RESUMO
Articular cartilage defects of the hip pose therapeutic challenges. Among patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, more than 20% may have partial- or full-thickness chondral damage, and patients with high-grade (International Cartilage Repair Society grade 3 or 4) damage who undergo arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome have higher rates of reoperation at 10-year follow-up. Arthroscopic and open techniques have been developed to translate cartilage restoration options initially developed in the knee for use in the hip. Arthroscopic options include chondroplasty, microfracture, biologic cartilage scaffolds, autologous chondrocyte implantation, and minced cartilage autograft (albeit more commonly in the acetabulum than the femoral head). Open techniques include autologous chondrocyte grafting, osteochondral autograft transfer (including mosaicplasty), osteochondral allograft transplantation, and arthroplasty. Open osteochondral allograft and autograft transplantation show improved patient-reported outcomes and forestall arthroplasty in young patients with high-grade cartilage defects of the femoral head. A recent review shows survivorship of 70% to 87.5% for allograft and 61.5% to 96% for autograft. At the same time, outcomes are not universally positive, particularly for patients with posttraumatic impaction injuries and high-grade osteonecrosis. Until further data better clarify the indications and contraindications, widespread adoption of open cartilage transplantation to the femoral head should be approached with caution, especially for older patients, in whom the gold standard of total hip arthroplasty has excellent survivorship at long-term follow-up.
RESUMO
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are critical tools in hip preservation research for evaluating the efficacy of current treatments, as well as identifying risk factors associated with suboptimal outcomes. These measures have been used for quality improvement, for monitoring of health plan performance, and even for reimbursement models. Over the past 2 decades, legacy hip outcome scores have been developed that are patient-centric and evaluate hip-specific function after surgery. There has been a recent trend in using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), a tool developed by the National Institutes of Health for evaluating PROMs, in the field of hip arthroscopy. However, on the basis of the evidence in the literature, it is unlikely that PROMIS is superior to legacy PROMs regarding evaluation of hip function, nor is it as responsive to quantifying meaningful changes in function that are important to patients. As such, clinicians and researchers alike should likely continue using legacy PROMs to evaluate patients' functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy while continuing to explore the clinical applications of other PROMIS domains.

In order to evaluate postoperative function and failure rates among younger patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty for humeral head avascular necrosis (AVN), data from patients < 40 years treated between December 2008 - January 2018 was retrospectively analyzed. Pain was assessed preoperatively and at final follow up using a visual analogue scale (VAS). The American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) standardized assessment, single assessment numeric evaluation (SANE) score, and patient satisfaction were assessed at final follow up, as well as surgical revision rates. In total, eight shoulders were included in the final analysis, with a follow up of 6.6 + 3.6 years. Analysis indicated a statistical improvement in VAS pain (p = 0.001), while comparison of postoperative function between surgical and non-surgical limbs did not demonstrate statistical differences in SANE or ASES averages (p > 0.05). At final follow up, 25% of patients expressed dissatisfaction; however, there were no cases of revision surgery. In conclusion, younger patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty for humeral head AVN experienced pain improvement and no revisions at short-to-mid-term follow up, but one-in-four indicated dissatisfaction. Level of evidence: IV, case series. (Journal of Surgical Orthopaedic Advances 32(2):118-121, 2023).

