Abstract
BACKGROUND During the early evolution of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) treatment, undercorrection of femoral deformity was a leading cause of hip arthroscopy failures. As the pendulum has swung, overresection of femoral deformity has increased in prevalence as a cause of persistent hip pain after arthroscopy. Computed tomography (CT) scans are increasingly being used in hip arthroscopy for preoperative planning purposes and may allow for improved 3-dimensional (3D) assessment of complex femoral deformities after previous femoroplasty. PURPOSE To assess whether CT scans provide additional utility over standard radiographs in understanding proximal femoral morphology in patients being evaluated for revision hip arthroscopy after previous femoroplasty in the setting of FAI. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study (Diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Preoperative CT scans and standard radiographs were obtained in 80 patients who underwent revision hip arthroscopy for FAI. The anteroposterior and Dunn radiographic views were used to assess patients for residual proximal femoral deformity and were compared with the CT scan views using a commercially available software program. Determinations of underresection were made using alpha angle, while overresection was determined according to a previously described technique. Chi-square tests were performed to determine statistical significance between radiographic and CT classifications of overresection, underresection, and concomitant over- and underresection. A kappa value was calculated to determine the agreement between measurements on the radiographs and CT scans. RESULTS There were 30 patients (37.5%) for whom the CT scans revealed information about femoral morphology that was not detected on the radiographs. The kappa value of agreement was 0.28 between CT and radiographic measurements. Underresected cams were detected in 30 patients (37.5%) on CT scans versus 17 patients (21.3%) on radiographs (P = .024). Overresected cams were detected in 31 patients (38.8%) on CT scans versus 14 patients (17.5%) on radiographs (P = .0049). Concomitant areas of under- and overresection were detected in 12 patients (15.0%) on CT scans versus 3 patients (3.8%) on radiographs (P = .027). CONCLUSION CT scans with 3D planning software may be more sensitive than traditional radiographic views at detecting aberrant proximal femoral anatomy in the setting of failed FAI surgery. The use of 3D planning software may be considered as an adjunctive tool to better understand complex deformity in the proximal femur for the planning of revision hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Borderline acetabular dysplasia is commonly radiographically defined as a lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) of 20° to 25°. While the variability of plain radiographic assessment of this population has been reported, an understanding of the variability of 3-dimensional (3D) hip morphology remains to be better defined. PURPOSE To investigate the variability of 3D hip morphology present on low-dose computed tomography (CT) in the setting of symptomatic borderline acetabular dysplasia and to determine if plain radiographic parameters correlate with 3D coverage. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 2. METHODS A total of 70 consecutive hips with borderline acetabular dysplasia undergoing hip preservation surgery were included in the current study. Plain radiographic evaluation included LCEA, acetabular inclination, anterior center-edge angle (ACEA), anterior wall index (AWI), posterior wall index (PWI), and alpha angles on anteroposterior, 45° Dunn, and frog-leg views. All patients underwent low-dose pelvic CT for preoperative planning, which allowed detailed characterization of 3D morphology relative to normative data. Acetabular morphology was assessed with radial acetabular coverage (RAC) calculated according to standardized clockface positions from 8:00 (posterior) to 4:00 (anterior). Coverages at 10:00, 12:00, and 2:00 were classified as normal, undercoverage, or overcoverage relative to 1 SD from the mean of normative RAC values. Femoral morphology was assessed with femoral version, alpha angle (measured at 1:00 increments), and maximum alpha angle. Correlation was assessed with the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). RESULTS Lateral coverage (12:00 RAC) was deficient in 74.1% of hips with borderline dysplasia. Anterior coverage (2:00 RAC) was highly variable, with 17.1% undercoverage, 72.9% normal, and 10.0% overcoverage. Posterior coverage (10:00 RAC) was also highly variable, with 30.0% undercoverage, 62.9% normal, and 7.1% overcoverage. The 3 most common patterns of coverage were isolated lateral undercoverage (31.4%), normal coverage (18.6%), and combined lateral and posterior undercoverage (17.1%). The mean femoral version was 19.7°± 10.6° (range, -4° to 59°), with 47.1% of hips having increased femoral version (>20°). The mean maximum alpha angle was 57.2° (range, 43°-81°), with 48.6% of hips having an alpha angle ≥ 55°. The ACEA and AWI were poorly correlated with radial anterior coverage (r = 0.059 and 0.311, respectively), while the PWI was strongly correlated with radial posterior coverage (r = 0.774). CONCLUSION Patients with borderline acetabular dysplasia demonstrate highly variable 3D deformities, including anterior, lateral, and posterior acetabular coverage; femoral version; and alpha angle. Plain radiographic assessments of anterior coverage are poorly correlated with anterior 3D coverage on low-dose CT.

Abstract
AIMS Frequency of abnormal femoral and acetabular version (AV) and combinations are unclear in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). This study aimed to investigate femoral version (FV), the proportion of increased FV and femoral retroversion, and combined-version (CV, FV+AV) in DDH patients and acetabular-retroversion (AR). PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective IRB-approved observational study was performed with 78 symptomatic DDH patients (90 hips) and 65 patients with femoroacetabular-impingement (FAI) due to AR (77 hips, diagnosis on AP radiographs). CT/MRI-based measurement of FV (Murphy method) and central AV were compared. Frequency of increased FV(FV > 25°), severely increased FV (FV > 35°) and excessive FV (FV > 45°) and of decreased FV (FV < 10°) and CV (McKibbin-index/COTAV-index) was analysed. RESULTS Mean FV and CV was significantly (p < 0.001) increased of DDH patients (mean ± SD of 25 ± 11° and 47 ± 18°) compared to AR (16 ± 11° and 28 ± 13°). Mean FV of female DDH patients (27 ± 16°) and AR (19 ± 12°) was significantly (p < 0.001) increased compared to male DDH patients (18 ± 13°) and AR (13 ± 8°). Frequency of increased FV (>25°) was 47% and of severely increased FV (>35°) was 23% for DDH patients. Proportion of femoral retroversion (FV < 10°) was significantly (p < 0.001) higher in patients AR (31%) compared to DDH patients (17%). 18% of DDH patients had AV > 25° combined with FV > 25°. Of patients with AR, 12% had FV < 10° combined with AV < 10°. CONCLUSION Patients with DDH and AR have remarkable sex-related differences of FV and CV. Frequency of severely increased FV > 35° (23%) is considerable for patients with DDH, but 17% exhibited decreased FV, that could influence management. The different combinations underline the importance of patient-specific evaluation before open hip preservation surgery (periacetabular osteotomy and femoral derotation osteotomy) and hip-arthroscopy.

Abstract
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common femoral and/or acetabular abnormality that can cause progressive damage to the hip and osteoarthritis. FAI can be the result of femoral head/neck overgrowth, acetabular overgrowth or both femoral and acetabular abnormalities, resulting in a loss of native hip biomechanics and pain upon hip flexion and rotation. Radiographic evidence can include loss of sphericity of the femoral neck (cam impingement) and/or acetabular retroversion with focal or global overcoverage (pincer impingement). Operative intervention is indicated in symptomatic patients after failed conservative management with radiographic evidence of impingement and minimal arthritic changes of the hip, with the goal of restoring normal hip biomechanics and reducing pain. This is done by correcting the femoral head-neck relationship to the acetabulum through femoral and/or acetabular osteoplasty and treatment of concomitant hip pathology. In pincer impingement cases with small lunate surfaces, reverse periacetabular osteotomy is indicated as acetabular osteoplasty can decrease an already small articular surface. While surgical dislocation is regarded as the traditional gold standard, hip arthroscopy has become widely utilized in recent years. Studies comparing both open surgery and arthroscopy have shown comparable long-term pain reduction and improvements in clinical measures of hip function, as well as similar conversion rates to total hip arthroplasty. However, arthroscopy has trended toward earlier improvement, quicker recovery and faster return to sports. The purpose of this study was to review the recent literature on open and arthroscopic management of FAI.

