Intramedullary nailing is the gold standard of treatment for atypical femoral fractures, with a few reports of secondary atypical subtrochanteric femoral fractures following intramedullary nailing for atypical diaphyseal femoral fractures. However, there are no reports of secondary atypical diaphyseal femoral fractures following intramedullary nailing for atypical subtrochanteric femoral fractures.

This study aimed to examine the relationship between individual characteristics and differences in HHC health outcomes for seriously ill older adults.

Article Synopsis
- A study evaluating clinical outcomes and tendon healing rates after arthroscopic isolated subscapularis (SSC) repair (AISR) found that AISR results in significant improvements in shoulder function and pain relief over a midterm follow-up period.
- Out of 77 patients analyzed, 87.5% exhibited complete tendon healing post-surgery, although larger tear sizes and increased muscle atrophy were associated with lower healing rates.
- The findings suggest that while tear size and muscle atrophy negatively impact tendon healing, they do not affect the overall clinical outcomes experienced by patients.
