Abstract
BACKGROUND The available literature referring to the return to play (RTP) and performance after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) has already been comprehensively summarized in team sports such as basketball or American Football. Therefore, in this sense, it is necessary to synthesize evidence relating to the mentioned parameters in soccer players who underwent ACLR. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review was to examine RTP and the performance of soccer players after ACLR. METHODS Three electronic databases, Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed, have been comprehensively searched to identify relevant articles. The following inclusion criteria were applied: (1) the sample of respondents consisted of soccer players irrespective of their age, sex, or level of competition; (2) athletes experienced anterior cruciate ligament injury and underwent ACLR; (3) outcomes estimated referred to the RTP, RTP at the preinjury level of competition, RTP time, performance, and career duration of soccer players; (4) studies were written in the English language. The methodological quality of the research was evaluated using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS). RESULTS Databases searched yielded a total of 694 studies, of which 17 fulfilled the eligibility criteria and were included in the final analysis. These included 3657 soccer players, 2845 males and 812 females, who underwent ACLR and most commonly competed at the elite, national, amateur, and recreational levels. The results obtained indicated that 72% of soccer players successfully RTP and 53% RTP at the preinjury level of participation after ACLR. In addition, recent evidence provided in this literature review demonstrated that mean RTP time was 264 days or 8.7 months. Moreover, the majority of the studies unambiguously suggested that performance related to statistical aspects noticeably deteriorated compared with both the preinjury period and noninjured athletes. The mean career length of soccer players following ACL surgery was approximately between 4 and 5 years. CONCLUSION Although a high percentage of athletes RTP after a relatively short period of absence from the sports field compared with other sports closely related to soccer, ACLR negatively impacts soccer players' performance and career duration.

[PMID: 38835447 PMCID: PMC11144940 DOI: 10.1016/j.eats.2024.102949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 01/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Labral tears most commonly occur anteriorly between the 12- and 3-o'clock positions, with the 12-o'clock position denoted as superior and the 3-o'clock position denoted as anterior. When approaching the 3-o'clock position and beyond, suture anchor placement becomes difficult given the challenging arthroscopic trajectory and an overall thin anterior rim of cortical bone for anchor purchase, resulting in a narrow angle of safe drilling. The purpose of this technical note is to present a safe and reproducible method of suture anchor placement during acetabular labral repair approaching the 3- and 4-o'clock positions, with the 12-o'clock position representing the superior anatomic location and the 3-o'clock position representing the anterior anatomic location regardless of hip laterality. We use an inside-out anchor placement technique to place far medial anchors, which differs from the conventional techniques (e.g., outside-in technique) in which anchor placement is performed along the external margin of the acetabular labrum.

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2024; 34:1259-1267. [PMID: 38145978 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-023-03801-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this meta-analysis is to analyse the literature on plate-assisted reduction during intramedullary nailing of tibial shaft fractures and to compare the rates of infection and nonunion. METHODS The databases Medline, Embase, and Web of Science were searched from inception to February 2022 for literature comparing plate-assisted reduction during intramedullary nailing of extra-articular tibia fractures to standard, closed means of reduction. Data were extracted and pooled in a random effects meta-analysis for the primary outcomes of nonunion and infection risk. RESULTS Five comparative studies were identified including 520 total patients, of which 151 underwent tibial nailing with the use of plate-assisted reduction with an average follow-up time of 17.9 months. Approximately two-thirds of patients retained the plate used to assist reduction during intramedullary nailing (102 of 151). Pooled analysis of the infection rates found no significant difference with plate-assisted intramedullary nailing (Risk Ratio [RR] 0.90, 95% CI 0.49-1.65, p = 0.72), and for nonunion rates, there was also no significant difference with plate-assisted intramedullary nailing (Risk Ratio [RR] 0.80, 95% CI 0.40-1.60, p = 0.53). CONCLUSIONS Plate-assisted reduction during intramedullary nailing of tibia shaft fractures was not associated with an increased risk for nonunion or infection, and can be safely applied as an adjunct for reduction in challenging fracture patterns, without the need for later removal. However, evidence is quite limited and further investigation into the use of provisional plating as a technique is needed as its use in intramedullary nailing continues to expand.

Abstract
Objective To compare time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week, MVPA per day, and steps per day between individuals that were subjected to the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and healthy control group. Design Systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. Data sources Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed have been comprehensively searched to identify relevant investigations. Eligibility criteria for selecting studies An observational research that objectively evaluated physical activity among respondents with a history of ACLR. Results Of 302 records, a total of 12 studies fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Four hundred and forty-three participants underwent the ACLR, 153 men and 290 women. The mean time between anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery and evaluation of analysed outcomes was 34.8 months. The main findings demonstrated that the ACLR group spent less time in weekly MVPA (standardised mean differences (SMD)=-0.43 (95% CI -0.66 to -0.20); mean = -55.86 min (95% CI -86.45 to -25.27); p=0.0003; τ2=0.00), in daily MVPA (SMD=-0.51 95% CI -0.76 to -0.26]; mean = -15.59 min (95% CI -22.93 to -8.25); p<0.0001; τ2=0.00), and they had fewer daily steps (SMD=-0.60 95% CI -0.90 to -0.30); mean = -1724.39 steps (95% CI -2552.27 to -896.50); p<0.0001; τ2=0.00) relative to their non-injured counterparts. Additionally, available investigations indicated that individuals with a history of ACLR participated in 316.8 min of MVPA per week, 67 min in MVPA per day, and 8337 steps per day. Conclusion Long-term after ACLR, participants undergoing ACL surgery were less physically active compared with their non-injured peers, and they did not satisfy recommendations regarding steps per day.

