Editorial Commentary: Estrogen Influences Shoulder Health

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Estrogen influences bone mineral density, muscle quality and quantity, and collagen synthesis, rotator cuff tearing, worse outcomes after rotator cuff repair, hyperlaxity, and adhesive capsulitis. In this commentary, we discuss the potential explanations for the highly significant associations between hormonal systemic birth control and a ...

Systemic Hormonal Contraceptive Use Is Associated With Greater Odds of Rotator Cuff Tears, Shoulder Instability, Dislocation, and Other Shoulder Pathologies: A Propensity Matched Epidemiological Study

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate whether systemic estrogen‐only, progestin‐only, or combined hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are associated with increased risk of shoulder pathologies in reproductive‐age females. Methods A retrospective cohort study of female patients presenting to clinic from 2013 to 2020 and aged 13‐50 with 5 years of follow‐up was conducted using ...

The Diagnostic Challenges of the Digitation Sign for Subscapularis Tears: Impact of Observer Expertise

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate preoperative systematic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation of subscapularis (SSC) lesions using the digitation sign by medical practitioners with various levels of experience. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent arthroscopy‐assisted rotator cuff repair between April 2023 and September

Pediatric Climbers Experience More Upper Extremity Injuries, Geriatric Climbers More Lower Extremity Injuries, and Increased Shoulder Trauma Associated With Male Individuals in an Emergency Department Analysis of Rock Climbing–Associated Musculoskeletal Injuries

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To analyze epidemiologic trends, injury prevalence, and mechanisms of injury associated with rock climbing. Methods The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System, a public emergency department database, was queried for rock climbing–related injuries from 2014 to 2023. Data extracted included demographics, anatomic region injured, diagnosis,

Multicentre randomised controlled trial comparing Bankart repair with remplissage and Latarjet procedure in shoulder instability with subcritical bone loss (STABLE): study protocol

open access: yesBMJ Open
Introduction Recurrent shoulder dislocations often cause attrition of the labrum and progressive loss of the anterior bony contour of the glenoid. Treatment options for this pathology involve either soft tissue repair or bony augmentation procedure.

Arthroscopic‐Assisted Suture Tape–Reinforced Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Repair and Distal Radioulnar Ligament Augmentation Using a Modified Adams‐Berger Technique

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Distal radioulnar joint instability secondary to triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury remains a major challenge in wrist surgery. Traditional tendon graft–based reconstruction techniques, such as the Adams‐Berger procedure, though effective, require extensive soft tissue dissection and tendon harvesting, resulting in significant ...

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 ...

A Three-dimensional Printed Low-cost Anterior Shoulder Dislocation Model for Ultrasound-guided Injection Training. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anterior shoulder dislocations are the most common, large joint dislocations that present to the emergency department (ED). Numerous studies support the use of intraarticular local anesthetic injections for the safe, effective, and time-saving reduction ...
