Background: We evaluated the imaging and functional outcomes of anatomic stemless shoulder arthroplasty (ECLIPSE) in elderly patients with primary osteoarthritis of the glenohumeral joint in Asian developing countries.
Methods: Thirty patients were treated using stemless TSA in 26 months period (years 2017 and 2019), and were followed for a minimum of 24 months. Functional outcomes were assessed using Constant and ASES scores.
Purpose: To determine whether curettage of the cartilage on the glenoid edge in arthroscopic Bankart repair reduces the postoperative recurrence rate compared with noncuretted glenoid.
Methods: Between January 2010 and December 2013, 134 patients underwent arthroscopy and stabilization for recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder; 42 patients were excluded. Alternate glenoid edge was curetted in 92 patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair.
Purpose: To document the incidence of long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) pathology in full-thickness reparable rotator cuff tears and report the clinical results of arthroscopic LHBT tenotomy combined with rotator cuff repair.
Methods: Between January 2012 and January 2014, 141 shoulders with full-thickness rotator cuff tears that had undergone arthroscopic repair were included for the analysis. The LHBT was thoroughly examined during arthroscopy, and tenotomy was performed in all patients with a pathologic LHBT.
