Track: Advances in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
Total and partial replacement of the hip and knee remains among the most consistently successful procedures in orthopedic surgery, yet the field continues to evolve as new implants, techniques, and evidence reshape practice. This session brings together orthopedic surgeons and researchers to examine current best practices in primary arthroplasty, closely tied to advances in implant design, biomaterials, and biomechanics and the expanding use of robotic and computer-assisted surgery to improve precision and reproducibility.
Key Topics and Highlights:
Implant Selection and Fixation Strategy: Choosing the right implant and fixation method significantly affects long-term outcomes. This sub-topic examines current evidence guiding component selection across different patient profiles.
Surgical Approach and Technique: Advances in surgical approach are reducing tissue trauma and accelerating recovery. This subtopic explores current technique evolution, including its overlap with minimally invasive and arthroscopic techniques.
Patient-Specific Treatment Planning: Age, activity level, and bone quality increasingly inform individualized surgical planning. This subtopic addresses how patient-specific factors shape implant and technique decisions.
Outcomes Data and Implant Survivorship: Multi-center registries offer growing insight into long-term implant performance. This subtopic reviews current survivorship data and its implications for reducing future revision rates.
Reducing Complications in Primary Arthroplasty: Improving primary surgical technique is one of the most effective ways to reduce downstream complications addressed in revision arthroplasty and complication management. This subtopic covers current complication-prevention strategies.
If your research contributes to advancing hip and knee arthroplasty, we welcome you to submit an abstract and share your findings with a global community of orthopedic surgeons and researchers shaping the future of joint reconstruction.
