Introduction: Acetabular fracture fixation principles stated by Letournel and Judet have contributed significantly towards advancement in treatment methodologies. Current day techniques helps to achieve anatomical reduction, still post-traumatic arthritis ensues in some patients. A meta-analysis by Giannoudis et al.

Introduction: In 2020, 368 million people globally were affected by knee osteoarthritis, and prevalence is projected to increase with 74% by 2050. Relatively high rates of dissatisfactory results after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), as reported by approximately 20% of patients, may be caused by sub-optimal knee alignment and balancing. While mechanical alignment has traditionally been the goal, patient-specific alignment strategies are gaining interest.

Background: The gluteus medius and minimus muscles play a critical role in hip biomechanics, however there is a paucity of literature examining the impact of preoperative gluteal pathology on outcomes following total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study compared pain, satisfaction, and functional outcomes among patients who had and did not have preoperative gluteal pathology after direct anterior (DA) THA.
Methods: Using an institutional total joint registry, patients undergoing DA THA for osteoarthritis between 2010 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed.

Background: Hip dysplasia diagnosed after skeletal maturity is distinct from developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in infants and young children. While the natural history of DDH in infants and young children is well-established, the association between hip dysplasia diagnosed after skeletal maturity and osteoarthritis is less clear. This narrative review summarizes existing literature assessing characteristics of hip dysplasia diagnosed after skeletal maturity associated with progression to osteoarthritis.

Background: Dislocation remains a common complication following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Previous literature has shown that the femoral head-to-neck ratio is essential in hip motion, function, and stability. While large femoral heads and dual mobility bearings have been developed to improve stability, it remains unknown if the ratio between femoral head size to acetabular cup size also plays a role in stability.
