A collarwitharm cuffs forreducl|' tion of bilateral shoulder subluxation was developed for a 6lyear-old businessman who had good hand function, but in whom polymyositis with atrophy of the proximal muscles bilaterally hadresulted in severe shoulder subluxation and pain (Figure l). Other slings designed to reduce shoulder subluxation were unacceptable for our patient for the following reasons: l...

Subluxation of the hip is common in patients with intermediate spinal muscular atrophy. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the influence of surgery on pain and function, as well as the natural history of subluxed hips which were treated conservatively. Thirty patients were assessed clinically and radiologically. Of the nine who underwent surgery only one reported satisfaction and fou...

Hip arthrography was performed in 19 patients in the initial stage of Perthes' disease. Sphericity and subluxation were measured and it was found that subluxation was independent of the femoral head deformity. We therefore tried to identify the cause of early subluxation: in seven patients a swollen ligamentum teres was thought to be responsible, and was associated with medial pooling of the co...

We experienced a case of intraocular lens (IOL) luxation with the capsular bag after vitrectomy. The case was a 66-year-old female in whom an IOL was implanted one year after surgery for giant tear retinal detachment using silicone oil. Four years after the implantation surgery, the patient suffered subluxation of the IOL with the capsular bag. Examinations of the luxated IOL with the capsular ...

This article reviews the clinical entity of medial patellar subluxation, including relevant anatomic and biomechanical factors. Most cases of medial patellar subluxation occur as a late complication of lateral retinacuiar release. Symptoms include pain, disability, crepitus, and intermittent swelling. Clinical signs include subluxation of the patella with manual medial glide, an observable defe...

A Modified Iris Suture Technique for In-the-bag Intraocular Lens Dislocation Clinically significant posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) decentrations or dislocations occur in the aftermath of approximately 2% to 3% of cataract surgeries. Early inor out-of-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) dislocations arise within 3 months of surgery, primarily as a result of traumatic zonular or capsular r...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Subluxation is a significant problem in poststroke hemiplegia, resulting in pain and loss of function. Current treatments are not proved and not considered effective. It has been demonstrated that cyclical electrical stimulation of the shoulder muscles can reduce existing subluxation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether electrical stimulation could prevent ...

AIMS To evaluate the visual outcomes and complications after implantation of retrofixated iris claw (RFIC) lens in various challenging situations. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Retrospective, single centre, 8 year clinical audit. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of cases who underwent RFIC lens implantation alone (group 1) or in combination with vitreoretinal (VR), corneal or glaucoma p...

OBJECTIVE To report visual outcomes, complication rate, and safety of retropupillary iris-claw intraocular lens (ICIOL) in ectopia lentis in Marfan syndrome (MFS). DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS Six eyes of three MFS patients with ectopia lentis underwent surgery for subluxation lens and retropupillary ICIOL implantation from October 2014 to October 2015 at the Department of Ophthalmol...
