Does the Choice of Acellular Scaffold and Augmentation With Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate Affect Short-term Outcomes in Cartilage Repair? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Zachariah Gene Wing Ow et al.

Summary: Matrix-induced chondrogenesis is a promising treatment for critical-size cartilage lesions, but the choice of acellular scaffold matrix is still debated. This study found that multilayered bioscaffolds were most effective in improving pain and function, while gel-based scaffolds had a lower risk of incomplete defect filling. Furthermore, the addition of concentrated bone marrow aspirate improved clinical scores and defect filling. However, more long-term evidence is needed to evaluate these effects.

Direct anterior approach versus posterolateral approach for total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in elderly patients: a meta-analysis and systematic review

Zhiqiang Jin et al.

Summary: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the postoperative clinical outcomes of elderly patients who underwent the direct anterior approach (DAA) versus those who received the posterolateral approach (PLA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of femoral neck fractures. The results showed that DAA offers a quicker functional recovery and is less invasive with an earlier return to daily activities in older THA patients compared to PLA. However, DAA was found to be associated with a high incidence of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury and a low incidence of postoperative dislocation.

Comparing direct anterior approach versus posterior approach or lateral approach in total hip arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis

James Jia Ming Ang et al.

Summary: This meta-analysis compares the functional outcomes, peri-operative parameters, and complications of the direct anterior approach (DAA) versus the posterior approach (PA) or lateral approach (LA) in THA. The results show that DAA has a longer operative time but a shorter length of stay compared to PA. Additionally, DAA has better functional outcomes than PA at 6 weeks and better outcomes than LA at 12 weeks. The choice of THA approach should be guided by surgeon experience, preference, and patient factors.

Achieving Precise Cup Positioning in Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Narrative Review

Laura Elisa Streck et al.

Summary: Malpositioned implants in total hip arthroplasty can result in complications, making precise cup positioning crucial. However, there are often significant deviations between targeted and achieved cup positions, even in experienced surgeons. Various methods, such as freehand positioning, C-arm fluoroscopy, imageless navigation, and robotic-assisted surgery, aim to improve accuracy. However, the literature and expert opinions on these methods are controversial. This article provides an overview of different methods and systems, discussing their advantages, pitfalls, and potential future developments.

Intraoperative Imaging in Total Hip Arthroplasty Is Cost-Effective Regardless of Surgical Approach

Gregory J. Kirchner et al.

Summary: This study examines the cost-effectiveness of intraoperative imaging in total hip arthroplasty, showing the relationship between the application of imaging and cost-effectiveness under different costs and revision rates. The study suggests that only a small number of revision surgeries need to be prevented to achieve cost-effectiveness with intraoperative imaging.

Open Versus Endoscopic Surgical Treatment of Posterior Ankle Impingement: A Meta-analysis

Ruben Zwiers et al.

Summary: A systematic review and meta-analysis of 32 studies found no significant difference in functional outcome, patient satisfaction, and return to preinjury activity level between endoscopic and open surgical techniques for post-ankle impingement treatment. However, endoscopic treatment showed a significantly lower rate of minor complications when poor-quality studies were excluded.

Defining the Learning Curve of Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty After Fellowship-specific Training

Robert R. Burnham et al.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the learning curve associated with performing direct anterior THA immediately after fellowship training. The results showed a decrease in surgical complications after approximately 40 cases and a decrease in medical complications at 25 to 50 cases. However, no learning curve was observed for surgical time and blood loss.

Total Knee Arthroplasty in Hemophilia: Survivorship and OutcomesdA Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Christopher Fenelon et al.

Summary: TKR in PWHs is a successful procedure improving function, reducing pain, and improving range of motion. PWHs undergo TKR at a younger age and have a higher risk of complications, though contemporary treatment has reduced these risks. PWHs can expect similar survivorship to the general population.

Summary: This study suggests that the use of patient-specific instrumentation in total hip arthroplasty can improve acetabular component positioning and postoperative functional outcomes without increasing intraoperative time or blood loss compared to standard instrumentation.

Perioperative Systemic Dexamethasone Reduces Length of Stay in Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Johnathan R. Lex et al.

Summary: Perioperative systemic corticosteroids can reduce hospital length of stay, alleviate postoperative pain, and lower the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting following unilateral total knee and hip arthroplasty. Higher doses of corticosteroids are associated with greater reduction in pain and nausea and repeat dosing may further shorten hospital stay, although they may increase blood glucose levels.

The superiority of navigation and robotics in hip arthroplasty: fact or myth?

Markus Weber et al.

Summary: Computer-assisted surgery is a relatively novel treatment option in total hip arthroplasty, supported by technological progress. Navigation and robotics improve precision and biomechanical restoration, but the target area and cost effectiveness are still debated. Further research is needed to evaluate the potential benefits and outcomes of this technology.
