Article Title: Arthroscopic Bone Grafting of Deep Acetabular Cysts Using a Curved Delivery Device

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2015.10.012

Figure Lengend Snippet: Intraoperative arthroscopic images corresponding to the right hip in Figure 1. (A) Viewing through the mid-trochanteric portal with a 30° arthroscope, the full-thickness articular cartilage flap (black asterisk) is gently elevated with a probe (yellow asterisk) inserted through the mid-anterior portal. The articular cartilage flap covers the underlying acetabular bone cyst. (B) Viewing through the mid-anterior portal with a 30° arthroscope, an angled curette (yellow asterisk) is inserted through the mid-trochanteric portal to remove the calcified cartilage layer from the articular cartilage defect and to establish a stable rim. The articular communication of the cystic contents (black asterisk) is seen adjacent to the curette. (C) Viewing through the mid-trochanteric portal with a 30° arthroscope, the well-contained articular cartilage defect is seen (black asterisk) after removal of the overlying full-thickness cartilage flap. (D) Viewing through the mid-trochanteric portal with a 30° arthroscope, an angled microfracture awl (yellow asterisk) is inserted through the mid-anterior portal to gently probe and excavate the mucinous contents from the cystic cavity, adjacent to the articular cartilage defect (black asterisk). (a, acetabulum; CF, cotyloid fossa.)

Article Snippet: Cyst Decompression and Bone Grafting The damaged cartilage is sharply excised using angled curettes (Bruns Bone Curette Angled #1, Sklar Instruments, West Chester, PA) and shavers ( B and C), and the underlying articular breach is exposed with an appropriately angled microfracture awl (XL Microfracture Awl, Smith & Nephew, Andover, MA) ( D, Video 1 ).

Article Title: Endoscopic Accessory Navicular Synchondrosis Fusion

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2016.07.018

Figure Lengend Snippet: Endoscopic accessory navicular synchondrosis fusion of left foot. (A) The synchondrosis can be marked by a needle (arrowhead) that is inserted under fluoroscopy. (B) The needle can serve as an arthroscopic landmark for the synchondrosis during endoscopy. (AN, accessory navicular; MM, medial malleolus; N, navicular bone; S, synchondrosis; TPT, tibialis posterior tendon.)

Article Snippet: The bone surfaces of the navicular and accessory bones can be debrided by an arthroscopic curette (Acufex; Smith & Nephew), arthroscopic osteotome (Acufex; Smith & Nephew), and small periosteal elevator to clear all the soft tissue from the bone surfaces ( ).
