Revision Hip Arthroplasty
Author: Richard N. Villar
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
This publication will give clear advice to orthopaedic surgeons on the most up-to-date methods of revising artificial joints when there is bone stock loss. It aims to give a practical overview of the revision arthroplasty of the hip dealing not only with problems that may be dealt with by the community orthopaedic surgeons, but also those more likely to be referred to orthopaedic surgeons specialising in the area of revision arthroplasty. This practical guide and accessible reference text gives an overall picture of the present status of the resources that are available. Though more than 500,000 total hip replacements are performed worldwide each year, their eventual failure is becoming an ever-increasing problem. This comprehensive book gives clear advice on the most up-to-date method of revision surgery for failed hip prostheses, with emphasis on the management of bone stock loss. Chapters cover the whole spectrum of revision hip arthroplasty of the hip ranging from diagnosis and management of infection to tissue banking, femoral reconstruction, impaction grafting, and acetabular revision. Revision Hip Arthroplasty is essential reading for orthopaedic surgeons of all grades who undertake hip replacement surgery, and for those who wish to accept the more challenging complex cases. Rheumatologists, rehabilitation specialists and physiotherapists will also find this to be an invaluable source of information.

AO ASIF Principles in Spine Surgery
Author: Irene Zintel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540627630
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
This book has become necessary as a consequence of the rapid expansion of the surgical procedures and implants available for spinal surgery within the "AO Group". We have not attempted to write an in-depth book on spinal surgery, but one which will help the surgeon in the use of AO concepts and implants. We con sider the practical courses held all over the world essential for the teaching of sound techniques so that technical complications and poor results can be avoid ed for both the surgeon and, in particular the patient. This book is a practical manual and an outline of what is taught in the courses. It is intended to help the young spinal surgeon to understand the correct use of AO implants. The indi- tions given will aid the correct use of each procedure. . It must be strongly emphasized that surgery of the spine is technically de manding. The techniques described in this book should only be undertaken by surgeons who are trained and experienced in spinal surgery. Certain techniques, in particular pedicle screw fIxation and cages, have not yet been fully approved by the FDA in the United States. However, throughout the rest of the world, the use of pedicle screws has become a standard technique for the spine surgeon, since it has been shown to improve fIxation techniques and allow segmental correction of the spine. The use of cages has become more and more popular, specifIcally as a tool of minimally invasive spinal surgery.

Patología de la cadera infantil
Author: Antonio Díaz Martínez
Publisher: Ediciones Díaz de Santos
ISBN: 9788487189999
Category : Medical
Languages : es
Pages : 270
Book Description
Cualquier médico especialista en pediatría, radiodiagnóstico-ecografía, traumatología- ortopedia o cualquier profesional de la medicina interesado en la patología infantil, estará de acuerdo en que algunos problemas de la cadera, como la enfermedad luxante, sinovitis e infecciones, cadera dolorosa, enfermedad de Legg-Calve-Perthes y epifisiólisis, constituyen cuadros clínicos de gran frecuencia. Siempre un diagnóstico precoz puede hacer que el resultado del tratamiento sea alentador, pero, en ocasiones ese mismo diagnóstico practicado más tarde de lo necesario puede ser causa de unas secuelas irreversibles, permanentes y funcionalmente desastrosas para el niño. Este libro es la expresión de un viaje atractivo y fascinante a través de la articulación de la cadera infantil por medio de la ecografía. Sus objetivos son dos: el primero, el intentar conseguir un screening neonatal sistemático y así detectar la más mínima patología. Como segundo objetivo, evitar estudios radiográficos repetidos e innecesarios y, por lo tanto, librar al niño de un número elevado de radiaciones. INDICE: Enfermedad luxante de la cadera. Diagnóstico ecográfico. Estudio funcional y dinámico de la cadera infantil. Dismetría de miembros inferiores. Empleo de la ecografía como método de medición. Cadera dolorosa en la infancia. Aportación de la ecografía al diagnóstico precoz. Enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes. Aportación de la ecografía en el diagnóstico precoz y seguimiento. Valoración de la anteversión femoral por medio de la ecografía. Metódica de su realización. Epifisiólisis de la cabeza femoral.
