Project description:Orthopaedic surgeries by video arthroscopy have become increasingly popular, as they allow joint treatment through small incisions and minimal tissue damage. However, their execution requires specific skills from the surgeon, different from open surgery, which can only be achieved through practical training. These skills would be ideally performed on human cadaveric anatomical pieces which, however, can be difficult to access for different reasons. Animal anatomical models for surgical skills training have been used for years in medicine, and we observed that the bovine knee has anatomical characteristics quite similar to that of the human knee. In this study, we explain, step by step, the installation and creation of an arthroscopy laboratory with a bovine model, in an effort to contribute to several training centers in arthroscopic surgery around the world, assisting and guiding such centers to install arthroscopy laboratories and facilitating the improvement of more surgeons.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy is increasing in popularity for the diagnosis and management of hip preservation. The basics of hip arthroscopy positioning, fluoroscopic assessment, and portal establishment are reviewed in the first 2 parts of this series. This article is the third installment in which we describe a systematic approach to performing a diagnostic hip arthroscopy. A mastery of diagnostic arthroscopy is necessary for surgeons treating hip disorders.

Project description:PurposeThe purpose of this study is to investigate the importance of general and specific surgical skills for hip arthroscopy from the perspective of surgeons in China. Concurrently, we intend to identify the preferred type of simulation that would facilitate competency of surgical trainees in performing arthroscopy and reinforce their preparation for carrying out the actual surgical procedure.MethodsAn online survey comprising 42 questions was developed by experts in hip arthroscopy and sent to 3 online communities whose members are arthroscopic surgeons in China. The responses collected were based on a 5-point Likert scale, with an open-ended comment section. Data were analyzed using one-way AVOVA and post hoc Tukey's test.ResultsA total of 159 valid responses from 66 junior specialist surgeons, 68 consultant surgeons, and 25 senior consultant surgeons (from 130 institutions in 27 out of 34 provincial administrative districts in China) were collected. Cognitive ability was identified as the overall most important attribute for hip arthroscopic trainees to possess, while skills relevant to the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) were considered as the most important specific skills by the surgeons surveyed. In addition, simulation using cadaveric specimens was considered the most favorable method for surgeons to practice their surgical skills.ConclusionIn designing a training program for hip arthroscopy, it is essential to incorporate features that evaluate cognitive skills. It would be helpful for trainees to specifically practice skills that are often used in the treatment of some very common diseases of the hip joint, such as FAI. Using high-fidelity physical models for simulation to train skills of hip arthroscopy could be an ideal alternative and effective way to overcome problems arising from the lack of accessibility to cadaveric specimens.

Project description:The management of hip injuries in the athlete has evolved significantly in the past few years with the advancement of arthroscopic techniques. The application of minimally invasive surgical techniques has facilitated relatively rapid returns to sporting activity in recreational and elite athletes alike. Recent advancements in both hip arthroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging have elucidated several sources of intraarticular pathology that result in chronic and disabling hip symptoms. Many of these conditions were previously unrecognized and thus, left untreated. Current indications for hip arthroscopy include management of labral tears, osteoplasty for femoroacetabular impingement, thermal capsulorrhaphy and capsular plication for subtle rotational instability and capsular laxity, lateral impact injury and chondral lesions, osteochondritis dissecans, ligamentum teres injuries, internal and external snapping hip, removal of loose bodies, synovial biopsy, subtotal synovectomy, synovial chondromatosis, infection, and certain cases of mild to moderate osteoarthritis with associated mechanical symptoms. In addition, patients with long-standing, unresolved hip joint pain and positive physical findings may benefit from arthroscopic evaluation. Patients with reproducible symptoms and physical findings that reveal limited functioning, and who have failed an adequate trial of conservative treatment will have the greatest likelihood of success after surgical intervention. Strict attention to thorough diagnostic examination, detailed imaging, and adherence to safe and reproducible surgical techniques, as described in this review, are essential for the success of this procedure.

Project description:We describe the use of intraoperative ultrasound for the safe development of arthroscopic portals during hip arthroscopy without the requirement for fluoroscopy. We find this technique consistently accurate, allowing the safe introduction of arthroscopic instruments into the hip with a very low rate of iatrogenic injury. We have further developed the technique for application to both central- and peripheral-compartment procedures. We now have a total experience of more than 700 procedures to date. With the described technique of ultrasound guidance for portal placement, fluoroscopy is required in fewer than 2% of hip arthroscopy procedures at our institution.

