Background: In this prospective study of 66 patients undergoing cementless total hip arthroplasty through a minimally invasive anterolateral approach, we evaluated the impact of an intraoperative hybrid combined anteversion technique on postoperative range of motion (ROM).
Methods: After navigation of femoral stem anteversion, trial acetabular components were positioned manually, and their position recorded with navigation. Then, final components were implanted with navigation at the goals prescribed by the femur-first impingement detection algorithm. Postoperatively, three-dimensional computed tomographies were performed to determine achieved component position and model impingement-free ROM by virtual hip movement, which was compared with published values necessary for activities of daily living. This model was run a second time with the implants in the position selected by the surgeon rather than the navigation program. In addition, we researched into risk factors for ROM differences between the freehand and navigated cup position.
Results: We found a lower flexion of 8.3° (8.8°, P < .001) and lower internal rotation of 9.2° (9.5°, P < .001) for the freehand implanted cups in contrast to a higher extension of 9.8° (11.8°, P < .001) compared with the navigation-guided technique. For activities of daily living, 58.9% (33/56) in the freehand group compared with 85.7% (48/56) in the navigation group showed free flexion (P < .001) and similarly 50.0% (28/56) compared with 76.8% (43/56) free internal rotation (P < .001). Body mass index, incision length, and cup size were identified as independent risk factors for reduced flexion and internal rotation in the freehand group.
Conclusion: For implementation of a combined anteversion algorithm, intraoperative alignment guides for accurate cup positioning are required using a minimally invasive anterolateral approach. Obese patients are especially at risk of cup malpositioning.

Background: Pelvic reconstruction after type I + II (or type I + II + III) internal hemipelvectomy with extensive ilium removal is a great challenge. In an attempt to anatomically reconstruct the hip rotation center (HRC) and achieve a low mechanical failure rate, a custom-made, 3D-printed prosthesis with a porous articular interface was developed. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients treated with this prosthesis.

Purpose: Poland syndrome is a congenital malformation characterized by agenesis or hypoplasia of pectoralis muscles. There is a limited literature on how the anatomic anomalies of PS may impact the movement of the shoulder. This study analyzes the effects of absence of the pectoralis muscles on the shoulder kinematic.

Context: Nontraumatic shoulder pain (NSP) is common in volleyball, affecting performance and well-being. It is more prevalent in female players. Previous studies lack comprehensive assessments of shoulder pain that consider multiple factors, including range of motion, muscle strength, joint position sense, dynamic stability, and volleyball-specific mechanics.

Background: The last phases of a competitive game are when shoulder injuries most commonly happen, and fatigue is thought to be a major contributing factor, perhaps because of reduced proprioception and motor control. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of concentric fatigue on proprioception, motor control, and performance of the upper limb in handball players.
