Background: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been studied with the objective of reducing retear rate and improving functional outcomes after rotator cuff repair. Only one study to date reported its midterm effect. Hypothesis: PRP promotes better structural results in arthroscopic Study Design: Randomized controlled trial; Level evidence, 2. Methods: All patients underwent single-row repair small medium supraspinatus tears. At end surgical procedure, liquid prepared by apheresis autologous...

Resilience is emerging as a significant factor in orthopedic outcomes, including rotator cuff repair (RCR). However, its influence on postoperative recovery, particularly different cultural and socioeconomic contexts, remains underexplored. This retrospective cohort study included 105 patients who underwent arthroscopic RCR completed the Brief Scale (BRS). Clinical outcomes were assessed using American Shoulder Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score at 24 months, with secondary evaluations of...

Objectives: To evaluate clinical and radiographic outcomes complications of three- four-part proximal humerus fractures (PHF) in elderly patients treated with angular locking plate (LP) combined calcium sulfate (CaSO4) paste graft. Materials methods: A prospective case series evaluating aged ≥ 60 years or PHF LP 10 ml CaSO4 Primary outcome was evaluation using the Constant-Murley (CM) score at 12 months. Secondary included scores from University California, Los Angeles (UCLA), American...

Introduction Adhesive capsulitis, or "frozen shoulder," is characterized by pain and significant functional limitation. It predominantly affects individuals over 40 years old commonly associated with systemic conditions such as diabetes mellitus thyroid disorders. Imaging studies, particularly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may help understand structural changes linked to mobility restrictions. Methods This retrospective study analyzed patients clinically diagnosed adhesive capsulitis...

Studies suggest that the collagen degeneration and disordered arrangement of fibers in rotator cuff tears are associated with an increase activity matrix metalloproteases 1 3 (MMP-1 MMP-3), MMP may be part genetically mediated. The degree to which this might clinically relevant patients has not been well characterized.(1) Is genetic polymorphism MMP-1 MMP-3 tears? (2) Are there haplotypes correlated (3) Compared control subjects, do have a higher proportion relatives same disease?We...

Limited knowledge exists regarding prognostic factors after rotator cuff repair.To identify pre- and perioperative predictors for functional outcomes arthroscopic repair.Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3.This study included patients who underwent repair between January 2013 April 2019 had preoperative magnetic resonance imaging scans. The procedures were performed by 4 shoulder surgeons at a single institution. Excluded previous surgeries, those open surgery, without 12- 24-month...

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To describe shoulder disorders in patients evaluated by two and elbow surgeons. METHODS: This cross-sectional study analyzed authors, excluding acute fractures dislocations with symptoms not involving the shoulder. Age sex distribution was determined for different diagnoses. RESULTS: We 1001 patients. Mean age 51.43±15.15 years 51.0% were female. Disorders of rotator cuff occurred 64.3% (41.2% tendinopathy, 11.0% partial tears 12.2% full-thickness tears). Adhesive...

OBJECTIVE: To identify prognostic factors of postoperative functional outcomes. METHODS: Retrospective case series evaluating patients undergoing rotator cuff repair, analyzed by the UCLA score (pre and 12-month postoperative) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (preoperative). Patients' intrinsic variables related to injury intervention were evaluated. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed determine impact on assessment. RESULTS: 131 included. The mean increased from 13.17 ± 3.77...
