New Oral Anticoagulants for Thromboprophylaxis after Elective Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
Anticoagulant drugs reduce the risk of venous thromboembolic events after total hip and knee arthroplasty. However, the use of current drugs, such as low molecular weight heparins, is hampered by their subcutaneous route of administration. The use of vitamin K antagonists is hampered by the requirement for routine coagulation monitoring and dose titration to provide effective anticoagulation wi...
متن کاملMonocular blindness following elective hip arthroplasty.
Visual loss is a devastating complication of non-ophthalmic surgery. It is documented following cardiac, spinal, and transplant surgery. Patients with carotid artery occlusion are at increased risk for ocular ischaemia. Pre-operative assessment as well as early diagnosis and treatment is essential in cases of high-risk patients. We discuss the case of an 82-year-old man who underwent an electiv...
متن کاملComplications Following Total Hip Arthroplasty
Distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can range from being asymptomatic, to resulting in long term valvular damage resulting in chronic venous insufficiency. Proximal propagation can result in more serious pulmonary embolism. The overall incidence of DVT, including both radiologically diagnosed asymptomatic DVT and symptomatic DVT, post THA in early studies was reported to be as high as 70% without...
متن کاملRhabdomyolysis following total hip arthroplasty.
We report six cases of contralateral limb involvement during total hip arthroplasty including swelling of the gluteal muscle compartments, rhabdomyolysis, myoglobinuria, and sciatic nerve palsy. The risk factors for such complications include obesity, prolonged operative time, and positioning in the lateral decubitus position. The laboratory and clinical findings are consistent with a gluteal m...
متن کاملComputerized range of motion analysis following dual mobility total hip arthroplasty, traditional total hip arthroplasty, and hip resurfacing.
Newer arthroplasty designs claim to provide superior range of motion (ROM) and greater stability than their predecessors. However, there is no way to compare ROM of implant systems in an equivalent anatomical environment in a clinical setting. This study used computer-aided design to compare ROM after hip resurfacing, 28 mm THA, 36 mm THA, and anatomic dual mobility (ADM) THA in 3D models of 5 ...