Arthroscopic Femoral and Acetabular Osteoplasties Alter the In Vivo Hip Kinematics of Patients With Femoroacetabular Impingement. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2022; 4:e1961-e1968. [PMID: 36579041 PMCID: PMC9791873 DOI: 10.1016/j.asmr.2022.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2019] [Accepted: 08/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Three-dimensional (3D)-two-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopic image registration was used to measure 3D hip kinematics before and after hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Methods In total, 24 subjects diagnosed with FAI (21 unilateral, 3 bilateral) were prospectively recruited. A clinical impingement test was performed on both hips while the patient was awake and then while anaesthetized, and in the operative hip after arthroscopic osteoplasties and labral repair. Fluoroscopy was used to image the hip during the impingement tests. Images were analyzed using 3D-2D image registration to calculate joint kinematics. The examiner's hand was instrumented with a glove to measure internal rotation torque applied to the hip during each test. Results Internal rotation increased by 3.7° (standard error [SE] 0.95°) after surgery (P = .001). Maximum displacement of the femoral head out of the acetabulum was 4.0 mm (SE 0.5 mm) in the operative group before surgery and 1.8 mm (SE 0.3 mm) after surgery (P < .001). This was due to a decrease in lateral displacement by 1.3 mm (SE 0.4 mm, P = .002) and proximal displacement by 0.8 mm (SE 0.3 mm, P = .013). Internal rotation torque was greater in the operative hips when anaesthetized compared with when awake, by 5 Nm (SE 1.2 Nm, P < .001), and greater in the contralateral hips than the operative hips when awake by 8.4 Nm (SE 1.4 mm, P < .001). Conclusions Arthroscopic osteoplasty and labral repair increased hip range of motion and reduced femoral head displacement from the acetabulum during the IR90 provocation test (i.e., hip flexion to 90°, maximum internal rotation) in patients with FAI. This suggests that the impinging acetabular rim acted as a fulcrum before surgery and may have caused edge loading that was reduced after surgery. Level of Evidence Level IV case series, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Normal anatomical variants and pathological deformities of the pediatric hip can only be differentiated after a prior definition of normal ranges for anthropometric parameters with increasing age. Aim of the present study was to provide reliable reference values of the pediatric hip morphometry, using computed tomography (CT)-based rotation-corrected summation images of the pelvis that simulate the widely available plain radiograph-based measurements, but offer the higher precision of the CT technique. This retrospective study included 85 patients (170 hips) under 15 years of age (0-15). The measured anthropometric parameters included femur head extrusion index, lateral center-edge angle, acetabular inclination, Tönnis angle, and femoral neck-shaft angle. Mean values, range, SD, P values, intra-rater, and inter-rater reliability were calculated. All measurements correlated with age. None of the measurements correlated with gender or side. Rapid growth phases were noted in all measurements at the age of 12 (14 in males and 11 in females). The inter-rater and intra-rater reliability was high (range inter/intraclass correlation coefficient 0.926-0.998 Cronbach's alpha 0.986-0.998). The present work provides age- and gender-related normative values of the classically used hip measurements as well as growth phases describing pediatric hip morphology in a broad age range. A discrepancy was noted between the values measured in the current study and the classical X-ray-based reference values in the literature especially for the Tönnis angle and LCEA values. This suggests that the rotation and inclination correction in the CT-based techniques might have the advantage of compensating for a possible overestimation in the conventional X-ray-based methods.

Abstract
The key element for differentiation between normal anatomical variants and pathological deformities is the prior definition of normal ranges for anthropometric parameters of acetabulum according to each age group. Aim of the present study is to analyze the development of the acetabulum in children/adolescents by accurate anthropometric measurements using 3D-CT scans and determine the variations occurring depending on age, gender and/or side. This retrospective observational study included 85 patients (170 hips) under 15 years of age (0-15) undergoing 1.5mm CT scanning for non-hip related reasons. The measurements were performed by 2 board-certified orthopaedic surgeons. Each year of life represented an age group forming a total of 16 groups. Median number of patients per age group was 12 (range 4-16). The anthropometric parameters included acetabular volume, inclination, version, depth (coronal and axial), width (coronal and axial), Tönnis angle as well as anterior and posterior acetabular sector angles. Mean values, range, standard deviation, p-values, intra- and interrater reliability were calculated. All measurement values correlated significantly with age. Statistically, there was no side or gender related difference. Rapid growth phases were observed at the age of 11-12. The inter- and intrarater reliability was high (range ICC 0.8-0.99, Cronbach alpha 0.86-0.99, Bland-Altman good agreement). The present data provides age- and gender-related normative values as well as growth phases describing acetabular morphology. It should help paediatricians as well as paediatric and orthopaedic surgeons as a tool for early diagnosis of deformity and guidance for possible procedures.

Abstract
Background Accurate assessment of osseous morphology is imperative in the evaluation of patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and hip dysplasia. Through use of computed tomography (CT), 3-dimensional (3D) reconstructed hip models may provide a more precise measurement for overcoverage and undercoverage and aid in the interpretation of 2-dimensional radiographs obtained in the clinical setting. Purpose To describe new measures of acetabular coverage based on 3D-reconstructed CT scan bone models. Study Design Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods Preoperative CT scans were acquired on the bilateral hips and pelvises of 30 patients before arthroscopic surgical intervention for FAIS. Custom software was used for semiautomated segmentation to generate 3D osseous models of the femur and acetabulum that were aligned to a standard coordinate system. This software calculated percentage of total acetabular coverage, which was defined as the surface area projected onto the superior aspect of the femoral head. The percentage of coverage was also quantified regionally in the anteromedial, anterolateral, posteromedial, and posterolateral quadrants of the femoral head. The acetabular clockface was established by defining 6 o'clock as the inferior aspect of the acetabular notch. Radial coverage was then calculated along the clockface from the 9-o'clock to 5-o'clock positions. Results The study included 20 female and 10 male patients with a mean age of 33.6 ± 11.7 years and mean body mass index of 27.8 ± 6.3. The average percentage of total acetabular coverage for the sample was 57% ± 6%. Acetabular coverages by region were as follows: anteromedial, 78% ± 7%; anterolateral, 18% ± 7%, posterolateral, 33% ± 13%, and posteromedial, 99% ± 1%. The acetabular coverage ranged from 23% to 69% along the radial clockface from 9 to 5 o'clock. Conclusion This study demonstrated new 3D measurements to characterize acetabular coverage in patients with FAIS and elucidated the distribution of acetabular coverage according to these measurements.

Abstract
Purpose Defining normal anthropometric ranges of proximal femur and femoral head for each age group in children/adolescents is a necessity when differentiating normal anatomical variants from pathological deformities. Aim of this study is to define a set of normal anthropometric parameters based on 3D-CT measurements in normal asymptomatic children/adolescents and analyse the variations arising depending on age, side, and/or gender. Methods Morphology of the proximal femur was retrospectively assessed in 170 hips (85 children, < 15 years). Measurements included covered femoral head volume (CFHV), femoral head diameter (FHD), femoral head extrusion index (FHEI), coronal alpha angle (CAA), lateral centre-edge angle (LCEA), anterior (AOS) and posterior head-neck offset (POS) and femoral neck-shaft angle (FNSA). Correlation analyses as well as inter- and intra-rater reliability were performed. Results CFHV, LCEA, FHD and AOS/POS increased with age and FHEI, CAA, and FNSA decreased with age. None of the measurements correlated with the side. AOS showed a poor correlation with gender. Rapid growth phases were observed at the age of 1, 7 and 11. The inter- and intra-rater reliability was high (range ICC 0.8–0.99 Cronbach alpha 0.86–0.99). Conclusion This data delivers a description of growth phases as well as gender and age-correlated reference values of the proximal femoral morphology that could be used by paediatricians and orthopaedic/paediatric surgeons to early diagnose proximal femur deformities and provide guidance in the planning of possible operations.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare measurements of anterior wall index (AWI) and posterior wall index (PWI) on computed tomography (CT) to those on radiographs (XR). A consecutive cohort of 33 patients (45 hips total) being evaluated for hip pain with both XR and CT was examined. Preoperative measurements of AWI and PWI were performed utilizing supine anteroposterior pelvic XR and coronal and swiss axial CT scans by two independent raters. Mean differences between XR and CT measurements were compared, and agreement between measurements was assessed using the concordance correlation coefficient (rc) and Bland–Altman analysis. A total of 39 hips in 28 patients were analyzed. The mean patient age was 31.1 ± 9.0 years, and 50% were female. Mean AWI and PWI on XR was 0.50 ± 0.14 and 0.91 ± 0.12, respectively. Measured values of AWI were consistently larger (0.08 ± 0.10, P < 0.01) on XR compared with both coronal and swiss axial CT, with moderate agreement between XR and CT measurements (rc = 0.68–0.70). Measured values of PWI were consistently smaller (0.15 ± 0.12, P < 0.05) on XR compared with both coronal and swiss axial CT, with poor agreement between XR and CT measurements (rc = 0.37–0.45). Measured values of acetabular wall indices on XR were consistently larger for AWI and smaller for PWI relative to CT. Agreement between XR and CT measures of the indices were moderate to poor. This highlights the need for standardization of XR- and CT-based measurements to improve assessment of acetabular coverage and subsequent clinical decision-making.

