Download or read book Metal on Metal Total Hip Replacements Or Hip Resurfacing for Adults written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Total hip replacement (THR), or total hip arthroplasty, is a common orthopedic procedure used to restore function to patients with damaged or degenerated hips and chronic pain. Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is another option for treating degenerative hip disease, particularly in younger patients with active lifestyles. During THR, the head of the femur is removed and replaced with a prosthesis that has a protruding ball. The ball fits into an acetabular cup that is secured to the pelvis with cement or by promoting bone ingrowth. The inside of the cup may contain a lining to reduce friction and decrease wear. Different models of hip prostheses are comprised of varying combinations of metal, ceramic or polyethylene balls, cups and liners. Implant type and mode of fixation are based on patient needs and surgeon preference. During HRA, a metal cap is placed on the femoral head to cover damaged bone and a metal shell is placed in the acetabulum. MOM hip implants, made of stainless steel, titanium or cobalt chrome, may erode and gradually release metal ions into the bloodstream resulting in toxicity. Due to adverse reactions to metal debris, MOM hips have also been associated with high failure rates and surgical revisions. This review evaluates the comparative clinical and cost-effectiveness of MOM total hip replacement versus MOP (cross-linked polyethylene) total hip replacement. The comparative clinical effectiveness of hip resurfacing versus total hip replacement in adults is also examined.

Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Arthroplasty by : Samo Fokter
Download or read book Recent Advances in Arthroplasty written by Samo Fokter and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-01-27 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book was to offer an overview of recent insights into the current state of arthroplasty. The tremendous long term success of Sir Charnley's total hip arthroplasty has encouraged many researchers to treat pain, improve function and create solutions for higher quality of life. Indeed and as described in a special chapter of this book, arthroplasty is an emerging field in the joints of upper extremity and spine. However, there are inborn complications in any foreign design brought to the human body. First, in the chapter on infections we endeavor to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date analysis and description of the management of this difficult problem. Second, the immune system is faced with a strange material coming in huge amounts of micro-particles from the tribology code. Therefore, great attention to the problem of aseptic loosening has been addressed in special chapters on loosening and on materials currently available for arthroplasty.
Book Synopsis Tribo-Behaviors of Biomaterials and their Applications by : Jawahar Paulraj
Download or read book Tribo-Behaviors of Biomaterials and their Applications written by Jawahar Paulraj and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tribo-Behaviors of Biomaterials and Their Applications enables the reader to make an informed choice in the selection of biomaterials that aid the creation of safe and long-lasting surgical devices. Looking at metals, ceramics, and polymers with craniofacial, cardiovascular, spinal, dentistry, and orthopedic applications, this book is an essential guide to tribology in biomaterials. Handling wear within biodevices is a pressing issue due to the continuous friction and corrosion within the body. It is further complicated by the involvement of body fluids, which can lead to revision surgery to relieve pain. In order to lessen this, engineers can choose a biomaterial better suited to the application. Including detailed discussion of the properties of each biomaterial, this book covers the behaviors of implants, along with the methods and standards applied to devices. It has chapters on metals, ceramics, and polymers. It also covers body fluid lubrication and the physiological effects they have on implants, along with their tribo-corrosion behaviors. This book will be of interest to engineers and researchers in the field of biomechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, materials science, and manufacturing engineering, alongside all those researching tribology and nanocomposites.
Book Synopsis Interfaces in Total Hip Arthroplasty by : Ian D. Learmonth
Download or read book Interfaces in Total Hip Arthroplasty written by Ian D. Learmonth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book incorporates the experience of numerous experts who explore contemporary opinion of how best to rationalise and optimise the interfaces at total hip replacement to provide the most favourable and durable results. The survival of a total hip replacement depends principally on the enduring integrity of the fixation interfaces and of the articular interface. The design of the stem and the material properties of cement largely determine the state of the component-cement inter face, while the bone-cement interface is significantly influenced by both mechanical and biological factors. The surface finish and shape of cementless implants are designed to preserve the integrity of biological fixation (osseo-integration) at the bone-component interface. Once again, both mechanical and biological factors have to be considered, while bioactive coatings accelerate bone ongrowth. Metal-on-polyethylene is the most widely used articular interface. However, it has been suggested that wear of polyethylene is one of the major factors contributing to failure of total hip replacements. The increasing prevalence of total hip replacement in younger patients has stimulated the investigation of alternative, more durable couples -including ceramic-polyethylene, ceramic-ceramic and metal-on-metal. Modularity provides greater intra-operative flexibility, but each new modular interface introduces new mechanisms of failure. These need to be anticipated and appropriate measures taken to avoid them. Hopefully this book will provide a better understanding of the factors that contribute to stable interfaces and long-term survival of total hip arthroplasty.
