INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Venous aneurysms are rare diseases, and according to their locations, history will change. They will be diagnosed based on the clinical history and imaging modalities. The exact incidence of external jugular vein aneurysm remains controversial. In the neck, venous aneurysm has been reported most commonly in the internal jugular vein. Frequently the venous aneurysm has a fusiform shape, and the saccular type is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION: Here we present a case of the external jugular vein aneurysm which was misdiagnosed as a branchial cyst presented with gradual swelling in the left supraclavicular region...

Rotator cuff repair, acromioplasty, and biceps tenodesis operations have become some of the most common shoulder surgical procedures, evolving from open techniques to minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques. The use of many arthroscopic portals has been associated with surgical risks to many surrounding anatomic structures. We present an arthroscopic technique using a single anterolateral working portal for rotator cuff repair, acromioplasty, distal clavicle excision, and long head of the biceps tenodesis; this technique decreases the risk of injury to the surrounding neurovascular and musculotendinous structures, enables a faster recovery, and is minimally invasive...

PURPOSE: Symptomatic acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) osteoarthritis causes pain and limitations in activities of daily living. Open and arthroscopic distal clavicle excision techniques have been described with good outcomes. However, both techniques have their own sets of advantages and disadvantages. This study describes a novel technique of percutaneous distal clavicle excision for symptomatic ACJ osteoarthritis and our two-year results. METHODS: Fifteen consecutive patients underwent percutaneous distal clavicle excision for ACJ arthritis...

BACKGROUND: Acromioclavicular joint arthritis is a relatively common source of shoulder pain. The treatment options consist of conservative management and operative intervention depending on the severity and duration of the disease. Distal clavicle excision is the standard operative treatment and can be performed through either open or arthroscopic techniques. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome of arthroscopic resection of the distal clavicle. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a prospective study, conducted in a group of 50 patients in the Post-Gra-duate Department of Orthopaedics, Govt...

Pathology of the acromioclavicular joint is common and often resistant to conservative treatment, requiring distal clavicle excision for definitive relief. First described as an open technique by Mumford and Gurd in 1941, distal clavicle excision has evolved greatly, with arthroscopic techniques currently predominating. No significant difference has been found in patient satisfaction or rate of complication between the techniques in a recent meta-analysis. Indeed, open excisions are still performed at a high rate, owing to the difficulty in technique and visualization with arthroscopic methods...

PURPOSE: To conduct a scoping review to clarify the management of acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis, as well as to identify any existing gaps in the current knowledge. METHODS: Studies were identified by electronic databases (Ovid, Pubmed) from their inception up to April 2nd, 2020. All studies reporting functional outcomes after conservative or surgical treatment of acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis, either primary or secondary to trauma or distal clavicle osteolysis, were included...

The clavicle fractures are frequent, vascular injuries associated with closed fractures of clavicle are rare. The pseudoaneurysms of the subclavian artery constitute an exceptional complication. We report a case of a 40-year-old who presented an expanding hematoma of the right side of the neck after a road traffic accident. Radiography of the right shoulder showed a midclavicular fracture. An arterial doppler of vessels showed a circulating hematoma in the contact of the right subclavian artery with a correct distality flow...

BACKGROUND: Recent literature has focused on correlating statistically significant changes in outcome measures with clinically significant outcomes (CSOs). CSO benchmarks are being established for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR), but more remains to be defined about them.

There has been a shift in US health care to a system that emphasizes value. Patient-reported outcomes have become a critical component of that valuation. A 5-year quality improvement project at the community private practice level was undertaken to assess the authors' delivery of care and practice processes for shoulder surgery as compared with established standards. QuickDASH questionnaires were collected from 1304 consecutive shoulder surgery patients, and data were collected at 4 time points. Mean QuickDASH scores for each procedure and scores assessing biceps tenodesis, distal clavicle excision, workers' compensation status, and sex were analyzed for statistical significance...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the significance of untreated primary acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) osteoarthritis, encountered during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR), as a cause of persistent symptomatology and need for revision surgery. METHODS: In a cohort of 811 consecutive patients older than 55 years who underwent RCR, the effect of primary ACJ osteoarthritis presence was prospectively examined. A total of 497 patients with mild/moderate and severe ACJ osteoarthritis based on preoperative MRI evaluation were allocated to Group A (n = 185, symptomatic ACJ) and Group B (n = 312, asymptomatic ACJ)...

BACKGROUND & PURPOSE: The recent advances in anaesthesia and analgesia have significantly improved the early recovery and effective post-operative pain control in day care surgery e.g. shoulder arthroscopic procedures. Adequate analgesia improves the early rehabilitation for a better outcome. We prospectively evaluated the post-operative pain relief following the two methods of analgesia i.e. regional Inter-scalene block (ISB) vs Intra-articular (IA) injection using 0.5% Chirocaine in various therapeutic arthroscopic shoulder procedures...

Although chronic pain and dysfunction of the acromioclavicular (AC) joint can reliably be treated with distal clavicle excision, disruption of the local stabilizing ligamentous structures may result in iatrogenic instability of the joint. Iatrogenic AC joint instability is a rare condition caused by over resection of the distal clavicle with unintended injury to the stabilizing ligaments in the treatment of AC joint pain. Addressing postresection instability can prove to be difficult because most reconstruction techniques are intended for patients with traumatic AC joint instability with the goal of creating an anatomically stable joint...

BACKGROUND: An estimated 250,000 rotator cuff repair (RCR) surgical procedures are performed every year in the United States. Although arthroscopic RCR has been shown to be a cost-effective operation, little is known about what specific factors affect the overall cost of surgery. This study examines the primary cost drivers of RCR surgery in the United States.

Shoulder pain is a very common symptom especially in young and active population. Rotator cuff tendinopathies are believed to be the most common cause of shoulder pain up to 86%. Tumors around the shoulder area can cause pain or joint stiffness when expanding in the subacromial space. We present a rare case of a distal clavicle osteochondroma. It is a benign tumor which in this area causes supraspinatus tendinopathy and every physician should suspect this kind of diseases during the diagnostic approach of a shoulder pain...
