To report mid-term outcomes of patients who underwent endoscopic gluteus medius (GM) repair with arthroscopic labral treatment and to compare them with a control cohort of patients who underwent arthroscopic labral treatment without an endoscopic GM repair. ⋯ III, retrospective comparative study.

Modification of the Patte rotator cuff tear classification by using 2 coronal cuts to judge severity of retraction can help differentiate repairable from irreparable rotator cuff tears and allow for more accurate tear pattern identification.
-
(1) To determine the area of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) insertion sites on the lateral wall of the medial femoral condyle (LWMFC) that demonstrates the least amount of length change through full range of motion (ROM) and (2) to identify a range of flexion that would be favorable for graft tensioning for single-bundle (SB) and double-bundle (DB) PCL reconstruction. ⋯ Surgeons can apply the results of this investigation to surgical planning in PCLR to optimize isometry, which may ultimately reduce graft strain and the risk of graft failure. Additionally, DB PCLR demonstrated superiority compared with SB PCLR regarding graft isometry, as significant laxity was encountered at lower ranges of flexion in SB PCLRs. Fixation of the ALB at 90° flexion should be performed to avoid overconstraint in knee extension.
-
(1) To report minimum 2-year patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores of primary circumferential acetabular labral reconstruction using anterior tibialis allograft and the knotless pull-through technique in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and irreparable labral tears and (2) to compare these PROs with a matched-pair primary labral repair group. ⋯ Level III, case-control study.
-
(1) To determine patient factors associated with prolonged opioid use following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and (2) to evaluate the influence of preoperative opioid use on patient-reported outcomes. ⋯ Level III, Retrospective Cohort Study.
