The techniques described in the book aim to reproduce patients’ native anatomy and physiological joint laxity, thereby improving the prosthetic hip/knee kinematics and functional outcomes in the quest of the forgotten joint. They include kinematically aligned total knee/total hip arthroplasty, partial knee replacement, and hip resurfacing. The relevance of available and emerging technological tools for these personalized approaches is also explained, with coverage of, for example, robotics, computer-assisted surgery, and augmented reality.

Download or read book Total Hip Replacement A Patient s Journal written by Dan Junot and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-08 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU already have hip problems? You -- or someone you love? That's probably why you are reading this now. And you have a lot of hip pain. You're not sure what's causing it. And you're not really sure what, if anything, can be done about it. And because it's already pretty severe, you suspect it won't get better on its own. So you know that, sooner-or-later, you'll have to do something about it. But what? You've heard about hip surgery-but that whole idea seems kind-of scary. You don't even want to think about having surgery if you can help it. But how much longer can you "help it?" You know you will have to decide to do something. Perhaps you've stumbled onto this book for a good reason: inside is all you need to know to make the right decision. And it's not written by a surgeon, or a hospital, or a prosthesis company-or anyone else who will profit from your decision. It's written by a man, Dan Junot, a retired licensed mental health professional, and former clinical director for a hospital based urological clinic, who--himself--suffered seven years with severe hip pain before deciding to have total hip replacement surgery-not once, but twice (right and left hips). Dan wrote this short, easy to read text ... free of medical "big-words." What it is "big on" is truth. It is a realistic account of his actual experience-everything-both the good and the bad. Nothing is spared. What you need now is factual information to help you decide how to deal with your pain. Not sales tactics. Dan's account of his experiences are based upon his contemporaneous notes plus his own color illustrations of the surgical process, as well as a modestly depicted, photographic record of his incisions and healing. Armed with this knowledge, you will have the tools needed to make a sound decision as to whether or not total hip replacement surgery is for you. Don't kid yourself; don't think that you already know the answer, because you probably don't have enough factually based knowledge to make an informed decision, just yet. But, spend some time with this book, and you will learn the things that you will need to know to successfully plan your own future. Things that could determine whether your future ends up a painful or a pleasant one ... one with limited mobility or one with enhanced freedom of motion ... a future with a physically restricted lifestyle or one with almost no limitations. But, be sure to take time to consider your options now-before it's too late. If you wait ... your health could decline and treatment options along with it. Then you could be really stuck with hips that become progressively more painful and problematic. Let this journal be your personal guide, a handbook-if you will-to plotting a course of action towards eliminating your pain, taking back control of your life, and once again being able to enjoy simple, day-to-day, routine activities. All that you need to know to make the right decision, and rid yourself of that incessant pain, is an investment of a few hours reading. That sounds like a good deal-a mighty good deal! "I wish there had been something like this for me," says Dan. "But, there wasn't-so I wrote it. To help you! Now it's in your hands: the key to getting on with your future. Best Wishes!"

Download or read book Joint Arthroplasty written by Shinichi Imura and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of total joint arthroplasty throughout the world has contributed manifold benefits to patients who suffer from joint diseases. Concurrently, however, there has been an increase in revision surgery. Many orthopedic surgeons agree that durability of prostheses is an eternal problem. In particular, periprosthetic osteolysis recently has been identified as one of the serious problems affecting prosthetic dura bility. To improve durability, osteolysis and many other problems must be investi gated and solved both experimentally and clinically with respect to such aspects as prosthetic material, design, and biological and biomechanical behavior. This book comprises 37 papers that were presented by orthopedic surgeons and biomedical engineers at the 28th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for Replace ment Arthroplasty, held in March 1998 in Kanazawa, Japan. The volume is thus a compilation of the latest knowledge about the pathogenesis and reduction of osteolysis and wear, newly developed total hip prostheses, and other current topics of total knee arthroplasty. We earnestly hope that this book will be of benefit to clinicians and researchers, and that it will contribute to the creation of more durable total joint prostheses in the future.

Download or read book Total Hip Replacement written by Kalliopi Lampropoulou-Adamidou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Setting out from the premise that “a picture is worth more than a thousand words”, this book presents a superb set of illustrations, with accompanying clinical data, relating to a series of cases from a single surgeon registry. The series has the benefit of offering exceptionally homogeneous data from patients who have undergone total hip replacement (THR) and have been subjected to long-term follow-up with repeated acquisition of radiographs. This THR registry was established at the time when the Orthopaedic Department of the University of Athens became one of the first centers in Greece to perform THR. It now offers a huge database of unparalleled interest that includes approximately 1000 THRs performed by one of the authors (G. Hartofilakidis) between 1973 and 1994, with subsequent continuous follow-up. The cases with series of preoperative radiographs are of special interest, as they indicate the natural history of different types of hip disorders. In some cases of congenital hip disease, previous radiographs dating back to early childhood are available. Key messages and lessons learned are clearly spelled out. The book will be of high value for all orthopaedic surgeons who are interested in hip reconstruction surgery.
