Article Abstract

The size of the acetabular labrum has been shown to be larger in patients with acetabular hip dysplasia and smaller in patients with acetabular overcoverage. Compensatory morphologic changes to the acetabular labrum are potentially useful as an imaging biomarker of hip stability, and with additional future outcomes investigation, imaging measures may be used to guide the type and extent of hip preservation surgery.

This study evaluates the relationship between preoperative cartilage quality, measured by T2 mapping, and patient-reported outcomes following labral tear treatment. We retrospectively reviewed patients aged 14-50 who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with either labral repair or reconstruction. Preoperative T2 values of femoral, acetabular, and labral tissue were assessed from MRI by blinded reviewers.

: Degenerative processes of the hip joint increasingly affect not only the articular cartilage but also periarticular structures such as the joint capsule and acetabular labrum. This study aimed to investigate the structural and molecular changes occurring in these tissues during advanced hip osteoarthritis. : A combined analysis using immunohistochemistry (IHC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and micro-computed tomography (microCT) was conducted on tissue samples from patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty and from controls with morphologically normal joints.

The hip arthrogram is an invaluable tool in the management of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The pathological findings seen on arthrogram in hips with DDH were first described by Severin and Leveuf in the 1940s. These findings were later shown to correlate with findings at open reduction, and in more recent years, on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies as well.

DDH is far more than just a contributing factor to hip osteoarthritis; it represents a formidable challenge to the health of infants and young children. While historical research has largely focused on the osseous abnormalities associated with DDH, current surgical interventions, though prevalent, often carry significant and unavoidable side effects. To break through these limitations, the study delved into the acetabular labrum, a crucial intra-articular structure that presents abnormalities in DDH patients.

Purpose: Femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI) is a possible mechanism for the development of early osteoarthritis. FAI occurs when there is a conflict between the rim of the acetabulum and the femoral neck, usually due to irregularities of the proximal femur or acetabulum. Our aims were to compare the diagnostic efficacy of computed tomography arthrography (CTA) without traction, CTA with traction, and magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA) for the detection and grading of chondral and labral lesions in patients with a clinically positive impingement test and to determine the correlation between imaging findings and arthroscopic data in patients who had undergone surgery.
