Background: Arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release is a surgical treatment option for painful snapping hips, although it has been associated with controversy surrounding potential complications including decreased hip flexion strength, iatrogenic hip instability, and iliopsoas atrophy. Purpose: To systematically assess the efficacy and safety of arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy during hip arthroscopic surgery as an intervention for painful snapping hips. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: A total of 3 online databases (Embase, PubMed, and MEDLINE) were searched from database inception until September 2019 for studies investigating iliopsoas tenotomy during hip arthroscopic surgery. Studies were screened by 2 reviewers independently and in duplicate, and studies investigating arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release were included. Demographic data as well as data on treatment success, functional outcome scores, and radiological outcomes were recorded. A risk of bias assessment was performed for all included studies. Results: Overall, 21 studies were identified with a total of 824 patients (875 hips). These patients were 82.5% female (680/824), with a mean age of 28.1 years (range, 12-62 years) and mean follow-up of 32.1 months (range, 3-73 months). Arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy was performed at the level of the labrum in 811 hips (92.7%) or the lesser trochanter in 64 hips (7.3%). The overall reported success rate of the procedure in resolving snapping hips was 93.0% (266/286), and all studies reported an improvement in functional outcome scores. Only 6 studies (93 hips) discussed postoperative hip flexion strength, with complete recovery of strength reported in 4 studies (47 hips) and mild decreases reported in the other 2 studies (46 hips). Iliopsoas atrophy was evaluated radiologically (3 studies; 66 hips) and was found postoperatively in 92.4% (61/66) of hips. No major complications were reported. Conclusion: Arthroscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon was effective in alleviating pain and persistent clicking associated with a snapping hip. Although patients demonstrated some early postoperative weakness and iliopsoas atrophy on radiological imaging, the results from studies to date showed satisfactory clinical function and return to sports/activities. High-quality comparative studies are needed to further assess arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release to determine the optimal technique and location of tendon release.

Background: Little is known about hip-related function, mobility, and performance in patients after hip arthroscopic surgery (HA) during the time that return to sports can be expected. Purpose: To evaluate measures of subjective and objective hip function 6 to 10 months after HA in patients compared with healthy controls and to compare objective function in the HA group between the operated and nonoperated hips. Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A total of 33 patients who had undergone HA (mean, 8.1 ± 2.6 months postoperatively) and 33 healthy participants matched on sex, age, and activity level were compared regarding subjective hip function (Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score [HAGOS]) and objective function including hip range of motion (ROM; flexion, internal rotation, and external rotation), isometric hip muscle strength (adduction, abduction, flexion, internal rotation, and external rotation), and performance-based measures: the Y Balance Test (YBT), medial and lateral triple-hop test, and Illinois agility test. Group differences were analyzed using independent-samples t tests. Paired-samples t tests were used for a comparison of the operated and nonoperated hips. Standard effect sizes (Cohen d) were provided for all outcomes. Results: The HA group reported worse subjective hip function than the control group (HAGOS subscores: d = –0.7 to –2.1; P ≤ .004). Objective measures of hip ROM ( d = –0.5 to –1.1; P ≤ .048), hip flexion strength ( d = –0.5; P = .043), and posteromedial reach of the YBT ( d = –0.5; P = .043) were also reduced in the HA group, although there were no significant differences between groups regarding the remaining objective measures ( d = –0.1 to –0.4; P ≥ .102 to .534). The only significant difference between the operated and nonoperated hips in the HA group was reduced passive hip flexion ( d = –0.4; P = .045). Conclusion: Patients who had undergone HA demonstrated reduced subjective hip function compared with controls 6 to 10 months after surgery, when return to sports can be expected. While most objective strength and performance test results were comparable between the HA and control groups at 6 to 10 months after surgery, the HA group presented with impairments related to hip mobility and hip flexion strength. No consistent pattern of impairments was found in operated hips compared with nonoperated hips.

Anterior Ankle Impingement

Category: Ankle; Arthroscopy Introduction/Purpose: To provide an overview of the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic procedures used as a treatment strategy for anterior ankle impingement and to determine if gender affects outcome. Methods: A systematic literature search of the Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases was performed during June of 2019. The combination of search terms utilized included the following: ankle, impingement, syndrome, talus, compression, osteophyte, arthroscopy, surgery, procedures, and treatment. Two reviewers independently performed data extraction consisting of demographic data, intraoperative arthroscopic data, functional outcome scores, patient satisfaction, complications, return to play, and gender differences. Results: Twenty-eight articles evaluating 1,506 patients were included in this systematic review [Table 1]. Sixty percent and 14% of studies assessed anterolateral and anteromedial impingement, respectively. All studies (16/16, 100%) that evaluated functional outcome reported improvements in AOFAS, VAS, and FFI Scores [Table 2]. The average complication rate was 3.89% [Table 3]. Average return to sport was 8 months. The most common associated pathologies found during arthroscopic evaluation were synovitis, osteophytes, and meniscoid lesions. Four studies (15%) failed to report gender as a demographic variable. Only 5 (17%) studies reported gender analysis, with one demonstrating that male patients had worse outcomes at 6-year follow-up. Conclusion: Our systematic review suggests that arthroscopic treatment for anterior ankle impingement provides good to excellent functional outcomes and low complication rates in the majority of patients. However, current analyses lack outcome evaluations that compare male and female populations. Future studies should perform such assessments to determine whether gender differences play a role in outcomes following arthroscopic intervention.

