@JOrthoPres.bsky.social reported in cementless TKA increased interference fit does not enhance primary stability, but more plasticity in bone, potentially more damage. Optimizing interference fit is crucial to balance fixation and minimize damage buff.ly/Qvoo2iu

Using laser to treat implant infection? In @JOrthoPres.bsky.social this study reported Er:YAG laser therapy significantly reduced viable microorganisms on implant surfaces (9.1%) compared to mechanical cleaning alone (42.4%; p < 0.01).

What is the impact of femoral and tibial torsion on patellofemoral loading in individuals with patellofemoral instability? Find out in this recent paper by Bernhard Guggenberger & coauthors: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Alignment of the femur and tibia before and after personalization. This figure presents how the Torsion Tool changes the shape and alignment of the femur and tibia (red) compared to the generic torsion model (green). The left side represents the personalization for the femoral torsion model, while the right side represents the personalization for the torsion-informed model. The personalized models represent one participant with a 36° femoral version and 38° tibial torsion.

This study used caliberated CT to show that bone density changes across the innominate bone due to age and sex tend to vary between individuals, although consistent effects were seen at specific regions. buff.ly/j2Uhe4J
