RESUMO
PURPOSE: To investigate the thickness and intra-substance change of anterior capsule of the hip joint, and compare the difference of the capsular features in patients with different statuses of hip stability. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed to review a hip preservation database. Using the lateral center edge angle(LCEA), patients with borderline dysplasia of the hip (BDH) of 20° ≤ LCEA ≤ 25°, femoracetabular impingement(FAI) with LCEA > 30° and dysplasia of the hip (DH) of LCEA < 20° were enrolled and stratified into different treatment groups. The patients' imaging was reviewed by two experienced musculoskeletal radiologists who were blinded to clinical outcomes. Thickness and intra-substance change of the anterior hip capsule was measured on the sagittal oblique sequences of MRI. A surgeon measured the thickness of the anterior hip capsule during arthroscopy. The capsular thickness and intra-substance change were compared among different groups. RESULTS: Thirty patients (17 women and 13 men) enrolled in each group (FAI, BDH, and DH) matched by sex and ages were evaluated. There were no significant differences in terms of age, sex, BMI, Alpha angle, and Tönnis grade among all three groups. The mean thickness of the anterior capsule in the DH group was 3.2 ± 0.5 mm, which was significantly thinner than that in the BDH and FAI groups (4.5 ± 0.8 mm and 4.7 ± 0.6 mm), and there was no significant difference in capsular thickness between the BDH and FAI groups. The Median of anterior capsule thickness via arthroscopic measuring was 6 mm and 7 mm in the BDH and FAI groups respectively, which has no statistical difference. The intra-substance change of the anterior capsule shows a significant difference among the three groups, and a higher incidence of delamination of the capsule was found in DH groups (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with hip dysplasia have a significantly reduced capsular thickness on MRI and delaminated anterior joint capsule, which could be a sequence of instability. The clinical relevance of this study is that capsular thickness and intra-substance changes of the anterior capsule vary which could alter capsular management strategies.

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients treated arthroscopically for symptomatic borderline dysplasia of the hip (BHD) with a T-shaped capsular plication, with a minimum follow-up of 24 months. METHODS: Twenty-seven patients who had undergone hip arthroscopy and T-shaped capsular plication for symptomatic BHD were included in the study. All patients were clinically evaluated prior to surgery (T0) and at two consecutive follow-ups (T1: 12 ± 1.2 months; T2: 52.0 ± 23.2 months) using the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score, the Hip Outcome Score in activities of daily living (HOS-ADL) and sport-specific subscale (HOS-SSS), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Short Form-12 in its physical (PCS) and mental component scores (MCS). We also evaluated the presence of correlations and analysed the possible differences between subgroups. RESULTS: We found a significant difference for HOS-ADL, HOS-SSS, VAS and WOMAC with the Friedman test for repeated measures through time points (p < 0.0001), but not for MCS. All clinical scores reported a significant improvement compared to the previous time point (p < 0.05), with the exception of HOS-SSS, for which p = 0.2570 between T1 and T2. The body mass index was positively correlated with preoperative VAS (R = 0.42857; p = 0.0257) and negatively correlated with PCS at T0 (R = - 0.40999; p = 0.0337) and with PCS (R = - 0.40491; p = 0.0362), MCS (R = - 0.45939; p = 0.0159) and WOMAC (R = - 0.40573; p = 0.0216) at T2. No complications were reported in our cohort. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the current study confirm that patients with intra-articular hip pathology and concomitant BHD (LCEA 20°-25°) can benefit from arthroscopic treatment and that T-shaped capsular plication is one of the available options. Orthopaedic surgeons specialising in hip arthroscopy should consider arthroscopy for the treatment of symptomatic BHD for stabilising and strengthening the joint. Future studies should focus on finding out which type of patients can benefit most from this procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV: Prospective Case Series.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess intra-operative findings, surgical procedures, and outcomes in a cohort of patients with borderline hip dysplasia treated with arthroscopic labral repair, femoral osteoplasty, and capsular plication, and compare these outcomes with those of a rigorously matched control group without dysplasia. METHODS: Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed for patients with a lateral center-edge angle between 20 and 24° who underwent hip arthroscopy surgery between 2014 and 2018. Labral, chondral status, psoas impingement, ligamentum teres, and cam morphology were evaluated. