Varus posteromedial rotatory instability (VPMRI) of the elbow is one of the complex elbow instability. The primary sites of injury encompass fractures of the anteromedial coronoid process and injuries to the lateral collateral ligament of the elbow. Some patients may present with involvement of the medial collateral ligament of the elbow.

Backgroud: Medial humeral epicondyle fracture is a prevalent type of upper limb fractures in pediatric patients. This study aims to compare the follow-up clinical results and complications in 30 children with medial epicondyle fractures who were treated with either metal screws or absorbable screws at our hospital.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 30 children with medial humeral epicondyle fractures, who were divided into two groups: Metal group (18 children) underwent fixation using metal screws, while Absorbable group (12 children) received absorbable screws between January 2016 and June 2024.
The medial ulnar collateral ligament (MUCL) complex is integral for valgus elbow stability, especially in individuals engaged in repetitive overhead activities such as throwing. MUCL injuries often necessitate surgical intervention to restore elbow stability. Early studies reporting outcomes after MUCL repair demonstrated suboptimal return to play compared with ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction, prompting a shift toward reconstruction techniques.

The medial ulnar collateral ligament of the elbow is the primary stabilizer against valgus load. It can tear acutely or through attritional damage as in repetitive overhead sports. Although baseball players, particularly pitchers, are the most vulnerable athletes, these injuries also occur in contact athletes, gymnasts, and javelin throwers.

Background: While outcomes following reverse shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) have often been gauged through radiological assessments focusing on prosthesis position, there is increasing recognition of patient-reported outcomes, particularly satisfaction, as indicators of surgical success. The objective of this study was to correlate radiological findings with clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on patients following rTSA at a minimum of two years postoperatively.
