ACL Tears and Surgery in Adults
Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a common sports-related injury that we often talk about in young, athletic people.
Femoral osteoplasty yielded positive long-term outcomes for femoroacetabular impingement
For patients with femoroacetabular impingement, surgical treatment of labral pathology with femoral osteoplasty yielded better long-term outcomes and survivorship compared with arthroscopy alone.
Females more likely to develop adhesive capsulitis
Data showed that women develop adhesive capsulitis at a faster rate than men and that there are risk factors unique to women. Female athletes are also more likely to experience traumatic shoulder instability than male athletes.
After Revision Hip Arthroscopy, Patients Having Either Circumferential or Segmental Labral Reconstructions for the Management of Irreparable Labra Show Clinical Improvement Based on Proper Indications
To compare a minimum of two-year follow-up patient-reported outcome scores (PROs) in patients who underwent revision hip arthroscopy for acetabular circumferential labral reconstruction (CLR) and segmental labral reconstruction (SLR) using propensity-matched groups, in the setting of irreparable labral tear.