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) scores included modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living Subscale (HOS-AVD) and Hip Outcome Score Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), and International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (IHOT-12). Clinical relevance was measured with the minimal clinical important difference (MCID), patient acceptable symptom state (PASS), and substantial clinical benefit (SCB). RESULTS: Twenty patients met the inclusion criteria. An age- and sex-matched control group of 40 patients was also selected. Arthroscopic intra-operative findings were similar between cohorts. At a mean follow-up of 50 months in the borderline hip dysplasia cohort, and 52 months in the control cohort, there was a significant improvement in PROs in both cohorts, and no significant differences could be detected at the latest follow-up. The difference in frequency of patients achieving the MCID, PASS, and SCB was not statistically significant between cohorts. CONCLUSION: With strict patient selection criteria, hip arthroscopy may be a beneficial approach in patients with borderline hip dysplasia.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to obtain data on chondral damage and compare the damage patterns of various hip disorders. METHODS: Data were collected at 100 consecutive arthroscopies, and chondral lesions were recorded on anatomic articular maps divided into different anatomical zones. This geographic zone method made it possible to analyze the ICRS grade and location in relation to the hip morphology. RESULTS: The distribution and degree of the chondral defects showed a hip morphology-specific pattern. On the acetabular side, there were high incidences of full-thickness defects in the anterior-superior zone and the middle superior zone in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) (zone 2: 25.4 % grade 3, 35.5 % grade 4; zone 3: 20.3 % grade 3, 37.2 % grade 4) and borderline dysplasia (zone 2: 31.2 % grade 3, 12.5 % grade 4; zone 3: 18.7 % grade 3, 25 % grade 4). However, in patients with joint laxity, partial-thickness defects were dominant (zone 2: 50 % grade 1, 15 % grade 2; zone 3: 40 % grade 1). In patients with acetabular dysplasia, full-thickness defects extended even to the posterior superior zone (zone 4: 80 % grade 4). On the femoral head side, the incidence of full-thickness cartilage injuries was high in patients with FAI and borderline dysplasia compared to those with joint laxity and acetabular dysplasia. CONCLUSION: Evaluation of chondral damage using the geographic zone method showed that the pattern of cartilage damage was influenced by hip morphology. Understanding of hip disorder-specific chondral damage patterns may be useful for the development of arthroscopic classification of hip disorders and may lead to the establishment of treatment guidelines.

BACKGROUND: Patients with borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) and concomitant femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) have demonstrated similar outcomes at short- and midterm follow-up compared with equivalent patients without dysplasia. However, comparisons between these groups at long-term follow-up have yet to be investigated. PURPOSE: To compare long-term clinical outcomes between patients with BHD undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS versus matched control patients without BHD. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients with BHD (lateral center-edge angle, 18°-25°) who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS between January 2012 and February 2013. Patients were propensity matched in a 1:3 ratio by age, sex, and body mass index to control patients without BHD who underwent primary hip arthroscopy. Groups were compared in terms of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) preoperatively and at 10 years postoperatively, including the Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living subscale (HOS-ADL) and Sports subscale (HOS-SS), modified Harris Hip Score, 12-item International Hip Outcome Tool, visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction. Achievement rates for minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) were compared between groups. Kaplan-Meier survivorship curves were assessed between groups. RESULTS: At a mean follow-up of 10.3 ± 0.3 years, 28 patients with BHD (20 women; age, 30.8 ± 10.8 years) were matched to 84 controls who underwent primary hip arthroscopy. Both groups significantly improved from preoperative assessment in all PRO measures at 10 years (P < .001 for all). PRO scores were similar between groups, aside from HOS-SS (BHD, 62.9 ± 31.9 vs controls, 80.1 ± 26.0; P = .030). Rates of MCID achievement were similar between groups for all PROs (HOS-ADL: BHD, 76.2% vs controls, 67.9%, P = .580; HOS-SS: BHD, 63.2% vs controls, 69.4%, P = .773; modified Harris Hip Score: BHD, 76.5% vs controls, 67.9%, P = .561; VAS pain: BHD, 75.0% vs controls, 91.7%, P = .110). Rates of PASS achievement were significantly lower in the BHD group for HOS-ADL (BHD, 39.1% vs controls, 77.4%; P = .002), HOS-SS (BHD, 45.5% vs controls, 84.7%; P = .001), and VAS pain (BHD, 50.0% vs controls, 78.5%; P = .015). No significant difference was found in the rate of subsequent reoperation on the index hip between groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated comparable survivorship at long-term follow-up (P = .645). CONCLUSION: After primary hip arthroscopy, patients with BHD in the setting of FAIS had significantly improved PRO scores at 10-year follow-up, comparable with propensity-matched controls without BHD. Rates of MCID achievement were similar between groups, although patients with BHD had lower rates of PASS achievement. Patients with BHD had similar long-term hip arthroscopy survivorship compared with controls, with no significant difference in rates of revision hip arthroscopy or conversion to total hip arthroplasty.

