BACKGROUND: Rotator cuff injuries result in impaired functionality of the shoulder. The difference in shoulder functionality in patients treated with arthroscopy who required open surgery is still unknown. OBJECTIVE: To determine if there is a difference in the functional evolution of the shoulder in patients who underwent surgery due to rotator cuff lesion which began with arthroscopy and ended in open surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cohort, longitudinal, observational and comparative study was carried out...

BACKGROUND: Rotator cuff injury occurs over tendons that insert into the humeral tuberosity. Ultrasonography detects the size and extent of tendon tears. Its sensitivity and specificity range from 91-100% and 85-86%, respectively. It has been shown that a trained orthopedic surgeon can perform shoulder ultrasonography for the accurate diagnosis of rotator cuff pathology. OBJECTIVE: To determine the concordance between ultrasound-arthroscopy of the shoulder in rotator cuff injuries at the Unidad Médica Atención Ambulatoria No...

PURPOSE: To determine outcomes after hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) at a minimun 10-year follow up and identified risk factors for revision surgery. METHODS: Retrospective study of a prospective database of patients undergoing HA between January 2010 and December 2011. Rim chondral injuries were evaluated using the acetabular labral articular disruptions system (ALAD). Clinical and radiological data was obtained. Cumulative survival was estimated by Kaplan-Meier and a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model...

OBJECTIVE: The most common cause of shoulder pain is clinical pictures related to rotator cuff problems. One of the most common treatments is arthroscopic surgery. The objective was to describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients undergoing this type of surgery in Spain. METHODS: A descriptive, observational and cross-sectional study with ninety participants was carried out. Data on age, sex, performance of work activity with overuse of upper limbs, body mass index (BMI), smoking habit, diagnosis of diabetes, performance of physical-sports activity and history of pre-surgical treatments were collected...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to examine the clinical utility of the radiographic evaluation of the bicipital groove in predicting long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) pathology. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective study was conducted, and sixty consecutive patients proposed to shoulder arthroscopic surgery were selected. Before surgery, a radiographic evaluation was performed with a supine and a Fisk radiograph. Most supine radiographs (>75%) were non-interpretable and were excluded from the study...

INTRODUCTION: gonarthrosis is a degenerative disease, whose loss of cartilage causes changes in the adjacent bone and its response produces deformations and attempts at regeneration. In 1934 Meyer and Palmer isolated bovine vitreous humor, a polysaccharide called hyaluronic acid, which has the property of visco-elasticity. Today, multiple procedures performed in orthopedics are known, in order to limit the degenerative process that this entails. OBJECTIVE: to know the use and efficacy of hyaluronic acid in the patient requiring knee arthroscopy, evaluating the evolution of the patient using the WOMAC scale; as well as the ideal time of application of hyaluronic acid in this study group...

INTRODUCTION: The application of enhanced recovery in shoulder surgery has not had such a favorable acceptance, therefore, the objective of this study was to present and describe the use of interscalene block to promote enhanced recovery in a series of patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopic surgery. METHODS: Thirty-five patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery were included, in whom interscalene blockade and sedation were administered. Subsequently, pain intensity, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, presence of Horner's syndrome, blurred vision, hoarseness, time elapsed to discharge, unplanned readmissions, patient satisfaction, and compliance with hospital discharge criteria in the first 12 weeks were evaluated, hours following the criteria of an enhanced recovery...

Background and objective The use of arthroscopy for tibial plateau fractures type I, II and III according to Schatzker classification has increased, yet its employment for tibial plateau fractures Schatzker IV, V and VI is controversial due to the potential risk of compartment syndrome, deep vein thrombosis and infection. We aimed to compare the rate of operative and postoperative complications among patients with these types of tibial plateau fractures treated with and without arthroscopy at the time of definitive reduction and osteosynthesis...

UNLABELLED: The effective relief of postsurgical pain in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy is important to allow the initiation of activities of daily living. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the analgesic efficacy of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant added to ropivacaine by the intra-articular route. METHODS: 70 patients underwent knee arthroscopy which were randomly assigned into 2 groups (n = 35). The RD group received ropivacaine 1.5mg / kg plus dexmedetomidine 1μg / kg intra-articularly...

OBJECTIVE: Describe the population incidence of hip arthroscopy from 1998 to 2018 and to project the trends for the year 2030, as well as to describe the variations in the population incidence between the autonomous communities. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A retrospective review of the minimum basic data set from 1998-2018 was carried out. Temporal evolution was analyzed and the variables associated with the indication (age, sex, regions) were identified. For each region, the crude rate per 100,000 inhabitants was calculated...

OBJECTIVE: To carry out a review of degenerative subscapularis ruptures (SSC) after their arthroscopic repair and to evaluate whether the results are comparable in terms of pain and function to those of younger patients with traumatic ruptures. METHODS: The data of 80 SSC tears of the 660 rotator cuff tears operated on by the same team of surgeons from June 2008 to June 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical data of the surgical indications were collected: age, gender, laterality, intervention delay, associated pathologies, location of pain, value of the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Constant-Murley test (CMT); surgical data were also collected: type and size of lesion, associated biceps injury and associated surgical procedure, coracoid stenosis and associated surgical procedure, number and type of anchors used...

BACKGROUND: Arthroscopic tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with a retrograde nail is performed as a minimally invasive technique in patients without improvement in conservative treatment of osteoarthritis. Complications and hospital stay after surgery are less using this technique when they are compared with open ones. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We review retrospectively from 2016 to 2019 seven patients subjected to a posterior arthroscopic tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with a retrograde intramedullary nail...
