High Rate of Concomitant Lumbo-Sacral Spine Pathology in the Setting of Hip Abductor Tendon Repair. J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00579-5. [PMID: 38871064 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.06.003] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip abductor deficiency is a common cause of lateral hip pain in middle-aged patients. Identifying upstream muscle denervation originating in the lumbo-sacral spine could potentially impact the management of patients who have abductor deficiency. The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of lumbo-sacral pathology (L4 to S1) in patients undergoing hip abductor tendon repair. METHODS All cases of primary hip abductor repair performed at a tertiary care center between January 2010 and December 2021 were reviewed. Patients were classified into the following groups: A) confirmed L4 to S1 disease based on preoperative or perioperative L4 to S1 interventions (ie, surgery, epidural injections, and/or positive electromyography findings); B) radiographic evidence on lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging demonstrating nerve compression at L4 to S1; and C) no evidence of L4 to S1 disease. RESULTS There were 131 cases of primary hip abductor repair that were included. Over 80% of patients were women, who had a mean age of 64 years (range, 20 to 85). There were thirteen patients (9.9%) who underwent concomitant total hip arthroplasty (THA). Of the included patients, 29% (n = 38) were categorized into group A, 12% (n = 16) into group B, and 59% (n = 77) into group C. Patients who had L4 to S1 pathology were older than patients who did not have L4 to S1 pathology (67 versus 61 years, P = .004). Of the patients undergoing concomitant THA and hip abductor repair, 54% demonstrated evidence of lumbo-sacral spine pathology. CONCLUSIONS Over 40% of patients undergoing isolated hip abductor tendon repair and >50% of patients undergoing concomitant hip abductor tendon repair and THA demonstrated evidence of L4 to S1 disease perioperatively. Patients demonstrating symptomatic hip abductor deficiency should be screened for concomitant lower lumbo-sacral spine pathology.

Ultrasound-Guided Subfascial Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections Versus Enthesis Needling for Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome: A Randomized Controlled Trial. Orthop J Sports Med 2024; 12:23259671241249123. [PMID: 38751852 PMCID: PMC11095191 DOI: 10.1177/23259671241249123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is characterized by gluteal enthesopathy involving the peritrochanteric space and associated with chronic pain and functional impairment. A corticosteroid injection in the trochanteric bursa is the usual palliative treatment for pain. However, it is important to investigate treatment options that will relieve pain in the peritrochanteric space. Purpose To compare the clinical efficacy of subfascial platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection and enthesis needling for GTPS. Study Design Randomized controlled trial; Level of evidence, 1. Methods A total of 92 patients (90% women; mean age, 55 years old; mean body mass index, 25.3 kg/m2) were randomly divided into a subfascial PRP injection group and an enthesis needling group. Descriptive data and radiographic measurements of the pelvis-including leg-length difference, pelvic width difference, and pelvic trochanteric index-were recorded. The primary outcome measures were the Hip Outcome Score (HOS) activities of daily living (HOS-ADL) and sports-specific (HOS-SS) subscales and the visual analog scale for pain at 3, 6, and 12 months posttreatment. In addition, we evaluated the presence or absence of ultrasound characteristics (fascia nodules, trochanteric bursa distension, and calcium deposits) over time in response to treatment. Results Baseline demographic and radiological characteristics were similar between the groups. The PRP group saw significantly greater improvement from baseline to 12 months posttreatment on the HOS-SS subscore compared with the needling group (32.09 [95% CI, 28.99-40.20] vs 20.52 [95% CI, 11.99-29.05]; P = .048). At 3 months, 60% of patients in the PRP group versus 33.3% in the needling group had a reduction in pain compared with a baseline of >20% (P = .040). After subfascial PRP injection, fewer patients had a fascia nodule over the trochanter and/or bursa distension (P = .006 and P = .004, respectively). The pelvic trochanteric index was predictive of HOS-ADL and HOS-SS outcomes (P = .011 and P = .022, respectively). The interaction between treatment modality and fascia nodule influenced HOS-ADL and HOS-SS outcomes (P = .021 and P = .023) as well as the interactions of treatment modality, fascia nodules, and calcifications (P = .027). Conclusion Both subfascial PRP injection and enthesis needling resulted in clinical improvements, but the improvement in the HOS-SS was greater in the PRP group. Registration NCT04231357 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier).

Arthroscopy 2023:S0749-8063(23)00915-5. [PMID: 37967732 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.10.049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate 10-year patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores following endoscopic surgery for gluteus medius partial and full-thickness tears with concomitant hip arthroscopy for labral tears and/or femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS Prospectively collected data on patients followed for a minimum of 10 years after endoscopic gluteus medius repair with concomitant hip arthroscopy performed by a single surgeon were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with preoperative and 10-year follow-up for the following PROs were included: modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score for pain. RESULTS There were 13 patients eligible for inclusion, 11 (84.6%) of whom had 10-year follow up, with a mean of 127.6 months (range: 120.0-140.2 months). The group consisted of 10 females (90.9%) and one male (9.1%) with a mean age at surgery of 60.1 years (range: 46.2-74.8 years). PRO scores improved from preoperative to 10-year follow-up as follows: mHHS from 60.4 to 88.0 (P = .011); NAHS from 50.1 to 90.6 (P < .001); HOS-SS from 37.5 to 85.1 (P = .001); and VAS from 4.8 to 1.2 (P = .006). Mean patient satisfaction rating was 8.3. Patients achieved PASS and MCID for mHHS and HOS-SSS at a rate of 81.8%. There was no significant decline in PROs or satisfaction between 2, 5, and 10 years postoperatively. All patients underwent concomitant hip arthroscopy and labral treatment (debridement or repair). One patient, who had arthroscopic findings of acetabular and femoral outerbridge grade 4 lesions, subsequently underwent total hip arthroplasty; however, the GM was assessed during the THA, and it was verified that the repair was intact. There were no clinical failures, secondary operations, or complications. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic repair of gluteus medius tears is a safe procedure with favorable and durable long-term outcomes at minimum 10-year follow-up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2022; 30:2174-2180. [PMID: 34766190 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06792-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare outcomes after arthroscopy in FAIS patients with preoperative asymptomatic gluteal tendinosis (GT) to a control group with no gluteal tendinosis. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed using data from FAIS patients who had arthroscopy between 2016 and 2018. Asymptomatic GT was diagnosed using hip MRI without clinical symptoms. Patients with asymptomatic GT were 1:1 propensity-score matched to patients without GT. Patient-reported outcomes (HOS-ADL, iHOT-12, mHHS), VAS scores, radiographic measures, performed procedures, complications, and revision surgery were compared and analyzed for both groups. RESULTS A total of 105 asymptomatic GT hips and 105 hips without GT were found using propensity-score matching. When compared to preoperative levels, both groups demonstrated significant improvements in PROs and VAS scores at the final follow-up. Besides, there were no significant differences in preoperative scores, final outcome scores, or score improvements between the groups. Patients in the GT group were significantly less likely to achieve the MCID for the VAS score (72.4% vs 83.8%, p = 0.045). However, there were no other differences in the rate of meeting the PASS and MCID between the study and the control groups. CONCLUSION It was demonstrated in this study that FAIS patients with asymptomatic gluteal tendinosis can expect to experience similar good short-term patients-reported outcomes as compared with patients without gluteal tendinosis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.
