Background: Oxford shoulder score is a specific 12-item patient-reported tool for evaluation of patients with inflammatory and degenerative disorders of the shoulder. Since its introduction, it has been translated and culturally adapted in some Western and Eastern countries. The aim of this study was to translate the Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) in Persian and to test its validity and reliabilit...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this prospective study was to assess the immediate and long-term effectiveness of arthroscopic capsular release in a large cohort of patients with a precise and isolated diagnosis of stage II idiopathic frozen shoulder. METHODS All patients underwent a preoperative evaluation. Patients with secondary frozen shoulder and those with concurrent pathology at arthroscopy we...

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and frequency of return sport after arthroscopic repair a humeral avulsion inferior glenohumeral ligament (HAGL) lesion. Web Science, Scopus, Medline via PubMed OVID were searched identify relevant citations. Screening data extraction performed independently. The Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software was used for all statistical analyses (CMA; U...

PURPOSE To determine whether arthroscopic remplissage with Bankart repair is an effective treatment strategy for patients with Bankart lesions and large Hill-Sachs defects. METHODS Between 2006 and 2008, 20 patients underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage for the treatment of recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability and large Hill-Sachs defects. Preoperative imaging in all p...

BACKGROUND The results of open and arthroscopic instability repairs have been shown to be equivalent in recent literature. PURPOSE To compare the time to recurrence (TTR) of instability and disease-specific outcome measures in patients undergoing open and arthroscopic Bankart repair. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients with recurrent traumatic anterior should...

Treating shoulder multidirectional instability with an open stabilization procedure has been reported to have good results. However, few studies exist of arthroscopic plication, especially in overhead athletes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic pancapsular plication for multidirectional instability in overhead athletes.Twenty-three athletes with sym...

  Background: Open Bankart surgery is the main treatment procedure in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, especially in cases with glenoid bone defect. The goal of this study was to determine the outcomes after open Bankart surgery in cases of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with glenoid bone defects and concomitant Hill-Sachs lesions. Methods: Between 2006 and 2010,...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to analyze results of arthroscopic stabilization with labral repair in a subset of patients with multidirectional shoulder instability and frank labral tear. METHODS A review of 13 patients (10 male and 3 female; mean age, 27.2 years) with multidirectional instability involving a labral tear of 270 degrees or greater requiring arthroscopic labral repair w...

conclusions bosworth screw and tension band wiring are both useful procedures in patients with acj dislocation, but each should be used in the selected patients with special indications. both methods had good results during follow-up period. there was not statistically meaningful difference in the articular stability, range of motion, oss score and vast score between the two groups (p > 0.05). ...
