Evaluating the efficacy of hinged elbow braces in reducing passive valgus forces after ulnar collateral ligament injury A biomechanical study
This biomechanical study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a hinged elbow orthosis in reducing passive valgus forces following medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries of the elbow joint. The hypothesis tested was that a hinged elbow orthosis reduces these passive valgus forces.
Analysis of the therapeutic efficacy of arthroscopic repair of the subscapularis tendon combined with coracoplasty
The aim of this study was to analyze the outcomes of arthroscopic subscapularis tendon repair combined with coracoplasty in the treatment. The study involved 80 patients (46 males, 34 females; aged 33 to 73 years), who underwent arthroscopic repair for subscapularis tears (type I, II, and III) presenting symptoms of anterior shoulder pain and tenderness.
Latarjet procedure may be reliable in stabilizing shoulder dislocation with bone loss
The Latarjet procedure may be warranted for treatment of patients with recurrent instability or larger bone loss. However, surgeons should be cautious not to cause iatrogenic problems with the procedure.
Rotator Cuff Tear: Warning Signs and the Healing Process
A rotator cuff tear is marked by damage to one (or more) of the four tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. Warning signs of a torn rotator cuff are typically felt in the shoulder area. Both partial rotator cuff tears and complete, full-thickness rotator cuff tears (FTRCTs) can make arm movements difficult and cause sharp pain or a dull ache in the shoulder that worsens at night.
