Teeth once designated obsolete for rehabilitation and deemed for extraction should be re-evaluated for salvaging two thirds or even one third component of the individual teeth. Advances in dentistry, as well as the increased desire of patients to maintain their dentition, have lead to treatment of teeth that once would have been removed. In order to carry out this present day mandate, periodontally diseased teeth with severe bone loss and/or mandibular molar teeth exhibiting furcation invasions may well be retained by removal of one or more of their roots. This article describes a simple procedure for root amputation in mandibular molar and its subsequent restorations. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/updcj.v1i1.13949 Update Dent.

We report the results of a new method of reconstructing the femur in 22 patients with severe bone loss having revision hip arthroplasty. The calcar and metaphysis were reconstructed with cortico-cancellous autograft around a new modular hip replacement. The metaphyseal portion of the implant is free to slide on the stem and therefore loads the graft and, we believe, encourages bone graft incorporation. The stem gains cementless fixation distal to the area of bone loss, thus preventing fractures and allowing the areas of bone loss to heal. At the time of review at a mean of 3 years follow-up there had been no revisions (since then there has been one re-revision due to recurrence of infection). The modified D'Aubigné and Postel hip score improved from 7.3 to 15. In 17 patients the graft has incorporated, in 5 it has partially resorbed but the prosthesis remains secure. We conclude that this is a relatively simple and successful technique for overcoming the problem of major femoral bone loss.

The optimum treatment for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) of the hip with substantial bone defects remains controversial. A retrospective assessment was performed for 182 patients treated for PJI with a two-stage protocol from 2005 to 2015. Implant removal and debridement were followed by Girdlestone arthroplasty or spacer implantation. The results of the Girdlestone and spacer groups were compared. There were 71 cases that received spacers, and 111 Girdlestone procedures were performed. After the first stage, 26.37% of cultures were negative, and among patients with a detected pathogen, methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism (41.79%). Acetabular and femoral bone defects, according to the Paprosky classification, were more severe in the Girdlestone group (P<0.05). During the follow-up (mean, 5.95 years), the overall incidence of complications was 21.42%. The mean Harris hip score was significantly lower in the Girdlestone group (68.39 vs 77.79; P<0.0001). The infection recurrence rate reached 8.79%. Despite satisfactory infection control, the number of complications and poor functional outcomes associated with resection arthroplasty indicate the necessity for development of different approaches for patients with advanced bone loss.
