Nonoperative and Operative Soft Tissue, Cartilage, and Bony Regeneration and Orthopaedic Biologics of the Elbow and Upper Extremity: An Orthoregeneration Network (ON) Foundation Review Authors:
Various orthopaedic biologics (orthobiologics) have been investigated for the treatment of pathology involving the elbow and upper extremity including the tendons (lateral epicondylitis, medial epicondylitis, biceps tendonitis, triceps tendonitis), articular cartilage (osteoarthritis, osteochondral lesions), and bone (fractures, non-unions, avascular necrosis, osteonecrosis).
What Causes Infraspinatus Pain and How Can You Treat It?
The infraspinatus muscle works alongside three other rotator cuff muscles to stabilize and move the shoulder. Occasionally, repetitive movements or other disorders can cause pain in this muscle.
Review compares analgesic interventions after shoulder surgery
The average pain trajectories after shoulder surgery vary with different analgesic interventions, according to research presented at the 49th Annual Regional Anesthesiology and Acute Pain Medicine Meeting, held from March 21 to 23 in San Diego.
Deep learning enables faster, more accurate decisions for treatment of shoulder abnormalities
QUT scientists have developed a deep learning framework to detect shoulder abnormalities such as fractures in X-ray images with 99% accuracy to enable clinicians to make correct and speedy decisions in emergency situations.
Arthroscopic Subscapular Sling Procedure for Anterior Glenohumeral Instability Has Limitations: Dynamic Anterior Stabilization Using Long Head of Biceps Tendon May Represent a More Favorable Alternative
Recently, for cases that fall between the need of arthroscopic repair and open procedures, surgeons have developed methods for using soft tissue grafts in order to create a “sling” effect and augment glenoid labral repair.
