Ischiofemoral hip ligament reconstructions for recurrent posterior total hip joint dislocations

Analysis of Proprioception of Hip Joint in Total Hip Arthroplasty

Introduction: The instability of the joint is classified roughly into mechanical and functional. It is reported that the postoperative dislocation often occurs by the posterior approach of the THA and may be caused by functionality instability due to the injury of the periarticular soft tissue. We analyzed the joint position sense of the hip according to an approach of the THA and examined effe...

Modified posterior approach to the hip joint

This modification was developed in1981 by Cadaveric Tests prior to clinical application in patients, and this was primarily devised anatomically to decrease dislocations of the Hip Joint. Here the bone over the greater trochanter was osteotoimised at it posterior overhanging part to provide for access to the Hip Joint, which was resutured using 2 stainless steel wires In order to reconstitute t...

Inflammatory Pseudotumor Complicated by Recurrent Dislocations after Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty

A 71-year-old female with a history of right total hip arthroplasty presented with an enlarging pseudotumor. Pseudotumor is a known complication following metal-on-metal and metal-on-conventional polyethylene and metal-on-highly cross-linked polyethylene implants. Revision total hip arthroplasty following resection of pseudotumor has resulted in an increase in incidence of postoperative complic...

Surgical experience related to dislocations after total hip arthroplasty.

We studied the effect of surgical experience on the dislocation rate after 4230 primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs) all performed using the posterior approach at three orthopaedic centres at major county hospitals. There were 129 postoperative (3%) dislocations. Twice the number of dislocations were registered for inexperienced surgeons as for their more experienced colleagues. This frequen...
