[i] During traumatic hip fracture-dislocation, the attainment of concentric reduction in the joint is commonly impeded by the presence of a bony fragment and, less frequently, by injuries to the soft tissues such as a torn acetabular labrum, ruptured capsule, or ligamentum teres.  

Complications in patients who underwent open arthrotomy included a 37% incidence of postoperative heterotopic ossification (HO), along with cases of cosmetic deformity and ligamentum teres rupture.  


[ii] Patients aged ≥40 years had a higher prevalence of ligamentum teres damage (P< .001) and underwent ligamentum teres debridement at higher rates (54% vs 35%; P = .02) as well as higher rates of femoroplasty (74% vs 57%; P = .03).  


[iii] The fibroblasts in patients with AS (ankylosing spondylitis) were obtained from the ligamentum teres of the hip during total hip arthroplasty. 


[iv]  Persistent anterior or lateral hip impingement test might indicate an under resection of Cam or Pincer deformity and a possible re-tear of the labrum, a positive O'Donnell test might indicate ligamentum teres (LT) pathology,… 


[v] Studies show preliminary traction decreasing the incidence of AVN undergoing CR for DDH [20, 21, 22], but any traction will have an insignificant effect on the main obstacles for reduction for eg. pulvinar, tight hour-glass capsule, transverse acetabular ligament, hypertrophied ligamentum teres (all intracapsular).


[vi] Various factors may lead to poor results of hip arthroscopy in BDDH treatment [1, 25, 42]. Studies found that preoperative tearing of the round ligament can lead to lower mental and psychological scores in BDDH patients after hip arthroscopy, making it more difficult to achieve PASS, and significantly increasing the patient’s risk of reoperation or even THA [1, 20].

[vii] The femoral head, meanwhile, remains within the acetabulum, constrained by the ligamentum teres, but may rotate to assume a posteroinferior position relative to the shaft.

 

[viii] The primary reported cause is laxity of the soft tissues adjacent to the joint, including the round ligament of the femoral head and laxity of the joint capsule associated with hip dysplasia (Fossum, 2014).

Abstract

Background Hip-preserving surgery in young patients frequently reveals lesions of the ligamentum teres (LT). Histological and clinical evidence supports that those lesions could be source of intraarticular hip pain. It has been hypothesized that LT degeneration could be linked to the abnormal positioning of the fovea outside the lunate surface during various daily motions. We introduce the “fossa-foveolar mismatch” (FFM) by determining the trajectory of the fovea in the fossa during hip motions, enabling a comparison across diverse hip-pathomorphologies.

Conclusions The FFM-index showed excellent intraobserver reliability and interobserver reproducibility for all motions. This innovative approach deepens our understanding of biomechanical implications, providing valuable insights for identifying patient populations at risk. 


Fig. 1 The fossa-foveolar mismatch is illustrated by displaying (A) no fossa-foveolar mismatch and (B) presence of a fossa-foveolar mismatch with a pathologic foveolar tracking pattern for the motion of everyday life internal/external rotation in 90 degrees flexion (Commons Attribution 4.0 International)

Fig. 3 (A) Based on CT of the pelvis and distal femur; (B) we created a 3D model; (C) The acetabular fossa was digitally removed; (D) the fovea was identified and manually exaggerated; (E) finally, the model was subjected to standardized movements within physiological range of motion and the foveolar tracking pattern was determined. (Commons Attribution 4.0 International)

1833GerdyPN

  P.N. Gerdy, in his experiment, discovered tensioning of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) during thigh adduction. At the same time, it was noted for the first time that the consequence of LCF tension during hip adduction is a downward and lateral displacement of the femoral head. Normally, this mechanism provides unloading of the upper articular surfaces when supporting one leg (see 1874SavoryWS ). The translation from French was done in collaboration with ChatGPT 3.5.   Gerdy PN. Physiologie médicale, didactique et critique. T. 1. Paris: Librairie de Crochard, 1833.
