Early functional recovery after two-stage surgery with an allogenic bone graft for baseplate loosening in reverse shoulder arthroplasty: a case report.

Objectives: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) for cuff tear arthropathy results in good shoulder function. However, RSA is associated with several complications, including infection, dislocation of the shoulder joint, implant loosening, and axillary nerve palsy. Several problems may also occur on the glenoid side, including bone defects of the glenoid, baseplate loosening, and displacement of the sphere.

Mechanical simulation study of postoperative displacement of trochanteric fractures using the finite element method.

Background: Femoral trochanteric fractures are common among older adults. In the reduction of trochanteric fractures, acquiring the support of the anterior cortex at the fracture site on lateral view immediately after surgery is important. However, even if the cortical support is acquired, postoperative displacement due to the loss of this support often occurs.

Analysis of the Postoperative Displacement of Trochanteric Fractures on Lateral View Radiographs.

Achieving sufficient support of the anterior cortex of the femoral neck is a fundamental goal of the reduction of trochanteric fractures. However, anterior-cortex support is often lost after the fracture reduction. Our aim was to analyze factors contributing to the postoperative displacement of an acceptably reduced trochanteric fracture.
