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
To report the five-year results of a randomised controlled trial
examining the effectiveness of arthroscopic acromioplasty in the
treatment of stage II shoulder impingement syndrome. A total of 140 patients were randomly divided into two groups:
1) supervised exercise programme (n = 70, exercise group); and 2)
arthroscopic acromioplasty followed by a similar exercise programme
(n = 70, combined treatment group).Objectives