BACKGROUND: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition caused by repetitive abutment of a morphologically abnormal proximal femur and/or acetabulum that may result in chondral and labral pathology. An understanding of radiographic parameters associated with successful primary surgery has not been well established. PURPOSE: To determine preoperative radiographic parameters that predict reoperation for FAI and correlate radiographic measurements with outcomes in these patients. STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: A prospectively collected institutional registry of adolescent patients (age, <19 years) who underwent surgery for FAI (arthroscopic/open) was reviewed. Preoperative standing anteroposterior pelvic radiographs were analyzed for femoroepiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index, as well as lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) and alpha, Tönnis, and Sharp angles. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) (modified Harris Hip Score, Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) were analyzed preoperatively and at 1- and 2-year followup. Radiographic indication of risk for reoperation was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Spearman correlation was calculated between radiographic measurements and PROs at 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS: A total of 81 patients (91 hips) underwent primary surgery (57 surgical dislocations vs 34 arthroscopies) for FAI. The mean age at time of primary operation was 16.23 years (range, 10.4-19.6 years) (73.6% female). Eleven hips (12.1%) underwent reoperation at a mean of 20.6 months from primary surgery. The LCEA, FEAR index, Tönnis angle, and Sharp angle before index surgery were significantly different (P < .05) between patients who underwent reoperation and those who did not. ROC analysis indicated that LCEA <22°, FEAR index >-8.7°, Tönnis angle >6.0°, and Sharp angle >44° were predictors for increased risk of reoperation. Using the cutoff values from the ROC analysis in this series, 43% of patients with an LCEA ≤22° had a repeat procedure, while only 8% of those with an LCEA >22° had a repeat procedure. Similar trends were seen with the other aforementioned acetabular radiographic measurements (FEAR index, Tönnis angle, Sharp angle). Patients who did not require a reoperation demonstrated significant improvement in all PRO categories from their preoperative to 2-year postoperative visits (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: In patients undergoing treatment for FAI, a reoperation was associated with radiographic signs of hip dysplasia, indicating that patients with a shallower acetabulum are at risk for a repeat operation.

BACKGROUND: Outcomes after isolated hip arthroscopic surgery for patients with dysplasia have been unfavorable. Results have included iatrogenic instability and conversion to total hip arthroplasty at a young age. However, patients with borderline dysplasia (BD) have shown more favorable results at short- and medium-term follow-up. PURPOSE: To assess long-term outcomes after hip arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement in patients with BD (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] = 18°-25°) compared with a control group of patients without dysplasia (LCEA = 26°-40°). STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We identified a group of 33 patients (38 hips) with BD who were treated for FAI between March 2009 and July 2012. An age- and sex-matched control group of 83 patients (96 hips) was also identified. Patient-reported outcome scores were collected preoperatively and subsequently at a mean of 9.6 years postoperatively. RESULTS: The mean LCEA and Tönnis angle were 22.42°± 2.02° and 6.27°± 3.23° in the BD group, respectively, and 31.71°± 3.52° and 2.42°± 3.02° in the control group, respectively (P < .001). At a mean follow-up of 9.6 years (range, 8.2-11.6 years), there was a significant improvement in all patient-reported outcome scores in both groups (P < .001). There were no significant differences between preoperative and postoperative scores or rates of achieving the minimal clinically important difference between the BD and control groups. Bilateral surgery was noted to be a risk factor for any revision during the follow-up period (P < .001). There were 2 hips (5.3%) that underwent revision surgery in the BD group and 10 hips (10.4%) in the control group; of these, 1 patient in the BD group underwent total hip arthroplasty, and 1 patient who had undergone bilateral surgery in the control group underwent bilateral hip resurfacing. CONCLUSION: Durable outcomes (>9 years) with low revision rates can be expected after hip arthroscopic surgery with an approach that involves labral preservation where possible and careful attention to capsular closure in patients with BD. The observed outcomes were similar to those of a femoroacetabular impingement group with normal coverage. These results highlight the importance of classifying patients into impingement or instability categories and tailoring treatment appropriately with arthroscopic surgery or periacetabular osteotomy, respectively.

