Meniscal Tear Repair: What’s New in the Literature?
Meniscal tear repair has become the gold standard modality for treating different types of meniscal tears. Despite the availability of numerous repair techniques, the ideal approach remains unclear, especially for complex and irreparable tears. Recently, innovative techniques have emerged to address these challenges, including hybrid/salvage techniques, meniscal scaffolds, and the introduction of biologics as part of the treatment.
Traumatic Versus Atraumatic Causes of Shoulder Impingement Syndrome: A Systematic Review of Pathophysiology and Outcomes
Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is a common musculoskeletal disorder caused by traumatic or atraumatic factors, resulting in pain, functional limitation, and reduced quality of life. This systematic review aimed to summarize the pathophysiology, anatomical changes, and functional outcomes of traumatic versus atraumatic SIS.
Shoulder Impingement Pain Syndrome: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and a Review of Current Treatment Strategies
The shoulder is an intricate joint, capable of a wide range of movements for both daily activities and physical exercise. This intricate joint is susceptible to various injuries and conditions due to its design. Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS), also clinically recognized as subacromial impingement syndrome (SAIS), is a prevalent source of shoulder discomfort, which is a spectrum of disorders such as rotator cuff tendinopathy, partial or complete tears, and inflammation of the subacromial bursa.
What's Causing Your Inner Elbow Pain—and How To Treat It
Inner elbow pain pain often stems from overuse and repetitive stress. It can sometimes develop in response to injury or inflammation, such as medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow) or arthritis.
What happens to the elbow 15 years after a radial head prosthesis? A clinical and imaging long-term follow-up study.
Radial head arthroplasty (RHA) has increasingly become the standard treatment for non-reconstructable radial head fractures, especially in young active patients where long-lasting function restoration is of paramount importance. However, long-term evidence of the results over time is still scarce. The purpose of this study was to document the long-term outcomes of RHA for acute radial head fractures.
