Total knee arthroplasty for ankylosed knees in the extended position with hemophilia: a medium- and long-term single-center experience.

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the curative methods for patients with end-stage ankylosed knees. However, the existing methods are difficult to enable patients with hemophilic ankylosed knees to recover good functional activities.

Methods: Between January 2008 and December 2021, 22 male patients with ankylosed knees in the extended position due to hemophilia underwent TKA.

Prosthesis survival situation and complications following total hip arthroplasty in hemophilic patients: a systematic review.

Background: Hemophilic arthropathy, resulting from recurrent joint bleeding in patients with hemophilia, often necessitates total hip arthroplasty (THA) to alleviate pain and improve joint function. However, the unique challenges posed by hemophilia, including coagulopathy and compromised bone health, result in increased risks of complications such as bleeding, infection, and prosthesis loosening.

Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science was conducted up to September 2024.

Importance of hip capsular repair in total hip arthroplasty (THA) via the posterior lateral approach: a five year retrospective cohort study.

Purpose: This study aims to assess the impact of repairing the hip joint capsule during posterior-lateral approach total hip arthroplasty (THA) on postoperative hip joint function and late dislocation incidence.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study included 413 patients, divided into experimental (hip joint capsule repair, n = 204) and control (hip joint capsule excision, n = 209) groups. Patients were followed for five years, evaluating postoperative hip range of motion (ROM), dislocation rate, VAS and HHS scores, inflammatory and coagulation markers, hospitalization, blood loss, and body composition.
