Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of strengthening exercises of hip abductors on muscle strength and ambulation for patients with ACL reconstruction. Methods: The subjects were randomly assigned to the intervention group (general exercise plus strengthening of hip abductors) or the control group (general exercise without the strengthening of hip abductors). Both groups participated in a six-week exercise protocol after the surgery for ACL reconstruction. The knee strength test (quadriceps, hamstring, hip abductor) and gait analysis were performed in pretest and post-test. Results: Muscle strength was measured using the Biodex system III model (Biodex Medical System, Inc, NY, US). The results showed no significant difference in knee strength (quadriceps, hamstring) between the two groups (p>0.05), however, there was a significant difference in hip abductors (p<0.05). The gait analysis was measured with Gaitrite system (CIR System Inc, US). Results of comparison between groups showed a significant increase in the step length of both groups. (p<0.05), and there was a significant difference in the affected leg of the intervention group(p<0.05). Conclusion: Exercise of hip abductors for patients with ACL reconstruction provides significant benefits with respect to improvement of muscle strength in hip abductors, increasing the stride. This result indicates that a training program designed for ACL reconstruction patients should include strengthening of the hip abductor. We think that further study is needed to determine the relationship of hip muscles and knee joint for patients with ACL reconstruction.

Introduction: To evaluate the efficacy of superior gluteal artery-pedicled iliac crest for the treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head. Material & Method: From January 2001 to October 2001, we used the superior deep branches of superior gluteal artery for the pedicled posterior iliac crest bone graft to revascularize the avascular femoral head in 4 patients. They were 1 man and 3 women, and the mean age of the patients was 34 years (range, 27 to 60). The average follow-up after surgery was over 57 months (range, 15 to 82). We analyzed the clinical results by the Harris hip score, and evaluated the vascularity of the femoral head by radiographic methods. Results: All cases showed no evidence of collapse on femoral heads and good revascularizations on the radiographic images. The average Harris hip score was 88.5 points. There was no complication. Conclusion: The revascularization procedure using the superior gluteal artery-pedicled posterior iliac crest was thought to be one of the effective and promising techniques for the treatment of the avascular necrosis of femoral head.

Purpose : The purpose of present study is to evaluate the joint angles of legs in the standing posture for six patients with unilateral knee osteoarthritis. Methods : The participants underwent unilateral total knee replacement. A motion analysis was used to measure the joint angles of the hip, knee, and ankle. The measurements were taken before the surgery, one week and two weeks after the surgery. Both sides of the legs were evaluated. Results : This result showed that after a certain healing period, both hip joint angles showed a significant difference while there was no significant difference in the knee and ankle joint angles. After surgery, the angle of ankle dorsiflexion was smaller on the operated side than the opposite side compared to the pre-surgery measurements. Conclusion : After surgery, the asymmetry in a standing position left unchanged due to contracture of the knee joint and tightness in the hamstring muscle. Therefore, when physiotherapists plan an initial exercise programs for TKR patients, it is essential to apply adequate exercises which consider the contracture of the leg joints.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the prevalence, risk factors, characteristics, and interventions of hip joint problems in children with cerebral palsy, and to be able to serve as leverage for early detection, prevention, and function recovery. Method The electronic journal site was searched by the search terms "cerebral palsy", "hip joint", "hip joint dislocation", we analyzed and descript the cited articles from domestic and foreign papers in Pubmed 9, Science Direct 7, and K RISS analysis and analysis. Results Children with cerebral palsy showed the different prevalence according to their disability type, severity, and functional level, and we knew that abnormal neuromuscular control, stiffness, and biomechanical changes could be risk factors. Migration Index, Acetabolum Index, Neck shaft angle using by radiography and passive ROM test, special tests were available for the diagnosis and evaluation of the hip joint. Combination of physical therapy and orthopedic surgery was very important intervention, and complementary alternative therapy, orthosis, and postural assistant are effective. Conclusion We suggested that early detection and prevention is the most important periodic examination and that a multidisciplinary approach is a major factor in intervention.

