Open AccessTibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint 3D-kinematics in patients with posterior cruciate ligament deficiency compared to healthy volunteers
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) plays an important role in maintaining physiological kinematics and function of the knee joint. To date mainly in-vitro models or combined magnetic resonance and fluorosco...

Open AccessInfluence of osteogenic stimulation and VEGF treatment on in vivo bone formation in hMSC-seeded cancellous bone scaffolds
Tissue engineering approaches for reconstruction of large bone defects are still technically immature, especially in regard to sufficient blood supply. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigat...

Open AccessLong-term functional outcome and quality of life following rotationplasty for treatment of malignant tumors
Malignant bone tumors of the lower extremity are more frequently found in children and adolescents than in adults. Modern treatment regimens led to high limb salvage rates and offer the choice between endopros...

Open AccessShort- to long-term follow-up of total femoral replacement in non-oncologic patients
Compromised bone stock and heavily impaired structural integrity after multiple endoprosthetic revision surgeries can lead to a comparable condition as encountered in musculoskeletal tumor surgery. Total femor...

Open AccessDistal femoral replacement with the MML system: a single center experience with an average follow-up of 86 months
The aim of this study was to compare the functional outcomes and complication rates after distal femoral replacement (DFR) performed with the modular Munich-Luebeck (MML) modular prosthesis (ESKA/Orthodynamics...

Synovial aspiration and serological testing in two-stage revision arthroplasty for prosthetic joint infection: evaluation before reconstruction with a mean follow-up of twenty seven months
The two-stage revision protocol is the gold standard for controlling and treating low-grade prosthetic joint infections of total hip and total knee arthroplasty. The antibiotic pause for diagnostic reasons bef...

Open AccessCOVID-19-related cancellation of elective orthopaedic surgery caused increased pain and psychosocial distress levels
Health care systems in most European countries were temporarily restructured to provide as much capacity as possible for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Subsequently, all electiv...

Open AccessMachine learning in knee arthroplasty: specific data are key—a systematic review
Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is rapidly growing and offers novel options of data analysis. Machine learning (ML) represents a distinct application of AI, which is capable of generating prediction...

Open AccessArthroscopic lateral retinacular release improves patello-femoral and femoro-tibial kinematics in patients with isolated lateral retinacular tightness
Arthroscopic lateral retinacular release (LRR) has long been considered the gold standard for the treatment for anterior knee pain caused by lateral retinacular tightness (LRT). However, one-third of patients ...

Open AccessSynovial calprotectin is a reliable biomarker for periprosthetic joint infections in acute-phase inflammation — a prospective cohort study
Diagnosing periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) are challenging and may be hampered by the presence of other causes of local inflammation. Conventional synovial and serum markers are not reliable under these ...

Open AccessPrediction of complications and surgery duration in primary TKA with high accuracy using machine learning with arthroplasty-specific data
The number of primary total knee arthroplasties (TKA) is expected to rise constantly. For patients and healthcare providers, the early identification of risk factors therefore becomes increasingly fundamental ...

Article
Open AccessThe synovial fluid calprotectin lateral flow test for the diagnosis of chronic prosthetic joint infection in failed primary and revision total hip and knee arthroplasty
The diagnostic criteria of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) recommended by the most commonly used diagnostic algorithms can be obscured or distorted by other inflammatory processes or aseptic pathology. Furth...

Open AccessPostoperative full leg radiographs exhibit less residual coronal varus deformity compared to intraoperative measurements in robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty with the MAKO™ system
Robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA), currently a major trend in knee arthroplasty, aims to improve the accuracy of implant positioning and limb alignment. However, it is unclear whether and to...
