We performed total hip arthroplasty using an anatomic medullary locking cementless stem for small-physique patients from 1988 to 1995. We conducted a retrospective study of 50 joints in 44 cases, including 40 developmentally dysplastic hips followed for 12 to 20 years (average, 15.1 years). Average height and body weight were 152 cm and 56 kg (5.0 ft and 124 lb), respectively, with an average body mass index of 24.2. Twelve joints (24%) were revised for acetabular-sided failures. Forty-eight stems (96%) showed bone ingrowth fixation, and there were no unstable stems. The simple cylindrical shape of the distal portion of the AML stem was less affected by deformity of the proximal femur of developmental dysplasia of the hip in patients with a small physique, and both clinically and radiologically good results were confirmed at long-term follow-up.

Background: Many studies have examined the prevalence of acetabular version (AV) and femoral version (FV) abnormalities and their effect on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), but few have explored the prevalence and influence of combined version (CV) abnormalities.

Purpose: To (1) describe the distribution of AV, FV, and CV in the largest cohort to date and (2) determine the relationship between AV, FV, and CV and PROs after hip arthroscopy for FAIS.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

Purpose: To identify the PASS and SCB thresholds for hip arthroscopy and provide guidance on how to choose among the thresholds.

Methods: A systematic review of literature was conducted in PubMed and MEDLINE databases in August 2024 using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Studies with Level I to IV evidence that defined SCB or PASS thresholds for PROs for hip arthroscopy in the setting of intra-articular pathology were included.

Purpose: To identify sex-based differences in pathology, outcomes, and complications after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and to compare patient-reported outcomes (PRO) scores between males and females.

Methods: The PubMed and MEDLINE databases were searched in September 2024, according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Included studies had data stratified by sex, minimum 2-year patient reported outcome (PRO) scores for hip arthroscopy in the setting of FAI and labral pathology, and a 2014 or later publication date.

Background: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a postoperative complication of the central nervous system, especially in elderly patients. Growing evidence shows a close relationship between the kidney and cognition. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the subsequent risk of POCD and indicators related to the kidney.

Efficacy of small-diameter core decompression with platelet-rich plasma in early osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a retrospective study.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord

January 2025

Department of Orthopedics and Orthopedic Research Institute, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, People's Republic of China.

Background: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a challenging condition, primarily affecting young and middle-aged individuals, which results in hip dysfunction and, ultimately, femoral head collapse. However, the comparative effectiveness of joint-preserving procedures, particularly in the early stages of ONFH (ARCO stage I or II), remains inconclusive. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a novel technique called small-diameter core decompression (CD) combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), for the treatment of early-stage ONFH.
