Background: There is currently limited work that evaluates the effect of co-morbid hypothyroidism on complications and outcomes following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). This study aims to evaluate the impact of hypothyroidism on 90-day medical complications as well as 2-year implant related complications and revision rates following TSA.
Methods: This retrospective database analysis evaluated patients who underwent TSA between October 1, 2015, and March 9, 2022.
Background: Meniscus root tears represent significant pathology that, historically, has been underdiagnosed and undertreated. However, the recognition of their clinical and functional significance has recently surged, mainly due to their frequent association with anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
Aim: This comprehensive review discusses various aspects of meniscal root tears, including their epidemiology, biomechanics, etiology, clinical and radiological findings, classification, management and surgical techniques.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes imaging-detected musculoskeletal injuries and procedures during the 2022 FIFA World Cup, focusing on various injuries in athletes.
- A total of 143 radiology exams were conducted on 94 athletes, primarily using MRI (67%), with the majority of injuries impacting muscles and tendons (42%).
- Diagnostic imaging was essential, with 11% of players undergoing imaging, and acute muscle tears being the most common injury diagnosed among players, primarily aged 24-35 years.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the short-term outcomes of ACL reconstruction (ACLR) alone, ACLR with lateral tenodesis, and ACL and ALL reconstruction.
Methods: A retrospective cohort of prospectively collected data on all ACL procedures was performed at Aspetar Specialized Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital between January 2020 and January 2021. Patients were treated with ACLR alone, ACLR with lateral tenodesis, or ACLR with ALL reconstruction.
Purpose: This systematic review evaluated the clinical outcomes of hardware-free MPFL reconstruction techniques in patients with recurrent patellofemoral instability, focusing on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), redislocation rate, and complications. The hypothesis was that hardware-free MPFL reconstruction in patients with recurrent patellofemoral instability is safe and effective.
Methods: This systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines.
Background: To determine the incidence of concomitant intra-articular glenohumeral injuries in patients undergoing surgical management from distal clavicle fractures (DCF) with shoulder arthroscopy and their impact on outcome.
Methods: This systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. PubMed, EMBASE, and Virtual Health Library databases were accessed in October 2021.
