Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate that effect of manual therapy using pelvic compression belt on hip abductor strength and balance ability in total knee replacement (TKR) patients. Methods: The subjects consisted of twenty two post-TKR patients. Participants were randomly assigned to a pelvic belt group (n=11) and a placebo group (n=11). All participants underwent manual therapy including range of motion exercise, soft tissue mobilization around knee joint, strengthening exercise (Quad set, SLR, sidelying hip abduction, standing hamstring curls, sitting knee extension, step-up, wall slide to $45^{\circ}$ knee flexion). Manual therapy was executed five times a week for 2 weeks. Outcome measures included hip abductor strength by using Biodex system 4 pro, anterior to posterior balance, medial to lateral balance, total balance by using Biodex balance system SD. Results: After the completion of the manual therapy, hip abductor strength was showed statistically significant improvements in pelvic belt group (p<.05). Anterior to posterior balance, medial to lateral balance, total balance were showed statistically significant improvements in pelvic belt group and placebo group (p<.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in hip abductor strength and there was no statistically significant difference in balance. Conclusions: This results suggest that manual therapy using pelvic compression belt has could be used for selective muscle activation of the hip abductor muscle and has useful in hip abductor strength and balance ability in TKR patients.

A 3-year-old, 26 kg, castrated male Chow Chow was presented for assessment of weight-bearing lameness of the left hind limb. The patient had a history of triple pelvic osteotomy on the left side to correct hip dysplasia 2 years prior to his presentation of clinical signs and underwent total hip replacement on the right coxofemoral joint 1 year later. Upon physical examination, pain and crepitus were noted on the left hip joint during extension. Radiological examination revealed coxofemoral joint subluxation and moderate degenerative bone changes on the left hip joint and pelvic axis, which relates to acetabular angles that were changed after triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO). Preoperative computed tomography was used for 3-dimensional printing to establish an accurate surgical plan. The changed angles of the acetabulum after TPO were evaluated, and rehearsal surgery was performed using a 3-demensional printing bone model. Three months after the THR surgery, the function of the affected limb had improved, with no lameness. Complications, such as luxation and implant failure, were not observed until 6 months after the operation. Accurate evaluation of acetabulum angles and rehearsal surgery using a 3D-printed bone model is effective for total hip replacement after unsuccessful TPO.

Background: The purpose of this study is to analyze the current status and factors of elderly patients' hospitalization for hip replacement, knee replacement, and general spine surgery. Methods: National health insurance data in 2018 was provided by the National Health Insurance Service. We used multiple regression to analyze factors associated with the medical utilization of hip replacement, knee replacement, and general spine surgery in elderly patients over 65 years old. The dependent variables are the length of stay and total health expenditure. The independent variables are the demographic-social factors (sex, age, region, insurance type, income level) and surgery-related factors (institution type, location of the hospital, surgery classification). Results: The most common factor affecting surgery was the location of medical institutions. Compared with the medical institutions located in metropolitan, the length of stay in rural medical institutions was higher and total health expenditure was lower. The lower quartile of income, the higher the length of stay and total health expenditure. In addition, the variables of age, type of health insurance, and type of medical institution were statistically significant. Conclusion: In this study, we confirmed the effect of sociodemographic factors and medical institution factors on the Healthcare Utilization of spinal and joint surgery.

The indications for total hip replacement are increasing and not limited to osteoarthritis. Total hip replacement may also be done for trauma and pathological fractures in patients otherwise physiologically fit and active. This trend has led to an inevitable rise in complications such as periprosthetic femoral fracture. Periprosthetic femoral fracture can be challenging due to poor bone quality, osteoporosis, and stress fractures. We present a case of periprosthetic femoral fracture in a 71-year-old woman with some components of an atypical femoral fracture. The fracture was internally fixed but was subsequently complicated by infection, implant failure needing revision, and later stress fracture. She was on a bisphosphonate after her index total hip replacement surgery for an impending pathological left proximal femur fracture, and this may have caused the later stress fracture. Unfortunately, she then experienced implant breakage (nonunion), which was treated with a biplanar locking plate and bone grafting. The patient finally regained her premorbid mobility 13 months after the last surgery and progressed satisfactorily towards bony union.

