Abstract
OBJECTIVE Matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) and microfracture (MF) are well-established treatments for cartilage defects of the knee. However, high-level evidence comparing microfracture and spheroid technology ACI is limited. DESIGN Prospective, phase III clinical trial with patients randomized to ACI (N = 52) or MF (N = 50). Level of evidence: 1, randomized controlled trial. Both procedures followed standard protocols. For ACI 10 to 70 spheroids/cm2 were administered. Primary outcome measure was the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS). This report presents results for 36 months after treatment. RESULTS Both ACI and MF showed significant improvement over the entire 3-year observation period. For the overall KOOS, noninferiority of ACI (the intended primary goal of the study) was formally confirmed; additionally, for the subscores "Activities of Daily Living" and "Sport and Recreation," superiority of ACI over MF was shown at descriptive level. Occurrence of adverse events were not different between both treatments (ACI 77%; MF 74%). Four patients in the MF group required reoperation which was defined as treatment failure. No treatment failure was reported for the ACI group. CONCLUSIONS Patients treated with matrix-associated ACI with spheroid technology showed substantial improvement in various clinical outcomes after 36 months. The advantages of ACI compared with microfracture was underlined by demonstrating noninferiority, in overall KOOS and superiority in the KOOS subscores "Activities of Daily Living" and "Sport and Recreation." In the present study, subgroups comparing different age groups and defect sizes showed comparable clinical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW A wide array of joint-preserving surgical techniques exists in the management of acetabular chondral defects (ACDs). The purpose of this review is to summarize the clinical outcomes of the recent biologics used to treat ACDs during hip arthroscopy. RECENT FINDINGS Increasing evidence is available for different biological solutions used in the hip. Studies have shown promising outcomes with minimal complications when using biologics as augmentation to microfracture (MF), including different scaffolds or stem cells, or to enhance autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI). However, data so far is scarce, and more trials and longer follow-ups are needed to better delineate the appropriate indications and benefits for each technique. Presently, the level of evidence is low, but in general, biologics appear safe and trend toward beneficial compared to standard surgical techniques. Augmented MF is recommended for small to medium ACDs, and matrix-assisted ACI or three-dimensional ACI is recommended for medium to large defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is one of the most frequent reasons for cartilage damage in the hip. Autologous chondrocyte transplantation has proven high success rates in the treatment of focal chondral defects; however, harvesting of chondrocytes in the hip has been reported but not specifically from the region of femoral cam lesions. Therefore, the goal of this study was to analyze the growth and redifferentiation potential of cartilage samples harvested from the cam deformities in patients with FAI. DESIGN Cartilage samples were gained from 15 patients with cam-type FAI undergoing arthroscopic femoral cam resection. Healthy (hyaline cartilage of the hip and knee joint, n = 12) and arthritic control groups (degenerative changes in cartilage of the hip joint, n = 8) were also analyzed. Chondrocytes were initially cultured under monolayer, and subsequently under pellet conditions. A comparative representation of the groups was performed by Mankin score classification, immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Col1, Col2, aggrecan), and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) (Col1, Col2, Col10, Sox9, RunX2). RESULTS Mankin score of FAI-samples (4.1±3.1, Range 0-10) showed a wide variation but was significant lower (P = 0.0244) when compared with the arthritic control (7.5 ± 2.7, range 4-12). IHC showed an increased deposition of Col2 (P = 0.0002) and aggrecan (P = 0.0261) after pellet culture compared with deposition after monolayer culture in all groups. In qRT-PCR, FAI samples showed after pellet culture increased Col2 (P = 0.0050) and Col10 expression (P = 0.0006) and also Mankin score correlated increasing gene-expression of Col10 (r = 0.8108, P = 0.0341) and RunX2 (r = 0.8829, P = 0.123). CONCLUSIONS Cartilage samples of patients with cam-type FAI showed sufficient but heterogeneous composition relating to histological quality and chondrogenic potential. However, harvesting of chondrocytes from the cam lesion might be a valid option especially if a cartilage lesion is noted in a diagnostic arthroscopy and individual preexisting stage of cartilage degeneration and appropriate pellet-culturing conditions are considered.