Arthroscopic Bankart with remplissage results in lower rates of recurrent instability with similar range of motion compared to isolated arthroscopic Bankart for anterior glenohumeral instability: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2024; 32:243-256. [PMID: 38258962 DOI: 10.1002/ksa.12054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The addition of the remplissage procedure to an arthroscopic Bankart procedure has been shown to improve clinical outcomes, yet at the expense of potentially decreasing shoulder range of motion. The purpose of this study was to assess recurrent instability, range of motion, functional outcomes and rates of return to sport outcomes in patients undergoing an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair compared to those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair in addition to the remplissage procedure. METHODS According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a search was conducted using three databases (MEDLINE/OVID, EMBASE and PubMed). Retrieved studies were screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria for comparative studies. Data were extracted and meta-analysis performed using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 16 studies (13 level III studies, 2 level II studies and 1 level I) were included with a total of 507 and 704 patients in the Bankart plus remplissage and isolated Bankart repair groups, respectively. No studies reported glenoid bone loss of >20% with the least percentage of glenoid bone loss reported among studies being <1%. There was a significantly increased rate of recurrent dislocations (odds ratio [OR] = 4.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.380-7.48, p < 0.00001) and revision procedures (OR = 3.36, 95% CI: 1.52-7.41, p = 0.003) in the isolated Bankart repair group compared to the Bankart plus remplissage group. Additionally, there were no significant differences between groups in terms of external rotation at side (n.s.), in abduction (n.s.) or at forward flexion (n.s.) at final follow-up. Furthermore, return to preinjury level of sport favoured the Bankart plus remplissage group (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.35-0.85, p = 0.007). CONCLUSION Patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart plus remplissage for anterior shoulder instability have lower rates of recurrent instability, higher rates of return to sport, and no significant difference in range of motion at final follow-up when compared to an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair. Further large, prospective studies are needed to further determine which patients and degree of bone loss would benefit most from augmentation with the remplissage procedure.

Abstract
Background Arthroscopic suture repair is the main treatment option for hip labral tears; however, anchor insertion and placement from arthroscopic portals is difficult. Purpose To quantitatively evaluate the safety of various arthroscopic portals for suture anchor placement during hip labral repair. Study Design Descriptive laboratory study. Methods The computed tomography scans of 20 patients with normally developed hip joints were used to create 3-dimensional models. The distances from the anchor to the articular cartilage (DAC) and from the acetabular insertion point to the cortical bone (DCB) were measured in the anterolateral portal (AL), posterolateral portal (PL), midanterior portal (MAP), medial MAP, and 3 distal anterolateral accessory portals (DALAs): DALA-proximal, DALA-middle, and DALA-distal. Labral tears were divided into anterior (4, 3, and 2 o'clock), lateral (1, 12, and 11 o'clock), and posterior (10, 9, and 8 o'clock) acetabular zones, and the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare DAC and DCB in the zones. The success rate was defined as anchors placed with DAC ≥1 mm and DCB ≥15 mm. Results The DAC was significantly smaller in the AL at 1 o'clock (0.68 ± 0.32 mm; P < .001) and 12 o'clock (0.37 ± 0.30 mm; P < .001), and in the PL at 12 o'clock (-0.35 ± 0.38 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0.60 ± 0.24 mm; P < .001). The DCB was significantly smaller in the DALA-P at 3 o'clock (8.93 ± 2.12 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (9.59 ± 2.84 mm; P < .001), the MAP at 12 o'clock (13.76 ± 3.89 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0.27 ± 0.27 mm; P < .001), and the MMA at 12 o'clock (5.96 ± 2.31 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0 mm; P < .001). Success rates were high for MAP and MMA between 4 o'clock and 1 o'clock, for DALA-proximal at 12 o'clock, for AL at 11 o'clock, and for PL between 10 o'clock and 8-o'clock. Conclusion There were significant differences in the success rate of anchor placement using different portals during hip arthroscopic labral repair. Clinical Relevance MAP is recommended for labral repair between 4 o'clock and 1 o'clock, DALA-P is recommended between 2 o'clock and 12 o'clock, AL is suitable at 11 o'clock, and PL is suitable between 10 o'clock and 8 o'clock.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the utility of the femoroepiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index as a diagnostic tool in hip-preservation surgery. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched from database inception until May 2022 for literature addressing the utility of the FEAR index in patients undergoing hip-preservation surgery, and the results are presented descriptively. RESULTS Overall, there were a total of 11 studies comprising 1,458 patients included in this review. The intraobserver agreement for the FEAR index was reported by 3 of 11 studies (intraclass correlation coefficient range = 0.86-0.99), whereas the interobserver agreement was reported by 8 of 11 studies (intraclass correlation coefficient range = 0.776-1). Among the 5 studies that differentiated between hip instability and hip impingement, the mean FEAR index in 319 patients in the instability group ranged from 3.01 to 13.3°, whereas the mean FEAR index in 239 patients in the impingement group ranged from -10 to -0.77° and the mean FEAR index in 105 patients in the control group ranged from -13 to -7.7°. Three studies defined a specific cutoff value for the FEAR index, with 1 study defining a cutoff value of 5°, which correctly predicted treatment decision between periacetabular osteotomy versus osteochondroplasty 79% of the time with an AUC of 0.89, whereas another defined a cutoff of 2°, which correctly predicted treatment 90% of the time and the last study set a threshold of 3°, which provided an AUC of 0.86 for correctly predicting treatment decision. CONCLUSIONS This review demonstrates that the FEAR index has a high agreement and consistent application, making it a useful diagnostic tool in hip-preservation surgery particularly in patients with borderline dysplastic hips. However, given the variability in FEAR index cutoff values across studies, there is no absolute consensus value that dictates treatment decision.