Posterior Medial Meniscus Root Tears: Clinical Implications, Surgical Management, and Post-operative Rehabilitation Considerations.
Int J Sports Phys Ther
January 2025
Orthopedic surgery Twin Cities Orthopedics.
Tears of the posterior medial meniscus root (PMMR) are common in older patients and reportedly contribute to rapid joint degeneration over time. Recognition of these tear types and the appropriate diagnosis through clinical exam and diagnostic imaging have improved significantly in recent years, as have surgical techniques to address them. Standardized post-operative rehabilitation protocols specific to PMMR repair have not been established or well understood in the scientific literature.

Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Steadman Philippon Research Institute, Vail, Colorado, USA.
Background: Sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) instability can lead to pain, reduced function, and an inability to perform sports and activities of daily living. Reconstruction of the SCJ using hamstring autograft in a figure-of-8 configuration has demonstrated good outcomes at short- and midterm follow-ups, but there is a paucity of literature on long-term outcomes.
Purpose: To evaluate the long-term clinical and functional outcomes after SCJ reconstruction, with a focus on return to sport, instability recurrence, and revision surgery.
Current trends for venous thromboembolic prophylaxis for hip arthroscopy: a modified Delphi and nominal group technique consensus study.

Article Synopsis
- * A study surveyed 35 experienced hip surgeons, revealing that 91.4% use chemoprophylaxis, primarily aspirin, with varying durations suggested, mostly between 2 to 4 weeks post-surgery.
- * While most experts agree on the importance of VTE prophylaxis, there is no consensus on the best duration for treatment or recommendations regarding stopping oral contraceptives and smoking before the surgery.
Endoscopic Iliopsoas Fractional Lengthening as a Treatment for Refractory Iliopsoas Impingement After Total Hip Arthroplasty Shows Favorable Functional Outcomes With No Impact on Range of Motion.
Arthroscopy
December 2024
American Hip Institute Research Foundation, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.; American Hip Institute, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.. Electronic address:
Purpose: To report the minimum 2-year clinical outcomes of endoscopic iliopsoas fractional lengthening (IFL) in patients with recalcitrant iliopsoas tendinitis after total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: Data were prospectively collected from 2014 to 2020 for patients who underwent IFL after primary THA as part of our institutional hip outcomes registry. Patients were included if they had completed the following patient-reported outcomes preoperatively and at minimum 2-year follow-up: modified Harris Hip Score and visual analog scale score.
Patient-Reported Outcomes after Surgery for Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis in the Knee: A Cohort Study.
J Knee Surg
November 2024
Department of Orthopaedics, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland.
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare neoplastic proliferation of large joints, including the knee, with both localized PVNS (LPVNS) and diffuse PVNS (DPVNS) types. DPVNS is known to recur at a higher rate following resection; however, there is little evidence comparing patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between the two types. The purpose of this study was to compare PROs between patients with LPVNS and DPVNS involving the knee 2 years after surgical resection.
