Editorial Commentary: Evaluate for the Beighton Score and Additional Radiographic Signs of Instability Prior to Proceeding With Hip Arthroscopy in Patients With Combined Borderline Hip Dysplasia and Excessive Femoral Anteversion

Noninterportal capsulotomy of hip arthroscopy showed improved outcomes in borderline hip dysplasia: A retrospective study with minimum 2‐year follow‐up

“…It is necessary, therefore, to perform a preoperative evaluation to find candidates with BHD suitable for an arthroscopic approach. Explicitly defining the causes of symptoms in BHD patients, including mechanical lesions and functional hip instability, is crucial in the preoperative evaluation [7]. Hip arthroscopy is suitable for mechanical lesions such as labral tears and cam impingements, while the current arthroscopic technology cannot ameliorate the symptoms caused by osseous hip instability [7].…”

Mechanical effect of changed femoral neck ante-version angles on the stability of an intertrochanteric fracture fixed with PFNA: A finite element analysis

“…Published studies reported that abnormal femoral version have been associated with lower limb dysfunctions of patellar instability, abnormal gait mechanics, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), hip dysplasia and OA of the knee and hip [ 10 , 15 ]. Many studies reported the influence of abnormal femoral version on the FAI, and hip arthroscopy [ 16 , 17 ], while little information was found for the changed femoral version after PFNA in the intertrochanteric fracture. We aimed to evaluate the effects of abnormal femoral neck ante-version on the biomechanical stability of bone-implant complex using the method of finite element analysis (FEA).…”