PURPOSE: To compare the accuracy of conventional fluoroscopy versus an intraoperative radiographic visualization tool in assisting a novice and experienced hip arthroscopist in comprehensive cam correction to a desired alpha angle (AA). METHODS: A cadaveric study was performed using 28 hemi-pelvises with cam-type deformity (AA > 55Ë) measured on anteroposterior, lateral, and Dunn-view radiographs. Two fellowship-trained hip arthroscopists each performed 14 arthroscopic femoroplasties. The specimens were randomly assigned: 14 of the procedures were performed by the experienced surgeon, with 7 using the automated radiographic visualization tool (Guided Femoroplasty) and 7 using routine fluoroscopy (Control). The same number of hips was assigned to the novice surgeon, completing 7 femoroplasties with and without the visualization tool. Each hip was imaged before and after femoroplasty in 6 different positions using intraoperative fluoroscopy to evaluate head-neck offset. Femoroplasty AAs were compared between groups with and without visualization tool use, as well as between surgeons. One-way analysis of variance analysis was performed to evaluate the consistency of cam resection. RESULTS: For the experienced hip arthroscopist, comparison of Guide Femoroplasty and Control groups resulted in similar accuracy when compared to the controls, with post-femoroplasty AA averages ranging from 41.4° ± 3.8Ë to 44.8° ± 2.8Ë (P = .511) and 40.2° ± 5.3Ë to 45.6° ± 2.2Ë (P = .225), respectively. For the novice hip arthroscopist, the Guided Femoroplasty group had higher accuracy, with post-femoroplasty AA averages ranging from 42.8° ± 2.6Ë to 46.1° ± 7.2Ë(P = .689) with and 39.8° ± 3.1Ë to 51.9° ± 8.1Ë (P = .001) without the visualization tool. Comparison of procedure time did not show any statistically significant difference between the use of the radiographic visualization tool and controls for either surgeon (P > .05 for all). CONCLUSIONS: Femoroplasty with and without the use of automated radiographic visualization tool results in accurate cam resection when used by both the experienced and novice surgeon. However, higher accuracy was observed when resecting to a desired AA performed by a novice surgeon using the visualization tool. Additionally, use of the visualization tool did not result in longer procedure times for either surgeon. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The impact of incomplete cam resections and over-resection on patient outcomes in the literature has led to the recent development of automated intraoperative radiographic visualization tools that allow for assistance of cam resection accuracy for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. This cadaveric study demonstrates that femoroplasty with the use of an intraoperative automated radiographic visualization tool may result in more accurate cam resections.

PURPOSE: To evaluate functional outcomes and survivorship in patients at 1 year after undergoing arthroscopic microfracture augmented with hyaline allograft for symptomatic chondral defects of the hip. METHODS: Consecutive patients with and without prior hip procedures presenting with Outerbridge grade IV chondral lesion of the acetabulum or femoral head were prospectively followed. Patients underwent hip microfracture augmented with hyaline allograft suspended in autologous platelet-rich plasma between October 2016 and April 2018. Extent of cartilage degeneration was quantified using the chondromalacia severity index (CMI). Patient functional scores, including Tegner, Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS) were collected preoperatively and at minimum 1-year postoperatively. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was analyzed. Statistical significance was established at P < .05. Pearson's coefficient analysis was performed to identify preoperative variables correlated with clinical outcomes. RESULTS: Fifty-seven patients (86.4%) had minimum 1-year follow-up and were included in the final analysis, with a mean age and body mass index (BMI) of 38.3 ± 9.1 years and 27.7 ± 4.9 kg/m2, respectively. Comparison of baseline and postoperative score averages demonstrated significant improvements in Tegner scores (3.7 ± 2.9 vs 5.1 ± 2.6; P = .003), HOS-ADL (63.3 ± 16.4 vs 89.1 ± 14.5; P < .001), HOS-SSS (40.8 ± 20.4 vs 79.5 ± 21.6; P < .001), mHHS (61.5 ± 16.2 vs 87.0 ± 17.7; P < .001), and NAHS (56.6 ± 14.9 vs 78.7 ± 18.3; P < .001). The percentage of patients who achieved MCID for HOS-ADL, HOS-SSS, mHHS, and NAHS were 89.8%, 83.0%, 75.6%, and 81.6%, respectively. Overall, 91.8% of patients met the threshold for achieving MCID in at least one outcome score. Of the 57 patients, 5 (8.8%) failed clinically, with 1 (1.8%) undergoing revision surgery and 4 (6.9%) undergoing conversion to total hip arthroplasty. There was a direct correlation between preoperative alpha angle and postoperative HOS-ADL. Femoral chondral lesion size and CMI inversely correlated with postoperative HOS-ADL. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of hip chondral defects with microfracture and hyaline allograft augmentation demonstrated excellent survivorship and significantly improved patient report outcomes at 1 year. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, retrospective case series.

