Abstract
Background Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) can cause hip pain and chondrolabral damage that may be managed non-operatively or surgically. Squatting motions require large degrees of hip flexion and underpin many daily and sporting tasks but may cause hip impingement and provoke pain. Differential effects of physiotherapist-led care and arthroscopy on biomechanics during squatting have not been examined previously. This study explored differences in 12-month changes in kinematics and moments during squatting between patients with FAIS treated with a physiotherapist-led intervention (Personalised Hip Therapy, PHT) and arthroscopy. Methods A subsample (n = 36) of participants with FAIS enrolled in a multi-centre, pragmatic, two-arm superiority randomised controlled trial underwent three-dimensional motion analysis during squatting at baseline and 12-months following random allocation to PHT (n = 17) or arthroscopy (n = 19). Changes in time-series and peak trunk, pelvis, and hip biomechanics, and squat velocity and maximum depth were explored between treatment groups. Results No significant differences in 12-month changes were detected between PHT and arthroscopy groups. Compared to baseline, the arthroscopy group squatted slower at follow-up (descent: mean difference -0.04 m∙s-1 (95%CI [-0.09 to 0.01]); ascent: -0.05 m∙s-1 [-0.11 to 0.01]%). No differences in squat depth were detected between or within groups. After adjusting for speed, trunk flexion was greater in both treatment groups at follow-up compared to baseline (descent: PHT 7.50° [-14.02 to -0.98]%; ascent: PHT 7.29° [-14.69 to 0.12]%, arthroscopy 16.32° [-32.95 to 0.30]%). Compared to baseline, both treatment groups exhibited reduced anterior pelvic tilt (descent: PHT 8.30° [0.21-16.39]%, arthroscopy -10.95° [-5.54 to 16.34]%; ascent: PHT -7.98° [-0.38 to 16.35]%, arthroscopy -10.82° [3.82-17.81]%), hip flexion (descent: PHT -11.86° [1.67-22.05]%, arthroscopy -16.78° [8.55-22.01]%; ascent: PHT -12.86° [1.30-24.42]%, arthroscopy -16.53° [6.72-26.35]%), and knee flexion (descent: PHT -6.62° [0.56- 12.67]%; ascent: PHT -8.24° [2.38-14.10]%, arthroscopy -8.00° [-0.02 to 16.03]%). Compared to baseline, the PHT group exhibited more plantarflexion during squat ascent at follow-up (-3.58° [-0.12 to 7.29]%). Compared to baseline, both groups exhibited lower external hip flexion moments at follow-up (descent: PHT -0.55 N∙m/BW∙HT[%] [0.05-1.05]%, arthroscopy -0.84 N∙m/BW∙HT[%] [0.06-1.61]%; ascent: PHT -0.464 N∙m/BW∙HT[%] [-0.002 to 0.93]%, arthroscopy -0.90 N∙m/BW∙HT[%] [0.13-1.67]%). Conclusion Exploratory data suggest at 12-months follow-up, neither PHT or hip arthroscopy are superior at eliciting changes in trunk, pelvis, or lower-limb biomechanics. Both treatments may induce changes in kinematics and moments, however the implications of these changes are unknown.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a motion-related and position-related clinical condition of the hip associated with pain, reduced physical function and hip-related quality of life (QoL). Interestingly, higher maximal muscle strength is associated with less pain, better physical function and improved QoL in people with FAIS. Furthermore, preliminary evidence suggests that a proportion of patients with FAIS respond positively to strength exercise as first-line treatment. Nonetheless, there is little evidence supporting a specific exercise intervention offered as a first-line treatment. We will conduct a randomised controlled trial investigating the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a 6-month strength exercise intervention compared with usual care as first-line treatment in patients with FAIS. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a multicentre randomised controlled trial that will be conducted at hospitals and physiotherapy clinics across Denmark and Australia. A total of 120 patients with FAIS will be randomised (1:1) to 6 months of supervised strength exercise or usual care. The primary outcome is the change in hip-related QoL measured using the International Hip and Outcome Tool 33 (iHOT-33) from baseline to the end of intervention. A health economic evaluation will be conducted from a societal and healthcare perspective based on the data collection over a 12-month period starting at baseline. The analysis will calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios using quality-adjusted life-years and iHOT-33 scores while estimating costs using microcosting and cost questionnaires. Secondary outcomes include objectively measured physical function at baseline and after 6 months and patient-reported outcomes measured at baseline, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month follow-up. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial has been approved by the Committee on Health Research Ethics in the Central Denmark Region (journal no 1-10-72-45-23) and La Trobe University Human Ethics Committee (HEC24042) and is registered at the Central Denmark Region List of Research Projects (journal no 1-16-02-115-23). Informed consent will be obtained from each participant before randomisation. Results will be published in international peer-reviewed scientific journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05927935.