Revision Hip Arthroscopy: Identifying Indications and Outcomes With a Mean 5-Year Follow-up
The most common indication for revision hip arthroscopy in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement remains residual impingement. Capsular instability has significant consequences for function and may represent a subset of patients who demonstrate more dysfunction before and after revision arthroscopy.
Comparison of Outcomes Between Modular Dual Mobility and Conventional Hip Implants in Primary, Elective Total Hip Arthroplasty
Modular dual mobility designs (MDM) are designed to reduce the risk of postoperative dislocations following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study investigated both the usage and outcomes (ie, patient-reported outcomes and complications) associated with MDM hips compared with conventional implant designs.
Aerobic exercise found to be most effective for knee osteoarthritis
For patients with knee osteoarthritis, aerobic activities such as walking, cycling, or swimming are likely to be the best exercise for improving pain, function, gait performance, and quality of life, finds a study published by The BMJ today.
Hip Weakness May Contribute to Knee Pain
The movement and stability of your hips and knees work together and share several muscles. The hip is a ball and socket joint and is a major weight-bearing joint in the body. There are many ligamentous attachments that add to the stability of your hip.
Successful management of PJI occurred in about 50% of patients
Results presented at the Musculoskeletal Infection Society Annual Meeting showed successful management of periprosthetic joint infection occurred in a little more than half of cases after total joint arthroplasty.
