Predictors of Internal Rotation after Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty.

Objectives: Internal rotation (IR) remains unpredictable following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA). This study aimed to determine if increasing IR limits range of motion in other planes, and to determine pre- and intra-operative factors associated with post-operative IR.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of a single surgeon's primary rTSA with a single implant was undertaken, excluding patients with acute fracture or infection.

Limb lengthening in the treatment of posteromedial bowing of the tibia.

Purpose: Posteromedial bowing of the tibia is an uncommon but recognized congenital lower extremity deformity in children that can lead to limb length discrepancy (LLD) and residual angulatory deformity. The purpose of this study is to report a series of children at a single institution with posteromedial bowing treated by lengthening.

Methods: A retrospective review was carried out at our institution identifying 16 patients who were treated with limb lengthening for posteromedial bowing of the tibia and followed to skeletal maturity.

The Quality and Accuracy of Online Resources for Total and Reverse Shoulder Replacement.

Recent literature suggests that many online patient resources are poor in quality and lack important clinical information. The purpose of this study was to investigate the value of online resources available to patients considering shoulder arthroplasty. A total of 84 websites were discovered with the terms "total shoulder replacement" (TSR) and "reverse shoulder replacement" (RSR), they were reviewed and graded for quality and accuracy.
