Heterotopic ossification of the shoulder after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Heterotopic ossification (HO) often arises in response to trauma, prior surgical procedures, neurological injuries, or burns. However, its presentation as a complication of shoulder arthroscopy is uncommon and can sometimes lead to functional impairment. In our study, we report a case of HO complicating rotator cuff repair, along with details of the surgical treatment and subsequent progression.

Surgical management of neck of femur fractures in patients younger than sixty-five years: a comparative study of three fixation methods.

Purpose: Several surgical implants have been used for the treatment of neck of femur fracture (NOF) in younger patients such as dynamic hip screw (DHS) and cannulated compression screw. However, the superiority of one or another osteosynthesis device remains a matter of debate. The aim of this work is to evaluate and compare three fixation modalities: Cannulated Hip Screws (CHS), DHS and DHS associated to anti-rotating screw for surgical treatment of femoral neck fracture in young adults.
