Ulnar Collateral Ligament Repair With Internal Brace Using Linked Knotless Suture Anchors
This article presents an adaptation of the internal brace ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) repair technique using knotless suture anchors, which shows promise for improved postsurgical functionality and a shortened recovery period in patients with UCL injuries.
Rotator Cuff Tears were Significantly More frequent in Recurrent Shoulder Instability Patients with Initial Dislocation After 40 Years than Those Before
The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the pathologies and clinical outcomes of patients with traumatic anterior shoulder instability who underwent arthroscopic stabilization at 40 years or older between shoulders with initial dislocation before and after 40 years old.
De Quervain's Tenosynovitis: Conservative Management and Surgical Treatment
De Quervain's tenosynovitis (also called de Quervain's disease) is a condition that affects tendons that attach to two muscles of the thumb—extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus.1 This condition typically develops from repetitive use of the thumb for activities such as twisting and pinching, but the cause is not always known.
Deltoid Muscle Anatomy and Function
The deltoid muscle is the main muscle of the shoulder. A triangle-shaped muscle, it helps move your upper arm and stabilizes the shoulder joint.
Augmentation with onlay dermal allografts may enhance rotator cuff repair
In recent years, one approach that has gained traction involves the utilization of grafts, such as xenografts, synthetic grafts and allografts, to augment the reparative process. The primary objective of this technique is to enhance the structural integrity of the repair and improve postoperative outcomes.
