The use of impacted, morselized allograft is a well-established way to provide initial stability
of revision joint replacements. We investigated whether rinsing morselized allograft in …

Revision arthroplasty is a challenging aspect of the otherwise quite successful area of joint
replacement surgery. The instable interaction between implant and host bone has often …

It has been shown that fixation of primary cementless joint replacement can independently
be enhanced by either:(1) use of hydroxyapatite (HA) coated implants,(2) compaction of the …

Background Long-term survival of uncemented total joint replacements relies on
osseointegration. With reduced bone stock impacted morselized allograft enhances early …

In vitro studies of the initial attachment, spreading and motility of human bone mesenchymal
stem cells have been carried out on bovine osteopontin (OPN) coated hydroxyapatite (HA) …

It is well established in the field of biomaterials that hydroxyapatite (HA) may provide
interesting osteoconductive properties. In this study, we investigated the osseointegrational …

Insertions of orthopedic implants are traumatic procedures that trigger an inflammatory
response. Macrophages have been shown to liberate gold ions from metallic gold. Gold ions …

Background and Objectives Major ankle surgery causes intense postoperative pain, and
whereas the importance of a sciatic nerve block is well established, the clinical significance …

Early secure fixation of total joint replacements is crucial for long‐term survival.
Antiresorptive agents such as bisphosphonates have been shown to increase implant …

Initial secure implant fixation predicts long‐term survival. Bisphosphonates are anti‐
resorptive agents. They have been shown to increase implant fixation. We investigated …
