  • Clinical results of reverse shoulder arthroplasty after failed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to primary cases: a case control study

    Posted on: 08-Sep-2025

    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.

  • Benefits and limitations of diagnostic shoulder arthroscopy for painful anatomical shoulder arthroplasty investigation

    Posted on: 27-Jul-2025

    Shoulder arthroscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for painful anatomical shoulder arthroplasty offering some therapeutic opportunities. It has been demonstrated as a sensitive option to diagnose periprosthetic joint infection and is most frequently used for this purpose. Additionally, it offers the possibility of diagnosing some complications after shoulder arthroplasty such as component loosening or rotator cuff failure. As therapeutic options are mostly limited to arthrolysis, and débridement and decompression, most patients will have to face a revision arthroplasty. Nevertheless, diagnostic arthroscopy provides a valuable tool to gain information on the cause of the symptoms to determine further steps of treatment.

  • How tennis takes a toll: The leg and foot injuries players need to watch out for

    Posted on: 27-Jul-2025

    Tennis demands explosive movement like lunges, pivots, sprints and sudden stops. Every serve starts with a push from the toes. Every rally shifts weight between the heel and forefoot.
