Indications for revision following Birmingham Hip Resurfacing
Aims The literature reports excellent medium- to long-term results of Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR). However, revision risks after hip resurfacing vary across implant types, particularly as a result of variations in adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD). We aimed to charact...

ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is an age‐related disease accompanied by disrupted mitochondrial homeostasis and defective autophagy. Cellular senescence induces ion imbalance, which leads to mitochondrial damage and suppressed autophagic flux; nevertheless, the...

Background: Recent evidence has suggested that patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) revision surgery tend to have a larger differential posterior tibial slope compared to healthy individuals. The impact of differential slope on patient reported clinical outcomes f...

Hip arthroplasty following proximal femoral tumour resection in children
Aims Hip arthroplasty is rarely required before skeletal maturity. However, it is appropriate after resection of a proximal femoral bone tumour. This retrospective single-centre cohort study was conducted to evaluate how age and choice of articulation affects modes of implant fai...

Assessment of the plane of maximum curvature in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using 3D ultrasound
Aims The size of the curves in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is traditionally assessed using 2D Cobb angles, which may underestimate the extent of this complex 3D deformity. The plane of maximum curvature, measured using 3D reconstructions of the spine, incl...

Enabling alloy screening via multi-material printing using a production PBF-LB machine
The development of novel functional alloys is often constrained by the onerous and costly discovery to validation process. Herein, we present a set-up to enable multi-material production of specimens through in-situ alloy formation using a production laser-based powder bed fusion...

Reducing complications after resection of pelvic bone sarcomas
Aims: Primary pelvic bone sarcomas are rare and their treatment remains complex, with reconstruction after resection remaining controversial due to high complication and revision rates. Both prosthetic and non-prosthetic reconstructions carry risks including infection, implant fa...
