Shoulder Subluxation: Healing a Partially Dislocated Shoulder Injury
Shoulder subluxation is a partially dislocated shoulder. The issue occurs when the end (head) of the humerus bone partially shifts out of the glenoid fossa (socket) portion of the shoulder joint.
8 Bicep Tendonitis Exercises
If you have pain in your upper arm or shoulder, you may have irritated your biceps tendon, a condition known as biceps tendonitis. The pain may limit your shoulder motion and make performing normal work and recreational tasks difficult or impossible. You should see a healthcare provider who can diagnose biceps tendonitis and refer you to a physical therapist for treatment.
Enhancing Healing of Massive Rotator Cuff Tears: A Radiographic Evaluation of Bridging Allograft vs. Maximal Repair - A Randomized Control Trial
The purpose of this study was to compare the radiographic results of bridging rotator cuff reconstruction (BRR) with dermal allograft and maximal repair for large or massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears.
When Not to Have Rotator Cuff Surgery
Rotator cuff tears may require surgery to repair, but they can often heal with rest, physical therapy, and medication when needed. Discuss with your orthopedist when to have or not have rotator cuff surgery.
Reconstruction of the elbow with distal humerus endoprosthetic replacement after tumor resection – A systematic review of the literature and institutional case series
Distal biceps ruptures are common injuries that lead to significant decrease in elbow supination strength and pain. This Technical Note describes a single-incision distal biceps tendon repair using 2 knotless suture anchors. This technique is easily reproducible, is efficient, and has the unique benefits of decreasing the risk of heterotopic ossification and damage to neurovascular structure while providing similar outcomes to other described fixation techniques.
Shoulder fracture: Types, treatment, and recovery
A shoulder fracture is a broken bone in the shoulder. These fractures typically occur after a fall or high impact collision. In most cases, surgery is not necessary to treat a shoulder fracture.
Causes of Shoulder Pain and Treatment Options
Reasons for why your shoulder hurts can vary, but where you feel pain can help narrow down the cause. You may have an ache from something as simple as poor posture at the computer. You may have a case of shoulder bursitis due to repetitive motion, a sudden injury, or even a completely different medical condition.
Two-Portal Arthroscopic Knotless All-Suture Anchor Posterior Labral Repair
Isolated posterior shoulder instability accounts for approximately 10% of shoulder instability cases. Patients may present after an acute trauma or with insidious onset and associated posterior shoulder pain. Knotless and all-suture anchor devices have become increasing popular and are often used in arthroscopic shoulder instability cases to avoid knot stacks and allow for the ability to re-tension the fixation. This technical note describes our technique for 2-portal posterior labral repair using knotless all-suture anchors with the patient in the lateral decubitus position.
What types of shoulder surgery are available?
The shoulder is a mobile and complex joint that is prone to dislocation and injury. Several types of shoulder surgery can address and correct various shoulder symptoms.
Elbow Ulnar Collateral Ligament Repair With Suture Augmentation Is Biomechanically Equivalent to Reconstruction and Clinically Demonstrates Excellent Outcomes: A Systematic Review
To systematically review (1) biomechanical properties of augmented elbow ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) repair compared with reconstruction and (2) clinical efficacy and complication rates of UCL repair with and without augmentation.
