Hip Replacement Dislocation
Among the most frequently seen complications of hip replacement surgery is dislocation of the hip replacement. Hip replacement dislocations occur in about 4% of first-time surgeries and about 15% of revision hip replacements. This complication is uncommon, but it does occur - sometimes in unforeseen circumstances.
Intraarticular leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma injection is more effective than intraarticular hyaluronic acid injection in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 12 randomized controlled trials
We aim to compare the clinical effects of intraarticular leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma (LP-PRP) injection with those of intraarticular hyaluronic acid (HA) injection in adult patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Understanding the Causes of Knee Pain on the Outer (Lateral) Part of Your Knee
An injury or arthritis most likely causes pain outside the knee. A doctor can determine the cause based on your other symptoms and the results of imaging tests.
Normal Hip Range of Motion
Range of motion (ROM) is a measurement of the distance and direction a joint can move to its full potential. Hip ROM is dictated by the ball-and-socket hip joint, which is made up of the femur (thighbone) and pelvis. They fit together in a way that allows for fluid, repeated motion - and a fair amount of wear and tear - but the joint isn’t indestructible.
Why do women have more trouble after knee injuries? Model explains estrogen's role
A computer model of the cellular environment inside the knee developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers sheds light on why women tend to have worse outcomes after knee injuries than men. Their findings, published in Scientific Reports, could facilitate research into new therapies for knee inflammatory disorders and personalized treatments for patients with these conditions.