장요 점액낭은 장요근건과 고관절 막 사이에 존재하는 구조물로 정상적인 경우 초음파로 확인하기 힘들지만 일부에서 고관절과 연결되어 있어 관절내 병변에 동반되어 장요 점액낭염이 나타나기도 한다. 저자들은 만성 고관절 동통을 호소하는 환자들에서 장요 점액낭염과 동반된 비구순 파열 2예를 초음파를 통해 진단하고 경험하였기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Background: The purpose of the study, using the ICF Tool in the process of rehabilitation of artificial joint replacement surgery of the hip joint, goal setting and understanding of the problem, through the process of creating intervention strategies, useful clinical practical course for rehabilitation I try to present the data. Methods: Fracture was the left total hip replacement (THR) surgery due to women of 76 years old. I proceed in order screening, evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment planning and intervention, re-screening. Needs of the patient was walking short distances for using the toilet. In order to improve was carried out arbitration, after you have created a list of issues that limit the ability to walk short distances. Results: It was revealed improved results in self-paced walk test (SPWT) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) was used to examine whether the goals. In addition, MMT VAS, DGI, and TUG is a detailed goal was improved. Conclusions: It can be shown objectively the results of interventions performed for the purpose of solving the problem which is grasped through clinical Practical course for short-range walking ability enhance patient THR. I considered practical clinical course using the ICF Tool would be useful.

목적: 65세 이상 노인 환자들을 대상으로 세라믹 대퇴 골두 및 교차결합 폴리에틸렌 라이너를 인공 관절면으로 사용한 무시멘트형 인공 고관절 전치환술의 최소 5년 이상 임상 및 방사선 추시 결과들을 분석하여 세라믹-폴리에틸렌 관절면의 유용성 여부를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2010년 3월부터 2012년 9월까지 65세 이상 노인 환자 51명(56 고관절)을 대상으로 후향적 연구를 진행하였다. 평균 연령은 $70.9{\pm}5.1$세였다. 임상 평가는 Harris hip score를 이용하였고, 방사선 평가는 비구 컵 경사각 및 전염각, 대퇴 스템 정렬 상태, 마모를 측정하였다. 수술 후 합병증 발생 유무도 조사하였다. 결과: 임상 평가상 Harris hip score는 수술 전 평균 48점에서 최종 추시 시 평균 87점으로 향상되었다(p<0.05). 방사선 평가상 평균 비구 컵 경사각은 $40.9^{\circ}{\pm}6.4^{\circ}$, 평균 비구 컵 전염각은 $20.3^{\circ}{\pm}8.1^{\circ}$였다. 거상 라이너를 사용한 16예에서 평균 비구 컵 전염각은 $14.3^{\circ}{\pm}7.9^{\circ}$, 중립 라이너를 사용한 40예에서 평균 비구 컵 전염각은 $22.4^{\circ}{\pm}9.1^{\circ}$였다(p<0.05). 평균 대퇴 스템 정렬각은 $0^{\circ}$도(범위, 내반 $4^{\circ}$-외반 $4^{\circ}$)였다. 평균 선상 마모량은 $0.458{\pm}0.041mm$였으며 평균 연간 선상 마모율은 $0.079{\pm}0.032mm/yr$였다. 수술 후 합병증으로 대퇴 스템 주위 골절 6예(10.7%)가 발생하였다. 결론: 본 연구 결과 분석상 탈구나 세라믹-폴리에틸렌 관절면에서 기인한 합병증이 없으므로 65세 이상 노인 환자에서 무시멘트형 인공 고관절 전치환술 시행 시 세라믹-폴리에틸렌 관절면을 유용하게 사용할 수 있으나 수술 중 대퇴 스템 주위 골절 발생을 방지하기 위한 좀 더 세심한 노력이 필요하다.

Percutaneous radiofrequency thermocoagulation has been applied in patients with various forms of chronic pain, such as facet joint pain, cancer pain and trigeminal neuralgia. A major portion of the hip joint is innervated by the articular branches of the femoral and obturator nerves. Radiofrequency thermocoagulation of the articular branches of the obturator and femoral nerves can be a good alternative treatment for patients with hip joint pain, especially in those where surgery is not applicable. A patient suffering hip joint pain due to metastatic cancer underwent multiple radiofrequency lesioning of the femoral and obturator nerves at $80^{\circ}C$ for 120 seconds, using a Racz-Finch Kit. The patient experienced about a 50% reduction in the pain, without any numbness or other side effects.
