The evolving role and technique of hip arthroscopy in children and adolescents.
Review in Journal of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Hip Arthroscopy in the pediatric and adolescent hip has evolved from its role as a diagnostic tool to a primary modality of management of variety of hip pathologies in children and adolescents. This article reviews current concepts and advances in hip arthroscopy in this population. We discuss the indications, techniques, outcomes, and complications of hip arthroscopy in children and adolescents. We explore the newer indications of hip arthroscopy in the treatment of SCFE (Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis) deformity correction, borderline hip dysplasia, septic arthritis, infantile developmental dysplasia, Perthes disease, and the existing and developing evidence. Finally, we address the challenges and future directions in research, education, and training, unique to the pediatric and adolescent population. Key Concepts: (1)Hip arthroscopy has significant surgical applications in the pediatric and adolescent population, and can be used to help address several intra-articular as well as extra-articular pathologies.(2)The indications and potential for arthroscopic interventions and associated arthroscopic techniques is growing and developing rapidly, along with improving technology, techniques, and training.(3)FAI (Femoro Acetabular Impingement) and labral pathology are the most common indications for surgery in the adolescent, and clinical outcome studies show excellent results. However, nonoperative optimization should be strongly emphasized before surgical consideration.(4)Hip arthroscopy is minimally invasive and relatively low risk, though main risks and complications to be aware of is the potential need for revision or further surgery, transient neuropraxia of the pudendal nerve, surgical site infection, implant/tool-related breakage or failure, failed surgery, and venous thromboembolism.(5)Continued research and innovation in the field of pediatric hip arthroscopy are essential for further improving outcomes and expanding treatment options for young patients with hip disorders, and more pediatric-specific clinical research is needed.
