Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty
Author: Hosam E. Matar
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030812855
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This book is a practically applicable guide to the use of revision total knee arthroplasty. Demand for primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) continues to rise, with some estimates predicting this to be as high as 400% than it currently is, and this will inevitably lead to increased demand for revision surgery. Furthermore, this is a sub-specialist area of arthroplasty that is complex and challenging with high failure rates, meaning that there is a real need to improve the outcomes of these procedures. Within this book, the chapters focus on a particular subject area focusing on how to successfully perform a procedure in a step-by-step manner in a variety of scenarios from condylar revisions to salvage cases. Topics covered include how to use surgical techniques in instances of periprosthetic distal femur fractures and manage infections where bone loss has been significant. Long-term outcome data is also presented to enable the reader to develop a deep understanding of where a particular strategy might be most effective. Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Practical Guide concisely details how to use the techniques covered in all aspects of revision knee surgery, making it an indispensable resource for all those involved in the care of these patients or who use these techniques in their day-to-day clinical practice.

Management of Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs)
Author: J.J. Chris Arts
Publisher: Woodhead Publishing
ISBN: 0081002424
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Management of Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs): Management of PJIs discusses periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), a fairly rare occurrence that is nonetheless one of the most serious complications in joint replacement surgery. Intricate interactions between the pathogen, the host, and the implant can result in PJIs which are not only physically devastating for the patient, but also financially crippling for health authorities and insurance companies. Actions taken to minimize the risk of PJIs can be extremely challenging for the orthopaedic community. Consequently, new research, which is detailed in this comprehensive book, is being undertaken to minimize and manage these challenging infections. - Provides essential background knowledge on the mechanisms and identification of PJIs - Dedicated chapters focus on the complex, but vital eccentricities between PJIs in different areas of the body - Contains contributions from a mixture of clinical and academic experts in the field, thus ensuring balanced coverage
