Diagnosing aseptic loosening following total hip arthroplasty is challenging. Computed tomography (CT)-guided implant movement analysis (CT-IMA) overlays two CT scans of a stressed total hip prosthesis to evaluate for micromotion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate this technology in identifying clinically stable and unstable total hip prostheses.

Drug delivery to cartilage is limited by its complex architecture and avascularity. Cationic Peptide Carriers (CPC) have previously been optimized for improved cartilage transport and retention of drugs in vitro. In this study, we evaluated the kinetics, stability, and immunogenicity of CPCs after a single intra-articular injection using a rabbit knee injury model.

These findings suggest that contractures in children with cerebral palsy stabilize the ankle during toe walking. Younger children may show greater stability due to early contracture development, while advanced contractures in older children may reduce stability.

External fixation is used in acute and elective cases in both adult and pediatric patients. Adequate selection of patients for external fixation is critical, especially in patients with polytrauma where the application of damage control orthopedics is considered. Deterioration of the bone–pin interface is the most common source of local postoperative complications. Pin loosening and pin track infection are the 2 most common complications. Treatment of pin loosening without infections consists of pin removal and reinsertion outside the affected area. Pin track infections are managed according to the infection severity, which is assessed using the Checketts–Otterburn classification.

Most studies examining the time to return to sport (RTS) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) do not account for the athlete’s phy...

Assessing the bone condition in patients with spinal disease is clinically valuable. However, evaluating bone strength in the presence of spine degene...
