There is an Exact-Fit hip replacement system. Try googling and seeing if there is a similar system from that company for the knee.

Not sure what this is, is it short for another word?
the patient’s x-rays today shows that he has a total hip replacement in place; the lino looks fine with no eccentric wear.

I do not see any gross radiolucency; there is may be some small s/l 'lucenary' (is this right?) at the distal aspect of the tip of the stem.
Thanks for your help

an "autograft cadaveric pulmonary valve replacement?" (sm)
Subject: an "autograft cadaveric pulmonary valve replacement?" (sm)
relatively new to cardiology- it sounds like the doc is saying that the patient is status post "aortic valve autograft cadaveric pulmonary valve replacement."
Am I just misunderstanding the terms, or am I mishearing what she's saying? I thought (could be mistaken?) that autograft meant it was grafted in from somewhere in your own body, and cadaveric meant it was taken from a cadaver. So how can a replacement be both autograft and cadaveric?