Project description:Many patients are afflicted with painful conditions affecting both hips, most commonly femoroacetabular impingement. Some patients prefer the advantage of undergoing a single surgical procedure and anesthetic followed by a single postoperative rehabilitation program. We present a Technical Note on single-stage bilateral hip arthroscopy. This Technical Note reports on key steps enabling safe and efficient performance of bilateral arthroscopic acetabuloplasty, labral refixation, femoroplasty, and dynamic testing while limiting traction times and facilitating rapid transition to the second hip arthroscopic surgery. Enabling factors include supine positioning with bilateral mobile leg spars, rapid surgical and hip traction times, and postoperative rehabilitation with immediate weight bearing as tolerated. A rationale for deciding which hip should undergo arthroscopy first is also offered. Concurrent bilateral hip arthroscopy is a viable option for select patients and experienced surgical teams, enabling potentially expedited recovery and return to work or sport with inherent cost savings.

Project description:In the realm of hip preservation, hip arthroscopy is often used to address intra-articular impingement pathology, whereas periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is used to address dysplasia and instability. Indications to combine these 2 procedures include hip dysplasia and symptomatic instability with a concomitant symptomatic labral tear or the other symptomatic intra-articular pathology (i.e., loose body, chondral flap). The arthroscopic portion of the procedure allows repair of the injured labrum and close inspection of the hip joint, and the PAO addresses undercoverage and/or inappropriate version of the acetabulum. The open approach used in PAO also allows access to the peripheral compartment to debride a cam lesion, if present, and the subspine region is accessible to perform subspine decompression, if needed. In this technique, we highlight special considerations pertaining to hip arthroscopy that is performed in combination with a PAO. Hip arthroscopy is the first procedure that takes place in this combined case, and modifications to the standard hip arthroscopic technique can prevent unnecessary difficulty during the PAO that follows.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Hip arthroscopy is a common surgical intervention for young and middle-aged adults with hip-related pain and dysfunction, who have high expectations for returning to physical activity following surgery. The purpose of this review was to evaluate the impact of hip arthroscopy on physical activity post-arthroscopy. METHODS:A systematic search of electronic databases was undertaken in identifying studies from January 1st 1990 to December 5th 2019. The search included English language articles reporting physical activity as an outcome following hip arthroscopy in adults aged 18-50 years. Quality assessment, data extraction and synthesis of included studies were undertaken. RESULTS:Full text articles (n = 234) were assessed for eligibility following screening of titles and abstracts (n = 2086), yielding 120 studies for inclusion. The majority (86%) of the studies were level 4 evidence. No studies reported objective activity data. The most frequently occurring patient-reported outcome measure was the Hip Outcome Score-sport-specific subscale (HOS-SS, 84% of studies). Post--arthroscopy improvement was indicated by large effect sizes for patient-reported outcome measures (standard paired difference [95% confidence interval] -1.35[-1.61 to -1.09] at more than 2 years post-arthroscopy); however, the majority of outcome scores for the HOS-SS did not meet the defined level for a patient-acceptable symptom state. CONCLUSION:The current level of available information regarding physical activity for post arthroscopy patients is limited in scope. Outcomes have focused on patients' perceived difficulties with sport-related activities with a paucity of information on the type, quality and quantity of activity undertaken. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:Level IV, systematic review of Level 2 through to Level 4 studies.

Project description:The popularity of hip arthroscopy has increased significantly over the past decade. It is technically demanding and may be associated with complications such as iatrogenic damage to the articular cartilage or acetabular labrum, compression injuries to the structures in the perineum, and distraction injuries to the leg. Some of these complications can be avoided by paying meticulous attention to the technique and reducing the traction/surgical time. We describe a technique by which the risk of injury to the articular cartilage may be minimized by introduction of the surgical instruments under direct vision, rather than under radiologic control. The described technique is likely to reduce the operating time by addressing the peripheral-compartment pathologies first-without traction. Traction is only required for the central-compartment procedures. Exposure to ionizing radiation is also diminished (eliminated with practice) because the portals are established under direct vision of the arthroscopist.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy has been increasing tremendously in the past decade and is a very common surgical procedure to repair femoroacetabular impingement. To access the hip joint, distraction is mandatory to treat intra-articular disorders such as labral tears, cartilage loose bodies, and ligamentum teres tears and to evaluate the condition of the femoral head and acetabular cartilage. To distract the hip, counterdistraction is needed, and this is achieved with placement of a bulky and cushioned perineal post. Most of the described techniques in hip arthroscopy use a perineal post, whereas others use beanbags to place the patient's body on the surgical table. Still others do not use a post at all but rather use gravity and a Trendelenburg position to achieve distraction. Our technique does not use a perineal post but instead uses heavy-duty tape over the patient's upper body, which is placed on a normal operating room table to distract the hip while entering the central compartment.
