Uncemented #THA should be avoided in females >70.5yr due to increased risk of early PFFx. A sex-specific regimen for THA fixation can potentially reduce early THA revision rates markedly. authors.elsevier.com/a/1hlDe38vD36F…

This meta-analysis demonstrates that TXA use is associated with a reduced risk of PJI, approximately 0.4% reduction in PJI rates with TXA use. These findings provide even more data to support the routine use of TXA during primary THA and primary TKA. authors.elsevier.com/a/1j4pw38vD3A2…
