Progress in diagnosis and hip arthroscopic treatment of borderline developmental dysplasia of hip with Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement / 中国修复重建外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the biomechanical characteristics, diagnosis, and hip arthroscopic treatment of borderline developmental dysplasia of hip (BDDH) with Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (Cam FAI).@*METHODS@#The literature on BDDH with Cam FAI at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed and analyzed.@*RESULTS@#In patients with BDDH and Cam FAI, the femoral neck anteversion angle and femoral neck shaft angle increase, the pelvis tilts, and the acetabulum rotates, resulting in instability of the hip joint. In order to maintain the stability of the hip joint, the direction of biomechanical action of the hip joint has changed, which further affects the anatomical structures such as the proximal femur and acetabular morphology. BDDH with Cam FAI can be diagnosed clinically by combining lateral center edge angle, anterior center edge angle, and acetabular index. BDDH with Cam FAI can be effectively treated through arthroscopic polishing of the edges of the acetabular proliferative bone, excision of Cam malformations, and minimally invasive repair of the glenoid lip and cartilage of the hip joint.@*CONCLUSION@#Currently, there is no unified standard for the diagnosis and treatment of BDDH with Cam FAI. Minimally invasive treatment of the hip under arthroscopy can achieve good early- and medium-term effectiveness, and has certain advantages in repairing and maintaining the integrity of the glenoid lip and suturing/compression joint capsule. However, the long-term effectiveness needs to be further followed up to determine. The timing of surgery, intraoperative bone edge depth polishing, and joint capsule suturing/compression techniques also need to be further explored.

Luxación controlada de cadera en el tratamiento de la condromatosis sinovial asociada a una lesión tipo cam / Surgical hip dislocation for the treatment of synovial chondromatosis associated with a cam deformity

La condromatosis sinovial es una rara enfermedad benigna del tejido sinovial que puede causar daño articular si no se trata adecuadamente. Mientras que la lesión tipo cam provoca una fricción entre el borde acetabular y la unión cuello-cabeza femoral que puede generar un daño condrolabral y, en su evolución natural, llegar a la artrosis. El tratamiento de la condromatosis sinovial de cadera es controvertido, entre la cirugía abierta o artroscópica, pero debe incluir la extracción completa de los cuerpos libres y la sinovectomía para evitar recurrencias. Por el contrario, la lesión tipo cam puede manejarse con artroscopia en la mayoría de los casos. Presentamos un caso clínico en el que se asocian ambas patologías y que fue tratado mediante luxación controlada de cadera. La elección de la luxación controlada permite una visión completa de la articulación y se ha utilizado con éxito en casos de condromatosis sinovial asociada a la lesión tipo cam. Nivel de Evidencia: IV

Synovial chondromatosis is a rare benign disease of the synovial tissue that can cause joint damage if not properly treated. On the other hand, cam deformity causes friction between the acetabular rim and the femoral neck-head junction, which can lead to chondrolabral damage and, in its natural progression, result in osteoarthritis. The treatment of synovial chondromatosis of the hip is controversial, involving open surgery or arthroscopy, but it should include complete removal of loose bodies and synovectomy to prevent recurrences. In contrast, a cam lesion can often be managed with arthroscopy. We present a clinical case where both conditions were associated and treated with controlled hip dislocation. The choice of controlled dislocation allows for a comprehensive view of the joint and has been successfully used in cases of synovial chondromatosis associated with cam lesions.

Reconstrucción de labrum acetabular bilateral en hipoplasia labral con aloinjerto cadavérico / Bilateral acetabular labrum reconstruction in hypoplastic labrum with cadaveric allograft

El labrum acetabular es una estructura fibrocartilaginosa análoga a los meniscos, labrum glenoideo o fibrocartílago triangular. Cumple diferentes funciones biomecánicas como sellado articular, estabilidad articular, resistencia a la traslación, distribución de presiones, etc. En 2003 se describe que el pinzamiento femoroacetabular y la lesión labral son una de las causas de osteoartritis de la cadera. Existen múltiples clasificaciones para lesiones labrales, sin embargo, la de MAHORN incluye en su tipo II al labrum hipoplásico. La literatura define como labrum acetabular hipoplásico cuando el ancho es ≤5 mm, y puede ser de tipo primario (variante anatómica) o secundario (iatrogénica por desbridamiento previo). Existe un amplio espectro en el tratamiento de las lesiones labrales, que dependerá principalmente del tamaño del labrum, el patrón de la lesión, las características del tejido y la zona afectada; desde desbridamiento hasta reconstrucción labral con el fin de preservar la función biomecánica normal de la cadera y evitar el desarrollo de osteoartritis a largo plazo.A continuación, se describe el caso de un paciente de sexo masculino, de veintiocho años, con antecedente de pinzamiento femoroacetabular mixto bilateral y labrum acetabular hipoplásico bilateral, sometido a reconstrucción primaria de labrum derecho con aloinjerto cadavérico de peroneus longus e izquierdo con aloinjerto cadavérico de tendo Achillis, para el que se obtuvo un resultado clínico y funcional favorable. Nivel de Evidencia: IV

