Demographic Disparities and Outcomes Following Hip Arthroscopy: Exploring the Impact of Social Determinants of Health in Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of social deprivation on preoperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes following hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS).

Methods: Patients undergoing primary HA for FAIS were identified, and their social deprivation index (SDI) score was assigned on the basis of the provided ZIP code. Quartiles (Q1 to Q4) were established using national percentiles, with Q4 representing patients from the areas of greatest deprivation.

The Genitofemoral Nerve Is the Structure Closest to the Tendon Footprint and Is Most at Risk for Iatrogenic Injury During Proximal Adductor Longus Repair: A Cadaveric Anatomy Study.

Purpose: To identify structures at risk during proximal adductor longus repair and to report observed distances between these structures and the adductor longus (AL) footprint.

Methods: Eight hemipelves from fresh cadaver whole-body specimens were dissected using a previously established surgical approach. The tendinous attachment of the AL was scored into the underlying bone and the footprint size was measured in millimeters.

Primary Hip Arthroscopy Is Associated With Earlier Achievement of Substantial Clinical Benefit Compared With Revision Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

Purpose: To compare time to achievement of clinically significant outcomes (CSOs) between patients undergoing primary and revision hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.

Methods: Patients undergoing primary and revision HA for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome with complete 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL) and Sport Subscale (HOS-SSS) were identified. Revision patients were propensity matched 1:4 to primary patients with HA, controlling for age, sex, and body mass index (BMI).

Treatment of Hip Cartilage Defects in Athletes.

Chondral defects in the athlete's hip are a relatively common occurrence, often presenting with debilitating pain and activity limitation. Preoperative identification of cartilage defects is challenging and there are many different modalities for treatment. Nonsurgical interventions, including activity modification, physical therapy, and injections, play a vital role, especially in less severe cases and as adjuncts to surgical intervention.

Association of Patient Satisfaction 2 Years After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome With Minimum 10-Year Patient-Reported Outcomes and Survivorship.

Background: Previous studies have shown that short-term outcomes after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) predict midterm outcomes, but a limited number of studies have evaluated whether short-term outcomes predict long-term outcomes and survivorship.

Purpose: To evaluate whether achieving clinically significant outcomes at 2 years after hip arthroscopy for FAIS can predict patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and survivorship at 10 years.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

Staged Hip Arthroscopy With Labral Repair, Femoroplasty, and Capsular Plication Followed by Periacetabular Osteotomy for Hip Dysplasia Results in Improved Outcomes and 100% Survivorship at Minimum 2-Year Follow-Up.

Purpose: To assess patient-reported outcomes (PROs), clinically significant outcomes (CSOs), and survivorship after staged hip arthroscopy with labral repair, femoroplasty, and capsular plication followed by periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for the management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and hip dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle ≤25°).

Methods: A prospectively maintained database was queried to retrospectively identify patients who underwent staged primary hip arthroscopy and PAO between January 2018 and October 2021 and had a minimum 2-year follow-up. PROs collected included Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living/Sports Subscale, international Hip Outcome Tool-12 item questionnaire, and visual analog scale for pain.

Outcomes of Flexibility Sport Athletes With Borderline Hip Dysplasia After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: A Propensity-Matched Analysis at Minimum 2-Year Follow-up.

Background: Hip arthroscopy has proved successful in treating femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) in patients with and without borderline hip dysplasia (BHD). Despite a high prevalence of BHD in patients who participate in sports with high flexibility requirements, a paucity of literature evaluates the efficacy of hip arthroscopy in treating FAIS in flexibility sport athletes with BHD.

Purpose: To compare minimum 2-year patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and achievement of clinically significant outcomes in flexibility sport athletes with BHD undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS with capsular plication with results in flexibility sport athletes without dysplasia.

Hip Gluteus Repair Yields Satisfactory Clinically Significant Outcome Achievement By 1 Year in a Majority of Patients: Those With Partial-Thickness Tears and Preoperative Hip Abduction Weakness Show Delayed Recovery.

Purpose: To define the time to achievement of clinically significant outcomes (CSOs) after primary gluteus medius and/or minimus (GM) repair and to identify factors associated with delayed CSO achievement.

Methods: Patients who underwent primary GM repair between January 2012 and June 2021 with complete preoperative, 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL) were retrospectively identified. Cohort-specific minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) were calculated.

The Promising 2-Year Performance of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System in Primary Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

Background: Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) thresholds have been previously defined for the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) at 1-year follow-up in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome; however, the MCID and PASS thresholds are yet to be defined for the PROMIS at 2-year follow-up.

Purpose: (1) To establish MCID and PASS thresholds for the PROMIS Pain Interference (PROMIS-PI) and PROMIS Physical Function (PROMIS-PF) at 2-year follow-up and (2) to correlate PROMIS scores with hip-specific patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) scores.

Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3.
