However, there are other possible causes for these symptoms, and secondary adaptive changes should also be considered in differential diagnosis. Understanding the pathophysiology of these symptoms and differential diagnosis of their potential origin is important for therapy. In addition to symptoms, the evaluation of potential impairments (altered cervical joint position and movement sense, static and dynamic balance, and ocular mobility and coordination) should become an essential part of the routine assessment of those with traumatic neck pain, including those with concomitant injuries such as concussion and vestibular or visual pathology or deficits. Once adequately assessed, appropriate tailored management should be implemented. Research to further assist differential diagnosis and to understand the most important contributing factors associated with abnormal cervical afferent input and a subsequent disturbance to the sensorimotor control system, as well as the most efficacious management of such symptoms and impairments, is important for the future.","PeriodicalId":73881,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics and sports medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69349608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long-term studies have demonstrated a correlation between the number of instability episodes and the risk of degenerative arthritis. In an effort to treat the unstable shoulder, orthopedic surgeons have described several different operations that may help to prevent recurrent subluxation or dislocation in chronic instability cases. This study has been undertaken to assess the short-term functional outcome of Arthroscopic repair of Bankart’s Lesion in patients with Chronic Anterior Instability of the Shoulder using Constant Murley’s Score. Material and Method: This prospective observational study was carried out at the National Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedic Rehabilitation (NITOR), from July 2017 to June 2019. Twenty cases of chronic anterior shoulder dislocation meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were taken in this study and underwent arthroscopic repair of bankart lesion. Here, 3 or 4 anchors were used. Cases were followed up for 6 months. The outcome was assessed with Constant Murley Scoring. Results: The mean age was 26.716.83 years with a male predominance (95%). Most cases were students (50%) and the main cause of injury was sports (50%). The mean recurrence number was 10.65 ± 4.75 times and was significantly associated with decreasing age. The mean interval between 1 injury and surgery was 3 ± 1.89 years. Bankart lesions were found in 20% of cases in pre-operative imaging. At the final follow-up, 2 (10%) cases of limited movement were found. In 18 (90%) cases, 3 anchors were used. Finally, there was significant improvement regarding pain status, activity of daily living, forward flexion, abduction, external rotation, internal rotation and power of shoulder muscle. In the last follow-up, 2 (10%) cases of limited movement were found. The mean CMS pre-operatively and post-operatively were 63.05 ± 5.23 and 88.25 6.29 respectively (p<0.05). In the final outcome, 16 (80%) scored excellent, 3 (15%) were found good and 1 (5%) was found poor. Conclusion: It may be concluded that arthroscopic Repair of Bankart Lesion with suture anchors in chronic anterior instability of the shoulder is a safe surgery regardless of shoulder function or range of motion.","PeriodicalId":73881,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics and sports medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69349795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The PIN innervates the extensor muscles of the forearm, while also sending sensory fibers to the dorsal wrist capsule, and iatrogenic injury during surgical exposure can compromise these functions. Thus, a thorough understanding of how to localize the PIN with anatomic landmarks is needed to best avoid this complication. The literature describes utilizing the radiocapitellar joint, radial tuberosity, lateral epicondyle, and the transepicondylar distance to localize the PIN. Moreover, pronation relocates the PIN to more distal position due to tethering within the supinator muscle, and this protects the nerve regarding surgical work in the lateral elbow vicinity, such as on the radial head and neck. In this review, we report the literature describing the strategies to localize the PIN from anatomic landmarks with respect to surgical approaches of the lateral elbow.","PeriodicalId":73881,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics and sports medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69349824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hyperlipidemia is a predisposing factor in the progression of rotator cuff tears and retear. We studied the effect of hyperlipidemia on the biomechanical properties of rotator cuff tendons. The infraspinatus tendon of the rotator cuff from hyperlipidemic swine were collected and tested for ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and modulus of elasticity. Dynamic mechanical analysis was performed to examine viscoelastic properties. The findings revealed no significant difference in UTS but had significantly lower modulus of elasticity in the infraspinatus tendon of the hyperlipidemic group compared to the control group. Moreover, differences in the dynamic modulus, storage modulus, and loss modulus were not statistically significant between the hyperlipidemic and control swine. There was no difference in water content between the groups but the hyperlipidemic group had fatty infiltration aiding the initial decrease in mechanical properties. These findings suggest an association between fat deposition and early changes in the biomechanical properties of the tendons in the shoulder rotator cuff in hyperlipidemic state.","PeriodicalId":73881,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics and sports medicine","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135059044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pancreaticobiliary duct disorders like choledocholithiasis, acute and chronic pancreatitis are also well investigated with MRI. MRI services are unavailable at the Ho Teaching Hospital (HTH), a major referral hospital, and one of the five teaching hospitals in Ghana. The clinical implication of this is that patients who need MRI services have to travel long distances to other hospitals to access MRI services. The lack of MRI services at the HTH makes the diagnoses of critical medical conditions difficult, and in some cases, impossible.
