Case: A 16-year-old male patient presented with isolated bilateral sacroiliac (SI) joint dislocation. In this report, we discuss the presentation and focus on strategies for operative reduction and fixation for this rare injury.

Conclusion: In conclusion, we present a case of a bilateral ligamentous SI joint dislocation in an adolescent. The patient was reduced in the supine position with a sacral bump and bilateral traction with direct and indirect reduction aids inserted through a lateral window. Bilateral SI screws stabilized the pelvis, facilitating uncomplicated healing.

Purpose: To compare the odds of patellofemoral instability events requiring subsequent surgery and revision surgical intervention in patients with joint hypermobility syndromes (JHS) to that of a matched cohort.

Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study using the PearlDiver Mariner Database. Records were queried between 2010 and 2021 with a diagnosis of JHS, including Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and Marfan syndrome.

Introduction: The outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) are highly dependent upon the restoration of native hip biomechanics and optimal component positioning. Robotic technologies for THA have rapidly improved the accuracy of component positioning and maintaining the planned center of rotation. While robotic-assisted THA (RA-THA) has primarily been employed in surgically intricate cases, its potential benefits in scenarios of diminished surgical complexity remain less explored.

A new classification for dislocated and displaced proximal humeral fractures.

J Orthop Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kobe City Medical Center General Hospital, 2-1-1 Minatojima-minamimachi, Chuo-ku, Kobe, 650-0047, Japan.

Background: Although the Neer and AO/OTA classifications have been widely accepted, observer reliability studies of these two classifications have questioned their reliability and reproducibility to date. We developed an entirely new classification, the Mitsuzawa classification, for dislocated and displaced proximal humeral fractures and tested all three classifications for their intra- and interobserver reliability.

Methods: Two experienced shoulder surgeons and two orthopedic residents independently evaluated the Xray (xR) values of 100 proximal humeral fractures (PHFs).

Case: A 75-year-old woman status post total shoulder arthroplasty and posterior rib resection 29 years previously experienced a low-energy intrathoracic scapular dislocation (ISD). Closed reduction under anesthesia was unsuccessful, and she required open surgical repair performed by a novel modification of Kibler's technique for medial scapular muscle repair.

Conclusion: This case is unique because increased range of motion after successful arthroplasty allowed her shoulder to flex forward enough to result in ISD.