BACKGROUND: Given the increase in demand in treatment of glenohumeral arthritis with anatomic total (aTSA) and reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA), it is imperative to improve quality of patient care while controlling costs as private and federal insurers continue its gradual transition toward bundled payment models. Big data analytics with machine learning shows promise in predicting health care costs. This is significant as cost prediction may help control cost by enabling health care systems to appropriately allocate resources that help mitigate the cause of increased cost. METHODS: The Nationwide Readmissions Database (NRD) was accessed in 2018. The database was queried for all primary aTSA and RTSA by International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) procedure codes: 0RRJ0JZ and 0RRK0JZ for aTSA and 0RRK00Z and 0RRJ00Z for RTSA. Procedures were categorized by diagnoses: osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), avascular necrosis (AVN), fracture, and rotator cuff arthropathy (RCA). Costs were calculated by utilizing the total hospital charge and each hospital's cost-to-charge ratio. Hospital characteristics were included, such as volume of procedures performed by the respective hospital for the calendar year and wage index, which represents the relative average hospital wage for the respective geographic area. Unplanned readmissions within 90 days were calculated using unique patient identifiers, and cost of readmissions was added to the total admission cost to represent the short-term perioperative health care cost. Machine learning algorithms were used to predict patients with immediate postoperative admission costs greater than 1 standard deviation from the mean, and readmissions. RESULTS: A total of 49,354 patients were isolated for analysis, with an average patient age of 69.9 ± 9.6 years. The average perioperative cost of care was $18,843 ± $10,165. In total, there were 4279 all-cause readmissions, resulting in an average cost of $13,871.00 ± $14,301.06 per readmission. Wage index, hospital volume, patient age, readmissions, and diagnosis-related group severity were the factors most correlated with the total cost of care. The logistic regression and random forest algorithms were equivalent in predicting the total cost of care (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.83). CONCLUSION: After shoulder arthroplasty, there is significant variability in cumulative hospital costs, and this is largely affected by readmissions. Hospital characteristics, such as geographic area and volume, are key determinants of overall health care cost. When accounting for this, machine learning algorithms may predict cases with high likelihood of increased resource utilization and/or readmission.

PURPOSE: To report the rates of achieving clinically significant outcomes as defined by the minimal clinically important difference (MCID), patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS), or substantial clinical benefit (SCB) in adolescent patients and the rates of clinical failure 5 years after undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS: Data from consecutive adolescent patients (defined by the American Academy of Pediatrics as age 11 to 21 years) who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with routine capsular closure for the treatment of FAIS between January 2012 and January 2015 by a single, fellowship-trained surgeon was collected. Baseline data, clinical outcomes including Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living, HOS-Sports Subscale, modified Harris hip score, international Hip Outcome Tool, and clinical failure rates were recorded at 5 years after operative. Clinical failure was defined by revision hip arthroscopy or conversion to total hip arthroplasty. Clinically significant outcomes was defined as achieving MCID, PASS, or SCB on at least 1 hip-specific outcome measure. RESULTS: Of the 139 eligible patients, a total of 85 (60.4%) patients (85 hips) were included in the final analysis, with an age and body mass index average of 17.6 ± 2.5 years (range 13-21) and 22.3 ± 3.1 kg/m2, respectively. The majority of the patients were female (80.6%) and participated in sports (76.2%). There was statistically significant difference between preoperative and postoperative score averages across every reported outcome (P < .001). At 5 years, 88.4%, 67.6%, and 64.9% reached at least 1 threshold for achieving MCID, PASS, and SCB, respectively, whereas 89.2% achieved at least one of the meaningful outcome thresholds. Last, 2 patients (2.4%) failed clinically, with both undergoing revision (2.4%) because of continued pain. There were no conversions to total hip arthroplasty. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that a large majority (89.2%) of adolescent patients undergoing primary arthroscopic treatment for symptomatic FAIS achieved meaningful clinically significant outcomes. Furthermore, only 2.4% of patients failed clinically, requiring revision hip arthroscopy because of continued pain. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, Retrospective Case Series.

