PURPOSE To report mean 2-year patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and the incidence of revision hip arthroscopy or conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients who had undergone arthroscopic reconstruction of the hip labrum for segmental defects. METHODS Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed on all patients who had undergone hip arthroscopy from April 2008 to A...

Clinically important outcome assessment has been a point of increasing emphasis in the orthopaedic literature. The minimal clinically difference, patient acceptable symptom state, and substantial clinical benefit are most reported hip preservation Maximal improvement (MOI) is now also being reported; however, its relation to patients undergoing surgery not well understood. threshold values that...

To evaluate the effects of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coating on the outcomes of a grit-blasted tapered-wedge stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA), we performed a retrospective review of 141 THAs using MAO coated stem for a minimum of 5years and compared them to 219 THAs using the same geometry stem without MAO coating. Harris hip score improved from 43.7 points preoperatively to 93.9 points pos...

Neglected traumatic posterior hip dislocation is not an uncommon condition seen in developing countries. Its treatment is fraught with great difficulties and controversies. Here we present a 31-year-old female patient presented to our hospital 2 years after sustaining an accident. She had gone through multiple treatments for her dislocated hip without any success. After arrival to our hospital,...

BACKGROUND Outcome data on two-stage revision surgery for deep infection after septic hip arthritis are limited and inconsistent. This study presents the medium-term results of a new, standardized two-stage arthroplasty with preformed hip spacers and cementless implants in a consecutive series of adult patients with septic arthritis of the hip treated according to a same protocol. METHODS Nin...

We compared the dynamic instability of 25 dysplastic hips in 25 patients using triaxial accelerometry before and one year after periacetabular osteotomy. We also evaluated the hips clinically using the Harris hip score and assessed acetabular orientation by radiography before surgery and after one year. The mean overall magnitude of acceleration was significantly reduced from 2.30 m/s(2) (sd 0....

Objective: To compare the frequency of a good functional outcome in unstable per-trochanteric fractures fixed with dynamic hip screw and proximal femoral nail using Harris Hip Score. Methodology: A comparative study was conducted at Department Orthopaedic Surgery, Pakistan Institute Medical Sciences, Islamabad, from June to December 2021. total 80 patients femur were selected divided into two g...

PURPOSE To compare the results of mini-incision total hip replacement (MITHR) to the standard posterior approach and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of MITHR. METHODS 60 patients with osteoarthritis of the hip underwent total hip replacement utilising a mini-incision technique. They were compared to a matched cohort of patients who received the standard posterior approach. The avera...

BACKGROUND Total hip replacement is a commonly accepted treatment for disorders of the hip. The paper reviews the clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasties performed in young patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-eight total hip arthroplasties were performed in twenty-one young patients between 1996 and 2005. The mean age of the patient at the time of the operation was 25...