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the return-to-sport rate following arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (ABR), including overall rate of return to sport, rate of return to preinjury level of sport, and the rate of return for specific subgroups such as contact or throwing athletes. METHODS EMBASE, PubMed, and MEDLINE were searched from database inception until February 2022. Studies were screened by 2 reviewers independently and in duplicate for data regarding rates of return to sport following ABR. Data on return to sport and functional outcomes were recorded. Data are presented in a descriptive fashion. RESULTS Overall, 20 studies were included with a total of 736 patients (738 shoulders) who underwent ABR. These patients had a mean age of 28 years (range 14-72 years) and were 83% male. Mean follow-up time after surgery was 45 months (range 12-127 months). The rate of return to any level of sport ranged from 60% to 100%, whereas the rate of return to the preinjury level ranged from 63% to 100%. When we excluded those who underwent ABR as a revision procedure, the rate of return to any level of sport was 68% to 100%. Lastly, the return to sport rates for contact or collision athletes ranged from 80% to 100%, whereas for overhead or throwing athletes it was 46% to 79%. The rate of recurrence of instability postoperatively ranged from 0% to 20% in included studies. CONCLUSIONS For athletes with anterior shoulder instability, ABR led to a high rate of return to sport along with a low rate of recurrence of instability. Although most athletes are able to return to the same level of sport, certain groups such as throwing athletes may face greater difficulty.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the reliability and diagnostic accuracy of tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance versus tibial tubercle-posterior cruciate ligament (TT-PCL) distance, and to determine cutoff values of these measurements for pathological diagnosis in the context of patellar instability. METHODS Three databases MEDLINE, PubMed and EMBASE were searched from inception to October 5, 2022 for literature outlining comparisons between TT-TG and TT-PCL in patellar instability patients. The authors adhered to the PRISMA and R-AMSTAR guidelines as well as the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Data on inter-rater and intra-rater reliability, receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve parameters such as area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity, as well as odds ratios, cutoff values for pathological diagnosis and correlations between TT-TG and TT-PCL were recorded. The MINORS score was used for all studies in order to perform a quality assessment of included studies. RESULTS A total of 23 studies comprising 2839 patients (2922 knees) were included in this review. Inter-rater reliability ranged from 0.71 to 0.98 and 0.55 to 0.99 for TT-TG and TT-PCL, respectively. Intra-rater reliability ranged from 0.74 to 0.99 and 0.88 to 0.98 for TT-TG and TT-PCL, respectively. AUC measuring diagnostic accuracy of patellar instability for TT-TG ranged from 0.80 to 0.84 and 0.58 to 0.76 for TT-PCL. Five studies found TT-TG to have more discriminatory power than TT-PCL at distinguishing patients with patellar instability from patients who do not. Sensitivity and specificity ranged from 21 to 85% and 62 to 100%, respectively, for TT-TG. Sensitivity and specificity ranged from 30 to 76% and 46 to 86%, respectively, for TT-PCL. Odds ratio values ranged from 1.06 to 14.02 for TT-TG and 0.98 to 6.47 for TT-PCL. Proposed cutoff TT-TG and TT-PCL values for predicting patellar instability ranged from 15.0 to 21.4 mm and 19.8 to 28.0 mm, respectively. Eight studies reported significant positive correlations between TT-TG and TT-PCL. CONCLUSION TT-TG resulted in overall similar reliability, sensitivity and specificity as TT-PCL; however, TT-TG has better diagnostic accuracy than TT-PCL in the context of patellar instability as per AUC and odds ratio values. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV.

Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament, Medial Quadriceps Tendon-Femoral Ligament, and Medial Patellotibial Ligament Reconstruction for Patellar Instability: A Technical Note. Arthrosc Tech 2023; 12:e329-e335. [PMID: 37013008 PMCID: PMC10066251 DOI: 10.1016/j.eats.2022.11.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 04/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Lateral patellar dislocations often occur in a young, athletic population of recurrent dislocators with generalized laxity and an interest in returning to an active lifestyle. A recent appreciation for the distal patellotibial complex has directed surgeons toward attempting to re-create the native anatomy and knee biomechanics during medial patellar reconstructive procedures. By reconstructing the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) in addition to the medial patella-femoral ligament (MPFL) and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament (MQTFL), the current article describes a potentially more stable construct that can be utilized in patients with subluxation with the knee in full extension, patellar instability with the knee in deep flexion, genu recurvatum, and generalized hyperlaxity. Additionally, the current technique utilizes a tibialis anterior allograft. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe, in detail, the current authors' technique for a combined MPFL, MQTFL, and MPTL reconstruction.