PURPOSE: To (1) compare the rates of reaching threshold hip-specific outcome scores for achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) in patients who underwent partial versus complete T-capsulotomy repair and (2) identify the failure rates in each group 5 years after undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS: Data from consecutive patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS performed by a single fellowship-trained surgeon from January 2011 to March 2013 were collected and analyzed. Baseline data, hip-specific outcomes, and clinical failure rates were recorded at a minimum of 5 years postoperatively. Patients with partial T-capsulotomy repair were matched 1:3 by age, body mass index, and sex to patients with complete T-capsulotomy repair. Threshold scores for achieving the MCID and PASS were calculated and compared between the 2 groups. Additionally, rates of revision and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were compared between the groups. RESULTS: A total of 379 patients were available for analysis (39 partial and 340 complete repairs), with 100 patients included in the matching process (25 in the partial-repair group and 75 in the complete-repair group). Comparison of radiographic parameters, including the Tönnis grade, alpha angle, and lateral center-edge angle, between the 2 groups showed no statistically significant difference (P > .05 for all). Comparison of postoperative score averages between the partial- and complete-closure groups showed a significant difference in the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living Subscale (85.4 ± 17.7 vs 94.6 ± 7.8, P < .001), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (76.6 ± 26.2 vs 89.3 ± 16.8, P = .034), modified Harris Hip Score (83.2 ± 19.7 vs 90.5 ± 11.2, P = .035), and visual analog scale pain score (24.5 ± 30.8 vs 13.4 ± 15.8, P = .035). A total of 65 complete-repair patients (95.6%) achieved the MCID for at least 1 outcome measure versus 18 patients with partial repair (78.3%) (P = .04). A total of 69 complete-repair patients (92%) achieved the PASS for at least 1 outcome measure versus 18 partial-repair patients (72%) (P = .017). Of the 39 partial-repair patients, 35.9% (n = 14) underwent revision or conversion to THA, as compared with 2.9% (n = 10) in the overall cohort. CONCLUSIONS: At a minimum 5-year follow-up, patients with complete capsular closure after hip arthroscopy for FAIS show superior long-term outcomes and achieve higher rates of meaningful clinical success when compared with patients with partial capsular closure. Furthermore, patients with partial capsular repair undergo revision or conversion to THA at high rates. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

PURPOSE: To compare the impact of age and gender on achieving meaningful outcomes among minimum patients 5 years after undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS: Consecutive patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS by a single fellowship-trained surgeon between January 2012 and October 2014 were analyzed. Study inclusion criteria included any patient undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS, with 5 years follow-up. Preoperative and 5-year postoperative functional scores were collected, including the Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living Subscale (HOS-ADL), HOS-Sport Subscale (HOS-SS), modified Harris hip score (mHHS), and Visual Analog Scale for satisfaction. Patients were matched 1:1 by gender and age to compare outcomes between these 2 demographics. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) were calculated for each functional measure and compared by gender and age. RESULTS: Of the 340 patients (70.5%) with 5 years' follow up, 150 were matched by gender and age into one of the following groups: female patients <30 years, female patients 30 to 45 years, female patients >45 years, male patients <30 years, male patients 30 to 45 years, and male patients >45 years of age. At minimum 5-year follow-up, all 6 groups demonstrated statistically significant improvement in the functional outcome score averages and pain (P < .001 for all). Both within gender and within age category analysis of postoperative functional scores did not demonstrate any statistical differences (P > .05). Analysis of achieving MCID and PASS demonstrated that females had higher rates of reaching the HOS-SS and mHHS threshold for achieving MCID as compared to their male counterparts (P < .05). Furthermore, patients <30 years old had higher rates of reaching the HOS-ADL and mHHS for achieving PASS when compared to patients >45 years old (P < .05). CONCLUSION: The majority of patients achieve clinically significant outcome improvement at 5-year follow-up after arthroscopic FAIS surgery. Females reach the mHHS threshold for achieving MCID at significantly higher rates than males. Patients <30 years of age achieved PASS on the HOS-ADL and mHHS threshold scores at higher rates than those >45 years old. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, case-control study.

BACKGROUND: Rupture of the distal biceps tendon is an increasingly frequent injury sustained predominantly by middle-aged men. Despite the prevalence of sport in this age group, little is known regarding return to sport outcomes following surgery. METHODS: Patients undergoing distal biceps tendon repair (DBR) between January 2015 and January 2017 were contacted electronically via e-mail and via telephone to administer a previously validated and standard return to sport survey. Patients self-reported preinjury and current level of sport and activity as well as preinjury and current level of select weightlifts. RESULTS: A total of 77 of 124 patients were available for follow-up (62.1%). Of these patients, 61 endorsed preoperative sport and were included for analysis. Average follow-up was 38.7 ± 6.7 months. The mean age at surgery was 47.5 ± 8.8 years, and the mean body mass index was 30.3 ± 5.1. The dominant side was affected in 25 of 61 cases. Of the 61 included patients, 57 (93.4%) were able to return to sport at any level (lower, same, or higher intensity than preinjury activity level). Forty of the patients (65.6%) were able to return to sport at same or higher intensity. Mean time to return to sport was 6.0 ± 2.8 months. Days from injury to surgery (odds ratio [OR] 0.999, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.998-0.999), suture anchor fixation in comparison to suture button (OR 0.602, 95% CI 0.427-0.850), and dominant-side surgery (OR 0.749, 95% CI 0.582-0.963) were associated with a decreased likelihood to return to sport at same or higher level of duty. Single-sided incision in comparison to double (OR 5.209, 95% CI 1.239-20.903) and dominant-side surgery (OR 6.370, 95% CI 1.639-24.762) were associated with increased duration to return to sport. CONCLUSION: Distal biceps tendon rupture is a significant injury; however, patients can expect high levels of return to sport following DBR with some residual impairment compared with baseline. It is important to counsel patients on their expectations while taking into account the results of this study: that there will be a small but appreciable decrease in strength compared with preinjury levels.

