Results of Arthroscopic Revision Rotator Cuff Repair for Failed Open or Arthroscopic Repair: A Prospective Multicenter Study on 100 Cases
To investigate results after arthroscopic revision RCR. We hypothesized that (1) arthroscopic revision RCR would lead to improved outcomes, (2) the clinical results would be dependent on tendon integrity and (3) tear pattern, tendon involvement, and repair technique would influence clinical and structural results.
How to thaw a frozen shoulder
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, occurs when inflammation and scar tissue invade the shoulder joint. It can start with inflammation of the joint that leads to scarring, or in some cases the scarring happens with little inflammation.
Return to play after UCL reconstruction with concurrent posterior compartment decompression
Medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries and posterior elbow impingement commonly effect throwing athletes. Surgical intervention for each of these pathologies individually has been demonstrated to be successful with high return to play rates. Our purpose is to report return to play rates for patients treated by our senior author with concurrent UCL reconstruction and arthroscopic posterior débridement.
How to Unfreeze Painful Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder is a common and painful condition. Luckily, there are easy stretches that you can try to ease your pain.
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.
