The pathophysiology of rotator cuff disease is complex, involving intrinsic and extrinsic factors that contribute to mechanical alterations, inflammation, apoptosis, and neovascularization. These changes result in structural and cellular disruptions, including inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen disorganization. Macrophages have recently gained attention as critical mediators of tissue repair and regeneration.

Background: The role of local infiltration anesthesia (LIA) in knee surgery is significant. LIA can be more potent than a nerve block, but without the downsides. A wide range of agents are used for LIA, including some off-label medications such as dexmedetomidine and ropivacaine.

Background: The consequences of septic arthritis of natural joints may be devastating. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional results of medical approach and surgical approach for septic arthritis of native joints, and to explore whether the number of drainage tubes after arthroscopic surgery will affect the knee function of patients.
Methods: A single-center retrospective study was conducted on patients diagnosed with septic arthritis from January 2018 to January 2023.

Background: The ligamentum teres (LT) has received attention in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Indeed, a better understanding of the function of the LT and its implications for clinical outcomes in the presence of a torn LT is required. This systematic review analyses the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and the complication rate when an intact or torn LT is encountered during HA for FAI.

Particular attention has been paid to the hip capsule, as the complex of the iliofemoral, pubofemoral, and ischiofemoral ligaments, as well as the zona orbicularis and iliocapsularis, all play an essential role in hip stability, mechanics, and maintenance of intra-articular pressures. An anatomic approach toward hip arthroscopy also includes labral repair or reconstruction with preservation of the chondrolabral junction and cam resection.
