BackgroundArthroscopic sub-acromial decompression (decompressing the space by removing bone spurs and soft tissue arthroscopically) is a common surgery for subacromial shoulder pain, but its effectiveness uncertain. We did study to assess investigate mechanism surgical decompression.MethodsWe multicentre, randomised, pragmatic, parallel group, placebo-controlled, three-group trial at 32 hospitals in UK with 51 surgeons. Participants were patients who had pain least 3 months intact rotator...
BackgroundManipulation under anaesthesia and arthroscopic capsular release are costly invasive treatments for frozen shoulder, but their effectiveness remains uncertain. We compared these two surgical interventions with early structured physiotherapy plus steroid injection.MethodsIn this multicentre, pragmatic, three-arm, superiority randomised trial, patients referred to secondary care treatment of primary shoulder were recruited from 35 hospital sites in the UK. Participants adults (≥18...
Posterolateral rotatory instability is the most common type of symptomatic chronic elbow. In this condition forearm complex rotates externally in relation to humerus, causing posterior subluxation or dislocation radial head. The lateral ligament complex, head and coronoid process are important constraints posterolateral instability, their disruption involved pathogenesis condition. diagnosis relies on a high index clinical suspicion, active passive apprehension tests, examination under...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the intra- and inter-observer variation Schatzker AO/OTA classifications in assessing tibial plateau fractures, using plain radiographs.Fifty fractures were classified independently by six observers as per classifications, antero-posterior lateral radiographs. Assessment done on two occasions, 8 weeks apart.We found that both have a high intra-observer (kappa = 0.57 0.53, respectively), 0.41 0.43, respectively) variation. Classification into unicondylar...
