The fixation method of syndesmotic injuries in ankle fractures remains controversial. The goal of the study was to compare radiographic and clinical outcomes between anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL) anatomical repair with syndesmosis screw fixation in syndesmotic injuries.

Based on our experiences, we found that a kind of elbow injury is characterized by an olecranon fracture accompanied by elbow joint posterior dislocation with the proximal radioulnar joint intact. The aim of this study was to better define this kind of severe elbow instability, which has not been pr...

Few studies have retrospectively analyzed the relationship between joint range of motion (ROM) and muscle flexibility and shoulder and elbow throwing injuries in a large number of elementary school baseball players. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively identify the physical factors relat...

Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has become an increasingly popular treatment option for proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) in the elderly. There is however contradictory evidence on the impact of timing of RSA on patient outcomes. It remains unclear if poor results after initial non-surgical or s...

In order to achieve clear margins of rare malignant clavicular neoplasms, claviculectomy may become necessary. This study aimed at reviewing clinical, functional and oncological outcome following partial or total claviculectomy without reconstruction.

Partial tears of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are a diagnostic and management challenge. There is ongoing discussion and debate about the ideal ma...

To systematically review the literature in order to compare the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), and hyaluronic acid (HA) injections for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Restoration of joint-line position and deformity correction remain important tenets for preserving stability and function after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We sought to characterize the role of posterior osteophytes in the correction of alignment deformity during TKA.

As instability continues to be a burden post total hip arthroplasty (THA), there has been a controversial discussion on the ideal implant choice. We report here the outcomes of a modern constrained acetabular liner (CAL) system in primary and revision THA at an average follow up of 2.4 years.

Short cementless stems in total hip arthroplasty have gained increasing popularity, yet on-going studies of many of these implants are lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum 5 year clinical and radiological results of a short, highly porous single tapered-wedge cementless femoral...
