RESUMO
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is a common cause of hip and groin pain in young individuals. FAI syndrome is a triad of signs, symptoms, and imaging findings. Necessary but not sufficient for the diagnosis of FAI syndrome is the presence of cam and/or pincer morphology of the hip. However, pathological thresholds for cam and pincer morphologies are not well-established. Management of FAI syndrome is typically through either physiotherapist-led therapy or surgical intervention. Physiotherapist-led management involves exercises aimed to optimise movement patterns of the hip and pelvis to prevent impingement from occurring, activity modification and analgesia, whereas surgical management involves arthroscopic resection of the cam/pincer morphology and treatment of concomitant soft tissue pathologies such as labral tears, cartilage lesions or ligamentum teres tears. Careful consideration of intervention is required given that FAI syndrome may predispose those affected to developing future osteoarthritis of the hip. In most clinical trials, hip arthroscopy has been found to provide greater improvement in patient-reported outcomes in the short-term compared to physiotherapy, however it is unknown whether this is sustained in the long-term or affects the future development of hip osteoarthritis.

PURPOSE: The aim of this review is to appraise the current evidence on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of os acetabuli. METHODS: A scoping review was conducted according to the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines. A systematic search was performed on Medline (PubMed), Embase and Cochrane Library. Inclusion criteria comprised observational and interventional studies and review articles published in the English language that focused on patients with os acetabuli according to the PRISMA extension of scoping reviews checklist using the terms 'Os Acetabuli' or 'os acetabula' or 'acetabular ossicles'. A narrative synthesis of results was undertaken, and the included articles were divided into (i) definition, (ii) aetiology, (iii) diagnosis and imaging and (iv) management of os acetabuli. RESULTS: 107 articles were screened, with 22 meeting the eligibility criteria. A total of 8836 patients were considered, of which 604 had os acetabuli. The mean age was 32.8 years. The prevalence of os acetabuli ranged from 3.4 to 7.7%, with a higher prevalence in males compared to females. True os acetabuli was defined as an unfused secondary ossification centre along the acetabular rim. The aetiology of os acetabuli is thought to be secondary to acetabular dysplasia and/or femoroacetabular impingement. Standard of care for management of symptomatic os acetabuli is considered to be arthroscopic excision unless the excision results in acetabular undercoverage and/or instability, in which case, fixation is recommended. CONCLUSIONS: Successful management of os acetabuli depends on understanding the pathology and treating the underlying cause rather than treating the os acetabuli in isolation. Future work needs to focus on establishing clear diagnostic criteria, consensus on definition and an evidence-based treatment algorithm.

PURPOSE: To determine the respective percent thresholds for achieving the maximal outcome improvement (MOI) for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), the Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (HOS-SSS), the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, and the International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12) that were associated with satisfaction following revision hip arthroscopy, and to identify predictors for achieving the MOI. METHODS: An anchor question was provided to patients who underwent revision hip arthroscopy between April 2017 and July 2020. Patients were included for the final analysis if they answered the anchor question and had minimum 2-year follow-up. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to determine the thresholds for the percentage of the MOI predictive of satisfaction. A P-value of < .05 was considered significant. RESULTS: In total, 318 patients underwent revision hip arthroscopy. Of those patients, 292 (91.8%) had minimum 2-year follow-up. Of this cohort, 68 answered the anchor question, with 49 (72.1%) female and 19 (27.9%) male patients. The mean age, and body mass index time were 32.9 ± 13 years and 25.4 ± 5.1, respectively. It was determined that 42.1%, 50%, 48.1%, 50%, and 50% of MOI were the thresholds for maximal predictability of satisfaction for mHHS, NAHS, HOS-SS, VAS for pain, and the iHOT-12, respectively. The presence of unaddressed subspine impingement was a significant predictor for achieving the MOI threshold for the VAS (odds ratio 1.40; 95% confidence interval 1.00-1.95; P = 0.0273). CONCLUSIONS: Following revision hip arthroscopy, the percent thresholds for achieving the MOI at a minimum 2-year follow-up for the mHHS, NAHS, HOS-SS, VAS for pain, and iHOT-12 were 42.1%, 50%, 48.1%, 50%, and 50.9%, respectively. Addressing residual subspine impingement was identified as significant positive predictor for achieving the MOI. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case-series.

