The aim of this study was to analyze the outcomes of arthroscopic subscapularis tendon repair combined with coracoplasty in the treatment. The study involved 80 patients (46 males, 34 females; aged 33 to 73 years), who underwent arthroscopic repair for subscapularis tears (type I, II, and III) presenting symptoms of anterior shoulder pain and tenderness.
Your labrum is soft tissue that connects the socket part of the scapula (called the glenoid) with the head of the humerus. A tear in the labrum results in insufficient cushioning between those bones.
The biceps muscle is a large muscle in the front of the arm that gives you strength when bending the elbow, and it also plays an important role in shoulder function. There are several problems that can occur with the biceps tendon that may lead to the development of shoulder pain.
If you’re an active person, or even a sports fan, you’ve probably heard of a torn meniscus. It’s a common knee injury, particularly among athletes. But what is it, exactly?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a request for a supplemental Biologics License Application for the repair of knee cartilage defects using arthroscopic delivery of the autologous cultured chondrocytes on a porcine collagen membrane.
