Failure of a greater tuberosity fracture fixation with screws can lead to stiffness, pain, and weakness of the rotator cuff. Management of a previously performed open greater tuberosity fracture fixation with screws involves implant removal and refixation of the fragment. Doing this arthroscopically in a previously performed open surgery has its own challenges but distinct advantages. Describe herein is a technique for performing this revision surgery arthroscopically.The results of conservative treatment of displaced proximal humerus fractures are not satisfactory. Open reconstruction and rigid internal fixation, as well as arthroscopic-assisted reduction and internal fixation, are possible in selected cases, mostly young patients. Older patients with osteoporotic, comminuted bone accounts for 70% of the cases. We present an arthroscopic reduction and transosseous suture fixation technique for osteoporotic patients with displaced 2-part greater tuberosity fractures of the proximal humerus. The technique reduces the upward and medially displaced greater tuberosity to its anatomic position and uses longitudinal, horizontal, or a mattress suture fixation as single or combined fixation (Natofix technique).Hip arthroscopy techniques have evolved to treat a wide range of extra-articular pathologies. Subspine impingement commonly occurs in femoroacetabular impingement, particularly in athletes with a high range of motion, patients with low degrees of femoral version, and those with large subspine deformities. A reliable technique that preserves the hip capsule would be helpful for hip arthroscopy surgeons. This note details our technique using pericapsular windows proximal to the interportal capsulotomy to access and decompress a subspine deformity in the setting of hip femoroacetabular impingement.Tears of the rotator cuff tendons can occur that do not allow anatomic footprint restoration yet may not be large enough to require a superior capsular reconstruction technique. Typically, these intermediate-sized tears are addressed with a medialized repair or partial repair technique. A partially repaired rotator cuff tendon, however, can lead to a high retear rate, as the repaired tendon is required to serve as both a dynamic tendon and a static ligamentous stabilizer. One potential static support, as a nearby autologous graft donor, is the proximal long head biceps tendon. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a surgical technique for an anterior cable reconstruction using the proximal biceps tendon for large rotator cuff defects.As hip arthroscopy has become increasingly used to treat femoroacetabular impingement, the importance of a complete femoroplasty to properly address cam impingement has been demonstrated. In doing so, different capsulotomy techniques have been described for gaining access to the hip joint as well as the peripheral compartment for cam resection. The periportal capsulotomy technique allows joint access while preserving the structural integrity of the iliofemoral ligament, obviating the need for capsular closure. We present a systematic approach and surgical technique for performing a complete arthroscopic femoroplasty while maintaining conservative hip capsule management through a periportal capsulotomy.Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with additional procedures could be necessary for patients with increased preoperative pivot shift. Double-bundle (DB) ACLR provides more footprint coverage and recreates the 2 functional anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) bundles, which are believed to give better joint function and stability than single-bundle (SB) ACLR. Internal brace augmentation with suture tape is proposed along with tendon graft in ACLR to protect the newly reconstructed ligament during rehabilitation. Additional reconstruction with anterolateral ligament (ALL) during ACLR has shown significant reduction in the level of persistent pivot shift. In Technical Note we present a modified surgical technique of combined anatomic DB ACLR and ALLR with hamstring autograft and internal brace, using button suspensory fixation device and aperture screws. The objective of this technique is to decrease residual anterior and rotational instability after ACLR and ALLR.Traumatic posterior dislocations of the shoulder can result in bony defects, labral tears, and cartilage injuries of the glenohumeral joint. Although traditional Hill-Sachs lesions from anterior dislocations are more commonly identified, reverse Hill-Sachs lesions caused by posterior dislocation often leads to recurrent engagement of the humeral head with the glenoid and significantly greater damage to the humeral chondral surface. In severe traumatic cases, concomitant damage of the capsulolabral soft tissues, such as circumferential labral lesions, can lead to chronic shoulder instability and residual glenoid bone loss. These lesions further add to the complexity of managing patients with posterior dislocations of the shoulder because of the challenges of achieving adequate anatomic reduction and tensioning of the capsulolabral junction, while also using a combination of arthroscopic and open-labral repair techniques. In the setting of reverse Hill-Sachs lesions treatment, it is important to address the bony and cartilage defect. