<title>Ankylosing Spondylitis of the hip Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4436.html</link>
<description>hip joint:
 &lt;br&gt;           - is affected in upto 50 % of patients with AS, and when it occurs it is often bilateral;
 &lt;br&gt;         - protrusio and hip flexion contractures are common;
 &lt;br&gt;           - heterotopic ossification may follow THR;
 &lt;br&gt;           - total hip replacement:
 &lt;br&gt;                   - hetertopic ossification;
&lt;br&gt;                          - occurs in 20-40 % of hip replacements and is more common w/ trochanteric osteotomy;
&lt;br&gt;                    - to avoid heterotopic ossification consider insertion of a cemented acetabular
 component followed by 750 rads around the component;

<title>Anterior Smith Peterson Approach to the Hip Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4402.html</link>
<description>- Smith Petersen improved &amp; revived the anterior iliofemoral approach;
&lt;br&gt;    - entire ilium and hip joint can be reached thru iliac part of incision;
&lt;br&gt;    - with this approach there is a need for extensive detachment of tendinous insertions &amp; retraction of muscle, with
 potential damage to femoral artery and nerve and traction on lateral femoral cutaneous nerve;
 &lt;br&gt;   - among the indications for this approach are ganz osteotomy for DDH and posterior hip frx dislocations;

<title>Anterolateral Approach to the Hip Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4059.html</link>
<description>Discussion:
 - major problems with the Watson Jones technique are dealing w/ gluteus medius &amp; minimus, which lie over anteior
 capsule and must be damaged or cut to obtain adequate exposure;
 - original Charnely technique used anterolateral approach w/ pt supine, osteotomy of greater troch, &amp; ant dislocation of hip;
 - this approach is used less commonly now as result of problems related to reattachement of the greater trochanter;&lt;br&gt;

<description>Perioperative Prophylactic Antibiotics:
&lt;br&gt;    - it is essential that antibiotics be given prior to incision;
&lt;br&gt;    - in most cases, patients should receive 1-2 gm of IV Ancef 30 min prior to the incision&lt;br&gt;

<title>Arthrodesis Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4060.html</link>
<description>Discussion:
 - hip fusions acn occur spontaneously following childhood sepsis or after ORIF of acetabular fractures (secondary to heterotopic bone).
&lt;br&gt;    - they also occur spontaneously due to ankylosing spondylitis;
&lt;br&gt;    - surgical fusions are performed for young adults with advanced arthritis;
&lt;br&gt;- indications:
&lt;br&gt;            - desire to return to near-normal physical activity with manual labor;
&lt;br&gt;            - 20 yrs years after surgery, 80% of pts w/ hip arthrodesis performed at relatively young age
 were working &amp; satisfied w/ their results;
&lt;br&gt;            - relief of pain;
&lt;br&gt;            - young male;

<title>Arthroscopy of the Hip Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4061.html</link>
<description>Indications:
 &lt;br&gt;         - evaluation of hip pain- candidates are patients with nonspecific radiographic findings and reproducible, functionally-limiting physical signs and symptoms.
 &lt;br&gt;                 - the false negative rate of plain x-ray, bone scan, CT, arthrogram, and routine MRI has been quoted as high as 80% in some patient populations.
 &lt;br&gt;                 - gadolinium enhanced MRI demonstrated a sensitivity of 55% for all intra-articular pathology and 74% for labral
 tears in patients where other modalities had failed to reveal a source of pain.

<title>Aspiration of the Hip Joint Wheeless</title>
<link>http://www.orthopaedicweblinks.com/Detailed/4398.html</link>
<description>anterior approach:
&lt;br&gt;          - femoral artery may be palpated in femoral triangle, &amp; may be used as a guide in aspirating the hip joint;
&lt;br&gt;          - palpate the femoral pulse just as it exits the inguinal ligament;
&lt;br&gt;          - entry point is one inch lateral to the artery (at the inguinal ligament) and one inch below the inguinal ligament;
&lt;br&gt;                  - going lateral 1 inch will also make entry site approx 1 in below ligament;
&lt;br&gt;                  - needle entry is then straight down into the lateral half of the joint cavity;
