Impact of Covid-19 pandemic on arthroplasty services and early experience after resuming surgeries at a 'non Covid' center.

Background: The aim of this study is to assess the impact of Covid-19 crisis on hip and knee joint replacement surgeries at a high volume tertiary care hospital in the Indian National Capital Region and to evaluate the early experience of resumption of arthroplasty services.

Methods: Institutional records of the arthroplasty cases, operated between 1st March to 31 August of 2019 (Group A, pre-Covid) and 2020 (Group B, pandemic year) were compared retrospectively over numerous parameters including the complications within six weeks of surgery.

Results: There was a significant drop (by 82.

Changes in Shoulder Rotator Strength After Arthroscopic Capsulolabral Reconstruction in Patients With Anterior Shoulder Instability.

Background: The correlation between isokinetic internal and external rotation (IR and ER) strength and functional outcomes in patients with anterior shoulder instability treated by arthroscopic capsulolabral reconstruction (ACR) has not been studied.

Purpose: To analyze isokinetic IR and ER strength and their correlation with clinical outcomes in patients with anterior shoulder instability treated by ACR.

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

Impending spontaneous head neck dissociation caused by anteverted cup: A case report on reverse bottle opener effect and review of literature.

Modularity in total hip arthroplasty (THA) not only allows adjustments of leg length and offset but also simplifies the revision. It allows limited revision of various components and decreases surgical morbidity of complete revision. Despite benefits, modularity is associated with risks like corrosion and component dissociation.

Rare Asymptomatic Posterior Dislocation of Mobile Bearing Insert in Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty: A Case Report.

Dislocation of polyethylene insert is a common complication of mobile bearing uniconylar knee arthroplasty (UKA). Dislocation, when occurs is common in anterior, lateral or medial direction. The authors report a case of posterior dislocation in which patient remained asymptomatic and the dislocation was detected in a routine follow-up radiograph done at 18 months after surgery.

Is Anatomical Healing Essential for Better Clinical Outcome in Type II SLAP Repair? Clinico-Radiological Outcome after Type II SLAP Repair.

Background: We hypothesized that anatomical healing in superior labrum anterior to posterior (SLAP) repair is associated with good clinical outcome. The purposes of this study were to assess the failure rate of anatomical healing after arthroscopic repair of SLAP lesions using computed tomography arthrography (CTA), investigate correlation of the rate with clinical outcomes, and identify prognostic factors for anatomical failure following SLAP repair.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the outcome of 43 patients at a minimum follow-up of 1 year after arthroscopic surgery for SLAP lesions or SLAP lesions associated with Bankart lesions.
