Clinical results of reverse shoulder arthroplasty after failed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to primary cases: a case–control study
Although reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is a popular treatment, its efficacy in patients with failed rotator cuff repair (ARCR) remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical results of RSA for following failed ARCR. We hypothesized that RSA after failed ARCR would lead to improved clinical outcomes comparable to those of RSA performed without prior surgeries.
8 Types of Shoulder Surgeries
Common types of shoulder surgeries include rotator cuff repair, total shoulder replacement, and arthroscopy for conditions like frozen shoulder or impingement syndrome. In general, these and other shoulder procedures help treat shoulder injuries by repairing or replacing cartilage, tendons and ligaments, muscles, and joints.
Joint Position and General Hypermobility Affect Elbow Joint Congruence on Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Prospective Cohort Study
Patients with posterolateral rotational instability (PLRI) of the elbow exhibit a higher degree of joint incongruence on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) than patients without PLRI. However, the influence of joint hypermobility and position of the elbow in healthy participants is yet unknown.
Shoulder Pain When Throwing a Ball
To move your shoulder joint, the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones all have to move in a synchronized and stable pattern. Because of this, subtle abnormalities can lead to shoulder pain and discomfort when you are throwing or afterward.
Shoulder Blade Pain: Its Many Causes and Symptoms
Shoulder blade pain is commonly caused by a muscle strain but can also arise from rotator cuff tears, joint conditions like osteoarthritis, and acute shoulder injuries. In rare cases, the pain may signal a severe condition, like a heart attack or cancer.
