Abstract
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a crucial complication of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Continuous local antibiotic perfusion (CLAP) with a high-concentration antimicrobial pharmacy administration method has recently received attention owing to its effectiveness in the treatment of bone and soft tissue infections. We herein report a case of PJI following RSA that was successfully treated with CLAP without removal of the entire implant. A 73-year-old woman with comorbidities of diabetes mellitus and hypertension underwent RSA. The wound was found to be swollen eight weeks after RSA, and purulent content that was positive for Propionibacterium granulosum was identified. Blood samples indicated a mildly elevated inflammatory response. With a diagnosis of PJI spread from the intra-articular to subcutaneous regions without implant loosening, the patient underwent surgical treatment nine weeks after RSA. The contaminated tissues were thoroughly debrided, and the prosthetic joint was preserved by replacing the glenosphere and polyethylene liner. Intra-soft tissue antibiotic perfusion (iSAP) tubes and effluent drains were placed intra-articularly and subcutaneously, and gentamicin was infused continuously for 12 days. In addition, ceftriaxone and rifampicin were administered. The patient was subsequently treated with minocycline and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim or clindamycin for eight weeks. The inflammatory reaction became negative six weeks postoperatively, and the patient had no recurrence at 15 months postoperatively. Treatment of PJI is considered a long-lasting, challenging process. This case report supports the feasibility of using CLAP in the treatment of PJI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of the thumb test for assessing the cancellous bone quality at the resection plane of the proximal humerus on determining the application of a stemless shoulder prosthesis remains unclear. This study was conducted to survey the current utilization of the thumb test among surgeons and to investigate biomechanical features of the thumb test. METHOD A survey among shoulder surgeons who had experience with stemless prostheses was conducted to investigate the current utilization of preoperative assessments and intraoperative thumb test when applying stemless prosthesis. Biomechanical experiments for the thumb test using artificial bone models were performed to assess the compression force, contact pressure and area. According to the preliminary survey, three compression techniques were assessed: compression perpendicular to the surface with thumb pad (P-pad technique) or tip of the thumb (P-tip technique), or compression in the vertical direction simulating compression along the longitudinal axis of the humeral shaft with tip-pad of the thumb (H-axis technique). The contact area was separated into three subregions (proximal, middle and distal) to assess the distribution of contact pressure. RESULTS Among 38 surgeons, 66% utilized the thumb test intraoperatively. The P-pad technique was more frequently applied than the P-tip or H-axis techniques (80%, 4% and 16%, respectively). Although with wide variation among the examiners, biomechanical assessments revealed the P-pad technique showed larger contact area and less compression force than the P-tip technique. The P-pad technique provided no significant localized differences in the mean contact pressure on the compressed plane, whereas the P-tip and H-axis techniques showed significant differences among subregions. CONCLUSION This survey demonstrated relatively frequent application of the thumb test on applying the stemless shoulder prosthesis. Biomechanical assessment revealed the thumb test can hinder objective reproducibility among examiners; therefore, further investigations to identify feasible assessments of the bone quality is required.

Abstract
A medial condyle fracture of the humerus with preexisting fishtail deformity and lateral condyle nonunion is very rare, and there have been few reports describing favorable treatment options. We herein report the case of an 83-year-old woman who sustained a medial condyle fracture of her elbow with a comorbidity of long-lasting limited elbow motion with a history of elbow trauma in childhood. After conservative treatment with casting for four weeks, unstable medial condyle fracture in the presence of fishtail deformity and lateral condyle nonunion remained. Due to persistent pain, the patient underwent surgical treatment with semiconstrained total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) through the triceps-on approach. At the 12-month follow-up examination, the patient had no pain and achieved satisfactory functional outcomes. This case report demonstrated the efficacy of TEA for deteriorated stability due to bilateral condyle fracture/nonunion with fishtail deformity of the humerus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) and superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) are recognized as surgical options for an irreparable rotator cuff tear. However, the postoperative changes of the muscle activity patterns remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the quantified muscle activities on shoulder elevation in patients treated with RSA or SCR using fluorine-18-labelled fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography. METHODS Asymptomatic shoulders that underwent RSA or SCR and those without a rotator cuff tear were analyzed as the RSA, SCR, and control groups. All subjects underwent shoulder elevation exercise, followed by a fluorine-18-labelled fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography examination. Using previously established methods to quantify the uptake of each muscle on positron emission tomography images, the standard uptake values (SUVs) for 16 portions of the deltoid, rotator cuff, and periscapular muscles were obtained to compare the muscle activity patterns among 3 groups. RESULTS The deltoid muscle showed the most characteristic differences according to the surgeries. The mean SUVs of the anterior, middle, and posterior deltoid were 3.3, 3.7, and 1.5 for the RSA group; 2.7, 4.2, and 1.5 for the SCR group; and 1.3, 2.0, and 0.9 for the control group, respectively. In comparison to the control group, both the RSA and SCR groups showed significantly increased SUVs at all portions of the deltoid muscle. The RSA group showed similar SUVs for the anterior and middle deltoid, whereas the SCR and control groups showed greatest SUVs at the middle deltoid. In addition, the serratus anterior, levator scapulae, and upper portion of the trapezius in the RSA group showed greater SUVs than in the control group. CONCLUSION The deltoid muscle showed increased activity in the RSA and SCR groups. The middle deltoid was mainly used in the SCR group, whereas the anterior and middle deltoid, as well as the upward rotator muscles of the scapula, were mainly used in the RSA group.

