RESUMO
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine if severe lateral patella facet osteoarthritis (LPFOA) was related to lower survivorship and poor patient-reported outcomes following fixed-bearing lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). METHODS: There were 61 patients who underwent a fixed-bearing, non-robotically assisted, lateral UKA between May 7, 2003 and December 18, 2019 and met the inclusion criteria. The patello-femoral joint was examined intraoperatively for chondral damage prior to UKA implantation. Severe LPFOA was defined as Outerbridge grade 3 or 4 changes on the lateral facet. All patients completed subjective functional outcomes questionnaires and a clinical exam at a minimum of 4 years following UKA. RESULTS: Severe LFPFOA was identified in 28 (46%) patients. At a mean follow-up of 10.9 years, there were no significant differences in any Knee Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (KOOS ) subscale or Kujala scores between patients who had and did not have severe LFPOA. There was no significant difference in the percentage of patients who achieved Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) for the KOOS subscales between groups. Mean survival in patients who did not have severe LFPFOA was 16.6 years [95% CI (confidence interval), 15.4 to 17.7] compared to 18.9 years [95% CI, 17.6 to 20.2] in patients who had severe LFPFOA (P = 0.62). CONCLUSION: Severe LFPFOA did not result in lower survival or inferior functional outcomes compared to patients who did not have severe OA at average 10-year follow-up after fixed-bearing lateral UKA.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient knees are no longer considered a contra-indication for unicompartment knee arthroplasty (UKA). The purpose of this study was to determine if patients who had an ACL-deficient knee who underwent lateral UKAs had similar mean 10-year outcomes compared to ACL-intact lateral UKA knees. METHODS: Patients who underwent a lateral UKA with ACL deficiency by a single surgeon between 2004 and 2016, were identified. Preoperative magnetic resonance images (MRI) were utilized to identify a torn or absent ACL in all knees. The absence of an ACL was confirmed during arthroscopy prior to UKA. Patients were matched 1:2 based on age and sex with patients who underwent lateral UKA where the ACL was intact. The primary patient-reported outcome variable was survival without conversion to total knee arthroplasty. Secondary outcomes included Veterans Rand (VR)-12, the Lysholm score, the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Activities of Daily Living subscale, and Sport subscale. A power analysis showed that 14 patients were needed to identify differences of 10 points on the KOOS score with a power of 80%(p=0.05). RESULTS: The cohort of ACL-deficient lateral UKA patients included 4 men and 12 women (43 to 82 years of age). The matched control group included 32 patients. The mean age of both groups was 67 years (range, 43 to 85). There were two patients in the ACL-deficient group who failed. At 10 years, survivorship in the ACL-deficient group was 85%, while survival in the ACL-intact group was 100% (P = 0.035). At an average follow-up of 11 years (range, 4 to 19.6), there was no difference in outcome scores between ACL-deficient and ACL-intact patients. CONCLUSION: Fixed-bearing lateral UKA in the ACL-deficient knee resulted in lower survival compared to patients who had an intact ACL. Patient-reported outcomes were similar in both groups. The ACL-deficient patient who wishes to undergo lateral UKA should be counseled on the lower survival.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine if preoperative mental health status improves following unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in patients with single compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: A total of 163 patients underwent UKA [115 (71%) medial, 48 (29%) lateral] (mean age = 65 ± 11) completed preoperative and minimum 2-year postoperative veterans RAND 12 item health survey (VR-12) mental component score (MCS). VR-12 MCS was the primary outcome measure. Secondary measures included VR-12 physical component summary score (PCS), knee osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) and KOOS patient acceptable symptom state at the final follow-up. RESULTS: The median VR-12 MCS improved from 50.5 [interquartile range (IQR): 43.7-56.8] to 55.0 [IQR: 52.3-57.0] (p < 0.001) at a mean follow-up of 9.5 ± 4 years (range 2-19 years) following UKA. Preoperative VR-12 MCS was significantly correlated with patients postoperative VR-12 PCS (ρ = 0.294, p < 0.01), KOOS pain (ρ = 0.201, p = 0.012), KOOS ADL (ρ = 0.243, p = 0.002) and KOOS quality of life (ρ = 0.233, p < 0.01). Sixty-three (39%) patients improved from low VR-12 MCS (<50) to normal VR-12 MCS (≥50). One hundred forty-two (87%) achieved a normal VR-12 MCS score (≥50) postoperatively. CONCLUSION: At a mean of 10-year follow-up, patients who underwent UKA for single compartment osteoarthritic knee pain demonstrated significant improvement in mental health scores. UKA resulted in normal mental health in a majority of patients (87%). The resultant improved mental health scores were associated with improved patient pain and activities of daily living. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III retrospective cohort study.

