Objectives: A subset of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy suffers from persistent pain and dysfunction which can be secondary to a number factors. Femoral rotational deformities are often overlooked and/or providers unsure when address femoral deformities. Currently, there is limited no data guiding surgeons consider osteotomy at the time for FAI. Through previously validated computer-assiste...

Following the high clinical failure rates of metal-on-metal total hip replacements much work has been undertaken to investigate their poor performance. So called adverse loading scenarios such as acetabular inclination and microseparation have attributed indicators for implants. The ISO simulation standards (ISO 14242:1) still rely on gravimetric ex situ analysis, considering only wear during a...

BACKGROUND Total shoulder arthroplasty is technically demanding in regard to implantation of the glenoid component, especially in the setting of increased glenoid deformity and posterior glenoid wear. Augmented glenoid implants are an important and innovative option; however, there is little evidence accessible to surgeons to guide in the selection of the appropriate size augmented glenoid. M...

BACKGROUND We aimed to analyze the range of motion (ROM) and internal rotation (IR) and external rotation (ER) isokinetic strength according to humeral retroversion of the dominant shoulder. METHODS We included 40 elite baseball players in Korea (OBP group: n=20 players with careers spanning >10 years, age: 19.37±2.21 years, height: 181.00±5.41 cm, weight: 84.58±7.85 kg; BBP group: n=20 playe...

BACKGROUND The most common sequela of neonatal brachial plexus palsy is an internal rotation contracture of the shoulder that impairs function and leads to skeletal deformation of the glenohumeral joint. Treatment options include release, transfers, and humeral osteotomy, all ultimately striving for better function through increased external rotation. Prior studies have shown that neonatal brac...

BACKGROUND The impact of proximal femoral and combined femoral and acetabular version on patient-reported outcomes after arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) remains undefined. The purpose of this study was to identify associations of proximal femoral version as well as combined version (McKibbin index) with disease-specific, validated, patient-reported outcomes following...
