Mid- to long-term clinical outcomes after press-fit short stem reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

Background: To date, a limited number of studies report mid- to long-term outcomes of press-fit short stem shoulder arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to report and analyze mid- to long-term outcomes in a series of patients that received press-fit short stem reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). The hypothesis was that press-fit short stem RSA would be a safe and effective treatment with satisfactory mid- to long-term outcomes.

[Prevention and child mental health: the ethical issues raised by targeted approaches].

The details of the implementation of early prevention in child mental health in France have been at the heart of a debate between the defenders of a universal approach and the proponents of an approach targeting specific populations. The universal approach draws on various aspects of mother and child care and early childhood care offering considerate and expressive prevention based on a relationship of trust developed over time between professionals, parents and children. The targeted approach is based on the development of programs aimed at identifying vulnerable or at-risk populations.

Mini-invasive nail versus DHS to fix pertrochanteric fractures: a case-control study.

Background: Fixation devices to treat trochanteric fractures belong to two general categories: dynamic hip screw (DHS) type and intramedullary type implants. In spite of possible pitfalls, both are considered valid options. Comparing a sliding screw-plate system (DHS) along a mini-invasive nailing device (BCM nail) with primary insertion of the cephalic screw, sheds light on the debated management of trochanteric fractures.

[Extra-articular elbow arthroscopy].

Extra-articular elbow arthroscopy has to be considered as the evolution of the elbow surgery to a mini invasive endoscopically assisted surgery developed by the recent advance of the elbow arthroscopy. Various pathologies, such as lateral epicondylitis, ulnar nerve entrapment, distal Biceps tendon rupture, synovial cysts, or olecranon bursitis have been treated arthroscopically. Extra-articular pathologies can be treated through an intra-articular endoscopic approach.