Hip pain is a common complaint in adolescents. There are several causes for hip pain in this population, with dysplasia and impingement being the most common; however, other conditions such as extra-articular impingement, torsional disorders, labral tears, and osteochondral lesions also require consideration. Many of these conditions are related to underlying anatomic abnormalities and increased activity in this age group. An understanding of the common pathologies of the adolescent hip is integral to the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of these patients.

BACKGROUND: The Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS) used to evaluate the hip in younger patients is a self-administered questionnaire with 20 items in four sections: pain, symptoms, function, and activities. Although used in France, no transcultural version had been validated. The objective of this study was to translate the NAHS into French then assess the validity, reliability, and sensitivity to change of the French-language version (NAHS-Fr) in younger patients with hip conditions other than osteoarthritis. HYPOTHESIS: The NAHS-Fr demonstrates good validity and reliability when used in younger French-speaking patients with hip pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We conducted a prospective observational study in 105 patients (62 males and 43 females) scheduled for surgery on one or both hips (113 hips in total) to treat cam-type femoro-acetabular impingement or labral lesions. Before and 6 months after surgery, each patient completed the NAHS-Fr and Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Statistical tests were done to evaluate validity, reliability, and sensitivity to change, as recommended by the Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN). RESULTS: The response rate was 100%, confirming that the NAHS-Fr was easy to use. The NAHS-Fr was both valid and reliable. No ceiling or floor effect was detected for the total NAHS-Fr score. All items had Cronbach alpha coefficients greater than 0.8, indicating good internal consistency. External consistency between the NAHS-Fr and WOMAC was negative (-0.676) due to inversely proportional score indexing. Before surgery, the NAHS-Fr and WOMAC scores were strongly and significantly correlated (p<0.0001). The effect size was greater than 0.8, indicating good sensitivity to the change induced by surgery. DISCUSSION: These results confirm the study hypothesis: the NAHS-Fr has the same good psychometric characteristics as does the original version and versions in other languages. The NAHS-Fr is useful for evaluating younger patients with non-osteoarthritic hip pain and can be used by French-speaking surgeons in everyday clinical practice. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, prospective observational non-comparative cohort study.

INTRODUCTION: There is limited information on sexual activity and functioning for patients with hip abnormalities, specifically femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral tears, and hip dysplasia, before and after surgical interventions. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this review was to synthesize the existing literature on sexual activity and functioning for patients with FAI, labral tears, and/or hip dysplasia before and after their respective surgeries. METHODS: We performed a rigorous, comprehensive search on multiple databases including PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Subject headings and a search string of key terms including Medical Subject Headings were used systematically to search these databases. The reference list was reviewed with an additional reviewer to reduce bias. RESULTS: A total of 726 articles were found during the search, which were narrowed down to 22 articles that included at least 1 hip abnormality in relation to sexual functioning, sexual pain, or sexual activity. FAI, labral tears, and hip dysplasia can affect sexual activity, functioning, and positioning, and corrective surgery generally improves these metrics. Surgery improved vulvodynia, clitorodynia, and scrotal pain symptoms for some patients, though arthroscopy resulted in some instances of temporary pudendal nerve dysfunction. CONCLUSION: This review may serve as an important resource for surgeons, healthcare providers, researchers, physical therapists, and patients to understand the relationship between the hips and sexual functioning, and to bridge the gaps among the disciplines of orthopedics, pelvic floor physiology, and sexual health. Hip anatomy impacts sexual activity, functioning, and positioning as well as vulvodynia and scrotal pain symptoms for some patients, and a comprehensive hip evaluation by a qualified hip specialist should be considered for patients with such complaints.

