Lateral Decubitus Position for Arthroscopic Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis.

The purpose of this report is to describe arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis in the lateral decubitus position. Many technique descriptions for this procedure emphasize the beach-chair position to obtain optimal anterior subdeltoid visualization of the relevant anatomy. This is not required and may be less desirable or comfortable for a shoulder arthroscopist who prefers the lateral decubitus position.

American Medical Society for Sports Medicine (AMSSM) position statement: interventional musculoskeletal ultrasound in sports medicine.

The use of diagnostic and interventional ultrasound has significantly increased over the past decade. A majority of the increased utilization is by nonradiologists. In sports medicine, ultrasound is often used to guide interventions such as aspirations, diagnostic or therapeutic injections, tenotomies, releases, and hydrodissections.

Arthroscopic repair of inferior labrum from anterior to posterior lesions associated with multidirectional instability of the shoulder.

Multidirectional instability (MDI) of the shoulder may arise spontaneously; however, recent evidence suggests that traumatic events may play a role in this syndrome. Variable degrees of injury around the circumference of the glenoid have been reported, ranging from Bankart and Kim lesions to 270° of injury and even 360° of injury. Hyperabduction injury may cause inferior subluxation of the shoulder and result in traumatic isolated injury to the inferior labrum from anterior to posterior.

Ultrasonography of fractures in sports medicine.

High-resolution ultrasound is emerging as an important imaging modality in fracture assessment due to its availability, ease of use and multiplanar capabilities. Its usefulness includes injury assessment for the presence of a fracture when obtaining radiographs is not immediately available, detecting occult fractures not revealed on radiographs, and diagnosing bone stress injury before radiographic changes. Sonographic evaluation of bone, however, has limitations and should always be coupled with radiographs and possibly advanced imaging modalities such as CT and MR when clinically indicated.

Cuboid subluxation: a case study and review of the literature.

Cuboid subluxation involves displacement of the cuboid, resulting in pain and problems with push off during dancing or running. Its incidence varies with the population being studied, being apparently highest in ballet dancers. Most cuboid subluxations are plantar and medial, with rare dorsal subluxations.
