Dr Pascual and team reported, for the first time, on early epigenetic changes that occur in FAI hip disease. These changes are driving a molecular dysregulation that might be deleterious to hip joint homeostasis and resulting in progression to hip OA
Acetabular coverage analysis of the proximal femoral head accurately characterizes dysplastic acetabular morphology
Greater hip abductor size in prearthritic patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip versus femoroacetabular impingement
A Novel Model of Hip Femoroacetabular Impingement in Immature Rabbits Reproduces the Distinctive Head-Neck Cam Deformity
This study confirms, for the first time, that early and late stage of hip FAI disease are distinct molecular entities. Additionally, key molecular players in the progression of hip OA have been identified.
This study shows for the first time that inflammation in patients with hip FAI is similar to that observe in hip OA. This study is important since it is, for the first time, suggesting that this chronic inflammation may be a reason why these patients progress faster to OA.
Tracing the Inflammatory Origins Of Hip Impingement Symptoms
Dr. Pascual just published novel data coming from her lab proving that Hip Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) results in intraarticular cartilage inflammation. This information is very important since it suggests that inflammation may play a critical role in the mechanism of disease in hip FAI and hip osteoarthritis.
Dr. Pascual just published a study on the advantages of using PROMIS as a Patient Reported Outcome tool in Patients Undergoing Surgical Treatment for Hip Dysplasia.
Dr. Pascual develops a new technique to repair Glut Tears. This technique is minimally invasive and allows patients to be back active 8-12 weeks following surgery.
High level active patients undergoing a PAO for the treatment of symptomatic hip dysplasia maintain a high level of activity at 7 years post-operative.
