Proximal femur osteochondromas are relatively rare, particularly in the femoral neck. The choice of treatment poses difficulties to the surgeon. We report an unusual case of a patient with 2 osteochondromas in the femoral neck causing femoroacetabular impingement. Appropriate identification and precise resection of the lesions are important steps of the surgical procedure. We present our arthroscopic surgical technique to access the lesions and perform their resection. To our knowledge, this is the first report of hip arthroscopic resection of 2 osteochondromas with considerable dimensions causing femoroacetabular impingement.

Secondary femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a severe complication observed after acetabular osteotomy; however, the diagnostic and treatment strategies of FAI have not been well established, especially with respect to arthroscopic techniques. We here describe hip arthroscopic osteochondroplasty for secondary FAI using computer-assisted techniques. The main features and tips of our technique are preoperative computed tomography (CT)-based surgical planning and the intraoperative capsule takedown method.

In a knee with cam impingement of the posterior femoral condyle, the posterior horn of the medial meniscus (PHMM) is pinched and damaged between the medial femoral condyle (MFC) and the medial tibial plateau during deep flexion of the knee. The cam impingement is caused by an osseous bulge on the posteromedial surface of the distal femoral metaphysis and the absence of an alcove for the PHMM at the junction of the MFC and the posteromedial metaphysis of the femur. Therefore, the osseous bulge needs to be resected and the alcove needs to be restored when the PHMM is decompressed.

Aim: The aim of this work is to develop and operationally define performance metrics that characterize a reference approach to circular stapling anastomosis during minimally invasive left-sided colorectal resection and to obtain face and content validity through a consensus meeting.
Method: Three expert colorectal surgeons with advanced experience with minimally invasive surgery, a senior behavioural scientist and a research fellow with experience in performance metrics development formed the Metrics Group. Technical support was provided by device engineers.

Purpose: The MPP (medial patella plica) has garnered increasing clinical attention due to its potential role in patellofemoral pain syndromes. While often an anatomical relic without pathological significance, inflammation or mechanical irritation of this structure can lead to plica syndrome, causing significant clinical symptoms. The purpose of this study was to analyze the current care situation regarding plica syndrome of the knee among a large number of experienced knee surgeons.
