Changes from baseline to 24-months were measured in the pain subscale of the knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) and in KOOS overall (average of all five subscales) in patients that had received a medial meniscus implant.

Of the remaining 100 patients, the mean KOOS pain improved 28.4 points at 24 months (P <0.001), and mean KOOS overall improved 28.3 points (P < 0.001). Seventy-six percent of subjects had mean scores for KOOS pain above the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) threshold, and 72% of subjects met or exceeded this threshold for KOOS overall.

Patients who retained the implant or required implant exchange showed significantly improved pain, function, and quality of life at 24-month follow-up in patients symptomatic following partial medial meniscectomy and failed non-operative management. The high reoperation rate is a concern, and further evaluation is needed to determine any contributing factors.</p>","PeriodicalId":55459,"journal":{"name":"Arthroscopy-The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142592240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Primary stability of the hip comes from bony coverage of the femoral head, influenced by acetabular version and femoral antetorsion. In addition, soft tissue structures such as the acetabular labrum, the ligamentum teres, and the hip capsule play a significant role in maintaining joint stability. Untreated hip instability may lead to pathological force transmission between the acetabular socket and femoral head, and subluxation resulting in osteoarthritis. Historically, pelvic and/or femoral osteotomies have been performed to increase hip stability and prevent joint degeneration. However, osteotomies do not address soft tissue instability or lesions of intra-articular structures, which could explain symptoms following bony correction. Furthermore, the rate of combined pathologies resulting in hip instability and femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is high. Modern hip arthroscopy enables reconstruction and stabilization of soft tissue structures and the correction of bony pathologies caused by FAIS. Minimally invasive procedures can help avoid overtreatment and unnecessary risks associated with more invasive osteotomies. However, in cases of ongoing symptoms after arthroscopic treatment for mild instability, or for patients with severe dysplasia, concomitant PAO and arthroscopy can combine bony correction of a PAO with intra-articular therapies of hip arthroscopy.</p>","PeriodicalId":55459,"journal":{"name":"Arthroscopy-The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142559554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
