CASE: We present a fifteen-year-old adolescent boy with anterior knee pain and a palpable tender swelling in the suprapatellar region with painful terminal extension. Imaging was suggestive of a vascular lesion in the suprapatellar fat pad. He underwent arthroscopic debridement and postoperatively regained his terminal extension. CONCLUSION: Suprapatellar fat pad impingement can rarely be due to vascular lesions or lipomatous tumors affecting the suprapatellar fat pad...

BACKGROUND: Stiffness after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is debilitating and poorly understood. A heterogenous approach to the treatment is often utilized, including both nonoperative and operative treatment modalities. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of treatments used between stiff and non-stiff TKA groups and their financial impact. METHODS: An observational cohort study was conducted using a large database. A total of 12,942 patients who underwent unilateral primary TKA from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2017, were included...

INTRODUCTION: International joint registries provide high volumes of information in relation to the performance of total knee arthroplasty on a global scale. Distillation of this data can be challenging, particularly with the establishment of more arthroplasty registries on a yearly basis. We therefore aim to present key information from these registries in relation to primary total knee arthroplasty. The specific questions of interest include: Which fixation type is superior in TKA? Does the level of constraint impact on clinical performance? How do partial knee replacements perform in the registries? Does patellar resurfacing lead to superior results? Are there any specific implants which perform particularly well or poorly? METHODS: A comprehensive review of the major English-speaking knee arthroplasty registries across the globe was performed...

Survival analyses are a powerful statistical tool used to analyse data when the outcome of interest involves the time until an event. There is an array of models fit for this goal; however, there are subtle differences in assumptions, as well as a number of pitfalls, that can lead to biased results if researchers are unaware of the subtleties. As larger amounts of data become available, and more survival analyses are published every year, it is important that healthcare professionals understand how to evaluate these models and apply them into their practice...

PURPOSE: Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a known cause of impaired sports performance in athletes and the relationship between FAIS and soccer players has previously been described. Hip arthroscopy is a viable treatment option that can facilitate athletes' return to sport (RTS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the RTS and return to performance (RTP) with objective measurements in high-level soccer players after hip arthroscopy for FAIS. METHOD: Soccer players, with a hip sports activity scale (HSAS) level of 7 or 8 before symptom onset and undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS between 2011 and 2019 were identified in the Gothenburg hip arthroscopic registry...

PURPOSE: It is now well established that the coronal anatomy of the lower limb is highly variable both in non-arthritic subjects and subjects undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Two new classifications were recently described independently, but never compared: functional knee phenotypes classification and coronal plane alignment of the knee (CPAK) classification. The hypothesis of this study was that there was a significant difference between the values of the hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) and the arithmetic hip-knee-ankle angle (aHKA) measures in the same patient at the time of TKA...

BACKGROUND: Assessing patient's risk of infection is fundamental for prevention of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA). The Mayo Prosthetic Joint Infection Risk Score (Mayo Score) is based on data from total hip and knee arthroplasty and has not been validated for application for TAA. METHODS: A total of 405 consecutive TAA cases were followed for 6 months for PJI. Individual patients' Mayo Scores were calculated and analyzed with logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) for predictability for PJI...
