Abstract
Hip dysplasia is a pathomorphological deformity that leads to decreased acetabular coverage and hip instability. Many different radiographic measurements have been explored to characterize hip dysplasia, including the lateral center edge angle (LCEA), femoro-epiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index, and Tonnis angle. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers three-dimensional characterization of the hip pathomorphology that may be more detailed than two-dimensional radiographs, as well as a modality that is free of radiation. Recent research shows that dysplastic hips are associated with significantly thinner ligament thickness compared to non-dysplastic hips. The iliofemoral ligament (IFL) is the most important hip capsular structure and helps to stabilize the hip joint, particularly in hip extension and external rotation. Differences in IFL thickness may help to explain why those with dysplasia are more prone to hip instability, above and beyond their acetabular under coverage. This reiterates the need for routine capsular closure and/or plication in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome in order to prevent further instability.

Persistently elevated joint contact stress after periacetabular osteotomy is associated with joint failure at minimum 10-year follow-up. J Orthop Res 2024. [PMID: 39030968 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/22/2024]
Abstract
Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a common treatment for prearthritic hip dysplasia. The goal of this investigation was to determine if computationally assessed hip contact mechanics are associated with joint failure at minimum 10-year follow-up. One hundred patients with hip dysplasia (125 hips) completed patient-reported outcomes an average of 13.8 years (range 10.0-18.0 years) after PAO. 63/125 hips were classified as having failed: 26 converted to total hip arthroplasty (THA) and 37 with significant disability indicated by modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) ≤ 70. Differences in discrete element analysis-computed contact mechanics were compared between (1) preserved and failed hips, (2) preserved hips and hips that failed by THA, and (3) preserved hips and hips that failed by mHHS ≤ 70. Failed hips had significantly higher preoperative contact stress and exposure metrics (p < 0.001-0.009) than preserved hips. Failed hips also had significantly higher postoperative peak contact stress (p = 0.018), higher mean contact stress (p < 0.001), and smaller contact area (p = 0.044). When assessed based on type of failure, hips that failed by THA had significantly higher postoperative contact stress and exposure metrics than preserved hips (p < 0.001-0.020). In hips that failed by mHHS ≤ 70, mean postoperative contact stress exposure was significantly higher compared to preserved hips (p = 0.043). Despite improved radiographic measures of dysplasia after PAO, pathologic joint contact mechanics can persist and predict treatment failure at minimum 10 years after surgery. Operative and nonoperative techniques specifically intended to reduce harmful contact mechanics in dysplastic hips may have the potential to further improve clinical outcomes after PAO.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:532. [PMID: 38987711 PMCID: PMC11238469 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07652-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Sauvé-Kapandji (S-K) method is a surgical procedure performed for chronic deformities of the distal radial ulnar joint (DRUJ). Changes to the joint contact surface from pre- to postoperatively under physiological in vivo conditions have not yet been determined for this useful treatment. The aim of the present study was therefore to compare the articular contact area of the wrist joint between before and after the S-K method for DRUJ disorders. METHODS The SK method was performed for 15 patients with DRUJ osteoarthritis and ulnar impaction syndrome. We calculated the Mayo Wrist Score as the patient's clinical findings and created 3-dimensional bone models of cases in which the S-K method was performed and calculated the contact area and shift in the center of the contact area using customized software. RESULTS The Mean modified Mayo Wrist Score improved significantly from 60.3 preoperatively to 80.3 postoperatively (P < 0.01). Scaphoid contact area to the radius increased significantly from 112.6 ± 37.0 mm2 preoperatively to 127.5 ± 27.8 mm2 postoperatively (P = 0.03). Lunate contact area to radius-ulna was 121.3 ± 43.3 mm2 preoperatively and 112.5 ± 37.6 mm2 postoperatively, but this decrease was not significant (P = 0.38). Contact area ratio of scaphoid to lunate increased significantly from 1.01 ± 0.4 preoperatively to 1.20 ± 0.3 postoperatively (P = 0.02). Postoperative translations of the center of the scaphoid and lunate contact areas were decomposed into ulnar and proximal directions. Ulnar and proximal translation distances of the scaphoid contact area were 0.8 ± 1.7 mm and 0.4 ± 0.6 mm, respectively, and those of the lunate contact area were 1.1 ± 1.7 mm and 0.4 ± 1.1 mm, respectively. This study revealed changes in wrist contact area and center of the contact area before and after the S-K method. CONCLUSION These results may accurately indicate changes in wrist joint contact area from pre- to postoperatively using the S-K method for patients with DRUJ disorder. Evaluation of changes in contact area due to bone surface modeling of the wrist joint using 3DCT images may be useful in considering surgical methods.

