Purposes: Identify patients returning to sports.

Do frailty scores predict outcome after proximal femoral replacement for musculoskeletal tumours: a case series?

Purpose: Frailty has a negative independent relationship with morbidity and mortality. A frail individual has low resilience and adaptive capacity to stressors with unfavourable consequences. The relationship between musculoskeletal tumour patients undergoing surgery and frailty is underrepresented in literature.

Mechanical Symptoms of Osteoarthritis in the Knee and Arthroscopy.

The potential benefit of arthroscopy as a treatment for knee osteoarthritis is contentious, with National Institute for Health and Care Excellence stating that, "There is uncertainty regarding the efficacy of the procedure." This is a study of a consecutive series of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee, suffering from mechanical symptoms, such as giving way, catching, and locking, and undergoing arthroscopic debridement, including chondroplasty and meniscectomy where appropriate. A total of 33 patients were reviewed at a mean period of 24 months (standard deviation 3 months) and follow-up data were obtained for 28 of these patients.
