Case Reports[Both the medial and lateral meniscal allograft transplantation following the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction by arthroscopic surgical technique].
To discuss the minimal invasive arthroscopic surgery technique and clinical results of both the medial and lateral meniscal transplantation following the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with double bundles and bone tunnels. ⋯ Both the medial and lateral meniscal transplantation following the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in appropriately selected patients with the medial and lateral meniscus-deficient knee may recover the knee mechanic balance and stability, which is a option of treatment for that young and activity patients. It is proposed that the medial and lateral meniscal grafts harvested from a single donator. Attention should be paid to the direction of the bone tunnels fixing the horns of the meniscus in order to avoid communication with the tunnels of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

[The application of cervical arthroplasty with Mobi-C for treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy].
To investigate the clinical effectiveness of cervical arthroplasty with Mobi-C prosthesis for treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy. ⋯ Cervical arthroplasty with Mobi-C could improve neurofunctional symptoms, maintain ROM of index level and height of disc space. For accurate patient selection, long term follow-up is still needed in prospective randomized study.

[Selective thoracic fusion in the scoliosis associated with syringomyelia].
To evaluate the surgical results of selective thoracic fusion (STF) for scoliosis associated with syringomyelia. ⋯ STF could be safely performed in scoliosis associated with syringomyelia. Thoracolumbar/lumbar curve in these patients has similar spontaneous correction ability compared with idiopathic scoliosis patients. The satisfactory result could be achieved according to the STF criteria for IS.

[Arthroscopic Bankart repair with suture anchors: results and risk factors of recurrence of instability].
To evaluate retrospectively the results of arthroscopic Bankart repair using suture anchors for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with a minimum 1-year follow-up and to assess risk factors for recurrence. ⋯ Arthroscopic Bankart repair is a good option for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Identification of risk factors for recurrence allows for consideration of open stabilization. In the series, patients under age 20 and athlete patients are the most important risk factors for recurrence.
