The average pain trajectories after shoulder surgery vary with different analgesic interventions, according to research presented at the 49th Annual Regional Anesthesiology and Acute Pain Medicine Meeting, held from March 21 to 23 in San Diego.

A common practice of shoulder surgeons may be impairing the success of rotator cuff surgery, a new study from orthopedic scientists and biomedical engineers at Columbia University suggests. The work is published in the journal Science Translational Medicine.

A new study has provided valuable insights into the ongoing debate surrounding two types of shoulder replacement surgery: reverse total shoulder replacement and anatomical total shoulder replacement as a treatment for patients with osteoarthritis.

Patients with femoral fractures who underwent total hip arthroplasty with lateral, posterior or anterior approaches had similar outcomes.

A prospective cohort of patients had return to sport rates up to 80%.

Patient outcome scores 6 months after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement were significantly associated with 10-year outcomes and conversion to total hip arthroplasty, according to presented results.

Arthroscopic fractional lengthening of the iliopsoas tendon was associated with positive outcomes following hip arthroplasty for tendonitis.

Progressive resistance training (PRT) is not superior to neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) for improving functional performance in patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA), according to a study published online April 9 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

Scientists have gathered a body of evidence about mortality outcomes in patients over 50, but survival rates following bone fractures are not often included in the statistics available to patients or caregivers. The aim of this current real-world population-based study of close to 100,000 subjects w...

A collaboration between the University of Oxford and University of Leeds shows that the tests currently used by doctors can be unreliable. Using data ...