Abstract
Computed tomography (CT) is most commonly used to produce three-dimensional (3D) models for evaluating bone and joint morphology in clinical practice. However, 3D models created from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data can be equally effective for comprehensive and accurate assessment of osseous and soft tissue structure morphology and pathology. The quality of 3D MRI models has steadily increased over time, with growing potential to replace 3D CT models in various musculoskeletal (MSK) applications. In practice, a single MRI examination for two-dimensional and 3D assessments can increase the value of MRI and simplify the pre- and postoperative imaging work-up. Multiple studies have shown excellent performance of 3D MRI models in shoulder injuries, in the hip in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement, and in the knee for the creation of bone surface models. Therefore, the utility of 3D MRI postprocessed models is expected to continue to rise and broaden in applications. Computer-based and artificial intelligence-assisted postprocessing techniques have tremendous potential to improve the efficiency of 3D model creation, opening many research avenues to validate the applicability of 3D MRI and establish 3D-specific quantitative assessment criteria. We provide a practice-focused overview of 3D MRI acquisition strategies, postprocessing techniques for 3D model creation, MSK applications of 3D MRI models, and an illustration of cases from our daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Several hip and knee pathologies are associated with aberrant femoral torsion. Diagnostic workup includes computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). For three-dimensional (3D) analysis of complex deformities it would be desirable to measure femoral torsion from MRI data to avoid ionizing radiation of CT in a young patient population. 3D measurement of femoral torsion from MRI has not yet been compared to measurements from CT images. We hypothesize that agreement will exist between MRI and CT 3D measurements of femoral torsion. Methods CT and MRI data from 29 hips of 15 patients with routine diagnostic workup for suspected femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) were used to generate 3D bone models. 3D measurement of femoral torsion was performed by two independent readers using the method of Kim et al. which is validated for CT. Inter-modalitiy and inter-reader intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were calculated. Results Between MRI and CT 3D measurements an ICC of 0.950 (0.898; 0.976) (reader 1) respectively 0.950 (0.897; 0.976) (Reader 2) was found. The ICC (95% CI) expressing the inter-reader reliability for both modalities was 0.945 (0.886; 0.973) for MRI and 0.957 (0.910; 0.979) for CT, respectively. Mean difference between CT and MRI measurement was 0.42° (MRI – CT, SD: 2.77°, p = 0.253). Conclusions There was consistency between 3D measurements of femoral torsion between computer rendered MRI images compared to measurements with the “gold standard” of CT images. ICC for inter-modality and inter-reader consistency indicate excellent reliability. Accurate, reliable and reproducible 3D measurement of femoral torsion is possible from MRI images.

Abstract
» Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is one of the most common causes of early hip articular cartilage wear and labral damage, and subsequently leads to the onset of hip osteoarthritis. » Cam-type FAI impingement lesions can be best identified with a 90° Dunn lateral radiograph and a cross-table lateral radiograph with 15° of internal rotation; the alpha angle and the femoral head-neck offset are the most used predictive radiographic markers. » FAI lesions with pincer impingement are associated with acetabular retroversion and are more difficult to identify on traditional radiographic imaging; however, the presence of a crossover sign, an ischial spine sign, and/or a posterior wall sign can be useful radiographic markers. » Advanced imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA) can also be beneficial in the evaluation of FAI and labral pathology; MRA is more sensitive than MRI in detecting intra-articular pathology. » Computer-assisted navigation for preoperative planning and intraoperative surgical assistance are promising technologies; however, additional studies are needed before they can be utilized safely and effectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) is commonly used for the evaluation of cam deformity; however, it does not display the cam border directly. PURPOSE To compare the efficacy of the best-fit sphere (BFS) method and the alpha angle marking (AAM) method in 3D-CT evaluation for the cam border. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study (Diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Twenty-six cases of cam deformity, confirmed during hip arthroscopy, were included in this study. All patients underwent a CT scan before surgery. Using multiplanar reconstruction, we obtained reformatted CT images of oblique axial, oblique coronal, and radial views. The alpha angle and femoral head-neck offset ratio (hnoR) were measured on the reformatted CT images. The cam area on 3D-CT was displayed in 4 different ways: by importing the markers from the reformatted CT images of the oblique axial view (cam-oa), the oblique coronal view (cam-oc), or the radial view (cam-r) using the AAM method, or by using the BFS method (cam-bfs). The sizes and locations of the displayed cams were compared. RESULTS All hips in this study had an alpha angle greater than 60° and an hnoR smaller than 0.17. The radial view measured a larger alpha angle and smaller hnoR than the oblique axial and coronal views (P < .05). The areas of cam-oa, cam-oc, cam-r, and cam-bfs were 161.47 ± 27.96, 89.78 ± 19.23, 241.73 ± 34.55, and 329.75 ± 42.73 mm2, respectively, and their medial-to-lateral ranges along the acetabulum (clockface referents) were 12:30 to 03:00, 11:30 to 01:30, 11:30 to 03:00, and 11:00 to 03:30, respectively. Among the 4 displays, cam-bfs had the largest area and medial-to-lateral range (P < .05), and cam-r had the second largest area and range (P < .05). No significant difference in the mean distances from the acetabular rim to the superior border was detected among the 4 displays (P > .05). CONCLUSION The cam area displayed by the BFS method on 3D-CT was larger than those evaluated by the AAM method. In the reformatted CT, the sizes and locations of cam deformity differed among the oblique axial, oblique coronal, and radial views, with the radial view showing the greatest area.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was investigate the relationship between version and torsional abnormalities of the acetabulum, femur and tibia in patients with symptomatic FAI. METHODS A systematic review was performed according to PRISMA guidelines using the EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed and Cochrane databases. Original research articles evaluating the described version and torsional parameters in FAI were included. The MINORS criteria were used to appraise study quality and risk of bias. Mean version and torsion values were displayed using forest plots and the estimated proportion of hips displaying abnormalities in version/torsion were calculated. RESULTS A total of 1206 articles were identified from the initial search, with 43 articles, involving 8861 hips, meeting the inclusion criteria. All studies evaluating femoral or acetabular version in FAI reported 'normal' mean version values (10-25 °). However, distribution analysis revealed that an estimated 31% and 51% of patients with FAI displayed abnormal central acetabular and femoral version, respectively. CONCLUSION Up to 51% of patients presenting with symptomatic FAI show an abnormal femoral version, whilst up to 31% demonstrate abnormal acetabular version. This high percentage of version abnormalities highlights the importance of evaluating these parameters routinely during assessment of patients with FAI, to guide clinical decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Compare required osteoplasty predicted by a 3D virtual dynamic hip model in femoroacetabular impingement patients to actual osteoplasty performed. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective study on 20 consecutive FAI patients with a preoperative CT who underwent arthroscopy from October 2016 to September 2017. A 3D virtual dynamic hip model was created from the CT. The model displayed virtual osteoplasty depth required to restore physiologic range of motion on an osteoplasty map. Depths of virtual osteoplasty and actual osteoplasty at surgery were compared and correlated with alpha angle, lateral center edge angle, femoral version, and acetabular version. RESULTS Actual femoroplasty depth correlated with alpha angle (r = 0.85, p ≤ 0.001) and actual acetabuloplasty depth correlated with lateral center edge angle (r = 0.83, p < 0.001). Virtual osteoplasty depth did not correlate with alpha angle (p = 0.25), lateral center edge angle (p = 0.50), femoral version (p = 0.09), or acetabular version (p = 0.09). The 3D model predicted a mean virtual osteoplasty of 6.2 ± 0.3 mm compared to mean actual osteoplasty of 5.9 ± 1.1 mm. There was no significant difference between the two means (p = 0.26), though there was a significant difference in variance (p = 0.001). There was poor test reliability between virtual osteoplasty compared with actual osteoplasty (ICC = 0.30). CONCLUSION 3D model predicted virtual osteoplasty depths varied with actual osteoplasty and was independent of 2D measurements.

