A comparison of distal canal restrictors in primary cemented femoral hip arthroplasty.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A retrospective study evaluated 75 total hip arthroplasties performed over a 4-year period using 4 different cement restrictors. A harvested bone restrictor, polyethylene restrictor (Smith & Nephew, Richards Inc, Memphis, Tenn), Biostop G (Depuy Orthopaedics, Warsaw, Ind), and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) (Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, Tex) were compared for the percentage of failures, the average length of the cement mantle, and the width of the femoral canal compared to the cement grade. Patient age, sex, and cement type were also evaluated for their influence on cement grade. The PMMA restrictor and bone performed better than the Richards plug and Biostop G restrictor.

The effect of two different types of cement restrictors on the femoral cement mantle.
Cement restriction and pressurisation are helpful technical points in achieving a good cement mantle in cemented hip replacement. In this prospective study, we compared 39 cases where a Hardinge polyethylene restrictor was used and 33 cases where a bone block restrictor was used during Charnley hip replacement. The preoperative radiographs were templated, calibrated holders for the cement restr...
متن کاملOsteolytic changes around biodegradable cement restrictors in hip surgery
Background and purpose - Biodegradable cement restrictors are widely used in hip arthroplasty. Like others, we observed osteolytic reactions associated with a specific cement restrictor (SynPlug; made of PolyActive) and reviewed our patients. Patients and methods - We identified 703 patients with suitable radiographs from our database (2007 to 2012) who underwent cemented hip arthroplasty and r...

OBJECTIVE To determine the changes in perfusion to the proximal femur that occur during cemented and uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). DESIGN Case series. SETTING A single tertiary-care centre. PATIENTS Twenty-two consecutive patients. Those who had undergone previous hip surgery or received systemic corticosteroid therapy were excluded. INTERVENTION Cemented (11 procedures) or u...
متن کاملChallenges of Plate Fixation for Vancouver Type-C Fractures after a Well-Fixed Hip Arthroplasty Femoral Stem
The fixation of distal femoral fractures (Vancouver type-C fractures) following a well-fixed hip arthroplasty femoral stem has become a challenging issue for orthopedic surgeons due to the inter-prosthetic biomechanical effects such as negative, positive, and torsional strain. Surgeons have applied a range of constructs to overcome these difficulties. To minimize the risk of inter-prosthetic fr...
متن کاملA Complication During Femoral Broaching in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Case Report
Press-fit component fixation is one of the primary goals in uncemented total hip arthroplasty. When aiming at proximal load transfer, the stem size has to be selected with regard to the shape of the proximal femoral canal. This can be challenging in patients with 'champagne flute' femurs with a relatively narrow diaphysis, especially when a long stem femoral component is used. The present case ...
