The June 2015 Knee Roundup360 looks at: Cruciate substituting
The February 2014 Hip &
Pelvis Roundup360 looks at: length of stay; cementless metaphyseal fixation; mortality trends in over 400,000 total hip replacements; antibiotics in hip fracture surgery; blood supply to the femoral head after dislocation; resurfacing and THR in metal-on-metal replacement; diabetes and hip replacement; bone remodelling over two decades following hip replacement; and whether bisphosphonates affect acetabular fixation.
This review examines the future of total hip arthroplasty, aiming to avoid past mistakes
The December 2013 Research Roundup360 looks at: Inflammation implicated in FAI; Ponseti and effective teaching; Unicompartmental knee design and tibial strain; Bisphosphonates and fracture healing; Antibiosis in cement; Zoledronic acid improves primary stability in revision?; Osteoporotic fractures revisited; and electroarthrography for monitoring of cartilage degeneration
The April 2013 Knee Roundup360 looks at: graft tension and outcome; chondrocytes at the midterm; pre-operative deformity and failure; the designer effect; whether chondroitin sulphate really does work; whether ACL reconstruction is really required; analgesia after TKR; and degenerative meniscus.
The December 2012 Trauma Roundup360 looks at: whether tranexamic acid stops bleeding in trauma across the board; antibiotic beads and VAC; whether anaesthetic determines the outcome in surgery for distal radial fractures; high complications in surgery on bisphosphonate-hardened bone; better outcomes but more dislocations in femoral neck fractures; the mythical hip fracture; plate augmentation in nonunion surgery; and SIGN intramedullary nailing and infections.