While basic science research confirms the robust biological profile of juvenile chondrocytes, the clinical outcomes after particulated juvenile cartilage allograft transplantation are not well established. A retrospective analysis of active duty servicemembers undergoing surgical treatment with particulated juvenile articular cartilage allograft transplantation for chondral defects of the knee from two military treatment facilities was completed. Demographic variables, operative details, activity limitations, and medical discharges were obtained. A total of 29 patients with 36 treated chondral defects were isolated at an average follow-up of 16.2 months. The cohort was comprised of male service members in the Army with mean age of 33.1 years. Location of chondral lesion included the patellofemoral articulation (patella 39%, trochlea 31%, bipolar lesions 8%) and condyles (31%). Offloading or realignment osteotomy procedures were performed in 7 patients (23%). Of all patients, 14 servicemembers (48%) underwent knee-related medical discharge, and one patient underwent conversion to total knee arthroplasty. In this small patient cohort, particulated juvenile cartilage allograft transplantation for chondral defects of the knee did not reliably restore military servicemembers to full military function. At least one in two patients had persisting knee pain after chondral restoration procedure. (Journal of Surgical Orthopaedic Advances 30(1):010-013, 2021).

The contemporary management of biceps-labral pathology has increasingly transitioned toward primary treatment of the long head of the biceps tendon, largely in response to more consistent outcomes relative to SLAP repair and so-called benign neglect. Accordingly, there has been renewed interest in evaluating relevant differences between varying operative techniques and constructs for biceps tenodesis, including an array of subacromial, intra-articular, suprapectoral, and subpectoral methods. Among these, arthroscopic suprapectoral tenodesis and mini-open subpectoral tenodesis remain in contention for "best in show," albeit with distinctly different merits and risks. Important considerations with either technique include restoration of the native length-tension relation, avoidance of perioperative complications, surgical-site morbidity, and technical ease. Dogma aside, surgeons facile with both techniques can confidently counsel their patients on the comparable short-term results after suprapectoral or subpectoral biceps tenodesis.

Advances in the understanding of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and advancements in hip arthroscopic techniques, including chondrolabral preservation and labral repair, have led to improvements in success rates, functional outcomes, and return to sports over the past several years. This improvement in outcomes also is attributed to the increased awareness of performing capsular closure after addressing intra-articular hip pathology, to preserve the biomechanical properties of the hip. A number of biomechanical studies have demonstrated that the iliofemoral ligament is a critical component of hip biomechanics, providing stability and limiting joint translation, distraction, and rotation within the normal range of hip motion. The interportal and T-capsulotomy are the most commonly used methods for accessing intra-articular pathology; both techniques require transection of the iliofemoral ligament perpendicular to its fibers, which may lead to micro- and macroinstability if left unrepaired at the end of the procedure. Several clinical studies have been published in the recent literature demonstrating that patients who undergo hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and have an unrepaired capsule have lower functional outcome scores, achievement of meaningful outcomes, success rates, as well as greater failure rates and reported pain when compared with patients who have complete capsular closure. Capsular plication of the vertical T-limb and closure of the interporal limb via plication have been reported to improved outcomes. Degree of plication is dependent on dynamic, intraoperative assessment of hip range of motion. The senior author recommends reflecting of the medial and lateral leaflets after T-capsulotomy with polyethylene sutures to provide better exposure of the peripheral compartment, which can be used for closure. The remainder of the closure is performed with a suture-passing device and approximately 2 to 3 interrupted stitches per limb.

