Management of Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome: A Narrative Review Open
Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is characterized by pain and tenderness over the lateral aspect of the hip. It encompasses a spectrum of conditions, including abductor tendinopathy, trochanteric bursitis, and external coxa saltan…

Cell salvage for minimising perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion in adults undergoing elective surgery Open
In some types of elective surgery, cell salvage may reduce the need for and volume of allogeneic transfusion, alongside evidence of no difference in adverse events, when compared to no cell salvage. Further research is required to establis…

Does the publication of NICE guidelines for venous thromboembolism chemical prophylaxis influence the prescribing patterns of UK hip and knee surgeons? Open
Introduction We assessed the practice of surgeons regarding venous thromboembolism (VTE) chemical prophylaxis for total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR), before and after issuing of updated National Institute for Heal…

Association between hip joint impingement and lumbar disc disease in elite rowers Open
Objectives Lumbar disc disease is a known cause of back pain. Increasingly it is thought that cam morphology of the hip may have a causal role in development of lumbar disc disease. The aim of this study was to describe the morphology of t…

A longitudinal cohort study of adolescent elite footballers and controls investigating the development of cam morphology Open
Cam morphology describes an asphericity of the femoral head that develops during adolescence, is highly prevalent in athletes, and predisposes individuals to future osteoarthritis. However, it’s aetiology remains poorly understood. The aim…

Measuring 3D growth plate shape: Methodology and application to cam morphology Open
Physeal changes corresponding to cam morphology are currently measured using two‐dimensional (2D) methods. These methods are limited by definitions of the femoral neck axis and head center that are dependent on the radiographic plane of vi…

THE DEVELOPMENT OF CAM MORPHOLOGY DURING ADOLESCENCE: A LONGITUDINAL COHORT OF ELITE FOOTBALLERS AND CONTROLS Open
Background Cam morphology develops during adolescence and predisposes individuals to future hip pain and osteoarthritis. An improved understanding of cam development is required to determine whethe...

No Evidence of Systemic Inflammation in Symptomatic Patients With Femoroacetabular Impingement Open
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common cause of hip pain and represents a major cause of early osteoarthritis. The role of systemic inflammation in pre‐arthritic hip conditions remains largely unknown and uninvestigated. Serum‐free…

Compositional MRI of the Hip: Reproducibility, Effect of Joint Unloading, and Comparison of T2 Relaxometry with Delayed Gadolinium-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cartilage Open
Objective Our aim was to compare T2 with delayed gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of cartilage (dGEMRIC) in the hip and assess the reproducibility and effect of joint unloading on T2 mapping. Design Ten individuals at high ri…

Physical activity during adolescence and the development of cam morphology: a cross-sectional cohort study of 210 individuals Open
Introduction Cam morphology is a strong risk factor for the development of hip pain and osteoarthritis. It is increasingly thought to develop in association with intense physical activity during youth; however, the aetiology remains uncert…
