The petrotympanic canal (Huguier canal): Evolutionary, anatomical, and medical perspectives

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The petrotympanic canal, traditionally referred to as Civinini's or Huguier's canal, represents an anatomical passage connecting the middle ear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Despite its early description, its structural complexity and functional significance have often been underestimated. In this study, we combined historical, anatomical,

Cable Reinforcement Combined With Biologic Tuberoplasty Restores Muscle Forces and Scapular Strain in an Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tear Model: A Cadaveric Study

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate the biomechanical impact of an irreparable rotator cuff tear and compare the isolated and combined effects of rotator cable reconstruction (CR) and biologic tuberoplasty (BioTB). Methods Eight cadaveric shoulders were tested using an ex vivo dynamic shoulder simulator in forward flexion (FF) and scapular plane abduction (SPA ...

More Improved Postoperative Range‐of‐Motion Retention After Arthroscopic Lysis of Adhesions After Total Knee Arthroplasty Is Associated With Arthroscopic Fellowship‐Trained Compared With Nonfellowship‐Trained Surgeons

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To describe whether subspecialty training, specifically arthroscopic fellowship training, influences intraoperative range‐of‐motion (ROM) gains, postoperative ROM retention, and lysis of adhesions (LOA) complication rates. Methods Between August 1989 and May 2025, all patients who underwent arthroscopic LOA for stiffness after primary total ...