PURPOSE: To compare the biomechanical properties of the hip joint with an intact femoral cam lesion, partial cam resection, and complete cam resection. METHODS: A cadaveric study was performed using 8 hemipelvises with cam-type morphology (alpha angle > 55°) and intact labra. Intra-articular pressure maps were produced for each specimen under the following conditions: (1) native cam morphology (intact), (2) cam morphology with incomplete resection (partial), and (3) cam morphology with complete resection (complete). By use of an open technique, resection of the superior portion of the cam morphology was performed with a 5.5-mm burr to create the partial resection, followed by the inferior portion to create the complete resection. In each condition, 3 biomechanical parameters were obtained: contact pressure, contact area, and peak force within a region of interest. Measurements were performed 3 times in each condition, and the average value was used for statistical analysis. Analysis of variance was used to compare biomechanical parameters between conditions. RESULTS: A statistically significant difference was found between the pre- and post-resection alpha angles (62.2° ± 3.9° vs 40.9° ± 1.4°, P < .001). Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the normalized average pressure values of hips with complete resection of cam lesions were significantly lower than those of hips with incomplete femoral cam lesions and hips with intact cam morphology (100% vs 93.6% ± 8.3% and 82.6% ± 16.2%, respectively; P < .0001). The percentage reduction of contact pressure in the complete and partial groups was 17.4% and 6.4%, respectively, compared with the intact group. Contact area and peak force showed no statistically significant differences across the 3 conditions (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: Complete cam resection results in significantly lower intra-articular hip contact pressures than incomplete cam resection and native cam morphology in a cadaveric hip model. These observations underscore the importance of ensuring complete resection of femoral cam lesions in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Previous studies have shown that the most common reason for revision hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome is incomplete femoral cam resection during the index operation. This study shows biomechanical differences associated with partial cam resection compared with the complete cam resection state that may translate to persistent symptoms.

PURPOSE: To determine the effect of the preoperative duration of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS)-associated symptoms on clinical outcomes at a minimum of 5 years after hip arthroscopy. METHODS: We identified FAIS patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy between January 2012 and January 2014 with a minimum of 5 years' follow-up. Patient demographic characteristics and clinical outcomes, comprising the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (HOS-SS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), pain score, and satisfaction score, were analyzed. The minimal clinically important difference, patient acceptable symptomatic state, and substantial clinical benefit were calculated. Patients were stratified based on the preoperative duration of symptoms: less than 2 years versus 2 years or longer. Multivariate regressions were constructed to determine the association between the preoperative symptom duration and clinical outcomes at 5 years after hip arthroscopy. RESULTS: A total of 310 patients were included with a mean age (±standard deviation) of 34.1 ± 11.9 years and body mass index of 25.3 ± 5.1. The study group showed statistically significant improvements in the HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, mHHS, pain score, and satisfaction score (P < .001 for all). A preoperative duration of symptoms of 2 or more years was an independent predictor of worse HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, mHHS, and pain score (P < .05 for all). Furthermore, a longer duration of symptoms was associated with a lower likelihood of achieving the minimal clinically important difference for the HOS-ADL (odds ratio [OR], 0.53; P = .037), HOS-SS (OR, 0.38; P = .003), and mHHS (OR, 0.43; P = .009); the patient acceptable symptomatic state for the HOS-SS (OR, 0.44; P = .006) and mHHS (OR, 0.46; P = .006) but not the HOS-ADL despite trending toward significance (OR, 0.59; P = .098); and substantial clinical benefit for the HOS-ADL (OR, 0.50; P = .011), HOS-SS (OR, 0.52; P = .020), and mHHS (OR, 0.47; P = .007). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a preoperative duration of FAIS-associated symptoms of 2 or more years prior to hip arthroscopy experience inferior outcomes and a lower frequency of clinically significant outcome improvement than patients with a shorter duration of symptoms at medium-to long-term follow-up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative trial.

