PETER BREHM Workshop beim AE-Masterkurs Hüfte, Köln

Team PB — Fri, 02 Oct 2026 10:17:01 +0000

Wenn Standardimplantate an ihre Grenzen stoßen, sind individuelle Lösungen gefragt. Am 18.09.2026 beim AE-Masterkurs Hüfte der AE-Deutsche Gesellschaft für Endoprothetik e.V. in Köln stand genau diese klinische Fragestellung im Fokus unseres Hands-on-Workshops: „Vom Problemfall zur passgenauen Lösung: Beckenteilersatz in der Revision.“ In unserem 2-stündigen Hands-On-Workshop gaben wir zusammen mit Univ. Prof. Dr. med. Dieter C. Wirtz (Universitätsklinikum Bonn) umfangreiche Informationen, wie aus einem komplexen Beckendefekt eine individuelle, passgenaue Rekonstruktion entwickelt werden kann. Wertvolle Impulse zur präzisen präoperativen Planung und Auswahl von individuellen Implantatkonzepten für alle Teilnehmenden.

Patient-Specific Implants for Complex Acetabular Defects: Midterm Outcomes from a Recent Study

Team PB — Fri, 18 Sep 2026 09:29:04 +0000

A retrospective study conducted by University Hospital Bonn investigates the mid-term clinical and radiological outcomes of patient-specific implants in the treatment of complex Paprosky-type IIIa and IIIb acetabular defects.

Published in Arthroplasty (Springer Nature), the study reports significant funtional impovement in patients with complex acetabular defects and provides clinical and radiological data on patient-specific reconstruction in challenging cases.

With more than 40 years of experience in the development and manufacture of patient-specific implants, PETER BREHM supports surgeons in ímplementing tailored treatment concepts for complex reconstructive challenges.

Limb-salvage in periprosthetic infection: New study on knee arthrodesis

Team PB — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 13:05:07 +0000

New evidence highlights the potential of two-stage modular intramedullary knee arthrodesis as a limb-salvage strategy when revision arthroplasty no longer feasible.

A recently published retrospective study in The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery assessed the outcomes of 30 patients with complex periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after failed total knee arthroplasty. All patients underwent two-stage modular intramedullary knee arthrodesis using KAM-TITAN arthrodesis system by PETER BREHM.

The study reported sustained infection control at follow-up, early mobilisation, improvements in pain and functional outcomes, and stable fixation. No mechanical or implant-related complications were observed during the study period.

Acc. to the authors, two-stage modular intramedullary knee arthroplasty may offer a limb-salvage option for carefully selected patients who are unsuitable for revision arthroplasty, potentially avoiding above-knee amputation.

Key takeaway: The findings support the potential of two-stage modular intramedullary knee arthrodesis in the management of complex PJI and underline its relevance as a limb-salvage strategy in challenging revision cases.

Doors Open at PETER BREHM – Join Us for the “Türöffner-Tag ”!

Team PB — Wed, 16 Sep 2026 09:44:10 +0000

How is an artificial joint made? And what goes on behind the doors at PETER BREHM?

On 3 October, we will be opening our doors to visitors of all ages! As an official participant in the “Türöffner-Tag” (“Open Door Day”) organised by “Die Sendung mit der Maus”, we invite young “Mouse” fans and their families to visit us from 8:30 a.m.

Together, we will take a look behind the scenes and discover what usually remains hidden. There will be plenty to explore:

Experiment and participate: Exciting experiments and hands-on activity stations for curious young explorers (children’s programme)
How, what, where? We demonstrate how an artificial joint is created through numerous individual production steps
Behind the scenes: Company tours for adults
Fun and games: A bouncy castle and mobile play area provide plenty of entertainment

Interest has been tremendous, and our children’s programme is already fully booked.

We are looking forward to a fantastic day, lots of curious questions, and, of course, countless eye-opening moments for visitors young and old.

Doors open – let the adventure begin and get ready to be amazed!

Strengthening partnership. Sharing expertise.

We were delighted to welcome Viet Dung Nguyen, MD, PhD, Head of the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology at Viet Tiep Friendship Hai Phong Hospital; Mr. Anh Dung Nguyen, Managing Director; and Mr. Viet Toi Le, Orthopaedic Technician, from our partner Hanoi IEC in Vietnam.
Their visit offered a valuable opportunity for an interesting exchange of expertise and experience across national borders and cultures. During the hands-on workshop, we explored our solutions for hip and knee revision surgery, with a particular focus on their surgical applications and clinical outcomes.
The visit highlighted the value of sharing knowledge and experience with cooperation partners. Together, we share a common goal: advancing patient care through reliable product solutions, clinical expertise, and strong partnership.