Reverse Shoulder Replacement

Background Proximal humeral fractures in the elderly population represent a particularly demanding subset of fractures. These have been traditionally treated with Hemi-arthroplasty (HA). Recently there has been a trend towards using a Reverse shoulder replacement (RSR) in some of these patients. The primary aim of the study was to systematically review the literature on the functional outcome scores for RSR in proximal humeral fractures and compare it with the best quality literature available for HA. Secondarily to compare range of movement, complication rates, re-operation rates and x-ray changes. Methods A systematic review of the literature was performed using the keywords: Delta, inverse, shoulder, trauma, and fracture. Only studies with 10 patients or more, presenting new data on the functional outcome scores of RSR for acute trauma were included. Studies reporting the use of RSR for fracture sequalae were excluded. These results were compared to the most comprehensive and up to date literature available for HA for proximal humeral fractures. Results Eight papers met the full inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data was available for 178 patients with a minimum follow-up of only 3 months. The mean absolute constant score for RSR patients was 54% and 57% for HA patients. RSR had an infection rate of 3%, a dislocation rate of 4% and an overall re-operation rate of 5.6%. Conclusion Functional outcomes and range of movements achieved by RSR seem to be similar to those achieved by HA and may eventually be proven to have better outcomes in a certain sub-group of patients. However, there is currently less than 200 patients reported in the literature with a very short term follow-up. RSR is more expensive than HA, and there is a definite learning curve associated with this prosthesis. Although RSR may be valuable in patients where a traditional HA is deemed not suitable, caution must be used until better quality research is available.

Introduction. The purpose of this study was to analyze the functional outcome in competitive level athletes at 5 years after ACL reconstruction with regard to return to sports and the factors or reasons in those who either stopped sports or showed a fall in their sporting levels. Methods. 48 competitive athletes who had undergone arthroscopic assisted ACL reconstruction with a minimum follow up of at least 5 years were successfully recalled and were analyzed. Results. 22 patients had returned to the preinjury levels of sports and 18 showed a decrease in their sporting levels. Of the 18 patients, 12 referred to fear of reinjuring the same or contra-lateral knee as the prime reason for the same while 6 patients reported persisting knee pain and instability as reasons for a fall in their sporting abilities. The difference in the scores of these groups was statistically significant. 8 patients out of the 48 had left sports completely due to reasons other than sports, even though they had good knee outcome scores. Conclusion. Fear of reinjury and psychosocial issues that are relevant to the social milieu of the athlete are very important and affect the overall results of the surgery with respect to return to sports.

Objective.The objective of this study was to identify the patient-level predictors (age, sex, body mass index, mental health, and comorbidity) for a sustained functional outcome at a minimum 1 year of followup after total hip replacement (THR).Methods.We reviewed data from our registry on 636 consecutive patients from 1998 to 2005. Demographic data and the outcome scores of the Western Ontario McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Medical Outcomes Study Short-form 36 (SF-36) scores were extracted from the database. Longitudinal regression modeling was performed to identify the predictive factors of interest. Fourteen percent of patients were missing outcomes data at 1 year of followup.Results.The mean followup in our cohort was 3.3 years (range 1–6 yrs) and there were no revisions for aseptic loosening performed during this time. Mean clinical outcome scores were found to be relatively constant for the 6 years after surgery. Older age, year of followup, and greater comorbidity were identified as negative prognostic factors for a sustained functional outcome following THR (p < 0.05).Conclusion.Understanding of longterm surgical outcomes should be appropriately used to set realistic patient expectations of surgery.

Context: There is currently no evidence-based consensus on how to treat a full-thickness, symptomatic articular cartilage injury of the patella, although numerous treatment options are available. Objective: To systematically evaluate the functional outcomes after operative treatment of patellar cartilage lesions. Our secondary purpose was to evaluate radiographic outcomes after treatment. Data Sources: PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase Study Selection: Studies published between January 1, 1990 and December 31, 2018 that included patient-reported functional outcomes for patients after operative treatment of patellar chondral defects at a minimum 2-year follow-up were included. Study Design: Systematic review. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Data Extraction: MINORS (Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies) score, level of evidence, sample size, demographic data, follow-up data, intervention, functional outcome scores, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were collected. Results: The review identified 10 studies and 293 patients receiving cartilage restoration procedures for patellar chondral defects with extractable clinical and radiographic results and data on complications and reoperations. All treatments (autologous chondrocyte implantation [ACI], matrix-induced ACI [MACI], autologous osteochondral transplantation [AOT]) utilized in the management of patellar chondral lesions, with the exception of isolated particulated juvenile articular cartilage, demonstrated statistically significant improvements in functional outcome scores compared with preoperative measurements at a minimum of 2-year follow-up. Postoperative MRIs were obtained in 6 studies and found that regardless of treatment, moderate-to-complete infill of patellar cartilage lesions was seen in the majority of patients. While failure rates were low for the various treatment modalities, rates of reoperation were substantial, with up to 40% to 60% reoperation rate seen after ACI. Conclusion: Patients treated with ACI, MACI, and AOT all demonstrated statistically significant improvements in functional outcome scores with radiographic evidence of healing at minimum of 2-year follow-up. Evidence is insufficient to recommend one particular treatment over another.