Abstract
The management of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is controversial. Surgical decision-making is based regularly on the chronicity, stability, and severity of the slip. The purpose of this study was to determine the true angulation and spatial orientation of the epiphysis in hips with SCFE and contralateral hips. METHODS Eighteen hips in 18 patients with SCFE were included in the analysis. Trigonometric calculations, based on angle measurements using 2 conventional radiographs in planes that are perpendicular to each other, were used to determine the angulation of the epiphysis and its orientation in space. RESULTS The mean absolute epiphyseal obliquity of the SCFE hips was 56.2° and the spatial orientation was 36.5°. The mean obliquity of the contralateral side was 34.0°, with a related spatial orientation of 16.8°. The maximum error can reach up to 9.9° (or 41%) when comparing the calculated angles with the angle measurements on radiographs. CONCLUSIONS On standard radiographs, the epiphyseal angulation in SCFE is consistently underestimated. As a consequence, the assigned classification of some patients may be 1 severity group too low, which impacts the value of traditional severity classification for surgical decision-making. The analysis of the spatial orientation of the slip with the concomitant direction of the resultant shear can partially explain varus and valgus slip in SCFE. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Diagnostic Level IV.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to validate three-dimensional (3D) proximal femoral surface models generated from a 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by comparing these 3D models to those derived from the clinical "gold standard" of computed tomography (CT) scan and to ground-truth surface models obtained by laser scans (LSs) of the excised femurs. Four intact bilateral cadaveric pelvis specimens underwent CT and MRI scans and 3D surface models were generated. Six femurs were extracted from these specimens, and the overlying soft tissues were removed. The extracted femurs were then laser scanned to produce a ground-truth surface model. A 3D-3D registration method was used to compare the signed and absolute surface-to-surface distances between the 3D models. Absolute agreement was evaluated using a 95% confidence interval (CI) derived from the precision of the LS ground-truth. Paired samples t tests and Kolmogrov-Smirnov tests were performed to compare the differences between the signed and absolute surface-to-surface distances between the models. The average signed surface-to-surface distances for the MRI vs LS and MRI vs CT models were 0.07 and 0.16 mm, respectively. These differences fell within the 95% CI of ±0.20 mm indicating absolute agreement between the surface models generated from these modalities. The signed surface-to-surface distance was significantly smaller for MRI vs LS ground truth model as compared with the CT vs LS model. Femoral models derived from a 1.5 T MRI scan demonstrated absolute agreement with the clinical gold standard of CT-derived models and were most like LS ground truth models of the excised femurs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and hip dysplasia are the most common causes of groin pain originating from the hip joint. To date, there is controversy over cut-off values for the evaluation of abnormal femoral head-neck anatomy with significant overlap between the normal and abnormal hips. Our aim was to perform three-dimensional CT analysis of femoral head and bump anatomy to quantify common hip pathologies (FAI and hip dysplasia) vs controls. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent three-dimensional CT imaging for hip dysplasia or CAM type FAI were compared to asymptomatic controls. α angles on radial CT and 3D volumetric femoral head and bump segmentations were performed by two readers. Inter- and intrapatient comparisons were performed including interreader and receiver operating characteristic analyses. RESULTS 25 FAI patients, 16 hip dysplasia patients and 38 controls were included. FAI and dysplasia patients exhibited higher α angles and higher bump-head volume ratios than the controls (p < 0.05). Larger bump volumes were found among FAI than dysplasia patients and contralateral hips of FAI patients were also different than the controls. α angle at 2 o'clock and bump to head ratio showed the highest area under the curve for patients vs controls. The interreader reliability was better for volumetric segmentation (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.35-0.84) as compared to the α angles (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.11-0.44). CONCLUSION Patients with FAI and dysplasia exhibit different femoral head anatomy than asymptomatic controls. Volumetric segmentation of femoral head and bump is more reliable and better demonstrates the bilateral femoral head anatomy differences in hip patients vs controls. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Utilizing information from 3D volumetric bump assessment in patients with FAI and dysplasia, the physicians may be able to more objectively and reliably evaluate the altered anatomy for better pre-surgical evaluation.

PURPOSE Rates for arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are rising and there is growing concern related to the effectiveness and costs associated with this treatment. There is a general lack of consensus as to the criteria for surgical selection of patients. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patient outcome following arthroscopic surgery for FAI could be predicted based on the size and location of deformity. The specific questions were: (1) what is the morphology of FAI in terms of size and location of deformity in a cohort of patients selected for surgery? (2) Do morphological factors predict postoperative improvement in hip scores? (3) Do morphological factors predict preoperative hip scores? (4) Are there clusters of morphological factors which explain postsurgical improvement in hip scores? MATERIALS AND METHODS Computer tomography (CT) surgical plans of 90 hips in 79 patients who had undergone primary hip arthroscopy for FAI were retrospectively reviewed. Four parameters for the femur and acetabulum were created: total depth of deformity, maximal depth, extent and the position of maximal deformity. This data were compared with prospectively acquired preoperative and postoperative patient outcome data using generalised linear models. RESULTS The cohort comprised 33 males and 46 females aged 37.9 (18-61). The majority (74%) had mixed morphology, 23% isolated cam, and 3% isolated pincer. Overall, the bone depth was greatest and more extensive on the femur. Increased total additional cam deformity alone predicted poorer postoperative outcome (p = 0.045). None of the morphological factors were related to preoperative scores and there was no association between the meta-variables and postoperative outcome. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicate that a greater total volume of cam deformity led to poorer postoperative patient outcome scores at 1 year. This information provides the surgeon with more accurate patient-specific data for prediction of expected outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III diagnostic.

Abstract
Three-dimensional printing is a valuable modality with broad clinical applications. Hip preservation surgery outcomes are dependent on correction of morphological abnormalities that may be optimally visualized with three-dimensional models. To assess the efficacy of three-dimensional models for patient and trainee education and to determine its benefits during pre-operative planning in hip preservation surgery. Sixteen patients with hip pathology were selected. Computed tomography was utilized to generate three-dimensional models. Customized Likert-style questionnaires were given to 10 hip preservation surgeons, 11 orthopedic surgery residents and 10 patients. All residents strongly agreed or agreed that the three-dimensional hip models helped them to understand patients’ pathology. All but one patient agreed that the models assisted in their understanding of the treatment plan. Surgeons concurred that although they do not routinely order three-dimensional models, their use would improve trainee and patient education, especially when treating atypical osseous pathomorphologies. Three-dimensional models are tools that can help surgeon, trainee and patient understanding and participation in treatment of complex hip disorders. Patients and trainees agree that the prototypes enhanced their educational experience, as the surgeon can directly demonstrate complex morphological abnormalities. Trainees can therefore gain a better understanding of hip pathologies and treatment. As patients better understand their hip disorder, they can more fully participate in shared treatment decision-making. Level of Evidence Level IV, Retrospective Case Series