PURPOSE: To compare return to sport, functional outcomes, recurrence of instability, and osteoarthritis (OA) between collision/contact and limited/noncontact athletes following arthroscopic labral reconstruction with a modified inferior capsular shift for anterior shoulder instability. METHODS: Athletes underwent an arthroscopic labral reconstruction with a modified inferior capsular shift by the senior author between 1999 and 2018. Inclusion criteria were labral stripping from 12 (just beyond the biceps anchor) to 6 o'clock, less than 20% glenoid bone loss, active sports participation, and no previous surgery. Athletes were divided into collision/contact and limited/noncontact groups. Outcome measures, physical examination, and radiographic evaluation were collected at a minimum 5-year follow-up. Reoperations or any subjective laxity were considered failures. Radiographs were analyzed for OA using the Samilson-Prieto Radiological Classification. RESULTS: Ninety-two patients underwent arthroscopic labral reconstruction with a modified inferior capsular shift. Sixty-four met the inclusion criteria. Thirty-eight (age = 26.0 ± 8.0 years) participated in at least 1 collision/contact sport, and 26 (age = 38.0 ± 9.0 years) participated in limited/noncontact sports. Two (5%) collision/contact and 3 (12%) limited/noncontact athletes had traumatic reinjury requiring revision surgery. Of the remaining athletes (59/64), minimum 5-year follow-up was obtained on 54 (92%), with a mean follow-up of 12 ± 4 years (range 5-23 years). All athletes returned to their original sport at the same level. There was no significant difference between collision/contact and limited/noncontact athletes in timing of return to sports (5.2 ± 1.9 and 6.0 ± 3.1 months, respectively; P = .389). There were no significant differences between groups on any outcomes scores. CONCLUSIONS: Arthroscopic labral reconstruction with a modified inferior capsular shift addressed anterior instability with return to sport for both collision/contact and limited/noncontact athletes with excellent functional and clinical outcomes, full shoulder range of motion, and a low prevalence of advanced OA at minimum 5-year follow-up. This modified technique resulted in a low failure rate in both limited/noncontact and collision/contact athletes.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Lateral facet patellar osteoarthritis (LFPOA) has been reported as a contraindication for medial unicompartmental (UKA). The purpose of this paper was to determine if severe LFPOA was related to lower survivorship and patient-reported outcomes following medial UKA. METHODS: A total of 170 medial UKAs were performed. Severe LFPOA was defined as Outerbridge grade 3 to 4 damage on the lateral facet cartilage surfaces of the patella as noted intraoperatively. There were 122 of 170 patients (72%) who had noLFPOA and 48 of 170 patients (28%) who had had severe LFPOA. A routine patelloplasty was performed in all patients. Patients completed the Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey (VR-12) Mental Component Score (MCS) and Physical Component Score (PCS), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and Knee Society Score. RESULTS: There were 4 patients in the noLFPOA group who required total knee arthroplasty and 2 in the LFPOA group. There was no significant difference in mean survival time: noLFPOA = 17.2 years [95% confidence interval (CI): 17 to 18] and LFPOA = 18.0 years [95% CI: 17 to 19] (P = .94). At mean follow-up of 10 years, there were no significant differences in knee flexion or extension. Patello-femoral crepitus without pain was noted in 7 patients who had LFPOA and 21 patients who had noLFPOA. There were no significant differences in VR-12 MCS, PCS, KOOS subscales, or Knee Society Score between groups. Patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) was achieved in 80% (90 of 112) for KOOS ADL in the noLFPOA group and 82% (36 of 44) in the LFPOA group (P = .68). PASS was achieved in 82% (92 of 112) for KOOS Sport in the noLFPOA group and 82% (36/44) in the LFPOA group (P = .87). CONCLUSION: At a mean of 10 years, patients who had LFPOA had equivalent survivorship and functional outcomes to patients who did not have LFPOA. These long-term results suggest that asymptomatic grade 3 or 4 LFPOA is not a contraindication to medial UKA.

