Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of Cam-Type Femoroacetabular Impingement Morphology in Asymptomatic Volunteers

TL;DR: The prevalence of cam-type femoroacetabular impingement deformity is higher in men as well as in individuals with decreased internal rotation, and Defining what represents a normal head-neck contour is important for establishing treatment strategies in patients presenting with prearthritic hip pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validity of the Alpha Angle Measurement on Plain Radiographs in the Evaluation of Cam-type Femoroacetabular Impingement

TL;DR: These observations validate the clinical use of the Dunn view in the evaluation of the femoral head-neck contour in cam-type femoroacetabular impingement and validate the accuracy and reproducibility of plain radiography in the diagnosis of cam- type deformity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of MRI Alpha Angle Measurement Planes in Femoroacetabular Impingement

TL;DR: Patients with clinically suspected FAI may have a substantial contour abnormality that can be underestimated or missed if only oblique axial plane images are reviewed, and radial plane imaging should be considered in the MRI investigation of FAI.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing single-row with double-row fixation in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

TL;DR: No significant differences in functional or quality-of-life outcomes were identified between single-row and double-row fixation techniques and a smaller initial tear size and a double-rows fixation technique were associated with higher healing rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of lesser tuberosity osteotomy to subscapularis peel in shoulder arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: No significant differences in the primary or secondary outcomes of function were identified between the lesser tuberosity osteotomy group and the subscapularis peel group, and this trial does not demonstrate any clear advantage of one subscAPularis treatment technique over the other.