The acetabular labrum is a fibrocartilaginous structure analogous to the menisci, glenoid labrum, or triangular fibrocartilage. It fulfills different biomechanical functions, such as: joint sealing, joint stability, resistance to translation, pressure distribution, etc. In 2003 it was described that femoroacetabular impingement and labral injury is one of the causes of hip osteoarthritis. There are multiple classifications for labral lesions, however the MAHORN classification includes the hypoplastic labrum in its type II. The literature defines a hypoplastic acetabular labrum when its width is ≤5 mm, and it can be primary (anatomical variant) or secondary (iatrogenic due to previous debridement).There is a wide spectrum in the treatment of labral lesions, which mainly depends on the size of the labrum, the pattern of the lesion, the characteristics of the tissue and the affected area; from debridement to labral reconstruction in order to preserve the normal biomechanical function of the hip and avoid the development of osteoarthritis in the long term.The case of a 28-year-old male patient is described below, with a history of bilateral mixed-type femoroacetabular impingement and bilateral hypoplastic acetabular labrum, who underwent primary reconstruction of the right labrum with peroneus longus cadaveric allograft and left labrum with Achilles tendon cadaveric allograft, obtaining a favorable clinical and functional outcome.

Relationship between Femoroacetabular Impingement and Pubalgia in Professional Soccer Players / Relação do impacto femoroacetabular e pubalgia em jogadores profissionais de futebol de campo

Abstract Objective To analyze the relationship between pubalgia and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in professional athletes of a soccer club, defining the prevalence of these conditions in the sample studied. Methods It is an epidemiological, cross-sectional, and analytical study including 90 professional soccer players active from 2019 to 2021. We accessed the medical records of the subjects to retrieve information from the modified Pre-Competition Medical Assessment (PCMA) protocol, orthopedic physical examination, and anteroposterior pelvic radiographs to assess pubalgia and FAI, respectively. Inclusion criteria were athletes playing in the professional soccer club in the 2019 to 2021 season, who underwent a modified PCMA upon admission, and who signed an informed consent form. Results FAI was highly prevalent (85.6%) in the sample. This prevalence may occur because, in Brazil, people start playing sports early, not always in suitable fields, or with no proper equipment and supervision. In addition, the CAM-type impingement was the most frequent (62.2%). These injuries are related to high-intensity movements, including those associated with soccer. Furthermore, there is no dependency correlation between pubalgia and FAI. FAI was present in only 20% of athletes with pubalgia complaints. Conclusion There was a high prevalence of FAI in professional soccer players in the studied population (85.6%) but with no relationship between FAI and pubalgia.

Resumo Objetivo Analisar a relação entre a pubalgia e o impacto femoroacetabular (IFA) em atletas profissionais de um clube de futebol, definindo a prevalência de pubalgia e de impacto femoroacetabular na casuística estudada. Métodos É um estudo epidemiológico, transversal e analítico. Foram selecionados 90 atletas profissionais de futebol atuantes no período de 2019-2021. Foram acessados os prontuários para obtenção do protocolo PCMA modificado, além de exame físico ortopédico e de radiografias da bacia com incidência anteroposterior para avaliação de pubalgia e IFA, respectivamente. Critérios de Inclusão: Atletas que atuaram no clube de futebol de campo profissional na temporada de 2019 a 2021, que foram submetidos a aplicação do PCMA modificado na admissão e que assinaram o TCLE. Resultados O IFA apresentou elevada prevalência na amostra (85.6%), o que pode ocorrer pois, no Brasil, os jovens iniciam a prática esportiva em idade muito precoce, além do fato de os jogadores nem sempre praticarem o esporte em campos adequados ou com equipamentos e supervisão adequada. Ademais, o impacto tipo CAM foi o mais frequente (62.2%). O surgimento dessas lesões é relacionado a movimentos de alta intensidade, como os vistos no futebol. Outrossim, observou-se que não há correlação de dependência entre a pubalgia e o IFA. Foi visto que o IFA estava presente em apenas 20% dos atletas queixosos de pubalgia. Conclusão Há elevada prevalência de IFA em atletas de futebol profissional na população estudada (85.6%) e não houve relação entre o IFA e a presença de pubalgia.