INTRODUCTION: The role of arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in mild or borderline hip dysplasia (lateral center edge angle=18-25) is controversial. It is recommended to combine capsular plication with femoral neck osteoplasty and suture repair of the labrum. Few studies have investigated which radiological parameters are associated with failure of this procedure. HYPOTHESIS: A larger number of radiological signs of mild or borderline hip dysplasia than radiological signs of FAI negatively influence the outcomes of arthroscopic treatment. METHODS: This was a retrospective study done with data collected prospectively after a minimum of 2 years' follow-up in patients who underwent arthroscopic treatment of FAI due to cam impingement combined with mild to moderate hip dysplasia. Patients with hip osteoarthritis graded as ≥ Tönnis 2 were excluded. Functional outcome scores (mHHS and NAHS) were determined along with the need for reoperation. Three groups were defined based on the outcomes: success (mHHS ≥ Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State [PASS]); moderate improvement (improvement in mHHS + mHHSAssuntos

RESUMO
Background: Given the lack of established, externally validated criteria for the diagnosis of unstable hips, the Femoro-Epiphyseal Acetabular Roof (FEAR) index has been proposed as a useful tool for identifying hips with instability in the setting of borderline acetabular dysplasia. Purposes: To (1) determine the external performance of the FEAR index in identifying hips with a clinical diagnosis of instability in the setting of borderline dysplasia and (2) assess the performance of the FEAR index compared with acetabular inclination or physeal scar angle alone. Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3. Methods: The authors reviewed 176 patients with borderline acetabular dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle, 20°-25°). A positive FEAR index was defined as ≥5°. An alternative threshold ≥2° was also assessed. Significant instability was determined by the senior surgeon based on the combination of patient and radiographic features; unstable hips were treated with periacetabular osteotomy (with or without hip arthroscopy), and stable hips were treated with isolated hip arthroscopy. Results: Only 18% of borderline hips had a positive FEAR index. The ≥5° positive FEAR index threshold had a sensitivity of 33% (23/70) and specificity of 92% (98/106) in predicting the clinical diagnosis of instability. The ≥2° FEAR index threshold had a sensitivity of 39% (27/70) and specificity of 89% (94/106) in predicting the clinical diagnosis of instability. No alternative threshold for the FEAR index resulted in high levels of sensitivity and specificity. A threshold of -5° was required to reach an adequate sensitivity of 74%. The FEAR index remained a significant predictor of hip instability even after controlling for acetabular inclination (odds ratio, 1.12; P < .001) or physeal scar angle (odds ratio, 1.6; P < .001). Conclusion: In the current study, a positive FEAR index was generally indicative of the presence of clinical instability, but the FEAR index alone remained inadequate to fully define the instability of a given hip, as it demonstrated low sensitivity (only 33%) in the external validation. The FEAR index is best used in the context of other clinical and radiographic features.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Morphologic features of Iliocapsularis (IC) may aid clinical decision-making in the symptomatic hip. The relationship between IC muscle size and underlying hip pathology is emerging; however, research is limited in the imaging literature. The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and reproducibility of measurements of the IC muscle and its MRI appearances. It also looked for any association between IC dimension and axial levels, side, gender and bony features of hip instability. METHODS: Retrospective study of 37 MRI scans were assessed by four observers. MRI axial T1 images were used to define the IC anatomy, measure the IC and rectus femoris at the femoral head centre (FHC) and adjacent levels and calculate the iliocapsularis-to-rectus femoris (IR) ratio. Measurements were repeated at least 2 weeks later. Radiographic assessment of the lateral centre edge angle, acetabular index and femoral neck-shaft angle were also conducted. RESULTS: The IC was always present, but was well-defined in only 4% of cases with fair agreement. The intraclass correlation coefficient for reliability and reproducibility was the highest for IC width 0.94 (0.91-0.96). No significant correlation was identified between the IR ratio and radiographic parameters. CONCLUSION: Iliocapsularis is visible and reliably measured on MRI despite observers considering the muscle to be not well-defined. Despite gender differences in muscle size, the IR ratio was unchanged. There is a significant difference in the IR ratio above and below the FHC; therefore, clinicians need to be aware of how this may impact the clinical use when utilising the IR ratio.

