Unstable Pelvic Fracture Reduction Under Ultrasonographic Control.

Managing acute trauma cases in military and low-resource environments usually requires adapted medicosurgical protocols to achieve best medical results with limited technical capacity. We report a case of unstable pelvic fracture that needed ultrasonographic assessment for closed reduction before external stabilization. In our opinion, ultrasonographic control should be considered as a useful technique for unstable pelvic fracture reduction and an alternative to radiographic control.

Isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair vs. Bankart repair with "remplissage" for anterior shoulder instability with engaging Hill-Sachs lesion: A meta-analysis.

Introduction: Arthroscopic "remplissage" of a Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) associated with a Bankart repair (BR) has been recently introduced as a surgical option to treat chronic anterior shoulder instability. The purpose of this study was to analyze the current literature comparing results of isolated BR versus BR+remplissage in the treatment of anterior shoulder instability with engaging HSL.

Hypothesis: BR+remplissage are superior to isolated BR in the management of anterior shoulder instability with engaging HSL.