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate radiographic and clinical outcomes after arthroscopic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) correction in symptomatic adolescent athletes with open physes. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients treated with a non-physeal-sparing arthroscopic approach for symptomatic FAI with open physes and a minimum 1-year follow-up. Specific plain radiographic and computed tomography parameters were determined, and preoperative and postoperative outcomes were prospectively evaluated with modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), 12-Item Veterans-Rand, and pain on a visual analog scale. RESULTS Thirty-seven hips (28 patients; 75% male) with a mean age of 15.9 years (range, 12.8-18.3 years) had imaging studies consistent with open femoral neck and iliac crest physes. The ischial tuberosity and greater trochanteric physes were open in 95% and 54% of the hips, respectively. All patients participated in organized athletics, and 50% were in multiple sports year-round. Mean follow-up was 39.8 months post-arthroscopic FAI correction. There was a mean 27.7-point improvement in the mHHS (P < .001), a 4.8-point decrease in the visual analog scale for pain (P < .001), and a 15.2-point improvement in the 12-Item Veterans-Rand physical component (P < .001). Ninety-three percent of patients returned to their preinjury level of sports participation without limitations. Thirty (81.1%) patients demonstrated improvements in mHHS greater than the minimally clinically important difference (of mHHS 8 points). Two patients could not reach minimally clinically important difference because of a preoperative mHHS of > 92. There were no postoperative physeal growth arrests, growth disturbances, physeal instability, or avascular necrosis. CONCLUSIONS A non-physeal-sparing arthroscopic approach for FAI in adolescents with open physes is safe and effective with no evidence of clinically relevant complication of growth arrest-related deformity or physeal instability in patients with a minimum of 1 year (mean, 39.8 months) of follow-up after surgery. Young, highly athletic adolescent patients with larger FAI deformities demonstrated greater outcomes improvement after arthroscopy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Do Your Routine Radiographs to Diagnose Cam Femoroacetabular Impingement Visualize the Region of the Femoral Head-Neck Junction You Intended? Arthroscopy 2019; 35:1796-1806. [PMID: 31072720 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2018.12.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2018] [Revised: 11/13/2018] [Accepted: 12/04/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To use computer models and image analysis to identify the position on the head-neck junction visualized in 10 radiographic views used to quantify cam morphology. METHODS We generated 97 surface models of the proximal femur from computed tomography scans of 59 control femurs and 38 femurs with cam morphology-a flattening or convexity at the femoral head-neck junction. Each model was transformed to a position that represents the anteroposterior, Meyer lateral, 45° Dunn, modified false-profile, Espié frog-leg, modified 45° Dunn, frog-leg lateral, cross-table, 90° Dunn, and false-profile views. The position on the head-neck junction visualized from each view was identified on the surfaces. This position was then quantified by a clock face generated on the plane of the head-neck junction, in which the 12-o'clock position indicated the superior head-neck junction and the 3-o'clock position indicated the anterior head-neck junction. The mean visualized clock-face position was calculated for all subjects. Analysis was repeated to account for variability in femoral version. A general linear model with repeated measures was used to compare each radiographic view and anteversion angle. RESULTS Each radiographic view provided visualization of the mean clock-face position as follows: anteroposterior view, 12:01; Meyer lateral view, 1:08; 45° Dunn view, 1:40; modified false-profile view, 2:01; Espié frog-leg view, 2:14; modified 45° Dunn view, 2:35; frog-leg lateral view, 2:45; cross-table view, 3:00; 90° Dunn view, 3:13; and false-profile view, 3:44. Each view visualized a different position on the clock face (all P < .001). Increasing simulated femoral anteversion by 10° changed the visualized position of the head-neck junction to a more clockwise position (range, 0:07 to 0:29; all P < .001), whereas decreasing anteversion by 10° visualized a more counterclockwise position (range, -0:23 to -0:08; all P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Ten common radiographic views used to identify cam morphology visualized different clock-face positions of the head-neck junction. Our data will help clinicians to understand the position of the head-neck junction visualized for each radiographic view and make educated decisions in the selection of radiographs acquired in the clinic. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our findings will aid clinicians in choosing a set of radiographs to capture cam morphology in the assessment of patients with hip pain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if hip 3D-MR imaging can be used to accurately demonstrate femoral and acetabular morphology in the evaluation of patients with femoroacetabular impingement. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective review at our institution of 17 consecutive patients (19 hips) with suspected femoroacetabular impingement who had both 3D-CT and 3D-MRI performed of the same hip. Two fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists reviewed the imaging for the presence and location of cam deformity, anterior-inferior iliac spine variant, lateral center-edge angle, and neck-shaft angle. Findings on 3D-CT were considered the reference standard. The amount of radiation that was spared following introduction of 3D-MRI was also assessed. RESULTS All 17 patients suspected of FAI had evidence for cam deformity on 3D-CT. There was 100% agreement for diagnosis (19 out of 19) and location (19 out of 19) of cam deformity when comparing 3D-MRI with 3D-CT. There were 3 type I and 16 type II anterior-inferior iliac spine variants on 3D-CT imaging with 89.5% (17 out of 19) agreement for the anterior-inferior iliac spine characterization between 3D-MRI and 3D-CT. There was 64.7% agreement when comparing the neck-shaft angle (11 out of 17) and LCEA (11 out of 17) measurements. The use of 3D-MRI spared each patient an average radiation effective dose of 3.09 mSV for a total reduction of 479 mSV over a 4-year period. CONCLUSION 3D-MR imaging can be used to accurately diagnose and quantify the typical osseous pathological condition in femoroacetabular impingement and has the potential to eliminate the need for 3D-CT imaging and its associated radiation exposure, and the cost for this predominantly young group of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate feasibility and reliability of 3DCT semi-automatic segmentation and volumetrics of CAM lesions in femoroacetabular impingement and determine correlations with anthropometrics. METHODS: A consecutive series of 43 patients with CAM type FAI underwent 3DCT. 20 males and 23 females (30 unilateral and 13 bilateral symptomatic hips) were included. 56 CAM lesions and femoral heads were segmented by two readers. Radial images were obtained for alpha angles. Pearson and ICC correlations were used for analysis. RESULTS: In 43 patients (male: female = 1 : 1.15), mean ± SD of age, height, BMI were 36.6 ± 11.47 years, 1.72 ± 0.10 meters and 26.25 ± 4.31 kg m-². Femoral head and bumps were segmented in 4 min. Inter reader reliability was good to excellent for volumetrics and poor for alpha angles. Mean ± SD of CAM lesion and femoral head volumes were significantly larger (6.7 ± 2.5 cc3 and 62.9 ± 10.8 cc3) for males than females (p < 0.001) and these increased with increasing patient height (Pearson correlation and p-values = 0.45, 0.0006; 0.82, < 0.0001 respectively). CONCLUSION: Volumetric analysis of CAM lesion shows better inter reader reliability than alpha angle measurements. CAM and femoral head volumes exhibit significant positive correlations with patient heights and male gender that may aid in pre-operative planning for femoroplasty. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Femoral head & CAM volumes are segmented three times faster than alpha angles with superior inter reader reliability than alpha angles. Femoral head & CAM volumes are significantly larger in males and positively correlate with patients' heights.

