Coxarthrosis is a common problem. Changes in all articular structures during coxarthrosis were described extensively, besides labrum. This study was designed to:
describe histological changes in the labrum during coxarthrosis, and correlate them with radiographic changes compare changes in various portions of the labrum assess labrum status in main etiological types of coxarthrosis.
In the last decades the number of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in skeletally immature patients (SIP) increased as a result of the participation in competitive sports at younger age and improved diagnostic tools allowing early diagnosis of ACL injury. Although the eminence avulsion fracture is more frequent in SIP and considered the ACL injury pediatric equivalent, intra-substance ACL injury in children is a growing problem. With torn ACL injured knee remains unstable. This instability is poorly tolerated in teens since it is difficult to limit their activity and leads to meniscal and chondral tears and causes resignation from sport carrier. Intraarticular transphyseal ACL reconstruction seems to be effective technique to restore knee stability despite potential iatrogenic complications such as epiphisiodesis, leg length discrepancy and axial malalignment. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and results of this method and assess frequency of potential complications.
