Most hip dislocations occur within the first 3 months after surgery. Risk factors for dislocation include surgical approach, soft tissue tension, component malposition, and femoral head size. Treatment depends on the cause but may include closed reduction, bracing, modular components, larger heads, constrained liners, or soft tissue reinforcement. Surgeon experience also impacts dislocation rates.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

MAXCURE HOSPITALS
HITECH CITY, HYDERABAD
2. Instability is one of the most common complications of THA
Dislocation rate of :
Primary THR : 3.2%
Revision THR : 7.4%
3. Most of dislocations occur within the first 3 months following
surgery
50%-70% of dislocations occur within the first 5 week to 3 months
postoperatively, and more than 3/4 th of dislocations occur within
the first year following surgery.
The cumulative risk of dislocation does not remain constant
following THA, increasing with time due to trauma, polyethylene
wear, increased pseudocapsule laxity and deteriorating muscle
strength
The cumulative risk of dislocation within the first postoperative
month is 1% and within the first year approximately 2% . Thereafter,
the cumulative risk continuously increases by approximately 1% per
5-year period and amounts to approximately 7% after 25 years
4. Late dislocations are caused by progressive improvement in motion after surgery
Late dislocations are more likely to be come recurrent and require surgical intervention
5. ● Cranial dislocation
– Excessive inclination of the cup, abductor insufficiency, polyethylene wear
– Dislocation along with adduction of the extended hip joint
● Dorsal dislocation
– Insufficient anteversion or retroversion of the cup, joint hyperlaxity, primary or
secondary impingement
– Dislocation with internal rotation and adduction of the flexed hip joint or with deep
flexion
● Anterior dislocation
– Excessive combined antetorsion of stem and cup, joint hyperlaxity, primary or
secondary impingement
– External rotation and adduction of the extended hip joint.
6.
7. Positional dislocations had a reoperative rate of 17%
Soft tissue imbalance had a reoperative rate of 46%, and 15% of
these hips ultimately underwent resection arthroplasty.
Component malposition had a reoperative rate of 77%, and in 33% of
those hips the final result was a resection arthroplasty.
10. EPIDEMILOGICAL FACTORS
FEMALE GENDER
AGE > 80
NEUROMUSCULAR DISORDERS
COGNITIVE DISORDERS
ALCOHOLISM
PREVIOUS HIP SURGERY
PRIOR HIP FRACTURE
PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS OF OSTEONECROSIS
INFLAMMATORY ARTHRITIS
12. SURGICAL APPROACH
Dislocation rates of :
1.27% for Trans-Trochanteric,
3.23% for posterior (2.03% with capsular repair),
2.18% for anterolateral
0.55% for the direct lateral approach
13. 75% to 90% of dislocations are in the posterior direction, thus
surgical approaches that compromise posterior soft tissues
theoretically could contribute to posterior instability
Therefore, when risk of dislocation is of particular concern, the
posterior approach historically has been the least favoured.
With adequate soft tissue repair there is ten fold reduction in
dislocation rates ( 4.46% to 0.4%)
14. SOFT TISSUE TENSION
Soft tissue tension, influenced by the
Joint capsule
Short external rotators and gluteal muscles
Femoral offset
Reconstruction of the posterior capsule
and short external rotators and restoration of femoral offset has
been shown to significantly reduce dislocation rate
15. FEMORAL HEAD SIZE
The larger the femoral head,
the further it must sublux
before it can dislocate, a
distance referred to as the
Jump distance.
Berry et al[29] in a study of
21047 THAs, found a
significantly decreased rate of
dislocation with the use of
larger femoral heads in all
surgical approaches.
16.
17. Modular femoral head components that have extension or
SKIRT to provide additional neck length :
Reduce head to neck diameter
Reduce ROM
Reduce Stability
18. COMPONENT MALPOSITION
Component malposition is the most common cause of instability following
THA.
Excessive anteversion of the acetabulum may result in anterior dislocation
Excessive retroversion may result in posterior dislocation
Excessive inclination of the cup can lead to superior dislocation with
abduction
If cup is inclined almost horizontally, impingement can occur in flexion
and hip dislocates posteriorly.
19. Ali Khan et al found that the most common surgical error was placement of the acetabular
component in excessive anteversion and abduction
Forward rotation of the pelvis must be taken into account, or excessive retroversion of the cup
can result
In lateral position :
Women with broad hips and narrow shoulders there is a tendency to implant the cup more
horizontally
Men with narrow pelvis and broad shoulders there is tendency to implant the cup more vertically
Placement of acetabular component in orientation relative to the operating table produces
inadvertent retroversion relative to pelvis
20. SAFE RANGE
ANTEVERSION OF 15° ± 10°
INCLINATION OF 40° ± 10°
Dislocation rate with cup in safe range is 1.5%, whereas
6.1% of those outside this safe range
Lowest risk values for dislocation were 15deg anteversion
and 45 deg of inclination
21. COMBINED ANTEVERSION
Sum of ante version of cup and stem
Total of 35 deg
Acceptable range 25 to 50
Dorr proposed the so-called “stem-first” procedure for the
CA technique in which the stem is set first, and cup
alignment is determined to consider the target CA value.
