This article outlines a new technique using previously available shoulder arthroscopy equipment to avoid increased cost incurred by procuring new, elbow-specific equipment.

Few studies have evaluated the relationship between patients pre-operative expectations and the outcome of orthopaedic procedures. Our aim was to det...

Aims: To determine the incidence and timing of post-operative fevers following shoulder arthroplasty and the resulting investigations performed.

Patients with flexion instability after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) often present with a recurrent effusion, which may be a haemarthrosis. While the radiographic factors contributing to flexion instability have been elucidated, the clinical diagnosis remains challenging. Our aim, in this study, wa...

The optimal method of tibial component fixation remains uncertain in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Hydroxyapatite coatings have been applied to improve bone ingrowth in uncemented designs, but may only coat the directly accessible surface. As peri-apatite (PA) is solution deposited, this may increa...

The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy and safety of multiple boluses of intravenous (IV) tranexamic acid (TXA) on the hidden blood loss (HBL) and inflammatory response following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA).

The aims of the study were to review and analyse the reported series of debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) in the management of infected total hip arthroplasties (THAs) to establish the overall success and the influencing factors.

You've probably heard of knee and hip replacements, but there's another joint that can give you just as many problems. Total ankle replacements are becoming more common as people deal with foot pain and technology improves.

Once disparaged as borderline quackery, the total ankle replacement is gaining acceptance as a treatment for crippling arthritis and serious injuries.

Pain on top of the foot may seem like an unusual location, particularly if no obvious injury took place there. However, this area can be affected by a variety of conditions and injuries beyond a bone fracture or bruise.
