25 mar 2024 · The aims of this systematic review were to assess the documented long-term survival rates of the metal-on-metal BIRMINGHAM HIP Resurfacing System at a follow-up of at least 10 years and to analyze the functional outcomes and cause of failures.
18 maj 2024 · Metal ion levels at long term follow-up were low (mean serum cobalt 1.8±1.5 ppb and mean serum chromium 2.2±2.0 ppb). BHR demonstrated excellent survivorship in males less than 60 years of age at time of surgery. Clinical outcomes and activity levels were similar to THA patients.
13 lip 2024 · When I had ACL/MCL surgery and one of my hip surgeries, it took 2 years for the leg to feel normal again - and I still have a small numb patch on the side of one thigh, and a "stripe" about 4 inches long on the other thigh that is painful when the weather changes or I get an arthritis flare.
9 sie 2024 · This research aims to identify the prevalence of failure for Birmingham Hip Prosthesis (BHR) in total hip arthroplasty and to analyze its reasons from biomaterials and biofunctional perspectives. We present our current analysis and tests on a series of different BHR-retrieved prostheses after premature failure.
22 kwi 2022 · Recent research published by Mayo Clinic doctors include studies that examine: Different types of artificial joint components; Techniques that reduce the risk of leg lengths not matching; Ways to reduce blood loss during hip replacement surgery; Strategies to reduce the risk of the prosthesis becoming infected; Nationally recognized expertise
1 wrz 1999 · The revision diagnoses differed between the groups, with the BHR demonstrating a higher revision rate for loosening after 2 years than the conventional THA protheses (HR 4.64 [95% CI 1.66 to 12.97]; p = 0.003), as well as a higher fracture rate during the entire period (HR 2.57 [95% CI 1.24 to 5.33]; p = 0.01).
