Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty with a nonspherical humeral head and inlay glenoid: 90-day complication profile in the inpatient versus outpatient setting.

Background: Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) with a nonspherical humeral head component and inlay glenoid is a successful bone-preserving treatment for glenohumeral arthritis. This study aimed to describe the 90-day complication profile of TSA with this prosthesis and compare major and minor complication and readmission rates between inpatient- and outpatient-procedure patients.

Methods: A retrospective review was performed of a consecutive cohort of patients undergoing TSA with a nonspherical humeral head and inlay glenoid in the inpatient and outpatient settings by a single surgeon between 2017 and 2022.

Variation in radial head fracture treatment recommendations in terrible triad injuries is not influenced by viewing two-dimensional computed tomography.

Background: We analyzed association between viewing two-dimensional computed tomography (2D CT) images in addition to radiographs with radial head treatment recommendations after accounting for patient and surgeon factors in a survey-based experiment.

Methods: One hundred and fifty-four surgeons reviewed 15 patient scenarios with terrible triad fracture dislocations of the elbow. Surgeons were randomized to view either radiographs only or radiographs and 2D CT images.

Measurement of the gluteal compartment pressures: A cadaveric study describing safety and reproducibility of two methods.

Introduction: Gluteal compartment syndrome is an uncommon entity and physicians may use intracompartmental pressure measurements for confirmation of the clinical diagnosis, or in cases where the physical exam is indeterminate. However, there is a paucity of literature describing a safe and reproducible technique to measure gluteal intracompartmental pressures during the diagnosis of gluteal compartment syndrome. The purpose of this cadaveric study is to evaluate the sole previous technique described in the literature to measure gluteal intracompartmental pressures and provide a modified technique which can be safely and reliably utilized clinically.
