Broken Hip Recovery
Recovering from a broken hip typically involves surgery followed by physical therapy to restore mobility and strength. Early movement after surgery is crucial for regaining function and preventing complications. While pain usually lessens after four to six weeks, it can take up to a year to fully recover from a broken hip.
Comparison of 20-year results of total hip arthroplasty using first-generation annealed highly cross-linked polyethylene and zirconia heads in patients aged ≤ 50 and > 50 years
Zirconia-on-annealed HXLPE THA showed excellent 20-year wear resistance and survivorship, with comparable outcomes between ≤ 50 and > 50 groups.
Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Bibliometric Analysis of Global Research Trends
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) represents a major cause of pain and disability among older adults. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a promising biologic therapy aimed at modulating inflammation and promoting cartilage repair. As the clinical use of PRP has expanded, a rapidly growing body of literature has developed examining its efficacy and mechanisms of action in knee OA. Bibliometric analysis provides a useful method to evaluate research productivity, collaborative networks, and emerging trends within a scientific field.
Comparative Outcomes of Hip Arthroscopy-Assisted Surgery and the Direct Anterior Approach for Pipkin Type I and II Femoral Head Fractures
Comparative evidence regarding the direct anterior approach and hip arthroscopy–assisted surgery for Pipkin type I and II fractures remains limited. This study compares these minimally invasive strategies and evaluates whether fragment excision or internal fixation yields superior functional outcomes.
Alternatives to Hip Replacement
Severe hip arthritis can cause pain and difficulty walking. Many people who have these debilitating symptoms because of hip arthritis will elect to undergo total hip replacement surgery. However, total hip replacement is not without its own risks and concerns, and therefore many people wonder if there are alternatives to hip replacement.