BACKGROUND: Return to sport is essential information when an athlete contemplates surgical intervention. Young athletes, <30 years of age, may undergo complex cartilage procedures or femoral/tibial osteotomies to successfully treat single-compartment knee osteoarthritis. Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) may offer an attractive alternative option to middle-aged/older athletes with timely return to the same sport without a lengthy rehabilitation. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine if athletes are able to return to the same level of vigorous and moderate sports after fixed-bearing intramedullary nonrobotic UKA and the specific sports activities that these athletes continued to participate in at a minimum of 5 years. We hypothesized that UKA in the appropriately selected middle-aged/older athlete would yield high return to sport after UKA with high patient satisfaction. We also hypothesized that UKA would allow athletes to return to their sports of choice. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We identified 245 patients who underwent a UKA by a single surgeon between 2003 and 2017. Athletes were included if they participated in vigorous or moderate sports, as defined by the American College of Sports Medicine, and had minimum 5-year follow-up. The primary outcome was return to vigorous or moderate sports after UKA. Secondary outcomes included the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Activities of Daily Living score, KOOS Sport and Recreation score, Lysholm score, Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) analysis, and radiographic analysis. RESULTS: An overall 169 athletes met the inclusion criteria and were evaluated for return to sports. A total of 98% (165/169) returned to vigorous or moderate sports participation. The mean ± SD time to return to sport was 5.2 ± 2.3 months in the 39- to 50-year-old cohort, 5.8 ± 3.2 months in athletes aged 51 to 64 years, and 5.2 ± 3.0 months in athletes aged ≥65 years. A total of 143 athletes had minimum 5-year clinical and radiographic follow-up (mean, 10 years; range, 5-19 years). Maintenance of vigorous and moderate sport was seen in 99% (142/143) of athletes at a mean 10 years. In athletes who participated in vigorous sports, the mean Lysholm score was 85 ± 17, and 83% reached the PASS for KOOS Sport and Recreation. Radiographic analysis revealed no evidence of implant loosening (ie, subsidence, radiolucency) or osteolysis, and limb alignment and posterior slope of the implant were within normal limits. CONCLUSION: Athletes returned to sport at a mean 5 months after UKA implantation, with 98% (165/169) participating in vigorous or moderate sports. UKA is recommended as an alternative procedure in middle-aged and older athletes with single-compartment osteoarthritis who are contemplating a return to vigorous or moderate sport.

PURPOSE: To evaluate symptom duration and its relationship to patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and survivorship after hip arthroscopy in adolescents. METHODS: Patients ≤18 at time of primary hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) between January 2011 and September 2018 were included. Exclusion criteria consisted of history of previous ipsilateral hip surgery, presence of osteoarthritis or dysplasia on preoperative radiographs, previous hip fracture, or history of slipped capital femoral epiphysis or Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Minimum 2-year PROs (modified Harris Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score [HOS]-Activities of Daily Living, HOS-Sport Scale, Short Forms 12 [SF-12]), minimum clinically significant difference (MCID) and patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) rates, and revision surgery rates were compared based on symptom duration. RESULTS: Two-year minimal follow-up was obtained for 111 patients (134 hips) (80%), including 74 females and 37 males with a mean age of 16.4 ± 1.1 (range 13.0-18.0). The mean symptom duration was 17.2 ± 15.2 months (range 43 days to 6.0 years). Ten patients (11 hips), 6 females (7 hips) and 4 males, required revision surgery at an average of 2.3 ± 1.0 years (range 0.9-4.3 years). At a mean follow-up of 4.8 ± 2.2 years (range 2-10 years), there were statistically significant improvements in all PROs (P < .05 for all). Symptom duration showed no significant correlation to post-operative scores (correlation coefficient range -0.162 to -0.078, P > .05 for all). Symptom duration ≤12 months versus >12 months or as a continuous variable was not a predictor for requiring revision surgery or achieving MCID/PASS (95% confidence interval crosses 1 for all). CONCLUSIONS: In an adolescent cohort of symptomatic FAI patients who underwent hip arthroscopy, there is no difference in PRO measures when analyzing symptom duration by arbitrary time intervals or as a continuous variable. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case series.

