The clinical course and outcomes following arthroscopic frozen shoulder 360° release.

Background: Frozen shoulder (FS) is a debilitating inflammatory condition affecting the shoulder capsule that causes significant pain and stiffness. Its etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment remain poorly understood. Although regarded as self-limiting, FS can have profound implications on the activities of daily living and usually takes 1-4 years to resolve on its own accord.

Combined cuff repair and superior capsular reconstruction reinforcement in patients with massive rotator cuff (re)tears: a minimum 2-year clinical and radiological follow-up.

Background: Due to the ageing population, the number of symptomatic degenerative rotator cuff tears has increased substantially, and some are challenging to repair due to poor tendon quality with significant retraction. In order to optimize repair integrity and function, rotator cuff repair reinforcement with a superior capsule reconstruction has been proposed. This study presents the results of a technique combining cuff repair and capsular reconstruction (CRACR) using acellular dermal allograft in patients with massive rotator cuff tears and retears.

Allograft Prosthetic Composite (APC) for Proximal Humeral Bone Deficiency in Revision Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Technical Note and Systematic Review.

: Proximal humeral bone deficiency in revision shoulder arthroplasty is an emerging and challenging problem as the use of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) increases. This paper presents a technical note discussing our detailed preoperative planning steps, surgical techniques, and their rationale in carrying out the use of an allograft prosthetic composite (APC) to address proximal humeral bone deficiency in revision RSA. The outcomes of this technique are also presented.

Stemless anatomic and reverse shoulder arthroplasty in patients under 55 years of age with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis: an analysis of the Australian Orthopedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry at 5 years.

Background: Primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis in young patients poses challenging treatment decisions. Arthroplasty options have different failure profiles and implant survivorship patterns. This registry study aims to analyze the cumulative per cent revision (CPR) rate of different types of arthroplasties conducted for primary osteoarthritis in patients below 55 years of age.
