This case describes an early adolescent boy with severe pectus carinatum, managed a complex surgical approach after bracing was deemed unfeasible. A multidisciplinary team collaborated, using advanced three-dimensional (3D) imaging, digital segmentation and patient-specific 3D-printed model to plan rehearse the surgery. The operation involved sternum repositioning rib plating polyether ether ketone plates. procedure resulted in favourable chest stability minimal blood loss. Postoperatively,...
This study examined 2-year outcomes of patients who underwent delayed rotator cuff repair (RCR) compared with those RCR without delay.
Art as a way of healing is primordial in many cultures. Expressive Arts Therapy (ExAT) uses art, music, dance, and writing to help individuals navigate their journey. Patient self-expression mode recovery has been observed patients with Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) cancer.

In the setting of opioid crisis, managing postoperative pain without exclusive use opiates has become a topic interest. Many hospitals have begun implementing enhanced recovery after surgery protocols to decrease complications, hospital costs, and opiate utilization. Ketorolac been added many these protocols, but few studies examined its effects independently. A retrospective chart review was performed on all patients that received autologous breast reconstruction from October 2020 June 2022...
The impact of single-sport specialization on performance and injury risk in youth adolescent athletes remains debated. purpose this study was to determine the incidence its association with pitch velocity, pitcher utilization, range motion, strength, history.High school pitchers Northeastern, Southeastern, Midwestern, Western Regions United States were prospectively recruited. Prior season, surveyed about their basic demographics, sport participation history, history. At timepoint, a...
To clinically evaluate a subset of patients who underwent revision subpectoral biceps tenodesis for failed proximal tenodesis.This is retrospective case series with at least 2-year follow-up had undergone after clinical failure between January 2008 and February 2020 by single surgeon. Patients concomitant procedures, such as cuff repair, were excluded. minimum 2 years duration status postrevision contacted informed consent outcome data, which included Simple Shoulder Test, American Elbow...
HypothesisThe purpose of this study is to identify and compare demographic, clinical, historical, intraoperative variables in patients who have received arthroscopic treatment for single vs. multiple anterior shoulder dislocations.MethodsThis a retrospective chart review underwent labral repair the by six surgeons at institution between 2012 2020. Patients with documented dislocation were included. pain-only, subluxation-only, multidirectional or posterior instability, prior surgeries any...
Abstract Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic prompted an unprecedented contraction in surgical volume. This utilizes the American College of Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database to assess impact COVID-19 on breast reconstruction surgery volume and quality throughout 2020. Methods NSQIP was utilized gather data from 2015 We provide descriptive statistics form mean (standard deviation), median (interquartile range), range for...
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>BACKGROUND</bold> Our institution recently transitioned from paravertebral nerve blocks (PVB) to intercostal cryoablation (INC) for pain control following minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE). This study aimed determine how INC affected the operative time, length stay, complication rates, inpatient opioid use, and outpatient prescription opioids at a single center. <bold>METHODS</bold> A retrospective review was performed pediatric referral...
Objectives: Direct comparisons between the direction of shoulder instability as it pertains to clinical and demographic risk factors are lacking. The purpose this study is identify compare demographic, clinical, peri-operative variables in patients receiving arthroscopic treatment for anterior posterior instability. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed consecutive who underwent primary labral repair surgery with a minimum 2-year follow-up. Surgeries were by six surgeons at...
The optimal treatment of recurrent shoulder instability in skeletally immature athletes remains controversial, especially if there is significant growth remaining. Some investigators advocate conservative until patients are close to skeletal maturity, whereas others push for earlier surgery avoid further damage. objective this technical note describe a technique labral repair using an anchorless approach potential damage the glenoid physis.
Background: Abdominoplasty has consistently been one of the top cosmetic procedures performed each year with a high patient satisfaction rate. Excision excess abdominal skin shown to reduce low back pain and improve posture. The effects removal would, theoretically, be demonstrated through changes in gait. This study aimed measure kinematic differences during gait obtain objective measures for abdominoplasty. Methods: Subjects were recruited from large, academic plastic surgery clinic....
Pachyonychia congenita is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hypertrophic nail plates, hyperkeratotic beds, and thickened hyponychium of the fingers toes, impairing manual dexterity resulting in poor aesthetics. The current body literature describes various treatment modalities, but no singular approach has been defined as gold standard. In this case, authors employed different surgical techniques for treating pachyonychia to evaluate most effective approach. A 3-year-old boy presented...