BACKGROUND: The presence of adhesions is a common source of pain and dysfunction after hip arthroscopic surgery and an indication for revision surgery. The placement of a capsular spacer in the capsulolabral recess after lysis of adhesions has been developed to treat and prevent the recurrence of adhesions. PURPOSE: To evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and survivorship at a minimum of 2 years after revision hip arthroscopic surgery with capsular spacer placement for capsular adhesions. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: Between January 2013 and June 2018, a total of 95 patients (99 hips) aged ≥18 years underwent revision hip arthroscopic surgery for the treatment of capsular adhesions with the placement of a capsular spacer. Overall, 53 patients (56 hips) met the inclusion criteria and had a minimum 2-year follow-up, forming the cohort of this study. Exclusion criteria included confounding metabolic bone diseases (eg, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, Marfan syndrome), labral deficiency, or advanced osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade 2 or 3). Preoperative and postoperative outcome scores (modified Harris Hip Score [mHHS], Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living [HOS-ADL], Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale [HOS-SSS], 12-Item Short Form Health Survey [SF-12], and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index [WOMAC]) were collected and compared in addition to the revision rate, conversion to total hip arthroplasty, and patient satisfaction. RESULTS: The mean age of the cohort was 32 ± 11 years, with 32 female hips (57%) and a median number of previous hip arthroscopic procedures of 1 (range, 1-5). The arthroplasty- and revision-free survivorship rate at 2 years was 91%. Overall, 5 patients (6 hips; 11%) underwent revision surgery at a mean of 2.4 ± 1.4 years after capsular spacer placement, with symptomatic capsular defects being the most common finding. There were 4 patients (7%) who converted to total hip arthroplasty. For hips not requiring subsequent surgery (n = 46), there was a significant improvement in outcome scores except for the SF-12 Mental Component Summary, with rates of achieving the minimal clinically important difference of 70%, 70%, and 65% for the mHHS, HOS-ADL, and HOS-SSS, respectively. CONCLUSION: Capsular spacers, as part of a systematic approach including lysis of adhesions with early and consistent postoperative physical therapy including circumduction exercises, resulted in improved PROs as well as high arthroplasty- and revision-free survivorship (91%) at a minimum 2-year follow-up. Capsular spacers should be considered in revision hip arthroscopic procedures when an adequate labral volume remains but adhesions continue to be a concern.

BACKGROUND: The optimal alignment strategy in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is debated. Recent studies have suggested that kinematic alignment may lead to improved biomechanics and outcomes. The aim of the present study was to determine if pre-arthritic/kinematic alignment of knees would result in sustained long-term restoration of function, without conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA), following non-robotically assisted, fixed-bearing medial UKA. METHODS: A total of 236 UKAs were performed from 2000 to 2015. Of these, a total of 150 medial UKAs met the inclusion criteria and were included in the study. There were 76 UKAs performed in female patients. The mean age was 65 ± 10 years and the mean body mass index was 28.6 ± 5 kg/m2. Patients with ≥15° of varus alignment preoperatively were excluded. Varus deformity was evaluated with use of the hip-knee-ankle angle (HKAA). Pre-arthritic/kinematic alignment was estimated with use of an arithmetic HKAA (aHKA, calculated as the medial proximal tibial angle minus the lateral distal femoral angle). We defined pre-arthritic/kinematic alignment as a postoperative HKAA within 3° of the aHKA. The primary outcome measures were the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Activities of Daily Living and Sport subscales, including the percentage of patients who met the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) for these measures. Failure was defined as conversion to TKA. RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 10 years (range, 4 to 20 years), with a mean survival time estimate of 18.3 years (95% confidence interval [CI], 17.8 to 18.8). The rate of conversion to TKA was 3% (5 of 150 UKAs). Postoperatively, 127 (85%) of 150 knees were pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned, and 23 knees (15%) were not. Patients with compared to those without pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned knees had significantly longer mean survival (18.6 years; 95% CI, 18.2 to 19) compared with 15.4 years; 95% CI, 13.4 to 17.5, respectively; p = 0.008) and higher KOOS Activities of Daily Living (92 compared with 74; p < 0.001) and Sport subscale scores (74 compared with 36; p < 0.001). A greater proportion of knees in the pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned cohort met the PASS for the KOOS Activities of Daily Living (85%, 106 of 125 knees) and Sport subscales (109 of 125, 87%) compared with the non-pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned cohort (28% and 57%, respectively; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned knees in this non-robotically assisted fixed-bearing medial UKA cohort had superior outcomes, including the KOOS Activities of Daily Living and Sport subscales and achievement of the PASS for these measures, compared with non-pre-arthritic/kinematically aligned at an average of 10 years after UKA. Knees that fell within 3° of a simple aHKA measurement on a 3-foot (1-m)-long standing radiograph had greater longevity and return to activities. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

