  • The hip socket is called the acetabulum and forms a deep cup that surrounds the ball of the upper thigh bone. (orthopaedicclinic.com.sg)
  • Etidronate disodium tablets, USP are indicated for the treatment of symptomatic Paget's disease of bone and in the prevention and treatment of heterotopic ossification following total hip replacement or due to spinal cord injury. (nih.gov)
  • The design concept of these short (hip) stems promises better bone and soft-tissue preservation without negatively affecting implant survival. (aofoundation.org)
  • Stability of the hip joint is achieved by the labrum (a strong fibrous cartilage that covers the acetabulum and seals it), ligaments (tissues connecting bone to bone), and tendons (tissues connecting muscle to bone) that encase the hip and support the hip movements. (venturahipandknee.com)
  • The hip joint is the joint between the pelvis and the upper end of the femur or thigh bone. (thomas-orthopaedics.co.uk)
  • The hip is a ball and socket with the socket in the pelvis and the ball on the upper end of thigh bone. (thomas-orthopaedics.co.uk)
  • One of the biggest challenges in joint arthroplasty is elbow arthroplasty, because the forces transmitted across the elbow are amplified by the long lever arm of the forearm, and there is limited bone stock about the elbow. (medapparatus.com)
  • Likewise, externally by trochanterotomy, one must cut the bone to achieve the hip joint (Figure 5). (sportsurgeryparis.com)
  • and where acetabular replacement is either not required or not desirable. (fda.gov)
  • The AESCULAP® Plasmafit® Family provides an acetabular solution for total hip joint replacements. (bbraun.com)
  • When compared to the most commonly used bearing couple in joint arthroplasty, which consists of cobalt-chrome (CoCr) metal alloy articulating against UHMWPE (see the image below), ceramic surfaces offer significant reductions in bearing wear rates. (medscape.com)
  • High strength, a high elastic modulus, high fracture toughness, and high fatigue resistance are vital for materials used as articular surfaces in total joint arthroplasty, both to provide mechanical reliability and to resist deformation. (medscape.com)
  • When the person moves the hip, the movement of the joint induces synovial fluid to flow between the hard metal bearing surfaces lubricating them when the components are placed in the correct position. (wikipedia.org)
  • If you find difficulty in performing simple activities such as walking or climbing stairs because of your severe arthritic knee pain, then total knee replacement may be an option for you. (andrewluumd.com)
  • For each patient, demographic data, LoS and patient reported outcome measures (EQ-5D-3L, Oxford hip/knee scores (OKS/OHS)) were obtained. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Measures in Category III have been proposed by some investigators, authorities, or organizations, but, to date, lack supporting data, a strong theoretical rationale, or an indication that the benefits expected from them are cost effective. (cdc.gov)
  • Artificial hip joint components are typically crafted from materials such as metal, plastic, or ceramic. (newyorkhipknee.com)
  • Spine arthroplasty or artificial disc replacement will expand in its usage dramatically over the next 10 years compared to fusion. (beckersspine.com)
  • Artificial disc replacements will become routinely used, superseding fusion as the standard of care over the next five to 10 years. (beckersspine.com)
  • They would opt for an artificial hip or knee replacement. (beckersspine.com)
  • Hip endoprosthesis, i.e. implantation of an artificial joint, becomes necessary. (medihorizon.pl)
  • We aimed to evaluate agreement between a new artificial intelligence (AI)-based CT-RSA and model-based RSA (MBRSA) in measuring migration of cup and stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA). (lu.se)
  • The surgical indications for total hip arthroplasty are: pain and dysfunction of the affected hip joint, and conservative treatment is ineffective, which affects the patient's normal life. (who.int)
  • This should be a final signal for the patient that the intervention of an orthopedic specialist regarding hip replacement is necessary. (medihorizon.pl)
