The article titled “Editorial Commentary: Don’t Worry About It—Hip Arthroscopy Is Safe From Venous Thromboembolism…Mostly Yes!,” published in the August 2019 issue (Arthroscopy 2019;35:2400-2401), was positioned incorrectly within the August issue.
This Editorial Commentary article, authored by Olufemi R. Ayeni, should have positioned directly after the article upon which it was commenting, “Incidence and Risk Factors for Venous Thromboembolism Following Hip Arthroscopy: A Population-Based Study” by Khazi, An, Duchman, and Westermann. The Commentary was instead incorrectly placed after the article “Effects of Preoperative Virtual Reality Magnetic Resonance Imaging on Preoperative Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Arthroscopic Knee Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Study,” and this latter article was also incorrectly referenced in the Commentary’s reference list due to publisher error. The reference list has since been corrected online to correctly cite the Khazi et al. article.

Although this is very encouraging, risk stratification based on individual factors must be applied to determine in which patients it is best to administer venous thromboembolism prophylaxis after hip arthroscopy.