BACKGROUND: Lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is an excellent option to alleviate disability and restore function in patients with lateral compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA). The purpose of the present study was to determine the survivorship and long-term outcomes in both younger/middle-aged and older patients with lateral compartment OA following non-robotically-assisted, fixed-bearing lateral UKA and to determine if an acceptable symptom state can be achieved. METHODS: All patients were managed with fixed-bearing lateral UKA by a single surgeon utilizing a lateral parapatellar approach without robotic assistance. The primary outcome variables were the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and Sport subscale scores. In addition, the other KOOS subscores, the Lysholm score, the achievement of the Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS), and the Veterans RAND (VR-12) Physical Component Summary score (PCS) and Mental Component Summary score (MCS) were collected. Failure was defined as conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients were divided into 2 cohorts: younger/middle-aged patients (<60 years of age) and older patients (≥60 years of age). RESULTS: A cohort of 256 patients underwent medial (n = 193) or lateral (n = 63) UKA. Sixty-one patients met the inclusion criteria. At mean of 10 years (range, 4 to 17 years) of follow-up, there were no significant differences between the groups in terms of any patient-reported outcome measures (p > 0.05). The percentage of patients in whom PASS was achieved on the KOOS ADL and Sport subscores was 82% and 88%, respectively, in the younger cohort and 80% and 80%, respectively, in the older cohort. The mean survival estimate of the prothesis was 15.3 years (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.5 to 16.2 years) for the entire cohort. The estimated rate of implant survival in the younger cohort was 100% at 5 and 10 years, and the estimated rate of implant survival in the older cohort was 98% at 5 years and 96% at 10 years. CONCLUSIONS: Lateral fixed-bearing, non-robotic UKA for the treatment of isolated lateral compartment OA resulted in >80% of patients reaching an acceptable symptom state in terms of both activities of daily living and sporting activities. UKA provides an excellent option that provides longevity with high PASS rates and return to activities with a low risk of complications and failure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level III .

BACKGROUND: Hip arthroscopy has been shown to be an effective treatment for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in high-level athletes; however, limited outcome and return-to-play data exist for hip arthroscopy in skiers and snowboarders. PURPOSES: To determine the return-to-sports rate of elite skiers and snowboarders who have undergone hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI and to assess hip-related outcomes at a minimum 2-year follow-up. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: Elite skiers and snowboarders who underwent hip arthroscopy for the treatment of FAI between 2005 and 2018 were identified via a retrospective review of prospectively collected data. Data were obtained from fis-ski.org, usskiandsnowboard.org, xgames.com, and wikipedia.org, including information on each player's career length, participation on a national team, and time between surgery and first competition after surgery. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were prospectively collected preoperatively and at minimum 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS: In total, 26 elite skiers and snowboarders (34 hips) were included. The mean ± standard deviation age at surgery was 24.5 ± 6.7 years (range, 18.7-46.8 years). A total of 85% (22/26) returned to elite-level competition at 8.9 months (range, 2.9-23.7 months) with an average career length of 3.6 ± 2.7 years after surgery. Four athletes (5 hips) required revision arthroscopy, with adhesions being the most frequent indication. At a mean follow-up of 7.7 ± 3.2 years, significant improvement in PROs (P < .05) was demonstrated for the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living (from 76 ± 20 to 95 ± 6), HOS-Sport Specific Subscale (from 63 ± 28 to 92 ± 14), modified Harris Hip Score (from 70 ± 19 to 89 ± 12), and 12-Item Short Form Health Survey Physical Component Summary (from 45 ± 11 to 54 ± 8). Patient satisfaction had a mean of 8 ± 2 (range, 1-10) and median of 10. CONCLUSION: The return-to-competition rate in elite skiers and snowboarders after hip arthroscopy for FAI was 85% at an average of 8.9 months and with a career length of 3.6 years after surgery. Significant improvement in PROs was demonstrated for the HOS-Activities of Daily Living, HOS-Sport Specific Subscale, modified Harris Hip Score, and 12-Item Short Form Health Survey Physical Component Summary, with a median patient satisfaction score of 10. These findings support hip arthroscopy as an effective procedure for the treatment of FAI in elite skiers and snowboarders with symptomatic activity-limiting hip pain, allowing them to return to their previous levels of competition at a high rate.

