“…Moreover, patients receiving mobile articular spacers showed a better functional outcome at the final follow-up. In this procedure, before undergoing autoclaving, the infected femoral component should be mechanically cleaned of all cement and tissue [30,[37][38][39]. The autoclave should be near the operating room to facilitate aseptic delivery to the sterile field; the use of a rigid, re-usable sterilization container system is recommended [30].…”

“…Despite this, tele-orthopedics was found to be disruptive as it requires the redesign of many care processes [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ]. Moreover, the absence of strong evidence on the clinical and medicolegal problems that the use of telemedicine can determine represents a weakness while spreading tele-orthopedics [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ].…”

“…Moreover, in the elderly population osteopenia and red to yellow bone marrow replacement precludes the harvesting of graft from the iliac crest. In these cases, the RIA system from the contralateral femur (as we previously described in our experience [ 20 , 45 ]) represents a wise choice, together with the use of growth factors and scaffolds. This was known as the triangular concept, afterwards modified by Giannoudis et al [ 9 ] into the “Diamond concept”, with the addition of mechanical stability to these three dimensions of biological enhancement of bone healing, highlighting the fundamental role of stability in these fractures.…”

“…On the other hand, trochanteric fractures, thanks to a better bone vascularization of this anatomical region and the smaller deforming moments here acting, are considerably less frequently involved in the above-mentioned complications. However, in selected cases, including fractures with posteromedial wall comminution, severe osteoporotic bone, inaccurate fracture reduction and poor endomedullary nail implantation, a non-union incidence of 1-2% is reported [18][19][20][21].…”
