Satisfaction, functional outcomes and predictors in hip arthroscopy: a cohort study.

Introduction: Hip arthroscopy is not always successful, leading to high rates of total hip arthroplasty (THA) after arthroscopy. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for THA, revision arthroscopy and low patient satisfaction and to compare outcomes of the different procedures of primary hip arthroscopy.

Methods: A total of 91 primary hip arthroscopy procedures in 90 patients (66% female) were analysed.

Plaster, splint, brace, tape or functional mobilization after first-time patellar dislocation: what's the evidence?

With an incidence of 5.8 per 100,000 per year, patellar dislocations are commonly seen in the emergency department. Surprisingly, there are only a few studies available that focus on the results of the different non-surgical treatment options after first-time patellar dislocation.

Synovial chondromatosis of the hip, a case report and literature review.

A case of giant synovial chondromatosis of the hip with extra-articular localisation in the ileopectineal bursa is presented and the literature concerning this condition is reviewed. Synovial chondromatosis is a rare condition of unknown aetiology. A literature search was performed to identify studies describing outcome after surgical treatment of synovial chondromatosis of the hip.