Mechanical Strength of the Proximal Femur After Arthroscopic Osteochondroplasty for Femoroacetabular Impingement: Finite Element Analysis and 3-Dimensional Image Analysis. Arthroscopy 2018; 34:2377-2386.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the influence of femoral neck resection on the mechanical strength of the proximal femur in actual surgery. METHODS Eighteen subjects who received arthroscopic cam resection for cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) were included. Finite element analyses (FEAs) were performed to calculate changes in simulative fracture load between pre- and postoperative femur models. The finite element femur models were constructed from computed tomographic images; thus, the models represented the shape of the original femur, including the bone resection site. Three-dimensional image analysis of the bone resection site was performed to identify morphometric factors that affect strength in the postoperative femur model. Four oblique sagittal planes running perpendicular to the femoral neck axis were used as reference planes to measure the bone resection site. RESULTS At the transcervical reference plane, both the bone resection depth and the cross-sectional area at the resection site correlated strongly with postoperative changes in the simulated fracture load (R2 = 0.6, P = .0001). However, only resection depth was significantly correlated with the simulated fracture load at the reference plane for the head-neck junction. The resected bone volume did not correlate with the postoperative changes in the simulated fracture load. CONCLUSIONS The results of our FEA suggest that the bone resection depth measured at the head-neck junction and transcervical reference plane correlates with fracture risk after osteochondroplasty. By contrast, bone resection at more proximal areas did not have a significant effect on the postoperative femur model strength in our FEA. The total volume of resected bone was also not significantly correlated with postoperative changes in femur model strength. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This biomechanical study using FEA suggest that there is a risk of femoral neck fracture after arthroscopic cam resection, particularly when the resected lesion is located distally.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The specific influence of preoperative and postoperative radiographic measurements on patient-reported outcome measures after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) remains unclear. PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between radiographic measurements and 2-year outcomes after hip arthroscopy for the treatment of FAI. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS A clinical registry of patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAI between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2014, was queried. Outcome measures included the Hip Outcome Score (HOS) Activities of Daily Living (ADL), HOS Sport-Specific Subscale (SSS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction. Preoperative and postoperative radiographic measurements were recorded. Univariate analysis was conducted to identify relationships between all radiographic and demographic variables and outcome scores. A multivariate regression analysis, controlling for demographic factors, was used to identify independent associations between radiographic measurements on plain radiographs and patient-reported outcomes. RESULTS The authors identified 707 patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopic management for FAI who were included for analysis. Two-year outcome surveys were completed for 78% to 84% of patients. The mean age of the patients was 33.2 ± 12.3 years, and 64.4% of the patients (n = 456) were female. The mean anteroposterior (AP) alpha angle decreased by 34.3° ( P < .0001), false profile alpha angle by 25.2° ( P < .0001), Dunn lateral alpha angle by 28.9° ( P < .0001), lateral center edge angle by 2.6° ( P < .0001), and anterior center edge angle by 3.4° ( P < .0001). The HOS-ADL score increased from 65.7 ± 18.7 preoperatively to 85.9 ± 16.7 postoperatively ( P < .0001), HOS-SSS increased from 43.4 ± 23.1 to 72.6 ± 27.2 ( P < .0001), and mHHS increased from 57.7 ± 14.0 to 79.1 ± 17.2 ( P < .0001). With multivariate analysis, independent predictors of the postoperative HOS-ADL score included the preoperative false profile alpha angle (beta = -0.16, P = .028). Independent predictors of HOS-SSS score were preoperative AP alpha angle (beta = -0.33, P = .032) and preoperative false profile alpha angle (beta = -0.28, P = .041). For the postoperative mHHS score, independent predictors included preoperative AP alpha angle (beta = -0.18, P = .046), preoperative false profile alpha angle (beta = -0.20, P = .014), and postoperative false profile alpha angle (beta = -0.48, P = .035). The preoperative AP alpha angle (beta = 0.28, P = .024) was a significant predictor for the postoperative VAS pain score. The preoperative false profile alpha angle (beta = -0.34, P = .040) was a significant predictor for the postoperative VAS satisfaction score. CONCLUSION The authors observed that radiographic measurements, specifically the preoperative false profile alpha angle, AP alpha angle, and postoperative false profile alpha angle, are independent predictors of 2-year clinical outcomes. The femoral-side measurements were the strongest independent predictors of outcomes, especially measurements of the anterior and lateral-based CAM lesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) morphology can lead to range-of-motion deficits in football players. It is therefore important for physicians treating these players to be aware of the location and implications of FAI morphology. PURPOSE/QUESTIONS We sought to characterize the radiographic deformity and dynamic impingement observed in a consecutive series of American football linemen with symptomatic, mechanical hip pain who underwent surgical treatment for FAI and to use software analysis to identify the location of impingement and terminal range of motion and the effects of simulated correction. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted of 17 hips in 13 football linemen who underwent arthroscopic correction for symptomatic FAI. Computed tomography (CT) scans were used to generate preoperative three-dimensional models of the hips. Femoral and acetabular measurements, maximum hip flexion, abduction, internal rotation at 90° flexion (IR90), and flexion/adduction/internal rotation (FADIR) were determined, and areas of bony collision were defined. Simulated femoral correction was performed and motion analysis was repeated. RESULTS Mean femoral version was 13.1° (range, 0 to 26°), while mean femoral neck-shaft angle was 132.1° (range, 123 to 145°). Mean maximum alpha angle on the radial reformatted CT was 69.2° (range, 48 to 95°) and was located at the 12:45 clock-face position (range, 11:30 to 2:15). Mean acetabular version values at 1:30 and 3:00 were 1.1° (range, - 11 to 11°) and 12.7° (range, 2 to 20°), respectively. Fifty-three percent of hips showed a "crossover" sign. Mean lateral center-edge angle was 31.7° (range, 25 to 44°). CT-derived motion analysis demonstrated a mean preoperative flexion of 108.2° (range, 73 to 127°), IR90 of 20.5° (range, 0 to 52°), and FADIR of 12.3° (range, 0 to 39°). Simulated correction resulted in significant improvements in flexion (6.6°), IR90 (11.3°), and FADIR (10.6°). CONCLUSIONS While cephalad retroversion was observed in approximately half of the hips, a significant cam deformity was seen maximally at 12:45, a more posterior cam location than that of the general population. Managing this pathology required obtaining preoperative and intraoperative images to characterize lesions and allow for their complete correction. With complete correction of the deformity, simulated range of motion demonstrated significant improvement in flexion, IR90, and FADIR maneuvers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinically, understanding how the soft tissue envelope adapts to various forms of hip dysfunction could enhance both surgical and nonsurgical management. Very few studies have looked at soft tissue structures as preoperative discriminators between varying underlying etiologies of hip conditions. PURPOSE To demonstrate that the magnetic resonance arthrography assessment of soft tissue structures of the hip will preoperatively differ in patients with different underlying hip joint diseases. METHODS Fifty-seven patients who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance arthrography and corrective hip surgery were retrospectively identified yielding 3 groups: 17 with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) (11 F, 6 M; mean age 35.1 years, range 19.6-53.6); 20 with isolated labral tears (LTs) (17 F, 3 M; mean age 38.4 years, range 15.2-62.1), and 20 with cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) (11 F, 9 M; mean age 38.8 years, range 18.9-51.2). Measurements of the hip labral length, capsule thickness, and psoas, rectus femoris, and gluteal muscle dimensions were performed, with normalization of the values for statistical analysis. RESULTS The superior labral length was significantly greater in the DDH group [normalized value (NV): 0.30] compared with the FAI group (NV: 0.25, P < 0.05). In addition, the superior (12 o'clock) capsular thickness (NV: 0.24) was significantly greater compared with the LT group (NV: 0.15, P < 0.05) and the FAI group (NV: 0.16, P < 0.05). The DDH group also had a significantly greater anterior (3 o'clock) capsular thickness (NV: 0.18) compared with the LT group (NV: 0.13, P < 0.05). The transverse dimension of the rectus femoris was larger in the DDH group (NV: 1.39) compared with the FAI group (NV: 1.14, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION An enlarged rectus femoris and thicker hip capsule as well as an enlarged labrum are characteristic findings in hip dysplasia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level III.

Abstract
PURPOSE To calculate the lifetime risk of malignancy in young adult patients with hip pain using 5 different imaging and radiation dose protocols with or without pre- and postoperative computed tomography (CT). METHODS Radiographic and CT patient radiation doses were retrospectively reviewed. Imaging protocols for hip pain composed of radiographs with or without pre- and postoperative CT scans were modeled and radiation doses were estimated using the PCXMC computer code. Based on these radiation doses, lifetime attributable risks of cancer and mortality for a 10- through 60-year-old male and female were calculated as published by the committee on the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) in the BEIR VII report. Relative risks and number needed to harm (NNH) were calculated for each protocol. RESULTS Based on a review of our institutional database, 2 CT scan doses were used for this study: a high 5.06 mSv and a low 2.86 mSv. Effective doses of radiation ranged from 0.59 to 0.66 mSv for radiographs alone to 10.71 to 10.78 mSv for radiographs and CT both pre- and postoperatively at the higher dose. Lifetime attributable risk of cancer for radiographs alone was 0.006% and 0.011% for a 20-year-old male and female, respectively. Lifetime attributable risk of cancer for radiographs along with pre- and postoperative CT scans at higher dose was 0.105% and 0.177% for a 20-year-old male and female, respectively. Radiographs alone lead to an NNH of 16,667 for males and 9,090 for females, whereas the protocol with pre- and postoperative CT scans at the higher dose led to an NNH of 952 for males and 564 for females. The relative risk of this protocol compared to radiographs alone was 17.5 for males and 16.1 for females. CONCLUSION Protocols with CT scans of the hip/pelvis pose a small lifetime attributable risk (0.034%-0.177% for a 20-year-old) but a large relative risk (5-17 times) of cancer compared with radiographs alone in the imaging evaluation for hip pain that decreases with increasing age. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study illustrates the need for clinicians to understand the imaging protocols used at their institution to understand the risks and benefits of using those protocols in their practice.

