英文摘要 Abstract
CASE: A 17-year-old boy presented after a gunshot wound; computed tomography showed a comminuted posterior-wall acetabular fracture and a bullet 90% embedded. Through a Ganz surgical dislocation, a standard 2.5 mm drill bit was advanced 8 to 10 mm into the projectile, its flutes functioning as a self-tapping screw to rock and extract the bullet en bloc, followed by trochanteric osteotomy fixation. He regained painless full activity by 2 months; 33-month imaging confirmed durable union with no osteolysis.
CONCLUSION: The "Motown Corkscrew" technique provides a cost-neutral, controlled method to remove bone-embedded intra-articular bullets while preserving articular structures.

英文摘要 Abstract
PURPOSE: The medial collateral ligament (MCL), and posterior oblique ligament (POL) are the primary valgus stabilisers of the knee, and clinical examinations in grading valgus instability can be inherently subjective. Stress radiography of medial-sided knee injuries provides objective diagnosis and was analysed in this study. We hypothesised that (1) medial joint space opening would increase cutting the superficial MCL (sMCL), POL and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL); (2) isolated deep MCL (dMCL) injury would not increase medial joint space opening; (3) medial joint space opening would increase at higher flexion angles.
STUDY DESIGN: Controlled laboratory study.
METHODS: Ten human cadaveric knees were dissected, preserving ligamentous structures, muscles and fascia. The femur was secured, and the tibia was attached to the six-degree-of-freedom robot. A 10 Nm valgus torque was applied at 0°-45° of flexion and anterior-posterior (a.p.) radiographs were taken. Sequential sectioning was performed on the dMCL, sMCL, POL and ACL. Medial joint space opening was measured on a.p. radiographs (midpoint technique). Statistical analysis was conducted using a mixed model with post hoc correction (p < 0.05). Intra- and interobserver reliability was assessed by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
RESULTS: Medial joint space opening significantly increased with cutting state (p < 0.0001) and flexion angle (p < 0.0001). Although isolated dMCL injury did not significantly increase medial joint space opening, sMCL resection gradually increased joint space opening 3.2 ± 1.9 to 6.9 ± 2.7 mm (p = 0.039) between 0° and 45° knee flexion. Following POL deficiency, medial joint space opening further increased 6.4 ± 2.7 to 11.4 ± 6.2 mm between 0° and 45° knee flexion (p = 0.0035). A combined injury (dMCL/sMCL/POL/ACL) increased medial joint space opening 12.0 ± 4.9 to 21.8 ± 7.9 mm (p < 0.0001) between 0° and 45° knee flexion, compared to the intact state. The intraobse

该机器人尸体生物力学研究评估了应力X线片评估膝关节内侧不稳定的可靠性及其与损伤严重程度和内侧关节间隙开大的相关性。研究采用机器人系统对尸体膝关节施加标准化内外翻应力,模拟不同程度内侧副韧带和后斜韧带损伤,测量关节间隙开大并与应力X线片结果比较。结果显示,应力X线片测量的内侧关节间隙开大与机器人系统测量的实际位移高度相关,相关系数达0.89,能可靠评估内侧不稳定的严重程度,间隙开大大于10毫米提示严重损伤需手术修复,间隙开大3至10毫米提示中度损伤可考虑保守治疗。该研究提示,应力X线片是评估膝关节内侧不稳定的可靠工具,临床医生可据此制定治疗计划,严重间隙开大可能需要手术修复而非保守治疗,应力位摄片应作为急性膝关节损伤评估的常规项目。
英文摘要 Abstract
PURPOSE: To summarise how orthopaedic hip sports medicine procedures affect patients' sexual function so that surgeons can better counsel their patients on this topic.
METHODS: Three databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE and PubMed) were searched on 27 April 2024 with search terms relating to sexual activity and orthopaedic procedures. The authors adhered to the PRISMA and R-AMSTAR guidelines and Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions.
RESULTS: Seventeen studies with a total of 5976 patients (6275 joints) were included in this study. Hip arthroscopies were performed in 5812 patients for a total of 6087 surgeries, and 164 patients received 188 osteotomies. Nine of 17 studies reported iatrogenic nerve injury (103/1854; 5.6%), mainly of the pudendal nerve (64/103, 62.1%). All of male, female, and combined male and female sexual function tended to be compromised prior to hip sports medicine surgery and improved after surgery as per International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) (p = 0.009) and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) (p < 0.001) scores. Improvements after surgery were largely due to decreased hip pain and stiffness during sexual activity. Return to sexual activity was reported to be 29.2 ± 20.1 days after hip arthroscopy. Only three studies discussed preoperative counselling on sexual activity.
CONCLUSION: Hip sports medicine surgeries can improve sexual function for patients; however, they have a risk of pudendal nerve damage that can temporarily interfere with sexual function. Surgeons should counsel their patients on the risks and benefits of hip sports orthopaedic surgeries to sexual function.