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite focus on surgical preservation of the chondrolabral junction (CLJ), the transition zone between the acetabular cartilage and labrum, the association between severity of CLJ breakdown and functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy remains unexplored. PURPOSE To assess the influence of CLJ breakdown on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at a 24-month follow-up after hip arthroscopy for symptomatic labral tears. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A retrospective review of prospectively collected data was conducted to identify patients ≥18 years of age with a minimum 24-month follow-up who underwent hip arthroscopy by a single surgeon for the treatment of symptomatic labral tears secondary to femoroacetabular impingement. The Beck classification of transition zone cartilage was used to grade CLJ damage; patients with grades 0 to 2 were stratified into the mild CLJ damage cohort, and those with grades 3 and 4 were stratified into the severe CLJ damage cohort. PROMs were collected at baseline and at 3, 6, 12 months, and annually thereafter postoperatively. Linear mixed-effects models were used to compare PROMs. Rates of achieving clinically meaningful thresholds and subsequent surgery rates were also compared. RESULTS In total, 198 patients met the inclusion criteria, with a mean follow-up of 3.54 ± 1.26 years. A total of 95 patients with severe CLJ damage (mean age, 34.9 ± 10.5 years) were compared with 103 patients with mild CLJ damage (mean age, 38.2 ± 11.9 years). Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and visual analog score for pain were inferior in the severe CLJ group at enrollment and all follow-up time points (P≤ .05). However, patients with severe CLJ breakdown exhibited greater improvements in HOS-ADL and NAHS at the 24-month follow-up and achieved clinically meaningful thresholds at equivalent rates to patients with mild CLJ breakdown. Subsequent surgery rates were 6.8% and 12.6% in patients with mild versus severe CLJ damage, respectively (P = .250). CONCLUSION Severe CLJ breakdown is associated with increased pain and decreased functional level preoperatively and up to 24 months after hip arthroscopy. Despite this, patients with severe CLJ breakdown experienced greater improvements in functional outcomes at a 24-month follow-up and achieved clinical thresholds at similar rates to patients with mild CLJ damage. Thus, while worse baseline pain and functional levels may indicate severe CLJ breakdown, these patients still benefit substantially from hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to investigate whether cam and pincer deformities (CPDs) are a risk factor for patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) in women. In addition, it sought to compare the hip joint range of motion and the hip muscle strength of extremities with and without CPDs and PFPS. Materials and Methods A total of 82 hips of 41 women with PFPS were included in the study. The mean age of participants was 32.07 ± 7.13 years. The presence of CPDs was detected on digital anterior pelvis radiographs. Pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale, and function using the Kujala scoring system. Maximum isometric muscle strength around the hips was measured using a hand-held dynamometer. Hip joint range of movement angles were measured in all three planes using a universal goniometer. Results CPDs were found to predict PFPS in women (p = 0.011, p = 0.048). The rate of CPDs was significantly higher in extremities with PFPS compared to those without PFPS (p = 0.007). The Kujala scores of extremities with cam deformity were significantly lower than those of extremities without pincer deformity (p = 0.043). The internal/external muscle strength ratio was greater, and the abduction/adduction muscle strength ratio was lower in extremities with cam and PFPS than in those without (p = 0.040, p = 0.049). The external rotation and abduction range of movement angles were significantly smaller in extremities with pincer and PFPS compared to those without (p = 0.043, p = 0.035). Conclusion CPDs may be a structural predisposing factor in the development of PFPS in women. CPDs assessment when evaluating predisposing factors for PFPS may present an opportunity for the management of PFPS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unknown if football players with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome report worse burden than those with other causes of hip/groin pain, and to what extent this is mediated by cartilage defects and labral tears. HYPOTHESIS Football players with FAI syndrome would report worse burden than other symptomatic players, with the effect partially mediated by cartilage defects and/or labral tears. