We assessed the long-term outcomes of a large cohort of patients who have undergone a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), and sought to validate a patient satisfaction questionnaire for use in a PAO cohort. All patients who had undergone a PAO from July 1998 to February 2013 were surveyed, with several patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and radiological measurements of preoperative acetabular dysplasia and postoperative correction also recorded. Patients were asked to rate their level of satisfaction with their operation in achieving pain relief, restoration of activities of daily living, ability to perform recreational activity, and their overall level of satisfaction with the procedure.Aims
Methods
To explore the effect of different types of articulating antibiotic-loaded cement spacers in two-stage revision for chronic hip prosthetic joint infection (PJI). A retrospective cohort study was performed involving 36 chronic PJI patients treated with different types of articulating antibiotic-loaded cement spacers between January 2014 and December 2017. The incidence of complications and the therapeutic effects of different types of antibiotic-loaded articulating cement spacers were compared.Aims
