Disease-specific outcomes may be more sensitive to change in patellofemoral instability
Disease-specific patient-reported outcome instruments are more sensitive to change vs. region-specific instruments in assessing adolescent patellofemoral instability cases, according to data presented here.
Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients Under 30 Years Who Have Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: Mean Follow-Up of More than 120 Months
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) primarily affects young adults, leading to femoral head collapse and secondary osteoarthritis. Treatments include joint-preserving surgery, which has been performed preferentially, especially for young adults, and joint arthroplasty, i.e., total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although advancements in implant materials have markedly improved performance, there are few data regarding implant survival and clinical outcomes in younger patients. This study aimed to assess long-term implant survival of more than 120 months and clinical outcomes in young ONFH patients undergoing primary THA.
Quadriceps and hamstring muscles strength differences in adolescent and adult recreational athletes 6 months after autograft bone-patellar-tendon-bone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A retrospective study
Knee muscle strength recovery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is crucial for a safe return to sport (RTS) but it is poorly described in the adolescent population. Therefore, we compared the knee muscle strength at 6 months post-surgery in adults and adolescents. We hypothesized a greater muscular strength in adolescents 6 months after ACLR.
10 types of exercise to try with arthritis of the knee
Exercises for knee arthritis, such as leg lifts, can strengthen the muscles around the knee joint and help a person stay active. Swimming and elliptical training are also suitable options.
Robotic-assisted THA may reduce opioid requirements vs. manual, computer-assisted THA
Robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty may be associated with reduced opioid consumption during postoperative hospitalization vs. both manual and computer-assisted total hip arthroplasty, according to presented results.