Labral Tears and Chondral Lesions Are Common Comorbidities Identified During Endoscopic Repair of Gluteal Tendon Tears for Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome: A Systematic Review. Arthroscopy 2023; 39:856-864.e1. [PMID: 35817376 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2022.06.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Revised: 06/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The primary purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature on intraoperative findings during endoscopic treatment for greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS). Secondary outcomes were preoperative imaging findings and postoperative functional outcome measures. METHODS Medline, PubMED, and Embase databases were searched from inception (1946, 1966, and 1974, respectively), to July 15, 2021, for records reporting intraoperative findings during endoscopic surgery for GTPS. Studies of Level I-IV evidence were eligible. All studies were assessed for quality using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) score. RESULTS Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Most patients underwent endoscopic greater trochanteric bursectomy with repair of the gluteal tendons. Intraoperative conditions reported were gluteal tendon tears usually involving the gluteus medius tendon, labral tears, and chondral lesions. Three studies reported an average of 9% of patients who subsequently underwent conversion to total hip arthroplasty. Pain was assessed using the visual analog scale, and functional outcome measures were measured using the modified Harris Hip Score, Non-Arthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score Sport-Specific subscale, Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living subscale, and iHOT-12. Pain and functional outcomes demonstrated significant improvement in nearly all the studies where they were reported. CONCLUSIONS Patients who underwent endoscopic management of GTPS commonly underwent repair of gluteal tendon tears, and in many cases had concomitant labral tears and chondral lesions identified intraoperatively. There were low rates of adverse events, repair failure, and revision surgery. Patient-reported functional outcomes were improved at follow-up at least 1 year postoperatively. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, systematic review of level IV or better investigations.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review is to present the most common causes, diagnostic features, treatment options and outcomes of patients with hip micro-instability. METHODS Three online databases (MEDLINE, Embase, and PubMed) were searched from database inception March 2022, for literature addressing the diagnosis and management of patients with hip micro-instability. Given the lack of consistent reporting of patient outcomes across studies, the results are presented in a descriptive summary fashion. RESULTS Overall, there were a total of 9 studies including 189 patients (193 hips) included in this review of which 89% were female. All studies were level IV evidence with a mean MINORS score of 12 (range: 10-13). The most commonly used features for diagnosis of micro-instability on history were anterior pain in 146 (78%) patients and a subjective feeling of instability with gait in 143 (81%) patients, while the most common feature on physical examination was the presence of anterior apprehension with combined hip extension and external rotation in 123 (65%) patients. The most common causes of micro-instability were iatrogenic instability secondary to either capsular insufficiency or cam over-resection in 76 (62%) patients and soft tissue laxity in 38 (31%) patients. CONCLUSION The most common symptom of micro-instability on history was anterior hip pain and on physical exam was pain with hip extension and external rotation. There are many treatment options and when managed appropriately based on the precise cause of micro-instability, patients may demonstrate improved outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the efficacy of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) repair versus nonoperative rehabilitation treatment on the rate of patellar redislocation and functional outcomes in skeletally mature patients with traumatic, first-time patellar dislocations. MATERIALS AND METHODS MEDLINE, PubMed and EMBASE were searched from database inception to May 2022 for studies examining the management options for acute first-time patellar dislocations. This study was conducted in accordance with PRISMA and R-AMSTAR guidelines. Data on redislocation rates, functional outcomes including the Kujala score for anterior knee pain, and complication rates were extracted. A meta-analysis was used to pool the mean postoperative Kujala score and calculate the proportion of patients sustaining redislocations using a random effects model. Quality assessment of included studies was performed for all included studies using the MINORS and Detsky scores. RESULTS This review included a total of 25 studies and 1,361 patients. The pooled mean redislocation rate in 15 studies comprising 798 patients in the rehabilitation group was 30% (95% CI 25-36%, I2 = 65%). Moreover, the pooled mean redislocation rate in 10 studies comprising 170 patients undergoing MPFL repair was 7% (95% CI 3-12%, I2 = 30%). The pooled mean postoperative Kujala score in 8 studies comprising 396 patients in the rehabilitation group was 82.5 (95% CI 78.3-86.8, I2 = 91%), compared to a score of 88 (95% CI 87-90, I2 = 76%) in 3 studies comprising 94 patients in the repair group. Range of motion deficits was reported in 3.8% of 893 patients in the rehabilitation group and 2.0% of 205 patients in the repair group. CONCLUSION MPFL repair resulted in a lower rate of redislocation, less knee pain, and noninferiority with respect to a range of motion deficits compared to nonoperative treatment for the management of acute first-time patellar dislocations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the effect of early MPFL reconstruction versus rehabilitation on the rate of recurrent patellar dislocations and functional outcomes in skeletally mature patients with traumatic, first-time patellar dislocation. METHODS Three online databases MEDLINE, PubMed