Acute rotator cuff tears

BMJ, 2017
### What you need to know A 45 year old woman falls on ice and injures her shoulder. Assessment at her local hospital reveals bruising only and no bony injury on plain radiographs. Despite ongoing reassurance and participation in a physiotherapy programme for three months, she continues to complain of pain, weakness, and inability to raise her arm ...

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Morphological Analysis of the Latissimus Dorsi Tendon Insertion: Implications for Optimizing Tendon Transfer Surgeries in Rotator Cuff Repair

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Latissimus dorsi (LD) tendon transfer is widely used to treat irreparable rotator cuff tears, particularly in cases with posterosuperior and anterosuperior tear patterns. We conducted a comprehensive anatomical analysis of the attachment of the LD tendon to the humerus, focusing on its morphological patterns and morphometric features, which ...

The Use of a Bio-Inductive Collagen Patch to Supplement Repair of Large and Massive Rotator Cuff Tears Including Revisions: Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes at 2-year Follow Up

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2018
Objectives: Failures of large, massive, and revision rotator cuff repairs is a challenging problem within orthopedics. Poor tendon tissue and vascularity are known causes for failure of rotator cuff repairs.

Arthroscopic repair of large and massive rotator cuff tears—“sandwich augmentation” with the long head of the biceps tendon: a technical note [PDF]

Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow
For most shoulder surgeons, addressing massive rotator cuff tears that have retracted ends poses a significant challenge. This study introduces a technique, termed the “sandwich augmentation technique,” which incorporates the long head of the biceps ...

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 ...

Relationship between the degree of degenerative rotator cuff tear and the thickness of coracoacromial ligament on inferior surface of acromion

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Objective To investigate the coracoacromial ligament thickness measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the inferior surface of the acromion, and to find the correlation between coracoacromial ligament thickness and rotator cuff tear size. Methods

Three in every four systematic reviews and meta‐analyses on concomitant anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and anterolateral complex procedures present at least one type of spin in the abstract

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Spin is a form of bias that misrepresents research findings, potentially influencing clinical decisions and patient care. This meta‐research study evaluates the prevalence and types of spin in abstracts of systematic reviews and meta‐analyses comparing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with and without lateral extra ...

An Arthroscopic Upper Superior Capsule Reconstruction Using a U-Fold Long Head of the Biceps Tendon Autograft for the Treatment of Irreparable Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
We describe an arthroscopic technique utilizing the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) for U-fold reconstruction of the upper articular capsule in treating irreparable massive rotator cuff tears.

All‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone versus all‐suture anchors: No difference in failure rates at three‐follow‐up in a retrospective cohort of 2253 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare mid‐term failure rates of next‐generation all‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone (PEEK) anchors versus all‐suture anchors in a large patient cohort. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference in failure rates between PEEK and all‐suture anchors.