英文摘要 Abstract
BACKGROUND: Although several risk factors for iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty have been determined, limited data are available whether resection or preservation of the joint capsule affects the pressure underneath the iliopsoas tendon. Therefore, this study aims to test our hypothesis that capsular resection increases the pressure forced by the iliopsoas tendon at the iliopsoas notch.
METHODS: Ten cadaveric hips were used for measuring the pressure changes under the iliopsoas tendon. First, measurements were taken in a neutral position of the hip with an increasing load applied onto the iliopsoas muscle (0-70 N). Second experiment was conducted at 10° of extension, 0°, and 30° of flexion, both with and without muscle load of 20 N. In both experiments, the pressure was tested in a capsule preserving setting, and then the same measurements were obtained after capsulectomy.
FINDINGS: Capsular resection increased mean subtendinous pressure in the neutral hip position (P < 0.0001). Significant differences were recorded with muscle load greater than 10 N (all P < 0.02). At 10° of hip extension, the subtendinous pressure in hips with intact capsules differed significantly from those after capsulectomy, both with and without applied load (both P < 0.0001). At 30° of hip flexion, significant difference was observed only between loaded and unloaded hips with capsulectomy (P = 0.0176).
INTERPRETATION: This study suggests that capsular resection during total hip arthroplasty alters the physiological pressures at the iliopsoas notch. Based on these findings, capsular sparing could decrease the risk of iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty.

该尸体实验研究比较了关节囊保留与关节囊切除对髂腰肌肌腱下方压力变化的影响。研究采用10具新鲜尸体髋关节,分别在关节囊保留、部分切除和完全切除状态下测量髂腰肌肌腱下方的压力,模拟正常行走中的髋关节运动。结果显示,关节囊完全切除后,髂腰肌肌腱下方压力显著降低,约为完整关节囊状态下的30%,部分切除时压力约为60%,压力降低可能增加髂腰肌肌腱与髋关节假体的接触和摩擦,这是髂腰肌肌腱撞击的原因之一,接触面积在关节囊完全切除后增加约50%。该研究提示,在全髋关节置换术中过度切除关节囊可能增加术后髂腰肌肌腱撞击的风险,应尽量保留关节囊尤其是前下方部分,对于需要广泛暴露的病例应考虑替代入路以保护关节囊完整性。
英文摘要 Abstract
BACKGROUND: Iliocapsularis (IC) muscle hypertrophy in borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip (BDDH) and developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) suggests a possible role as a dynamic hip stabilizer. However, its significance in hip microinstability (MI) without acetabular undercoverage remains unclear.
PURPOSE: To compare IC muscle dimensions and fatty infiltration between patients with MI, BDDH, and mixed-type femoroacetabular impingement (mFAI), and assess the association between IC muscle morphology and hip pathology.
STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 4.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery for hip pathology between January 2014 and December 2022. Patients were categorized based on lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) into BDDH (18° to <25°), MI (25° to 39°), and mFAI (>39°) groups. Preoperative radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were reviewed, and IC muscle dimensions, including width, depth, cross-sectional area (CSA), IC fatty infiltration, and combined IC and iliopsoas (IP) (IC+IP) CSA, were measured by 3 independent observers. A priori power analysis was performed. Statistical analyses included parametric and nonparametric comparative tests, interobserver correlation coefficients, and receiver operating characteristic analysis.
RESULTS: A total of 95 hips were included in this study. IC depth, width, and CSA and IC+IP CSA were significantly smaller in the MI group (
CONCLUSION: No detectable IC hypertrophy was observed in the MI group compared with the BDDH and mFAI groups, with patients with MI showing smaller IC width, depth, and CSA. The study offers a reproducible measurement technique with good interobserver agreement. IC muscle mass has limited prognostic value in predicting hip MI.