This research investigates the possibility of using the postural sway of patients as a reference for measruing the progress of the disease and healing of patients who received total hip replacement; the progress of the disease by X-ray pictures, the pain felt by the patients, and the difficulties encountered in moving the joints. The measurements on the force platform were taken during a 25 second period standing on both feet and during a 5 second period standing on one foot with both eyes open. The result of the research showed that the trace and area of the overall length of postural sway was a good indicator which represented the healing progress of the patients who received total hip replacement, and the weakening of the muscles and the recovery process for 3 or 4 month after receiving the operation, which did not appear on X-ray pictures, were exhibited on the postural sway. Finally, standing on a single foot represented the healing progress much better than standing on both feet.

Total Hip Replacement(THR) is a surgical procedure that replaces a diseased hip joint with a prosthesis. A plastic or metal cup forms the socket, and the head of the femur is replaced by a metal ball on a stem placed inside the femur. Due to the various types and shapes of human hip joint of every individual, a selected commercial implant sometimes may not be the best-fit to a patient, or it cannot be applied because of its discrepancy. Hence extracting geometry parameters of hip joint is one of the most crucial processes in designing custom-made implants. This paper describes the framework of a methodology to extract the geometric parameters of the hip joint. The parameters include anatomical axis, femoral head, head offset length, femoral neck, neck shaft angle, anteversion, acetabulum, and canal flare index. The proposed system automatically recommends the size and shape of a custom-made hip implant with respect to the patient's individual anatomy from 3D models of hip structures. The proposed procedure creating these custom-made implants with some typical examples is precisely presented and discussed in this paper.

본 증례는 약 30년전 임신 후부터 강직성 척추염의 증상이 나타나기 시작하였고, 15년 전부터 경추 부까지 강직이 진행되었으며, 10년전부터 고관절의 침습이 나타났고 이후 계속 강직이 진행되어 좌측 고관절에 전치환술을 시행하고 2주후 본원에 내원한 만성 강직성 척추염 환자로서, 그동안 적절한 치료를 꾸준히 받아오지 못하여 척추부 및 고관절의 강직과 흉협통 뿐 아니라 견관절, 슬관절 및 거의 전신관절에 강직과 통증이 나타났고 식욕부진, 소화 장애와 전신피로감까지 호소하여 증상의 별다른 호진을 기대하기 힘들 것으로 예상하였으나 64일간 본원에 입원하여 한의학적인 치료와 운동요법 및 물리요법으로 이학적 검사상의 호전과 전신증상의 호전을 보였다. 식욕부진, 소화불량, 피로감, 체중감소, 빈혈, 발열(發熱), 도한(盜汗) 등 만성 강직성 척추염 환자에게서 나타날 수 있는 전신증상은 한의학에서 허증(虛證)의 범주에 가깝고, 변증시치를 통한 한의학적인 치료로 전신증상의 개선을 도모하면서 꾸준한 운동치료, 호흡치료 등의 재활치료를 병행한다면 보다 나은 임상적 치료효능을 거둘 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of adding hip abductor strengthening to conventional rehabilitation on muscle strength and physical function following total knee replacement (TKR) for knee osteoarthritis. Design: Randomized controlled trial Methods: Thirty-five participants were randomly allocated to exercise groups I (n=18) and II (n=17). Group I underwent hip abductor training and conventional rehabilitation for 30 min per day, 5 days per week for 4 weeks. Group II underwent conventional rehabilitation for 30 min per day, 5 days per week for 4 weeks. The participants in both groups also received continuous passive motion therapy for 15 min per day, 5 days per week for 4 weeks. To investigate the effect of the intervention, the Biodex dynamometer was used to measure the peak torque of both knee extensors and hip abductors. This study used the Knee Outcome Survey-Activities of Daily Living Scale (KOS-ADLS) to assess physical function, as well as the figure-of-8 walk test (F8W) and the stair climb test (SCT). Results: According to the interventions, exercise groups I and II showed significantly improved muscle strength and KOS-ADLS, F8W, and SCT scores (p<0.001). Compared with that of exercise group II, exercise group I showed significantly improved hip abductor strength (p<0.001) and KOS-ADLS, F8W, and SCT scores (p<0.05). Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that the combination of hip abductor strengthening and conventional rehabilitation is an effective exercise method to increase hip abductor muscle strength and physical function after TKR.
