BACKGROUND: Stiffness complaints after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are frequent, yet poorly understood and can be challenging for surgeons to address. The WOMAC stiffness subscale is a widely used measure of stiffness and can serve as a simple screening...

A new technique to improve cup inclination accuracy in primary total hip arthroplasty.

Hip international : the journal of clinical and experimental research on hip pathology and therapy

Gonzalez Della Valle A, Beksac B, Peterson MG, Salvati EA.
PMID: 19219801
Hip Int. 2006 Oct-Dec;16(4):250-2.

Accurate inclination and anteversion of the acetabular component is paramount to achieve a stable total hip arthroplasty, prevent prosthetic dislocation and minimize long- term wear. We present and evaluate a simple new technique to improve consistency in cup inclination...

Bilateral total hip arthroplasty in siblings with Stickler Syndrome.

PMID: 18751792
HSS J. 2007 Sep;3(2):182-9. doi: 10.1007/s11420-007-9053-4.

Stiffness is the most prevalent early local complication of primary total knee replacement, affecting approximately 6 to 7% of patients undergoing surgery. The definition of stiffness after total knee replacement in terms of restriction of the arc of motion...

Urine desmosine as a marker of lung injury following total knee arthroplasty. A pilot study.

HSS journal : the musculoskeletal journal of Hospital for Special Surgery

Memtsoudis SG, Starcher B, González Della Valle A, Ma Y, Jules-Elysee K, Sculco TP.
PMID: 19521737
HSS J. 2009 Sep;5(2):154-8. doi: 10.1007/s11420-009-9116-9. Epub 2009 Jun 12.

Lung injury following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may occur secondary to embolization of bone debris, fat, and cement. Clinically relevant respiratory failure is rare and is therefore difficult to study. To facilitate future investigations on this subject, we evaluated...

Age affects the perception of limb length discrepancy in patients with and without a total hip arthroplasty.

Hip international : the journal of clinical and experimental research on hip pathology and therapy

Zoppi A, Peterson MG, Salvati EA, Gonzalez Della Valle A.
PMID: 28247400
Hip Int. 2004 Oct-Dec;14(4):249-253. doi: 10.5301/HIP.2008.4386.

The amount of lengthening or shortening that can be detected by patients before and after total hip arthroplasty has not been yet quantified. We studied the ability to detect limb length inequality in 194 patients with and without a...
