This case report highlights a rare complication of arthroscopic meniscal tear which is an arteriovenous fistula and pseudoaneurysm of the superior medial geniculate artery. A 14-year-old male patient presented with persistent hemarthrosis following arthroscopic repair of a bucket handle medial meniscal tear. The patient was investigated due to suspicion of vascular damage.

Hypothesis: We hypothesized that the combination of multiaxial locking using three screws and parallel locking reinforced by two blocking screws would result in superior outcomes compared to utilizing only parallel locking with two screws and one blocking screw.
Materials And Methods: Third-generation custom-made femur models representing AO/OTA 32 A1.
Frozen shoulder (FS) is an elusive condition that affects patients' mental and emotional quality of their lives. Corticosteroid injection technique is one of the first-line treatment methods in the treatment of FS. Ultrasound (USG) guidance allows visualization of the shoulder anatomy and improves the accuracy of the injection site.

Methods: This review was performed by searching PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science without a filter for time limitation in line with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. Two authors took part in screening and evaluating the literature between December 2020 and January 2021.
