ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical and radiological outcome, sum of acetabular and femoral cartilage thickness, and rate of failure in the midterm after arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome with femoral osteoplasty, labral repair, and rim trimming without labral detachment. METHODS: This retrospective case series included patients with FAI syndrome who had undergone hip arthroscopy from January 2009 to December 2010 by a single surgeon, with a minimum follow-up of 55 months. Data from patients who had undergone arthroscopic hip procedures with labral repair, rim trimming, and femoral osteoplasty were analyzed pre- and postoperatively. Clinical outcome (nonarthritic hip score [NAHS], Short Form 36 [SF-36]), range of motion, progression of osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade), radiological parameters (α angle, lateral center-edge angle [LCEA], Tönnis angle), femoral and acetabular cartilage thickness (using magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]), and intraoperative findings were evaluated. RESULTS: Of 148 hip arthroscopies performed, 97 included rim trimming, labral refixation, and femoral osteoplasty. Ten cases were lost to follow-up, leaving 87 hips. Arthroscopic revision was performed on 4 hips and total hip replacement on 4 hips, and 1 hip underwent both arthroscopic revision and total hip replacement. Excluding these 9 cases of revision, for which follow-up was not possible (retrospective study), the remaining 78 hips were followed up for a minimum of 55 months (77 ± 11.4, mean ± SD; range 55 to 124). Mean NAHS (65 to 88, P < .001), SF-36 physical subscale (65 to 85, P < .001), and the numerical pain rating scale (NRS) (5 to 1, P < .001) improved significantly. Outcome scores of minimal clinical importance (NAHS) were achieved in 67.6% of the patients. Mean range of movement improved significantly in flexion (109 to 122, P < .001) and internal rotation (10 to 22.7, P < .001). NAHS was positively associated with flexion of the hip postoperatively (r = 0.307, P = .011). In 16 cases, microfracture was performed (15 acetabular and 1 femoral). Preoperative α angles (anteroposterior and modified Dunn) were significantly higher in this cohort (P < .001, 95% confidence interval 8.9 to 25.2, P = .001). Twenty hips (28 %) progressed to worse Tönnis grades. Initial Tönnis grades were grade 0, 38; grade 1, 48; grade 2, 8. Pre- or postoperative Tönnis grades did not show any correlation with pre- or postoperative NAHS and NRS. MRI measurements at the latest follow-up (69 patients) of the femoral and acetabular cartilage thickness did not reveal any significant reduction at the 12 o'clock position. CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic cam resection, rim trimming, and labral repair without detachment of the labrum provides good or excellent outcome in 77.1% of hips based on NAHS in the midterm. Higher range of motion in flexion is associated with higher NAHS postoperatively. Arthroscopic cam resection, rim trimming and labral repair without detachment of the labrum is a successful method for the treatment of FAI syndrome in the midterm. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, retrospective case series.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The objectives of this study were the evaluation of flexor tendon pulley rupture of the fingers in the crimp grip position using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the comparison of the results with MRI in the neutral position in a cadaver study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: MRI in the crimp grip position and in the neutral position was performed in 21 cadaver fingers with artificially created flexor tendon pulley tears (combined pulley rupture, n = 14; single pulley rupture, n = 7). Measurement of the distance between the tendon and bone was performed. Images were evaluated by two readers, first independently and in cases of discrepancy in consensus. Sensitivity and specificity for detecting combined pulley ruptures were calculated. RESULTS: Tendon bone distances were significantly higher in the crimp grip position than in the neutral position. Sensitivity and specificity for detecting combined pulley rupture were 92.86 % and 100 % respectively in the crimp grip position and 78.57 % and 85.71 % respectively in the neutral position. Kappa values for interobserver reliability were 0.87 in the crimp grip position and 0.59 in the neutral position. CONCLUSION: MRI examination in the crimp grip position results in higher tendon bone distances by subjecting the pulleys to a higher strain, which facilitates image evaluation with higher interobserver reliability, higher sensitivity, and higher specificity for combined pulley rupture compared with examination in the neutral position.