Tratamiento artroscópico del síndrome de fricción femoroacetabular en pacientes con displasia limítrofe. Estudio comparativo / Arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular friction syndrome in patients with borderline dysplasia. Comparative study

Introducción: El tratamiento artroscópico del síndrome de fricción femoroacetabular (SFFA) en displasia de cadera es controversial. Inicialmente, algunos estudios demostraron una tasa elevada de fallas, mientras que otros más recientes describieron una mejoría clínica comparable con pacientes sin falta de cobertura acetabular. El propósito de este estudio fue comparar los resultados clínicos y funcionales de la artroscopía de cadera en dos cohortes: pacientes con displasia borderline y pacientes con ángulo centro-borde normal. Materiales y métodos: evaluamos los resultados clínicos y funcionales utilizando el Harris Hip Score (HHS), Hip Outcome Score (HOS) y l Escala Visual Análoga del Dolor (EVA) del tratamiento artroscópico del SFFA para dos grupos de pacientes: el grupo 1 conformado por aquellos que presentaban displasia borderline (DB) y el grupo 2, compuesto por pacientes con un valor del ángulo centro-borde normal (ACBN). Resultados: los valores postoperatorios de las escalas de HHS y EVA no mostraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los grupos (87.0 ± 5.3 versus 85.8 ± 3.6; p = 0.200 y 1.5 ± 0.6 versus 1.3 ± 0.5; p = 0.07, respectivamente).No se observaron diferencias significativas con respecto a las actividades de la vida diaria del score de HOS (91.8 ± 6.6 versus 93.2 ± 5.9; p = 0.28), ni de deportes, (85.1 ± 7.7 ± 8.3 versus 88.3 ± 11.9; p = 0.19). Conclusión: los pacientes sometidos a una artroscopía de cadera con displasia borderline, alcanzan resultados clínicos y funcionales similares que aquellos con ACBN con una media de seguimiento de tres años. Nivel de Evidencia: III

Introduction: Arthroscopic treatment of femoral-acetabular impingement syndrome in patients with hip dysplasia is controversial. There are some reports that observed an increased failure rate in this type of patients. More recent studies described good patients clinical and functional outcomes, comparable with patients with a normal acetabular coverage. The purpose of this study was to assess functional and clinical outcomes of arthroscopic treatment of FAI in two cohorts: patients with Borderline Dysplasia and patients with a normal lateral center-edge angle. Materials and methods: we assessed patients reported outcomes of two groups of patients: group 1 that consisted in patients with Borderline Dysplasia and group 2, with patients with a normal lateral center-edge angle. The minimum follow-up required was three years. Results: there were no statistically significant differences regarding Harris Hip Score and Visual Analogue Scale of Pain respectively (87.0 ± 5.3 versus 85.8 ± 3.6; p = 0.200 y 1.5 ± 0.6 versus 1.3 ± 0.5; p = 0.07) after surgery between both groups. We didn't observe differences regarding Daily Living Activities (91.8 ± 6,6 versus 93.2 ± 5.9; p = 0.28) or Sports of Hip Outcome Score (85.1 ± 7.7 ± 8.3 versus 88.3 ± 11.9; p = 0.19).Conclusion: arthroscopic treatment of FAI syndrome in patients with borderline dysplasia, achieves good clinical and functional outcomes, comparable with patients with a normal lateral center-edge angle.

Cirugía de prótesis de cadera en el adulto con enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes / Total hip arthroplasty in adults with Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease

Objetivos: Revisar las cirugías de prótesis totales de cadera realizadas en nuestro hospital, determinar el origen de la artrosis e identificar cuántas se colocaron por coxartrosis secundarias a enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo en el que se revisaron todas las cirugías de prótesis totales de cadera desde 2008 hasta diciembre de 2021. Se evaluaron las radiografías prequirúrgicas para determinar la etiología de la artrosis, y se consideraron variables, como lateralidad, sexo y edad en el momento de la intervención. Resultados: Se revisaron 1103 caderas en 935 pacientes. El 81% correspondía a coxartrosis primaria. En 11 caderas de 10 pacientes (1%), se detectó coxartrosis secundaria a la enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes. La media de la edad de estos pacientes era de 61 años. Conclusiones: Hay evidencia de que las alteraciones del crecimiento de la fisis femoral proximal o el sobrecrecimiento del trocánter mayor, propias de la enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes, pueden contribuir a la aparición de un choque femoroacetabular, con su consiguiente coxartrosis precoz. Es posible que algunas "mal clasificadas" coxartrosis primarias fueran identificadas así porque no existía otro dato sugerente de coxartrosis secundarias, y escondieran otra etiología evolucionada. Asimismo, proponemos el seguimiento del paciente joven con enfermedad de Legg-Calvé-Perthes, más allá del final del crecimiento, para identificar el choque femoroacetabular en sus inicios y poder ofrecer opciones terapéuticas artroscópicas. Nivel de Evidencia: III

Objectives: To review the number of total hip replacements (THA) performed in our hospital, determine their aetiology and identify how many of them were performed for hip osteoarthritis secondary to Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD). Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective study reviewing all THA surgeries from 2008 to December 2021. We studied the pre-operative radiographs, determining the aetiology of the osteoarthritis, laterality, sex and age of the patient at the time of surgery. Results: We reviewed a total of 1103 hips in 935 patients. Primary hip osteoarthritis accounted for 81% of the cases. We gathered a total of 11 hips from 10 individuals (1%), with a mean age of 61 years, for hip osteoarthritis secondary to LCPD. Conclusions:There is evidence that femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI), which results in early secondary hip osteoarthritis, may be influenced by changes in the growth of the proximal femoral physis or overgrowth of the greater trochanter, which are characteristics of LCPD. We believe that certain cases of "misclassified" primary hip osteoarthritis may have been incorrectly identified since no additional information was found to support the diagnosis of secondary hip osteoarthritis, hiding the potential of an alternate, evolved aetiology. Furthermore, we suggest monitoring young patients with LCPD after their growth is complete in order to detect early FAI and provide arthroscopic therapeutic options. Level of Evidence: III

