Strengthening this important joint in each leg is essential, not only for injured athletes who need rehabilitation to get back on the field or court, but for everyone else to be able to comfortably go about our daily lives without needing crutches or other walking aids.
The complete ACL rupture was the most common injury found in football, basketball and volleyball players, followed by meniscal injury in street runners.
Osteitis pubis is the non-infectious inflammation of the joint between your left and right pubic bones, called the pubic symphysis. This painful condition is often the result of a repetitive use injury in athletes who play football, ice hockey, or soccer. Osteitis pubis can also develop during pregnancy due to the weight-bearing stress placed on the pubic girdle.
Meniscus root tears (MRTs) are radial tears located near the anterior or posterior meniscotibial attachment, which are often underdiagnosed and associated with accelerated knee osteoarthritis (OA). Medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs), frequently observed in middle-aged women, lead to altered knee biomechanics and joint degeneration if untreated. While historically managed with meniscectomy, the modern approach emphasizes arthroscopic repair to restore joint stability and delay OA progression.
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) primarily affects young adults, leading to femoral head collapse and secondary osteoarthritis. Treatments include joint-preserving surgery, which has been performed preferentially, especially for young adults, and joint arthroplasty, i.e., total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although advancements in implant materials have markedly improved performance, there are few data regarding implant survival and clinical outcomes in younger patients. This study aimed to assess long-term implant survival of more than 120 months and clinical outcomes in young ONFH patients undergoing primary THA.