BACKGROUND: Hip arthroscopy is an effective treatment tool for athletes with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. However, long-term data are scarce. PURPOSE: To assess survivorship, minimum 10-year patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), and sports participation after primary hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome in athletes and to perform a propensity-matched comparison between patients undergoing labral debridement and labral repair. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Athletes who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome between February 2008 and December 2010 were eligible. Exclusion criteria were other ipsilateral hip condition, Tönnis grade ≥2, or no baseline PROMs. Survivorship was defined as no conversion to total hip arthroplasty. The Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS), minimal clinically important difference (MCID), maximum outcome improvement (MOI) satisfaction threshold, and sports participation were reported. A propensity-matched comparison between labral debridement and labral repair was performed. Two additional propensity-matched subanalyses were performed for capsular management and cartilage damage. RESULTS: In total, 189 hips (177 patients) were included. The mean ± SD follow-up was 127.2 ± 6.0 months. Survivorship was 85.7%. Significant improvement in all PROMs was reported (P < .001). A total of 46 athletes with labral repair were propensity matched to 46 athletes with labral debridement. This subanalysis demonstrated significant and comparable improvement in all PROMs at minimum 10-year follow-up (P < .001). For the labral repair group, the PASS achievement rates were 88.9% for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and 80% for the Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS); the MCID achievement rates were 80.6% for the mHHS and 84% for HOS-SSS; and for the MOI satisfaction threshold, rates were 77.8%, 80.6%, and 55.6% for the mHHS, Nonarthritic Hip Score, and visual analog scale, respectively. For the labral debridement group, the PASS achievement rates were 85.3% for the mHHS and 70.4% for the HOS-SSS; the MCID achievement rates were 81.8% for the mHHS and 74.1% for HOS-SSS; and for the MOI satisfaction threshold, rates were 72.7%, 81.8%, and 66.7% for the mHHS, Nonarthritic Hip Score, and visual analog scale. Total hip arthroplasty conversions occurred significantly sooner with labral debridement than labral repair (P = .048). Age was identified as a significant predictor of achieving the PASS. CONCLUSION: Primary hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome in athletes results in 85.7% survivorship and sustained PROM improvement at a minimum 10-year follow-up. A significant time delay to total hip arthroplasty conversion at 10-year follow-up was reported with labral repair over debridement, although this should be interpreted with caution, as the total number of conversions was small.

PURPOSE: Though an increasing number of adults older than 50 years are undergoing hip arthroscopy for treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome (FAIS), it is unclear how their timeline for functional outcome improvement compares to that of younger patients. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of age on time to achieving the Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID), Substantial Clinical Benefit (SCB), and Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) following primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS. METHODS: A retrospective comparative single-surgeon cohort study of primary hip arthroscopy patients with minimum 2-year follow-up was conducted. Age categories were 20-34 years, 35-49 years, and 50-75 years. All subjects completed the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) prior to surgery and at 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year follow-up. MCID and SCB cutoffs were defined as pre-to-postoperative increases in mHHS by ≥ 8.2 and ≥ 19.8, respectively. PASS cutoff was set at postoperative mHHS ≥ 74. Time to achievement of each milestone was compared using interval-censored survival analysis. The effect of age was adjusted for Body Mass Index (BMI), sex, and labral repair technique using an interval-censored proportional hazards model. RESULTS: Two hundred eighty-five patients were included in the analysis with 115 (40.4%) aged 20-34 years, 92 (32.3%) aged 35-49 years, and 78 (27.4%) aged 50-75 years. There were no significant differences between groups in time to achievement for the MCID (n.s.) or SCB (n.s.). However, patients in the oldest group had significantly longer time to PASS than those in the youngest group, both in the unadjusted analysis (p = 0.02) and after adjusting for BMI, sex, and labral repair technique (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.48-0.96, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Achievement of the PASS, but not the MCID or SCB, is delayed among FAIS patients aged 50-75 years who undergo primary hip arthroscopy compared to those aged 20-34 years. Older FAIS patients should be counseled appropriately about their longer timeline to achieving hip function comparable to their younger counterparts. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