Arthroscopy 2024; 40:745-751. [PMID: 37419221 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.06.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the differences in the prevalence of ligamentum teres (LT) tears and other radiographic measurements in borderline dysplasia of the hip (BDDH) with/without microinstability and to evaluate the associations between these imaging findings and the prevalence of microinstability in patients with BDDH. METHODS This was a retrospective study of symptomatic patients with BDDH (18° ≤ lateral center-edge angle <25°) treated with arthroscopy in our hospital between January 2016 and December 2021. These patients were divided into the BDDH with microinstability (mBDDH) group and the stable BDDH (nBDDH) group. The radiographic parameters associated with hip joint stability, such as the state of LT, acetabular versions, femoral neck version, Tönnis angle, combined anteversions, and anterior/posterior acetabular coverage, were reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS There were 54 patients (49 female/5 male, 26.7 ± 6.9 years) in the mBDDH group and 81 patients (74 female/7 male, 27.2 ± 7.7 years) in the nBDDH group. The mBDDH group had greater LT tear (43/54 vs 5/81) and general laxity rates, increased femoral neck version, acetabular version and combined anteversion (52.4 ± 5.9 vs 41.5 ± 7.1 at 3-o'clock level) than the nBDDH group. Binary logistic regression showed that LT tears (odds ratio 6.32, 95% confidence interval 1.38-28.8; P = .02; R2 = .458) and combined anteversion at the 3-o'clock level (odds ratio 1.42, 95% confidence interval 1.09-1.84; P < .01; R2 = .458) were independent predictors of microinstability in patients with BDDH. The cutoff value of combined anteversion at 3-o'clock level was 49.5°. In addition, LT tear was correlated with increased combined anteversion at 3-o'clock level in patients with BDDH (P < .01, η2 = 0.29). CONCLUSIONS LT tears and increased combined anteversion at the 3-o'clock level on the acetabular clockface were associated with hip microinstability in patients with BDDH, suggesting that patients with BDDH and LT tears might have a greater prevalence of anterior microinstability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiographic evaluation plays an important role in detecting and grading hip dysplasia. Acetabular sector angles (ASAs) measure the degree of femoral head coverage provided by the acetabulum on computed tomographic (CT) scans. In this study, we aimed to determine ASA values at different axial levels in a control cohort with asymptomatic, high-functioning hips without underlying hip pathology and a study group with symptomatic, dysplastic hips that underwent periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), thereby defining the ASA thresholds for hip dysplasia. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study evaluating a control group of 51 patients (102 hips) and a study group of 66 patients (72 hips). The control group was high-functioning and asymptomatic, with an Oxford Hip Score of >43, did not have osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade ≤1), underwent a pelvic CT scan, had a mean age (and standard deviation) of 52.1 ± 5.5 years, and was 52.9% female. The study group had symptomatic hip dysplasia treated with PAO, had a mean age of 29.5 ± 7.3 years, and 83.3% was female. Anterior ASA (AASA) and posterior ASA (PASA) were measured at 3 axial CT levels to determine equatorial, intermediate, and proximal ASA. The thresholds for dysplasia were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, including the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS Patients with dysplasia had significantly smaller ASAs compared with the control group; the differences were most pronounced for proximal AASAs and proximal and intermediate PASAs. The control group had a mean proximal PASA of 162° ± 17°, yielding a threshold for dysplasia of 137° (AUC, 0.908). The mean intermediate PASA for the control group was 117° ± 11°, yielding a threshold of 107° (AUC, 0.904). The threshold for anterior dysplasia was 133° for proximal AASA (AUC, 0.859) and 57° for equatorial AASA (AUC, 0.868). The threshold for posterior dysplasia was 102° for intermediate PASA (AUC, 0.933). CONCLUSIONS Measurement of ASA is a reliable tool to identify focal acetabular deficiency with high accuracy, aiding diagnosis and management. A proximal PASA of <137° or an intermediate PASA of <107° should alert clinicians to the presence of dysplasia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Diagnostic Level III .

