The Role of Arthroscopy in Contemporary Glenoid Fossa Fracture Fixation.

Glenoid fossa fractures are rare injuries accounting for 10 to 29% of all intra-articular scapula fractures. They are usually the result of high-energy trauma, and concomitant injuries are not uncommon. Patients with glenoid fractures are admitted with shoulder pain and restricted range of motion.

Comparison of Cross-Pin Versus Cortical Button Femoral Fixation in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Hamstrings Autograft: A Long-Term Clinical Study and Review of the Literature.

Background Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a common operative procedure and many options regarding the type of the selected graft and fixation technique have been described to date. Although many studies have addressed the issue of the optimal femoral fixation device during ACLR with a hamstring tendon (HT) autograft, no clear evidence to indicate one technique over another has been found. Objective The purpose of this study was to compare the long-term postoperative outcomes and complication rates between transfemoral Cross-pin (CP) and Endobutton-Cortical Button (CB) fixation techniques in patients undergoing ACLR with an HT autograft.

Clinical and Functional Results Following Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Young Patients.

Introduction:  Posterior cruciate ligament injuries are uncommon, and their management is controversial. However, surgical reconstruction is necessary in case of symptomatic lesions. The present study aimed to analyse patients' reported outcomes and clinical evaluation after isolated posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
