Developing & integrating a mobile application tool into a survivorship clinic for esophageal cancer patients.

Esophageal cancer (EC) patients are living longer due to enhanced screening and novel therapeutics, however, the post-esophagectomy long-term management remains challenging for patients, caregivers, and providers. Patients experience significant morbidity and have difficulty managing symptoms. Providers struggle to manage symptoms, affecting patients' quality of life and complicating care coordination between surgical teams and primary care providers.

Ultrasound-guided injection of the long head of the biceps tendon sheath with concomitant subacromial bursa injection through the same needlestick.

Sonography and specific shoulder positions allow for injections into both the long head of the biceps tendon sheath (LHBTS) and the subacromial space (SS) with one needlestick. We validated this technique using cadavers. An experienced proceduralist injected latex solution into 12 unembalmed cadaveric shoulders, aiming for the LHBTS and SS, using an ultrasound-guided injection technique that employs a single-needle entry point.

The Intergluteal Fat Stripe in Patients With Hip Abductor Tears.

Background: With a hip abductor tendon tear, widening of the intergluteal space, or "fat stripe," is a characteristic change seen in and around the gluteus medius and minimus.

Purpose: To determine the relationship of the intergluteal fat stripe in hips with pathologic abductor tears compared with the contralateral side and to evaluate the association of fat stripe size with hip-specific patient-reported outcome measures.

Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4.

Managing Sports-related Concussions From Time of Injury Through Return to Play.

Sports-related concussions continue to generate widespread interest. A concussion is a complex pathophysiologic process, with or without loss of consciousness, that results in a disturbance of brain function. Risk factors include age <18 years, female sex, and history of a previous concussion.
