چکیده
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of SPECT/CT arthrography in patients with suspected aseptic prosthesis loosening following hip and knee arthroplasty. Methods A retrospective review 63 arthrogram studies (36 knees 27 hips) between February 1, 2013, July 2018, was conducted. All underwent clinical radiologic evaluation as part their assessment for persistent pain The detection tracer activity along bone-prosthetic interface on suggests loosening. Operative well clinical/radiologic follow-up at a minimum 1 year used reference standard. Results sensitivity specificity 6/7 (86%) 55/56 (98%), respectively. This gives positive predictive value (PPV) (86%), negative (NPV) 61/63 (97%). Conclusion has high (97%) both arthroplasties post-procedural pain.

Evaluation of the accuracy of physicians’ diagnostic performances in patients with suspected acute appendicitis
Introduction: With a prevalence rate of 7-8 percent, acute appendicitis is one of the most common public surgical emergencies worldwide. Given the complications of this disease because of lack of medical diagnosis and not on-time arrival of patients, this study evaluated the diagnostic performance of physicians (general or specialist) in patients with suspected appendicitis admitted in Imam Rez...
متن کاملBone-resorbing cytokines in serum of patients with aseptic loosening of hip prostheses.
Our aim was to determine if the serum levels of bone-resorbing cytokines (IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, IL-6, GM-CSF) are altered in patients with aseptic loosening of a total hip prosthesis, and if such levels are influenced by the type of implant. We determined cytokine levels in sera from 35 patients before revision for failed total hip arthroplasty and compared them with those in 25 healthy donors. ...
متن کاملThe Diagnostic Accuracy of Radionuclide Arthrography for Prosthetic Loosening in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
PURPOSE OF STUDY Diagnosis of prosthetic loosening in hip and knee arthroplasty remains a challenge. Although there are a number of diagnostic tools, no single test or combination is 100% sensitive or specific. There has been a recent interest in the use of radionuclide arthrography (RNA) for detection of prosthetic loosening. METHODS A retrospective review of 45 consecutive RNA scans from 20...

Our aim was to determine the incidence of occult infection and to examine the role of ultrasound sonication of the implants in cases of presumed aseptic loosening in a prospective trial. Joint swabs, aspirates, and deep tissue samples were obtained from around the prosthesis for routine microbiology. Each prosthesis was sonicated and the sonicate examined with Gram staining and extended culture...