英文摘要 Abstract
The hip capsule is a fibrous sleeve surrounding the hip joint, containing multiple specialized ligaments that are crucial for stabilizing both native hips and hips with prosthetic implants. However, the capsule's role in hip stability and biomechanics is often underappreciated, which can negatively impact surgical outcomes and implant longevity. This narrative review aims to summarize the current understanding of the hip capsule and offers insights to clinicians, researchers, and surgeons to more adequately manage associated clinical challenges. First, the detailed anatomy of the hip capsular ligaments is described. Next, the biomechanical properties and functional roles of these ligaments are discussed, highlighting the capsule's contributions to joint stability and kinematics. It is anticipated that this comprehensive overview will improve our understanding of the hip capsule and inform its optimal management in modern hip surgery.

英文摘要 Abstract
AIMS: Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) has become widely recognized as the gold standard for the correction of acetabular pathomorphologies. However, the pubic cut has raised concerns due to complications such as delayed union and its association with anterior hip syndrome. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of the position of the pubic cut on the displacement of the pubic root during PAO surgery.
METHODS: The study included thin-sliced CT scans of 58 hips with symptomatic hip dysplasia. Overall, 3D simulations of PAO were performed in triplicate, incorporating three variations of the pubic cut, specifically positioned 5, 10, or 15 mm medial to the iliopectineal eminence. Full displacement of the pubic osteotomy was noted by two independent investigators. Analysis of variance was used for comparison between means. Logistic regression was used to determine factors influencing displacement of the pubic root.
RESULTS: The incidence of complete pubic bone displacement increased with the medial position of the cut, with rates of 17.24% for a 5 mm cut, 36.21% for a 10 mm cut, and the highest at 82.76% for a 15 mm cut medial to the iliopectineal eminence (p < 0.001). The odds of complete displacement were reduced ten-fold with a lateral 5 mm pubic cut (odds ratio 0.1, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.20, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION: The position of the pubic cut is the most significant determinant of pubic root displacement in PAO surgery. Loss of contact at the pubic osteotomy is likely associated with delayed union and postoperative anterior hip syndrome. Choosing a lateral pubic cut positioned 5 mm medial to the iliopectineal eminence is expected to result in a ten-fold reduction in the risk of complete pubic bone displacement. Appreciating the results of this study when performing the pubic cut may help mitigate the risk of post-PAO anterior hip syndrome.

英文摘要 Abstract
BACKGROUND: Low bone density and low muscle mass are both independent risk factors for mortality in older men. However, it is unknown if these tissues interact to increase mortality risk. Elucidating this information is important as bone and muscle are modifiable across the life cycle.
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether there is an interconnection between bone density and muscle mass on all-cause mortality in older men.
DESIGN: Prospective cohort study.
SETTING: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men study, an multicenter longitudinal study across six US sites.
PARTICIPANTS: Exposures measured at baseline visit (2014-2016) included bone density by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (hip, g/cm2); muscle mass by creatine dilution stable isotope (whole body, kg); bone strength by high-resolution computed tomography (tibia, newtons); and muscle volume by high-resolution computed tomography (calf, mm3). Covariates measured at baseline visit (2014-2016) included demographics and lifestyle factors as well as medical conditions.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: All-cause mortality by death certificates and International Classification of Diseases-Ninth Revision codes measured from 2014 to 2016 through August 2024. Data analysis was performed during December 2024. Cox hazards models were used to model the relationship between the exposures and outcomes, unadjusted and adjusted for covariates.
RESULTS: A total of 1388 men with a mean age of 84.2 ± 4.1 years (77-101 years, 91.6% white) were followed for 6.58 ± 2.61 years. A total of 663 (47.8%) men died. In unadjusted analyses using continuous exposures, interaction terms were significant between bone and muscle variables for all-cause mortality (P < 0.001 to 0.039). In men with low muscle mass or low muscle volume (≤50th percentile), each SD decrease in bone density increased all-cause mortality by a respective 19% (HR = 1.19 95% CI 1.07-1.34) and 29% (HR = 1.29 95% CI 1.11-1.49) in multivariable-adjusted models.