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
PURPOSE Insufficient coverage causes hip joint instability and results in hip pain. Anterior hip coverage can be determined on both pelvic anteroposterior (AP) radiographs and false profile (FP) radiographs. Four parameters are commonly used to determine the anterior coverage on pelvic AP radiographs: the crossover index, crossover sign, anterior wall index (AWI), and rule of thirds. This study aims to clarify the relationship between these 4 parameters on AP radiographs and the anterior center edge angle (ACEA) on FP radiographs. METHODS In this study, 53 patients who underwent periacetabular osteotomy for hip dysplasia at our center between July 2020 and October 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Four parameters on AP radiographs and the ACEA on FP radiographs before surgery and 6 months after surgery were measured and compared for each hip. RESULTS Upon examining the 53 hips in this study, there was no correlation between either the crossover index and the ACEA (P = 0.66) or the crossover sign before surgery. The postoperative correlation between the crossover index and the ACEA was weak (r = 0.36, P = 0.007), and that between the crossover sign and the ACEA was moderate (r = 0.41, P = 0.003). There was a weak correlation between the AWI and ACEA both before (r = 0.288, P = 0.036) and after (r = 0.349, P = 0.011) the operation. Evaluation of the anterior coverage by the rule of thirds was also not consistent when determining the anterior coverage with the ACEA. CONCLUSION Anterior coverage on AP radiographs is largely inconsistent with ACEA on FP radiographs, especially before the surgery. It is recommended to take FP radiographs routinely for determining anterior hip coverage.

Abstract
PURPOSE (1) To report minimum 5-year patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and return to sport (RTS) rates in high-level athletes with borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) following primary hip arthroscopy for labral pathology and femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and (2) to compare results to a propensity-matched control group of athletes with normal acetabular coverage. METHODS Data were reviewed for surgeries performed between February 2009 and February 2016. Patients were eligible if they underwent primary hip arthroscopy in the setting of BHD (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] 18-25°) and competed in professional, collegiate, or high school sports. Inclusion criteria were preoperative and minimum 5-year follow-up scores for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritis Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), and visual analog scale for pain. Rates of achieving the minimal clinically importance difference (MCID), patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS), and maximum outcome improvement satisfaction threshold (MOIST) were recorded in addition to RTS. BHD athletes were matched by age at the time of surgery, sex, body mass index, Tönnis grade, follow-up time, sport type, and competition level to a control group of 58 athletes with normal acetabular coverage (LCEA 25°-40°) for comparison. RESULTS A total of 34 BHD athletes were included with a mean follow-up of 73.6 ± 10.7 months. BHD athletes showed significant improvements in all PROs, demonstrated high RTS rates (90.0%), and achieved PASS/MCID/MOIST for mHHS (MCID: 80.0%, PASS: 93.3%, MOIST: 80.0%) and HOS-SSS (MCID: 76.7%, PASS: 73.3%) at high rates. When compared to a propensity-matched group with normal acetabular coverage, BHD athletes demonstrated similar postoperative PROs, rates of achieving psychometric thresholds, and RTS rates (P > .05). Additionally, by the latest follow-up, no athlete in either group required conversion to total hip arthroplasty. CONCLUSIONS High-level athletes with BHD undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for labral pathology and femoroacetabular impingement syndrome may expect favorable midterm outcomes and high RTS rates. These results were comparable to a control group of athletes with normal coverage. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective cohort study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Few studies exist regarding sagittal alignment describing femur morphology in navigation-aided surgery. This study investigated the three-dimensional (3D) sagittal femoral alignment of the whole femur. METHODS Seventy-three consecutive patients (59 females, 14 males, mean age: 76.1 years), yielding 140 femurs, were included in this study. A computed-tomography-based patient-specific 3D femur model was used to define a mechanical axis-based reference plane. Proximal and distal femoral axis angles (PFA, DFA) to the reference plane were measured in 3D using custom software. PFA and DFA represent the proximal and distal inclination of the femoral anatomical axis in sagittal plane, respectively. RESULTS PFA (10.6 ± 1.5°) was greater than DFA (2.6 ± 1.6°; P < 0.0001). DFA in females (2.3 ± 1.4°) was smaller than in males (3.9 ± 1.7°; P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION This is the first report of measurement of femoral sagittal alignment related to both 3D anatomy and decision making of femoral flexion angle using navigation surgery for total knee arthroplasty. This report shows a robust DFA measurement that could be used as a template for femoral implants flexion angle when performing both conventional and navigated total knee arthroplasty.