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4. METHODS Football (soccer and Australian football) players (n = 165; 35 women) with hip/groin pain (≥6 months and positive flexion-adduction-internal rotation test) were recruited. Participants completed 2 patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs; the International Hip Outcome Tool-33 [iHOT-33] and Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score [HAGOS]) and underwent hip radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). FAI syndrome was determined to be present when cam and/or pincer morphology were present. Cartilage defects and labral tears were graded as present or absent using MRI. Linear regression models investigated relationships between FAI syndrome (dichotomous independent variable) and PROM scores (dependent variables). Mediation analyses investigated the effect of cartilage defects and labral tears on these relationships. RESULTS FAI syndrome was not related to PROM scores (unadjusted b values ranged from -4.693 (P = 0.23) to 0.337 (P = 0.93)) and cartilage defects and/or labral tears did not mediate its effect (P = 0.22-0.97). CONCLUSION Football players with FAI syndrome did not report worse burden than those with other causes of hip/groin pain. Cartilage defects and/or labral tears did not explain the effect of FAI syndrome on reported burden. CLINICAL RELEVANCE FAI syndrome, cartilage defects, and labral tears were prevalent but unrelated to reported burden in symptomatic football players.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormal proximal femoral morphology in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) identifiable on the anteroposterior (AP) pelvic radiograph has been described as the "pistol grip" deformity. The effect of a superior cam deformity identified on this radiographic view remains unknown. PURPOSES To assess the relationship between AP cam deformity (AP alpha angle [AP AA] >55°) and cartilage injury; to assess the relationship between AP cam deformity and labral injury; and to determine if patient factors are correlated with cartilage and labral injury. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients undergoing osteochondroplasty and labral repair for FAIS with a single surgeon were identified retrospectively. Intraoperative size, location, and severity of cartilage and labral damage were prospectively collected. Chondrolabral and femoral/acetabular cartilage damage were graded with the Beck labral and cartilage injury criteria. Radiographic data included the AP AA, lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), and maximum femoral alpha angle (MF AA). Patients with hip dysplasia (LCEA <18°; LCEA 18°-25° with acetabular index >10°) were excluded. Outcomes were compared across cartilage and labral severity grades. We report odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals and P values from multivariable logistic regressions. RESULTS Of the 158 included hips (154 patients), 69% were female and the mean (± standard deviation [SD]) age was 30.3 ± 9.7 years. Increase in age, increase in body mass index (BMI), and male sex were associated with increasing severity of cartilage and labral injury. More severe cartilage damage was associated with increasing AP AA (P < .001) and MF AA (P < .001). The odds of developing a higher category of cartilage injury severity (grade ≥3) were 119% higher (OR, 2.19 [95% CI, 1.36-3.64]; P = .002) for every SD increase (16.7°) in AP AA, adjusting for age, sex, and BMI. The odds of developing a severe labral injury (grade ≥3) were 118% higher (OR, 2.18 [95% CI 1.17-4.32]; P = .018) for every SD increase (10.5°) in MF AA, adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and AP AA. CONCLUSION Increasing age and BMI, and male sex are associated with increasing severity of cartilage and labral injury in FAIS. The odds of developing a cartilage injury are significantly higher with independent increases in AP AA and MF AA.

A Finite-Element Modeling Study. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2022; 480:602-615. [PMID: 34766936 PMCID: PMC8846280 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 09/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals with cam morphology are prone to chondrolabral injuries that may progress to osteoarthritis. The mechanical factors responsible for the initiation and progression of chondrolabral injuries in these individuals are not well understood. Additionally, although labral repair is commonly performed during surgical correction of cam morphology, the isolated mechanical effect of labral repair on the labrum and surrounding cartilage is unknown. QUESTION/PURPOSES Using a volunteer-specific finite-element analysis, we asked: (1) How does cam morphology create a deleterious mechanical environment for articular cartilage (as evaluated by shear stress, tensile strain, contact pressure, and fluid pressure) that could increase the risk of cartilage damage compared with a radiographically normal hip? (2) How does chondrolabral damage, specifically delamination, delamination with rupture of the chondrolabral junction, and the presence of a chondral defect, alter the mechanical environment around the damage? (3) How does labral repair affect the mechanical environment in the context of the aforementioned chondrolabral damage scenarios? METHODS The mechanical conditions of a representative hip with normal bony morphology (characterized by an alpha angle of 37°) and one with cam morphology (characterized by an alpha angle of 78°) were evaluated using finite-element models that included volunteer-specific anatomy and kinematics. The bone, cartilage, and labrum geometry for the hip models were collected from two volunteers matched by age (25 years with cam morphology and 23 years with normal morphology), BMI (both 24 kg/m2), and sex (both male). Volunteer-specific kinematics for gait were used to drive the finite-element models in combination with joint reaction forces. Constitutive material models were assigned to the cartilage and labrum, which simulate a physiologically