Article Abstract
Bacground: The use of cemented fixation is widely recommended in hip arthroplasty for hip fractures, although it is not used universally.
Methods: We describe the trends in cementing prevalence in hemiarthroplasty for hip fractures in Canada for patients ≥55 years old between April 2017 and March 2022.
Results: The national prevalence of cemented fixation increased from 43% in 2017/18 to 58% in 2021/22, but there was a large variety of both the baseline prevalence and the trends across the country and between individual hospitals. The proportion of surgeons only performing cementless fixation fell from 30% to 21% between 2018/19 and 2021/22.
Conclusions: As cemented fixation is now universally recommended, more coordination is needed to track these trends and to help drive implementation of this evidence-based practice across Canada.

Salvage Masquelet Technique for Insufficient Bone Regeneration Following Chipping and Lengthening in Tibial Nonunion: A Case Report.

BACKGROUND The treatment of nonunion with deformity and shortening remains a significant challenge in orthopedic surgery. The chipping and lengthening technique is used for bone reconstruction and new bone formation, without the need for bone grafting. However, inadequate bone regeneration can require additional treatment.

We report a unique case of bilateral femoral stem fractures in a patient with Dorr A femoral morphology, underscoring the need for a critical reassessment of implant selection strategies. The initial failure involved a cemented revision stem placed using the cement-within-cement technique combined with an extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO). A second revision was subsequently performed using a cortical window osteotomy and a distally fixed uncemented stem, which resulted in successful recovery.

Outcomes and Challenges of Optimal Fixation Selection for Metaphyseal Fixation Techniques in Revision Knee Arthroplasty According to Bone Defects: A Systematic Review.

Revision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA) is often complicated by metaphyseal bone loss, requiring stable fixation techniques to restore function and alignment. Metaphyseal sleeves and cones have shown promising clinical outcomes, particularly in cases of severe bone defects. However, no gold standard therapy has been established.

Objective: We aim to identify the characteristics and risk factors of intravascular cement leakage (CL) in cement-augmented fenestrated pedicle screw (CAFPS) insertion, particularly focusing on screw trajectory, bone density, and vertebral body volume.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted on 41 patients who underwent spinal fixation surgery with CAFPS from June 2022 to November 2024. Intravascular cement leakage (CL) was assessed using postoperative computed tomography (CT) scans.
