Randomized Controlled TrialEfficacy of multimodal analgesia injection combined with corticosteroids after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
Although arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is minimally invasive, there is still considerable postoperative pain, especially during the first 48 hours. The present study assessed the short-term efficacy and safety of multimodal analgesic (MMA) injection associated to corticosteroids in arthroscopic rotator cuff tear surgery. ⋯ 2.

Multicenter Study Comparative StudyIs coracoclavicular stabilisation alone sufficient for the endoscopic treatment of severe acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Rockwood types III, IV, and V)?
The primary objective was to evaluate correlations linking anatomical to functional outcomes after endoscopically assisted repair of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation (ACJD). ⋯ II, prospective non-randomised comparative study.

Ten-year follow-up of acute arthroscopic Bankart repair for initial anterior shoulder dislocation in young patients.
Early treatment of initial anterior glenohumeral dislocation in young patients is controversial and the interest of surgery, and notably arthroscopic stabilization, has not been demonstrated. A prospective study was therefore performed to assess (1) short-to-medium-term recurrence rate, (2) functional outcome, and (3) and medium-term osteoarthritis rate. ⋯ IV, prospective non-comparative study.

Arthroscopic treatment of acute acromioclavicular dislocations using a double button device: Clinical and MRI results.
Arthroscopic treatment of acute grade 3 and 4 acromioclavicular dislocation is controversial, due to the risk of recurrence and of postoperative reduction defect. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether the healing of the acromioclavicular (AC) and coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments and the accurate 3D positioning parameters of the AC joint using MRI were correlated with satisfactory functional outcome. ⋯ Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Does primary total knee arthroplasty for acute knee joint fracture maintain autonomy in the elderly? A retrospective study of 21 cases.
Due to poor results and failure encountered in osteosynthesis of peri-articular fracture of the knee, arthroplasty may be suggested to osteopenic elderly subjects. All osteosynthesis techniques entail loss of independence and are associated with elevated mortality. No studies definitively establish better management of such fractures. ⋯ IV, retrospective study.
