Results of ReCap-M2a-Magnum Metal-on-Metal Total Hip Arthroplasty
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-05-08)
Metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) bearing surfaces were standardized by Sir John Charnley and are still considered the gold standard in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Nevertheless, MoP THAs caused polyethylene wear and led to ...
Bone quality and mesenchymal stromal cell capacity in total hip replacement: Significance for stem osseointegration measured by radiostereometric analysis
(Annales Universitatis Turkuensis D 1244Turun yliopisto, 2016-09-23)
Immediate implant stability is a key factor for success in cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA). Cementless techniques were originally designed for middle-aged patients with normal bone structure and healing capacity, ...
Role of pelvic incidence in hip disorders
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-12-21)
The pelvis is a rotating modulator connecting the spine and lower limbs; it helps the body to maintain a vertical position. Pelvic incidence (PI) is fundamental, constant, and unique for each individual measure defined as ...
Risk of dislocation, cancer and mortality following hip arthroplasty
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-11-22)
Since the introduction of the first modern hip implants in the 1960s, total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemiarthroplasty (HA) have continued to evolve towards minimizing implant-related complications. Developments in surgical ...
Registers in assessing complication and revision after hip arthoplasty
(Turun yliopisto, 2017-12-15)
Cemented low-friction arthroplasty, pioneered by Sir John Charnley, is the basis for modern total hip arthroplasty (THA). The Charnley THA is still considered as the gold standard against which new devices are compared. ...

Outcome of metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty: with special interest in repeated whole blood chromium and cobalt measurements
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-10-21)
It is now more than a decade since the full scale of problems with modern large diameter (LD) metal-on-metal (MoM) hip arthroplasties was recognized, leading to the withdrawal of most MoM implants around 2012. About 1.5 ...
Reducing dislocations of total hip arthroplasty
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-03-04)
Dislocation is one of the most common complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA). There are several concepts that can be used to reduce the number of dislocations, including elevated liners, larger femoral heads, ...