BACKGROUND: Although randomized controlled trials comparing hip arthroscopy with physical therapy for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome have emerged, no studies have investigated potential moderators or mediators of change in hip-related quality of life. PURPOSE: To explore potential moderators, mediators, and prognostic indicators of the effect of hip arthroscopy and physical therapy on change in 33-item international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33) score for FAI syndrome. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. METHODS: Overall, 99 participants were recruited from the clinics of orthopaedic surgeons and randomly allocated to treatment with hip arthroscopy or physical therapy. Change in iHOT-33 score from baseline to 12 months was the dependent outcome for analyses of moderators, mediators, and prognostic indicators. Variables investigated as potential moderators/prognostic indicators were demographic variables, symptom duration, alpha angle, lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), Hip Osteoarthritis MRI Scoring System (HOAMS) for selected magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features, and delayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage (dGEMRIC) score. Potential mediators investigated were change in chosen bony morphology measures, HOAMS, and dGEMRIC score from baseline to 12 months. For hip arthroscopy, intraoperative procedures performed (femoral ostectomy ± acetabular ostectomy ± labral repair ± ligamentum teres debridement) and quality of surgery graded by a blinded surgical review panel were investigated for potential association with iHOT-33 change. For physical therapy, fidelity to the physical therapy program was investigated for potential association with iHOT-33 change. RESULTS: A total of 81 participants were included in the final moderator/prognostic indicator analysis and 85 participants in the final mediator analysis after exclusion of those with missing data. No significant moderators or mediators of change in iHOT-33 score from baseline to 12 months were identified. Patients with smaller baseline LCEA (ß = -0.82; P = .034), access to private health care (ß = 12.91; P = .013), and worse baseline iHOT-33 score (ß = -0.48; P < .001) had greater iHOT-33 improvement from baseline to 12 months, irrespective of treatment allocation, and thus were prognostic indicators of treatment response. Unsatisfactory treatment fidelity was associated with worse treatment response (ß = -24.27; P = .013) for physical therapy. The quality of surgery and procedures performed were not associated with iHOT-33 change for hip arthroscopy (P = .460-.665 and P = .096-.824, respectively). CONCLUSION: No moderators or mediators of change in hip-related quality of life were identified for treatment of FAI syndrome with hip arthroscopy or physical therapy in these exploratory analyses. Patients who accessed the Australian private health care system, had smaller LCEAs, and had worse baseline iHOT-33 scores, experienced greater iHOT-33 improvement, irrespective of treatment allocation.

PURPOSE: To identify the objective criteria and guidelines utilized to determine if patients diagnosed with FAIS can safely return to sport following hip arthroscopy. METHODS: The electronic databases MEDLINE Ovid, EMBASE Ovid, and CINAHL were searched to identify eligible studies. Details of study design, sample size, primary diagnosis, and return to sport protocol, duration, and rate were collected by two reviewers, independently. RESULTS: Sixty-two studies were selected for full text review of which 14 were included in the final analysis. Of these, nine were clinical commentaries and five were retrospective cohort studies. Three types of rehabilitation guidelines are currently utilized postoperatively: 4-phase, 5-phase, and 6-phase protocols. Although all 14 studies recommend using various types of outcome measures to evaluate a patient's ability to return to sport, only eleven outlined the specific outcome criteria they must achieve to do so. The most utilized outcome measures are the hip outcome score, active and passive range of motion tests, gait analysis, single- and double-leg squat tests, and the Vail hip sports test. Criteria across all three types of protocols was variable, but they all evaluated the same international classification of disability and function constructs described by the World Health Organization: body function, body structure limitations, and activity capacity limitations. CONCLUSIONS: There is no consensus on the optimal methods of evaluating a patient's readiness to return to sport after undergoing hip arthroscopy, with most criteria focused on expert opinion. Performance-based return to sport outcome criteria is not clearly defined, and validated outcome measures are not being used for FAIS patients post hip arthroscopy. Lastly, well-conducted prospective cohort studies using validated outcome measures and objective definitions of return to sport are needed to consistently identify signs that are prognostic of safe return to sport.

