PURPOSE: This study was performed to evaluate the results of arthroscopic Bankart repair, by use of Knotless or BioKnotless suture anchors (DePuy Mitek, Raynham, MA), for traumatic anterior shoulder instability. METHODS: We performed a retrospective evaluation of 73 consecutive patients with traumatic anterior instability of the shoulder treated with arthroscopic Bankart repair by use of metallic Knotless or BioKnotless suture anchors. No additional capsular plication, thermal modification, or interval closure was performed in any patient. The senior author performed all procedures. Independe

Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis with a locking compression plate is superior to open reduction and internal fixation in the management of the proximal humerus fractures.

BACKGROUND: The use of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) via anterolateral deltoid splitting has good outcomes in the management of proximal humerus fractures. While using this approach has several advantages, including minimal soft tissue disruption, preservation of natural biology and minimal blood loss, there is an increased risk for axillary nerve damage. This study compared the advantages and clinical and radiological outcomes of MIPO or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in patients with proximal humerus fractures. METHODS: A matched-pair analysis was performed, an

Minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis for proximal humeral shaft fractures with the PHILOS through the deltopectoral approach.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical outcomes and complications following minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) with the proximal humeral internal locking system (PHILOS) for treating proximal humeral shaft fracture through the deltopectoral approach. METHODS: Between November 2008 and March 2010, 74 patients with unilateral proximal humeral shaft fractures were treated using the MIPO technique with the PHILOS through the deltopectoral approach. Patients received an average follow-up of 16.9 (range, 12-24) months, and the final follow-up included anteroposterior an

Management of skeletal metastases: An orthopaedic surgeon's guide.

Skeletal metastasis is a common cause of severe morbidity, reduction in quality of life (QOL) and often early mortality. Its prevalence is rising due to a higher rate of diagnosis, better systemic treatment, longer lives with the disease and higher disease burden rate. As people with cancer live longer and with rising sensitivity of body imaging and surveillance, the incidence of pathological fracture, metastatic epidural cord compression is rising and constitutes a challenge for the orthopedic surgeon to maintain their QOL. Metastatic disease is no longer a death sentence condemning patients

Moderating effects of immunosuppressive medications and risk factors for post-operative joint infection following total joint arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis.

OBJECTIVE: Inconclusive findings about infection risks, importantly the use of immunosuppressive medications in patients who have undergone large-joint total joint arthroplasty, challenge efforts to provide evidence-based perioperative total joint arthroplasty recommendations to improve surgical outcomes. Thus, the aim of this study was to describe risk factors for developing a post-operative infection in patients undergoing TJA of a large joint (total hip arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty, or total shoulder arthroplasty) by identifying clinical and demographic factors, including the use o

Superior clavicle plating using low-profile, precontoured locking plates has low complication and low hardware removal rate.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to describe our experience using superiorly applied low-profile locking plates for the operative fixation of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures (MCFs). STUDY DESIGN: This was a retrospective analysis performed at an academic institution. RESULTS: Eighty-three patients who presented with displaced, shortened MCFs were treated operatively by a single surgeon at our institution over a 10-year period. All patients received a precontoured low-profile locking plate applied in the superior position. A displaced midshaft clavicle fracture was fixed operati

What Are the Long-term Outcomes of Locking Plates for Nonosteoporotic Three-part and Four-part Proximal Humeral Fractures With a Minimum 10-year Follow-up Period?

BACKGROUND: Proximal humeral fractures (PHFs) often occur in elderly individuals who experience low-energy falls. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the proximal humerus is typically performed in young, active patients because of their good bone quality and high functional demands. Although good short-term results have been reported after ORIF in young patients, few studies have specifically evaluated long-term outcomes. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: (1) What are the long-term clinical outcomes scores and (2) radiologic outcomes of nonosteoporotic three-part and four-part PHFs treated with

Simple radiographic assessment of bone quality is associated with loss of surgical fixation in patients with proximal humeral fractures.

AIM: This study aimed to determine if the ratio of cortical thickness to shaft diameter of the humerus, as measured on a simple anterior-posterior shoulder radiograph, is associated with surgical fixation failure. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 64 consecutive fractures in 63 patients (mean age 66.1 years, range 35-90) operated with surgical fixation between March 2011 and July 2014 using PERI-LOC locking plate and screws (Smith and Nephew, UK) were identified. Predictors of bone quality were measured from preoperative radiographs, including ratio of the medial cortex to shaft diameter (medial cortical

Incidence and economic burden of prosthetic joint infections in a university hospital: A report from a middle-income country.

In this study, we aimed to evaluate the incidence and economic burden of prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) in a university hospital in a middle-income country. Surveillance data between April 2011 and April 2013 in the Orthopedic Surgery Department was evaluated. Patients (>16 years old) who had primary arthroplasty in Erciyes University were included in the study, and patients with preoperative infection were excluded. Patients were followed up during their stay in the hospital and during readmission to the hospital for PJI by a trained Infection Control Nurse. During the study period, 670 p

Reconstruction of massive rotator cuff lesions with a synthetic interposition graft: a prospective study of 41 patients.

