Introduction: Surgical treatment of pelvic girdle pain (PGP) involves arthrodesis of sacroiliac (SI) and pubic symphysis joints. Fusion of pubic symphysis involves the implantation of an autologous iliac crest tricortical graft harvested from the iliac crest. The objective was to assess the safety of a novel synthetic graft substitute (b.

Background: Surgical management methods for Hepple IV-V osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) are diverse. This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic autologous cancellous bone grafting and medial malleolar osteotomy combined with autologous periosteal iliac bone grafting in the treatment of medial Hepple IV-V OLT.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of clinical data from patients who underwent surgical treatment for Hepple IV-V OLT (2020-2023) was conducted.

Background: No appropriate studies have been conducted that compare the biomechanical properties of different fenestration positions in deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA)-vascularized iliac bone grafts for femoral head necrosis (ONFH) treatment. In this study, we aimed to explore the fenestration locations of DCIA-vascularized iliac grafting in ONFH treatment using FEA and clinical retrospective analysis.

Methods: We simulated an iliac bone flap transplantation with a vascularized tip by finite element analysis (FEA).

Identifying a Reliable Intra-articular Landmark to Avoid Vascular Injury During Transacetabular Screw Fixation: A 3D Computed Tomography Study.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

February 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Keck Medical Center of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA (Ihn, Chung, Lovro, Patterson, Christ, and Heckmann), the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN (Chen), the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA (Tucker), and the Department of Radiology, Keck Medical Center of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA (White, and Hwang).

Introduction: Vascular injury during acetabular screw fixation is a life-threatening complication of total hip arthroplasty. This study uses three-dimensional computed tomography to (1) measure absolute distance from the external iliac artery (EIA) to the acetabulum, (2) determine available bone stock along the EIA path, and (3) create a novel acetabular vascular risk map.

Methods: A retrospective radiographic study was conducted using three-dimensional CT.
