Background: Painful degeneration of the sternoclavicular joint refractory to nonoperative treatment has historically been managed with resection of the degenerative segment of the medial clavicle. Although this has produced good results with improvement in symptoms, recurrent pain necessitating revision surgery is not an infrequently encountered outcome. To reduce the occurrence of recurrent postoperative pain, a novel technique to reconstruct the intra-articular disc at the time of medial clavicle resection was developed.

Background: The aim of surgical treatment for posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) of the elbow is to restore the integrity of the lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL), with ligamentous reconstruction being the preferred option for recurrent symptomatic PLRI. However, there is no clinical evidence demonstrating the superiority of reconstruction versus repair. Treatment options currently depend on the cause of the LUCL injury and surgeon preference.

Background: Restoring elbow flexion following brachial plexus injury (BPI) is essential for improving arm function and quality of life in adults. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of Oberlin II and intercostal nerve (ICN) neurotization techniques for restoring elbow flexion in adults with upper and middle trunk brachial plexus palsy.
Methods: This prospective study included 36 patients aged 18 to 50 years with traumatic upper and middle trunk brachial plexus palsy.