BACKGROUND: The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was developed to document outcomes from knee injury, including the impact of osteoarthritis on knee function. The purpose of this study is to determine the reliability and validity of the KOOS subscales for evaluating outcomes following unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). METHODS: KOOS Pain, Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Sport, Symptoms, and Quality of Life (QoL) scores collected from 172 patients who underwent UKA were used in the analysis. KOOS subscales were tested for reliability and validity of scores through a Rasch model analysis. RESULTS: KOOS Sport, KOOS ADL, and KOOS QoL had good evidence of reliability with acceptable person reliability, person separation, and item reliability. For overall scale functioning, KOOS Pain, Symptoms, and ADL all had 1 question that did not have an acceptable value for infit or outfit mean square value. Questions in KOOS Sport and QoL all had acceptable values. There was a positive, linear relationship between the Short-Form 12 Physical Component Summary and the KOOS subscales which indicated good evidence of convergent validity. These associations were also seen when the cohort was separated in medial and lateral UKA. CONCLUSION: Two of the 5 KOOS subscales (KOOS Sport and KOOS QoL) were considered adequate in measuring outcomes, as well as reliability. The KOOS ADL had borderline values; however, it had adequate infit and outfit values. The KOOS Pain and Symptom score performed poorly in this analysis. For documenting outcomes following UKA, this study supports the use of KOOS ADL, Sport, and QoL.

BACKGROUND: Labral augmentation has emerged as an essential procedure to address a deficient or irreparable labrum while preserving native labral tissue and restoring the hip suction seal mechanism. PURPOSE: To evaluate midterm outcomes of arthroscopic hip labral augmentation for labral insufficiency after previous hip arthroscopy. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: Patients were identified from a prospectively collected database who underwent arthroscopic hip labral augmentation between January 2011 and January 2017 with a minimum 3-year follow-up. Pre- and postoperative patient-reported outcome scores were compared and included the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey physical and mental component summaries, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Hip Outcome Score (HOS) (Activities of Daily Living [ADL] and Sport). Postoperative Tegner Activity Scale and patient satisfaction (1-10) scores were also evaluated. The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) between the preoperative and minimum 3-year follow-up scores were calculated. RESULTS: A total of 88 patients (39 men, 49 women) underwent revision hip arthroscopy with labral augmentation. The average age was 32.8 ± 11 years. Of these, 77 patients (88%) were available for the minimum 3-year follow-up. The survivorship (absence of conversion to total hip arthroplasty) at 3 years and 5 years was 93% at both time points, with a mean survival time of 8.5 years (95% CI, 8.0-8.9). Eleven patients (14%) required revision arthroscopic surgery for continued pain. Revisions occurred at a mean of 2.6 ± 1.4 years after augmentation. The mean follow-up was 5.2 ± 1.2 years (range, 3-9 years). For patients not requiring subsequent surgery (n = 61), all patient-reported outcome measures significantly improved, which included a 20-point increase in HOS-ADL (MCID, 82%; PASS, 72%) and mHHS (MCID, 78%; PASS, 70%). The median postoperative Tegner score was 4 (range, 1-10). The median postoperative patient satisfaction score was 9 out of 10 (range, 1-10). CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic hip labral augmentation is a successful treatment option for patients with labral insufficiency after previous hip arthroscopy, demonstrating improved patient-reported outcomes and survivorship of 93% at 3 years and 5 years. This technique provides a valuable labral preservation option when addressing hip labral pathology when viable native labral tissue remains.

