We describe 7 cases in which supplementary sulcus-based toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) rotated postoperatively, requiring surgical realignment. The initial rotation was identified clinically between 3 months and 36 months postoperatively. All eyes had keratoconus, with and without prior keratoplasty, and 6 had longer than average axial lengths. No preceding trauma could be identified for 5 of the eyes. One eye had 3 episodes of postoperative IOL rotation, eventually requiring suture fixation to stabilize the IOL. This series indicates that postoperative rotation of a supplementary sulcus-based toric IOL may occur in eyes with or without preceding trauma. Eyes with keratoconus are at risk for postoperative rotation of the IOL, and suture fixation may be required to obtain stability.

Introduction: The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main patellar stabilizer in low knee flexion degrees (0-30°). Isolated MPFL reconstruction (MPFLr) is therefore considered the gold standard of surgical procedures for low flexion patellofemoral instabilities (PFIs). Despite excellent clinical results, little is known about the effect of MPFLr on kinematic parameters (KPs) of the patellofemoral joint in vivo.

Purpose: To determine if the fatty infiltration of rotator cuff muscles, as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) preoperatively and assessed using the Goutallier Fatty Degeneration Index (GFDI), can predict early post-operative shoulder stiffness (POSS) following rotator cuff repair (RCR).

Methods: This retrospective longitudinal cohort study included patients who underwent primary RCR, had available medical records, and underwent MRI before RCR between November 2012 and July 2022. Patients were excluded based on the following criteria: (1) preoperative shoulder stiffness, (2) additional procedures (e.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the integrity of the repaired rotator cuff between 1 and 2 years postoperatively after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), investigate the factors affecting its change, and assess the association between the change and postoperative clinical outcomes.

Methods: Rotator cuff tear patients who underwent ARCR and were evaluated by MRI before surgery, and 1 and 2 years after ARCR with a minimum of 2-year follow-up were included in this study. Repair integrity was evaluated using Sugaya's classification, and according to the classification types IV and V were defined as re-tears.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of immobilizing the upper limb with a brace versus a less-constrained sling in the rehabilitation after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR), by documenting clinical and radiological results.

Methods: ARCR was performed in 110 patients (54.9±8.

Congenital radioulnar synostosis (CRUS) presents a complex forearm deformity, requiring precise osteotomy planning for anatomical restoration. This study proposes an automatic osteotomy preoperative planning method for forearms with CRUS. Proximal forearm bones are first aligned with the template forearm and then a dual dimensional optimization (DDO) strategy is used to optimize the spatial transformation parameters of the distal fragment.
