography (CT)-based 3-dimensional preoperative planning using a ROBODOC workstation (Integrated Surgical Systems, Davis, Calif). The robotic milling group consisted of 78 hips, and the hand-rasping group 78 hips. The ra...

A total 240 hips are studied scout view routinely done patients undergoing CT KUB. morphology acetabulum assessed by measuring center edge angle (CEA), angle, depth width ...

Long-term follow-up studies on children with surgically treated developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) have shown that not only affected side progresses to premature osteoarthritis, but unaffected may also suffer from insidious or osteonecrosis. The current gait analysis study identified loading and unloading rates ground reaction forces (GRF) lower limb joint axial during gait, their correla...

Of 899 patients with sickle-cell disease, aged between 6 and 28 years, who attended clinics in the Guinea Savannah of Nigeria in 1982 and 1983, 29 had symptoms of avascular necrosis of the femoral head. This group was studied in detail. Twenty-eight patients had haemoglobin-SS electrophoretic patterns and one had haemoglobin-SC. The male to female ratio was 1 to 1.6, and most of the patients we...
