Medial pivot (MP) designs are growing in popularity. They provide increased sagittal plane stability and theoretically replicate some aspects of native joint kinematics, which may improve total knee arthroplasty outcomes.

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the highest volume elective procedures done nationwide. Elective surgery was suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The utilization trends, comparison of patient demographics, and postoperative outcomes in 2020 have yet to be evaluated substantially. We c...

Patients experience significant clinical benefit in both hips after staged bilateral hip arthroscopy. Results from the initial hip arthroscopy at either 1- or 2- year follow-up can be used to predict outcomes on the contralateral side, however there is a higher degree of predictive value using 2-yea...

This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the radiographical features of combination of the acetabular coverage and the femoral head-neck shape and the occurrence of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).

Cervical stenosis (CS) is the medical term for the narrowing of the spinal canal in the cervical or  neck region of the spine. In CS, the upper part ...