realistic material response, including the time-dependent response from fluid flow through the cartilage, and spatially varied response from collagen fibril reinforcement. For the cam hip, three models were created to represent chondrolabral damage conditions: (1) "delamination," with the acetabular cartilage separated from the bone in one region; (2) "delamination with chondrolabral junction (CLJ) rupture," which includes separation of the cartilage from the labrum tissue; and (3) a full-thickness chondral defect, referred to throughout as "defect," where the acetabular cartilage has degraded so there is a void. Each of the three conditions was modeled with a labral tear and with the labrum repaired. The size and location of the damage conditions simulated in the cartilage and labrum were attained from reported clinical prevalence of the location of these injuries. For each damage condition, the contact area, contact pressure, tensile strain, shear stress, and fluid pressure were predicted during gait and compared. RESULTS The cartilage in the hip with cam morphology experienced higher stresses and strains than the normal hip. The peak level of tensile strain (25%) and shear stress (11 MPa) experienced by the cam hip may exceed stable conditions and initiate damage or degradation. The cam hip with simulated damage experienced more evenly distributed contact pressure than the intact cam hip, as well as decreased tensile strain, shear stress, and fluid pressure. The peak levels of tensile strain (15% to 16%) and shear stress (2.5 to 2.7 MPa) for cam hips with simulated damage may be at stable magnitudes. Labral repair only marginally affected the overall stress and strain within the cartilage, but it increased local tensile strain in the cartilage near the chondrolabral junction in the hip with delamination and increased the peak tensile strain and shear stress on the labrum. CONCLUSION This finite-element modeling pilot study suggests that cam morphology may predispose hip articular cartilage to injury because of high shear stress; however, the presence of simulated damage distributed the loading more evenly and the magnitude of stress and strain decreased throughout the cartilage. The locations of the peak values also shifted posteriorly. Additionally, in hips with cam morphology, isolated labral repair in the hip with a delamination injury increased localized strain in the cartilage near the chondrolabral junction. CLINICAL RELEVANCE In a hip with cam morphology, labral repair alone may not protect the cartilage from damage because of mechanical overload during the low-flexion, weightbearing positions experienced during gait. The predicted findings of redistribution of stress and strain from damage in the cam hip may, in some cases, relieve disposition to damage progression. Additional studies should include volunteers with varied acetabular morphology, such as borderline dysplasia with cam morphology or pincer deformity, to analyze the effect on the conclusions presented in the current study. Further, future studies should evaluate the combined effects of osteochondroplasty and chondrolabral treatment.

Effect of Simulated Changes in Pelvic Tilt on Hip Joint Forces. J Biomech 2022; 135:111048. [PMID: 35325751 PMCID: PMC9255277 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2022.111048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Musculoskeletal modeling is commonly used to simulate and compare various movements between individuals. For conditions such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), individuals tend to walk with more anterior pelvic tilt than those without FAIS. However, it is unknown whether accounting for pelvic tilt in musculoskeletal modeling would lead to a change in muscle forces and in turn, joint forces. Gait data of six individuals were collected and processed using Vicon and Visual3D. Each participant's pelvic tilt was adjusted by ± 10° at all time points during gait. Three analyses were performed per individual: no adjustment in tilt, one posterior (positive) tilt, and one anterior (negative) tilt. The resulting data were imported into OpenSim to determine muscle forces and the resulting femur-on-acetabulum (hip joint) forces in the pelvic and femoral reference frames. Data for each participant were normalized for gait cycle and body weight in MATLAB, and statistical parametric mapping was used to determine if the differences in joint and muscle forces were significant across different pelvic orientations. Shifting from posterior to anterior pelvic tilt reduced resultant forces. In the pelvic reference frame, anteriorly-directed joint forces decreased, while medially-directed forces increased. In the femoral reference frame, anteriorly- and medially-directed joint forces increased, while superiorly-directed forces decreased. Anterior gluteus medius and iliacus muscle forces decreased, while quadratus femoris, piriformis, and gemellus muscle forces increased. Given these results, future studies using musculoskeletal modeling should account for pelvic tilt in musculoskeletal models to obtain more realistic comparisons between healthy and pathological conditions.

Cam morphology is associated with MRI-defined cartilage defects and labral tears: a case-control study of 237 young adult football players with and without hip and groin pain. BMJ Open Sport Exerc Med 2022; 7:e001199.