Abstract
Simultaneous bilateral proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) caused by a single trauma are considered rare. We herein report two patients with bilateral PHFs treated based on our treatment strategy: reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) to obtain rigid stability for one shoulder and open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) to regain the mobility of external and internal rotation for the other. By using Neer’s four-segment fracture classification, patients underwent RSA for one shoulder with the more advanced fracture type and ORIF for the other. In Case 1, a 74-year-old female presented with bilaterally comminuted PHFs and underwent surgical treatment with RSA and ORIF. In Case 2, a 78-year-old female with the comorbidity of rheumatoid arthritis and a history of total elbow arthroplasty for both elbows had bilateral PHFs and underwent surgical treatment with RSA and ORIF. Postoperatively, both patients were instructed to perform exercises including passive range of motion (ROM) for a week, active ROM exercises for two weeks, and muscle strengthening for six weeks after the surgery. At the follow-up, both patients were satisfied with the pain relief and functional recovery. Especially, increased ROM for external and internal rotation was obtained in shoulders with ORIF. These case reports describe a viable treatment option comprising simultaneous RSA and ORIF, and this surgical approach may restore shoulder functions in cases of bilateral PHFs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rotator cuff tears are common in the older population. Atrophy and fat infiltration develop un-evenly in torn supraspinatus (SSP) muscles leading to pre- and post-surgical complications. The purpose of the current study was twofold: first, to implement a volumetric and quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approach to quantify the degree of muscle atrophy and fat infiltration within the SSP muscle and its four sub-regions (AS, PS, AD, and PD); second to compare 3-D MRI outcomes to the standard 2-D assessment and investigate their relationship with tear size. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen cadaveric shoulders were obtained and MRI performed. Quantitative 3-D outcomes included SSP muscle volume, fossa volume, fat-free muscle volume, and fat fraction for the whole SSP muscle and its four sub-regions. 2-D and qualitative measurements included tear size, 2-D fat infiltration using the Goutallier classification, tangent sign, and occupation ratio. RESULTS Linear regression outcomes with tear size were not significant for both cross-sectional area (r = - 0.494, p = 0.061) and occupation ratio (r = - 0.011, p = 0.969). Tear size negatively correlated with fat-free muscle volume for both AS and PS sub-regions (AS: r = - 0.78, p < 0.001; PS: r = - 0.68, p = 0.005, respectively) while showing no significant correlation with fat fraction outcomes. AD and PD sub-regions positively correlated with tear size and fat fraction outcomes (AD: r = 0.70, p = 0.017; PD: r = 0.52, p = 0.045, respectively), while no significant correlation was observed between tear size and fat-free muscle volumes. CONCLUSION Quantitative 3-D volumetric assessment of muscle degeneration resulted in better outcomes compared to the standard 2-D evaluation. The superficial supraspinatus muscle sub-regions primarily presented muscle atrophy, while the deep sub-regions were mainly affected by fat infiltration. 3-D assessments could be used pre-surgically to determine the best course of treatment and to estimate the muscles' regenerative capacity and function.

Abstract
14 normal subjects were given two tactile-recognition tasks. Subjects were asked to match the factually presented nonsense figures to the visual-recognition display on a Non-rotation task. On the Mental-rotation task subjects matched the tactile figures which were presented in various directions by means of mental rotation to the visual display. A greater superiority of the left hand on the Mental-rotation task was noted while on the Non-rotation task no differences between hands were shown. The right hemisphere may contribute more strongly to higher thought processes especially those which do not need verbal mediation.