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred technique for arthroscopic repair of circumferential lesions of the glenoid labrum causing multidirectional instability with concomitant reverse Hill-Sachs Lesion treatment with fresh talus osteochondral allograft.Small symptomatic rotator cuff tears are a common problem seen by orthopaedic surgeons. Arthroscopic repair has been shown to have favorable outcomes for these lesions. There is as yet no consensus on the ideal technique for the arthroscopic repair of small rotator cuff tears. We present a single lateral row technique for the repair of such lesions, which we believe to be reproducible and effective, that achieves good approximation of the tear while reducing the chance of suture cutouts.Medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC) is considered as the primary medial patellar restraint and has a static, as well as dynamic, component. MPFL reconstruction (MPFL-R) restores only the static component of MPFC, is associated with multiple technical concerns, and has a steep learning curve. Need for physeal sparing techniques and relatively high rates of complications including patella fracture are some other concerns with MPFL-R. We propose a simple procedure for advancement of MPFC onto patella, which is indicated in most of the recurrent lateral instabilities (with a positive lateral glide test result and an intact MPFL on magnetic resonance imaging). The procedure is also indicated in selective acute primary dislocations-those with associated chondral lesions and magnetic resonance imaging-documented isolated patellar side avulsion/injury. MPFC advancement is a more anatomical procedure that also restores dynamic medial checkrein of patella and can be performed even by a novice surgeon. MPFC advancement is devoid of the multiple technicalities of MPFL-R, does not require intraoperative imaging or any postoperative immobilization, and renders complications like donor graft-site morbidity and patella fractures irrelevant. It requires no modifications in patients with open physes and can be performed in isolation or with other procedures as per à la carte principle.Anterior capsule ligament deficiency occurs in complicated anterior shoulder dislocation and poses a challenge to surgeons because of the irreparability of the capsule labrum structure or the nonoptimal healing potential after repair. Single-sling augmentation with either conjoined tendon or the long head of the biceps brachii has been reported to enhance the anterior stability of the shoulder. EPZ015666 mouse However, single-sling augmentation may still not be enough in cases of complicated anterior shoulder dislocation. Thus we introduce a double-sling anterior shoulder augmentation technique in which both the conjoined tendon and the long head of the biceps brachii are transferred to the anterior inferior side of the glenoid. Our clinical experience indicates that this procedure is effective to address complicated anterior shoulder dislocation. We believe that the introduction of this technique will provide a special choice in the treatment of anterior shoulder dislocation.Injectable scaffold augmentation is a promising modality for single-stage cartilage repair. According to published studies, cartilage repair with scaffold augmentation has improved clinical outcomes, radiological fill, and histological repair compared with microfracture alone. Injectable scaffolds have the versatility to be used in large and irregularly shaped lesions. With correct preparation, they can be applied to lesions on the femoral condyle that may be vertical, or even inverted lesions such as those in the patella. They can be combined with bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) to provide mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), thereby avoiding the need for microfracture. This protects the subchondral plate, preventing biomechanical alteration and potentially resulting in improved long-term outcomes. In this article, we demonstrate the utility of injectable scaffolds and their combination with BMAC.Bucket-handle meniscal tears (BHMT) remain a challenge to treat due to their complex pathology and technical difficulty. Subtotal meniscectomy has shown to improve symptoms early but leads to accelerated osteoarthritis in the affected compartment and poor long-term outcomes. BHMT repair and meniscal preservation is the preferred option. This can be performed with inside-out, all-inside, or hybrid meniscus repair techniques. All-inside meniscus repair avoids the need for additional safety incisions, trained assistants for suture passing, and reduce concerns of soft-tissue and neurovascular complications. In this Technical Note, we detail our all-inside technique for BHMT technique and share tips for a successful repair.Many arthroscopy suture techniques have been described for small rotator cuff tears, but there is no consensus. The aim of this study is to describe a double-row knot technique, which we call a "trident point," for the superior and posterosuperior small cuff tear that is easily reproducible and has a fast learning curve. This knot takes into account the excess of tendon tissue on the foot print after a cuff suture, called a "dog-ear deformity." However clinical, ultrasound, and biomechanical evaluation with follow-up remains necessary to validate the sustainability of this arthroscopy technique.Irreparable posterior-superior rotator cuff tear is encountered quite often in clinical practice. Bridging the tendon defect with various materials is reasonable. However, optimal bridging structures and techniques are still being pursued. We introduce a rotator cuff bridging technique, rooting rotator cuff reconstruction. In this technique, autogenous tendon is used to make grafts. On the medial side, the graft tendons are suspended on the rotator cuff tendon. On the lateral side, the graft tendons are placed into tunnels through the tuberosities. The most critical steps of this technique are properly fabricating the humeral tunnels and suspending the graft tendons onto the rotator cuff tendon. We believe this technique will shed light on rotator cuff reconstruction.
