09). Radiologic evaluation of the acetabular labrum distinctly differed from arthroscopic findings. Reliable statements concerning the cartilage status were not possible due to the great difference in quality of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs). 11-deoxojervine The results of this study revealed an arthroscopically proven prevalence of co-pathologies in >95% of patients with ONFH. Cam-type deformity, labral anomalies and chondral defects were the most frequent. Comparison of arthroscopic and radiologic findings showed coherent results regarding cam-deformity but revealed distinct difficulties in the assessment of the labral and chondral status emphasizing the need for standardization of preoperative radiodiagnostics. Moreover, it still has to be evaluated whether combined CD and arthroscopy can improve on the overall outcomes achieved by performance of CD only.To determine interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities of the combination of classification systems, including the Beck and acetabular labral articular disruption (ALAD) systems for transition zone cartilage, the Outerbridge system for acetabular and femoral head cartilage, and the Beck system for labral tears. Additionally, we sought to determine interobserver and intraobserver agreements in the location of injury to labrum and cartilage. Three fellowship trained surgeons reviewed 30 standardized videos of the central compartment with one surgeon re-evaluating the videos. Labral pathology, transition zone cartilage and acetabular cartilage were classified using the Beck, Beck and ALAD systems, and Outerbridge system, respectively. The location of labral tears and transition zone cartilage injury was assessed using a clock face system, and acetabular cartilage injury using a five-zone system. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities are reported as Gwet's agreement coefficients. Interobserver and intraobserer agreement. Interobserver agreement on location of labral tears was highest in the region where most tears occur and became lower at the anterior and posterior extents of this region. The available classification systems can be used for documentation regarding intra-articular pathology. However, continued development of a concise and highly reproducible classification system would improve communication.The purpose of this study was to systematically review the methodology, response rate and quality of survey studies related to femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. A search was conducted on three databases (PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE) for relevant studies from database inception to 27 January 2020. Data extracted included study and survey characteristics, as well as response rates. The quality of the included studies was also assessed using a previously published quality assessment tool. Data were analysed with means, ranges, standard deviations, 95% confidence intervals and bivariate analysis. Eleven studies (13 surveys) were included in this review out of a total of 1608 initial titles found. Surveys were most often administered via the Internet (72%) to orthopaedic surgeons (54%). The mean response rate was 70.4%. The mean quality score was moderate 13.3/24 (SD ±4.3). The criterion that most often scored high was 'clearly defined purpose and objectives' (11/11). The most common survey topic investigated surgeons' knowledge regarding FAI diagnosis and management (n = 7). In addition, bivariate analysis between quality score and response rate showed no significant correlation (Spearman's rho = -0.090, P = 0.85). Overall, survey studies related to FAI syndrome most often use Internet-based methods to administer surveys. The most common target audience is orthopaedic surgeons. The topics of the surveys most often revolve around orthopaedic surgeons' knowledge and opinions relating to the diagnosis and management of FAI syndrome. The response rate is high in patient surveys and lower in larger surgeon surveys. Overall, the studies are of moderate quality.Head preserving modalities in avascular necrosis (AVN) hip are variably effective in early stages, and further options that could prevent head distortion and osteoarthritis are needed. Core decompression (CD) is the most commonly used surgery in the early stages of osteonecrosis with variable rates of success. The present review aimed to determine the effectiveness of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) or their combination with CD in early stages of AVN hip, prior to collapse of femoral head. Additionally, any newer unexplored modalities were also searched for and ascertained. PubMed and SCOPUS databases were searched for relevant articles in English language describing CD with aforementioned orthobiologics. We analysed a total of 20 studies published between 2011 and 2020. There were 6 retrospective and 14 prospective studies. PRP showed improved survival and functional outcomes; however, with only three studies, there is inconclusive evidence for its routine utilization. BMAC enhances the efficacy of CD which can further be increased by culture and expansion of cells or combining it with PRP to stimulate growth. In conclusion, CD with BMAC works more efficiently than CD alone prior to collapse of femoral head in AVN. However, PRP needs more evidence for extensive application. Addition of PRP to BMAC or culturing the latter could further enhance the potency of CD + BMAC combination. Very limited data is available for the efficacy of BMP-7 and the role of intraosseous bisphosphonates should be evaluated for a cheaper and potential alternative.This study aims to present a systematic review and synthesized evidence on the epidemiological factors, diagnostic methods and treatment options available for this phenomenon. A multi-database search (OVID Medline, EMBASE and PubMed) was performed according to PRISMA guidelines on 18 June 2019. All studies of any study design discussing on the epidemiological factors, diagnostic methods, classification systems and treatment options of the wave sign were included. The Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment tool was used to appraise articles. No quantitative analysis could be performed due to heterogeneous data reported; 11 studies with a total of 501 patients with the wave sign were included. Three studies examined risk factors for wave sign and concluded that cam lesions were most common. Other risk factors include alpha angle >65° (OR=4.00, 95% CI 1.26-12.71, P=0.02), male gender (OR 2.24, 95% CI 1.09-4.62, P=0.03) and older age (OR=1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.07, P=0.03). Increased acetabular coverage in setting of concurrent cam lesions may be a protective factor.
