In this issue of Clinics in Sports Medicine, guest editors Drs. Mario Hevesi and Shane J. Nho bring their considerable expertise to the topic of New Frontiers in Hip Arthroscopy. As our understanding of hip biomechanics and pathology continues to evolve, hip arthroscopy remains at the forefront of innovative treatments, offering less invasive options and promoting better long-term joint health. In this issue, top experts discuss accessory portals, addressing the everted labrum, hip capsular reconstruction, and much more.

Hip pathology and nonarthritic hip conditions have only recently been recognized as a cause of hip pain. In 2003, Ganz, Leunig and colleagues described the concept of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) as a cause of hip pain and a mechanism for end-stage hip osteoarthritis.  Ganz et al. also postulated that 70-90% of hip osteoarthritis is likely due to abnormal hip mechanics related to FAI, dysplasia, or other hip deformities. Over the past ten years, the treatment of these non-arthritic hip pathologies has grown dramatically, and has been estimated to grow by 15% each year. It is the largest segment of grown in sports medicine and orthopedics as a whole. However, no definitive reference yet exists on hip arthroscopy and hip joint preservation surgery. While books have been published on hip arthroscopy, these texts are limited to the technical aspects of the procedure and do not explore content related to hip joint preservation surgery. The scope of this book covers the basic science of hip pathology, anatomy, biomechanics, pathology, and treatment.  It has put together up-to-date research and has invited opinion leaders in the field to contribute to the text. The book is focused on disease pathology and provides comprehensive information on each disease topic, which is followed by technique-driven chapters to provide surgeons a reference for any procedure related to non-arthritic conditions of the hip.​

A reader-friendly overview of the fundamentals in hip pathology and treatment presented by esteemed experts!Synopsis of Hip Surgery by renowned hip specialists Shane Nho, Joshua Harris, Brett Levine, and an impressive group of contributors provides a well-rounded perspective on the surgical and nonsurgical management of common to rare hip conditions. The generously illustrated clinical reference is both concise and comprehensive, not only encompassing the full age continuum but also a wide array of hip disorders such as congenital and degenerative issues and problems associated with sports injuries.The first seven chapters lay a solid foundation, covering hip anatomy, patient history, physical examination, radiographic imaging, diagnostic tests, biomechanics, pathomechanics, and implant biology. Subsequent chapters detail prevalent conditions such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, hip dysplasia, soft-tissue injuries, and osteoarthritis. The text also covers less common diseases including synovial proliferative disorders, primary and metastatic tumors, and osteonecrosis. Procedure-specific chapters focus on primary and revision total hip arthroplasty and hip replacement surgery.Key Features An outline format and bulleted text provide a quick, easy reference for trainees and practitioners to consult prior to conferences, at the office, and in the operating roomAbout 300 color illustrations enhance understanding of impacted anatomy and proceduresFractures of the pelvis and hip including intracapsular, extracapsular, and acetabulumDiscussion of pediatric conditions including Legg-CalvÉ-Perthes disease, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and hip fracturesThis concise resource is essential reading for orthopaedic surgery residents, orthopaedic sports medicine and adult reconstruction fellows, general orthopaedic surgeons, and hip specialists.This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.

Key Features

An outline format and bulleted text provide a quick, easy reference for trainees and practitioners to consult prior to conferences, at the office, and in the operating roomOver 200 color illustrations enhance understanding of impacted anatomy and proceduresFractures of the pelvis and hip including intracapsular, extracapsular, and acetabulumDiscussion of pediatric conditions including Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and hip fractures

This concise resource is essential reading for orthopaedic surgery residents, orthopaedic sports medicine and adult reconstruction fellows, general orthopaedic surgeons, and hip specialists.

The field of hip preservation surgery has evolved over the past decade as our understanding of hip pathomechanics and pathomorphology has expanded. The published literature on non-arthritic hip pathology, for example, has grown exponentially. The topics of controversy in the past decade have been answered in some cases, but new questions have also arisen.  In addition to the 99 chapters in the original edition – most of which will be retained and updated as applicable – there will be over 30 brand new chapters focusing on new and more sophisticated techniques from authors that have been the pioneers of the field. The text is divided into nine thematic sections, covering the breadth of the topic and the current state of the art: basic science of the hip; operative basics for hip arthroscopy and open hip preservation surgery; pediatric hip conditions; approaches to disorders of the hip and pelvis; enthesopathy and neuromusculardisorders; hip fractures and instability; avascular necrosis; hip cartilage restoration; and oncologic conditions. Throughout, there is a heavy emphasis on surgical techniques, and video clips will be included in selected chapters. Written by edited by thought leaders and seasoned practitioners in the field, this new edition of Hip Arthroscopy and Hip Joint Preservation Surgery will remain the gold standard for orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists, expanding on the range of techniques available to clinicians treating injuries to and disorders of the hip.
