Fractures of the dorsal articular margin of the distal part of the radius with dorsal radiocarpal subluxation.
Fractures of the volar articular margin of the distal part of the radius with volar radiocarpal subluxation (Barton fractures) are well recognized, and substantial data are available to guide their treatment. In contrast, fractures of the dorsal articular margin of the distal part of the radius with dorsal radiocarpal subluxation (sometimes referred to as dorsal or reverse Barton fractures) are rarely mentioned, and there are very little data to guide their treatment. ⋯ Therapeutic Level IV.

The number of total shoulder arthroplasties has increased exponentially over the last ten years, creating a more prominent role for revision shoulder arthroplasty in the future. The main reasons for failure of shoulder arthroplasty can be classified as soft-tissue deficiencies, osseous deficiencies, component wear, or infection. We hypothesized that, despite appropriate surgical techniques, the outcome of revision total shoulder replacement can be predicted on the basis of the indication for the revision procedure. ⋯ Prognostic Level II.
