Background: Severe glenoid bone loss in the setting of both primary and revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) continues to remain a significant challenge. The purpose of this study was to report on radiographic and clinical outcomes of primary and revision rTSA using a patient-matched, 3-dimensionally printed metal glenoid implant to address severe glenoid bone deficiency. This is a follow-up study to previously reported preliminary results.

- Olecranon stress fractures (OSFs) are uncommon injuries mainly seen in elite throwing athletes, with a common treatment being cannulated screw fixation, though this often leads to hardware irritation and removal.
- This study introduces a new surgical method using retrograde headless compression screws for repairing OSFs while avoiding triceps tendon disruption.
- The results showed that all 5 athletes treated were able to return to their sport at the same or higher level within an average of 5.8 months, with favorable postoperative scores indicating minimal pain and excellent functional outcomes.

Purpose: To determine the incidence of subclinical infections in patients undergoing revision arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and identify any risk factors for developing these infections.
Methods: Patients who underwent revision surgery by the senior author between January 2012 and December 2022 after a previous rotator cuff surgery were identified. All patients undergoing an open or arthroscopic revision of their previous rotator cuff surgery were included.
Background: Shoulder instability continues to be a common problem that is difficult to treat. Part of this difficulty can be attributed to the numerous postoperative complications that can impact the clinical course. Our study aims to primarily identify the incidence of subclinical infection in patients undergoing revision shoulder stabilization surgery and secondarily identify any risk factors for developing a subclinical infection.

However, distal humeral hemiarthroplasty (DHH) offers an alternative with potential long-term advantages.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of 10 patients who underwent DHH for distal humerus fractures over a 4-year period (2008-2012) by a single surgeon.
