“…This functional advantage over metallic wires allows practitioners to practice variablemodulus orthodontic technique (6,7). These wires may also provide a viable alternative in patients allergic to nickel (8)(9)(10).…”

“…Several studies had found a two-to tenfold higher frequency of metal hypersensitivity in females than in male patients [20][21][22][23][24]. It is believed that the female preponderance is caused by the more frequent exposure of women to metals by using earrings, ear piercing [11,[26][27][28][29][30][31][32], and other jewelry [11,[26][27][28][29][30].…”

Intraosseous lymphocytic infiltrates after hip resurfacing arthroplasty

To identify a possible role of lymphocytic infiltrates in failure mechanism of the metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty, the extent of lymphocytic infiltration was compared with reasons for prosthesis failure in a series of retrieval specimens. One hundred eighty-one femoral head and neck remnants were subjected to thorough analysis of histological findings and clinical data. Lymphocytic infiltrates were considered weak to moderate in 52 (28.7%) and excessive in ten (5.5%) cases. Six cases with excessive lymphocytic infiltrates belonged to the group of 33 (18.2%) revisions without obvious cause (periprosthetic fracture, component loosening, and infection) for prosthesis failure. Excessive lymphocytic infiltrates were strongly linked to the presence of proliferative desquamative synovitis (p < 0.0001). Both the excessive lymphocytic infiltrates and proliferative desquamative synovitis were associated with female gender (p < 0.05). We hypothesize that a specific cause of groin pain might be related to excessive intraosseous lymphocytic infiltrates and explained possibly by the hypersensitivity reaction of the delayed type after the hip resurfacing arthroplasty. Proliferative desquamative synovitis might constitute another morphologic feature associated with the delayed type hypersensitivity reaction.

“…Le chrome est également un allergène usuel. En chirurgie, que ce soit en orthopédie [3][4][5][6][7] ou en orthodontie [8] notamment, des réactions allergiques ont été rapportées à type d'éruption cutanée parfois fistulisantes amenant à réintervenir pour changer la prothèse [4]. D'autres réactions ont pu être observées lors de l'utilisation d'implants métalliques [9] ou de matériel chirurgical contenant du nickel [10].…”