Acetabular coverage analysis of the proximal femoral head accurately characterizes dysplastic acetabular morphology. J Orthop Res 2022; 41:1273-1282. [PMID: 36370137 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Revised: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
This study aimed to (1) measure acetabular sector angle (ASA) from proximal to distal positions along the axial femoral head axis, (2) identify acetabular deficiency patterns, and (3) correlate ASA at different axial positions with other radiological measurements in acetabular dysplasia. We identified 30 hips with dysplasia (lateral center edge angle [LCEA] <20°) and 30 hips without dysplasia (LCEA >25°) from a retrospective cohort. Anterior and posterior ASA (AASA, PASA) were measured in the axial computed tomography plane through the femoral head center (equatorial) and two axial positions above the equatorial line (intermediate and proximal). Deficiency patterns were identified using ASA cut-off values determined from receiver operating characteristic curves. Pearson's coefficients were used for correlations. Compared to non-dysplastic hips, AASA in dysplastic hips was significantly smaller in all levels: equatorial (46.1 ± 7.3 vs. 54.9 ± 8.5,° p < 0.001), intermediate (62.1 ± 11.2 vs. 69.0 ± 10.6,° p = 0.02), and proximal (102.9 ± 14.2 vs. 128.3 ± 23.0,° p < 0.001). According to proximal ASA (Pro-ASA) cut-off values in dysplastic hips, global deficiency was most prevalent (19/30, 63.3%), followed by anterior (6/30, 20%) and posterior (3/30, 10%) deficiency. There were strong correlations between acetabular anteversion and Eq-AASA (r = -0.74, p < 0.001) and LCEA and pro-PASA (r = 0.82, p < 0.001). Clinical significance: Acetabular sector angle provides insight into acetabular morphology and patterns of deficiency, providing essential information for precise acetabular reorientation.

A Short and Mid-Term Follow-Up Analysis with Dual Stratification. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:2427-2440. [PMID: 35183694 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2022.02.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2021] [Revised: 12/02/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To report and compare, according to sex and age, minimum 2-and minimum 5-year patient-reported outcome scores (PROs) and survivorship in a large cohort of patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS Data from February 2008 to September 2018 were reviewed. Patients aged 60 and younger who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with minimum 2-year follow-up were included. Exclusion criteria were Tönnis grade >1, hip dysplasia, previous hip conditions, or any labral treatment different than repair. Minimum 5-year PROs were also collected. All patients included were divided into groups by sex. For further analysis, males and females were stratified according to age: < 21 years old, 21-30 years old, 31-40 years old, 41-50 years old, and 51-60 years old. RESULTS In total, 1,326 hips had minimum 2-year follow-up, including 860 (64.9%) females and 466 males (35.1%), with a mean age of 31.6 years (range, 12.8-60.9 years) and a mean follow-up of 58.7 ± 28.9 months. Of those, 772 had minimum 5-year follow-up, 515 females (66.7%), and 257 males (33.3%) with a mean age of 31.7 years (range, 13.1-60.7 years) and a mean follow-up of 78.5 ± 23.0 months. All patients showed significant improvements in PROs at minimum 2-and 5-year follow-up (P < .001). Between sex analysis revealed comparable PROs at latest follow-up between females and males across any age group. Within sexes, and when sexes were combined, patients <21 years old had significantly better outcomes compared to other age groups. There were more females <21 years old that required revision arthroscopy than males <21 years old (P = .015). Conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) showed no significant difference between sexes (P > .05). Rates of THA were <21 years (.8%), 21-30 years (2.1%), 31-40 years (4%), 41-50 years (8.9%), and 51-60 years (14.3%). CONCLUSIONS Following primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS, all patients reported significant improvements in all PROs at minimum 2-and minimum 5-year follow-up, with females and males achieving similar success. Age affected outcomes, with patients under 21 years old reporting better scores regardless of sex. Although the conversion rate to THA was similar between the sexes, it was lower in the younger ages groups in both sexes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective comparative observation trial.

