Background: Advanced knee osteoarthritis (KOA) impacts both knees, resulting in pain, deformity, and substantial restrictions in joint mobility.
Objective: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of combining arthroscopic debridement with functional exercise in treating advanced KOA.
Methods: A total of 296 patients diagnosed with advanced KOA were divided into two groups: the observation group (n= 152) received arthroscopic debridement combined with functional exercise, while the control group (n= 144) underwent arthroscopic debridement only.
Achieving sufficient attachment of deep rotator cuff tissue to the footprint area on the greater tubercle of the humerus is essential for functional recovery, yet the optimal approach remains uncertain. We introduce a surgical technique for rotator cuff tear repair using a spinal needle to penetrate deep rotator cuff tissue under direct arthroscopic visualization. After trimming the torn edge, an arthroscope is inserted into the joint cavity through a posterior portal, and a hole is drilled into the humeral head cartilage margin using an upper approach, facilitating the implantation of an internal shoulder row nail.

Methods: A total of 56 patients who underwent MWA, MWA combined with I particle implantation, or MWA combined with BAI chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer or metastatic lung cancer from January 2015 to June 2021 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled. Among them, 21 patients were treated with MWA (MWA), 18 with MWA combined with I seed implantation (MWA+I), and 17 with MWA combined with BAI chemotherapy (MWA+BAI).
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture often presents with a tear of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus. There is no clear preference between ACL reconstruction with suture and resection of the meniscus. We aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of ACL reconstruction with suture versus resection in patients presenting with arthroscopic ACL rupture and radial complete tear of the posterior corner of the lateral meniscus.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with osteochondral lesion of talus who were admitted to our hospital from April 2020 to April 2021.
To compare the postoperative effects of arthroscopy for rotator cuff injury with patients in the lateral-lying position (LLP) and beach chair position (BCP), and to identify factors influencing these effects.Data from patients with rotator cuff injuries who underwent shoulder arthroscopy in the LLP (n = 115, 53.24%) or BCP (n = 101, 46.
