Basic Hip Arthroscopy Part 2: Central Compartment Arthroscopy (Interportal Capsulotomy, Acetabuloplasty, and Labral Repair).

Over the past decade, hip-preservation strategies have gained momentum, resulting in a notable increase in the use of hip arthroscopy for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in hip-related pathology. In this 3-part series, the authors will aim to comprehensively review the fundamentals of hip arthroscopy in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement. This Technical Note will thoroughly review the senior authors' approach to managing the central compartment of the hip in the context of femoroacetabular impingement.

Basic Hip Arthroscopy Part 1: Patient Positioning and Portal Placement.

Over the past decade, hip-preservation strategies have gained momentum, resulting in a notable increase in the use of hip arthroscopy for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in hip-related pathology. In this 3-part series, the authors will aim to comprehensively review the fundamentals of hip arthroscopy in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement. While considering the advantages and disadvantages of post versus postless hip arthroscopy, this Technical Note will review the preferred patient and portal positioning approach used by the senior authors.

Basic Hip Arthroscopy Part 3: Peripheral-Compartment Arthroscopy (T-Capsulotomy, Femoroplasty, and Capsular Closure).

Over the past decade, hip preservation strategies have gained momentum, resulting in a notable increase in the use of hip arthroscopy for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for hip-related pathology. In this 3-part series, we aim to comprehensively review the fundamentals of hip arthroscopy in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement. This Technical Note will thoroughly review the senior authors' approach to managing the peripheral compartment of the hip in the context of femoroacetabular impingement.

Diagnosis and Treatment Strategies of Meniscus Root Tears: A Scoping Review.

Background: Meniscus root tears comprise 10% to 21% of all meniscal tears. These tears alter knee biomechanics, elevating contact pressure, akin to a meniscectomy. Consequently, they are linked to advanced joint degeneration and cartilage damage in the affected compartment.

Partial Meniscectomy Yields Comparable Outcomes and Failure Rates to Meniscal Repair for Horizontal Cleavage Tears, With Fewer Complication Rates but Greater Progression of Degenerative Changes.

Purpose: To compare the clinical outcomes, failure rates, surgical complications, and postoperative radiographic changes following partial meniscectomy versus meniscal repair for horizontal cleavage tears (HCTs).

Methods: A literature search was performed according to the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines using the Scopus, PubMed, and Embase computerized databases. Clinical studies evaluating partial meniscectomy or meniscal repair for HCTs were included.

Lower Range of Recurrent Instability Rates Following Bankart Repair and Remplissage Compared to Isolated Bankart Repair in Patients With "Nonengaging/On-Track" Hill-Sachs Lesions and <20% Glenoid Bone Loss.

Purpose: To compare recurrent instability and return-to-sport rates along with external rotation differences between on-track (nonengaging) Hill-Sachs lesion patients undergoing either an isolated Bankart repair (IBR) or a Bankart repair augmented with a remplissage procedure (B+R).

Methods: A search was conducted using 3 databases (PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL) in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Only clinical comparative (level of evidence I-III) studies were considered for inclusion.

Overweight and obese humans overeat away from home.

The built environment has been implicated in the development of the epidemic of obesity. We investigated the differences in the meal patterns of normal weight vs. overweight/obese individuals occurring at home vs.
