Fully hydroxyapatite-coated collared femoral stems in direct anterior versus direct lateral hip arthroplastyFully hydroxyapatite-coated collared femoral stems in direct anterior versus direct lateral hip arthroplasty.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) via the direct anterior approach has increased in popularity in the last decade, with research supporting enhanced early recovery; however, some investigators have reported increased early revision rates in direct anterior THA. We examined outcomes from a single institution's experience with a fully hydroxyapatite-coated collared femoral stem implanted via the anterior or the lateral approach.

Methods: Patients who had received fully hydroxyapatite-coated collared femoral stems as part of THA surgery performed by 1 of 3 surgeons between January 2012 and September 2017 were identified from our institutional database.

Athletic groin pain: a systematic review of surgical diagnoses, investigations and treatment.

Introduction: Athletic groin pain requiring surgery remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. This systematic review aims to identify the most common causes of groin pain in athletes requiring surgery. Additionally, it aims to further characterise their susceptible athlete profiles, common physical examination and imaging techniques, and surgical procedures performed.

Knee Arthroscopy in the Setting of Knee Arthroplasty.

Knee arthroplasty is an effective and reproducible way of treating advanced knee arthritis; however, results are not always favorable. Knee arthroscopy has been described in symptomatic knee arthroplasty, but opinion is divided over its utility. The purpose of this systematic review is to examine existing evidence supporting knee arthroscopy in the setting of knee arthroplasty.

Safety and efficacy of arthroscopy in the setting of shoulder arthroplasty.

Shoulder arthroplasty has become a reliable and reproducible method of treating a range of shoulder pathologies including fractures, osteoarthritis, and rotator cuff arthropathy. Although most patients experience favorable outcomes from shoulder arthroplasty, some patients suffer from persistent symptoms post-arthroplasty and it is these patients who present a unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The role of arthroscopy in assessing and treating patients with symptomatic prosthetic joints elsewhere in the body has been established in recent literature.

Indications and outcomes of shoulder arthroscopy after shoulder arthroplasty.

Background: Arthroscopy is a widely used intervention in the treatment of a variety of shoulder conditions. Arthroscopy has also been selectively used in symptomatic patients after shoulder arthroplasty. The purpose of this systematic review was to determine indications for shoulder arthroscopy in patients after shoulder arthroplasty and to report patient outcomes after these procedures.
