A Novel Patient‐Specific Landmark‐Guided Approach for Intramuscular Botulinum Neurotoxin Injections Into the Rotator Cuff: A Cadaveric Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofascial pain syndrome (MFPS) causes chronic shoulder pain. Supraspinatus and infraspinatus, rotator cuff muscles innervated by the suprascapular nerve, are commonly affected. Intramuscular botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injections near motor points (i.e., visible nerve branch entry sites used as a proxy for motor endplates) are an effective ...

Chronic Morel‐Lavallée Lesion Treated With Percutaneous Ultrasonic Debridement

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case describes the use of Tenex in a 68‐year‐old female with a 10‐year history of a Morel‐Lavallée lesion. The device uses high‐frequency ultrasonic waves that percutaneously debride dystrophic musculoskeletal calcifications. Percutaneous ultrasonic debridement is a minimally invasive intervention to be considered for managing symptoms associated ...

Clinical measurements versus patient-reported outcomes: analysis of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons physician assessment in patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. [PDF]

, 2018
BackgroundThe American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score is composed of a patient-reported portion and a physician assessment. Although the patient-reported score is frequently used to assess postoperative outcomes after shoulder arthroplasty, no ...

Exercise Initiation After Surgical Reconstruction for Rat Rotator Cuff Injury Affects Tendon Healing and Muscle Preservation

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
Wistar rats underwent supraspinatus tendon tear and reconstruction. Then, rats were divided into Cage activity, Immobilization, Immobilization + Early exercise, and Immobilization + Delayed exercise groups. After 3 and 6 weeks of surgery, histological and biomechanical analyses were performed.

ARC (Australian Rotator Cuff) trial: study protocol for a randomised placebo-controlled trial comparing rotator cuff repair to no repair during arthroscopic shoulder surgery for people with shoulder pain and non-acute rotator cuff tears

Trials
Background Degenerative rotator cuff tears are common and are often treated with surgical repair. Randomised trials have not shown a clear advantage to surgery over non-surgical treatment, but there have been no published placebo-controlled trials ...

Treatment Strategy for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears

Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery, 2018
Recently, patients with shoulder pain have increased rapidly. Of all shoulder disorders, rotator cuff tears (RCTs) are most prevalent in the middle-aged and older adults, which is the primary reason for shoulder surgery in the population.

Ciprofloxacin Treatment in Juvenile Mice Involves Neuronal Activation and Mimics Physical Features of Human Disease

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tendinopathy is a complex, painful condition that affects up to 5% of the general population in their lifetime. Antibiotic treatment with fluoroquinolones has been associated with the onset of tendinopathy and tendon rupture. The mechanisms behind fluoroquinolone induced tendinopathy remain unclear. To probe activation of potentially causative

Restoring the Anteroposterior Shoulder Force Couple: Arthroscopic-Assisted Lower Trapezius Tendon Transfer With Partially Augmented Rotator Cuff Repair for Irreparable Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
Lower trapezius transfer presents a highly encouraging therapeutic approach for addressing posterosuperior irreparable massive rotator cuff tears. Based on studies on the balance of force couples of the rotator cuff, more scholars believe that attention ...

Rotator cuff tear: A detailed update

Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology, 2015
Rotator cuff tear has been a known entity for orthopaedic surgeons for more than two hundred years. Although the exact pathogenesis is controversial, a combination of intrinsic factors proposed by Codman and extrinsic factors theorized by Neer is likely ...