Impact of the Preoperative Spinopelvic Parameters on the Segmental Lordosis Correction after One-level Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion / Impacto dos parâmetros espinopélvicos pré-operatórios na correção de lordose segmentar após fusão intersomática lombar por via lateral de um nível

Abstract Objectives The present study aimed to assess whether preoperative spinopelvic parameters can influence the gain of segmental lordosis after one level of lateral lumbar interbody fusion. Methods The following radiological parameters were measured in the X-rays: pelvic incidence, lumbar lordosis, pelvic tilt, L4S1 lordosis, index level segmental lordosis, intraoperative index segmental lordosis, pelvic mismatch (IP-LL), distal lordosis proportion, delta segmental lordosis, Pelvic Titlt (PT) > 20, actual sacral slope, and ideal sacral slope, and the correlation of these variables with the gain of segmental lordosis was investigated. Afterwards, an exploratory cluster analysis was performed to identify common characteristics between patients and segmental lordosis gain. Results The sample of the present study comprised 104 patients, of which 76% presented segmental lordosis gain. The most correlated parameters with the segmental lordosis gain were preoperative segmental lordosis (−0.50) and delta intraoperative lordosis (0.51). Moreover, patients in the high PI groups had a trend to gain more segmental lordosis (p< 0.05) and a reduced risk of losing segmental lordosis (Odds 6.08). Conclusion Patients with low-medium PI profiles presented higher odds of loss of segmental lordosis. However, the preoperative spinopelvic parameters alone do not seem to play a significant role in the fate of segmental lordosis gain.

Resumo Objetivos O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar se os parâmetros espinopélvicos pré-operatórios podem influenciar o ganho da lordose segmental após fusão intersomática lombar por via lateral de um nível. Métodos Os seguintes parâmetros radiológicos foram medidos nos raios X: incidência pélvica, lordose lombar, versão pélvica, lordose L4S1, lordose segmental do nível operado, índice intraoperatório de lordose segmentar, mismatch pélvico (IP-LL), proporção de lordose distal, delta de lordose segmentar, PT > 20, inclinação sacral real e inclinação sacral ideal, e a correlação dessas variáveis com o ganho da lordose segmentar foi investigada. Posteriormente, foi realizada uma análise exploratória de cluster para identificar características comuns entre os pacientes e o ganho de lordose segmentar. Resultados O presente estudo contou com 144 pacientes, dos quais 76% apresentaram ganho de lordose segmentar. Os parâmetros mais correlacionados com o ganho de lordose segmentar foram lordose segmentar pré-operatória (−0,50) e delta intraoperatório de lordose (0,51). Além disso, os pacientes dos grupos de incidência pélvica (IP) alto tiveram tendência de ganho de lordose segmental maior (p< 0,05) e redução do risco de perda de lordose segmental (chances 6.08). Conclusão Pacientes com perfis de IP médios baixos apresentaram maiores chances de perda de lordose segmentar. No entanto, os parâmetros espinopélvicos pré-operatórios por si só não parecem desempenhar um papel significativo no destino do ganho da lordose segmentar.

Correlation between Intensity of Pain and Disability Due to Intra-articular Lesions in Patients with Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome / Correlação entre intensidade da dor e incapacidade com as lesões intra-articulares em pacientes com síndrome do impacto femoroacetabular

Abstract Objective To correlate radiographic alterations and lesions in intra-articular structures of the acetabulum with the intensity of pain and disability of patients diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. Methods A retrospective analysis of the preoperative data of 182 patients (190 hips) was performed. Clinical variables such as age, gender, the practice of physical activity, and radiographic variables, such as the Wiberg and alpha angles, were evaluated. Through an intraoperative video, the extent of the chondral and labial lesions was evaluated considering the clock-face method, the degree of joint involvement by the Outerbridge classification, and the presence of wave lesions. The variables were analyzed by linear regression, with the intensity of the pain assessed by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and functional disability measured by the Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS). Results The mean age of the patients was of 38.5 ± 9.6 years, the mean intensity of the pain was of 7.8 ± 1.6, and the mean mHHS score was of 56.3 ± 12.7. In total, 61% of the sample were classified as Outerbridge III or IV, and 12.6% had wave lesions. There was a correlation between the male gender (r = 0.497) and lower intensity of the pain, and a correlation of age (r = -0.27), the male gender (r = 8.419) and physical activity with higher functional scores on the mHHS (r = 4.729). Conclusion There was no correlation of the radiographic and arthroscopic parameters of the present study and the intensity of pain and the disability of the patients. The male gender is related to lower intensity of pain, and higher functional ability is related to the male gender, lower age, and the practice of physical activity. Level of Evidence IV.