ABSTRACT: The most common form of shoulder instability involves the anterior glenohumeral joint. Often it is associated with labral and bony injuries with subsequent recurrent instability. To determine optimal management, clinicians should perform a detailed history and physical examination, including appropriate diagnostic imaging to assess for concomitant humeral and glenoid bony deficiencies and other soft-tissue pathologies. Early surgical intervention may reduce risk of recurrence, particularly in young, active athletes. This article highlights the relevant anatomy, pathoanatomy, diagnostic examination including radiologic imaging, management, and prevention of complications for anterior shoulder instability. Minimizing recurrence is key to restoring function for patients to safely return to recreational and sporting activities, and to perform activities of daily living.

BACKGROUND: The role of hip arthroscopy in the treatment of patients with borderline hip dysplasia is controversial and evolving. PURPOSE: To evaluate outcomes at a minimum 10-year follow-up in patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement in a hip with borderline dysplasia. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: All hips that underwent labral repair between June 2006 and March 2009 for femoroacetabular impingement with borderline dysplasia were included if they had a lateral center-edge angle of 20° to 25°, had primary hip arthroscopy for the diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement, and were aged 18 to 70 years. Patients were excluded if they had previous hip surgery, avascular necrosis, or fracture. Kaplan-Meier survivorship was performed, with survivorship defined as avoidance of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). RESULTS: A total of 45 patients met the inclusion criteria, and 38 were contacted at a minimum 10 years postoperatively (84%; mean ± SD, 12 ± 1.3 years). There were 23 women and 15 men with an average age of 41 ± 9.6 years (range, 25-69). Twenty patients were ≥40 years of age. In this patient cohort, survivorship was 87% at 5 years and 79% at 10 years for conversion to THA. Of the 38 patients included, 9 were converted to THA (24%), and 3 required revision hip arthroscopy (7%). Patient age, Tönnis grade, microfracture of cartilage lesions, and Tönnis angle >15° were associated with conversion to THA. No statistically significant differences were found between those who underwent conversion to THA and those who did not regarding lateral center-edge angle, Sharp angle, or alpha angle. Significant improvements were seen at follow-up of 12 years (range, 10-13) for the modified Harris Hip Score (58 to 83; P = .002), Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (70 to 87; P = .003), Hip Outcome Score-Sport (47 to 76; P = .004), and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (31 to 10; P = .001). At follow-up, >80% maintained the minimal clinically important difference for the Hip Outcome Score (Activities of Daily Living and Sport) with no differences between patients aged <40 and ≥40 years. CONCLUSION: Risk factors for conversion to THA after hip arthroscopy in the borderline dysplastic hip included older age, higher Tönnis grades, grade 4 chondral lesions that were microfractures, and Tönnis angle >15°. In those patients who did not convert to THA, improvement in outcome measures was seen at 10 years. Careful patient selection is critical to the success of this procedure.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to determine if there is a difference in the percentage of patients who reach Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) when comparing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient and ACL-intact knees following fixed-bearing medial and lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). METHODS: A consecutive series of 215 knees that underwent UKA (medial = 158, lateral = 57) were included in the study. The Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score functional score [KOOS activities of daily living (ADL)] and KOOS Sport were used as the primary outcome variables. A KOOS ADL PASS of 87.5 and KOOS Sport PASS of 43.8 were previously described for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Failure was defined as conversion to TKA. RESULTS: There were 157 in the ACL-intact group and 58 in the ACL-deficient group. Conversion to TKA was 3.7%. The failure rate in the ACL-deficient group was 5% (3/58) and 3% (5/157) in the ACL-intact group (P = .447). The mean survival for the entire group was 18.1 years (95% confidence interval 17.6-18.6). At 10 years, the survival was 94.3% (standard error = 0.028) in the ACL-deficient group and 97.6% (standard error = 0.014) in the ACL-intact group. At a mean 10 ± 3.5 years, with 93% follow-up, 83% in the ACL-deficient group and 80% in the ACL-intact group reached PASS for KOOS ADL (P = .218). For KOOS Sport, 85% of the ACL-deficient group compared to 81% in the ACL-intact group (P = .374) reached PASS. CONCLUSION: The ACL-deficient cohort results were not significantly different compared to ACL-intact knees in both medial and lateral compartment UKA. Fixed-bearing medial and lateral UKA resulted in low failure rate and excellent long-term outcomes.

