Isolated Osseous Excision in the Adult Carpus: A Narrative Review.

Various pathologies of the adult carpus result in clinical scenarios where excision can be considered and even recommended. In the appropriate patient population, isolated carpal excision can alleviate pain and improve mobility. Excisions of the pisiform, trapezium, and trapezoid have abundant literature evidence to support positive long-term functional outcomes.

The "Standing Peanut" Scaphoid View: A Semi-supinated Radiographic View for Intraoperative Evaluation of Screw Placement in Scaphoid Waist Fractures.

Scaphoid waist fractures are the most common fracture of the scaphoid. Operative management is indicated with unstable fractures and often for nondisplaced waist fractures to decrease time to union and return to work/sport. Screw placement within the central axis of the scaphoid is paramount and correlates with outcomes.

Risk factors of instability following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in patients with no history of shoulder surgery.

Introduction: As its indications expand, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) utilization continues to increase. Though relatively uncommon, instability following rTSA can be associated with significant morbidity and need for subsequent revision and treatment. This case control study aims to characterize factors leading to instability after rTSA, especially in those with no previous shoulder surgery.

Optimizing the Patient Telemedicine Experience in an Orthopaedic Clinic.

With the rapid advancements in today's technology, the telemedicine model of healthcare has become an increasingly useful tool for healthcare providers and patients to interact outside of the confines of a traditional office visit. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many providers have been forced to adopt a component of telemedicine into their practice. In an effort to improve the telemedicine system for continued use, 519 patients in an orthopaedic clinic at a Level One academic system were surveyed on their willingness and confidence to use telemedicine in future orthopaedic visits.