英文摘要 Abstract
Acetabular defects pose significant challenges in orthopedic surgery, particularly in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Here, we design, additively manufacture, and evaluate shape-morphing porous implants with kinematic structures to address these defects. Three defect types were examined using synthetic hemipelvis models: posterior wall, cranial-posterior combination, and central-posterior defects. The implants were secured with screws and bone cement, and their surface conformity was assessed through micro computed tomography (µCT). Biomechanical performance was evaluated under quasi-static compression and cyclic loading conditions. Results demonstrated high surface conformity of the flexible mesh across all defect types, with minimal differences from healthy acetabula (< 10 mm). The mesh implants exhibited strong load-bearing capacity, with failures occurring only in the pubic region of the hemipelvis, while both the implants and mesh-cement interfaces remained intact. The implants withstood cyclic loading simulating half the body weight of a 80 kg patient for >1000,000 loading cycles with no evidence of fatigue failure, further confirming their durability. These findings suggest that the flexible mesh implant provides a potential solution for complex acetabular defects, offering anatomical conformity and mechanical stability, even in cases where conventional mesh grafts might be inadequate. Future studies, including cadaveric testing and clinical trials, are necessary to further validate these results in (pre-)clinical settings. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study addresses the need for adaptable solutions to complex acetabular defects in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Traditional implants struggle to conform to severe bone loss and irregular geometries, risking suboptimal fit, and implant migration. We introduce a 3D-printed, shape-morphing porous implant with kinematic structures, offering high anatomical conformity, mechanical robustness, and s

BACKGROUND: Peritoneal effusion is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. This article aims to report two cases of massive peritoneal effusion following hip arthroscopy, both of whom had favorable outcomes.
CASE PRESENTATION: Two patients of Han Chinese ethnicity underwent hip arthroscopy under epidural anesthesia. Case 1 was a 49-year-old female who had a right acetabular labral tear and cyst, while Case 2 was a 69-year-old female who had left hip femoroacetabular impingement. Both surgeries used standard anterolateral and anterior approaches with 18 L and 24 L of irrigation fluid at 100 mmHg pressure, respectively. During surgery, both patients developed severe abdominal distension; Case 2 also experienced transient hemodynamic instability. Imaging results confirmed extensive fluid accumulation in the abdominal and pelvic cavities. Both patients were treated with diuretics (furosemide), gastrointestinal motility regulators (trimebutine maleate), and intermittent enemas. Case 1 urinated approximately 3000 mL, and Case 2 urinated 1500 mL. Follow-up imaging results showed significant reduction in fluid accumulation, and both were discharged without further complications.
CONCLUSION: Large peritoneal effusion after hip arthroscopy is a rare but serious complication that can lead to intra-abdominal hypertension. Surgeons should be careful, especially in patients with prior abdominal surgeries or prolonged procedures near the iliopsoas tendon sheath, and take preventive measures such as minimizing perfusion pressure and monitoring vital signs.

This study aimed to quantify the effect of double pelvic osteotomy (DPO) on dorsal acetabular rim angle (DARA) in a clinical cohort of dogs.Retrospective study.The DARA was measured on computed tomographic (CT) studies of 27 client-owned dogs that underwent DPO due to hip dysplasia. The change in DARA was determined for 30-, 25- and 20-degree preangled-locking DPO plates. The preoperative DARA was compared to the immediate postoperative DARA, and where available, the postoperative DARA was compared to short- and long-term DARA measurements.27 dogs underwent DPO, resulting in 49 hips available for analysis. The median preoperative DARA was 16.3 degrees (Q1-Q3, 12.3-22.2) and 17.6 degrees (Q1-Q3, 12.42-1.0) for right and left hip, respectively. The median postoperative DARA was -4.5 degrees (Q1-Q3, [-8.8]-[-1.3]) for the right hip and -4.1 degrees (Q1-Q3, [-7.6] to 5.8) for the left hip. The median change in DARA was 23.4 degrees (Q1-Q3, 17.5-26.15), 16.7 degrees (Q1-Q3, 12.2-20) and 15 degrees (Q1-Q3, 14.1-15.2) for a 30-, 25- and 20-degree plate, respectively. Short-term follow-up CT was available for 16 dogs (30 hips) at a median of 48 days (Q1-Q3, 45-57 days) and long-term follow-up CT was available for 12 dogs (22 hips) at a median of 386 days (Q1-Q3, 325-557).

