Outcomes of single bundle arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in a limited resource setting.

Objectives: Despite various challenges, orthopaedic sports surgeons are still providing the arthroscopic service in low-income and middle-income countries like Nepal; however, it is hardly being reported. The main purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes and complications of patients undergoing arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in the urban group and that of the rural group.

Methods: We evaluated a total of 194 patients, including 98 patients in the urban group and 96 patients in the rural group, undergoing arthroscopic ACLR between August 2015 and February 2018, and had completed a minimum of 2-year follow-up.

Comparative study of arthroscopic Bankart repair versus open Latarjet procedure for recurrent shoulder dislocation.

The secondary aims were to assess and compare the surgical cost, patient satisfaction, and complications, including recurrence and infection.

Methods: We retrospectively compared the clinical outcomes of all consecutive patients undergoing either arthroscopic Bankart repair or the open Latarjet procedure from May 2015 to May 2018 with a minimum 2-year follow-up.