Abstract
With increased knowledge and understanding of hip pathology, hip arthroscopy is rapidly becoming a popular treatment option for young patients with hip pain. Despite improved clinical and radiographic outcomes with arthroscopic treatment, some patients may have ongoing pain and less than satisfactory outcomes. While the reasons leading to failed hip arthroscopy are multifactorial, patient selection, surgical technique and rehabilitation all play a role. Patients with failed hip arthroscopy should undergo a thorough history and physical examination, as well as indicated imaging. A treatment plan should then be developed based on pertinent findings from the workup and in conjunction with the patient. Depending on the etiology of failed hip arthroscopy, management may be nonsurgical or surgical, which may include revision arthroscopic or open surgery, periacetabular osteotomy or joint arthroplasty. Revision surgery may be appropriate in settings including, but not limited to, incompletely treated femoroacetabular impingement, postoperative adhesions, heterotopic ossification, instability, hip dysplasia or advanced degeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Disruption of the arterial supply to the femoral head, and subsequent development of femoral head osteonecrosis, is of serious concern with intracapsular hip procedures. However, the effect of arthroscopic femoral osteochondroplasty on femoral head perfusion is unknown. We aimed to quantify the effects of both standard and posterosuperior extension of arthroscopic femoral osteochondroplasty on femoral head vascularity. We hypothesized that extension of the superior resection zone posteriorly would negatively affect femoral head perfusion. METHODS In 12 cadaveric pelvic specimens, we cannulated the medial femoral circumflex artery (MFCA). One hip per pelvis was randomly selected to be in 1 of 2 experimental groups based on the superior extent of the osteochondroplasty: standard resection (resection anterior to the 12 o'clock [0° of 360°] position) or extended resection (resection extended posterior to the 12 o'clock position). Computed tomography (CT) scans were obtained prior to and following arthroscopic resection to delineate the resection margins. Gadolinium enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was quantified in the femoral head by volumetric analysis using custom software. A polyurethane compound was injected and gross dissection of the vasculature was performed. RESULTS Extension of the osteochondroplasty posteriorly (the extended-resection group), to a mean of 41.3° (range, 34° to 47°) posterior to the 12 o'clock position, decreased femoral head perfusion by a mean of 28% (range, 18% to 38%). The standard-resection group demonstrated a mean decrease in femoral head perfusion of 7% (range, 4% to 11%). Correlation analysis demonstrated a significant negative correlation (correlation coefficient, -0.877; p < 0.001; R = 0.747). For every 1° that the superior resection margin extended posteriorly, a corresponding 0.88% decrease in femoral head perfusion was found. CONCLUSIONS Femoral head perfusion is almost fully maintained with arthroscopic osteochondroplasty when the superior resection margin is anterior to the 12 o'clock position. Perfusion is also well maintained if the superior resection margin is extended no more than 10° posterior to 12 o'clock. Further posterior extension correlated with greater decreases in femoral head perfusion. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our study provides previously unreported quantitative MRI data on femoral head perfusion following arthroscopic femoral osteochondroplasty for the treatment of cam-type femoroacetabular impingement.

Abstract
Radiologic imaging is an essential supplement to the physical examination in the evaluation of a patient with femoroacetabular impingement. Plain radiographs are the initial modality of choice for the evaluation of bony anatomy and pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging supplements the physical examination and standard radiographs by enabling qualitative and quantitative evaluation of both articular cartilage and soft tissues about the hip. Magnetic resonance imaging also provides improved 3-dimensional characterization of the bony anatomy owing to the multiplanar nature of this technique. This article describes a comprehensive approach to interpretation of magnetic resonance examination of the hip.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cam morphology in association with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a recognized cause of hip pain and cartilage damage and proposed as a leading cause of arthritis. The purpose of this study was to analyze the functional and biomechanical effects of the surgical correction of the cam deformity on the degenerative process associated with FAI. METHODS Ten male patients with a mean age of 34.3 years (range, 23.1 to 46.5 years) and a mean body mass index (and standard deviation) of 26.66 ± 4.79 kg/m underwent corrective surgery for cam deformity in association with FAI. Each patient underwent a computed tomography (CT) scan to assess acetabular bone mineral density (BMD), high-resolution T1ρ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hips to assess proteoglycan content, and squatting motion analysis as well as completed self-administered functional questionnaires (Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [HOOS]) both preoperatively and 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 24.5 months, improvements in functional scores and squat performance were seen. Regarding the zone of impingement in the anterosuperior quadrant of the acetabular rim, the mean change in BMD at the time of follow-up was -31.8 mg/cc (95% confidence interval [CI], -11 to -53 mg/cc) (p = 0.008), representing a 5% decrease in BMD. The anterosuperior quadrant also demonstrated a significant decrease in T1ρ values, reflecting a stabilization of the cartilage degeneration. Significant correlations were noted between changes in clinical functional scores and changes in T1ρ values (r = -0.86; p = 0.003) as well as between the BMD and maximum vertical force (r = 0.878; p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS Surgical correction of a cam deformity in patients with symptomatic FAI not only improved clinical function but was also associated with decreases in T1ρ values and BMD. These findings are the first, to our knowledge, to show that alteration of the hip biomechanics through surgical intervention improves the overall health of the hip joint.

Abstract
PURPOSE This article seeks to improve treatment outcomes in slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) by outlining advances in diagnosis, understanding of pathomechanics, and mechanically-based classification. METHODS Review of clinical experience with SCFE at our high-volume centre, interaction with other clinical experts, and literature review has allowed a current perspective to be articulated. RESULTS SCFE remains an important clinical problem, with late diagnosis still frequent. Improved understanding of the ubiquity of femoroacetabular impingement has guided current classification and treatment protocols. CONCLUSION SCFE is an important clinical problem, with high historical rates of impaired hip function both in childhood and adulthood. Great opportunities exist for improved outcomes following earliest possible clinical diagnosis, modern imaging, and mechanically-based classification of involved hips to allow optimal treatment.

PURPOSE To compare radiographic and 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) imaging modalities for the screening of anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) impingement by establishing imaging measurement related to the AIIS. METHODS Anteroposterior and false-profile radiographs and 3D CT scans were obtained on 10 human cadaveric pelvises. On the anteroposterior view for each methodology, 2 measurements were calculated: distance to the most lateral AIIS from the 12 o'clock position on the acetabular rim, and the angle between the lateral AIIS and the sagittal plane. On the false-profile view for each methodology, 2 measurements were calculated: distance to the anterior AIIS from the 12 o'clock position on the acetabular rim, and the angle between the anterior AIIS and the sagittal plane. Inter-rater and intrarater reliability analyses were performed for both methods in addition to an intermethod analysis. RESULTS The radiographic false-profile view was the most repeatable orientation, with intraclass correlation coefficients showing excellent reproducibility in both inter-rater (angle: 0.980, distance: 0.883) and intrarater (angle: 0.995, distance: 0.995) analyses. The mean distance from the 12 o'clock position of the acetabular rim to the most anterior/lateral aspect of the AIIS was 41.4 mm and 16.0 mm on the radiographic false-profile and anteroposterior views, respectively. Intermethod analysis showed a systematic, quantitative bias between modalities (anteroposterior view: -4.1 mm, 6.7°; false-profile view: -0.1 mm, 8.3°), which will remain relatively consistent as evidenced by the strong individual reproducibility of each measurement. CONCLUSIONS AIIS morphology in relation to the acetabular rim 12 o'clock position and its angle relative to the sagittal plane can be quantitatively determined using either radiographic or 3D CT imaging modalities. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Radiographic evaluation may be a valuable tool in the screening of AIIS impingement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia represents a spectrum of complex deformities on both sides of the joint. Although many studies have described the acetabular side of the deformity, to our knowledge, little is known about the three-dimensional (3-D) head and neck offset differences of the femora of dysplastic hips. A thorough knowledge of proximal femoral anatomy is important to prevent potential impingement and improve results after acetabular reorientation. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Are there common proximal femoral characteristics in patients with symptomatic hip dysplasia undergoing periacetabular osteotomy (PAO)? (2) Where is the location of maximal femoral head and neck offset deformity in hip dysplasia? (3) Do certain subgroups of dysplastic hips more commonly have cam-type femoral morphology? (4) Is there a relationship between hip ROM as well as impingement testing and 3-D head and neck offset deformity? METHODS Using our hip preservation database, 153 hips (148 patients) underwent PAO from October 2013 to July 2015. We identified 103 hips in 100 patients with acetabular dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] < 20°) and who had a Tönnis grade of 0 or 1. Eighty-six patients (86%) underwent preoperative low-dose pelvic CT scans at our institution as part of the preoperative planning for PAO. It is currently our standard to obtain preoperative low-dose pelvic CT scans (0.75-1.25 mSv, equivalent to three to five AP pelvis radiographs) on all patients before they undergo PAO unless a prior CT scan is performed at an outside institution. Hips with a history of a neuromuscular disorder, prior trauma, prior surgery, radiographic evidence of joint degeneration, ischemic necrosis, or Perthes-like deformities were excluded. Fifty hips in 50 patients met inclusion criteria and had CT scans available for review. Hips were analyzed with Dyonics Plan software and characterized with regard to version, neck-shaft angle, femoral head diameter, head and neck offset, femoral neck length, femoral offset, head center height, trochanteric height, and alpha angle. The maximum head and neck offset deformity was assessed using an entire clockface and an alpha angle ≥ 55° defined coexisting cam morphology. Subgroups included severity of lateral dysplasia: mild (LCEA 15°-20°) and moderate/severe (LCEA < 15°). Femoral version subgroups were defined as normal (5°-20°), decreased (≤ 5°), or increased (> 20°). The senior author (JCC) performed all physical examination testing. RESULTS The mean LCEA was 14° (±4°), whereas the mean femoral anteversion was 19° (±12°). Eight hips (16%) demonstrated relative femoral retroversion (≤ 5°), whereas 26 (52%) showed excessive femoral anteversion (> 20°). Four hips (8%) had ≥ 35° of femoral anteversion. The mean neck-shaft angle was 136° (±5°). The mean maximum alpha location was 2:00 o'clock (±45 minutes) and the mean maximum alpha angle was 52° (±6°). Minimum head-neck offset ratio was located at 1:30 with a mean of 0.14 (±0.03). An anterior head-neck offset ratio of ≤ 0.17 or an alpha angle ≥ 55° was found in 43 (86%) of hips. Twenty-one dysplastic hips (42%) had an alpha angle ≥ 55°. Mildly dysplastic hips had decreased femoral head and neck offset (9 ± 1) and head and neck offset ratio (0.20 ± 0.03) at 12 o'clock compared with moderate/severe dysplastic hips (10 ± 1 and 0.22 ± 0.03, respectively; p = 0.04 and p = 0.01). With the numbers available, we found that hips with excessive femoral anteversion (> 20°) had no difference in the alpha angle at 3 o'clock (42 ± 7) compared with hips with relative femoral retroversion (≤ 5°; 48 ± 4; p = 0.06). No other differences in femoral morphology were found between hips with mild or moderate/severe dysplasia or in the femoral version subgroups with the numbers available. Anterior impingement test was positive in 76% of hips with an alpha angle ≥ 55° and 83% of the hips with an alpha angle ≤ 55°. No correlation was found between proximal femoral morphology and preoperative ROM. CONCLUSIONS In this subset of dysplastic hips, cam deformity of the femoral head and neck was present in 42% of hips with maximal head-neck deformity at 2 o'clock, and 82% had reduced head-neck offset at the 1:30 point. We conclude that cam-type deformities and decreased head-neck offset in developmental dysplasia of the hip are common. Patients should be closely assessed for need of a head and neck osteochondroplasty, especially after acetabular correction. Future prospective studies should evaluate the influence of proximal femoral anatomy on surgical results of PAO for dysplastic hips. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, prognostic study.