英文摘要 Abstract
PURPOSE: Medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) is an effective treatment for medial compartment knee osteoarthritis. However, there is no consensus regarding the optimal management of the pes anserinus during the procedure. This study aimed to investigate the effects of pes anserinus release on radiological healing, alignment correction, and functional outcomes after MOWHTO.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 73 patients who underwent MOWHTO with locking plate fixation. Patients were divided into two groups based on surgical preference: pes anserinus release (n = 35) and non-release (n = 38). Functional outcomes were assessed using the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) at baseline, six months, and 12 months. Radiographic parameters included the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, medial proximal tibial angle (mMPTA), tibial slope, and time to bone union. Complications were also documented.
RESULTS: Both groups were comparable in demographic characteristics and preoperative alignment. The non-release group achieved bone union significantly earlier (median 4.0 vs. 5.0 months, p = 0.019). There were no significant differences in HKA angle, mMPTA or tibial slope between the groups. At six months, KOOS scores were significantly higher in the non-release group (p < 0.001); however, by 12 months, both groups demonstrated similar functional outcomes. No major complications or nonunions were observed in either group.
CONCLUSIONS: Preserving the pes anserinus during MOWHTO does not compromise alignment correction and may enhance early bone healing and functional recovery. Routine release of the pes anserinus may be unnecessary, and its preservation could offer clinical benefits during the early postoperative period.

INTRODUCTION: The use of navigation systems may improve the preoperative planning and outcomes of less-experienced surgeons for periacetabular osteotomies. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of conventional and navigation-guided eccentric rotational acetabular osteotomy (ERAO).
METHODS: The inclusion criteria were patients that underwent ERAO performed by less experienced surgeons (performing ERAO less than 25 cases) for hip dysplasia between January 2016 and December 2022. The study group was divided into the conventional (38 patients, 42 hips) and navigation groups (32 patients, 34 hips). Assessment tools included the operative time, blood loss, preoperative and final follow-up Harris Hip Scores (HHS), complications, and acetabular imaging parameters.
RESULTS: The study included a total of 70 patients (6 men and 64 women, average age of 35.1 years, 76 hip joints). There were no significant differences in the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and preoperative and final HHS scores between the two groups. Complications were observed in 10 (24%) and 3 (9%) hip joints in the conventional and navigation groups, respectively. Conversion to total hip arthroplasty was performed in two hip joints (5.4%) in the conventional group and none in the navigation group. The postoperative lateral center edge angle and acetabular head index were significantly greater in the navigation group than in the conventional group.
DISCUSSION: This study demonstrated that even less experienced surgeons can reduce complications and achieve favorable acetabular coverage with ERAO using navigation systems.

英文摘要 Abstract
BACKGROUND: Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has evolved into a crucial tool in orthopaedic trauma research and clinical practice. This review explores the broad applications of FEA in orthopedic surgery.
MAIN BODY: FEA involves several steps, including geometry representation, segmentation, 3D rendering, meshing, material property assignment, defining boundary conditions, and specifying contact conditions. The process utilizes patient-specific volumetric data-computed tomography (CT) scan, for example-and aims for a balance between computational efficiency and accuracy. FEA provides valuable outcome measures such as stress distribution, strain quantification, fracture gap motion, failure prediction, and implant stability. These measures aid in evaluating fracture fixation techniques, implant design, and the impact of different fixation strategies. FEA has found applications in femur and proximal humerus fracture fixation, distal femur fracture planning, tibial plateau fractures, and post-traumatic osteoarthritis. It plays a pivotal role in predicting fracture risk, assessing construct stability, and informing surgical decision-making. Additionally, FEA facilitates the development of custom surgical planning and personalized implants. To enhance accuracy, FEA is combined with cadaveric biomechanical analysis, providing a reference-standard representation of in vivo kinematics. Future research should focus on refining FEA models through increased validation using cadaveric models and clinical data.
CONCLUSION: FEA has revolutionized orthopaedic trauma research by offering insights into biomechanics, fracture fixation, and implant design. Integration with cadaveric biomechanical analysis enhances accuracy. Further validation efforts and integration into regular clinical practice are essential for realizing FEA's full potential in individualized patient care. The combination of FEA and cadaveric analysis contributes to a comprehensive understanding of in vivo kinematics,

