The purposes of this systematic review and meta-analysis were to assess clinical outcomes of primary arthroscopic repair for unilateral PSI in all patients, to evaluate clinical outcomes in athletes, and to compare clinical outcomes between contact and overhead athletes.

The InSpace subacromial balloon spacer (Stryker, USA) is indicated for the treatment of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears. The device is placed in the subacromial space with the aim of restoring shoulder function by limiting painful acromiohumeral contact and recentering the superiorly migrated...

A small degree of increased varus laxity in acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) disrupted knees can often be felt on initial examination. Why this ...

In this Technical Note, we propose an approach to improve the existing knee positions using a metal round stool as a foot support. The method aims to reduce reliance on human assistants during knee arthroscopy procedures and restore the natural positioning of leg muscles, potentially improving proce...

The three most commonly reported indications for using hinged-design implants in revision total knee arthroplasty are infection, instability, and aseptic loosening. However, these conditions rarely present in isolation and are often accompanied by additional factors such as pain, stiffness/arthrofib...

The aims of this study were to assess whether delayed admission from the ED influenced mortality risk, length of acute hospital stay, risk of developing delirium and return to domicile for patients presenting with a hip fracture.

Based on the current literature, incorporating robotics into total hip arthroplasty (THA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) does not appear to result in higher complications compared to conventional methods. However, robotic techniques are associated with increa...

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a common condition of the hip that can cause significant damage to the joint, leading to degeneration ...

Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a procedure used to treat patients with hip dysplasia. Current literature reports symptomatic hardware removal (HWR) rates of 13.6% following PAO. No reports have examined the incidence of or factors relating to screw breakage during HWR. This study reports the inci...

Early results of an investigational device exemption clinical trial showed two prodisc C implants may be safe and effective for the treatment of symptomatic cervical disc disease at two levels compared with the Mobi-C implant at 24 months.
