Irreducible acute anterior shoulder dislocation due to rotator cuff tear and associated fracture of the greater tuberosity: A method of open reduction and rotator cuff repair
A 67-year-old man sustained an anterior dislocation of his right shoulder following a fall down the stairs. He attended the Casualty Department 4 days after his injury. On examination he had no neurovascular injury. Radiographs confirmed anteroinferior dislocation of the shoulder with a comminuted fracture of the greater tuberosity (Fig. 1). Two attempts at closed reduction, under sedation, fai...
متن کاملArthroscopic grafting of greater tuberosity cyst and rotator cuff repair.
Cysts of the greater tuberosity can be a normal finding independent of age and concurrent rotator cuff tear. The presence of a large greater tuberosity cyst can present a challenge at the time of rotator cuff repair. We present a 1-step arthroscopic technique to address these defects at the time of rotator cuff repair using a synthetic graft (OsteoBiologics, San Antonio, TX) originally designed...
متن کاملArthroscopic repair of complete tear of rotator cuff
Abstract Background: Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common causes of shoulder complaints in the elderly. Based on the severity and patient's condition, a variety of methods applies to manage the tear and surgery is an important method, which could be done by open or arthroscopic technique. The current study aimed to investigate and report short-term results of arthroscopic repair of...

متن کاملIn vivo microstructural analysis of the humeral greater tuberosity in patients with rotator cuff tears using multidetector row computed tomography
BACKGROUND In arthroscopic surgery, the suture anchor technique has become popular for rotator cuff repair. Preoperative evaluation of the bone microstructure is of utmost importance because, especially in elderly patients, osteoporotic changes may cause anchor pullout, which results in failure of rotator cuff repair. Many groups have reported humeral microstructural analysis; however, most stu...
