Massive Femoral Osteolysis Secondary to Loosening of a Cemented Roughened Long Stem: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
The surface finish of a femoral stem plays an important role in the longevity of cemented total hip arthroplasty. In efforts to decrease the rate of aseptic loosening, some prostheses have been designed to have a roughened surface that enhances bonding between the prosthesis and cement, but clinical outcomes remain controversial. We present a rare case of massive osteolysis with extreme femoral expansion that developed after cemented revision total hip arthroplasty. The destructive changes in the femur were attributable to abnormal motion of the stem and were aggravated by the roughened precoated surface of the long femoral component. Revision surgery using a total femur prosthesis was performed because there was insufficient remaining bone to fix the new prosthesis. The surgical technique involved wrapping polypropylene meshes around the prosthesis to create an insertion for the soft tissue, which proved useful for preventing muscular weakness and subsequent dislocation of the hip.

Background: We sought to characterize humeral-sided radiographic changes at a minimum of 2 years after reverseshoulder arthroplasty (RSA) to determine their association with specific implantation techniques.Methods: The immediate and most recent postoperative anteroposterior radiographs of 120 shoulders with primary RSAand a minimum of 2-years of radiographic follow-up were an...
متن کاملCemented Charnley revision arthroplasty for severe femoral osteolysis.
We reviewed prospectively cemented stem revision in 106 patients with severe femoral endosteal bone lysis without infection. Bone grafts were not used in any of the patients. The minimum follow-up was three years (mean 6 years 4 months). At the last review 76.4% of the patients were free of pain and 17.9% had only mild or occasional discomfort; radiographs showed well-fixed stable stems in 101 ...

PURPOSE To investigate the cause of failure in matte-surface cemented stems in second-generation metal-on- metal total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS Records of 26 men and 11 women (39 hips) aged 29 to 72 years who underwent primary cementless THAs by a single surgeon using second-generation metal-on-metal prostheses and were followed up for a mean of 122 (range, 120-141) months were reviewe...
متن کاملThe long-term results of press-fit cemented stems in total knee prostheses.
We evaluated the long-term fixation of 64 press-fit cemented stems of constrained total knee prostheses in 32 young patients with primary malignant bone tumours. Initial stable fixation, especially in rotation, was achieved by precise fit of the stem into the reamed endosteum, before cementation. Complementary fixation, especially in migration and rotation, was obtained by pressurised antibioti...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We performed a randomized study to determine the migration patterns of the Spectron EF femoral stem and to compare them with those of the Charnley stem, which is regarded by many as the gold standard for comparison of implants due to its extensive documentation. PATIENTS AND METHODS 150 patients with a mean age of 70 years were randomized, single-blinded, to receive eit...
