The Mental Side of the Injured Athlete

Daley, Mary M. MD; Griffith, Kelsey MS; Milewski, Matthew D. MD; Christino, Melissa A. MD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00974

The psychosocial benefits of participating in sports have long been appreciated. However, athletes are often faced with circumstances that make them susceptible to psychological challenges unique to the athletic population. One such circumstance is injury in sport, which can be a source of notable distress and may precipitate the emergence of new or exacerbation of underlying psychological disorders. In athletes who are injured, particularly those undergoing surgical intervention, psychological factors play a substantial role in the recovery process. A more comprehensive understanding of the complex interplay between psychological and physical health in the setting of an injury is essential to optimize patient care. The aim of this review was to highlight the impact of psychological factors on measurable outcomes after orthopaedic surgical interventions and to explore interventions that can be implemented to improve surgical outcomes and the overall care of injured athletes.

Stress Fractures of the Fifth Metatarsal in Athletes

Patel, Karan A. MD; Christopher, Zachary K. MD; Hubbard, Christopher E. MD; O'Malley, Martin J. MD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-01060

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p 507-517

Stress fractures of the fifth metatarsal (zones 2 and 3) remain a challenging clinical problem. It has been well established that nonsurgical treatment has unacceptably high nonunion and refracture rates. Surgical fixation remains the treatment of choice in the athletic cohort, and intramedullary screw fixation with a solid screw has been established as the most predictable means of achieving a successful outcome. Recently, the use of a plantar plate has also been advocated as has been shown in some studies to be more biomechanically advantageous. The use of bone grafting at the primary surgery and morphology and screw type are also important decisions to be made when treating these patients. This review will discuss our management of both primary fractures and refractures of the fifth metatarsal in athletes.

Open and Arthroscopic Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex (TFCC) Repair

Srinivasan, Ramesh C. MD; Shrouder-Henry, Jason J. MD, MBA, FRCS(C); Richard, Marc J. MD; Ruch, David S. MD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00998

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p 518-525

Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears, whether acute or chronic, can result in persistent ulnar-sided wrist pain. Although diagnosis and nonsurgical management of TFCC tears is well described, there remains ongoing discussion about the optimal surgical technique, specifically open or arthroscopic. This article reviews the most up-to-date literature regarding TFCC injury including demographics, risk factors for TFCC injury, classification of acute and chronic TFCC tears, history and physical examination, appropriate diagnostic imaging, surgical indications, pertinent surgical anatomy, open and arthroscopic TFCC repair, fixation biomechanics and techniques, postoperative rehabilitation, and clinical outcomes.

The Use of Tranexamic Acid in Hip and Pelvic Fracture Surgeries

Adams, John D. Jr MD, FAAOS; Marshall, William A. MD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00750

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p e576-e583

Tranexamic acid (TXA) use has expanded across many surgical specialties. It has been shown to reduce blood loss, decrease transfusion rates, and, in some cases, improve mortality. Within orthopaedic surgery, its popularity has primarily grown within arthroplasty and spinal surgery. It has only recently gained traction within the field of orthopaedic trauma and fracture care. At this time, most literature focuses on hip fracture and pelvic trauma surgery. For hip fractures, the results are encouraging and generally support the claim that TXA may lower overall blood loss and decrease transfusions. Conversely, less support exists for TXA use in fractures of the acetabulum or pelvic ring. Based on the current fracture-related studies, TXA does not seem to carry an increased risk of thromboembolism or other complications. In addition, few studies have been noted discussing the route of administration, timing, or dosage. This article reviews the most current literature regarding TXA use in fracture care and expands on the need for further research to evaluate the role of TXA in orthopaedic trauma populations who carry a high risk for transfusion.

Risk Factors for Increased Consumption of Narcotics After Hip Arthroscopy: A Prospective, Randomized Control Trial

Selley, Ryan S. MD; Hartwell, Matthew J. MD; Alvandi, Bejan A. MD; Terry, Michael A. MD; Tjong, Vehniah K. MD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00122

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p 527-536

No accepted standard exists regarding the number of opioids to prescribe after many surgical procedures, and previous literature has indicated that the number of opioids prescribed influences the total number of pills consumed. The goal of this study was to investigate whether prescribing less opioids after hip arthroscopy results in less total postoperative utilization without compromising analgesia and identify risk factors for increased use.

Comorbidity Burden Contributing to Racial Disparities in Outpatient Versus Inpatient Total Knee Arthroplasty

Wu, Mark MD; Belay, Elshaday MD; Cochrane, Niall MD; O'Donnell, Jeffrey MD; Seyler, Thorsten MD, PhD

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-01038

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p 537-543

Outpatient total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is increasingly common in the setting of early-recovery protocols, value-based care, and removal from the inpatient-only list by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Given the established racial disparities that exist in different aspects of total joint arthroplasty, we aimed to investigate whether racial and ethnic disparities exist in outpatient compared with inpatient TKA.

A Tensionable Suture-based Cerclage Is an Alternative to Stainless Steel Cerclage Fixation for Stabilization of a Humeral Osteotomy During Shoulder Arthroplasty

Denard, Patrick J. MD; Nolte, Philip-C. MD, MA; Millett, Peter J. MD, MSc; Adams, Christopher R. MD; Liebler, Stephenie A.H. PhD; Rego, George MPH, PA-C; Higgins, Laurence D. MD, MBA

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00047

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p e609-e617

Fixation of periprosthetic humeral fractures is most commonly obtained with steel-based wires or cables; however, disadvantages with these constructs are numerous. Suture-based cerclages offer the advantage of easy handling, less radiographic interference, and risk of metallosis, as well as decreased risk of cutting into the soft humeral bone. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare a suture-based cerclage to a stainless steel wire cerclage (SSWC) for stabilization of the humerus during shoulder arthroplasty.

Dual-Mobility Articulations in Femoral Neck Fractures: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Meta-analysis of the Outcomes

Albanese, Kevin M. MD; Deshmane, Prashant MD; Patil, Nilesh MD; Larsen, David A. PhD; Ordway, Nathaniel R. MS

doi : 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00407

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: June 15, 2021 - Volume 29 - Issue 12 - p e618-e627

Femoral neck fractures have been traditionally managed with hemiarthroplasty (HA) or conventional total hip arthroplasty (CTHA). There has been recent interest in using dual-mobility components (DMC) in total hip arthroplasty for patients with femoral neck fractures to provide increased stability and decrease the need for future revision.
