RECENT FINDINGS: Initial research focused on baseline demographic (e.g., age, sex, BMI) and meniscal tear characteristics to predict short- and medium-term outcomes. Recent investigations, however, have broadened this scope to include previously overlooked ancillary elements, such as socio-economic and psychological factors. Furthermore, non-meniscal anatomical features—including bony alignments and morphology, and joint stability—have been studied, along with surgical-related elements like the volume of resected tissue and the impact of specific surgical techniques. Crucially, long-term studies, some with over 20 years of follow up, are now available, offering a clearer understanding of the rates of symptomatic and asymptomatic osteoarthritic progression based on different baseline characteristics. While precisely predicting the clinical and radiological outcomes of APM remains challenging, this manuscript provides a comprehensive review of the most current evidence. It aims to help surgeons more adequately treat and counsel patients presenting with meniscal tears. Future research should prioritize developing and validating predictive algorithms that integrate the multitude of success and failure factors discussed in this review. </p>","PeriodicalId":10950,"journal":{"name":"Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13035976/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147572750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this review is to summarize when a disruption of the scapular force couple has a direct impact on the glenohumeral force couple and associated stability; how to diagnose this and ultimately treat it. RECENT FINDINGS: The coordinated motion between the two articulations, termed scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR), drives the shoulder to do many types of motions and function in many directions. The relationship between the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic articulations is not only important for shoulder function, but pathologic processes impacting one also impact the other. This can be seen in excessive scapular compensation in the setting of a rotator cuff tear, or excessive glenohumeral compensation in the setting of a paralyzed serratus anterior. This relationship is particularly important in the setting of recurrent shoulder instability, where scapulothoracic abnormal motion patterns predispose the glenohumeral joint to subluxate or dislocate. When the scapula either loses its ability to externally rotate, remains excessively protracted, or functions with abnormal uncoordinated motion patterns, its uncoordinated movement and resting position predisposes the shoulder joint to be unstable, particularly in the posterior direction. When addressing shoulder instability, it is critical to consider these motion patterns and address them when present, or the patient will be predisposed to continuing to have recurrent shoulder instability. In this review, we will highlight the critical role of glenohumeral and scapulothoracic dynamic force couples and muscle balances, as well as the important impact scapulothoracic pathology can have on glenohumeral joint stability. </p>","PeriodicalId":10950,"journal":{"name":"Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13022159/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147520015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Trochlear dysplasia has been identified as the most common anatomic risk factor for patellar instability and may be present in up to 90% of patients with lateral patellar instability. It presents across a spectrum of severity ranging from mild to severe. While multiple surgical treatment algorithms exist for managing patellar instability, trochleoplasty remains the only procedure that directly addresses the underlying trochlear pathology and restores normal patellar tracking. The purpose of this review is to highlight the critical role of trochlear dysplasia in patellar instability and to review the indications, surgical technique, and contemporary role of trochleoplasty in the management of this condition. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies report favorable short, mid and long term clinical outcomes following trochleoplasty in patients with lateral patellar instability associated with trochlear dysplasia. In parallel, emerging biomechanical and radiographic evidence has further clarified the role of trochlear dysplasia in increasing patellofemoral contact pressures and altering patellar tracking, while also demonstrating favorable radiographic outcomes following trochleoplasty. Together, these findings reinforce the importance of addressing the primary trochlear pathology in patients with lateral patellar instability, particularly in the setting of moderate- to high-grade trochlear dysplasia, and support a treatment paradigm that prioritizes correction of the underlying anatomic abnormality. Recent findings Lateral patellar instability is a multifactorial condition in which trochlear dysplasia represents a primary anatomic contributor to recurrent instability and altered patellofemoral biomechanics. Recent biomechanical, radiographic, and clinical evidence supports a pathology-driven approach to management, emphasizing the importance of directly addressing trochlear morphology in appropriately selected patients. Although the procedure is technically demanding, careful patient selection and surgeon expertise can result in good to excellent clinical outcomes and potential long-term preservation of patellofemoral cartilage. </p>","PeriodicalId":10950,"journal":{"name":"Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13022104/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147510359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although outcomes after ACL reconstruction have improved, growing evidence demonstrates persistent disparities related to biological sex, gender, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic factors. This review synthesizes recent literature examining how these factors influence ACL injury risk and outcomes, with the goal of identifying actionable gaps and future directions to improve equity in ACL management. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies confirm that female patients sustain ACL injuries at higher rates and experience inferior patient-reported outcomes and lower return-to-sport rates despite largely equivalent objective surgical outcomes. Recent work highlights neuromuscular and plyometric-based rehabilitation, psychological readiness, and adaptable rehabilitation environments as key modifiable contributors to these disparities. Racial and ethnic minority patients experience delayed surgical care, reduced rehabilitation utilization, and worse functional outcomes, with neighborhood-level socioeconomic deprivation and access-related barriers emerging as key modifiable contributors. Disparities in ACL outcomes arise from the interaction of biological risk, rehabilitation-dependent recovery, and structural barriers affecting access to timely surgery and postoperative care. Rehabilitation offers a critical, modifiable opportunity to reduce these gaps by optimizing neuromuscular recovery and ensuring equitable access to supervised therapy. Future progress will require prospective, sex-, race-, or ethnicity-stratified studies, integration of area-level socioeconomic metrics, and care pathways that address delays in evaluation, surgery, and rehabilitation. Earlier implementation of neuromuscular injury-prevention programs in youth and community-based settings may further reduce downstream disparities. </p>","PeriodicalId":10950,"journal":{"name":"Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12996464/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147472966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

RECENT FINDINGS: Recent literature on global orthopaedic education has largely focused on training exchanges involving high-income country (HIC) trainees in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with reported benefits including skills transfer and professional development alongside challenges related to continuity of care, resource burden, and limited reciprocity. However, despite growing consensus around equity and reciprocity, the perspectives of orthopaedic trainees and practicing surgeons in low-resource settings remain underrepresented in the current literature. Learners in low-resource settings valued international exchanges that provided structured teaching, subspecialty exposure, and access to higher-volume clinical environments. Virtual and simulation-based education demonstrated consistent improvements in knowledge and surgical skills despite technical and cost-related barriers. In-person and hybrid programs were associated with meaningful capacity-building benefits but required substantial resources, infrastructure, and long-term institutional commitment. Across all models, challenges related to infrastructure, cost, equity, and reciprocity remained. Notably, none of the included studies examined LMIC learner perspectives on bidirectional exchange with higher-resource settings, despite growing emphasis on reciprocity in contemporary partnership frameworks. These findings underscore the need for locally driven, sustainable global orthopaedic education partnerships with stronger outcome evaluation and greater LMIC leadership. </p>","PeriodicalId":10950,"journal":{"name":"Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12976155/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147431430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