and EMBASE were searched from database inception (1946, 1966, and 1974, respectively) to August 20th, 2021 for literature addressing the management of patients sustaining acute first-time patellar dislocations. Data on redislocation rates, functional outcomes using the Kujala score, and complication rates were recorded. A meta-analysis was used to pool the mean postoperative Kujala score, as well as calculate the proportion of patients sustaining redislocation episodes using a random effects model. Quality assessment of included studies was performed for all included studies using the MINORS and Detsky scores. RESULTS A total of 19 studies and 1,165 patients were included in this review. The pooled mean redislocation rate in 14 studies comprising 734 patients in the rehabilitation group was 30% (95% CI 25-36%, I2 = 67%). Moreover, the pooled mean redislocation rate in 5 studies comprising 318 patients undergoing early MPFL reconstruction was 7% (95% CI 2-17%, I2 = 70%). The pooled mean postoperative Kujala anterior knee pain score in 7 studies comprising 332 patients in the rehabilitation group was 81 (95% CI 78-85, I2 = 78%), compared to a score of 87 (95% CI 85-89, I2 = 0%, Fig. 4) in 3 studies comprising 54 patients in the reconstruction group. CONCLUSION Management of acute first-time patellar dislocations with MPFL reconstruction resulted in a lower rate of redislocation of 7% in the reconstruction group vs 30% in the rehabilitation group and a higher Kujala score compared to the rehabilitation group. The information this review provides will help surgeons guide their decision to choose early MPFL reconstruction versus rehabilitation when treating patients with first-time patellar dislocations and may guide future studies on the topic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While labral repair has been widely adopted as the first line treatment for labral injury during hip arthroscopy, there is no widespread consensus on the procedural technique, including the number of anchors that should be used to avoid recurrent instability and revision surgery. PURPOSE To determine if anchor density can predict patient-reported outcomes after arthroscopic labral repair in the hip. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients aged 18 to 50 years who underwent primary hip arthroscopic surgery with labral repair between January 2011 and December 2016 were identified from a prospectively collected database. Exclusion criteria consisted of previous ipsilateral surgery, osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade >1), and severe cartilage defects (Outerbridge grade III/IV) or concomitant labral reconstruction, capsular reconstruction, or microfracture. Minimum 2-year patient-reported outcomes (modified Harris Hip Score [mHHS], Hip Outcome Score [HOS]-Activities of Daily Living [ADL], HOS-Sport Specific Subscale [SSS], 12-Item Short Form Health Survey [SF-12]), rates of achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) for each score, revision surgery rate, and rate of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were compared based on anchor density (number of anchors per millimeter of labral tear). RESULTS A total of 634 hips (575 patients) with a mean age of 30.4 ± 9.5 years (range, 18.0-49.9 years) met inclusion criteria. The mean labral tear size was 31 ± 11 mm (range, 2-70 mm) with a median number of anchors used for labral repair of 3 (range, 1-7) and mean anchor density of 0.11 ± 0.08 anchors (range, 0.03-1.33) per millimeter of labral tear. Hips with a minimum 2-year follow-up (451/634 [71.1%]) had significant improvements on the mHHS, HOS-ADL, HOS-SSS, and SF-12 Physical Component Summary (P < .001 for all). There was no significant correlation detected between anchor density or number of anchors used and postoperative scores (correlation coefficient range, -0.05 to 0.17; P > .05 for all). The rate of revision surgery was 6.4% (28 patients), with 8 hips found to have labral tears and/or deficiency on revision. Additionally, 6 hips (1.3%) had to undergo THA at a mean of 3.6 ± 2.1 years (range, 2.0-5.5 years). CONCLUSION Anchor density did not have a correlation with postoperative outcomes, achieving the MCID or PASS, revision hip arthroscopic surgery, complications, or conversion to THA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this review was to investigate the average glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD) in the dominant arm of adolescent overhead athletes and to examine the association with shoulder and elbow injuries. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING MEDLINE, Embase, and PubMed were searched from inception to August 1, 2020. PARTICIPANTS Adolescent overhead athletes with glenohumeral range of motion (ROM) measurements. INTERVENTIONS Nonoperative treatments of GIRD. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Glenohumeral ROM measurements comparing the dominant and nondominant extremities were pooled in a meta-analysis. RESULTS Twenty-five studies were included in this review, which involved 2522 overhead athletes. Pooled internal rotation (IR) deficit of the dominant arm was 9.60° (95% confidence interval [CI] 7.87°-11.32°, P < 0.00001), with an external rotation (ER) gain of 6.78° (95% CI 4.97°-8.59°, P < 0.00001) and a total ROM (TROM) deficit of 1.78° (95% CI -0.70° to 4.26°, P = 0.16). The association between GIRD and shoulder or elbow injury was not clearly defined. Two studies reported treatment, and both used nonoperative treatment in the form of physiotherapy and sleeper stretches. CONCLUSIONS The adolescent overhead athlete has roughly 10° of IR deficit in their dominant arm, accompanied by nearly 7° of ER gain, with similar ROM measurements for injured and uninjured athletes. Those with pathological GIRD have a greater degree of IR deficit, but without an accompanying compensatory increase in ER, leading to a TROM deficit of nearly 15°. Surgical treatment in the absence of other indications is rare, whereas physiotherapy and sleeper stretches remain the first-line treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this review is to provide a summary of the techniques and outcomes of various capsular management strategies in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The