Objective: To study the effect of greater trochanteric slide osteotomy(GTSO) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the treatment of stiff hip, as well as the potential complications.
Methods: There were 12 cases enrolled in the study from April 2010 to December 2014, including 9 males and 3 females. The mean age was 49.9 years old (ranged, 37 to 62 years old). The clinical result was evaluated according to the Harris evaluation system, and the radiological evaluations included the healing of the osteotomy, the stability of the prosthesis, and occurrence of heterotopic ossification (HA).
Results: The mean follow-up period was 17.3 months (ranged, 15 to 22 months). The mean postoperative Harris score was 88.00±6.11, which was significantly higher than the preoperative mean score which was 43.96±8.46(=-18.34, =0.00). All the osteotomy site abtained good healing without prosthesis loosening or HA. There was 1 patient with infection and 1 patient with pain in greater trochanter.
Conclusions: GTSO is an effective exposure technique in THA for stiff hip, and no marked complication associated with the osteotomy is found in the study.

Purpose: Previous studies have shown that subtrochanteric femoral fractures treated with intramedullary nails might lead to varus-procurvatum malalignment. Similar results have been reported when using antegrade intramedullary lengthening nails (ILNs). The purpose of our study is to examine if antegrade telescoping intramedullary lengthening nails lead to varus-procurvatum malalignment of the proximal femur and what are possible predictors of that shift.

Introduction: Unstable pelvic fractures cause significant bleeding, morbidity, and mortality. Commercially available Pelvic Circumferential Compression Devices (PCCDs) are used in the initial resuscitation and management of these cases. In the trauma-burdened, resource limited setting of Southern Africa, the available alternative is a pelvic sheet binder (PSB).

Background: Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a painful condition that can impair a patient's quality of life. If nonoperative measures fail, progressively more invasive treatment options may be required. This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma (LR-PRP) injections in the treatment of refractory GTPS caused by bursitis and/or gluteal tendinopathy.

Introduction: Functional tests are used to establish the functional capacity of women with Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS). However, the validity, reliability, or possibility of discriminating this dysfunction have not been established.
Objectives: To compare functional capacity, establish the properties of functional test measurements, and present the best test to discriminate between women with and without GTPS.

Background: Hip abductor tendon tears have been identified as a common cause of greater trochanteric pain syndrome. While abductor tendon tears are often managed surgically, the optimal tendon attachment technique remains controversial.
Purpose: To compare the outcomes of hip abductor tendon repair between the suture anchor (SA) and transosseous suture (TS) techniques.