Increased Combined Anteversion Is an Independent Predictor of Ischiofemoral Impingement in the Setting of Borderline Dysplasia With Coxa Profunda. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:1519-1527. [PMID: 34767951 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2021.10.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2021] [Revised: 10/26/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the differences in radiologic parameters between borderline dysplasia hips (BDDH) +/- coxa profunda and normal hips and to evaluate the correlations between these parameters and the prevalence of ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) in borderline dysplasia. METHODS The imaging of patients with BDDH (18° ≤ lateral center edge angle <25°) treated in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 was retrospective reviewed. These patients were divided into BDDH with coxa profunda (acetabular fossa touches the ilioischial line, pBDDH) and without coxa profunda (nBDDH) groups. The groups were compared with a control group with normal acetabular coverage. Neck-shaft angle, femoral offset, acetabular versions, acetabular coverage, ischial angle, femoral neck version, and combined anteversion were reviewed and analyzed using computed tomography imaging using one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS There were 43 patients (36 female/7 male, 26.13 ± 4.96 years) in the pBDDH group, 22 patients (17 female/5 male, 28.60 ± 5.89 years) in the nBDDH group, and 23 patients (14 female/9 male, 27.67 ± 5.98 years) in the control group. The pBDDH group had increased femoral version, ischial angle, acetabular versions, and decreased ischiofemoral space (IFS)/quadratus femoris space (QFS) than the other 2 groups. The IFS/QFS correlated with neck-shaft angle, femoral offset, femoral neck version, acetabular versions, ischial angle, femoral neck-lesser trochanter angle, posterior acetabular coverage, and combined anteversion in patients with BDDH. Combined anteversion at the 3-o'clock level was an independent predictor of a decreased IFS (beta = -0.348, P = .007) and QFS (beta = -0.255, P = .01, R2 = .550). Binary logistic regression demonstrated that patients with BDDH with large combined anteversion at the 3-o'clock level had a greater prevalence of IFI (odds ratio 1.148; P = .001, R2 = .505). CONCLUSIONS In patients with borderline dysplasia, the QFS/IFS significantly correlated with combined anteversion at the 3-o'clock level on clock face of acetabulum. BDDH with coxa profunda might have a greater prevalence of IFI because of large combined anteversion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective comparative observation study.

