Influence of subscapularis tendon reattachment after reverse shoulder arthroplasty: clinical findings and ultrasonographic evaluation of the subscapularis at 89 months mean follow-up.

Background: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is commonly used to treat rotator cuff arthropathy. In the deltopectoral approach for RSA, the subscapularis tendon is (partly) detached. The clinical effects of subscapularis reattachment are still under debate.

Ninety-day complication rate based on 532 Latarjet procedures in Dutch hospitals with different operation volumes.

Background: In this study, we aimed to provide insight into the 90-day complication rates following the Latarjet procedure. Data from 2015 were collected from multiple hospitals in the Netherlands, with different volumes of Latarjet procedures. Our second aim was to examine which patient and surgical factors were associated with complications.

Long-term outcomes after Instrumented Bone Preserving total elbow arthroplasty: a radiostereometric study with a minimum follow-up of 10 years.

Background: Aseptic loosening is a main concern in elbow arthroplasty. Evaluation of implant migration using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) might increase understanding of implant loosening. Previously, 2-year RSA results of 16 Instrumented Bone Preserving (IBP) elbow prostheses showed migration of the humeral component in the first weeks but most components stabilized within 6 months postoperatively.

Primary intra-articular epithelioid sarcoma of the knee: Unusual presentation of a rare entity.

We report a case of a 60-year-old female with severe and progressive pain of her right knee. Physical therapy, pain medication, and arthroscopic debridement were unsuccessful. Finally, pathological examination revealed an intra-articular epithelioid sarcoma, a rare tumor in an atypical location.

The optimal treatment for stage 2-3 Goutallier rotator cuff tears: A systematic review of the literature.

Unlabelled: Fatty infiltration is an important prognostic factor for cuff healing after rotator cuff repair. Treatment options for stage 2-3 Goutallier rotator cuff tears vary widely and there is lack of decent comparative studies.

Purposes: The objective of this study was 1) to give an overview of the treatment options of stage 2-3 Goutallier rotator cuff tears and their clinical outcome and 2) to give a recommendation of the optimal treatment within this specific subgroup.
