RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Therapy of pubic related groin pain via minimally invasive symphysioplasty. INDICATIONS: Therapy of refractory pubic related groin pain based on osteitis pubis. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Groin pain from causes other than pubic related groin pain. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: After a minimally invasive approach, an incision in the anterior capsule is made while protecting the dorsal capsule parts and the arcuate pubic ligament. The symphysis end plates are remodeled arthroscopically assisted using a surgical burr. The newly created pubic symphysis joint is filled with autogenous fibrin to support the formation of a new discus interpubicus. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Partial weight-bearing for 4 weeks with 20â¯kg using crutches is recommended. During the first 4 weeks the range of motion should be restricted. RESULTS: Since 2010, 10 athletes (7 men, 3 women; average age 34.1⯱ 7.8 (23-47) years) have undergone arthroscopically assisted minimally invasive symphysioplasty and treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. The average follow-up time was 5.1 (2-9) years. All patients returned to their sport level. The mean preoperative Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS) of 64.4⯱ 15.1 (32.1-86.5) points improved to a mean postoperative NAHS of 91.4⯱ 9.8 (62.4-98.75) points (pâ¯< 0.0001). The average patient satisfaction (scale 0 to 10; 10 highest satisfaction) was 9.8⯱ 0.4 (9-10).

This description shows the histological findings of a peroneus brevis tendon allograft used for labral reconstruction, implanted 8 weeks before being retrieved due to a postoperative complication unrelated to the graft. As far as we have knowledge this is the first description about revascularization of an allograft used for hip labral reconstruction. The histological report of the removed peroneus brevis tendon allograft shows evidence of vascular ingrowth represented by small vessels with a thin muscular wall in all layers of the graft and cellular migration mainly represented by mature fibroblasts.
RESUMEN
Many of the described labral-reconstruction procedures are purely arthroscopic. This approach only allows segmentary reconstructions. For more extensive reconstructions, surgical dislocation of the hip still represents the more suitable approach. We present an arthroscopy-assisted procedure combined with an anterior mini-open approach, which could be considered for reconstruction of nonrepairable labral lesions located in the posterior aspect of the acetabulum and massive reconstructions in cases of global-pincer femoroacetabular impingement and protrusio acetabuli. Our technique saves the morbidity that might be related to the surgical dislocation of the hip and incorporates a peroneus brevis tendon allograft. This option may restore the anatomy and labral function without morbidity at the donor site, as well as remove graft length restrictions during massive reconstructions.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has been proposed as a possible cause of early osteoarthritis of the hip. The treatment of this condition and its related lesions can be performed by 3 methods: surgical dislocation of the hip; pure arthroscopic; and anterior mini-open technique with or without arthroscopic assistance. METHODS: We describe the anterior mini-open technique and report our experience over the last decade in the treatment of FAI and different associated pathologies of the hip. RESULTS: This technique was found to be safe and reliable, allowing tissue preservation and providing a clinical improvement similar to the purely arthroscopic-treated patient, even in complex cases. DISCUSSIONS: According to our experience there are several presentations of FAI and associated hip conditions, where other authors advocate surgical dislocation, which can be conducted through a mini-open approach when increased surgical skills are reached. Moreover, this technique was found to be useful as an additional tool to consider, even for surgeons involved in the arthroscopic learning curve.

BACKGROUND: Many labral tears are nonrepairable. For these cases, labral reconstruction procedures may be considered in order to restore the joint fluid seal and prolong hip longevity. AIMS: The aim of this study was to describe the clinical and functional outcomes of a series of cases with nonrepairable labral tears that underwent labral reconstruction with tendon allografts. The hypothesis was that labral reconstruction would provide good clinical outcomes. METHOD: A cohort of 20 patients with nonrepairable labral tears, which underwent to labral grafting mainly by means of arthroscopic assisted anterior mini-open approach, were included in this study. The study period was comprised between July 2008 and September 2013. RESULTS: DCS-score resulted in 17 satisfactory results, whereas Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS) resulted in mean improvement of 39 points. 1 retrieved allograft demonstrated 8 weeks after implantation new whole revascularisation. CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that labral reconstruction with tendon allograft provides relief of painful symptoms, and represents a reliable alternative for patients with nonrepairable labral tears that are not yet candidates for a joint replacement procedure.

BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment of femoroacetabular impingement is becoming accepted worldwide, owing to improvements in clinical results and quality of life. In addition to treatment by surgical dislocation or arthroscopy, arthroscopic assisted mini-open approach was postulated to treat this pathology. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze early results of the first consecutive 72 cases of femoroacetabular impingement treated using the arthroscopic assisted mini-open approach in two different centers by two surgeons trained by a senior surgeon experienced in the technique. METHODS: Seventy-two consecutive cases of femoroacetabular impingement were operated in arthroscopic assisted mini-open approach technique in two different centers. After a mean follow-up time of 15 months (range 6-24 months), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index, Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and University of California, Los Angeles activity score, alpha angle and Wiberg angle were obtained. RESULTS: In both centers, all three scores showed significantly better results at follow-up time than preoperatively. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index increased from 64.3 to 91.4 (A) and from 68.1 to 89 (B). The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score increased from 59.5 to 94.4 (A) and from 62.1 to 93.8 (B). The University of California, Los Angeles activity score increased from 5.2 to 8.1 (A) and from 5.3 to 8.4 (B). The alpha angle and the Wiberg angle were significantly reduced after osteoplasty. The overall complication rate was low. CONCLUSIONS: Early results of this study show a good clinical and radiological outcome; therefore, the arthroscopic assisted mini-open approach can be used as an alternative in treating femoroacetabular impingement.

In the previous decade, metal-on-metal hip resurfacing has been considered an attractive option and theoretically advantageous over conventional total hip arthroplasty, especially in young active patients. Different authors have reported favourable mid-term clinical and functional results with acceptable survival rates. Proper indication and planning, as accurate technical execution have been advocated to be crucial elements for success.Concerns regarding serum metal ion levels and possible clinical implications have led in the last years to a decline in the use of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing and metal-on-metal bearings in general.The aim of this study is to present the results of our first 486 cases of hybrid hip resurfacing arthroplasties with a second generation cementing technique, and to describe our current restricted indication of this type of prosthesis, in the light of recent findings in the literature about the possible complications related to metallosis or improper patient selection. Global survivorship of our series was 97.9% at a mean follow-up of 7.2 years.In the second season of our experience the indication is restrictive. The candidate for a resurfacing hip replacement is a young and active male patient, with good bone quality, that has been made aware of the risks and benefits of this type of prosthesis.

We describe our modified anterior mini-invasive technique and results obtained in our first consecutive 117 cases in 105 patients. To assess the influence of preoperative Tönnis degenerative stage, cases were divided into group A (Tönnis 0, 32 hips), B (Tönnis 1, 61 hips), and C (Tönnis 2, 24 hips). The clinical score Dexeus combined score (DCS) was used preoperatively, 3 months, 6 months, and every year after operation. At 3-month follow-up, impingement test results improved significantly in 30 hips of group A (94%; p<0.001) and in 58 of group B (95%; p<0.001), whereas in group C, improvement was observed in only 14 cases (58%; p>0.05). No statistical difference was observed at 3-year visit in all groups. Merle d'Aubigné-Postel and WOMAC scores improved significantly in group A (p<0.001) and B (p<0.001) after 1 year and remained unchanged at subsequent yearly follow-ups. For group C, clinical outcomes scores did not show any significant improvement overall (p>0.05). We concluded that anterior mini-invasive technique is an effective method to treat femoroacetabular impingement, and results are highly influenced by preoperative degenerative state, especially in stage Tönnis 2. Therefore, it seems to be a reasonable early surgical treatment in symptomatic patients.