PURPOSE: Hip microinstability has emerged as a contributor to young adult, non-arthritic hip pain. There is a paucity of objective clinical data to identify patients with hip microinstability and guide surgical treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of distractibility in patients with and without microinstability undergoing hip arthroscopy. METHODS: A single-surgeon series of hip arthroscopies were retrospectively reviewed from 2014-2020. All procedures were performed with paralysis on a fracture table with a perineal post where 1 turn of fine traction equates to 4 mm of axial traction. Diagnosis was recorded as isolated instability, instability plus femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and isolated FAI. Operative reports were reviewed to collect patient demographic data, number of turns of traction required for adequate distraction of the femoral head relative to the acetabulum (10 mm), and the presence of residual subluxation after initial traction was released. RESULTS: A total of 464 patients were identified, 26 (5.6%) with isolated microinstability, 183 (39.4%) with microinstability with FAI anatomy, and 255 (55.0%) with FAI. The concurrent diagnosis of microinstability was associated with decreased turns required to adequately distract the hip. Isolated microinstability patients required 6.9 turns (IQR 4.6-8.8) while those with instability plus FAI required 8.8 turns (IQR 6.5-11) and isolated FAI required 19.1 turns (IQR 15-22). Residual subluxation after removal of negative intra-articular pressure but before performing the hip arthroscopy was more commonly associated with instability, occurring in 84.6% of isolated instability and 86.9% of instability plus FAI as compared with 29.8% in the isolated FAI cohort. CONCLUSION: A diagnosis of hip microinstability, with or without features of FAI, is associated with decreased axial traction required to distract the hip. These data support the use of intra-operative ease of distraction as a method of identifying patients with hip microinstability. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.

The human pelvis represents a wonderful example of apparent idealistic simplicity overwhelmed by realistic complexity. Traditionally, the pelvis has been termed a "ring" linking the lower extremity to the spine via the sacroiliac joint. In essence, the pelvis is the lowest vertebral level-"the hip bone's connected to the spine bone." Thus, the law of parsimony seemingly applies in the diagnosis and management of both arthritic and nonarthritic hip and spine disorders in isolation or combination. However, an inverse Occam's razor is much more likely. The layered theory of hip disorders illustrates how a base osteochondral layer (femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, ischiofemoral impingement from either the lesser trochanter or greater trochanter, arthritis), a static inert soft-tissue layer (labrum, capsule, ligament), a dynamic soft-tissue layer (muscle, tendon), and a neurokinetic chain layer all interact and can lead to hundreds, if not thousands, of different combinations of primary and secondary symptom sources. Although correlation does not equal causation, intuitively and overly simplistically, a stiff painful hip can transfer stress across the pelvic ring to the spine, causing back pain. Alternatively, 2 separate symptom sources could be present at the same time. Biomechanical stress transfer can occur from flexion-based (e.g., femoroacetabular impingement syndrome) or extension-based (e.g., ischiofemoral impingement) problems. The diagnosis of hip-spine syndrome in patients becomes really complicated usually really fast, encompassing the hip joint, peritrochanteric space, deep gluteal space, pelvis and pelvic floor, sacroiliac joint, and lumbosacral spine-and don't forget mental health and the mind controls the musculotendinous system in these challenging, often frustrated, patients. Static imaging findings necessitate dynamic symptom correlation, especially via pertinent values including pelvic incidence; pelvic tilt; sacral slope; lumbar lordosis; femoral and acetabular version; cam, pincer, and dysplastic morphologies; and leg length. Judicious diagnostic injections can greatly assist in clinical symptom interpretation. Successful treatment requires consideration and management of the primary etiology and pertinent secondary downstream effects. When a patient's hip hurts, one should always look at the patient's back; when a patient's back hurts, one should always look at the patient's hip.

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.
Resumo Objetivo Correlacionar alterações radiográficas e lesões de estruturas intra-articulares do acetábulo com a intensidade da dor e a incapacidade de pacientes com diagnóstico de síndrome do impacto femoroacetabular. Métodos Realiou-se uma análise retrospectiva de dados pré-operatórios de 182 pacientes (190 quadris). Foram avaliadas variáveis clínicas como idade, sexo e prática de atividade física, e variáveis radiográficas, como ângulo de Wiberg e o ângulo alfa. Por meio do vídeo intraoperatório, foi avaliada a extensão das lesões condrais e labiais considerando-se o método clock-face, o grau de comprometimento articular pela classificação de Outerbridge, e a presença de lesão em onda. As variáveis foram analisadas por meio de regressão linear, tendo como variáveis dependentes a intensidade da dor, avaliada pela Escala Visual Analógica (EVA), e a incapacidade funcional, mensurada pelo Harris Hip Score modificado (HHSm). Resultados A média de idade dos pacientes foi de 38,5 ± 9,6 anos, a da intensidade da dor, 7,8 ± 1,6, e a do HHSm, 56,3 ± 12,7. No total, 61% da amostra apresentava Outerbridge III ou IV, e 12,6% apresentava lesão em onda. Observou-se correlação do sexo masculino (r = 0,497) com menor intensidade da dor, e correlação da idade (r = −0,27), do sexo masculino (r = 8,419) e da realização de atividade física com maior escore funcional no HHSm (r = 4,729). Conclusão Não houve correlação dos parâmetros radiográficos e artroscópicos deste estudo com a intensidade da dor e a incapacidade dos pacientes. O sexo masculino está relacionado com menor intensidade da dor, e maior capacidade funcional está relacionada com o sexo masculino, menor idade, e a prática de atividade física. Nível de Evidência IV.

