[Early-term effectiveness of Latarjet procedure by coracoid osteotomy with preserving coracoacromial ligament for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation].

Objective: To evaluate the early-term effectiveness of Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons fixation for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation by coracoid osteotomy with preserving coracoacromial ligament.

Methods: Between January 2021 and June 2023, 19 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations were treated by arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons fixation, all of which underwent coracoid osteotomy with preserving the coracoacromial ligament. There were 11 males and 8 females, with an average age of 23.

Clinical outcomes following direct anterior approach during total hip arthroplasty without hip extension: a retrospective comparative study.

Background: Traditional total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the direct anterior approach (DAA) requires a hip extension. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing THA with DAA using either the no hip extension (NHE) or the traditional hip extension (THE) strategy.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of demographics, clinical and radiological outcomes, and occurrence of complications was performed using data from 123 patients treated between January 2020 and November 2021.

[Research on Runx2 gene induced differentiation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells into ligament fibroblasts and promotion of tendon-bone healing in rabbits].

Objective: To investigate whether the Runx2 gene can induce the differentiation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) to ligament fibroblasts and promote the tendon-bone healing in rabbits.

Methods: hAMSCs were isolated from the placentas voluntarily donated from healthy parturients and passaged, and then identified by flow cytometric identification. Adenoviral vectors carrying Runx2 gene (Ad-Runx2) and empty vector adenovirus (Ad-NC) were constructed and viral titer assay; then, the 3rd generation hAMSCs were transfected with Ad-Runx2 (Ad-Runx2 group) or Ad-NC (Ad-NC group).

[Short-term effectiveness of modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation].

Objective: To evaluate the short-term effectiveness of modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.

Methods: Between January 2019 and November 2020, 36 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation were treated by modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons. There were 26 males and 10 females, with an average age of 27.

[Short-term effectiveness of high tibial osteotomy combined with arthroscopic surgery for knee varus arthritis and the results of secondary arthroscopic exploration].

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of high tibial osteotomy (HTO) combined with arthroscopic surgery to treat medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and secondary arthroscopic exploration to evaluate the outcome of cartilage and meniscus.

Methods: A clinical data of 57 patients with medial compartment KOA with varus deformity of lower extremities admitted between August 2014 and October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 23 males and 34 females with an average age of 51.

[Study on reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament with autologous peroneus longus tendon under arthroscopy].

Objective: To discuss the effectiveness of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction with autologous peroneus longus tendon under arthroscopy.

Methods: Between January 2016 and December 2018, 46 patients with PCL injuries were enrolled. There were 34 males and 12 females, with an average age of 40.
