The number of arthroplasties of the hip and knee
is predicted to increase rapidly during the next 20 years. Accompanying
this is the dilemma of how to follow-up these patients appropriately.
Current guidelines recommend long-term follow-up to identify patients
with aseptic loosening, which can occur more than a decade postoperatively.
The current guidelines and practices of orthopaedic surgeons vary
widely. Existing models take up much clinical time and are expensive.
Pilot studies using ‘virtual’ clinics and advanced-practice physiotherapists
have shown promise in decreasing the time and costs for orthopaedic surgeons
and patients. This review discusses current practices and future trends in
the follow-up of patients who have an arthroplasty. Cite this article:

The aim of this study was to report the outcome of femoral condylar fresh osteochondral allografts (FOCA) with concomitant realignment osteotomy with a focus on graft survivorship, complications, reoperation, and function. We identified 60 patients (16 women, 44 men) who underwent unipolar femoral condylar FOCA with concomitant realignment between 1972 and 2012. The mean age of the patients was 28.9 years (10 to 62) and the mean follow-up was 11.4 years (2 to 35). Failure was defined as conversion to total knee arthroplasty, revision allograft, or graft removal. Clinical outcome was evaluated using the modified Hospital for Special Surgery (mHSS) score.Aims
