Background: Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) with a nonspherical humeral head component and inlay glenoid is a bone preserving treatment for glenohumeral arthritis. This study aims to describe minimum two year patient reported outcomes, patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) achievement, and complications following TSA with this prosthesis.

Methods: A retrospective review of patients undergoing TSA with nonspherical humeral head and inlay glenoid was performed.

Background: Livestock markets are critical intermediaries in the movement of cattle and sheep between herds and to abattoirs. Disease prevention strategies promoting Cleansing & Disinfection (C&D) of vehicles moving animals from markets are in place in Scotland to reduce the risk of widespread transmission of pathogens within the livestock industry. However, little is known about how market users implement C&D on their vehicles and how these may differ between sectors of the industry.

Article Synopsis
  • Despite advancements in osteosynthesis, fracture non-union is still a significant challenge in orthopaedic surgery, where improving biological strategies for fracture healing is essential.
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has garnered interest in enhancing bone and soft tissue healing due to its ease of application from lab research to clinical settings.
  • This review highlights the variability in PRP preparation and application, concluding that while routine use for fracture healing is not yet supported, standardizing PRP treatments and conducting further studies are necessary for better outcomes.
