Symptomatic Manifestations of Hip Dysplasia in Young Adults: How do Patients Present Before or After Surgery? Results from a Social Media Cohort
This study aimed to analyse the symptomatic differences of hip dysplasia before or after separate surgical interventions, including pain location and characteristics, severity, patient-reported outcomes, and a body pain diagram. A REDCap-based survey was distributed through social media from October 2023 to May 2024 and targeted individuals with current or past hip pain.
Anterior Hip Anatomy for the Open Hip Preservation Surgeon
Supine, anterior-based hip surgery has been popularized over the last few decades, not just for arthroplasty but also for hip preservation indications. Hip surgeons have employed anterior approaches to safely perform periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), femoral osteochondroplasty, and open reduction of femoral neck fractures while minimizing the risk of disrupting blood supply to the femoral head, often in a muscle-sparing manner.

Acute total hip arthroplasty for anterior hip fracture dislocation: a case report
Hip fracture–dislocations accompanied by femoral head or acetabular fractures remain challenging, and the optimal treatment strategy is still controversial. Anterior hip fracture–dislocations are particularly rare, and reports describing acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) for this injury pattern are limited. We report the case of a 74-year-old active woman who sustained an anterior hip fracture–dislocation with femoral head and acetabular anterior wall fractures after a low-energy fall.

Surgical management techniques for avascular necrosis of the femoral head: a systematic review
Early surgical intervention for avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head can preserve the hip joint and delay the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of various surgical modalities to treat femoral head AVN as assessed by THA-free survivorship, radiographic failure, and patient reported outcomes measures (PROMs).
11 Common Hip Pain and Injuries in Athletes
Muscle strain, or pulled muscle, occurs when a muscle is overstretched or torn. In athletes, this type of injury is common in the hip and groin area due to fatigue, overuse, or the improper use of a muscle. The failure to warm up before exercise also contributes to the problem.
