Arthroscopic Repair of Medium to Large Rotator Cuff Tears with a Triple-Loaded Medially Based Single-Row Technique Augmented with Marrow Vents Authors Mark H. Getelman M.D., Brian D. Dierckman M.D., Petros Frousiakis D.O., Joseph [...]
Purpose To compare patient-reported outcomes and healing rates after open subpectoral and all-arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis without the use of interference screws in patients with more than 2 years of follow-up. Methods Patients with [...]
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the time zero cyclic and failure loading properties of a linked single-row rotator cuff repair compared with a standard simple suture single-row repair using [...]
We appreciate the work by Xu to evaluate the collective clinical and advanced-imaging outcomes in their recent article, “Meta-analysis comparing single-row and double-row repair techniques in the arthroscopic treatment of rotator cuff tears.” [...]
Patients with multidirectional glenohumeral instability without a Bankart lesion represent a challenging group. Arthroscopic pancapsular plication affords the surgeon flexibility to correct the degree and direction of laxity in the multidirectionally unstable patient. [...]
BACKGROUND: Recurrent instability after surgical stabilization of the shoulder is uncommon. Although results of open revision stabilization procedures have been reported, only 3 studies have evaluated the outcome of arthroscopic revision surgery. PURPOSE: [...]
Most shoulder instability repairs are performed with single-loaded suture anchors. Recent reports have shown that there is increased stress on both the glenoid labrum and suture anchor when sutures from single-loaded anchors are [...]
PURPOSE: (1) Describe a previously unreported finding involving the intra-articular portion of the subscapularis, the Conrad lesion. (2) Describe a novel classification system for the spectrum of non-insertional tendinopathy of the subscapularis. (3) [...]
PURPOSE: To determine the effectiveness of proficiency-based progression (PBP) training using simulation both compared with the same training without proficiency requirements and compared with a traditional resident course for learning to perform an [...]
We conducted a study to evaluate in vivo tension applied to the rotator cuff tendon positioned at the medial versus lateral footprint during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. We evaluated 20 consecutive patients who [...]