Abstract
We hypothesized that the contact area of the articular surface of the wrist joint could be evaluated using a custom-designed analytical program. The aim of the study was to compare the articular contact area of the wrist joint before and after radial shortening osteotomy for Kienböck’s disease. Nine wrists of 9 patients underwent radial shortening osteotomy for Kienböck’s disease. Computed tomography (CT) images of the wrist joint were reconstructed using a 3D reconstruction software package. Radioscaphoid and radiolunate joint contact areas and translation of the joint contact area from preoperative to postoperative were calculated using customized software. The mean Modified Mayo Wrist Score was significantly improved from 50.6 preoperatively to 83.3 at final follow-up (p < .001). Preoperatively, the pain was reported as severe in five wrists and moderate in four wrists, while at final follow-up, five patients were free from pain and four patients had mild pain with vigorous activity. The preoperative radioscaphoid joint contact area was 133.4 ± 49.5 mm2 and the postoperative radioscaphoid joint contact area was 156.4 ± 73.1 mm2. The preoperative radiolunate joint contact area was 194.8 ± 92.1 mm2 and the postoperative radiolunate joint contact area was 148.3 ± 97.9 mm2. The radial translation distance was 0.4 ± 1.2 mm, the dorsal translation distance was 0.6 ± 1.2 mm, and the proximal translation distance was 0.2 ± 0.4 mm. CT-based analysis revealed that the center of the contact area translated radially following radial shortening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reported outcomes of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) with underlying borderline acetabular dysplasia are mixed. This may in part be the result of mixed-sex reporting. PURPOSE To determine the effect of radiographic measures of acetabular dysplasia and hip instability on outcomes of female patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS This was a retrospective study of female patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery for FAI. All patients had preoperative radiographs including a standing anteroposterior pelvic view on which lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), anterior wall index (AWI), posterior wall index (PWI), and femoroepiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index were measured. Patient outcomes were quantified by preoperative and postoperative 12-Item International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12) scores. All patients had follow-up at 2 to 4 years postoperatively. Published values for minimal clinically important difference (MCID), substantial clinical benefit (SCB), Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS), and a normal (iHOT-12 > 86 points) or abnormal (iHOT-12 < 56 points) hip were used to determine outcome, as well as the final iHOT-12 score and iHOT-12 preoperative to postoperative difference. RESULTS The cohort consisted of 249 female patients (83% follow-up) with iHOT-12 scores at 2 to 4 years after surgery (mean, 34.6 months). Female patients with combined LCEA ≤25° and AWI <0.35 had lower final iHOT-12 score and iHOT-12 difference and were less likely to meet MCID, SCB, and PASS and have a normal hip and were more likely to have an abnormal hip as determined by iHOT-12 cutoffs when compared with those patients who had an LCEA >25° and an AWI ≥0.35 (all P < .05). There was no effect of PWI on outcomes. Similarly, female patients with combined LCEA ≤25° and a laterally oriented (positive) FEAR index were less likely to meet MCID, SCB, and PASS and have a normal hip and were more likely to have an abnormal hip compared with those patients who had an LCEA >25° and a negative (medial) FEAR index (all P < .05). In multivariate regression, an LCEA between 18° and 25° was an independent predictor of worse outcomes. CONCLUSION An LCEA of 18° to 25°, in combination with an AWI of <0.35 or a laterally opening FEAR index, was predictive of worse outcomes in female patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI.

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

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the joint contact area of the dominant side and that of the non-dominant side without valgus instability in symptomatic pitchers. Ten symptomatic elbow medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) deficient baseball pitchers participated in this study. Computed tomography (CT) data from the dominant and non-dominant elbows were obtained with and without elbow valgus stress. The CT imaging data of each elbow joint were reconstructed using a 3D reconstruction software package, and the radiocapitellar and ulnohumeral joint contact areas were calculated. The center of the contact area and the translation from the position without stress to the position with valgus stress were also calculated. With elbow valgus stress, the contact area changed, and the center of the radiocapitellar joint contact area translated significantly more laterally in the dominant elbow than in the non-dominant elbow (p = 0.0361). In addition, the center of the ulnohumeral joint contact area translated significantly more posteriorly in the dominant elbow than in the non-dominant elbow (p = 0.0413). These changes in contact areas could be the reason for cartilage injury at the posterior trochlea in pitchers with UCL deficiency.

Abstract
Dysplastic hip morphologies have received increasing attention in the hip preservation community. Defining and characterizing "transitional acetabular coverage" or "borderline" dysplasia has been extraordinarily challenging, and these hips have been lumped together based on focal radiographic measurements such as the lateral center edge and Tonnis angles. Some of these hips are treated with arthroscopy and some with corrective osteotomies without definitive patient-related outcome measure winners in our literature. Three-dimensional imaging evaluation of these hips with regard to acetabular and femoral-sided anatomy will be required to more clearly define any consistent anatomic variants and their respective optimal surgical approaches.
