Femoroacetabular Impingement Measurements Obtained From Two-Dimensional Radiographs Versus Three-Dimensional-Reconstructed Computed Tomography Images Result in Different Values.

Purpose: To compare the reliability and accuracy of radiographic measurements obtained from 2-dimensional (2D) radiographs and 3-dimensional (3D)-reconstructed computed tomography (CT) images in the assessment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS).

Methods: Consecutive patients with FAIS from January 2018 to December 2020 were identified and included in this study. Two fellowship-trained surgeons and 2 fellows performed blinded radiographic measurements.

Small-Bore Needle Arthroscopic Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis Release Results in Improved Outcomes at One Year Postoperatively.

Purpose: To evaluate outcomes of patients who underwent small-bore needle arthroscopic extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) release for the management of recalcitrant lateral epicondylitis.

Methods: Patients who underwent elbow evaluation and ECRB release using a small-bore needle arthroscopy system were included in this study Thirteen patients were included. Quick Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand and Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation scores, as well as overall satisfaction scores, were collected.

Arthroscopic Repair of a PASTA of the Shoulder Using a Bursal Split.

PASTA (partial articular supraspinatus tendon avulsion) lesions are a subset of partial rotator cuff tears that are commonly treated by surgeons. Multiple surgical techniques exist for managing these lesions, including debridement, transtendinous repair, and completion of the tear and repair. Each of these techniques provides its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and currently there is no consensus on which method provides the best clinical outcomes or ease of procedure.
