Cover Story: Protrusio acetabuli is a condition known to increase the complexity and risk of complications in THA. Although grading systems for native hip protrusio have been described, there is no widely adopted classification system that categorizes the condition into distinct classes to guide management. We propose a novel classification to simplify and standardize the management of protrusio acetabuli in modern THA. This classification describes protrusio based on the relationship of the femoral head to the ilioischial and iliopectineal lines, allowing for reproducible and consistent categorization of pathology. We also discuss recommendations and technical pearls for THA in the protrusio patient population, including soft tissue releases, fluoroscopy, navigation, bone graft, and augments. View this paper

5 January 2023

I previously reported that F-box/leucine-rich repeat protein 14 (FBXL14) expressed in periosteum-derived cells, and F-box and WD-40 domain-containing protein 2 (FBXW2) in the periosteum form a fiber-like structure. Here, two culture medium conditions...
