Arthroscopically Assisted Coracoclavicular (CC) Stabilization Using a Suture Button Device for Lateral Clavicle Fractures with CC Ligament Injury.

Lateral clavicle fractures represent approximately 10-15% of all clavicle fractures. However, controversy exists regarding the optimal surgical treatment because of instability associated with the coracoclavicular (CC) ligament injury and a small lateral fragment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiological and clinical outcomes of arthroscopically assisted CC stabilization using a suture button device for lateral clavicle fractures accompanied by CC ligament injury.

Risk Factors for Concussion in Under 18, Under 22 and Professional Men's Rugby Union: A Video Analysis of 14,809 Tackles.

Objective: This study aimed to identify the risk factors for tackle-related concussion observed in matches involving under (U) 18, U 22 and professional men's Rugby Union players through video analysis.

Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study.

Methods: Twenty Rugby Union matches each for high school (U18), university/college (U22) and professional (Elite) were randomly selected from 202 matches in the 2018/2019 season.

Glenoid Bone Loss Is a Risk Factor for Poor Clinical Results After Coracoid Transfer in Rugby Players With Shoulder Dislocations.

Background: Although surgical shoulder stabilization via coracoid transfer in collision athletes is effective and has a low reinjury rate, the factors affecting poor clinical results and the superiority of the 2 stabilization procedures (Bristow and Latarjet) remain unclear.

Purpose: To explore the factor(s) affecting poor clinical results of coracoid transfer in a large cohort of rugby players and to compare postoperative function between the Bristow and Latarjet procedures.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
