Arthroscopic Sandwich Autografting Technique for Massive Glenoid Bone Defect Using Iliac Crest and Coracoid Process Grafts.

Shoulder joint instability can lead to bone loss on both the glenoid side and the posterior part of the humeral head, known as bipolar bone loss. To restore glenoid defects, bone procedures like the Latarjet operation or free bone block transfer from the iliac crest are the primary options, restoring defects of up to 25% to 30%. However, in some cases, the glenoid defect may exceed 40%.

Learning curve in the arthroscopic Latarjet procedure: An analysis of the first 171 cases.

Background: Arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is accepted as effective and safe. However, it is more likely to be challenging in execution. Therefore, the analysis of the learning curve remains to be worth examination.

A Comparative Analysis Between Conservative Treatment, Arthroscopic Repair, and Biceps Tenodesis in Superior Labral Anterior-Posterior (SLAP) Lesions.

Background "Throwing shoulder" hinders athletes' shoulder functions, causing pain, weakness, and performance reduction due to anatomical, physiological, and biomechanical factors. Anatomical issues include superior labral anterior-posterior (SLAP) injuries, rotator cuff injuries, and glenohumeral instability. Methods This study compared arthroscopic labral repairs in patients under 40 years old with shoulder injuries between 2015 and 2017.

Chronotype and lipid metabolism in Arctic Sojourn Workers.

This study relates answers to the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) from Arctic Sojourn Workers (ASW) of Yamburg Settlement, 68° Latitude North, 75° Longitude East ( = 180; mean age ± SD; range: 49.2 ± 7.8; 25-66 y; 45% women) to Arctic Sojourn Work Experience (ASWE), age and health status.

Technique of Arthroscopic Suprapectoral Tenodesis of the Long Head of the Biceps With Interference Screw.

Tenodesis and tenotomy are the main surgical options to treat different pathologies of the long head of the biceps tendon. Maintaining the functionality of the tendon during tenodesis makes it more preferable surgical option. The consensus on the most advanced tenodesis technique has not been reached.