Abstract
PURPOSE To better understand how radiograph imaging is currently used throughout perioperative care for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and to define surgeon knowledge and perspective on radiation safety when treating FAI. METHODS An online questionnaire was designed to be completed by hip arthroscopists on the imaging modalities and projections they use during evaluation and treatment of FAI and the associated radiation exposures and safety. A sample of practicing attending orthopaedic surgeons was surveyed via an anonymous survey link emailed to corresponding authors on publications related to FAI. The anonymous survey link was also provided to orthopaedic surgeons at the 2014 Vail Hip Symposium. RESULTS Ninety-one surgeons completed the survey. Of these participants, 72 surgeons (79.1 %) indicated they use pre-operative radiographs and intra-operative spot fluoroscopic images during FAI treatment. Thirty-three surgeons (36.3 %) use pre-operative computed tomography (CT). Twenty-three surgeons (25.3 %) use real-time moving fluoroscopy. A majority of surgeons incorrectly answered multiple-choice questions about which C-arm positions and settings result in the lowest doses of radiation to the surgeon or patient. Eighty-three surgeons (91.2 %) indicated they believe most orthopaedic surgeons need to be more informed about radiation safety. CONCLUSIONS This study gives a quantitative representation of the imaging modalities and projections utilized during perioperative treatment for FAI. This study also identified a lack of knowledge of radiation safety among orthopaedic surgeons treating patients with FAI and demonstrates the need for greater education. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
CAM lesions are now seen as a significant pathology that could cause osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Currently there is no gold standard for classifying these lesions. We aim to show a simple method for classifying these lesions based on shape and position. Using CT 3D reconstruction, 91 preoperative CT scans from patients who had undergone hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement, were reconstructed to produce 3D images. Two senior hip surgeons have devised a simple four type classification system from previous experience. The system highlights the position and shape of different CAM lesions present in patients. The two senior surgeons and one junior surgeon reviewed the scans individually to assess whether the system could be used at all levels of surgical experience. The two senior surgeons agreed on which type of CAM lesion was present in all 91 cases. Intra observer reliability scores for the senior surgeons were 0.90 and 0.91. The junior surgeon reviewed the scans and disagreed on eight cases. This gave a Kappa co-efficient score of 0.87, which confirms a reliable system. We believe this classification system is simple and reproducible. It will aid surgeons in pre and intra-operative management of CAM lesions. Surgeons will be able to select the optimal portal placement and resect less capsule depending on the exact CAM lesion identified. This will potentially reduce complications and improve outcomes in junior hip arthroscopy surgeons.

Abstract
Hip preservation surgery is performed to address femoroacetabular impingement, alleviate any associated pain, and reduce the risk of early onset of osteoarthritis. In the last decade, arthroscopy has become more popular in addressing femoroacetabular impingement, due to its minimally invasive approach. However, poor visualization and limited spatial awareness of the joint make arthroscopy of the hip difficult, resulting in a steep learning curve. This paper reviews the utility and benefits of 3-dimensional imaging and computer navigation and what these tools may add to the preoperative planning stages of hip preservation surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate comprehension of the normal humeral morphology is crucial for anatomical reconstruction in shoulder arthroplasty. However, traditional morphological measurements for humerus were mainly based on cadaver and radiography. The purpose of this study was to provide a series of precise and repeatable parameters of the normal proximal humerus for arthroplasty, based on the three-dimensional (3-D) measurements. METHODS Radiographic and 3-D computed tomography (CT) measurements of the proximal humerus were performed in a sample of 120 consecutive adults. Sex differences, two image modalities differences, and correlations of the parameters were evaluated. Intra- and inter-observer reproducibility was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). RESULTS In the male group, all parameters except the neck-shaft angle of humerus, based on 3-D CT images, were greater than those in the female group (P < 0.05). All variables were significantly different between two image modalities (P < 0.05). In 3-D CT measurement, all parameters expect neck-shaft angle had correlation with each other (P < 0.001), particularly between two diameters of the humeral head (r = 0.907). All parameters in the 3-D CT measurement had excellent reproducibility (ICC range, 0.878 to 0.936) that was higher than those in the radiographs (ICC range, 0.741 to 0.858). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggested that 3-D CT was more reproducible than plain radiography in the assessment of morphology of the normal proximal humerus. Therefore, this reproducible modality could be utilized in the preoperative planning. Our data could serve as an effective guideline for humeral component selection and improve the design of shoulder prosthesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare passive and real-time active hip range of motion (ROM) in asymptomatic collegiate pitchers, to investigate whether differences in hip morphology and ROM exist between lead and trail hips, and to relate active hip ROM during the pitch to hip morphology and femoroacetabular impingement. METHODS Eleven collegiate baseball pitchers participated in kinematic testing that involved throwing 4 fastball pitches while wearing a full-body inertial-based motion-capture system. Passive flexion and rotation of each hip were measured using a goniometer. Nine pitchers also underwent a computed tomography (CT) pelvic scan, from which subject-specific computer models for each hip were created. Morphologic measurements were calculated from the models, and the models were tested for impingement during simulated pitching. RESULTS Hip flexion was the only passive ROM measurement showing a significant difference between the lead and trail hips (mean difference [MD], 4°; P = .027). During the pitching motion, within-individual differences were discovered between the lead and trail hips for flexion (MD, 34°; P < .0001), extension (MD, 26°; P < .0001), abduction (MD, 8°; P = .026), adduction (MD, 6°; P = .008), external rotation (MD, 20°; P = .001), and total arc of rotation (MD, 13°; P = .001). There were no significant differences in morphologic measures between the lead and trail hips. Dynamic CT modeling did not lead to bony impingement in any subject. CONCLUSIONS Asymptomatic collegiate pitchers approach their extremes of passive hip rotation when executing a fastball pitch. No differences were found in passive hip ROM or morphology other than a small difference in passive hip flexion. Dynamic CT modeling did not show femoroacetabular impingement during the pitching motion. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Hip dysmorphology or poor pitching mechanics may lead to a high risk of bony impingement because pitchers have little reserve hip motion during the fastball pitch.

Abstract
Hip arthroscopy has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years and remains an area of booming technology and interest in orthopedic surgery. As understanding of the pathologic state of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has grown, imaging modalities have increased. Careful consideration of all bony and soft tissue structures in concert with physical examination findings in nonarthritic patients is necessary before any surgical intervention. This article summarizes the authors' approach to imaging in patients suspected of FAI, which facilitates careful patient selection and preoperative planning.