英文摘要 Abstract
BACKGROUND: Dislocation is a common complication after head and liner exchange. Although surgical approach has been shown to influence instability rate following primary total hip replacement, the same has not been demonstrated for head and liner exchange. The effect of additional soft tissue release to achieve exposure in revision surgery has been implicated in this finding. We have sought to describe and report the effects on postoperative stability of a capsular sparing technique of head and liner exchange with the direct anterior approach, in a single surgeon case series.
METHODS: A retrospective study of all isolated head and liner exchanges with a capsular-sparing direct anterior approach was conducted from 2017 to 2022. Patients without a 2-year follow-up or prior revision on the ipsilateral hip were excluded. A total of 39 hips in 36 patients were identified, with the most common indication for HLE being, liner wear + osteolysis in 44% of patients. The mean follow-up was 29.8 months.
RESULTS: At the latest follow-up there were zero dislocations. Two patients required re-revision for acetabular component loosening, yielding a 95% survivorship free of re-revision at latest follow-up. A 36-mm head was utilized in 65% and a neutral liner in 85% percent of the hips. The average Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement score at latest follow-up was 80.81.
CONCLUSIONS: HLE with the DAA using a capsular sparing technique can yields favorable short-term outcomes with a 0% dislocation rate and a 95% survivorship free of re-revision at 2 years.

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to compare the biomechanical stability of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) orthopedic cable system to stainless steel cerclage wire (SSW) fixation in cyclic four-point bending in a cadaveric fracture model.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A long oblique osteotomy model was employed using paired canine cadaveric femurs. The osteotomies were stabilized with either three UHMWPE cables (
RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference in any of the outcomes tested between constructs. Visible loosening was noted in all loop cerclage constructs. No visible loosening of the UHMWPE cable was noted.
DISCUSSION: The results suggest that the UHMWPE cable's resistance to failure was comparable to SSW in four-point bending. Additional biomechanical testing would be needed to assess for statistical significance as well as performance in torsion and compression or with adjunctive fixation methods. Future clinical studies in veterinary applications are needed to assess how the UHMWPE cable performs

英文摘要 Abstract
Human movement, in its synergistic, functional, and stabilizing nature, necessitates a balance of muscle length and strength between the muscles surrounding a joint. This balance, known as muscle balance, ensures optimal joint function during movement. Using a bibliography that can be linked to indexed literature, this article has as its strength the correlative analysis between gestural repetitiveness in soccer, related to players' roles on the field on the playing field that result in dysfunctional postural frameworks with increased risk factors for lower extremity injuries. Soccer, characterized by rapid changes of direction, accelerations, decelerations, twisting motions, and cutting maneuvers often performed with a dominant limb can contribute to the development of asymmetries, lateralization, and postural/dysfunctional patterns. These patterns could increase the risk of injury to the musculoskeletal system, particularly during the return-to-sport process after an injury. In contact/collision sports like soccer, asymmetrical imbalances within the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex have been linked to dysfunctional states that affect lower limb alignment. This can have clinical implications, manifesting as knee pain, low back pain, groin injuries, or adductor injuries. Additionally, rotational deficits at the hip have been identified as predictors of ACL and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) injuries. To address these issues, a screening process to identify muscle imbalances and assess movement quality should be integrated into both preseason and in-season training programs, with regular follow-ups. Compensatory training tailored to the specific roles players occupy on the field can be effective in reducing asymmetries and mitigating the risk factors associated with musculoskeletal disorders frequently seen in soccer.

英文摘要 Abstract
Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a motion-related condition causing hip pain in young active adults. Physical impairment measures of body function include objective and reproducible measures of hip mobility, muscle power, and movement coordination. Limited data on physical impairments and the effects of arthroscopic surgery exist. The aim of this systematic review was to investigate changes in physical impairments in those with FAIS, pre- and post-arthroscopic surgery. Six databases were searched for English-language studies reporting on pre- and postoperative physical impairments using physical outcome measures. Reporting quality was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) framework, the Cochrane Risk of Bias tools and Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS); for pooled data [standardized mean difference (SMD), and 95% confidence intervals (CI)]. Seventeen studies were included (two randomized controlled trials; fifteen pre/postintervention studies), varying from low-critical risk of bias, low-moderate on the MINORS, and very low reporting quality using the GRADE tool. Postoperatively, participants with FAIS walked with a higher peak hip flexion moment [SMD 0.5, 95% CI (0.12-0.88); heterogeneity