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: Return to sports (RTS) rates and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after hip arthroscopy in athletes with borderline dysplasia (BD) have not been established. PURPOSE: (1) To report minimum 2-year PROs and RTS rates in high-level athletes with BD who underwent hip arthroscopy for labral pathology in the setting of microinstability and (2) to compare clinical results with those of a matched control group of athletes with normal acetabular coverage. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Data were reviewed for surgery performed between January 2012 and July 2018. Patients were considered eligible if they received a primary hip arthroscopy in the setting of BD (lateral center-edge angle, 18°-25°) and competed in professional, collegiate, or high school sports. Inclusion criteria included preoperative and minimum 2-year follow-up scores for the modified Harris Hip Score, Non-arthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific Subscale, and visual analog scale for pain. Athletes with BD were matched to a control group of athletes with normal acetabular coverage (lateral center-edge angle, 25°-40°). RESULTS: A total of 65 patients with BD were included in the study with a mean ± standard deviation follow-up of 47.5 ± 20.4 months. Athletes with BD showed significant improvement in all outcome measures recorded, demonstrated high RTS rates (80.7%), and achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) for the Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific Subscale at high rates (MCID, 90.8%; PASS, 75.4%). When compared with a propensity-matched control group with normal acetabular coverage, capsular plication was performed more commonly in the BD group (93.8% vs 82.7%; P = .037). PROs and RTS, PASS, and MCID rates were similar between the BD and control groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION: High-level athletes with BD who undergo primary hip arthroscopy for labral pathology in the setting of microinstability may expect favorable PROs and RTS rates at minimum 2-year follow-up. These results were comparable with those of a control group of athletes with normal coverage.

BACKGROUND: Sex-based differences have been largely uncharacterized for patients with borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) undergoing hip arthroscopy. PURPOSE: To evaluate for sex-based differences in clinical and pathologic characteristics as well as surgical outcomes in patients with BHD undergoing hip arthroscopy. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Between January 2011 and December 2018, data were prospectively collected on all patients with BHD undergoing primary hip arthroscopy. Patients were included if they had preoperative and minimum 2-year postoperative scores for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and visual analog scale for pain. Patients with previous ipsilateral hip conditions or surgery, Tönnis grade >1, lateral center-edge angle <18° or >25°, or workers' compensation status were excluded. Patients were then divided by sex and propensity score matched in a 1:1 ratio for body mass index, age, and Tönnis grade. The rates of patients who achieved the minimal clinically important difference were recorded for the mHHS and NAHS. The rates of achieving the patient acceptable symptomatic state for the mHHS were calculated. RESULTS: A total of 344 hips met the inclusion criteria, and 317 hips (92%) had adequate follow-up. Propensity score matching created cohorts of 109 male and 109 female patients. Male patients had significantly higher preoperative average alpha angles (69.79° vs 58.17°, P < .001), more often requiring a femoroplasty (97.2% vs 83.5%, P < .001), and had higher rates of complex labral tearing (50.5% vs 33.0%, P < .001). Male patients also had higher rates of grade 3 and 4 acetabular labral articular disruption (62.4% vs 19.3%, P < .001) and higher rates of grade 3 and 4 acetabular cartilage injury (59.6% vs 20.2%, P < .001) requiring a microfracture more frequently (32.1% vs 7.3%, P < .001). Female patients more typically had painful internal snapping requiring iliopsoas fractional lengthening (60.6% vs 32.1%, P < .001). Female patients also underwent capsular plication more regularly to address hip instability (79.8% vs 45.9%, P < .001). Male and female patients showed significant improvements in all outcome scores after surgery (P < .001). Female patients achieved the minimal clinically important difference for the NAHS at higher rates (85.3% vs 71.6%, P = .020). CONCLUSION: Female and male patients with BHD who underwent hip arthroscopy achieved favorable outcomes but had notably dissimilar pathology. Hence, although they share similar acetabular bony morphology, male and female patients with BHD may represent 2 very different pathologic entities.