PURPOSE: To describe patient outcomes 3 to 5 years after arthroscopic hip capsule reconstruction. METHODS: Between January 2007 and December 2016, patients aged 18 to 50 years who underwent arthroscopic hip capsular reconstruction using an Iliotibial band allograft by the senior author and had minimum of 3-year follow-up were identified. Patients were excluded if they had previous open hip surgery, advanced osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade >2), significant acetabular dysplasia (lateral center edge angle <20°), avascular necrosis, or Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Outcome scores including the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living scale, modified Harris Hip Score, HOS-Sports scale, SF-12, and Western Ontario & McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index were compared in addition to failure rate, revision rate, and patient satisfaction rate with the outcome (range, 1-10). All patients were assessed by the senior author pre- and postoperatively. RESULTS: Thirty-nine patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean age of the cohort was 32 ± 10 years, with 6 male and 33 female patients. The average number of previous hip arthroscopy surgeries was 2 ± 1. Six patients (15%) converted to total hip arthroplasty at an average of 2.1 years (range 7 months to 6 years) following capsular reconstruction. Four patients required revision hip arthroscopy after the arthroscopic capsular reconstruction. All arthroscopic revisions occurred in female patients with the primary intraoperative finding of capsulolabral adhesions at the time of revision. At mean follow-up of 4.3 years (range 3-6.8 years), the 29 patients who did not require subsequent surgery had significant improvements from preoperatively to postoperatively in HOS-Activities of Daily Living and HOS-Sport with 90% reaching minimal clinically important difference. All other scores showed significant improvement. Survival for patients not requiring total hip arthroplasty was 86% at 3 years, with a mean survival of 5.7 years (95% confidence interval 4.97-6.4). CONCLUSIONS: Arthroscopic hip capsular reconstruction with iliotibial band allograft is a successful treatment option for patients with symptomatic capsular defects, demonstrating improved patient-reported outcomes maintained at mean follow-up time of 4 years. This technique offers restoration of the anatomic structure and function of the capsular ligaments to improve pain and instability. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, case series.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether radiographic parameters, intraoperative findings, patient-reported outcome measures, or intraoperative interventions that were performed differentiate those patients with >2 mm of joint space who convert under two years to total hip arthroplasty (THA) after undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) when compared to those converting after 2 years. METHODS: Included in this study were patients who underwent conversion to THA within 2 years of primary hip arthroscopy from a prospectively collected patient registry from 2007 to 2017. Patients who underwent early conversions to arthroplasty were matched 1:1 with patients who converted after 2 years, based upon age and gender. Preoperative outcome scores were collected, including Short Form-12, modified Harris Hip Score, and Hip Outcome Score. Additionally, variables from the preoperative radiographic evaluation, surgical findings, and procedures performed were also compared. RESULTS: Forty-nine patients were included in the early conversion group and were matched with 49 patients in the later conversion group. Patients with lateral center edge angles of less than 25° were more likely to be in the early failure group [OR: 3.9; 95% CI: 1.01 to 15]. Patients with unipolar chondral defects on either the femoral (P = .128) or acetabular side (P = .656) were not at increased odds for early conversion compared to later conversion; however, those with bipolar chondral lesions at the time of surgery had increased odds of early conversions [OR: 3.3; 95% CI: 1.4 to 8] (P = .01). Neither surgical treatment nor preoperative patient-reported outcome measures were associated with early conversion. CONCLUSIONS: In patient with >2 mm of joint space, lateral center edge angles of less than 25° and those with bipolar articular cartilage lesions seen at the time of hip arthroscopy are at increased risk for conversion to total hip arthroplasty within two years. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparison study.