BACKGROUND: Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) has gained vast importance in the last two decades. Multiple studies have shown that if untreated, early osteoarthritis of the hip joint may result. Hip arthroscopy is one of the fastest growing procedures in the orthopedic cosmos, having already replaced the majority of (mini) open techniques in FAIS surgery. However, with the recent remarkable increase in the volume of hip arthroscopies performed worldwide, the number of patients with persistent or recurrent symptoms after FAIS surgery is also growing. PATHOLOGY: Potential underlying pathologies are misresection of the bony deformity, insufficiency fracture of the femoral head neck junction or the femoral subchondral head itself (SIFFH), adhesions, failed chondrolabral or capsular treatment, septic arthritis, heterotopic ossification or a wrong indication in the case of osteoarthritis that is already too advanced. Most of these occur more often during the extensive learning curve for hip arthroscopy. DIAGNOSTICS: High-quality imaging plays a key role in determining the need for revision surgery vs. further conservative treatment. Therapeutical avenues are shown with the common goal of proper detection and correction of the underlying pathology to address unsatisfactory FAIS treatment outcomes and ensure long-term survival of the native hip joint.

BACKGROUND: Over the past several years there has been a marked increase in the number of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers having hip arthroscopy based on magnetic resonance arthrography diagnosis of hip labral tears and/or impingement. OBJECTIVES: To detail characteristics of soldiers who underwent hip arthroscopy and assess outcomes and rate of return to duty. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was conducted of all soldiers who underwent hip arthroscopy 2018 to 2020, and soldiers referred for hip arthroscopy during 2021. Demographic, medical, and military service data were collected from the computerized patient record. RESULTS: Our study comprised 117 soldiers (29% combatants, 24% females) who underwent hip arthroscopy, mean age 22 ± 3 years, range 18-42; 45% had physiotherapy before surgery; 31% were diagnosed during or within 3 months of having back pain and 20% had been referred for psychological assistance (not related to the hip pain); 15.4% had serious adverse events. The mean time to return to any duty (including clerical work) was 8.0 ± 0.6 months; 56% of the soldiers never returned to service and were discharged from the military. During the one-year follow-up, only 6% returned to their full pre-symptom activity. CONCLUSIONS: The short-term results of IDF soldiers who underwent hip arthroscopy during the study period were much inferior to those reported among athletes. The lack of specificity of the diagnostic tools (history, examination, and imaging) used to determine whether surgery for hip pain is likely to be beneficial in this population may be contributing to over-diagnosis and over-treatment.

