Nerve growth factor is sufficient to cause multiple osteoarthritis‐relevant pathological features in naïve murine knee joints

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Nerve growth factor (NGF), a key mediator of pain, is increased in osteoarthritic (OA) joints. Antibodies against NGF show analgesic effects in painful knee OA, but clinical development was stopped due to side‐effects in the joints. Knowledge about the biological effects of NGF on joint tissues is limited.

Arthroscopic Anterior and Posterior Glenohumeral Capsular Augmentation With Gracilis Allograft

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Multidirectional instability in patients with connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome (EDS) is difficult to treat due to poor tissue quality and frequent failure of standard repairs. We describe an arthroscopic technique using gracilis tendon allografts to perform an anterior and posterior capsular augmentation in the ...

Arthroscopic‐Assisted Triple‐Bundle Reconstruction for Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This article describes a practical technique for treating acute and chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocations. With the aid of intraoperative arthroscopy, tunnels were drilled on the clavicle and coracoid process, and Tightrope and Endobutton devices were introduced to anatomically reconstruct the conoid and trapezoid ligaments ...

Acromial Osteotomy for Dynamic Posterior Shoulder Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Posterior shoulder instability is less prevalent than anterior instability but shows a rising incidence, particularly among young and active individuals. Diagnosis is often challenging due to nonspecific symptoms, leading to delays and underestimation of prevalence. Its etiology is multifactorial, including traumatic events, iatrogenic causes,

Arthroscopic Lateral Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Tendon Graft in High‐Grade Atraumatic Posterolateral Rotatory Instability in Elbows

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Lateral collateral ligament imbrication has been reported to yield good results in patients with atraumatic posterolateral rotatory instability who do not respond to conservative treatment. In cases of high‐grade instability, however, achieving adequate ligament tension can be difficult, and excessive tightening often contributes to ...