Abstract
Objective Football players are at risk of developing hip osteoarthritis (OA). Cam morphology (present in almost two of every three football players) may explain this heightened risk, but there is limited research on its role in hip OA development in younger athletes. Knowledge of this relationship will advance our understanding of the aetiology of hip OA in football players. We aimed to study the relationship between cam morphology size and MRI-defined cartilage defects and labral tears, and if this relationship differs by symptomatic state in young adult football players. Methods For this case–control study, 182 (288 hips) symptomatic (hip and/or groin pain >6 months and positive flexion-adduction-internal-rotation (FADIR) test) and 55 (110 hips) pain-free football players (soccer or Australian football) underwent anteroposterior and Dunn 45° radiographs, and 3-Tesla MRI. Cam morphology size was defined using alpha angle, and cartilage defects and labral tears were scored semiquantitatively. Presence, location and score (severity) of cartilage defects and labral tears were determined. Each participant completed the International Hip Outcome Tool 33 and Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score. Results Greater alpha angle was associated with cartilage defects (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.04) and labral tears (OR 1.02, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.04). Greater alpha angle was associated with superolateral cartilage defects (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.05) and superior labral tears (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.05). The association of alpha angle with MRI-defined cartilage defects and labral tears was no greater in football players with symptoms than in those without (p=0.189–0.937) Conclusion Cam morphology size was associated with cartilage defects and labral tears in young adult football players with and without pain. This study provides evidence that cam morphology may contribute to the high prevalence of hip OA in football players. Prospective studies of football players are now needed to establish if cam morphology causes progression of cartilage defects and labral tears and development of hip OA.

[PMID: 33307354 PMCID: PMC10714355 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2020.110143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2020] [Revised: 10/04/2020] [Accepted: 11/12/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
Distribution of strain through the thickness of articular cartilage, or transchondral strain, is highly dependent on the geometry of the joint involved. Excessive transchondral strain can damage the solid matrix and ultimately lead to osteoarthritis. Currently, high-resolution transchondral strain distribution is unknown in the human hip. Thus, knowledge of transchondral strain patterns is of fundamental importance to interpreting the patterns of injury that occur in prearthritic hip joints. This study had three main objectives. We sought to 1) quantify high-resolution transchondral strain in the native human hip, 2) determine differences in transchondral strain between static and dynamic loading conditions to better understand recovery and repressurization of cartilage in the hip, and 3) create finite element (FE) models of the experimental testing to validate a modeling framework for future analysis. The transchondral strain patterns found in this study provide insight on the localization of strain within cartilage of the hip. Most notably, the chondrolabral junction experienced high tensile and shear strain across all samples, which explains clinical data reporting it as the most common region of damage in cartilage of the hip. Further, the representative FE framework was able to match the experimental static results and predict the dynamic results with very good agreement. This agreement provides confidence for both experimental and computational measurement methods and demonstrates that the specific anisotropic biphasic FE framework used in this study can both describe and predict the experimental results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with hip pathology, such as femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) or hip dysplasia, are known to sustain chondral delamination injuries identifiable during hip arthroscopy, with an incidence of 44% to 75%. There are studies focused on understanding acetabular chondral flap viability, but there is a dearth of research regarding the viability of femoral head cartilage overlying the cam deformity in FAI. PURPOSE To describe the viability and immunohistochemistry staining patterns of femoral head cartilage in the setting of FAI. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. METHODS Between September 2018 and August 2019, a single surgeon prospectively collected full-thickness femoral cartilage from cam deformities in 14 patients with FAI undergoing osteoplasty. Samples were assessed for viability and underwent immunohistochemistry staining for collagen type I, collagen type II, and aggrecan. RESULTS The data set included 14 patients. Twelve samples were assessed for viability and 14 for immunohistochemistry straining. The mean patient age was 34.1 years, and the mean body mass index was 24.69. Mean ± SD chondrocyte viability per patient was 52% ± 11%. At the time of cell isolation, 8 of the 12 patients had viability >50%, with a maximum of 68.2%. This viability increased after a primary culture period, varying from 9 to 13 days, with 10 of 12 samples having viability >90%. The viability mean after the culture period was 94.54% ± 4.89%. Harvested cartilage showed expressions of type I cartilage, type II collagen, and aggrecan in a pattern that is predictable for native cartilage. CONCLUSION These data reveal that the cartilage in femoral head cartilage overlying cam deformity-much like that from acetabular chondral flaps-not only has baseline viability >50% (51.99% ± 10.83%) but the ability to increase in viability >90% after a culture period. There may be a role for use of femoral head cartilage as autograft to repair full-thickness cartilage defects of the acetabulum and femoral head, either at the time of osteochondroplasty or after a period of cell culture to improve cell viability. