Article Synopsis
- The Trillat procedure is a surgical method for treating recurrent anterior shoulder instability, involving the reshaping of the coracoid process; it is now used selectively for specific cases.
- A systematic review analyzed seven studies involving 419 patients, revealing a high satisfaction rate (91.2%) and good functional scores, but a recurrence rate of 10.28%.
- Overall, the procedure shows promising outcomes, especially for patients with low-grade glenoid bone loss and certain shoulder conditions, although common complications include limited external rotation and osteoarthritis.
Article Synopsis
- Optimal glenoid positioning in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is essential for achieving an impingement-free range of motion (ROM), with the study aiming to identify the best configurations through simulations.
- A total of 41 patients were evaluated using four different glenoid implant configurations, examining the impact of lateralization and inclination corrections on shoulder ROM.
- The findings indicated that the configuration with lateralization and RSA angle correction yielded significantly improved ROM across multiple movements, while medialization alone resulted in the poorest ROM outcomes.
Introduction: To consider the inherent respondent burden of PROMs, the HOOS-12 as a shortform of the well-established HOOS questionnaire has been published. While the HOOS-12 has been validated in an initial study, further evaluation in other, non-English speaking cohorts is necessary. We therefore aimed to evaluate responsiveness, convergent construct validity, internal consistency, and floor and ceiling effects of the HOOS-12 in a cross-sectoral german cohort.

Given the increasing number of TKAs performed annually, the rising demand for CIM implants, and the associated burden of revision surgeries, understanding the mid-term performance of CIM implants is crucial. Therefore, this study aims to report on the mid-term (minimum 5 years) outcomes of TKA using a CIM implant.
