With the recent trends toward outpatient shoulder surgery, standardized protocols for perioperative analgesia are critical for reducing length of stay and optimizing outcomes. There are a variety of described anesthetic and analgesic options for shoulder surgery, and the literature is variable regarding optimal choice as patient, provider, and institutional factors often play a role. With general anesthesia alone becoming less utilized, regional methods require critical examination. Knowledge of the differing, and novel, regional anesthetic procedures in conjunction with recent orthopaedic and anesthetic literature is imperative to providing patients with optimal and efficient care.

Purpose: Brachial plexus traction injuries have conventionally been categorized as involving the C5-C6, C5-C7, C5-T1, and C8-T1 roots. In this article, we report a distinct clinical presentation of brachial plexus injury characterized by intact finger flexion with signs of complete brachial plexus injury.

Methods: From 2010 to 2022, 989 patients who sustained brachial plexus injuries were examined and underwent surgery.

Swimmer's shoulder is a common condition among elite swimmers, often leading to pain and reduced performance. Fatigue can exacerbate this condition by affecting shoulder strength, proprioception, and range of motion, potentially increasing the risk of overuse injuries. This preliminary study aimed to evaluate the impact of physiotherapy treatment and the effects of fatigue on shoulder kinematics using inertial and magnetic measurement units (IMUs).

Successful treatment of severe trauma and fractures of the long bones with successful healing and bone union is still a significant challenge for surgeons. Unfortunately, up to 10% of long-bone fractures develop bone healing disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of treating bone defects with different etiologies in the upper and lower extremities using the induced membrane technique.

Posterior neck, trapezius, and interscapular pain, exacerbated by poor posture such as forward head and rounded shoulders, is common. In this study, we aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of isotonic saline injections at nerve entrapment points (NEPs) within the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) and scalenus medius (SM) muscles for alleviating spinal accessory nerve (SAN) and dorsal scapular nerve (DSN) compression in patients suffering from posterior neck, trapezius, and interscapular pain. In this retrospective study, 68 patients were included, with 34 receiving isotonic saline injections and 34 undergoing Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) as a control.

Glenoid and humeral bone loss is associated with a high incidence of recurrent shoulder instability and failure of arthroscopic stabilization procedures. However, the radiographic evaluation of bony Bankart and Hill-Sachs injuries continues to pose a diagnostic challenge, and a universally accepted optimal method of measurement is lacking. The purpose of this review is to summarize the advantages and disadvantages of various techniques and imaging modalities available for measuring glenoid bone loss in shoulder instability, including conventional roentgenography, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