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical outcome of autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC) implementation for mid-sized chondral lesions of the acetabulum in young active patients, and assess their potential to resume an active lifestyle including return to recreational athletic activities. METHODS Sixty-two patients with full-thickness mid-sized acetabular chondral lesions were studied. All patients who underwent an arthroscopic AMIC procedure for reconstruction of chondral defects were assessed pre-operatively and at least 2 years post-operatively using the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain. RESULTS A significant improvement in all three scores at the time of follow-up was found. The mean HOOS improved from 58.8 ± 7.4 pre-operatively to 90.6 ± 7.1 at follow-up (p < 0.001) while the mean mHHS improved from 53.4 ± 6.6 to 82.4 ± 8.2 (p < 0.001). There was a significant decrease from 4.9 ± 1.1 pre-operatively to 1.1 ± 0.8 post-operatively (p < 0.001) in the VAS pain evaluation, indicating that the patients were satisfied with their relief of pain. CONCLUSIONS The AMIC procedure is an effective single-stage technique for the reconstruction of mid-size chondral defects of acetabulum in amateur athletes. This intervention enhanced the potential for patients to resume recreational athletic activities and the 2-year clinical outcome as evaluated by the HOOS, mHHS and VAS showed significant improvement over the pre-operative evaluations.

Abstract
Bone marrow edema (BME) is a descriptive term for a common finding in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Although pain is the major symptom, BME differs in terms of its causal mechanisms, underlying disease, as well as treatment and prognosis. This complexity together with the lack of evidence-based guidelines, frequently makes the identification of underlying conditions and its management a major challenge. Unnecessary multiple consultations and delays in diagnosis as well as therapy indicate a need for interdisciplinary clinical recommendations. Therefore, an interdisciplinary task force was set up within our large osteology center consisting of specialists from internal medicine, endocrinology/diabetology, hematology/oncology, orthopedics, pediatrics, physical medicine, radiology, rheumatology, and trauma surgery to develop a consenus paper. After review of literature, review of practical experiences (expert opinion), and determination of consensus findings, an overview and an algorithm were developed with concise summaries of relevant aspects of the respective underlying disease including diagnostic measures, clinical features, differential diagnosis and treatment of BME. Together, our single-center consensus review on the management of BME may help improve the quality of care for these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies on the effect of partial- and full-thickness chondral damage of the hip on outcomes and the ability to achieve meaningful clinical outcomes are limited. PURPOSE To determine the effect of full- and partial-thickness chondral injuries on 2-year outcomes in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) compared with patients without chondral damage, and to identify significant predictors of achieving the patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) and minimal clinically important difference (MCID). STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data from consecutive patients with evidence of chondromalacia at the time of primary hip arthroscopic surgery with routine capsular closure for the treatment of FAIS by a single fellowship-trained surgeon between January 2012 and September 2016 were reviewed. Patients were divided into groups with partial-thickness (grade I-III) or full-thickness (grade IV) chondral defects and matched by age and body mass index (BMI) to patients without chondral injuries. Preoperative and postoperative outcomes were compared among the 3 groups, and a binary logistic regression analysis was utilized to identify significant predictors of achieving the MCID and PASS. RESULTS There were 634 patients included in the analysis, with a mean age of 34.5 ± 10.9 years and a mean BMI of 25.2 ± 4.7 kg/m2. A total of 493 (77.8%) patients had no evidence of chondral damage, 92 (14.5%) patients had partial-thickness chondral defects, and 49 (7.7%) patients had full-thickness chondral defects. There were statistically significant differences in the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living, HOS-Sports Subscale, modified Harris Hip Score, pain, and satisfaction (P < .01) among the 3 groups. Patients with grade IV chondromalacia experienced the poorest outcomes and lowest percentage of achieving the PASS. Predictors for achieving any PASS threshold included preoperative alpha angle (odds ratio [OR], 0.96; P = .016), absence of preoperative limping (OR, 7.25; P = .002), absence of preoperative chronic pain (OR, 5.83; P = .019), primary hip arthroscopic surgery (OR, 0.17; P = .050), patients who self-identified as runners (OR, 2.27; P = .037), and Tönnis grade 0 (OR, 2.86; P = .032). Male sex (OR, 2.49; P = .015) was the only predictor of achieving any MCID threshold. CONCLUSION Patients with grade IV chondral defects experienced worse functional outcomes, lower satisfaction, and increased pain when compared with both patients without chondral damage or grade I-III chondromalacia at 2-year follow-up. Several predictors were associated with achieving clinically significant function in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery for FAIS.

Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is a common surgical technique, yet it has severe complications, such as loosening and repeated revision. Thus, hip-preserving surgical options should be considered first to treat cartilage defects in the femoral head, especially for younger patients. Current surgical options for chondral repair of the femoral head include microfracture, trapdoor procedure, transplantation of osteochondral allografts and autografts, and autologous chondrocyte implantation. Each of these techniques has unique advantages and limitations; however, none of them have been consented as the best practice for cartilage defects. In this review article, we also introduced a novel technique for repairing osteochondral defects of the femoral head using autologous costal cartilage grafts that may have good translational potential for cost-effective and safe applications. The translational potential of this article This review updates current surgical options for reparing articular cartilage defects in the femoral head. We also introduce a novel technique for repairing osteochondral defects of the femoral head using autologous costal cartilage grafts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversy remains over the surgical management of large osteochondral lesions of the femoral head in young, active patients. The purpose of this study is to assess midterm clinical and radiographic outcomes after fresh osteochondral allograft transplantation (OAT) for large femoral head lesions at minimum 2-year follow-up. METHODS A retrospective review of prospectively collected data was performed for 22 patients under the age of 50 years with defined femoral head osteochondral lesions who underwent fresh OAT between 2008 and 2015. Patients were assessed clinically using the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) preoperatively and at each follow-up visit. Postoperative radiographs were evaluated for graft integrity and Kellgren & Lawrence Grade for osteoarthritis severity. Complications and reoperation were assessed by chart review. Kaplan-Meier survivorship analyses with 95% confidence intervals were performed for the end point of conversion to total hip arthroplasty. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 68.8 months (26-113), the mean mHHS improved significantly (P < .001) from 48.9 (19-84) to 77.4 (35-98). Sixteen of 22 patients (72.7%) had an mHHS ≥70 at the latest follow-up. Arthritic progression, as indicated by an increase in the Kellgren & Lawrence Grade, occurred in 4 of 22 hips (18.2%). Five patients (22.7%) underwent conversion to total hip arthroplasty. Graft survivorship was 86.4 ± 7.3% at 2 years, 78.5 ± 10.0% at 5 years, and 67.3 ± 13.5% at 9 years. CONCLUSION Fresh OAT may be a viable treatment option for osteochondral defects of the femoral head in young, active patients with minimal preexisting joint deformity.

Abstract
The long-term efficacy of the treatment of chondral lesions is very important to prevent hip osteoarthritis. Microfracture, autologous chondrocyte transplantation, and direct chondral repair, among others, are techniques that have shown good results in some cases. We propose a technique to treat wave lesions through reverse microfracture, with bubble decompression and adherence of the natural scar from the detached cartilage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE Management of injuries to the articular cartilage is complex and challenging. Our purpose was to assess outcomes of a cohort of patients who underwent hip arthroscopy with full-thickness chondral damage treated with microfracture and compare these outcomes with those from a similar cohort of patients who did not. MATERIAL AND METHODS We prospectively gathered the data of 31 hips treated with microfracture from January 2009 to January 2016. In the cohort of hips without chondral damage there were 49 hips. All patients were assessed pre- and postoperatively with 4 patient-reported outcome instruments. RESULTS The mean follow-up was 36.2 months in the cohort of patients with full-thickness chondral damage, and 36.6 months in the cohort of patients without chondral damage. Both groups demonstrated significant improvement in all patient-reported outcome instruments between preoperative and final follow-up. There was no statistically significant difference between both cohorts at final follow-up. DISCUSSION This study showed that patients undergoing microfracture during hip arthroscopy had significant improvement in all patient-reported outcome instruments during follow-up. The greatest improvement was noted at 6 months postoperatively. Both groups showed no significant difference in final patient-reported outcome instruments scores.
