Background: This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of the olecranon osteotomy approach and the Bryan-Morrey approach in total elbow arthroplasty (TEA).
Methods: In this retrospective study, 49 patients with elbow disease were treated with TEA. A total of 22 patients with TEA by olecranon osteotomy approach were designated as group A, and 27 patients with TEA by Bryan-Morrey approach were designated as group B. There were 22 males and 27 females, aged 32-82 years with a mean age of 62 years. There were 44 cases of unilateral elbow joint, including 27 cases on the left elbow and 17 cases on the right elbow, and 5 cases of the bilateral elbow joint. There were 6 cases of osteoarthritis (7 elbows), 18 cases of rheumatoid arthritis (22 elbows), 14 cases of traumatic arthritis (14 elbows), 7 cases of distal humeral fractures (7 elbows), and 4 cases of elbow tuberculosis (4 elbows). For each group, we recorded the operative time, intraoperative bleeding, elbow flexion, extension, pronation, supination, postoperative complication rates, and Mayo Elbow Performance Score after surgery.
Results: Operative time and intraoperative bleeding were less in group A than in group B (53-120 min [70 (62.5, 78) min] vs. 64-105 min [77 (73, 87) min], and 10-200 ml [50 (20, 90) ml] vs. 5-250 ml [100 (50, 150) ml], P < .028). The elbow flexion, pronation activity, and Mayo Elbow Performance Score were higher in group A than in group B, [(121 ± 12)° vs. (112 ± 10)°, 85 (85,85)° vs. 80 (77,85)°, and (94 ± 3) points vs. (91 ± 4) points, P < .036], while elbow extension and supination activity and complication rates were not statistically significant in either group.
Conclusion: Compared to Bryan-Morrey approach, the olecranon osteotomy approach to TEA provides adequate visualization, saves operative time and reduces bleeding, provides better flexion activity, effectively improves elbow function, and achieves satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Humeral and Glenoid Component Malposition in Revision Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Retrospective, Cross-sectional Study.
J Shoulder Elbow Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University at Buffalo, SUNY, Buffalo, NY, USA.
Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of glenoid and humeral component malposition in failed primary shoulder arthroplasty requiring revision. We hypothesized that glenoid and humeral component malposition would be a prevalent feature in cases requiring revision arthroplasty for primary anatomic TSA, primary RSA, and primary hemiarthroplasty procedures.
Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was performed focusing on identifying the incidence of malpositioned components in shoulder arthroplasty in quantitative and qualitative reviews.
The role of skin microbiota in lichen planus from a Mendelian randomization perspective.

Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu, China.
Lichen planus is a chronic skin lesion characterized by pruritic violaceous papules, which has a high risk of morbidity. Skin microbiota plays an important role in the maintenance of cutaneous mucosal barrier and human health and immune homeostasis. Studies have shown that skin microbiota may play a role in the pathogenesis of lichen planus, but it is not yet clear.

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, Pieve Emanuele, Milan, Italy.
Aims: The aim of this study was to report long-term clinical outcomes of a modern convertible metal-backed glenoid (MBG) in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA).
Methods: After a minimum of 15 years, a previously studied cohort of 35 patients who received a modern convertible MBG during the period 1996 to 2005 was contacted for clinical and radiological follow-up. At last follow-up, patients were evaluated radiologically and clinically according to the Constant Score, Simple Shoulder Test, and visual analogue scale for pain.

Objective: We aimed to assess the recent trends in the demographics of radial head and neck fractures and their management based on displacement.
Methods: TriNetX was queried for cases from 1 January 2017, through 31 December 2022. ICD diagnosis codes were used to define patient cohorts with radial head or neck fractures.
Ten-Year Implant Survivorship and Performance of Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty Patients with the Zimmer Biomet Comprehensive® Shoulder System - a Short Stemmed Humeral Implant and Hybrid Glenoid.
J Shoulder Elbow Surg
January 2025
University of Maryland Medical System, Department of Orthopaedics, Baltimore, MD, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty are highly successful procedures for treatment of glenohumeral arthritis to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and overall quality of life. However, the long-term survivorship of the implant systems is less widely documented in the existing literature. The purpose of this study was to establish the long-term patient outcomes and identify factors influencing the postoperative implant survivorship of total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty devices/procedures utilizing the short-stemmed prosthesis and hybrid glenoid components of the Comprehensive Shoulder System (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA) at an average of ten years.