PURPOSE: To determine clinical outcomes of patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy for failure to improve with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intraoperative evidence of a capsular incompetency as compared with (1) patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy without evidence of a capsular incompetency and (2) patients undergoing primary surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) at a minimum follow up of 2 years. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy with MRI/arthrogram-confirmed capsular incompetency between January 2012 and June 2016 were analyzed. All revision patients with capsular incompetency was matched 1:1 by age and body mass index to FAIS revision patients without capsular incompetency and primary FAIS patients. Outcomes included the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living (ADL), HOS-Sports Subscale (SS), Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), pain, and satisfaction. The minimal clinically important difference was calculated for HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, and mHHS. RESULTS: In total, 49 patients (54.4%) of 90 undergoing revision hip arthroscopy had MRI evidence of a capsular incompetency. Most patients were female (79.6%), with a mean age of 30 ± 10.5 years and body mass index of 25.7 ± 5.5. The difference among pre- and postoperative HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, mHHS, and visual analog scale score for pain were all statistically significant (P < .05). Analysis of reported outcomes among matched groups demonstrated statistically significant differences, with the group undergoing primary surgery having the greatest 2-year outcomes. Only 66.7% of patients undergoing revision surgery with capsular incompetency achieved a minimal clinically important difference; however, there was no significant difference when compared with revision patients without capsular incompetency. When compared with patients undergoing primary surgery, the difference in frequency was statistically significant (66.7% vs 91.3%; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: More than one half of patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy had MRI and intraoperative evidence of capsular incompetency. Revision arthroscopy for capsular incompetency results in significantly improved 2-year outcomes. However, patients undergoing revision for capsular incompetency and intact capsule revision patients reported significantly lower outcomes compared with primary patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, Retrospective Comparative Study.

PURPOSE: To biomechanically compare the suction seal, contact area, contact pressures, and peak forces of the intact native labrum, torn labrum, 12- to 3-o'clock labral repair, and 270° labral reconstruction in the hip. METHODS: A cadaveric study was performed using 8 fresh-frozen hemipelvises with intact labra and without osteoarthritis. Intra-articular pressure maps were produced for each specimen using an electromechanical testing system under the following conditions: (1) intact labrum, (2) labral tear, (3) labral repair between the 12- and 3-o'clock positions, and (4) 270° labral reconstruction using iliotibial band allograft. Specimens were examined in neutral position, 20° of extension, and 60° of flexion. In each condition, contact pressure, contact area, and peak force were obtained. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to identify differences in biomechanical parameters among the 3 conditions. Qualitative differences in suction seal were compared between labral repair and labral reconstruction using the Fisher exact test. RESULTS: Repeated-measures analysis of variance for contact area in neutral position, extension, and flexion showed statistically significant differences between the normalized study states (P < .05). Post hoc analysis showed significantly larger contact areas measured in labral repair specimens than in labral reconstruction specimens in the extension and flexion positions. Region-of-interest analysis for the normalized contact area in the extension and flexion positions, as well as normalized contact pressures in neutral position, showed statistically significant differences between the labral states (P < .05). Finally, 8 labral repairs (100%) versus only 1 labral reconstruction (12.5%) retained the manually tested suction seal (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: In this in vitro biomechanical model, 270° labral reconstruction resulted in decreased intra-articular contact area and loss of suction seal when compared with labral repair. Clinically, labral reconstruction may not restore the biomechanical characteristics of the native labrum as compared with labral repair. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Labral reconstruction may result in lower intra-articular hip contact area and loss of suction seal, affecting the native biomechanical function of the acetabular labrum. Further biomechanical studies and clinical studies are necessary to determine whether there are any long-term consequences of 270° labral reconstruction.

PURPOSE: To compare the use and responsiveness of Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) to legacy patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) at 6-month follow-up. METHODS: Data from patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with routine capsular closure between August 2018 and January 2019 for the treatment of FAIS were analyzed. Preoperative outcomes, 6-month postoperative outcomes, and demographics were recorded. Primary outcome measures included PROMIS Physical Function (PROMIS-PF), PROMIS Pain Interference (PROMIS-PI), and PROMIS Depression. The legacy PROMs included Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score Sport Subscale (HOS-SS), and the international hip outcome tool 12 questions (iHOT-12). Floor and ceiling effects along with the responsiveness and Cohen's d effect size of each PROM tool were calculated. RESULTS: Ninety-six patients with an average age and body mass index of 32.4 ± 11.9 years and 25.9 ± 6.1 kg/m2, respectively, were included in the final analysis. All outcomes were significantly higher at 6 months compared with the preoperative level (P < .001) except for PROMIS Depression (P = .873). PROMIS-PF demonstrated excellent correlation with HOS-SS (r = 0.81; P < .001), very good correlation with HOS-ADL (r = 0.73; P < .001), and good correlation with iHOT-12 (r = 0.68; P < .001). No floor was observed for any measure. The effect size was large for all outcomes, except PROMIS Depression (d = 0.04), but largest for iHOT12 (d = 1.87) followed by HOS-ADL (d = 1.29). The iHOT-12 was more responsive than PROMIS-PI (relative efficiency [RE] = 3.95), PROMIS-PF (RE = 4.13), HOS-ADL (RE = 2.26), and HOS-SS (RE = 3.84). HOS-SS was similarly responsive to PROMIS-PI (RE=1.03) and PROMIS-PF (RE=1.08). However, PROMIS-PF was overall the least responsive. CONCLUSIONS: In patients at 6 months postoperatively from hip arthroscopy for FAIS, iHOT-12 was the most responsive and had the largest effect size. In contrast, PROMIS-PF had a lower effect size compared with legacy hip-specific PROMs. Additionally, PROMIS-PF did not correlate as well with iHOT-12 compared with HOS-SS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case series.