information this review provides on capsular management strategies will provide surgeons with operative guidance and decision-making when managing patients with FAI lesions arthroscopically. METHODS Three databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched from database inception to November 2nd 2021, for literature addressing capsular management of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI. All level I-IV data on capsular management strategy as well as postoperative functional outcomes were recorded. A meta-analysis was used to combine the mean postoperative functional outcomes using a random-effects model. RESULTS Overall, there were a total of 36 studies and 4744 patients included in this review. The mean MINORS score was 10.7 (range 8-13) for non-comparative studies and 17.6 (range 15-20) for comparative studies. Three comparative studies in 1302 patients examining the proportion of patients reaching the MCID for the mHHS score in patients undergoing interportal capsulotomy with either capsular repair or no repair found that the capsular repair group had a higher odds ratio of reaching the MCID at 1.46 (95% CI 0.61-3.45, I2 = 67%, Fig. 2, Table 3); however, this difference was not significant with a p value of 0.39. When looking at only level 1 and 2 studies, four studies in 1308 patients reporting on the mHHS score in patients undergoing capsular closure regardless of capsulotomy type, found a pooled standardized mean difference in the mHHS score of 2.1 (95% CI 1.7-2.55, I2 = 70%, Fig. 3), while four studies in 402 patients reporting on the mHHS score in patients not undergoing capsular closure regardless of capsulotomy type found a pooled standardized mean difference in the mHHS score of 1.46 (95% CI 1.2-1.7, I2 = 30%, Fig. 4). CONCLUSION This review may demonstrate improved postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing complete capsular closure regardless of capsulotomy type based on postoperative mHHS score. Furthermore, this review may suggest improved postoperative outcomes after closure of an interportal capsulotomy. There are limited published outcome data regarding T-type capsulotomy without closure. This review provides surgeons with operative guidance on capsular management strategies when treating patients with FAI lesions arthroscopically. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal anchor placement and trajectory when repairing acetabular labral tears during hip arthroscopy with the primary focus on the 12 to 3 o’clock positions on the acetabular rim. Methods Three-dimensional computational models of the pelvis were generated from 13 cadaveric specimens using 3D slicer medical imaging software. A set of cones, consistent with the dimensions of a commonly used sutured anchor, were virtually embedded into the models at the 12, 1, 2, and 3 o’clock positions around the acetabulum. Mirror images of the cone were extended toward the superficial aspect of the hip. The volume of bone occupied by the virtual anchor, the trajectory angle, and the volume of overlap between adjacent anchor locations were calculated. Results Bone volume was significantly greater at the 1 o’clock position (4196.2 [1190.2] mm3) compared with all other positions (P < .001). The 3 o’clock position had the smallest volume (629.2 [180.0] mm3) and was also significantly less than the 12 (P < .001) and 2 o’clock (P = .014) positions). The trajectory angle of 32.04 [5.05]°) at the 1 o’clock position was significantly greater compared with all other positions (P < .001). The least amount of adjacent position overlap occurred between the 2 and 3 o’clock positions (.12 [.42] mm3), and this was statistically smaller than the overlap between cones at the 12 and 1 o’clock positions (214.28 [251.88] mm3; P = .029) and the 1 and 2 o’clock positions (139.51 [177.14] mm3; P = .044). Conclusions Trajectory angles and the thickness of bone around the acetabulum were the greatest at the 12 to 1 o’clock positions, with the 1 o’clock position identified as that with the largest trajectory angle for safe anchor insertion. Clinical Relevance The use of a single, workhorse portal, for anchor insertion may not be recommended and careful selection of a portal allowing a direct approach should be used for anterior anchor insertion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Posterior shoulder instability accounts for a small proportion of all shoulder instability, although it can affect athletes of all types, from contact to overhead athletes. Surgical treatment is quite successful in these patients; however, the literature reports a wide range of rates of return to sport. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose was to determine the return-to-sport rates after surgical stabilization for posterior shoulder instability. It was hypothesized that patients would experience a high rate of return to sport. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Embase, PubMed, and MEDLINE were searched for relevant literature from database inception until April 2020, and studies were screened by 2 reviewers independently and in duplicate for studies reporting rates of return to sport after surgical management of posterior shoulder instability. Demographic data as well as data on return to sport and functional outcomes were recorded. A meta-analysis of proportions was used to combine the rates of return to sport using a random effects model. A risk of bias was assessed for all included studies. RESULTS Overall, 32 studies met inclusion criteria and comprised 1100 patients (1153 shoulders) with a mean age of 22.8 years (range, 11-65) and a mean follow-up of 43.2 months (range, 10-228). The pooled rate of return to any level of sport was 88% (95% CI, 84%-92%; I2 = 68.7%). In addition, the pooled rate of return to the preinjury level was 68% (95% CI, 60%-76%; I2 = 79%). Moreover, the pooled return-to-sport rate for contact athletes was 94% (95% CI, 90%-97%; I2 = 0%), while for throwing athletes it was 88% (95% CI, 83%-92%; I2 = 0%). CONCLUSION Surgical management of posterior shoulder instability resulted in a high rate of return to sport, as well as significant pain reduction and functional improvement in most patients. However, only two-thirds of athletes can return to their preinjury levels of sport.