PURPOSE: The aim is to compare the results of isolated hip arthroscopy in patients with borderline dysplasia with Lateral center edge angle (LCEA) between 18° and 25° with a control group of patients with normal LCEA (> 25°). METHODS: Fifty hip arthroscopies performed in 45 patients were retrospectively evaluated. Exclusion criteria were: age > 40, hip arthritis > grade 2 according to Tonnis classification, femoral head avascular necrosis, pediatric's orthopaedics conditions and true dysplasia with LCEA < 18°.Two groups were identified: group A with 15 hips with LCEA between 25° and 18° and Group control B made of 35 hips with LCEA > 25°. RESULTS: The groups were homogeneous for demography and pre-operative WOMAC and HOOS. Osteoplasty for CAM were performed in 100% of patients in both groups, only in 12 hips (34.4%) in group B we had both femoral and acetabular osteoplasty. Labral repair was performed in 86% of patients in group A, in 60% of patients in group B, capsular plication in 93% of group A, in 5% of case of group B. WOMAC and HOOS statically significant improved in both groups at final follow-up (24 months). No cases in both groups required conversion to total hip arthroplasty. Clinical outcomes of study group were comparable to the control group. CONCLUSION: Even if the present small series is not conclusive, we suggest isolated arthroscopic management of patients with FAI and LCEA between 18° and 25°, but capsular plication and careful labral management are strongly recommended. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Arthroscopic management of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in the setting of borderline hip dysplasia is controversial. Recently, there has been increased awareness of a prominent anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) resulting in subspinous impingement. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS: The purpose was to report outcomes of arthroscopic subspinous decompression in patients with symptomatic hip impingement and borderline hip dysplasia compared with a matched cohort with nondysplastic FAI. Addressing a prominent subspinous region and cam/pincer lesion in the borderline dysplastic hip may lead to favorable outcomes comparable with those of patients undergoing arthroscopic management of nondysplastic FAI. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Patients with symptomatic hip impingement, borderline dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA], 18°-24°), and prominent AIIS (BDSI group) whose nonoperative management failed and who subsequently underwent arthroscopic subspinous decompression were retrospectively identified. Three-dimensional computed tomography imaging was used to categorize AIIS morphology into type 1, 2, or 3 (Hetsroni classification). Patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores consisting of the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), and Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) were obtained preoperatively and at an average of 44 months postoperatively (range, 23-61 months). Exclusion criteria were Tönnis osteoarthritis grade >1 and a history of previous hip procedures. An age-, sex-, and body mass index-matched cohort of patients without dysplasia (LCEA, >25°) who underwent arthroscopic FAI surgery with a minimum 2-year follow-up were selected to serve as the control group. RESULTS: Eighteen patients, 19 hips (14 women and 4 men; average age, 28 years) were included. Of the 19 hips in the BDSI group, the average LCEA and alpha angle were 21.8° and 66.2°, respectively; 14 hips were Hestroni type 2, and 5 hips were type 1. There were no postoperative complications or additional procedures performed since the last follow-up. Repeated-measures analysis of variance revealed a significant improvement in all PRO scores from preoperatively to the last follow-up: mHHS, 64.7 to 87.7 (P < .001); HOS-ADL, 62.1 to 92.1 (P < .001); HOS-SSS, 26.5 to 87.1 (P < .001). An analysis of covariance revealed that patients with type 2 AIIS had a significantly higher postoperative mHHS than those with a type 1 morphology (88.3 and 95.6, respectively; P < .01) The BDSI group had a significantly lower preoperative HOS-SSS (26.5; P < .001) in comparison with the control group. However, there was no significant difference in postoperative outcome scores between groups. The BDSI group underwent significantly more microfracture, capsular plication, and ligamentum teres debridement (15.8%; P = .04). CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic AIIS decompression in patients with coexisting borderline dysplasia and subspinous impingement is a safe and effective method of treatment that produces outcomes comparable with those of a cohort with nondysplastic FAI.

