Summary: This study developed a three-dimensional measurement method for assessing acetabular fracture displacement and found that the measurement has good repeatability. The study revealed that the preoperative and postoperative three-dimensional gap area are associated with the risk of conversion to total hip arthroplasty.

Summary: Periprosthetic acetabular fractures are rare but potentially serious complications of total hip arthroplasty. There is a lack of literature on these fractures compared to periprosthetic femoral fractures after total hip arthroplasty. This article provides an up-to-date review of the epidemiology, risk factors, diagnostic challenges, classifications, and management strategies for periprosthetic acetabular fractures after total hip arthroplasty.

Summary: This study investigates whether acetabular dysplasia is a significant contributing factor to dislocation following hemiarthroplasty and whether it should affect patient selection for this treatment option. The results suggest that patients with acetabular dysplasia are more prone to dislocation, and special consideration should be taken in the preoperative planning for these patients.

Summary: A retrospective review found that total hip arthroplasty (THA) for acute acetabular fractures carries a high risk of revision and major complications. Female patients are more likely to experience revision failure and complications in THA treatment. Restricting the use of THA for acute acetabular fractures is recommended, and further research is needed to investigate the influence of female patients and fracture characteristics on the risks of revision and complications.

Summary: This study demonstrates that tear location can be reliably quantified on MRI by assessing distal and proximal remnant lengths. A proximal quarter tear of the ACL was found to have a positive predictive value for repairability of 94%. Older age was correlated with more proximal tear location, but tear location showed no correlation with gender, BMI, or timing of surgery.

Summary: Surgical patients with peri-operative or recent SARS-CoV-2 infection are at increased risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism compared to those without a history of SARS-CoV-2. However, the optimal prophylaxis and treatment for venous thromboembolism in this patient population remains unknown. Venous thromboembolism is independently associated with 30-day mortality.

Summary: This systematic review with meta-analysis found that delaying rotator cuff surgery for 3 to 6 months did not lead to higher retear rates or inferior patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) as compared with undergoing earlier surgery. However, delaying surgery for >= 1 year clearly resulted in higher retear rates after rotator cuff repair. Larger prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: Combined injury of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a common knee injury pattern. The optimal treatment for grade III MCL injuries, especially when combined with ACL injury, is still debated. Delayed treatment of ACL-MCL injuries has disadvantages, including incomplete MCL healing, prolonged rehabilitation period, and increased risk of intra-articular damage. Simultaneous surgical treatment of both ligaments has the potential to avoid these shortcomings. This article reviews the evolution of treatment for ACL-MCL injuries and discusses the current treatment algorithm, its shortcomings, potential advantages of acute simultaneous treatment, and the available literature.

Summary: In the past decade, there have been various techniques proposed for preserving the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), resulting in a resurgence of selective arthroscopic ACL preservation. These techniques involve different methods of suturing, fixation, and augmentation, but lack consideration for important anatomical and biomechanical properties. The aim of this technique is to anatomically reapproximate the anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) bundles of the ACL to their respective femoral footprints, while also performing a PL compression stitch to increase ligament-bone contact area and recreate the anatomic vectors of the native bundles. This minimally invasive procedure, which does not involve graft harvesting or tunnel drilling, has shown decreased pain levels, earlier return of full range of motion (ROM), and faster rehabilitation, with comparable failure rates to ACL reconstruction.

Summary: Many surgeons facing the challenge of harvesting small hamstring grafts during ACL reconstruction can consider several options, such as using contralateral hamstring tendons, reinforcing the ACL graft with allografts, utilizing a bone-patellar tendon-bone or quadriceps graft, or adding an anterolateral ligament reconstruction or lateral extra-articular tenodesis. Recent studies indicate that the presence of a lateral extra-articular procedure might be more crucial than the thickness of the isolated ACL graft, offering reassuring news. Current evidence suggests that both anterolateral ligament reconstruction and modified Lemaire tenodesis have similar biomechanical and clinical outcomes, providing potential solutions for small-diameter hamstring ACL autografts.

Summary: Fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) are increasingly common as the population ages. While most FFPs are treated conservatively, physicians should be alert to the potential for fracture progression and the development of unstable pelvic ring fractures. Increased pain or mobility difficulties may indicate the need for invasive treatment.
