Prospective study of the treatment of infected hip arthroplasties with or without the use of an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer.
PURPOSE Our purpose was to compare 2 methods of treatment of chronic infection in hip arthroplasties--with or without an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer. METHODS In a prospective study, we treated 68 infected hip arthroplasties with discharging sinuses and bone loss, comparing 30 patients treated in 2 stages without the use of a spacer (control group) and 38 patients treated with a vancomycin...
متن کاملArtificial Fusion of Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty Using a Flexible Intramedullary Rod Bundle and an Antibiotic-Loaded Cement Spacer
Multiple total knee arthroplasty (TKA) failure resulting from a recurrent infection is a challenging problem. Knee arthrodesis is one treatment option that normally involves the application of an external fixator, plate fixation, and intramedullary nailing. However, these approaches are not always successful, and a reinfection is a risk, particularly in older, medically compromised patients. Th...
متن کاملRevision Total Hip Arthroplasty Using the Cement-in-Cement Technique.
The cement-in-cement technique is useful in the setting of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA), especially to gain acetabular exposure, change a damaged or loose femoral component, or change the version, offset, or length of a fixed femoral component. The goal of this retrospective study was to assess the clinical and radiographic characteristics of revision THA using the cement-in- cement te...
متن کاملTotal Hip Arthroplasty Using S-ROM Prosthesis for Dysplastic Hip
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of total hip arthroplasty using a proximal modular femoral stem in patients who had secondary coxarthrosis associated with a dysplastic hip. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-two patients (45 hips) with secondary coxarthrosis were evaluated after undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty using an S-ROM proximal ...
متن کاملTreatment of deep infection of the hip associated with massive bone loss: two-stage revision with an antibiotic-loaded interim cement prosthesis followed by reconstruction with allograft.
We have carried out in 24 patients, a two-stage revision arthroplasty of the hip for infection with massive bone loss. We used a custom-made, antibiotic-loaded cement prosthesis as an interim spacer. Fifteen patients had acetabular deficiencies, eight had segmental femoral bone loss and one had a combined defect. There was no recurrence of infection at a mean follow-up of 4.2 years (2 to 7). A ...