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A dearth of information is available regarding the viability of femoral head cartilage. This study provides insight into the cartilage viability and response to culture.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To undertake a systematic review of the morphologic features associated with hip microinstability and determine whether there are suggestive or diagnostic imaging findings. METHODS Four electronic databases were searched up to September 2019 to identify original research reporting morphologic features in individuals with either a clinical diagnosis of hip microinstability (instability without overt subluxation/dislocation) or those with symptomatic laxity demonstrated on imaging (increased femoral head translation/distraction or capsular volume). Studies focussing on individuals with pre-existing hip conditions (including definite dysplasia (lateral centre edge angle < 20°), significant trauma, previous dislocation or surgery were excluded. Methodological quality was assessed by the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 tool. RESULTS Twenty-two studies met inclusion criteria (clinical diagnosis of microinstability n = 15 and demonstration of laxity n = 7). Imaging information gathered from the studies includes radiographs (n = 14), MRI (n = 6), MR arthrography (n = 4), CT (n = 1) and intraoperative examination. Most studies exhibited design features associated with an overall high or unclear risk of bias. Some dysplastic features are associated with microinstability or laxity reference measures; however, microinstability is frequently diagnosed in those with a lateral centre edge angle > 25°. Other associated imaging findings reported include impingement morphology, anterior labral tearing, femoral head chondral injury, ligamentum teres tears and capsular attenuation. CONCLUSIONS The current literature does not provide strong evidence for imaging features diagnostic of microinstability. In the appropriate clinical context, dysplastic morphology, anterior labral tears and ligamentum teres tears may be suggestive of this condition although further research is needed to confirm this.

Abstract
Chondral defects of the acetabulum in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome are an increasingly recognized cause of worse outcomes after treatment. Multiple procedures have been described for the treatment of hip cartilage lesions including microfracture, autologous chondrocyte implantation, matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation, and autograft and allograft transplantation. However, many of these techniques have poor long-term outcomes, require multiple surgical procedures, or rely on planned preoperative identification of the chondral lesion. This Technical Note describes our technique of autologous matrix-enhanced chondral transplantation, a single-stage treatment for acetabular cartilage lesions that harvests chondral tissue from the femoral cam deformity and combines it with chondral extracellular matrix, growth factors, and autologous peripheral blood.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Moderate to severe (grade 3-4) hip joint cartilage injury seems to impair function in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. PURPOSE To investigate whether demographic and radiographic factors were associated with moderate to severe hip joint cartilage injury. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients were identified in the Danish Hip Arthroscopy Registry. The outcome variables were acetabular cartilage injury (modified Beck grade 0-2 vs 3-4) and femoral head cartilage injury (International Cartilage Repair Society grade 0-2 vs 3-4). Logistic regressions assessed the association with the following: age (<30 vs 30-50 years); sex; sport activity level (Hip Sports Activity Scale); alpha angle (AA) assessed as normal (AA <55°), cam (55°≤ AA <78°), or severe cam (AA ≥78°); lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) assessed as normal (25°≤ LCEA ≤ 39°), pincer (LCEA >39°), or borderline dysplasia (LCEA <25°); joint space width (JSW) assessed as normal (JSW >4.0 mm), mild reduction (3.1 mm ≤ JSW ≤ 4.0 mm), or severe reduction (2.1 mm ≤ JSW ≤ 3.0 mm). RESULTS A total of 1511 patients were included (mean ± SD age: 34.9 ± 9.8 years). Male sex (odds ratio [OR], 4.42), higher age (OR, 1.70), increased AA (cam: OR, 2.23; severe cam: OR, 4.82), and reduced JSW (mild: OR, 2.04; severe: OR, 3.19) were associated (P < .05) with Beck grade 3-4. Higher age (OR, 1.92), increased Hip Sports Activity Scale (OR, 1.13), borderline dysplasia (OR, 3.08), and reduced JSW (mild: OR, 2.63; severe: OR, 3.04) were associated (P < .05) with International Cartilage Repair Society grade 3-4. CONCLUSION Several demographic and radiographic factors were associated with moderate to severe hip joint cartilage injury. Most notably, increased cam severity and borderline dysplasia substantially increased the risk of grade 3-4 acetabular and femoral head cartilage injury, respectively, indicating that specific deformity may drive specific cartilage injury patterns in the hip joint.