Abstract
It is essential to be aware of the anatomy and biomechanics of the acetabular labrum in order to understand why it should be conserved. Vascularization comes from the capsule and also from the bone. The joint side contains numerous nerve endings, which explains why labral lesions are painful. It is involved in joint stabilization by maintaining a negative pressure inside the joint able to resist distraction. It acts as a seal. There are two main suture techniques: trans- and peri-labral. Translabral suture is better suited to a wide and solid labrum free of degenerative lesions. Both techniques should be known, and may be associated. Results are comparable. It is essential to manage the underlying pathology responsible for the labral lesion. Joint degeneration is associated with poor prognosis. It needs to be recognized and discussed with the patient, to avoid unrealistic expectations.

A high rate of children and adolescents return to sport after surgical treatment of osteochondritis dissecans of the elbow: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2021; 29:4041-4066. [PMID: 33620512 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06489-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2020] [Accepted: 02/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the return to sport rates following surgical management of ostechondritis dissecans of the elbow. METHODS The databases EMBASE, PubMed, and MEDLINE were searched for relevant literature from database inception until August 2020 and studies were screened by two reviewers independently and in duplicate for studies reporting rates of return to sport following surgical management of posterior shoulder instability. A meta-analysis of proportions was used to combine the rates of return to sport using a random effects model. A risk of bias assessment was performed for all included studies using the MINORS score. RESULTS Overall, 31 studies met inclusion criteria and comprised of 548 patients (553 elbows) with a median age of 14 (range 10-18.5) and a median follow-up of 39 months (range 5-156). Of the 31 studies included, 14 studies (267 patients) had patients who underwent open stabilization, 11 studies (152 patients) had patients who underwent arthroscopic stabilization, and 6 studies (129 patients) had patients who underwent arthroscopic-assisted stabilization. The pooled rate of return to any level of sport was 97.6% (95% CI 94.8-99.5%, I2 = 32%). In addition, the pooled rate of return to the preinjury level was 79.1% (95% CI 70-87.1%, I2 = 78%). Moreover, the pooled rate of return to sport rate at the competitive level was 86.9% (95% CI 77.3-94.5%, I2 = 64.3%), and the return to sport for overhead athletes was 89.4% (95% CI 82.5-95.1%, I2 = 59%). The overall return to sport after an arthroscopic procedure was 96.4% (95% CI 91.3-99.6%, I2 = 1%) and for an open procedure was 97.8% (95% CI 93.7-99.9%, I2 = 46%). All functional outcome scores showed improvement postoperatively and the most common complication was revision surgery for loose body removal (19 patients). CONCLUSION Surgical management of osteochondritis dissecans of the elbow resulted in a high rate of return to sport, including in competitive and overhead athletes. Similar rates of return to sport were noted across both open and arthroscopic procedures. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV.

There is no definite consensus on the adequate radiographic correction in arthroscopic osteochondroplasty for femoroacetabular impingement: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2021; 29:2799-2818. [PMID: 34173836 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06645-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate and define what is considered an adequate radiographic correction in arthroscopic osteochondroplasty for FAI and to secondarily assess how radiographic outcomes relate to patient reported outcomes and complications. METHODS The databases EMBASE, PubMed, and MEDLINE were searched for relevant literature from database inception until January 2021. Studies were screened by two reviewers independently and in duplicate for studies reporting on post-operative radiographic outcomes in arthroscopic osteochondroplasty for FAI. Data on radiographic outcomes as well as data reporting functional outcomes and complications were recorded. A meta-analysis was used to combine the mean pre- and post-operative radiographic outcomes using a random effects model. A risk of bias assessment was performed for all included studies using the MINORS score. RESULTS The most commonly reported radiographic outcome was the alpha angle with a pooled mean post-operative angle of 44° (95% CI 41°-46°), and mean pre- to post-surgical difference of - 19° (- 22 to - 16, I2 = 96%), followed by the LCEA with a pooled mean post-operative angle of 30° (95% CI 29-31) and mean difference after surgery of - 4° (- 6 to - 1, I2 = 97%,). Eleven studies reported on the correlation between radiographic and clinical outcomes with no consistent consensus correlation found amongst the included studies. Similarly, six studies correlated radiographic outcomes with conversion to THA with no consistent consensus correlation found amongst the included studies. CONCLUSION Based on this review, the main conclusion is that there is no consensus definition on the optimal radiographic correction for FAI and there was no consistent correlation between radiographic correction and functional outcomes. However, based on the uniform improvement in functional outcomes, this review suggests a post-operative alpha angle target of 44° with a correction target of 19° and LCEA target of 30° with a correction target of 3°.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this review was to systematically examine the literature surrounding elbow arthroscopy for pediatric patients and to assess indications, functional outcomes, and complication rates. METHODS This systematic review was carried out in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. EMBASE, PubMed, and MEDLINE were searched for relevant literature from inception until December 2019, and studies were screened by 2 reviewers independently and in duplicate for those investigating elbow arthroscopy in a pediatric population (<18 years). Editorials, review articles, and case reports were excluded. Demographic data and data on surgical indications, treatment outcomes, and complications were recorded. A methodological quality assessment was performed for all included studies using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies. RESULTS Overall, 19 studies, all of level IV evidence, were identified with a total of 492 patients (513 elbows). The patient population was 22.3% female with a mean age of 14.0 years (range, 4.0-15.7) and a mean follow-up time of 33.0 months (range, 7.4-96 months). Twelve studies (263 patients) exclusively recruited patients with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), although other indications for elbow arthroscopy included arthrofibrosis (50 patients), elbow fracture (37 patients), medial ulnar collateral ligament injury (31 patients), and posterior impingement (17 patients). All 13 reporting studies showed a significant improvement in the elbow flexion-extension arc, and 4 of 5 that reported a functional outcome score before and after surgery demonstrating a significant improvement. Last, the overall complication rates ranged from 0% to 23.8%, with a total of 8 instances of neurological injury (5 ulnar, 2 radial, 1 unspecified), all being transient and resolving within 3 to 6 months. CONCLUSION Although elbow arthroscopy is primarily being performed for OCD in children and adolescents, there is evidence surrounding several other potential indications. Case series published to date have demonstrated significant improvements in functional outcomes and low rates of major complications. