Features: The book's first feature is its comprehensive foundational content, with a focus on hip joint anatomy, biomechanics, and material mechanics, providing readers with a solid knowledge base before performing this surgery. The second feature is its in-depth discussion from various perspectives on the composition, types, indications, implantation techniques of artificial joints, the advantages and disadvantages of cemented and biological fixation, as well as the application characteristics of special diseases such as tumors and avascular necrosis of the femoral head. The book also elaborates on the prevention and treatment methods of potential complications that may occur during surgery, such as deep vein thrombosis, fat embolism syndrome, and infection. Additionally, it proposes diagnostic methods and preventive measures for postoperative implant-related issues like loosening, migration, stem fractures, and local osteoporosis. The book explores the prospects of metal-metal prostheses, which are still subject to differing opinions. Finally, it introduces multiple methods for evaluating total hip arthroplasty and presents its own insights. The book consists of 20 chapters, approximately 600,000 words, and over 200 illustrations, making it rich in content, with fluent writing and a well-illustrated format.
[Preface] Osteoarthritis and osteoporosis are significant orthopedic diseases. Many countries worldwide have developed development plans for the next decade to address these conditions. Currently, total hip arthroplasty remains a crucial treatment method for such diseases. In the near future, hip surgery may see further advancements. Genetic regulation and the application of gene technology could reduce the incidence of osteoarthritis, while tissue engineering techniques may repair damaged cartilage and bone tissue using autologous stem cells. Despite these advancements, China, with its large population and aging society, is projected to have 300 million people aged 60 and above within the next 20 years. Total hip arthroplasty will still be one of the primary methods for treating hip diseases, with revision surgeries steadily increasing. Improving the safety of total hip arthroplasty, reducing surgical complications, extending prosthesis lifespan, and lowering medical costs remain significant challenges.
On September 1, 2002, the State Council of China promulgated the "Medical Malpractice Regulations," urgently calling for standardized medical technology. Total hip arthroplasty is a high-tech, high-risk surgery, requiring stringent demands of orthopedic surgeons who perform it. It necessitates 5 to 10 years or longer of testing and follow-up. Surgeons must not only consider the selection of surgical indications, including age, gender, weight, and the disease being treated, but also preoperative prosthesis selection, intraoperative muscle reconstruction, limb balance, neuromuscular control, and postoperative infection prevention. Orthopedic surgeons should also possess knowledge in fields such as the biomechanics and material mechanics of artificial joints, rehabilitation medicine, and be aware of the latest advancements and research in total hip arthroplasty.
Methodologically, orthopedic surgeons specializing in artificial hip joints should be familiar with hip joint anatomy, the selection of various surgical incisions, positioning techniques, and sterile procedures. Preoperative and postoperative radiological assessments are essential, including the evaluation of prosthesis migration, acetabular wear, labrum assessment, and the use of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to measure and assess bone quality around the prosthesis.