Treatment of Hip Wave Lesion Using Reverse Microfracture: A Retrospective Clinical Study / Tratamento da lesão em onda do quadril através da microfratura reversa: Estudo clínico retrospectivo

Abstract Objective The present study aims to evaluate the treatment of hip wave lesion using reverse microfracture, which is a simple and cheap surgical procedure. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 19 patients with acetabular wave lesion treated with reverse microfracture. The patients were assessed by magnetic nuclear resonance imaging (MRI) at the time of diagnosis and 6 months after the surgery and functionally evaluated using the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain in the preoperative period, and 3 and 6 months after the surgery. Results The statistical data showed a significant improvement in HHS and VAS 6 months after the surgery. Six months after the surgery, the MRI revealed that the area subjected to reverse microfracture presented cartilage with the same visual characteristics observed in areas with no chondral injury. Conclusion We conclude that the reverse microfracture proved to be an effective, reproducible method for the treatment of wave lesion.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar o tratamento desta lesão, através da microfratura reversa, que é um procedimento simples e sem aumento de insumos na cirurgia. Métodos Foram analisados retrospectivamente 19 pacientes submetidos a tratamento da lesão em onda no acetábulo, através da microfratura reversa. Utilizamos a ressonância nuclear magnética (RNM) no momento do diagnóstico e 6 meses após a cirurgia, avaliação funcional pelo Harris Hip Score (HHS) e escala visual e analógica (EVA) da dor no pré-operatório, e 3 e 6 meses após a cirurgia. Resultadoos dados estatísticos mostraram melhora significativa do HHS e EVA da dor após 6 meses da cirurgia. A RNM após 6 meses da cirurgia mostrou que na área que foi submetida à microfratura reversa, a cartilagem se apresentou com as mesmas características visuais que nas áreas sem lesão condral. Conclusão Concluímos que a microfratura reversa se mostrou eficaz e reprodutível no tratamento da lesão em onda.

Dolor de cadera en adolescentes: estudio y tratamiento / Hip pain in adolescent: assessment and treatment

En adolescentes que consultan por dolor de cadera o pelvis, es crucial una adecuada historia clínica para orientarnos sobre la etiología del dolor y comprender los mecanismos que lo generan. Es importante conocer y realizar un exhaustivo examen físico, con especial énfasis en la cadera, incluyendo pruebas específicas para diferentes patologías, además de comprender las indicaciones de los diferentes estudios de imágenes, para así lograr un correcto diagnóstico.Entre las causas más frecuentes de coxalgia en adolescentes debemos considerar la epifisiolisis, el pinzamiento femoroacetabular con o sin roturas del labrum, las lesiones avulsivas de la pelvis, la coxa saltans, entre otras. Aunque son poco frecuentes, patologías sistémicas como reumatológicas y oncológicas también deben ser descartadas en adolescentes. Un diagnóstico de certeza nos permitirá realizar una adecuada estrategia de tratamiento, a fin de lograr una rehabilitación precoz y evitar futuras complicaciones.

In adolescents presenting with hip or pelvis pain, an adequate medical history is crucial to guide the etiology and understand the mechanisms that generate it. It is important to know and carry out an exhaustive physical examination, with special attention to the hip, including specific tests for different pathologies, in addition to understand the indications of the different imaging studies, in order to achieve a correct diagnosis. Among the most frequent causes of hip pain in adolescents, we must rule out slipped capital femoral epiphysis, femoroacetabular impingement with or without labral tears, avulsion lesions of the pelvis, snapping hip, among others. Although rare, systemic pathologies such as rheumatologic and oncologic diseases must also be ruled out in adolescents. An accurate diagnosis will allow us to carry out an adequate treatment strategy, in order to achieve early rehabilitation and avoid future complications.

Arthroscopic Treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement in Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysiolysis: A Case Report / Tratamento artroscópico do impacto femoroacetabular na epifisiólise capital femoral proximal: Relato de caso

Abstract Slipped capital femoral epiphysiolysis (SCFE) may result in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) of the hip in up to one third of the cases. Residual deformity of the cam-type, or "pistol-grip", is associated with chondrolabral injury, resulting in pain, functional disability, and early osteoarthritis. The arthroscopic treatment with osteochondroplasty proved to be beneficial in a selected case of FAI secondary to SCFE.

Resumo A epifisiólise capital femoral proximal (ECFP) pode resultar em impacto femoroacetabular (IFA) do quadril em até um terço dos casos. A deformidade residual em came ou "cabo de pistola" está associada a lesão condrolabral, resultando em dor, incapacidade funcional, e osteoartrose precoce. O tratamento artroscópico com osteocondroplastia mostrou-se benéfico em um caso selecionado de IFA secundário a ECFP.

