Patient Perception of Allograft Versus Autograft in ACL Reconstruction Using a Validated Online Survey Marketplace.

Background: Little is known regarding the opinions of the general population on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft options.

Purpose: To evaluate the general population's perception of the use of allografts versus autografts in ACL reconstruction using a previously validated online marketplace platform.

Methods: A prospective 34-question survey was distributed via the online marketplace.

Pediatric Patients with Osteomyelitis and/or Septic Joint Undergoing Surgical Debridement Have Equivalent Short-Term Outcomes with or without Preoperative MRI.

The purpose of this study was to determine if short-term outcomes differed for pediatric patients with suspected musculoskeletal infection with or without a preoperative MRI. This was a multicenter, retrospective review of patients aged 0-16 years who presented with atraumatic extremity pain, underwent irrigation and debridement (I&D), and received at least one preoperative or postoperative MRI over a 10-year period. Primary outcomes were time to OR, total I&Ds, readmission rate, time from OR to discharge, and total number of MRIs.

Pseudoaneurysm following Two-Stage Hip Revision with Fasciotomy.

In the setting of total hip arthroplasty (THA), pseudoaneurysms are extremely rare and can be difficult to diagnose, as clinical symptoms can mimic symptoms of other more common complications, such as periprosthetic joint infection, hematoma, and nerve damage. We present a case of a 69-year-old male with a history of slipped capital femoral epiphysis 56 years prior and subsequent right THA. The right hip primary arthroplasty was subsequently complicated by multiple dislocations and recurrent prosthetic joint infections.