ABSTRACT This study aims to present a systematic review and synthesized evidence on the epidemiological factors, diagnostic methods and treatment options available for this phenomenon. A multi-database search (OVID Medline, EMBASE and PubMed) was performed according to PRISMA guidelines on 18 June 2019. All studies of any study design discussing on the epidemiological factors, diagnostic methods, classification systems and treatment options of the wave sign were included. The Newcastle–Ottawa quality assessment tool was used to appraise articles. No quantitative analysis could be performed due to heterogeneous data reported; 11 studies with a total of 501 patients with the wave sign were included. Three studies examined risk factors for wave sign and concluded that cam lesions were most common. Other risk factors include alpha angle &gt;65° (OR=4.00, 95% CI: 1.26–12.71, P=0.02), male gender (OR 2.24, 95% CI: 1.09–4.62, P=0.03) and older age (OR=1.04, 95% CI: 1.01–1.07, P=0.03). Increased acetabular coverage in setting of concurrent cam lesions may be a protective factor. Wave signs most commonly occur at the anterior, superior and anterosuperior acetabulum. In terms of staging accuracy, the Haddad classification had the highest coefficients in intraclass correlation (k=0.81, 95% CI: 0.23–0.95, P=0.011), inter-observer reliability (k=0.88, 95% CI: 0.72–0.97, P&lt;0.001) and internal validity (k=0.89). One study investigated the utility of quantitative magnetic imaging for wave sign, concluding that significant heterogeneity in T1ρ and T2 values (P&lt;0.05) of acetabular cartilage is indicative of acetabular debonding. Four studies reported treatment techniques, including bridging suture repair, reverse microfracture with bubble decompression and microfracture with fibrin adhesive glue, with the latter reporting statistically significant improvements in modified Harris hip scores at 6-months (MD=19.2, P&lt;0.05), 12-months (MD=22.0, P&lt;0.05) and 28-months (MD=17.5, P&lt;0.001). No clinical studies were available for other treatment options. There is a scarcity of literature on the wave sign. Identifying at risk symptomatic patients is important to provide prompt diagnosis and treatment. Diagnostic techniques and operative options are still in early developmental stages. More research is needed to understand the natural history of wave sign lesions after arthroscopic surgery and whether intervention can improve long-term outcomes. Level IV, Systematic review of non-homogeneous studies.

Background: It remains controversial whether abnormal femoral version (FV) affects the outcomes of hip arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) or labral tears. Purpose: To review the outcomes of hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI or labral tears in patients with normal versus abnormal FV. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library were searched in July 2020 for studies reporting the outcomes after primary hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI or labral tears in patients with femoral retroversion (<5°), femoral anteversion (>20°), or normal FV (5°-20°). The primary outcome was the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and secondary outcomes were the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, Hip Outcome Score–Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), failure rate, and patient satisfaction. The difference in preoperative and postoperative scores (Δ) was also calculated when applicable. Results: Included in this review were 5 studies with 822 patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI or labral tears; there were 166 patients with retroversion, 512 patients with normal version, and 144 patients with anteversion. Patients with retroversion and normal version had similar postoperative mHHS scores (mean difference [MD], 2.42 [95% confidence interval (CI), –3.42 to 8.26]; P = .42) and ΔmHHS scores (MD, –0.70 [96% CI, –8.56 to 7.15]; P = .86). Likewise, the patients with anteversion and normal version had similar postoperative mHHS scores (MD, –3.09 [95% CI, –7.66 to 1.48]; P = .18) and ΔmHHS scores (MD, –1.92 [95% CI, –6.18 to 2.34]; P = .38). Regarding secondary outcomes, patients with retroversion and anteversion had similar ΔNAHS scores, ΔHOS-SSS scores, ΔVAS scores, patient satisfaction, and failure rates to those with normal version, although a significant difference was found between the patients with retroversion and normal version regarding postoperative NAHS scores (MD, 5.96 [95% CI, 1.66-10.26]; P = .007) and postoperative HOS-SSS scores (MD, 7.32 [95% CI, 0.19-14.44]; P = .04). Conclusion: The results of this review indicated that abnormal FV did not significantly influence outcomes after hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI or labral tears.