Arthroscopic labrum reconstruction for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome: 12 cases report / 北京大学学报(医学版)

To investigate the surgical effect of hip arthroscopic labrum reconstruction. A retrospective study was performed on the clinical data of 12 patients who underwent hip arthroscopic labrum reconstruction in our department from September 2017 to February 2021 and were followed up for 5-46 months, with an average of 21.5 months. All the patients had a hip joint space of more than 2 mm, and Tonnis grade less than level Ⅱ. These 12 patients underwent arthroscopic debridement of hyperplastic synovium, femoral head and neck and/or acetabular osteoplasty, and labrum reconstruction using autograft iliotibial band or gracilis tendon. After the surgery, we conducted follow-up and data collection, recorded the satisfaction of the patients and occurrence of complications, as well as the cartilage lesion of hip joint observed under the arthroscopy. We compared the alpha angle of Dunn X-ray film, center-edge angle (CE angle) of AP X-ray film, modified Harris hip score (mHHS score), hip outcome score (HOS), international hip outcome tool 12 score (iHOT12 Score), and visual analogue scale (VAS scale) before and after the arthroscopic operation, to assess clinical symptom relief and joint function recovery. The 12 patients were followed up for 5-46 (21.5±12.8) months. The VAS scale were (5.3±2.5) and (2.5±1.4) before and after the surgery, showing significant decrease (P=0.018). The mHHS score were (60.6±22.2) and (83.1±5.8) before and after the surgery, showing significant increase (P=0.003). The patient satisfaction was high (7.8±2.0) (range: 0-10). None of the 12 patients had serious complications, revision surgery, or total hip replacement at the end of the last follow-up. Autologous tendon transplantation for reconstruction of acetabular labrum under arthroscopy can improve the clinical symptoms and joint function of patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), which is a safe and effective treatment.

Satisfacción y retorno deportivo luego de tratamiento artroscópico del síndrome de fricción femoroacetabular / Satisfaction and return-to-sport after arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome

Introducción: El síndrome de fricción femoroacetabular (SFFA) es frecuentemente diagnosticado en atletas que participan en deportes con súbitos cambios de dirección como fútbol, básquet, tenis y en otras actividades con rangos suprafisiológicos de movimiento, como el ballet o yoga. El objetivo del presente estudio es evaluar el retorno al deporte de los pacientes a los que se les realizó una artroscopía de cadera como tratamiento del SFFA. Materiales y métodos: se incluyeron pacientes que realizaban deportes antes de la cirugía y que fueron tratados mediante una artroscopía de cadera por diagnóstico de SFFA, con un seguimiento mínimo de dos años. Todos fueron evaluados mediante una encuesta escrita acerca del deporte que realizaban, el tiempo de retorno a la práctica, en qué nivel competitivo la llevaban a cabo y la satisfacción con la cirugía. Se evaluaron los scores mediante Harris Hip Score modificado (mHHS) y la escala de Tegner antes y después de la cirugía. Resultados: se evaluaron ciento cuatro artroscopías de cadera, con seguimiento promedio de 29.4 meses (rango 24 ­ 46), en cuarenta y cinco (43.3%) mujeres y cincuenta y nueve (56.7%) hombres. Observamos que noventa y seis (92.3%) pacientes fueron capaces de retornar a su actividad deportiva con una media de 4.7 meses (rango 2-9). Ocho (7.7%) pacientes no pudieron retornar al deporte luego de la cirugía. Del total de la muestra, el 95.2% refirió estar conforme con la cirugía. Las puntuaciones del mHHS mostraron un incremento estadísticamente significativo (69.2 ± 4.8 versus 87.5 ± 4.4; p <0.05). No hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas con los puntajes observados en la escala de actividad de Tegner (6.6 ± 0.9 versus 6.3 ± 1; p >0.05). Discusión: previamente se ha documentado en la literatura que la mayoría de los pacientes que realizan actividad deportiva recreacional, y que fueron sometidos a una artroscopía de cadera por presentar SFFA, pueden retornar a su actividad deportiva previa y presentan un alto índice de satisfacción postoperatoria. Nuestros resultados se condicen con la bibliografía.Conclusión: el tratamiento artroscópico del SFFA, en pacientes que realizan deportes de forma recreacional, brinda una tasa elevada (>90%) de satisfacción, de retorno a la práctica y a un nivel similar al que presentaban antes de la cirugía

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess return to sport of patients after hip arthroscopy for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAI). Materials and Methods: patients with sports activity prior to surgery and who underwent hip arthroscopy due to FAI syndrome, with minimum follow-up of two years were included. All patients had to complete a written survey about type of sports they performed, sports return, competition level and satisfaction with surgery. Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) was assessed, and level of sport activity was registered, according to Tegner's Activity Scale.Results: one hundred and four hip arthroscopies were available for full analysis with minimum follow-up of 29.4 (24 ­ 46) months. We observed ninety-six (92.3%) patients were able to return to same prior sports activity at a mean of 4.7 (range 2 ­ 9) months. Eight (7.7%) patients were unable to return to sports after surgery. 95.2% reported agreement with hip surgery. mHHS score showed an statistically significant increase after surgery (69.2 ± 4.8 versus 87.5 ± 4.4; p <0.05). There was no significant difference in Tegner's Activity Scale. Discussion: several authors sustain that patients with recreational sports activity who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome, achieve excellent outcomes, and able to return to their prior level of competition with a high rate of satisfaction. Our results are similar, according with literature. Conclusion: FAI treatment with arthroscopy achieves high rates of satisfaction and sports return, with similar competition level before surgery