The morphological characteristics associated with a diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) observed on plain radiographs can also be seen in subjects without hip joint symptoms. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether sclerotic lesions on femoral head-neck junction (FHNJ) could be used as a supplemental diagnostic feature. A total of 128 hips from 119 patients (43 male and 76 female) diagnosed with FAI and 24 hips from 21 patients (2 male and 19 female) with other hip pathologies as control were compared in this study. Using standing frog-leg plain radiographs, the prevalence of sclerotic lesions on the FHNJ was established. Additionally, the pixel intensity (PI) of the sclerotic lesions between the FAI and the control groups were quantitatively compared. Sclerotic lesions were present in 96.1% of FAI hips (123 of 128) and only 37.5% of control hips (9 of 24) (p < 0.05). The ratio of PI in the FAI group was significantly higher (approximately 10%) than in the control group (p < 0.05). The evaluation of sclerotic lesions may be used as a supplement to aid in the diagnosis of FAI.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown that assessment of the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) between 18° and 25° is not sufficient to adequately classify mildly dysplastic hips and that further radiological features should be considered. However, no correlation between different morphologic features and clinical outcomes has been investigated so far. PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical outcomes of patients with different subtypes of borderline dysplastic hips who underwent arthroscopic surgery. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We examined patients with an LCEA between 18° and 25° who underwent arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome between January 2015 and December 2016. A hierarchical cluster analysis was performed to identify hip morphologic subtypes according to radiographic parameters, including the LCEA, femoro-epiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index, anterior and posterior wall indices (AWI and PWI), Tönnis angle, alpha angle, and femoral neck-shaft angle. In addition, the International Hip Outcome Tool 12 (iHOT-12) and a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain were applied preoperatively and at follow-up, and the results were compared among the different clusters. Previously reported minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) values were used to determine clinically significant improvements. RESULTS: A total of 40 patients were identified. Of these, 36 patients were available for evaluation at a mean follow-up of 43.8 months. In total, 4 sex-independent clusters with different morphologic patterns of the hip were identified: cluster 1, unstable anterolateral deficiency (FEAR index >2°, AWI <0.35); cluster 2, stable anterolateral deficiency (FEAR index <2°, AWI <0.35); cluster 3, stable lateral deficiency (FEAR index >2°, normal AWI and PWI); and cluster 4, stable posterolateral deficiency (FEAR index <2°, PWI <0.85). At follow-up, clusters 1, 2, and 3 showed significantly improved iHOT-12 (P < .0001) and VAS pain (P < .0001) scores, and cluster 4 showed no significant improvements. The MCID of 15.2 points was achieved by all patients in clusters 2 and 3, by 63% of patients in cluster 1, and by 23% of patients in cluster 4. Clusters 2 and 3 differed significantly from clusters 1 and 4 (P = .02). A postoperative PASS score of 60 was achieved by all patients in cluster 3, by 86% of patients in cluster 2, by 63% of patients in cluster 1, and by 20% of patients in cluster 4. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (P = .01). CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic surgery yielded good results in the treatment of stable borderline hip dysplasia with anterolateral and lateral deficiency. In contrast, borderline hip dysplasia with acetabular retroversion showed no improvements after arthroscopic therapy. This study underlines the need for an accurate analysis of all possible radiological signs to adequately classify borderline dysplastic hips.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: There is a growing trend for hip arthroscopists to treat patients with borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) without addressing the acetabular coverage. However, the literature of outcomes and failure rates for these patients is conflicting. PURPOSE: (1) To identify whether patients with BHD achieved 2-year similar patient-reported outcome, minimal clinically important difference (MCID), and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) when compared with patients without BHD and (2) to identify predictors for achieving the MCID and PASS among patients with BHD who are undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with routine capsular closure for the treatment of FAIS between January 2012 and January 2017 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Patients with BHD (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA], 20°-25°) were matched 2:1 by age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) to control patients with normal acetabular coverage (LCEA, >25°-40°). Patient-reported outcome, MCID, and PASS were compared between the groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified significant predictors of achieving the MCID and PASS in the BHD group. RESULTS: The MCID in the BHD group was defined as 9.2, 13.7, 8.5, and 15.2 for the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living, Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific, modified Harris Hip Score, and iHOT-12, respectively. Threshold scores for achieving the PASS in both groups were 87.9, 76.4, 78.1, and 60.0. A total of 112 patients were identified as having BHD (LCEA, 20°-25°) and were matched to 224 controls. Both groups saw statistically significant increases in score averages over the 2-year period; however, the differences between them were not statistically significant (P > .05 for all). There was no statistical difference in the frequency of the BHD and non-BHD cohorts achieving the MCID on at least 1 threshold score (86.6% vs 85.6%, P = .837) and the PASS (78.6% vs 79.8%, P = .79). There was, however, a statistically significant difference between the rates of patients with and without BHD achieving the PASS on the modified Harris Hip Score threshold (62.5% vs 74.5%, P = .028). The final logistic models demonstrated that lower BMI (odds ratio [OR], 0.872; P = .029), lower preoperative alpha angle (OR, 0.965; P = .014), and female sex (OR, 3.647; P = .03) are independent preoperative predictors of achieving the MCID, while lower preoperative alpha angle (OR, 0.943; P = .018) and self-reported limp (OR, 18.53; P = .007) are independent preoperative predictors of achieving the PASS. CONCLUSION: Outcome improvements in patients with BHD who are undergoing arthroscopic treatment with capsular closure for FAIS are not significantly different from patients with normal acetabular coverage. Lower BMI, lower alpha angle, absence of limp, and female sex are preoperative predictors of achieving meaningful clinically significant outcome improvements in patients with BHD.

