“…Definite contraindications for THA include; the presence of an active infection in the hips or other areas outside the hip, and the presence of systemic diseases which will significantly increase the morbidity or mortality rate of the patient [36]. Charcot joint, loss of abductor muscles, rapidly progressive neurological diseases, dementia and successful hip arthrodesis are reported to be relatively contraindicated [37].…”

The hip joint bears the most load in the human body. For this reason, it carries the potential risk of degenerative arthritis in individuals with a functionally active lifestyle. The main goal in the treatment of degenerative arthritis is to achieve pain relief and create a hip joint range of motion close to normal. Even today, it is not possible to transform the hip joint, which has been degenerated due to several reasons and worn out due to the physiological properties of the cartilage structure, back to its natural state. Osteotomies, resection arthroplasties and hip arthrodeses, which are designed to compensate the load distribution affecting the hip and relieve the pain, are still employed methods. Total hip arthroplasty, on the other hand, is an alternative solution for the problem. Cemented, cementless and hybrid methods are widely used for this purpose in total hip arthroplasties. The purpose of hip prosthesis surgery is to shape the bone tips and to fill the fragments with various materials and keep these two structures as separate surfaces. Total hip arthroplasty consists of a femoral component placed in the medullas of the femur and an acetabular component placed in the acetabulum. In this article we will review the aims, causes, types and techniques of total hip arthroplasty.

“…As the most common treatment for end-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA), TKA played an important part in improving patient-reported outcomes with respect to pain relief, functional restoration, and higher quality of life. Apart from primary OA, some other diagnoses are also the potential underlying indications of TKA, including inflammatory arthritis, fracture (post-traumatic OA and/or deformity), dysplasia, and malignancy [2,3]. Nowadays, the global demand for TKA is increasing at a dramatic rate due to the growing prevalence of knee arthritis.…”

Background The use of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in treatment of chronic degenerative pathologies of the knee has boasted of an experience of 50 years. The aim of this bibliometric and visualized study is to comprehensively examine the current status and global trends of TKA research. Methods Publications related to TKA research from 2010 to 2019 were retrieved from Web of Science database, and then analyzed through bibliometric methodology. As for the visualized study, the software VOS viewer was utilized for bibliographic coupling, coauthorship, cociation, and co-occurrence analysis, along with further simulation of publication trends in this field. Results A total of 8631 publications were eventually included. The number of publications tends to increased annually over the worldwide. The United States was the pioneer which has made tremendous contribution, with the most publications and citations, as well as the highest H-index. The JOURNAL OF ARTHROPLASTY has published most papers, while CLINICAL ORTHOPAEDICS AND RELATED RESEARCH has the highest citation frequency. Hospital for Special Surgery have made the greatest contribution when total publication number and coauthorship were taken together. Studies could be divided into five clusters: “alignment study”, “revision TKA study”, “complication study”, “rehabilitation study”, and “perioperative management study”, which have a trend of balanced development in this field. Conclusions There will be an increasing number of publications on TKA research according to the current global trends, and the United States maintained the leadership in this area. Additionally, a trend of balanced development may exist in the field of TKA research, accompanied with inherent changes of hotspots in each cluster.

“…Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered as the most common treatment for end-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA), which also makes great sense for some other underlying indications, including inflammatory arthritis, fracture (post-traumatic OA and/or deformity), dysplasia, and malignancy [1,2]. Contemporary TKA has evolved over the past 50 years since it was first designed at the Hospital for Special Surgery in early 1970s [3].…”

Study objective: The aim of this bibliometric and visualized study is to comprehensively examine the current status and global trends of TKA research.Methods: Publications related to TKA research from 2010 to 2019 were retrieved from Web of Science (WoS) and Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCIE) database, and then analyzed through bibliometric methodology. As for the visualized study, the software VOS viewer was utilized for bibliographic coupling, coauthorship, cociation, and co-occurrence analysis, along with further simulation of publication trends in this field.Results: A total of 8631 publications were eventually included.