Clinical outcomes of hip arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement:a comparative study between Inside-out and Outside-in approach / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the clinical outcomes and complications of hip arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) performed with either Inside-out or Outside-in approach.@*METHODS@#The clinical date of 48 patients with FAI treated by hip arthroscopy surgery and follow-up from June 2016 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different operative methods, the patients were divided into two groups. Inside-out group, from central compartment to peripheral compartment;Outside-in group, from peripheral compartment to central compartment. There were 14 males and 10 females in Inside-out group with an averageage of (39.8±7.6)years old, 13 males and 11 females in Inside-out group with an average age of (39.5±9.1)years old in Outside-in group. There was no significant difference in age, gender, body mass index, side, impingement type, medical history and follow-up time between the two groups. The complication occurrence rate, modified Harris hip score (mHHS)and nonarthritic hip score (NAHS) were compared between these two groups.@*RESULTS@#The mHHs and NAHS scores of the two groups were significantly higher than those before operation, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (@*CONCLUSION@#Both hip arthroscopic surgery methods can obtain satisfactory clinical efficacy in the treatment of FAI, but the incidence of postoperative complications of Outside-in surgical method is lower. The out-side in method can be preferentially selected for the patients with the indications of operation.

Clinical effects of tranexamic acid in arthroscope for femoroacetabular impingement / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the clinical effects of tranexamic acid in arthroscope for femoroacetabular impingement.@*METHODS@#Totally 34 patients (34 hips) with femoroacetabular impingement underwent hip arthroscopy from June 2016 to December 2018, were randomly divided into two groups named as tranexamic acid group and control group, 17 patients in each group. In TXA group, there were 10 males and 7 females, aged from 20 to 49 years old with an average of (32.1±7.6) years old;15 mg/kg TXA was intravenous drops before operation incision performed at 10 min. In control group, there were 11 males and 6 females, aged from 20 to 49 years old with an average of (30.9±6.2) years old;100 ml normal saline was intravenous drops before operation incision performed at 10 min. Introopertaive and total bloodloss between two groups were compared. Visual analogue scale (VAS) at 3 and 7 days after opertaion were used to evaluate pain relief of hip joint. Modified Harris Hip Score(mHHS) of hip joint at 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks after oeprtaion were applied to evaluate clinical effects.@*RESULTS@#All patients were obtained follow up over 12 weeks. Incision healed well without infection and deep vein thrombosis. There were no statistical difference in opertaion time bewteen two groups(@*CONCLUSION@#Preoperative application of tranexamic acid could effectively reduce blood loss in arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement, thereby improving surgical field of vision, reducing difficulty of surgical operation, which could promote early and rapid rehabilitation of hip function.

Subspine Hip Impingement: Clinical and Radiographic Results of its Arthroscopic Treatment / Impacto subespinhal do quadril: Resultados clínicos e radiográficos do tratamento artroscópico

Abstract Objective To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results as well as complications related to patients undergoing arthroscopic treatment of subspine hip impingement. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 25 patients (28 hips) who underwent arthroscopic treatment of subspine impingement between January 2012 and June 2018. The mean follow-up was 29.5 months, and the patients were evaluated clinically by using the Harris hip score modified by Byrd (MHHS), the non-arthritic hip score (NAHS), and in terms of internal rotation and hip flexion. In addition, the following items were evaluated by imaging exams: the center-edge (CE) acetabular angle, the Alpha angle, the presence of a sign of the posterior wall, the degree of arthrosis, the presence of heterotopic hip ossification, and the Hetsroni classification for subspine impingement. Results There was an average postoperative increase of 26.9 points for the MHHS, 25.4 for the NAHS (p < 0.0001), 10.5° in internal rotation (p < 0.0024), and 7.9° for hip flexion (p < 0.0001). As for the radiographic evaluation, an average reduction of 3.3° in the CE angle and of 31.6° for the Alpha angle (p < 0.0001). Eighteen cases (64.3%) were classified as grade 0 osteoarthritis of Tönnis, and 10 (35.7%) were classified as Tönnis grade 1. Two cases (7.1%) presented grade 1 ossification of Brooker. Most hips (n = 15, 53.6%) were classified as type II of Hetsroni et al. Conclusion In the present study, patients undergoing arthroscopic treatment with subspine impingement showed improvement in clinical aspects and radiographic patterns measured postoperatively, with an average follow-up of 29.5 months.

