Prosthesis Retention

02/01/2016 - "Prosthetic joint infections (PJI) may be cured in selected patients with debridement and prosthesis retention. "
10/01/2009 - "For one patient with prosthesis retention, the infection persisted; 9/10 patients (90%) were cured, but 1 patient was superinfected. "
08/01/2015 - "This study aimed to explore the cumulative incidence of failure of chronic HA infections treated with prosthesis retention, with or without debridement. "
01/01/2013 - "Our study showed an 88% prosthesis retention rate in patients with acute presentation of late prosthetic knee infection. "
01/01/2021 - "The Double DAIR: A 2-Stage Debridement with Prosthesis-Retention Protocol for Acute Periprosthetic Joint Infections."

01/01/2006 - "These results indicate that an improvement in functional and psychological parameters can be achieved with two implants, whilst stabilization with four implants improves prosthesis retention, chewing ability and pain reduction in the long term. "
04/01/2015 - "Our study suggests that the use of tackers for prosthesis fixation to the promontory does not increase the incidence of post-operative dorsolumbar pain, but may increase its intensity and decrease quality of life."
03/01/2023 - "The current evidence shows better knee score, less pain, comparable complications and revision rates for uncemented tibial prosthesis fixation, compared to cemented, in cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty."
04/01/2008 - "Logistic regression was used to determine the association with post-THR SN of the variables age, sex, breed, weight, body condition score, severity of presurgical pain, side (right, left), type of prosthesis fixation (cemented, cementless), duration of surgery, surgeon experience (chronologic order), traumatic presurgical luxation, and primary versus revision arthroplasty. "
01/01/2016 - "This randomized clinical trial determined how ceramic-on-ceramic (CERAMIC) bearing THA affected joint-specific pain, function, and stiffness and prosthesis fixation/longevity over 10 postoperative years compared with ceramic-on-highly-crosslinked-polyethylene (POLYETHYLENE) bearing THA. "

07/18/2012 - "Although prosthesis retention has the theoretical advantages of decreased morbidity and improved return to function, two-stage exchange provides a lower rate of recurrent infection. "
11/01/2004 - "The risk of recurrent infection was not correlated with the type of organism, patient demographics, or method of prosthesis fixation at reimplantation. "
12/01/1994 - "Seven (28%) of the 25 knees without antibiotic-impregnated cement for prosthesis fixation developed recurrent infection compared with 3 (4.7%) of 64 knees with antibiotic-impregnated cement for prosthesis fixation. "

08/01/2015 - "Is prosthesis retention effective for chronic infections in hip arthroplasties? "
08/01/2015 - "The failure rate of the prosthesis retention approach associated to debridement for chronic infection in HA is 48.3 % in this review. "
06/01/2015 - "Thirty-three patients with late chronic infections were treated with challenging prosthesis retention for prostheses that had not loosened or 2-stage exchange arthroplasty for prostheses that had loosened. "

08/01/2014 - "Periauricular osseointegrated prosthesis retention systems have been proven safe and effective in the management of microtia. "
