Yoke procedure as a salvage treatment option for failed reverse total shoulder arthroplasty with irreconstructible glenoid.
J Shoulder Elbow Surg
February 2024

Background: Glenoid bone loss is a known challenge in primary and revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. In severe deficiency, even placing the baseplate in alternative centerline or using an augmented baseplate may be insufficient. This study reports on the use of a soft tissue resurfacing technique using Achilles tendon allograft, coined Yoke procedure, for salvage treatment of glenoid deficient shoulder requiring reconstruction.

Purpose: This research aims to facilitate the use of state-of-the-art computer vision algorithms for the automated training of surgeons and the analysis of surgical footage. By estimating 2D hand poses, we model the movement of the practitioner's hands, and their interaction with surgical instruments, to study their potential benefit for surgical training.
Methods: We leverage pre-trained models on a publicly available hands dataset to create our own in-house dataset of 100 open surgery simulation videos with 2D hand poses.
Success of staged revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in eradication of periprosthetic joint infection.
J Shoulder Elbow Surg
March 2023
The Shoulder Center Research, Baylor Scott and White Research Institute, Dallas, TX, USA; The Shoulder Service, Baylor University Medical Center, Baylor Scott and White Health, Dallas, TX, USA.
Introduction: Management of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in shoulder arthroplasty remains a challenge, with no established gold standard treatment. This study presents the unique experience of a high-volume single-surgeon, single-institution approach on staged revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) for infection. The authors theorize that staged revision RTSA is an effective treatment for PJI.

Department of Surgical Sciences, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
Purpose: To investigate improvement rates, adverse events and predictors of clinical outcome after laminectomy alone (LAM) or laminectomy with instrumented fusion (LAM + F) for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM).
Methods: This is a post hoc analysis of a previously published DCM cohort. Improvement rates for European myelopathy score (EMS) and Neck Disability Index (NDI) at 2- and 5-year follow-ups and adverse events are presented descriptively for available cases.
From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated how much change in mean body mass index (BMI) explains changes in the prevalence of underweight, obesity, and severe obesity in different regions using data from 2896 population-based studies with 187 million participants. Changes in the prevalence of underweight and total obesity, and to a lesser extent severe obesity, are largely driven by shifts in the distribution of BMI, with smaller contributions from changes in the shape of the distribution.