Functional Outcomes of Arthroscopic Treatment in Femoroacetabular Impingement in Patients over 60 Years Old Compared with Patients Aged 40 Years or Younger / Resultados funcionais do tratamento artroscópico no impacto femoroacetabular em pacientes com mais de 60 anos em comparação com pacientes com 40 anos ou menos

Abstract Objective To evaluate the functional outcomes of patients diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) older than 60 years, compared with those of patients of age 40 years or younger. Methods This was a retrospective review of patients with FAI who underwent hip arthroscopy between 2010 and 2015. The patients were adults aged over 60 years with Tönnis ≤ 1 matched in a 1:1 ratio with adults aged 40 years or younger, according to the type of deformity (cam, pincer, or mixed), sex, and the date when the surgery was performed. Results Thirty-four patients were included in each group. The mean age was 30.6 ± 6.9 years and 65.6 ± 4.6 years in the control and case groups, respectively. There were no significant differences between the groups at 1-year follow-up (p > 0.05). In the group with older patients (case group), we observed a change in the total Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score from 46.3 to 22.0 in the 1st postoperative year, while the control cases improved in the WOMAC score from 38.1 to 7.2 in relation to the preoperative stage. Conclusion In the group of patients ≤ 40 years old, a considerable change was observed in the WOMAC score without a statistical significance compared with the > 60 years group. This observation suggests that hip arthroscopy is beneficial when there is an appropriate selection of patients with FAI, regardless the age of the patient.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar os resultados funcionais de pacientes diagnosticados com impacto femoroacetabular (IFA) e com mais de 60 anos de idade em comparação aos resultados de pacientes com até 40 anos de idade. Métodos Esta é uma revisão retrospectiva de pacientes com IFA submetidos à artroscopia do quadril entre 2010 e 2015. Os pacientes eram adultos com mais de 60 anos de idade e Tönnis ≤ 1, alocados na proporção de 1:1 com adultos de até 40 anos de idade, de acordo com o tipo de deformidade (came, pincer, ou misto), sexo e data de realização da cirurgia. Resultados Trinta e quatro pacientes foram incluídos em cada grupo. A idade média foi de 30,6 ± 6,9 anos e 65,6 ± 4,6 anos nos grupos controle e de casos, respectivamente. Não houve diferenças significativas entre os grupos no acompanhamento de 1 ano (p > 0.05). No primeiro ano após a cirurgia, a pontuação Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) passou de 46,3 para 22,0 no grupo de pacientes mais velhos (casos) e de 38,1 para 7,2 no grupo controle em comparação ao estágio pré-operatório. Conclusão O grupo de pacientes com até 40 anos de idade apresentou uma mudança considerável na pontuação WOMAC, mas sem significado estatístico em comparação ao grupo de pacientes acima de 60 anos. Essa observação sugere que a artroscopia do quadril é benéfica quando a seleção de pacientes com IFA é apropriada, independentemente da idade dos indivíduos.

Femoroacetabular Impingement and Acetabular Labral Tears - Part 2: Clinical Diagnosis, Physical Examination and Imaging / Impacto femoroacetabular e lesão do lábio acetabular - Parte 2: Diagnóstico clínico, exame físico e imagiologia

Abstract The clinical diagnosis of femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) continues to evolve as the understanding of normal and pathological hips progresses. Femoral acetabular impingement is currently defined as a syndrome in which the diagnosis consists of the combination of a previously-obtained comprehensive clinical history, followed by a consistent and standardized physical examination with specific orthopedic maneuvers. Additionally, radiographic and tomographic examinations are used for the morphological evaluation of the hip, and to ascertain the existence of sequelae of childhood hip diseases and the presence of osteoarthritis. The understanding of the femoral and acetabular morphologies and versions associated with images of labral and osteochondral lesions obtained through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contributes to the confirmation of this syndrome in symptomatic patients, and helps in the exclusion of differential diagnoses such as iliopsoas tendon snaps, subspine impingement, ischiofemoral impingement, and other hip joint pathologies.

Resumo O diagnóstico clínico do impacto femoroacetabular continua a evoluir conforme o entendimento dos quadris normal e patológico progride. Impacto femoroacetabular é atualmente definido como uma síndrome na qual o diagnóstico se baseia no somatório de uma história clínica abrangente obtida previamente, seguida de um exame físico coerente e padronizado com manobras ortopédicas específicas. Além disso, exames radiográficos e tomográficos são usados para a avaliação morfológica do quadril, e para verificar a existência de sequelas de doenças do quadril da infância e a presença de osteoartrose. O entendimento da morfologia e versão femoral e acetabular associado às imagens de lesões labrais e osteocondrais obtidas com a ressonância magnética contribuem para a confirmação da síndrome nos pacientes sintomáticos, além de auxiliar na exclusão de diagnósticos diferenciais, como ressalto do tendão do músculo iliopsoas, impacto subespinhal, impacto isquiofemoral, e outras patologias da articulação do quadril.