In the present prospective study, we report about our experience with massive rotator cuff tears treated by means of a non-resorbable transosseously fixated patch combined with subacromial decompression. Forty-one patients were followed clinically and radiographically for a mean duration of 43 months. Their mean preoperative Constant and Murley score improved (P<0.001) from 25.7 preoperatively to 72.1 postoperatively. Substantial pain relief and improvement in the performance of activities of daily living were obtained. Anatomically, the repair resulted in a mean acromiohumeral interval of 8.6

Elbow hemiarthroplasty with a 3D-printed prosthesis for distal humeral bone defects after tumor excision: a case report.

INTRODUCTION: The distal humerus is a rare site for primary and metastatic bone tumors. Due to the scarcity of cases and lack of standardized surgical strategies, it is often difficult for surgeons to choose the right choice. The application of a 3D-printed prosthesis with hemiarthroplasty for the treatment of the distal humerus after tumor resection can be a very effective option. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a clinical case of a 3D-printed distal humeral prosthesis for the treatment of bone defects caused by metastatic bone tumors. The preoperative evaluation was aggressively performed, an

Risk factors for revision surgery after humeral head replacement: 1,431 shoulders over 3 decades.

HYPOTHESIS: To assess the long-term risk of revision surgery and its predictors after humeral head replacement (HHR). METHODS: We used prospectively collected data from the Mayo Clinic Total Joint Registry and other institutional electronic databases. Revision-free survival for HHR at 5, 10, and 20 years was calculated by use of Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. We used univariate and multivariate-adjusted Cox regression analyses to examine the association of age, gender, body mass index (BMI), comorbidity assessed by Deyo-Charlson index, American Society of Anesthesiologists class, implant fix

Surgical treatment of Neer Group VI proximal humeral fractures: retrospective comparison of PHILOS® and hemiarthroplasty.

BACKGROUND: Neer Group VI proximal humeral fractures often are related to persistent disability despite surgical treatment. We retrospectively compared the outcome after open reduction and internal fixation with the PHILOS(®) plate or primary hemiarthroplasty in patients with Neer Group VI fractures focusing on complications, shoulder function, health-related quality of life (SF-36), and potential risk factors for complications. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: The aim of this study was to compare the PHILOS(®) plate with primary hemiarthroplasty for treatment of specific Neer Group VI fractures. We asked

Second generation locked plating of proximal humerus fractures--a prospective multicentre observational study.

Surgical treatment of most displaced proximal humerus fractures is challenging due to osteoporosis. Locking plates are intended to provide superior mechanical stability. In a prospective multicentre study 131 patients were treated with second generation locked plating (NCB-PH, Zimmer, Inc.). The open procedure (n = 78) was performed using a deltopectoral approach; the minimally invasive technique (n = 53) involved percutaneous reduction and an anterolateral deltoid split approach. Clinical and radiological follow-up was obtained. Improvement in function (ROM) was statistically significant. Fra

[Central-medullary nailing of proximal humerus fractures using T2 nails. A retrospective study of 38 cases].

The intramedullary nailing of humerus has emerged as one of the treatments of reference for proximal fractures. We have reviewed 38 patients aged 64.2 on average with a mean follow of 18 months. The functional scores used were the Constant and Murley's score as well as the DASH self-administered quality of life questionnaire. Radiological criteria have been analyzed, namely the cephalic angle noted alphaF and the presence of any osteolysis of the major tuberosity. Patients were grouped by type of fracture, according to Neer's classification, with nine cases in Neer 2 group, 19 in Neer 3 group,

A preformed antibiotic-loaded spacer for treatment for septic arthritis of the shoulder.

BACKGROUND: Total shoulder arthroplasty infections are rare, depending on the use of antibiotic prophylaxis, the local blood supply, the axial load gradient and the proximal location of the shoulder. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of treatment for infections in total shoulder arthroplasty and septic arthritis using a preformed antibiotic-loaded spacer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven shoulders in as many patients were treated for infected arthroplasty or septic arthritis without previous surgery. A preformed antibiotic-loaded spacer was always applied. Patients were evalua

Minimally invasive polyaxial locking plate fixation of proximal humeral fractures: a prospective study.

BACKGROUND: The surgical treatment for displaced humeral head fractures overlooks a broad variety of surgical techniques and implant systems. A standard operative procedure has not yet been established. In this article, we report our experience with a second-generation locking plate for the humeral head fracture that is applied in a standardized nine-step minimally invasive surgical technique (MIS). METHODS: In a prospective study from May 2008 until November 2009, a cohort of 79 patients with 80 proximal humerus fractures were operated in a MIS procedure using a polyaxial locking plate. Foll