PURPOSE: To determine whether requiring postoperative opioid refills has an effect on both baseline and postoperative functional scores, as well as rates of achieving clinical success 2 years after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS: Data from consecutive patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS from January 2012 to December 2016 were analyzed. Patients with at least 1 postoperative opioid refill were matched 1:2 by age and body mass index to patients not requiring refills. Preoperative and postoperative patient-reported outcomes including the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living Subscale, HOS-Sports Subscale, and modified Hip Harris Score, as well as visual analog scale (VAS) pain and satisfaction surveys, were compared between the 2 groups, as well as between patients who requested 1 refill versus those requiring 2 or more refills. The minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) were calculated for the study group and compared between patient groups. RESULTS: A total of 128 patients (14.5%) requesting at least 1 postoperative opioid refill and 256 with no refills were included in the study. Analysis showed that the refill group had lower patient-reported outcomes (P < .05 for all), a lower VAS satisfaction score average (73.2 ± 30.7 vs 80.1 ± 25.9, P = .029), and a higher VAS pain score average (27.2 ± 26.1 vs 19.9 ± 22.7, P = .007). Similar trends were seen when patients with 1 refill were compared with those with 2 or more refills. Analysis of meaningful clinical outcomes showed that patients in the refill group had lower rates of achieving the PASS (68.3% vs 77.2%, P = .006). However, there were no statistically significant differences in achieving the minimal clinically important difference between the 2 groups (P > .05 for all). CONCLUSIONS: Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS who require 1 or more opioid refills postoperatively are likely to have lower baseline and postoperative functional scores, as well as to achieve the PASS at lower rates, compared with patients who do not require an additional opioid prescription to what is routinely given after surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective case-control study.

PURPOSE: To (1) define Substantial Clinical Benefit (SCB), Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State (PASS), and Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) for the visual analog scale (VAS) Satisfaction in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), and (2) identify preoperative predictors of achieving each outcome end-point. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy between November 2014 and January 2017 were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. Inclusion criteria consisted of patients with clinical and radiographic diagnosis of FAIS, who failed nonoperative treatment, underwent primary hip arthroscopy to address the FAIS, and had at minimum 2-year follow-up. Baseline data and postoperative patient-reported outcome scores were recorded at 2 years postoperatively. To quantify clinical significance of outcome achievement on the VAS)Satisfaction, we calculated MCID, PASS, and SCB for this outcome measure. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify preoperative predictors of achieving SCB, PASS, and MCID satisfaction. RESULTS: A total of 335 patients were included in the final analysis, with an average age and body mass index (BMI) of 32.8 (standard deviation ± 12.4) years and 25.2 (standard deviation ± 5.3), respectively, and the majority being female (69.3%). The values on the VAS satisfaction were identified to represent MCID, PASS, and SCB, respectively: 52.8, 80.9, and 89.7. The rates of achieving clinically significant improvement on the VAS Satisfaction was 85.6%, 68.1%, and 56.9% for MCID, PASS, and SCB, respectively. A larger preoperative alpha angle was predictive for achieving SCB (odds ratio [OR], 1.076; P = .046), whereas lower BMI (OR, 0.955; P = .047) and larger preoperative alpha angle (OR, 1.12; P = .025) were predictors for achieving PASS. CONCLUSIONS: This study identified threshold VAS satisfaction scores of 52.8, 80.9, and 89.7 for achieving MCID, SCB, and PASS, respectively, at 2-year follow-up following hip arthroscopy for FAIS. Furthermore, preoperative variables including larger preoperative alpha angles and lower BMI are predictors of achieving superior clinical satisfaction. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, Case Series.
