Complex Primary Total Hip Replacement

This book is a concise guide to hip replacement surgery. Beginning with an introduction to exposures for complex hip arthroplasty, the following sections discuss hip replacement procedures for different types of condition including fractures, arthritis and tumours, as well as neuromuscular abnormalities. Each chapter provides orthopaedic surgeons with a complete review of the pathological problems that may be encountered, a rationale for preoperative planning and correction of bony and soft tissue abnormalities, as well as discussion on implants. Covering a broad spectrum from excision arthroplasty to computer assisted hip replacement, this useful reference includes 110 colour images and illustrations. Key Features Concise guide to hip replacement surgery covering range of conditions including injuries and diseases Broad spectrum of procedures discussed Examines pathological problems, preoperative planning and implants More than 100 colour images and illustrations

Step by step guide to hip arthroplasty for orthopaedic surgeons, covering every surgical approach for total hip replacement, from basic procedures to complex techniques. Written by recognised California-based expert Ran Schwarzkopf.

This book covers pertinent principles and practical surgical techniques related to primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) including complex cases. Written by experienced hip and knee surgeons, this book introduces the basic concepts of THA, helping the reader understand the basic science and history of THA. More chapters cover the preoperative planning and preparation, exposure using the various approaches, together with tips and tricks to position implants properly. Navigation-guided and robotic THA techniques are also included. Complications related to surgery, such as leg-length discrepancy, periprosthetic infections and fractures, hip instability, and deep vein thrombosis, are further discussed. Complex situations in specific diseases and pathology, such as rheumatoid hip arthritis, ankylosis spondylitis, and post-traumatic arthritic hip diseases are demonstrated.

Comprised exclusively of clinical cases covering complex primary and revision total knee arthroplasty, this concise, practical casebook will provide orthopedic surgeons with the best real-world strategies to properly manage the more complicated forms of knee replacement they may encounter. Each chapter is a case that opens with a unique clinical presentation, followed by a description of the diagnosis, assessment and management techniques used to treat it, as well as the case outcome and clinical pearls and pitfalls. Cases included illustrate different management strategies for primary knee arthroplasty, including the varus and valgus knee, flexion contracture and extra-articular deformity, as well as periprosthetic infection and revision total knee arthroplasty, including deficient extensor mechanism, periprosthetic femur fracture and ligamentous instability. Pragmatic and reader-friendly, Complex Primary and Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Clinical Casebook will be an excellent resource for orthopedic surgeons confronted with a challenging knee joint replacement.

Doody Rating : 3 stars : Editor has put together well-known international Orthopaedic surgeons across the globe for writing down their experience in Hip Arthroplasty. There is extensive bibliography after each chapter which serve as reference material for further research. This book is from the series of Mastering Orthopedic Techniques. This is a comprehensive text for surgeons doing total hip replacement with step-by-step colored illustrations. Detailed descriptions for every possible surgical approach for total hip replacement. Topic covered in the chapters include cover cementation on both.

The incidence of total hip arthroplasty is increasing in number because of successful outcomes. Although technically challenging, once mastered a hip replacement is one of the most gratifying surgeries for both patient and surgeon. This book covers some of the most important aspects of hip replacement surgery. These include preoperative planning, anesthesia, classification systems, management of proximal femur fractures, anterior approach, complications, and rehabilitation aspects of hip arthroplasty. The book is intended for arthroplasty surgeons, anesthetists, and physical therapists who will find the book useful in parts and as a whole if they deal with arthroplasty cases on a regular basis. Experience-based narration of various subjects by authors ensures that first-hand experience is passed on to readers in a simple, easy-to-understand manner.

This open access book describes and illustrates the surgical techniques, implants, and technologies used for the purpose of personalized implantation of hip and knee components. This new and flourishing treatment philosophy offers important benefits over conventional systematic techniques, including component positioning appropriate to individual anatomy, improved surgical reproducibility and prosthetic performance, and a reduction in complications. 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. Contributions from surgeons who are considered world leaders in diverse fields of this novel surgical philosophy make this open access book will invaluable to a wide readership, from trainees at all levels to consultants practicing lower limb surgery
