RESUMEN

@#In tbhe assessment of prosthetic joint pains, differentiating between aseptic loosening and infection can be challenging due to their similarities in clinical presentation and histopathology. Combined radiolabeled leukocyte and bone marrow scintigraphy and SPECT/CT is considered the most suitable nuclear imaging modality for this purpose. However, this is infrequently performed in our local setting. We present two cases where these studies were appropriately performed with different scan outcomes. The first case involved a 67-year-old male with painful right knee prosthesis and an alleged history of recurrent periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). The leukocyte tagging scan and marrow scan images were found to be congruent, which was more compatible with aseptic loosening. No emergent surgical intervention was done in our hospital, and the patient returned to this home territory for further management. The second case was a 72-year-old male with progressive pain in his left prosthetic hiip which began after surgery a year prior. Scan images were incongruent, suggestive of PJI; this was confired on joint aspiration and eventual surgical revision. Despite this imaging study's high sensitvity and high specificity, it has not been well-received in management algorihms of PJI. Collaboration between clinicans and nuclear imaging specilists is key in increasing the general use of these procedures.

RESUMEN

Artificial prosthetic material is one of the important factors determining the effect of artificial hip replacement.There are mainly three types of interfaces in the prosthetic materials: the fixed in-terface,the friction interface,and the interface between the modular prostheses.Porous metals improve the osseointegration of the bio-logical fixed interface.High crosslinking polyethylene and composite ceramics significantly reduce the wear of the friction interface.The modular prostheses of ceramic ball head can reduce the wear particles and corrosion.However,the prosthesis loosening,wear and metal corrosion are still the most important factors affecting the medium-long term effects of artificial hip replacement.This article reviews the research progress of artificial hip prosthesis materials from the perspective of the three prosthetic interfaces.
