Background: The objective of this study is to examine the association between special tests for subscapularis tears and both pain and tear severity.
Methods: Nine hundred and two patients (145 with isolated lesions and 757 with combined lesions) diagnosed with arthroscopically confirmed subscapularis tears between 2010 and 2022. Subscapularis tear severity was classified according to Lafosse classification type I, II, III and IV.
Purpose: To investigate the clinical outcomes of patients treated with isolated subscapularis tear repair and biceps tenodesis using a single anchor.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with subscapularis tear and who underwent arthroscopic surgery by a single surgeon between February 2017 and January 2022 were evaluated retrospectively. Inclusion criteria were patients who underwent repair of isolated subscapularis tear along with tenodesis for long head of the biceps tendon pathologies such as SLAP lesion, instability, partial tear, or tenosynovitis, with a minimum follow-up of 24 months.
Does the Extent of Tear Influence Pseudoparesis in Patients With Isolated Subscapularis Tears?

Article Synopsis
- Surgeons often link pseudoparesis, limited shoulder movement, to major rotator cuff tears, but there's less understanding about its connection with isolated subscapularis tears.
- This study examined 106 patients with isolated subscapularis tears who underwent surgery between 2010 and 2021 to determine if the extent of these tears affected the presence of pseudoparesis.
- Results showed that 41% of the patients had pseudoparesis, which was linked to less severe tears of the subscapularis tendon, even after adjusting for other factors like biceps disorders and muscle atrophy.
Background: This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between kinesiophobia and functional outcomes in patients following medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLr).
Methods: Twenty-one patients (six males, 15 females) who underwent MPFLr between 2016 and 2020, (23.57 ± 9.
Background: Primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has some potential advantages over the reconstruction technique, which include but are not limited to better knee sensation due to preservation of the natural ACL tissue in patients compared with tendon graft. Proprioception is impaired after ACL injuries and the sense of the joint position is lost.
Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to compare arthroscopic ACL primary repair and ACL reconstruction techniques clinically and functionally and analyze the differences in proprioception.
Introduction: We compared the balance, ROM, clinical scores, kinesiophobia and functional outcomes of patients after all-arthroscopic ATFL repair surgery with the non-operated side and healthy control group.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-five patients with follow up time 37.32 ± 12.
Article Synopsis
- Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a common cause of pain on the outer side of the hip.
- The study focused on translating the VISA-G questionnaire into Turkish and assessing its reliability and validity among 108 participants with GTPS.
- Results showed the Turkish VISA-G had strong correlations with other established assessment tools and demonstrated excellent reliability, making it suitable for clinical and research use in Turkish-speaking populations with GTPS.
