Mashup Score: 11
Several graft choices have been described for surgeons performing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Bone–patellar tendon–bone autograft has been referred to as the gold standard with which other grafts are compared. Hamstring autograft has been widely used when a soft-tissue graft is desired, such as when physes are open with significant growth remaining, but with greater revision rate than bone–patella tendon–bone in young athletes. Allograft tissue is discouraged in younger patients due to increased re-rupture rate.

Traumatic anterior shoulder dislocations can cause a myriad of injuries, each with their own unique set of challenges with respect to surgical management. The debate of whether open or arthroscopic management is the superior approach is one that predates most currently practicing orthopaedic surgeons yet remains one of the most actively researched areas of orthopaedics. Current trends favor arthroscopic management for anterior instability secondary to a Bankart lesion in patients without other risk factors for instability, such as critical glenoid bone loss.

Mashup Score: 25Computer-Assisted Arthroscopic Cam Resection - 13 day(s) ago
Determining the appropriate femoral cam resection during hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome is both critical for the patient and challenging for the surgeon. Incomplete bone resection is a leading cause of failed hip arthroscopy, whereas over-resection may increase the risk of femoral neck fracture. The alpha angle is a validated 2-dimensional radiographic measurement used to both diagnose femoroacetabular impingement syndrome preoperatively and to determine resection adequacy postoperatively.

At least 3 of 4 athletes will not only return to sport after hip arthroscopy but also maintain durability in their sport regardless of high-impact activity. Hoping our injured athletes can return to sport after their injury would prove an insufficient answer to our injured patients’ expectations of a mathematically precise answer. As it turns out, Mathematical Hope exists as a term to describe the way we calculate probability. Because scientific research has shed light on the great outcomes that can be obtained from the arthroscopic treatment of a joint, we are now able to witness amazing comeback stories in the news and incredible outcomes from short- to long-term in scientific journals.

"With results from a mean 10-year follow-up, this study shows remarkably durable results...we can express this—not with empirical hope but with mathematical certainty: at least 3 of every 4 athletes will return to their sport—and remain active long term." https://t.co/5s5ze13VZV https://t.co/UpLz4YFr0f
