The Wuxi No.9 People's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University, No. 999 Liangxi Road, Wuxi, 214000, China.
Background: Complicated wrist amputation caused by severe trauma poses a real challenge for orthopedic and hand surgeons. This study aimed to evaluate a procedure of ulnoradial-metacarpal reconstruction as a rescue option in this challenging situation.
Methods: In total, 12 patients with complicated wrist amputation induced by serious injury were selected from 2015 to 2020 and followed up for 1∼6 years at a level 1 trauma center.
Efficacy of latissimus dorsi and teres major tendon transfer in anterosuperior irreparable rotator cuff tears and posterosuperior irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yeosu Baek Hospital, 50, Yeosu 1-ro, Yeosusi, Yeosu-si, Jeollanam-do, Republic of Korea.
Background: There are various options of tendon transfer according to the different types of irreparable rotator cuff tears (IRCTs). However, there were no clear treatment options for the IRCTs involving the anterior, superior and posterior rotator cuff tears (global IRCTs). Latissimus dorsi and teres major (LDTM) could be transferred anteriorly or posteriorly in global IRCTs.

Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) is a rare condition resulting from damage to the optic nerve due to craniofacial trauma. It can present as direct or indirect injuries, with mechanisms ranging from mechanical disruption by fractures in direct TON to transmitted forces causing shearing and ischemia in indirect TON. These injuries often lead to significant visual impairment or complete vision loss, requiring timely diagnosis and intervention.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe management of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears is commonly debated without consensus. With reverse shoulder arthroplasty often reserved for the older patient (older than 60 years) with rotator cuff arthropathy, treatment of the younger patient population (younger than 60 years) without arthritis is more complex. When determining a surgical approach, the clinical presentation including history and physical examination plays a vital role in the decision tree.

Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yeosu Baek Hospital, Yeosu, Republic of Korea.
Background: Lower trapezius tendon (LTT) transfer has demonstrated promising results for patients with posterosuperior irreparable rotator cuff tears (PSIRCTs). However, there has been no study evaluating return to work (RTW) and return to sports (RTS) after LTT transfer.
Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to assess the rates of RTW and RTS and identify associated factors among patients who have undergone LTT transfer for PSIRCTs.
