Bilateral posterior fracture-dislocation of the shoulder is a very rare injury. Almost 50% bilateral dislocations are due to convulsive seizure, rising 90% if associated with fractures. Electric shock accounts for less than 5% shoulder. A systematization clinical and radiological approach, followed by an early diagnosis proper surgical treatment essential. Authors report 2 cases shoulder, one caused seizure other electric shock. review literature protocol also presented.
Background: Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with a locking plate is popular surgical treatment for proximal humeral fractures (PHF). This study aimed to assess the occurrence of complications in elderly patients PHF treated surgically using ORIF investigate potential differences between by “shoulder surgeons” “non-shoulder surgeons.”Methods: A retrospective was conducted single-center database identify aged ≥70 years who underwent January 1, 2011, December 31, 2021. Data on Neer...
Abstract Background Isolated greater tuberosity (GT) fractures typically occur in younger patients following high-energy trauma compared to humeral neck fractures. Surgical treatment is indicated when superior displacement > 5 mm. This study aimed assess the complications and long-term outcomes of surgically-treated GT Methods A retrospective review 39 who underwent surgery from 2010 2014 was conducted. The cohort comprised 54.6% females, with an average age 56.74 years a median follow-up...
The optimal treatment of displaced proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) in the older people population remains controversial. Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is a popular surgical option that provides improved and reproducible results. However, relevance fracture-specific stem designs for RSA to improve tuberosity consolidation function debatable.This study included all patients 70 years or with acute PHFs primarily treated at single institution Portugal, between January 2010 December 2019...
The objective of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes a short stem reverse shoulder prosthesis with metaphyseal fixation specifically in older patients.
Modifications of the medialized design Grammont-type reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) using a bony increased offset (BIO-RSA) has shown better clinical results and fewer complications. The aim this study is to compare results, complications, radiological outcomes between patients undergoing standard RSA BIO-RSA.A retrospective review was performed 42 procedures (22 20 BIO-RSA). With minimum 1 year follow-up, range motion (ROM), Constant score (CSS), visual analog scale (VAS), subjective...
Diet and gastric cancer mortality in Portugal was studied using a multivariate ecological model. The factors investigated over 18 districts were the relationship between (1994-96), dietary habits, socio-economic (1980-81). Mortality geographical pattern established age-standardized rates, per capita consumption of foodstuffs nutrients obtained from National Alimentary Survey (1980-81), data on 1981 Census. Pearson correlation coefficients simple multiple linear regression models used....
OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo consiste em rever os casos submetidos a tratamento cirúrgico por duas técnicas: trapezectomia com ou sem ligamentoplastia e artroplastia implante. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliadas 52 mãos tratadas cirurgicamente rizartrose entre 1995 2008: 32 trapezectomias (grupo A) 20 artroplastias implante B). Follow-up médio: grupo A - 72 meses, B 23 meses. Não houve resultados significativamente diferentes quanto à dor, atividades da vida diária, mobilidade força. No...
The aim of this study was to review cases that underwent surgical treatment using two techniques: trapeziectomy with or without ligamentoplasty and arthroplasty implant.Fifty-two hands were surgically treated for rhizarthrosis between 1995 2008 evaluated: 32 (group A) 20 implant B). mean follow-up group A 72 months B, 23 months. There no significantly different results regard pain, activities daily living, mobility strength. In the radiographic evaluation, it found scaphometacarpal height...
Resumo Objetivo Comparar os resultados funcionais entre pacientes com fratura complexa do úmero proximal submetidos a artroplastia reversa tubérculos consolidados e não consolidados. O objetivo secundário foi determinar taxa de consolidação dos este tipo prótese. Métodos Estudo coorte, retrospectivo, coleta prospectiva dados. No total, 28 cumpriram critérios inclusão: idade superior 65 anos, prótese ombro por (3 ou 4 partes, segundo Neer), tempo seguimento mínimo 24 meses. Aos seis meses,...
The Bristow-Latarjet procedure became the cornerstone treatment for anterior shoulder instability with significant glenoid bone loss. “triple locking effect” include reconstruction of concavity, tendinomuscular subscapularis lock-up and capsular repair. With arising minimal invasive techniques like arthroscopy, it is important to assure its noninferiority compared conventional approaches in terms graft positioning, nonunion or osteolysis, screw postoperative pain, recurrence, minor...
PURPOSEThe purpose of this study was to establish consensus statements via a Delphi process on the factors that should be included in registry for those patients undergoing rotator cuff tear treatment.METHODSA treatment utilizing modified technique conducted. Fifty-seven surgeons completed these and 9 declined. The participants were members European Society Surgery Shoulder Elbow (SECEC-ESSSE) committees representing 23 countries. Thirteen questions generated regarding diagnosis follow-up...
The implications of notching in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), and its relation with the rate complications are still unclear. Our main aim was to retrospectively study incidence three most used implants our practice, considering their different neck-shaft angle (NSA) determine implant failure, or other complications.
Case: This is a case of 28-year-old CrossFit athlete who was observed at the emergency department after competition with acute right shoulder pain. After investigation, she claimed some posterior tightness for past month, without any trauma associated. imaging study, we diagnosed scapula stress fracture. 8 weeks rest, pain free and returned to sports. Conclusion: Stress fracture should be considered in differential diagnosis overhead activities athletes. illustrates an excellent prognosis...
Shoulder hemiarthroplasty is a viable option in young patients with an intact rotator cuff order to preserve the native glenoid. To avoid dreaded and expected wear of glenoid very active shoulders, implants humeral head coated high resistant elastic material—pyrolytic carbon—are now option. The authors present first pyrocarbon hemishoulder arthroplasty performed at our Orthopedic Department patient osteonecrosis head. At three years follow-up, pain free without limitations his daily work....
Objectivos: O tratamento consensual na doença articular avançada da metacarpofalângica é a artroplastia com interposição de prótese. objectivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o resultado das artroplastias silicone realizadas em mãos reumatóides, no serviço Ortopedia do Hospital Santo António, nos últimos 15 anos. Material e método: foram revistas 124 próteses 26 doentes operados anos, avaliando-os clínica radiologicamente, aplicação escalas algoritmos avaliação dor, função pré pós operatória,...
