Great article in @JArthroplasty by Harris Orthopaedics Lab and @HBedairHipKnee looking at 10-year wear rates of vitamin-E-diffused highly crosslinked polyethylene liners. #OrthoTwitter @MassGeneralNews @ChrisMelnicMD @AAHKS @Perry_Lim8 arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Managing pelvic discontinuity in revision #THA is a major challenge. This excellent article out of @MassGenBrigham, @RothmanOrtho, @MOR_Docs, @PennOrtho describes outcomes of the acetabular distraction technique. #orthotwitter @AAHKS @JArthroplasty arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Great article from @harvardortho, @MassGenBrigham, @DrAntoniaChen, and @HBedairHipKnee. Is mental health a modifiable risk factor prior to joint replacement? How do you optimize these patients in your practice? #OrthoTwitter #TKA #THA @OfficialJAAOS journals.lww.com/jaaos/abstr…

Tracking #PROMs after #TKA and #THA is becoming increasingly important. This study looks at the utility of a mobile app to increase engagement. How do you efficiently capture #PROMs in your practice? #OrthoTwitter @RothmanOrtho @AAHKS @JArthroplasty arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

What is the role for extended oral antibiotics in primary and revision hip and arthroplasty in your practice? #OrthoTwitter #TKA #THA #PJI @AAHKS @JArthroplasty @EmoryOrtho sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Great study out of @NEBHortho looking at the variables adult reconstruction fellowship applicants are considering when evaluating fellowship programs. #TKA #THA #roboticsurgery @AAHKS @JArthroplasty arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Pre-operative identification of #osteoporosis is essential for minimizing fracture risk in #TKA. Optimize vitamin D, calcium, nutritional status. Cemented fixation. Try to avoid box cut on femur. What do you do? #orthotwitter @JArthroplasty @AAHKS arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Fluted tapered stems are a workhorse for femoral reconstruction in #revisionTHA. Both modular and monoblock designs have demonstrated durable results. What do you prefer? Modular or monoblock? @JArthroplasty #orthotwitter #totalhiparthroplasty arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Great to see @utswortho and @Parkland staying at the forefront of trauma care by developing a machine learning model for real-time mortality risk assessment and evaluating its clinical utility. @JofOrthoTrauma #orthotwitter #trauma
Our #orthopaedictrauma team (#UTSWOrtho and @Parkland) have come out with an initial report on #Parkland Trauma Index of Mortality in Orthopaedic Trauma Patients. It was accepted and published in @JofOrthoTrauma. Read more: bit.ly/46BDNhY #UTSW #orthopaedics

Avoiding early fracture in #THA is key. Meticulous preop evaluation. Collared cementless stems. Low threshold to cement. What strategies do you use? @bethgausdenmd @DrPeterSculco @BrianChalmersMD @HSpecialSurgery @JArthroplasty #orthotwitter #THA arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Great study in @JArthroplasty addressing a difficult problem in #TKA! #orthotwitter #revisionTKA #arthrofibrosis @AAHKS Low-dose Irradiation and Rotating-Hinge Revision for the Treatment of Severe Idiopathic Arthrofibrosis... arthroplastyjournal.org/arti…

Great study out of @MountSinaiOrtho! Intra-articular hip injections have a very limited role in my practice. Increased infection risk with #THA. Also, I’ve seen cases of rapidly progressive femoral head AVN after hip injection. #hiparthritis #jointreplacement @OfficialJAAOS
Do preop joint injections increase risk of TJA infection? Find the answer HERE bit.ly/3tFvoLA
