Hip Chondral Defects: Arthroscopic Treatment With the Needle and Curette Technique and ChondroFiller.

Management of symptomatic focal cartilage defects of the hip can be challenging. Cells, scaffold therapies, and injectable agents have emerged as an adjunctive modality to improve clinical outcomes. Long and malleable needles that can be bent are used to release these kinds of biological products.

Periarticular regional analgesia in total knee arthroplasty: a review of the neuroanatomy and injection technique.

Postoperative pain control after total knee arthroplasty may be insufficient, resulting in insomnia, antalgic ambulation, and difficulty with rehabilitation. Current strategies, including the use of femoral nerve catheters, may control pain but have been associated with falls, motor blockade, and quadriceps inhibition. Periarticular infiltration using the appropriate technique and knowledge of intraarticular knee anatomy may increase pain control and maximize rehabilitation.
