Stiff shoulders after rotator cuff repair may be less likely to require revision surgery
Patients with stiff shoulders after rotator cuff repair were more likely to be satisfied with their repair and less likely to require revision surgery than patients without stiff shoulders, according to results presented here.
Knee replacement in folks over 80: Less risky than you think
Knee replacement surgery is increasingly common among people over 80 sidelined with knee pain, and the procedure isn't as hazardous for them as often assumed.
Endoscopic Sciatic Neurolysis for Deep Gluteal Syndrome: A Systematic Review
Deep gluteal syndrome (DGS) is an underdiagnosed condition caused by an extra-spinal entrapment of the sciatic nerve in the deep gluteal space. Symptomatic patients who fail conservative treatment require surgical decompression of the nerve either by an open or endoscopic approach. In recent times, there has been an increasing trend towards minimally invasive surgery performed with endoscopic techniques.
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty for rotator cuff tears with and without prior failed rotator cuff repair: A large-scale comparative analysis
Large-scale data assessing the effect of a prior failed rotator cuff repair (RCR) on the outcome of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is currently lacking. Therefore, this study aimed (1) to assess the course of patients undergoing RCR, specifically focusing on the need for conversion to RSA within two years, and (2) to compare outcomes following RSA performed for rotator cuff tears (RCTs) with and without prior RCR.