22. RANAWAT TEST FOR CA
CA can be easily checked intraoperatively by internally rotating the
femur until the neck of the prosthesis is perpendicular to the opening
plane of the cup.
24. A positive internal rotation test is indicative of proper healing of the
posterior soft tissue, which includes the capsule and short external
rotators, with a specificity of 100%.
The high sensitivity and specificity of the internal rotation test for the
healed capsule/tendon unit makes it a clinically useful test during
the physical examination to demonstrate an appropriate repair and
thus safely discontinue hip precautions, thereby allowing patients to
return to full activities of daily living.
25. IMPINGEMENT
Bone or cement protruding beyond the flat surface of the
cup; it serves as a fulcrum to dislocate the hip in the
direction opposite to its location.
Residual osteophytes
Capsular scar tissue
Heterotopic ossification
Impingement of femoral neck on liner elevation
26.
27. Surgeon experience
The rate of dislocation has an inverse relationship to the experience
of the surgeon.
For every ten primary arthroplasties performed yearly, there is a
50% reduction in the postoperative dislocation rate
29. CLOSED REDUCTION
If the components are in satisfactory position, closed
reduction is followed by a period of bed rest.
Abduction Orthosis : maintain hip in 20 deg abduction and
prevent flexion more than 60 deg
immobilisation for 6 weeks to 3 months is recommended
30. MODULAR COMPONENT EXCHANGE
Increasing femoral head size
Increasing neck length
Various liner options.
Minor malposition of a acetabular component can be managed with changing the position
of the liner or adding an elevated rim liner
Inadequate femoral neck length require exchange of modular head or revision of femoral
component.
MALPOSITION OF MORE THAN 10 DEGREES REQUIRE REVISION OF THE
COMPONENTS
31. Bipolar and tripolar arthroplasty
The bipolar arthroplasty component consists of a small femoral
head located inside a polyethylene shell that is then covered by a
larger femoral head. This theoretically allows motion between the
small femoral head and the liner as well as the larger femoral head
and the acetabulum.
Placement of a bipolar prosthesis inside an acetabular component
with a liner is known as a tripolar arthroplasty
32.
33. LARGE FEMORAL HEADS
Larger femoral heads (e.g. 36 mm) allow a wider mechanical range
of motion compared with smaller head diameters (e.g. 28 mm)
before the neck of the prosthesis strikes the rim of the acetabular
component .
In addition, the distance a larger femoral head has to move away
from the center of the acetabular component (“jumping distance“)
before it can dislocate over the rim of the cup is longer. Thus, a
larger head diameter offers better protection against dislocation
34. Kung et al evaluated 230 patients for the effect of femoral head size
(28 mm vs 36 mm) on postoperative stability.
At a mean follow up of 27 mo, they found that the use of the larger
femoral head brought the dislocation rate from 12.7% down to 0%.
However, if the abductor mechanism was absent, there was no
statistically significant reduction in dislocation rate.
35. Disadvantages:
Inlay thickness has to decrease with increasing head diameters
Increased abrasion along the head-neck plug connection
The stabilizing effect is lost in case of abductor insufficiency
Increased range of motion promotes secondary impingement with
resulting contact between proximal femur and pelvic bone.
For these reasons, femoral heads with diameters of more than 36 mm are
not normally used.
36. Constrained liners
Constrained liners are designed to physically resist dislocation of the
femoral head by locking the head into the acetabular cup
Surgical management of recurrent dislocation in the setting of
abductor deficiency, recurrent dislocation of undetermined etiology
and in patients with multiple dislocations due to neurological
impairment
liners offer the ability provide enhanced stability to a hip without the
need to revise well-fixed, well-positioned acetabular components
37.
38. Soft tissue reinforcement
Additional static restraint to augment the deficient posterior capsule or
enhance a deficient abductor mechanism
Lavigne et al were the first to report the use of an Achilles tendon
allograft placed between the greater trochanter and the ischium to
reduce the range of internal rotation and enhance stability.
Barbosa et al described the successful use of a synthetic ligament
prosthesis to treat patients with recurrent posterior dislocation of THA
Soft-tissue procedures provide an additional approach to achieving
THA stability in patients who are poor candidates for other options
such as constrained liners.
39. Greater trochanter advancementIncrease abductor tension and stability
Improve the resting length and functioning of the abductor
mechanism, which consequently affords increased hip
stability in 81%-90% of cases.
The advent of modular implants allows the surgeon to
increase femoral neck length to accomplish the same goals
without the potential morbidity of greater trochanteric
nonunion.
Used only as an option when there is proximal migration of an
ununited trochanter after a trochanteric osteotomy
