Surgical pathology of joint prostheses. Seminars in orthopaedic pathology
Abstract
Joint arthroplasty is one of the most common orthopaedic surgical procedures that bring significant benefit to the patient and improve the life style for younger and more physically active population. Problems associated with joint prostheses include complications, which can be mechanical or biological in etiology. Surgical pathology is useful in investigating wear debris reaction, infection, delayed hypersensitivity reaction and development of an associated sarcoma. Accurate recognition of the morphologic manifestations of these disorders is very important and help to improve treatment and management of these patients.
