OSTEOLYSIS AND LOOSENING OF total hip arthroplasty IMPLANTS.pptx by dr vasu ...Vasu Srivastava
Aseptic Loosening of implants is caused by osteolysis. It is most significant factor limiting longevity of THA. Revision for loosening is 4x higher than next leading cause (dislocation at 13.6%), and its particularly problematic in younger patients [2].
Osteolysis is bone resorption caused by the body’s response to particulate debris generated as the THA implant wears out. Motion between any two components of the prosthesis (ie the femoral head and the acetabuluar liner, the head-neck junction of the femoral stem, or the liner and shell of the acetabulum) generates debris that floats around the joint. This debris stimulates a host response. Particles of metal, poly, or cement can all cause osteolysis, albeit different types of reaction. Osteolysis is important because it leads to implant loosening and/or periprosthetic fractures.
While osteolysis is the primary cause of loosening, infection must be part of the differential diagnosis.
Historical Perspective: Osteolysis was first described by Harris in 1976 and it was attributed to “cement disease” [3], because it was observed around the femoral component, and this was what started the drive for cementless implants. Yet after significant R&D, and development of cementless implants, osteolysis was still seen around the implants [4], and the histology was similar between cemented [5] and cementless implants [6]. Surgeons then looked for another cause of osteolysis and recognized that it was produced by wear particles.
STAGES OF OSTEOLYSIS
1) Debris production (ie poly wear) is the initial stage (we talk about metal debris in a separate section because it behaves totally differently, see section). Particulate debris in THA is produced by Abrasive and Adhesive wear (whereas the TKA produces delaminating wear: small fissures form within the poly).
▪ Adhesive wear is two surfaces bonding together causing the softer material to “peel” off as a thin film onto the harder surface during motion.
Volumetric wear is a specific type of adhesive wear, and it occurs as the femoral head articulates with the cup liner, and the amount of wear is proportional to the femoral head radius squared (therefore larger femoral head = more wear..this is why the initial Charnley implants, which used conventional poly, used a size 22 femoral head). Linear wear is caused by focused stress on a isolated part of the poly due to abnormal loading.
▪ Abrasive wear occurs when a harder surface (which is never completely smooth) cuts or ploughs through a softer surface, like a cheese grater. Both cause particle formation. Most wear occurs superiorly in the cup (or at the rim in cases of impingement).
The conventional PE wear from articulating with a Cobalt-chrome head is 0.10 mm/year. The ultramolecular weight poly (UMWPE, also known as highly-crosslinked poly) wear is about 0.02 mm/year. What is the difference between conventional and UMWPE?

Biologic Knee Replacement (BKR) is our approach to treating knee injuries, from trauma to arthritis, and is designed to help people delay, or even avoid, artificial knee replacement. BKR is a scientifically-proven collection of our out-patient surgical techniques and procedures and consists of any combination of meniscus transplantation, articular cartilage paste grafting, ligament replacement as explained in further detail below. Being "bone on bone" does not always mean that the joint needs to be artificially replaced, often the "bone on bone" is isolated to a portion of the knee joint and this can be repaired using Biologic Knee Replacement.
The naso-orbitoethmoid complex (NOE) fracture represents the most wearisome and challenging of all facial fractures due to the complexity and intricacy of its surgical & anatomic components. A good working knowledge with regards its surgical anatomy, clinical features, sequence of treatment & surgical approaches, potential pitfalls in its treatment & postoperative consideration,. Appropriate diagnosis and timely treatment is crucial to avoid unfavorable & difficult to treat sequelae.
By replacing all or a portion of the meniscus with donor cartilage, the patient can regain the natural “shock absorber” in the knee and experience many additional years of activity, even in the presence of arthritis. Being "bone on bone" does not always mean that the joint needs to be artificially replaced, often the "bone on bone" is isolated to a portion of the knee joint and this can be repaired using meniscus transplant alone or in combination with any of the Biologic Knee Replacement procedures.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

DISCUSSION
“In summary, we believe the suture button device represents a viable
alternative to screw fixation for syndesmosis injuries.
The disrupted syndesmotic relationships were normalised by the
application of the suture button and remained within normal limits
through the study period in all cases.
Because of the ease of use of the device and the ability to allow full
weightbearing without concerns about implant breakage, we feel that
suture-button fixation is superior to conventional metallic screws.”
