Translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and psychometric analysis of the Indonesian version of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES), patient self-report section.

Purpose: To translate the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon (ASES) score into Indonesian and to assess its psychometric properties.

Materials And Methods: The ASES score was translated into Indonesian following the Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines. Next, the validity and reliability of the Indonesia-ASES (I-ASES) were investigated.

Functional Outcomes Following Interposition Elbow Arthroplasty Using Fascia Lata Graft for Post-Traumatic Elbow Osteoarthritis Without Ligament Reconstruction: A Minimum 3-Year Follow-Up Study.

Purpose: Elbow osteoarthritis is a debilitating disease for patients. Surgical options are to be considered when conservative management becomes unsatisfactory. Total elbow arthroplasty is an effective surgical option for patients older than 65 years and those with a sedentary lifestyle.

Gigantic aneurysmal bone cyst of the scapula in children treated with left total scapulectomy and humeral suspension: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign, rapidly growing, osteolytic and could have hemorrhagic lesion. This cyst mostly occurs in females under 20 years old and is located predominantly in the metaphysis of long bones, followed by the pelvis and spine. ABC of the scapula is a rare case, and their treatment still remains controversial.

Intratendinous ganglion cyst of extensor indicis propius tendon: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: The intratendinous ganglion cyst is an extremely rare entity. Thus, the global incidence has not been reported yet. The literature search showed scarce case reports and none has reported its occurrence in extensor indicis propius (EIP) tendon.

Three-dimensional morphometric analysis of glenoid in the Indonesian population and its clinical significance.

Background: Understanding glenoid morphometry is important in shoulder prosthetic replacement surgery. In total and reverse shoulder arthroplasty, the size of the implants has to be determined according to the morphometry of the shoulder. However, there has been no known data on glenoid morphometry in the Indonesian population.

Chronically unreduced elbow dislocation treated with box-loop ligament reconstruction: The first case series.

Objectives: Describing our initial experience of performing box-loop ligament reconstruction in patients with chronically unreduced elbow dislocation.

Design: Retrospective review.

Setting: One tertiary referral centre.

Isolated coronoid fracture: Assessment by magnetic resonance imaging for concomitant injuries.

Background: Ligamentous injury associated with isolated coronoid fracture had been sparingly reported. Concealed or unclear fractures and ligamentous or articular cartilage lesions are promptly acknowledged by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) but cannot be entirely pictured in regular radiological assessments. In isolated coronoid fracture, the fragment size is very small and due to the complex anatomy surrounding the coronoid radiographic imaging may not be sufficient.

Radiographic landmark for humeral head rotation: a new radiographic landmark for humeral fracture fixation.

Background: There is no definite radiographic landmark in plain radiographs for proximal humeral rotation, which is an important parameter for avoiding rotational malalignment during fracture fixation. Here, we used radiographic images of cadaveric humeri to determine whether the landmark of the crest of lesser tuberosity (CoLT) in plain radiographs could be used to determine humeral rotation.

Methods: Twenty adult cadaveric humeri were collected and seven consecutive radiographic anteroposterior views (45°, 30°, 15° internal rotation; neutral rotation; and 15°, 30°, 45° external rotation) were obtained for each specimen.

Surgical release of the first extensor compartment for refractory de Quervain's tenosynovitis: surgical findings and functional evaluation using DASH scores.

Background: Few studies have evaluated surgical outcomes in patients with refractory de Quervain's disease using validated outcome measures. We assessed the clinical outcomes of dorsal release of the first extensor compartment for the treatment of de Quervain's disease using the disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score.

Methods: From October 2003 to May 2009, we retrospectively evaluated 33 patients (3 men and 30 women) who underwent surgical treatment for de Quervain's disease.

Musicians' medicine: musculoskeletal problems in string players.

There is increasing attention to medical problems of musicians. Many studies find a high prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders in musicians, ranging from 73.4% to 87.

Perioperative morbidity and mortality of total hip replacement in liver transplant recipients: a 7-year single-center experience.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate perioperative mortality and morbidity after total hip replacement in liver transplant recipients and suggesting safety guidelines.

Background: Hip replacement surgery is one of the most common elective surgeries even for organ transplant recipients. However, there is a paucity of literature addressing the morbidity and complications of hip replacement surgery for liver transplant recipients.

Locking plate for proximal humeral fracture in the elderly population: serial change of neck shaft angle.

Background: We conducted this radiographic study in the elderly population with proximal humeral fracture aiming to evaluate 1) the serial changes of neck-shaft angle after locking plate fixation and 2) find relationship between change in neck shaft angle and various factors such as age, fracture pattern, severity of osteoporosis, medial support and initial reduction angle.

Methods: Twenty-five patients who underwent surgical treatment for proximal humeral fracture with locking plate between September 2008 and August 2010 are included. True anteroposterior and axillary lateral radiographs were made postoperatively and at each follow-up visit.