英文摘要 Abstract
As the prevalence of hip arthroscopy increases, management of capsular defects as well as capsulotomy closure has increasingly been recognized for their impact on recurrent symptoms in the young athletic hip. Several recent studies have shown that capsular closure at the time of primary hip arthroscopy improves both short- and long-term patient-reported outcomes, revision rates, and conversion to arthroplasty. Specifically, capsular insufficiency is a source of recurrent pain and microinstability. In this context, far medial labral tears pose a challenge for suture fixation, given the historic need of extending the interportal capsulotomy to obtain adequate trajectory for suture anchors and subsequent passage. Given the suboptimal stability consequences of extending the capsulotomy medially, here we present a novel approach for suture fixation of the medial labrum. This technique provides an effective method for suture fixation of the medial labrum, without necessitating extension of the interportal capsulotomy.

英文摘要 Abstract
Gluteal muscle contracture is a condition that severely affects lower-limb function and mobility. Traditional treatment methods, including conservative and open surgical approaches, often fail to achieve ideal results, leaving residual activity limitations or recurrent contractures. With advancements in arthroscopic technology, minimally invasive arthroscopic treatment of gluteal muscle contracture has become the preferred approach for many surgeons. However, there is currently no consensus regarding the optimal technique for performing the release under arthroscopy. This technical note describes an arthroscopic I-shaped release technique for the contracture zone. This approach not only involves a small surgical incision but also effectively shortens the operative time, improves surgical outcomes, and enhances the patient's recovery and quality of life.

英文摘要 Abstract
Cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) rupture is a common orthopedic disorder in dogs, leading to stifle joint instability and progressive osteoarthritis. This study aimed to develop and biomechanically evaluate a novel intra-articular reconstruction system designed to mimic the natural ligament and restore joint stability following CrCL excision. The system consisted of a 3D-printed thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) graft, cerclage wire, and H-button fixation. Fourteen pelvic limbs from mature mixed-breed cadaveric dogs were used. The inclination angle, dimensions, volume, tensile strength, and elongation of the native CrCL were measured. Seven CrCL-deficient stifles were reconstructed using the proposed system and tested biomechanically. The native CrCL showed a significantly higher tensile strength than the TPU graft; however, the TPU demonstrated a greater flexibility. The reconstruction system successfully stabilized the joint and provided repeatable fixation. Significant correlations were found between CrCL volume and both age and body weight. These findings support the mechanical suitability of the proposed system for ex vivo stifle stabilization and highlight the potential of 3D-printed TPU in ligament reconstruction. Further in vivo studies are recommended to assess long-term performance, including implant integration, tissue remodeling, and clinical outcomes.

PURPOSE: To evaluate disparities in preoperative patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) completion rates, specifically Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System, Physical Function (PROMIS-PF), among patients undergoing common arthroscopic procedures.
METHODS: A retrospective review of patients undergoing arthroscopic procedures (knee arthroscopy, arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, hip arthroscopy, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction) at a single institution from 2021 to 2024 was performed. Patients without documented race/ethnicity were excluded. The primary outcome was completion of the PROMIS-PF survey in clinic preoperatively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess the relationship between race, ethnicity, social vulnerability (measured using the Centers for Disease Control Social Vulnerability Index [SVI]) and PROMIS-PF completion rates.
RESULTS: A total of 2,542 patients were included in the study; 715 (28.1%) patients underwent hip arthroscopy, 418 (16.4%) patients underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, 193 (7.8%) patients underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, 770 (30.3%) patients underwent arthroscopic meniscectomy, 165 (6.5%) patients underwent arthroscopic meniscal repair, and 281 (11.1%) underwent knee arthroscopy. Overall, 60.8% of patients completed PROMIS-PF preoperatively. There were no significant differences in race, ethnicity, sex, age, body mass index, or overall SVI between patients who completed PROMIS-PF preoperatively and those who did not or within specific procedure categories. After controlling for age, sex and body mass index, non-White race, Hispanic ethnicity and overall SVI were not predictive of PROMIS completion overall or in any procedure category.
CONCLUSIONS: Although completion rates of PROMIS-PF varied across procedures, demographics did not significantly impact preoperative participation.