BACKGROUND: Appropriate patient selection is critical when hip arthroscopy is considered in the setting of borderline dysplasia (BD). It is presumable that excessive femoral anteversion (EFA) and BD may contraindicate arthroscopy. HYPOTHESIS: Patients with combined EFA and BD (EFABD) demonstrate significantly inferior short-term outcomes after arthroscopic labral preservation and capsular closure when compared with a similar control group with normal lateral coverage and femoral anteversion. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed on patients undergoing hip arthroscopy between April 2010 and November 2014. The EFABD group's inclusion criteria were BD (lateral center-edge angle, 18°-25°), labral tear, capsular closure, and femoral version ≥20°, as well as preoperative modified Harris Hip Score, Nonarthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale, and visual analog scale. Exclusion criteria were workers' compensation, preoperative Tönnis grade >1, microfracture, abductor pathology, or previous ipsilateral hip surgery or conditions. Patients in the EFABD group were matched 1:2 to a similar control group with normal coverage and femoral anteversion by age at surgery ± 6 years, sex, body mass index ± 5, acetabular Outerbridge grade (0, 1 vs 2, 3, 4), and iliopsoas fractional lengthening. RESULTS: Sixteen EFABD cases were eligible for inclusion, and 100% follow-up was obtained at ≥2 years postoperatively. Twelve EFABD cases were matched to 24 control cases. Mean femoral version was 22.4° in the EFABD group and 10.2° in the control group ( P = .01). Mean lateral center-edge angle was 22.1° in the EFABD group and 31.5° in the control group ( P < .0001). Acetabuloplasty was performed significantly more frequently in the control group ( P = .0006). No other significant differences were found regarding demographics, findings, procedures, or preoperative scores. At latest follow-up, the EFABD group demonstrated significantly lower mean modified Harris Hip Score (76.1 vs 85.9; P = .005), Nonarthritic Hip Score (74.8 vs 88.5; P < .0001), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale (58.3 vs 78.4; P = .02), and patient satisfaction (7.1 vs 8.3; P = .005). There were 4 secondary surgical procedures (33.3%) in the EFABD group and 1 (4.2%) in the control group ( P = .03). One patient in each group required arthroplasty. CONCLUSION: Patients treated with arthroscopic labral preservation and capsular closure in the setting of EFABD demonstrated significant improvements from presurgery to latest follow-up. However, their results are significantly inferior when compared with a matched-controlled group. Consideration of periacetabular osteotomy or femoral osteotomy may be warranted in the setting of EFABD to achieve optimal benefit.

PURPOSE: Hip arthroscopy has been considered for treating hip dysplasia; however, its efficacy is still a matter of controversy. Here, we report outcomes of patients with borderline dysplasia treated with a contemporary hip arthroscopy technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-seven hips with borderline hip dysplasia were treated using hip arthroscopy. Patients underwent procedures to correct torn labrums or ligamentum teres with additional procedure on the acetabular capsule. Patient outcomes were assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS) and patient satisfaction. Risk factors for poor prognosis were also investigated. RESULTS: The mean follow up period was 25.9 months. At the last follow up, mean VAS score decreased from 6.1±1.6 to 3.5±2.8 (P=0.016). The mHHS and NHAS at the last follow up improved from 61.0±7.6 to 78.6±19.5 (P=0.001) and 62.1±7.5 to 80.0±18.5 (P=0.002), respectively. While significant improvement was observed in all patient reported outcome measures tested, 19 (40.4%) hips indicated that "the operation was unsatisfactory." The only factor shown to influence outcomes was preoperative VAS (i.e., worse scores potentially an indicator of poor outcomes). CONCLUSION: The results of the current study indicate that arthroscopic management may be beneficial for a subset of patients with borderline dysplasia; however, the dissatisfaction rate associated with this treatment approach may be as high as 40%. The poor preoperative pain score appears to be the sole indicator for poor outcomes.
