Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases were searched for reviews, clinical studies, and case reports of complications associated with ARCR. Reference lists of selected articles were also screened. The terminology of complications and their definitions were extracted from all relevant original articles by a single reviewer and verified by a second reviewer. Definitions o...

Dear Sir, Although firearm injuries are rare among penetrating traumas in children, they are very important in terms of their complications. Many thoracic complications may arise during spinal trauma caused by gunshot wounds.[1] Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak is one of the serious complications of gunshot wounds.[1] Here, we present a 10‐year‐old girl admitted to our Pediatric Intensive Care Un...

The purpose of this report was to evaluate patient outcomes after treatment of acute midshaft clavicle fractures with an intramedullary Hagie pin, including clinical results and the incidence of postoperative complications. Between 1993 and 2003, 16 patients who underwent intramedullary Hagie pin fixation of a midshaft clavicle fracture were identified. The medical records of each patient were ...

Shoulder pain resulting from hemiplegia is a common clinical consequence of a focal cerebral insult resulting from a vascular lesion (ie. hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke). Painful hemiplegic shoulder can occur as early as 2 weeks post stroke but an onset time of 2-3 months post stroke is more typical. Shoulder pain can negatively affect rehabilitation outcomes as good shoulder function is a prer...

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to assess the medical complications in first-time ischemic stroke patients, to identify the factors related to occurrence of complications. [Subjects and Methods] First-time ischemic stroke patients (n=81) admitted to a tertiary level inpatient rehabilitation center during a 5 year period were included in the study.

Background: C ompression plates and intramedullary nails are the devices for humeral shaft fracture stabilization. “The nailing has been associated with post operative shoulder pain and stiffness due to impingement from prominent implants. Plate fixationreduced the risk of shoulder problems and may also reduce the risk of reoperation and shoulder impingement.” Objective:To “compare the outcomes...

Despite improvements in glenoid prosthesis design, materials and surgical techniques, complications related to the glenoid component continue to be a leading cause of failure after total shoulder arthroplasty. Although previously felt to be of little clinical significance, radiolucent lines around the glenoid prosthesis are now recognized as a sign of impending mid and long term fixation proble...

UNLABELLED The study's objective is to evaluate the characteristics and problems of patients who underwent shoulder arthroplasties between July 2004 and November 2006. METHODOLOGY During the period of the study, 145 shoulder arthroplasties were performed. A prospective protocol was used for every patient; demographic, clinical and surgical procedure data were collected. All gathered data were...

Background Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty is an increasingly utilized treatment option for glenohumeral arthritis with massive, irreparable rotator cuff disruption associated with loss of glenohumeral stability and function. Several reverse shoulder implant designs from different manufacturers have been introduced to the market in recent years. Fixation of the glenoid base plate has been s...
