Mashup Score: 2
To evaluate minimum 2-year gluteus medius and/or minimus repair clinical success rates stratified by the 3-grade magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)–based classification (MRI grade) and to evaluate clinical success rates by the surgical approach used at each MRI grade and by the Goutallier-Fuchs (GF) classification.

We read with great interest the recent editorial commentary by Karlsson and Snaebjörnsson1 in Arthroscopy titled “Editorial Commentary: Primary Repair of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Shows Positive Mid-term Outcomes When Properly Indicated,” in which the authors support the notion that careful patient selection for arthroscopic primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair is critical to achieve positive mid-term outcomes. Specifically, they believe that primary repair of the ACL can be a viable option for younger patients with acute proximal injuries and sufficient volume of the torn ACL.

The patellofemoral (PF) joint is a challenging location to repair cartilage. Although both osteochondral allograft transplantation (OCA) and autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) are established as standard therapies for cartilage repair, most treatment algorithms continue to favor ACI for the PF joint, which shows a high rate of success. Today, however, OCA is a treatment of choice to revise prior failed PF cartilage repair. The positive outcomes in this setting encourage indicating OCA for select primary cartilage repair patients, namely those with defects that are uncontained or osteochondral.

Mashup Score: 10Editorial Commentary: In Situ Biceps Tenodesis Is Useful in the Treatment of Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears - 1 month(s) ago
For irreparable posterior superior rotator cuff tears (IPSRCTs), techniques other than reverse shoulder arthroplasty and tendon transfer are still under research; among these, reusing the long head of the biceps (LHB) is noteworthy. Various techniques of LHB reuse have been reported and can be divided into 3 biomechanical categories: restoration of the force chain of the rotator cuff, augmentation of the superior capsule, and combined force-chain restoration and superior capsule augmentation, among which in situ biceps tenodesis may be the simplest.

Mashup Score: 8Single-Dose Intravenous Tranexamic Acid Does Not Increase Venous Thromboembolic Rate or Complication Rate During Hip Arthroscopy - 1 month(s) ago
To determine whether tranexamic acid (TXA) is safe to administer preoperatively in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy by comparing the venous thromboembolic rate and complication rate between patients who did and did not receive TXA preoperatively.

Mashup Score: 13Why Do You Focus on the Acetabular Labral Tear? You Can’t See the Forest for the Trees - 1 month(s) ago
The advent of higher-quality imaging has brought increased attention to the understanding and implications of commonly observed hip morphology and pathology. Many patients and even physicians like to focus on the presence of an acetabular labral tear when one is present on magnetic resonance imaging, despite the limitations of magnetic resonance imaging in identifying labral tears. Furthermore, recent studies have shown normal variations of the acetabular labrum, as well as a high prevalence of labral tears in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.

Mashup Score: 41
To create a metric for evaluating the degree of laterality of the patella’s entry into the trochlea, the entry point–trochlear groove (EP-TG) angle, and to evaluate if this laterality is associated with recurrent patella instability.
