Surgical Treatment of a Symptomatic Diaphyseal Tibiofibular Synostosis in a Professional Rugby Player: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Context: Diaphyseal tibiofibular synostosis (DTS) is a rare pathology with unknown origin especially occurring in intensive sport athletes. No therapeutic guideline has been well established in the literature.

Case Presentation: A rare case of DTS in a 26-year-old professional rugby player has been described.

Return to Sport After Primary and Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Prospective Comparative Study of 552 Patients From the FAST Cohort.

Background: Few studies have reported the return-to-sport rate at 1-year follow-up after primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

Purpose: To compare the return-to-sport rate 1 year after primary and revision ACL reconstruction in the same cohort according to 2 modalities: any kind of sport and the patient's usual sport at the same level as before the injury.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

The split portal: Description of a new accessory posterior portal for arthroscopic shoulder instability procedures.

Purpose: Open approach to the posterior shoulder during bone block for posterior shoulder instability is challenging. Anatomical study was performed to identify landmarks of a portal, avoiding soft tissue damage, between the infraspinatus (IS) and teres minor (TM) muscles and distant from the supra-scapular nerve (SSN) for arthroscopic shoulder bone block.

Methods: Eight fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulder specimens were used.

The risk of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty for fractures is decreased with retentive cups.

Purpose: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been efficacious for treating hip fractures in healthy older patients. However, in those patients with fractures a widely variable prevalence of dislocation has been reported, partly because of varying durations of follow up for this specific end-point. The purpose of the present study was to determine the cumulative risk of dislocation in these patients with fractures and to investigate if retentive cups decrease the risk of dislocation.
