ABSTRACT Synovial chondromatosis is a benign arthropathy rarely seen in diarthrodial joints. Extra-articular bilateral symmetrical synovial chondromatosis of shoulder is the rarest variety. The diagnosis is established with the help of imaging modalities and histopathological examinations. This report de...
ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate and compare the results of single-row (SR) vs. double-row (DR) arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods: From December 2009 to May 2013, 115 arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs were performed using suture anchors. After applying the exclusion criteria, there were 75 patients...
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the correlation between the UCLA and Constant-Murley scores in the surgical treatment of rotator cuff tears and proximal humeral fractures (PHF). Methods: Retrospective study evaluating patients submitted to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and surgical treatment of PHF ...
