Navigation-assisted hip resurfacing may improve acetabular component positioning
Hip resurfacing may be an acceptable alternative to hip arthroplasty for hip osteoarthritis, with positive outcomes at 2-year follow-up.

The aims of this study were to assess whether delayed admission from the ED influenced mortality risk, length of acute hospital stay, risk of developing delirium and return to domicile for patients presenting with a hip fracture.
In this Technical Note, we propose an approach to improve the existing knee positions using a metal round stool as a foot support. The method aims to reduce reliance on human assistants during knee arthroscopy procedures and restore the natural positioning of leg muscles, potentially improving procedural outcomes.
Injuries of the knee resulting in damage to cartilage affect approximately 900,000 Americans annually, resulting in more than 200,000 surgical procedures. These injuries are frequently associated with pain, diminished joint functionality, and reduced quality of life.
For older adults undergoing hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture, intraoperative use of liposomal bupivacaine does not improve pain scores or other relevant outcomes, compared to conventional bupivacaine, reports a study in Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery.
