Cam Impingement of the Knee: Arthroscopic Correction of Posteromedial Tibiofemoral Incongruence.

ABSTRACT: One of the anatomic variations observable within the knee joint is a reduction in the posterior curvature of the femoral metaphysis proximal to the medial femoral condyle. This curvature is usually concave enough to fit the posterior horn of the medial meniscus (PHMM) during full knee flexion. A reduction in curvature may result in posteromedial tibiofemoral incongruence, a condition characterized by compression of the PHMM in full knee flexion, similar to cam incongruence in the hip joint. Clinical symptoms may occur in deep knee flexion, and progressive degeneration of the PHMM can be observed if this position is not prohibited. For patients in whom activity modification and conservative treatment have failed, surgery may be indicated. We describe arthroscopic treatment allowing for final intraoperative confirmation of the clinical indication for posteromedial tibiofemoral incongruence correction, as well as allowing for the least possible, yet sufficient, amount of correction.

Arthroscopic Management of Posteromedial Ankle Impingement.

Project description:Posteromedial ankle impingement is a rare clinical entity. It usually follows an inversion injury, with compression of the posterior tibiotalar ligament between the medial malleolus and talus. This can be treated by posterior ankle endoscopy through the posteromedial and posterolateral portals. The flexor hallucis longus tendon can be examined for any tenosynovitis or tendinopathy. The posteromedial corner of the ankle joint is reached with the instruments staying on the lateral side of the flexor hallucis longus tendon. The inflamed synovium, scar tissue, and fibrillated cartilage are debrided.

Arthroscopic correction for concomitant cam impingement in a patient with idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: A case report.

Project description:A 53-year-old man presented with pain in the right hip. Radiological examination showed idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) combined with a cam lesion. Findings on physical examination were consistent for femoroacetabular impingement. At surgery, we performed isolated arthroscopic correction for the cam lesion but did not use other treatment options such as hip arthroplasty or osteotomies for the ONFH. At the latest follow-up evaluation 3 years after surgery, findings indicted a satisfactory outcome, with a Harris hip score of 93.2 (compared with 76.4 before surgery), no joint-space narrowing, and no collapse of the femoral head. It is important to accurately diagnose the status of idiopathic ONFH and to consider another possible pathogenesis when a patient with idiopathic ONFH has hip pain even without femoral-head collapse.

Arthroscopic Femoral Osteochondroplasty for Cam-Type Femoroacetabular Impingement: The Trough Technique.

Project description:Arthroscopic osteochondroplasty has become the most common treatment for cam-type femoroacetabular impingement. However, gauging the appropriate depth and location of the femoral osteochondroplasty remains challenging, given the parallax observed from using a 70° arthroscope across multiple viewing perspectives. Consequently, reliable techniques must use a combination of arthroscopic and fluoroscopic checks and balances to assess the femoral head-neck junction to help guide bony resection. We have developed a technique for osteochondroplasty that has made the process more efficient and reliable in our hands. It involves creating a trough at the apex of the osteochondroplasty and then contouring the proximal and distal regions to re-create normal proximal femoral geometry. This article details our technique for femoral osteochondroplasty, which can be performed alone for isolated cam impingement or in concert with other intra- and extra-articular procedures to address associated hip pathology.

Arthroscopic Posteromedial Capsular Release.

Project description:Post-traumatic or postsurgical flexion contractures of the knee can significantly limit function and lead to gait abnormalities. In this setting, interventions to regain full extension may include bracing, physical therapy, and open or arthroscopic surgery. Open surgical approaches to restore full motion often demand extensive recovery and promote further adhesions and loss of motion, which has led to the advent of arthroscopic techniques to address these pathologies. We present a safe, effective, and reproducible arthroscopic technique for posteromedial capsular release to address knee flexion contractures.

Arthroscopic Femoral Osteochondroplasty for Cam-type Femoroacetabular Impingement: Cortical-Cancellous Sclerotic Boundary Guides Resection Depth.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy and femoral osteochondroplasty are commonly used in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Determining the correct resection depth of the femoral head-neck cam lesion intraoperatively can be challenging. Both inadequate resection and over-resection may result in complications, underlying the importance of using a consistent and accurate technique when resecting and reshaping the proximal femur. Osseous resection to a depth of the subchondral cortical-cancellous bone margin in individuals with FAI has been shown to restore proximal femoral anatomy to within submillimeter differences when compared with control subjects without FAI. This bony boundary may be used as an intraoperative guide to consistently achieve appropriate resection depth. The sclerotic margin indicating the extent of the cam-type deformity can be evaluated with preoperative radiographs and recreated fluoroscopically, giving the surgeon a reliable intraoperative template. In addition, changes in clinical appearance during arthroscopy, particularly identification of the underlying trabecular structure at the cortical-cancellous border during resection, provides a visible, reliable intraoperative guide to resection depth.

Arthroscopic technique for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement.

Project description:With an increasing understanding of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and advancement of the surgical treatment in patients with FAI, various techniques have been published. Successful outcome after arthroscopic hip surgery depends on appropriately reshaping the bony architecture to allow for improved range of motion before impingement symptoms occur, with special attention to preserve the labrum and restore its function. We present our surgical technique for the arthroscopic treatment of FAI.

Arthroscopic Decompression of a Type III Subspine Impingement.

Project description:Extra-articular hip impingement refers to a variety of hip disorders causing pain and limited function in young, non-arthritic patients. Recently, there has been an increased focus on analyzing the degree of anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) dysmorphism and its correlation with subspine impingement (SSI), defined as abutment between a prominent distal aspect of the AIIS and the anterior aspect of the femoral head-neck junction. Arthroscopic decompression of the AIIS is recognized as an effective treatment for SSI. However, there may be some inherent risks of performing this procedure arthroscopically that require further investigation.

Computer-Assisted Hip Arthroscopic Surgery for Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:Precise osteochondroplasty is key for success in hip arthroscopic surgery, especially for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) caused by cam or pincer morphology. In this Technical Note, we present computer-assisted hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI, including preoperative planning by virtual osteochondroplasty and intraoperative computer navigation assistance. The important concept of this technique is that navigation assistance for osteochondroplasty is based on planning made by computer simulation analysis. The navigation assistance allows us to perform neither too much nor too little osteochondroplasty. Specifically, computer simulation was used to identify the impingement point. Virtual osteochondroplasty was then performed to determine the maneuvers that would improve range of motion. Thereafter, the planning data were transported to a computed tomography-based computer navigation system that directly provided intraoperative assistance. Thus, computer-assisted technology including preoperative simulation, virtual osteochondroplasty planning, and intraoperative navigation assistance may promote precise hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI.

Arthroscopic decompression of central acetabular impingement with notchplasty.

Project description:Acetabular notch osteophytes are often encountered during routine diagnostic arthroscopy of the hip. It has been our observation that when notch osteophytes are present, there is often corresponding chondral damage to the anterosuperior femoral head and ligamentum teres degeneration. We propose that removal of the notch osteophyte and decompression of the articulating surface offer an effective method of delaying the progression of arthritis. This article describes in detail the technique used to perform arthroscopic acetabular notchplasty, and a companion video, demonstrating the procedure, is included. Our experience suggests that decompression of the acetabular notch can remove offending structural abnormalities that can potentially cause further chondral damage and may hasten the progression of arthritis.
