Wrist block has been used to provide pain relief
for many procedures on the hand and wrist but its role in arthroscopy
of the wrist remains unexplored. Chondrotoxicity has been a concern
with the intra-articular infiltration of local anaesthetic. We aimed
to evaluate and compare the analgesic effect of portal and wrist
joint infiltration with a wrist block on the pain experienced by
patients after
Over an eight-month period we prospectively enrolled 122 patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery of the hip for femoroacetabular impingement and met the inclusion criteria for this study. Patients with bilateral hip
Disorders of the pisotriquetral joint are well recognised as the cause of pain on the ulnar side of the wrist. The joint is not usually examined during routine
Reconstructive acetabular osteotomy is a well established and effective procedure in the treatment of acetabular dysplasia. However, the dysplasia is frequently accompanied by intra-articular pathology such as labral tears. We intended to determine whether a concomitant hip
There is a known association between femoroacetabular impingement and osteoarthritis of the hip. What is not known is whether arthroscopic excision of an impingement lesion can significantly improve a patient’s symptoms. This study compares the results of hip

The purpose of this study was to determine patient-reported
outcomes of patients with mild to moderate developmental dysplasia
of the hip (DDH) and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) undergoing
arthroscopy of the hip in the treatment of chondrolabral pathology.
A total of 28 patients with a centre-edge angle between 15° and
19° were identified from an institutional database. Their mean age
was 34 years (18 to 53), with 12 female and 16 male patients. All
underwent labral treatment and concomitant correction of FAI. There
were nine reoperations, with two patients requiring revision
A study has been made of 800 consecutive arthroscopic examinations of the knee with special emphasis on the changes in management that resulted. Of 614 knees that would have been operated upon if

Idiopathic calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (pseudogout) has a variable presentation. Many joints are usually affected; single joint disease is uncommon. We present a case report of primary monoarticular pseudogout affecting the hip. The diagnosis was made on the appearance and analysis of specimens obtained at
