RESUMEN
It is important to be knowledgeable about the latest information on the diagnosis and the evidence-based management of developmental hip dysplasia and dislocation from birth through adolescence. The focus should be on the effect of the problem; normal growth and development of the hip joint; and the pathoanatomy, natural history, and long-term outcomes of developmental dysplasia of the hip, hip subluxation, and dysplasia. Many controversies exist in the management of this complex spectrum of disorders.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies evaluating the outcomes of hip arthroscopy for patients with global acetabular overcoverage and focal superolateral acetabular overcoverage suffer from short-term follow-up and inconsistent radiographic criteria when defining these subpopulations of patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). PURPOSE: To evaluate the intermediate-term postoperative outcomes for patients with FAIS in the setting of global acetabular overcoverage, lateral acetabular overcoverage, and normal acetabular coverage. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS were enrolled in a prospective cohort study, and those with a minimum follow-up of 5 years were included in this analysis. Patients were grouped based on type of acetabular coverage: global overcoverage (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] ≥40°, with coxa profunda), lateral overcoverage (LCEA ≥40°, without coxa profunda), and no overcoverage (LCEA <40°). Functional outcomes (modified Harris Hip Score and Nonarthritic Hip Score) and failure of primary hip arthroscopy were compared between groups. RESULTS: In total, 94 patients (mean age, 41.9 ± 14.2 years) were included with a mean follow-up duration of 6.1 ± 0.9 years. Of these patients, 40.4% had no acetabular overcoverage, 36.2% had lateral overcoverage, and 23.4% had global overcoverage. There was no difference between groups with respect to percentage of patients who underwent reoperation for either revision arthroscopy or conversion to total hip arthroplasty (28.9% for the normal acetabular coverage group, 29.4% for the lateral overcoverage group, and 31.8% for the global overcoverage group; P = .971). Among patients for whom primary hip arthroscopy did not fail, there was no difference in 5-year functional outcomes between groups. Postoperative LCEA >40° (ß = -13.3; 95% CI, -24.1 to -2.6; P = .016), female sex (ß = -14.5; 95% CI, -22.7 to -6.2; P = .001), and higher body mass index (ß = -1.9; 95% CI, -2.8 to -1.0; P < .001) were associated with worse intermediate-term hip function in terms of modified Harris Hip Score. CONCLUSION: There was no difference in functional outcomes or rate of reoperation at a minimum of 5 years postoperatively between those with global acetabular overcoverage, those with regional lateral overcoverage, and those with normal acetabular coverage. Provided that an appropriate acetabuloplasty is performed, there is no evidence to suggest that global acetabular overcoverage portends a worse prognosis than other FAIS subtypes.

SUMMARY: This is a case of a 36-year-old female patient presenting with left forearm and wrist pain after a ground-level fall onto her outstretched left hand. Clinical and radiographic evaluation is consistent with a left distal radial shaft fracture with disruption of the distal radioulnar joint, known as a Galeazzi fracture. The purpose of this video is to review the appropriate management of Galeazzi fractures and demonstrate our treatment with this surgical approach.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Opioid misuse and diversion is a major concern, with a negative impact on both the individual and society. The objective of this study was to perform an evidence-based systematic review of the efficacy of perioperative analgesic regimens following otologic surgery. METHODS: Embase, Cochrane Library, and PubMed/MEDLINE databases (January 1, 1947 to June 30, 2018) were searched for studies investigating pain management in otologic surgeries. All studies were assessed for quality and bias using the Cochrane bias tool. Patient demographics, type of surgery, medication class, dose, administration characteristics, pain scores, and adverse events were reported. RESULTS: Twenty-three studies encompassing 1,842 patients met inclusion criteria. In 21.4% of studies, an overall reduction in pain scores was reported when the treatment group included more than one analgesic. Nausea and vomiting were the most common adverse events across all medication types (10.2%), with local anesthetic patients experiencing these side effects most frequently (38.0%). Perioperative acetaminophen was reported to have the fewest adverse drug reactions overall (6.1%), but did not reduce pain scores as much as other modalities, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or combination analgesics. CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence that combination analgesics, such as acetaminophen plus codeine, provide superior pain relief to monotherapy analgesics in the perioperative pain management of otologic surgeries. NSAIDs, α-agonists, and nerve blocks may also be viable single-therapy options. Further prospective randomized controlled trials into perioperative analgesia for patients undergoing otologic surgery may be helpful in establishing a definitive consensus.

Existing literature addresses the ethical considerations of global health work and how medical school curricula can help prepare students for them, but little has been written regarding an ethical approach to global psychiatry. In this paper we summarize prominent ethical issues that arise in global health psychiatry in order to provide a foundation for a framework in global health psychiatry. These issues include obtaining informed consent in the face of language barriers, diagnosing and treating for mental illnesses while navigating communities where such conditions are heavily stigmatized, and justifying the cessation of proving care to current patients for the sake of providing care to new patients abroad. To help prepare psychiatrists and students for work that engages these issues, we propose a multi-step process to assist the practicing global psychiatrist in recognizing ethical dilemmas and evaluating potential courses of action based on their respective ethical merits.
