Finite Element Modelling for Assessing Effect of Acetabular Component Orientation on the Basic Stress Path above Acetabular Dome
ConclusionsAcetabular component orientation affects the basic stress path above the acetabular dome. Thus, orientation should be considered when attempting to restore normal biomechanics in the main load‐bearing area. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

Combination Treatment with Whole Body Vibration and a Kidney‐tonifying Herbal Fufang Prevent Osteoporosis in Ovariectomized Rats
ConclusionEither WBV or BZG alone prevents OVX‐induced bone loss. However, BZG enhances the effect of WBV by further enhancing BMD, bone architecture and strength. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

Reconstruction of Limb Deformities in Patients with Thrombocytopenia‐absent Radius Syndrome
ConclusionPatients with TAR syndrome who receive optimal treatment can expect to return to most activities of daily living with some limitation of wrist extension and ulnar deviation and, of course, with a reduced total active range of digital motion. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

Three‐dimensional Computed Tomography for Assessing Lung Morphology in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis following Posterior Spinal Fusion Surgery
ConclusionsThis study showed that lung height in AIS patients increased significantly immediately postoperatively whereas lung volume did not change significantly. Thoracic symmetry was improved postoperatively in these patients. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

Cementless Revision for Infected Hip Arthroplasty: an 8.6 Years Follow‐up
ConclusionOne‐ or two‐stage revisions using cementless prosthesis can produce satisfactory clinical outcomes in patients with infection after THA. Whether the original prosthesis can be partially retained when attached tightly to the femur or acetabular bone needs further investigation. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

Thromboelastography Predictive of Death in Trauma Patients
ConclusionsTEG reaction time value, representing the time of initial clot formation, was the only hematologic marker predictive of mortality in patients with pelvic trauma. Delay in reaction time was associated with a significantly increased death rate, independent of injury severity. The death rate association was not observed with traditional markers of clotting. Future prospective studies may be warranted to determine the presentation and significance of TEG abnormalities when resuscitating patients with orthopaedic trauma. (Source: Orthopaedic Surgery)

No Evidence of Superiority in Reducing Outliers of Component Alignment for Patient‐specific Instrumentation for Total Knee Arthroplasty: a Systematic Review
Patient‐specific instrumentation (PSI) technology has been developed to improve alignment when implanting total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and is a new focus in the orthopaedic community. Current controversial data concerning PSI are discussed. A systematic review to compare PSI with conventional instrumentation and assess the radiographic outcomes was performed. Electronic databases (including PubMed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library and the Science Citation Index database) and conference proceedings from 1950 to 2014 in the English language were searched. Data, including relevant patient characteristics, sample size,...

Anatomy, Definition, and Treatment of the “Terrible Triad of the Elbow” and Contemplation of the Rationality of this Designation
In the realm of orthopaedics, the terrible triad of the elbow is infamous, not simply because the prognosis is poor for most patients, but also, maybe to a greater extent, because the unique name of this malady attracts considerable attention and interest in both doctors and patients. The adjective terrible is bestowed on an elbow triad that comprises three coexisting complicated traumas; namely, radial head and ulnar coronoid process fractures and posterior dislocation of the elbow joint. In this review, the classification, treatment principles and prognosis for different forms of management of the radial head and ulnar c...

A New Pathological Classification of Lumbar Disc Protrusion and Its Clinical Significance
This article introduces a new pathological classification comprising four types of lumbar disc protrusion according to intraoperative findings. The damage‐herniation type is probably caused by injury and is characterized by soft herniation, the capsule can easily be cut and the broken disc tissue blocks overflow or is easily removed. The broken disc substances should be completely removed; satisfactory results can be achieved by minimally invasive endoscopic surgery. The degeneration‐protrusion type is characterized by hard and tough protrusions and the pathological process by degeneration and proliferative reaction. T...