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, systematic review of level IV studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release is a surgical treatment option for painful snapping hips, although it has been associated with controversy surrounding potential complications including decreased hip flexion strength, iatrogenic hip instability, and iliopsoas atrophy. PURPOSE To systematically assess the efficacy and safety of arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy during hip arthroscopic surgery as an intervention for painful snapping hips. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS A total of 3 online databases (Embase, PubMed, and MEDLINE) were searched from database inception until September 2019 for studies investigating iliopsoas tenotomy during hip arthroscopic surgery. Studies were screened by 2 reviewers independently and in duplicate, and studies investigating arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release were included. Demographic data as well as data on treatment success, functional outcome scores, and radiological outcomes were recorded. A risk of bias assessment was performed for all included studies. RESULTS Overall, 21 studies were identified with a total of 824 patients (875 hips). These patients were 82.5% female (680/824), with a mean age of 28.1 years (range, 12-62 years) and mean follow-up of 32.1 months (range, 3-73 months). Arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy was performed at the level of the labrum in 811 hips (92.7%) or the lesser trochanter in 64 hips (7.3%). The overall reported success rate of the procedure in resolving snapping hips was 93.0% (266/286), and all studies reported an improvement in functional outcome scores. Only 6 studies (93 hips) discussed postoperative hip flexion strength, with complete recovery of strength reported in 4 studies (47 hips) and mild decreases reported in the other 2 studies (46 hips). Iliopsoas atrophy was evaluated radiologically (3 studies; 66 hips) and was found postoperatively in 92.4% (61/66) of hips. No major complications were reported. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon was effective in alleviating pain and persistent clicking associated with a snapping hip. Although patients demonstrated some early postoperative weakness and iliopsoas atrophy on radiological imaging, the results from studies to date showed satisfactory clinical function and return to sports/activities. High-quality comparative studies are needed to further assess arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon release to determine the optimal technique and location of tendon release.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Labral tears are the most common abnormalities in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery. Appropriate management is crucial, as it has been shown that better overall outcomes can be achieved with labral restoration. PURPOSE To report the patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at minimum 2-year follow-up of patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Data were prospectively collected for patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for FAIS for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique. Patients were excluded if they had prior hip conditions, prior ipsilateral surgery, Tönnis grade >1, a lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) <25°, or workers' compensation claims. Preoperative and postoperative scores at minimum 2-year follow-up were recorded for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain. The proportion of patients who achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) or patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) for the mHHS, HOS-SSS, and iHOT-12 were also reported. RESULTS A total of 309 hips were included. The mean patient age was 36.2 years (range, 12.8-75.9 years). The mean preoperative LCEA and alpha angle were 31.9° and 57.1°, respectively. A significant improvement on the mHHS (62.6 ± 15.7 preoperatively vs 86.9 ± 16.2 at 2-year follow-up), NAHS (63.1 ± 16.7 vs 86.1 ± 16.7), and HOS-SSS (39.8 ± 22.0 vs 74.2 ± 27.3) was found (P < .001 for all). A significant decrease was shown for VAS scores (P < .001). Also, 78.6% and 82.2% of patients achieved the MCID and PASS for the mHHS, respectively; 60.8% and 69.9% of patients met the MCID and PASS for the HOS-SSS, respectively; and the MCID for the iHOT-12 was met by 77.3% of patients. CONCLUSION In the setting of FAIS and labral tears, patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique demonstrated significant improvement in several validated PRO measures, the VAS pain score, and patient satisfaction at a minimum 2 years of follow-up. Based on this evidence, labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique seems to be a safe option.

Editorial Commentary: What is the Real Story Behind "What Makes Suture Anchor Use Safe in Hip Arthroscopy?". Arthroscopy 2019; 35:1294-1295. [PMID: 30954120 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2018.12.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2018] [Accepted: 12/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Reproducibly safe hip suture anchor placement requires clear visualization of the acetabular rim and acetabular articular cartilage and a correct trajectory when the anchor sites and position are selected and when depth stop drilling is done. I favor the lateral decubitus approach over the supine approach and do an extensive capsulotomy for global access to the central and peripheral compartments, thus requiring fewer distraction forces and minimal time spent in the central compartment. My views of the acetabular rim are obtained from the periphery most of the time, and as such, suture anchor drilling and placement are always visualized during simultaneous viewing of both the bony acetabular rim and articular cartilage; thus, the trajectory is targeted with clear visualization of the drill hole from the time of creation to anchor placement. If the drill inadvertently penetrates the articular cartilage, early recognition of a cartilage bulge will allow for backing out and redirection.
