The purpose of this study was to evaluate the existing literature from 2005 to 2016 reporting on the efficacy of surgical management of patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) secondary to slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). The electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched and screened in duplicate. Data such as patient demographics, surgical technique, surgical outcomes and complications were retrieved from eligible studies.Objectives
Methods
The aims of the study were to report for a cohort aged younger than 40 years: 1) indications for HRA; 2) patient-reported outcomes in terms of the modified Harris Hip Score (HHS); 3) dislocation rate; and 4) revision rate. This retrospective analysis identified 267 hips from 224 patients who underwent an hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) from a single fellowship-trained surgeon using the direct lateral approach between 2007 and 2019. Inclusion criteria was minimum two-year follow-up, and age younger than 40 years. Patients were followed using a prospectively maintained institutional database.Aims
Methods
The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) has demonstrated faster administration, lower burden of data capture and reduced floor and ceiling effects compared to traditional Patient Reported Outcomes Measurements (PROMs). We investigated the suitability of PROMIS Mobility score in assessing physical function in the sequelae of childhood hip disease. In all, 266 adolscents (aged ≥ 12 years) and adults were identified with a prior diagnosis of childhood hip disease (either Perthes’ disease (n = 232 (87.2%)) or Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (n = 34 (12.8%)) with a mean age of 27.73 years (SD 12.24). Participants completed the PROMIS Mobility Computer Adaptive Test, the Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire, and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale. We investigated the correlation between the PROMIS Mobility and other tools to assess use in this population and any clustering of outcome scores.Aims
Methods
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) causes pain
and chondrolabral damage via mechanical overload during movement
of the hip. It is caused by many different types of pathoanatomy,
including the cam ‘bump’, decreased head–neck offset, acetabular
retroversion, global acetabular overcoverage, prominent anterior–inferior
iliac spine, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and the sequelae
of childhood Perthes’ disease. Both evolutionary and developmental factors may cause FAI. Prevalence
studies show that anatomic variations that cause FAI are common
in the asymptomatic population. Young athletes may be predisposed
to FAI because of the stress on the physis during development. Other
factors, including the soft tissues, may also influence symptoms and
chondrolabral damage. FAI and the resultant chondrolabral pathology are often treated
arthroscopically. Although the results are favourable, morphologies
can be complex, patient expectations are high and the surgery is
challenging. The long-term outcomes of hip arthroscopy are still
forthcoming and it is unknown if treatment of FAI will prevent arthrosis.
