This study describes the variation in the annual volumes of revision hip arthroplasty (RHA) undertaken by consultant surgeons nationally, and the rate of accrual of RHA and corresponding primary hip arthroplasty (PHA) volume for new consultants entering practice. National Joint Registry (NJR) data for England, Wales, Northern Ireland, and the Isle of Man were received for 84,816 RHAs and 818,979 PHAs recorded between April 2011 and December 2019. RHA data comprised all revision procedures, including first-time revisions of PHA and any subsequent re-revisions recorded in public and private healthcare organizations. Annual procedure volumes undertaken by the responsible consultant surgeon in the 12 months prior to every index procedure were determined. We identified a cohort of ‘new’ HA consultants who commenced practice from 2012 and describe their rate of accrual of PHA and RHA experience.Aims
Methods
Hip arthroscopy (HA) has become the treatment of choice for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). However, less favourable outcomes following arthroscopic surgery are expected in patients with severe chondral lesions. The aim of this study was to assess the outcomes of HA in patients with FAI and associated chondral lesions, classified according to the Outerbridge system. A systematic search was performed on four databases. Studies which involved HA as the primary management of FAI and reported on chondral lesions as classified according to the Outerbridge classification were included. The study was registered on PROSPERO. Demographic data, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), complications, and rates of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were collected.Aims
Methods
This paper aims to review the evidence for patient-related factors associated with less favourable outcomes following hip arthroscopy. Literature reporting on preoperative patient-related risk factors and outcomes following hip arthroscopy were systematically identified from a computer-assisted literature search of Pubmed (Medline), Embase, and Cochrane Library using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and a scoping review.Aims
Methods
The aim of this study was to assess the current evidence relating
to the benefits of virtual reality (VR) simulation in orthopaedic
surgical training, and to identify areas of future research. A literature search using the MEDLINE, Embase, and Google Scholar
databases was performed. The results’ titles, abstracts, and references
were examined for relevance.Aims
Materials and Methods
The number of patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery of the
hip has increased significantly during the past decade. It has now
become an established technique for the treatment of many intra-
and extra-articular conditions affecting the hip. However, it has
a steep learning curve and is not without the risk of complications.
The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence
of complications during and following this procedure. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses
guidelines were used in designing this study. Two reviewers systematically
searched the literature for complications related to arthroscopy
of the hip. The research question and eligibility criteria were
established Aims
Materials and Methods
Vascular injuries during total hip arthroplasty
(THA) are rare but when they occur, have serious consequences. These have
traditionally been managed with open exploration and repair, but
more recently there has been a trend towards percutaneous endovascular
management. We performed a systematic review of the literature to assess
if this change in trend has led to an improvement in the overall
reported rates of morbidity and mortality during the last 22 years
in comparison with the reviews of the literature published previously. We found a total of 61 articles describing 138 vascular injuries
in 124 patients. Injuries because of a laceration were the most
prevalent (n = 51, 44%) and the most common presenting feature,
when recorded, was bleeding (n = 41, 53.3%). Delay in diagnosis
was associated with the type of vascular lesion (p <
0.001) and
the clinical presentation (p = 0.002). Open exploration and repair was the most common form of management,
however percutaneous endovascular intervention was used in one third
of the injuries and more constantly during the last 13 years. The main overall reported complications included death (n = 9,
7.3%), amputation (n = 2, 1.6%), and persistent ischaemia (n = 9,
7.3%). When compared with previous reviews there was a similar rate
of mortality but lower rates of amputation and permanent disability,
especially in patients managed by endovascular strategies. Cite this article:
The FRCS (Tr &
Orth) examination has three components: MCQs, Vivas and
Clinical Examination. The Vivas are further divided into four sections
comprising Basic Science, Adult Pathology, Hands and Children’s
Orthopaedics and Trauma. The Clinical Examination section is divided into Upper
and Lower limb cases. The aim of this section in the Journal is to focus
specifically on the trainees preparing for the exam and to cater to all the
sections of the exam. The vision is to complete the cycle of all relevant exam
topics (as per the syllabus) in four years.
