Eight years out from a TKA, and the X-ray tells the story before the patient finishes the sentence. Significant polyethylene wear. Gross instability. Infection workup negative. Cobalt and chromium both running 2x normal — the metal is involved now, not just the plastic. In my OR, this is the fork I think about hardest: with instability plus metallosis on top of wear, is an isolated poly exchange ever enough — or has the metal damage already made that decision for you? For the revision surgeons: where's your line? What pushes you from poly swap to full revision in a case like this — the instability pattern, the ion levels, what you find once you're in, or something else? More details here
This is the case of an older patient who sustained a low-energy posterior #pilon fracture-dislocation of the ankle. The ankle was reduced in the ER and splinted. She was treated with open reduction and internal fixation, including the posterior distal tibia. The fibula was fixed with bridge fixation due to comminution. The tibia was fixed with posterior-to-anterior #TTFNs from OSSIO through an #MPM approach. After fixation, the external rotation stress was negative. At her first post-op, they were noted to be dislocated again. Upon questioning, they reported using the leg for standing and transferring in the splint, despite post-op non-weight-bearing restrictions. With these small fragments, in hindsight I could’ve used #antiglide plates. Since the joint was dislocated for an unknown amount of time, the decision was made to sacrifice the joint and allow for earlier weight-bearing with a load-sharing implant. One of the uncommon benefits of OSSIO fixation is in the face of revision. Due to the nature of #Ossiofiber , I was able to drill and ream through the material without need for removal for preparation of the hindfoot nail. Therefore, a small anterior approach and small sinus tarsi approach were used for joint prep. Texas Orthopaedic Associates - A Division of OrthoLoneStar More details here
These are the X rays of a 68 year-old active female who underwent SCARF osteotomy for hallux valgus at another institution. How would you treat❓ About 1 year after surgery, she developed progressive foot pain without any history of new trauma. She underwent multiple consultations and several nerve block injections, but her symptoms continued. ▪️Now, 4 years after the initial surgery, she presents with severe, debilitating foot pain and marked restriction of motion, around the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint. ?Her pain progressed significantly, especially around the midfoot, and for the last 6 months she has required elbow crutches for walking. ❓ How would you approach this case?

A novel “Precision technique” for preoperative planning of tibial slope correction osteotomy. High Tibial Osteotomy and Tibial Slope Correction Osteotomy requires precise preoperative planning. Tibial slope measurement and a slope correction osteotomy therefore requires planning without errors. Currently utilised preoperative planning techniques for slope correction are not very accurate. These can lead to errors in surgical correction and therefore impact the results. This novel “Precision technique” of planning overcomes errors in planning of the current traditional technique. It gives us the precise osteotomy correction angle by a simple measuring technique. The open access article which is attached highlights and gives all details of this novel technique. It can help one plan precisely, for accurate corrections to get the desired results. Link to the article - https://lnkd.in/gPuwrymD
Lateral Hip Pain After Femoral Neck Fixation: What’s the Next Step? A patient presented after successful healing of an impacted femoral neck fracture treated by outside surgeon 5 years ago with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning. The fracture is healed—but now they’re dealing with persistent lateral hip pain. On exam: focal tenderness over the lateral screw heads. This is a scenario many of us see. Read more