PURPOSE: To analyze and compare the mid-term outcomes of hip arthroscopy for patients with and without labral degeneration from multiple orthopaedic centers. The purpose of this research is to develop an understanding of the impacts of labral degeneration on patient outcomes following arthroscopic treatment of labral tears. METHODS: A prospective multicenter hip arthroscopy registry was queried for primary surgeries from January 2014 to October 2017 with completed 2-year International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12) reports. Patients were placed into cohorts based on the presence or absence of labral degeneration noted intraoperatively during hip arthroscopy. Degeneration was defined as yellowing, ossification, or calcification present in at least 50% of the labrum. Differences in baseline variation between groups were assessed with a Wilcoxon rank-sum test or χ2 test. Two-year outcomes were assessed with iHOT-12. Multivariate logistic regression models were fitted while controlling for age, body mass index, sex, and preoperative iHOT-12 scores to identify significant predictors of achieving the clinically significant thresholds of minimal clinically important difference, substantial clinical benefit, and patient-acceptable symptom scale. RESULTS: In total, 735 patients met inclusion criteria, of whom 613 had complete outcomes information. Relative to the control group, the labral degeneration group was significantly older (mean age 44 ± 11 years vs 33 ± 12 years; P < .01). Both groups experienced statistically significant improvement in iHOT-12 scores from baseline to final follow-up (P < .001); however, patients with labral degeneration reported inferior 2-year iHOT-12 scores when compared with patients without degeneration (P < .001). In the logistic regression models, labral degeneration was a significant negative predictor of achieving iHOT-12 minimal clinically important difference (odds ratio [OR] 0.47; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.28-0.79), patient acceptable symptom state (OR 0.50; 95 CI 0.32-0.77), and substantial clinical benefit (OR 0.58; 95% CI 0.37-0.89). CONCLUSIONS: The results of our study conclude that patients with nondegenerative labral tissue at the time of repair have superior patient-reported outcomes at mid-term follow-up. The presence of labral degeneration was a negative predictor of achieving clinically significant thresholds after controlling for patient age, body mass index, sex, and baseline iHOT-12 scores. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, retrospective comparative prognostic trial.

BACKGROUND: Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a relevant cause of groin pain in adolescents. Athletes are particularly affected. OBJECTIVES: The article shall provide an evidence-based background for FAIS counseling and therapy in adolescents. MATERIAL AND METHODS: On the basis of the current literature, an overview of the prevalence and pathogenesis, evaluation and diagnostics, as well as the therapeutic recommendations for FAIS in adolescents was compiled. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: FAIS in adolescents primarily affects physically active patients. Certain sports favor the development of FAIS. Cam impingement, pincer impingement, and combined FAIS are the most common entities in this age group. Cam morphology occurs shortly before closure of the proximal femoral growth plate. In cam impingement, the slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) must be distinguished from the primary cam morphology. SCFE requires rapid surgical treatment with stabilization of the epiphysis, while primary cam impingement can be analyzed electively, and conservative treatment is first recommended. Damage to the labrum and cartilage is regularly observed. A systematic radiological evaluation using Xrays and MRI is mandatory in order to develop an adequate treatment plan. In adolescent patients with FAIS, a conservative attempt at therapy should always be made; if this is unsuccessful, surgical repair with hip arthroscopy is indicated. The postoperative results are very good in adolescents, with a rapid improvement in symptoms, few complications, and a high return-to-sport rate.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to search for changes in functional outcomes of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) between short and medium-term follow-up. Secondary aims included reporting rates of revision surgery and total hip arthroplasty (THA) at medium-term follow-up. HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesised that patients' functional outcomes would improve between short and medium-term follow-up. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Consecutive patients undergoing hip arthroscopy with a diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement with labral tears between February 2013 and June 2015 were included. Twelve item international hip outcome tool (iHOT-12) and EuroQol 5D-5L (EQ-5D) scores were collected preoperatively, at short-term and medium-term follow-up. Short-term scores were recorded at a minimum of one year postoperatively and medium-term scores at a minimum of five years postoperatively. Survivorship was assessed with Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS: Short-term outcome data (at median follow-up 1.6 year, Interquartile range [IQR] 1-2.5) was available for 70 of 87 patients (80.5%) and medium-term outcome data (at median follow-up of 6.5 years, IQR 6-7.1) was available for 68 patients (78.2%). Median age at the time of surgery was 31 years (IQR 25-37). The median iHOT-12 scores at short and medium-term follow-up were 72 (IQR 48.75-91.25) and 85.8 (IQR 66.7-96.7) respectively (p<0.001). Medium-term survivorship was 91.2%. Survivorship following labral repair was 94.2%, and 81.3% following labral debridement (p=0.09). DISCUSSION: Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI reported continued improvement in iHOT-12 scores between short and medium-term follow-up. Medium-term survivorship following FAI surgery may be greater when the labrum is repaired, although comparisons are limited by their differing indications. Conversion to THA was low with just 4 patients (4.6%) undergoing or being listed for THA at final follow-up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, Case series.