Abstract
Background: Ultrasonographically measuring the median nerve cross-sectional area (MN-CSA) is a useful and complementary method for diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). This study investigated the usefulness of the median nerve transverse diameter (MN-TD) as a simpler and easier technique than MN-CSA for diagnosing CTS severity. Methods: We examined 145 hands from 101 patients with CTS and 114 age- and gender-matched control hands. Based on the electrodiagnostic findings, the severity of CTS was divided into minimal, mild, moderate, severe and extreme. An ultrasonographic assessment of MN-TD and MN-CSA was performed to measure the maximal values around the carpal tunnel inlet level. The values were assessed for comparisons between the CTS and control groups and for the evaluation of differences by CTS severity. Results: The ultrasonographic measurements of MN-TD and MN-CSA were significantly increased in the CTS group compared to the normal group. Furthermore, both measurements significantly increased with increasing CTS severity. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis showed that participants with MN-TD > 7.2 mm had CTS with 88% specificity and 74% sensitivity, and those with MN-CSA > 12.0 mm2 had CTS with 86% specificity and 84% sensitivity. Conclusions: Ultrasonographic measurement for MN-TD may be useful for diagnosing CTS patients and predicting the severity.

Abstract
The purposes of this study were to demonstrate the clinical characteristics of patients with persistent second carpometacarpal (CMC) joint pain without bony abnormalities known as the carpal boss, and to assess the clinical efficacy of surgical stabilization of the second CMC joint. Eleven patients had persistent wrist pain with characteristic symptoms, including tenderness over the second CMC joint, increased symptoms when the involved hand was placed on the ground or gripped strongly with the involved hand, a positive metacarpal stress test and temporary pain relief with the intra-articular injection of the lidocaine. The patients underwent arthrodesis of the second CMC joint. All cases showed radiologically confirmed fusion of the second CMC joint. At the final followup examination, 10 of 11 patients resulted in satisfactory clinical outcomes, excepting one patient with remnant pain and restricted range of wrist motions. This report highlights the importance of conducting a careful assessment of patients who present with persistent second CMC joint pain without the bony abnormalities, such as carpal bossing. Surgery to stabilize the second CMC joint may be an option to improve their symptoms when conservative treatment fails.

Abstract
Objectives The purposes of this study were to assess the clinical features of ulnar tunnel syndrome (UTS) and to investigate the diagnostic value of nerve conduction measurements for UTS. Methods Eighteen patients with UTS were reviewed retrospectively. Fifteen patients had intrinsic muscle atrophy and motor weakness, and 15 had numbness with hypesthesia. The compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs) from the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle and the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) muscle and the sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) from the little finger were recorded and analyzed. All patients underwent ulnar tunnel release surgery and neurolysis. Static two-point discrimination test results and pinch strengths were assessed before and after surgery. Results Before surgery, FDI-CMAP was recorded in 17 patients, and ADM-CMAP in 16, and all showed delayed latency and/or low amplitude. SNAP was recorded in eight patients and two showed delayed latency. The causes of ulnar nerve lesions were ganglion in five patients, traumatic adhesion in four, ulnar artery aberrancy in four, pisohamate arch in three, anomalous muscle in one, and ulnar vein varix in one. The sites of the lesions were in zone 1 of the ulnar tunnel anatomy in 12 patients, in zone 2 in 2, and in zones 1 and 2 in 4. After surgery, all patients obtained recovery of motor function and sensation; however, postoperative FDI-CMAP and ADM-CMAP did not improve to the normal range. Conclusions The causes of UTS were ganglion, traumatic adhesion, ulnar artery aberrancy, and pisohamate arch. Both FDI-CMAP and ADM-CMAP were valuable for electrophysiological diagnosis of UTS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It remains unclear how the head and stem diameters for the radial head prosthesis could affect mechanical properties of the lateral collateral ligament measured by strain changes during elbow and forearm motions. METHODS Eight cadaveric specimens were secured to the device, which allows elbow flexion-extension and forearm pro-supination. Using six different implant combinations comprising 2 sizes for the head (long- and short-axis of the native head) and 3 sizes for the stem (press-fit, -1 mm, and -2 mm downsizing), prostheses were attached via the posterior approach. A differential variable reluctance transducer placed on the central portion of the radial collateral ligament were used for strain measurement with elbow flexion at 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90°. At each position, the strain patterns with the forearm in the neutral and 45° pro-supination positions were also assessed. FINDINGS Specimens implanted with long-axis head component showed greater increases in the ligament strain during elbow flexion than intact specimens or those implanted with short-axis head. Compared to press-fit stem, implants with downsizing to -1 mm approximated strain patterns during pro-supination with elbow extension to intact condition. INTERPRETATION Morphologic variation of the head and stem components in radial head prostheses led to altered strain patterns in the lateral collateral ligament during elbow and forearm motions. A short-axis head component can be used to prevent excessive strain changes after the prosthesis application. Downsizing of the stem component might be an option for approximating the biomechanics at the radiocapitellar joint during forearm rotation to the intact elbow.

Abstract
Introduction Fragment-type glenoid bone loss is known to remodel after arthroscopic Bankart repair. To our knowledge, no studies have been reported about the morphologic changes of the erosion-type bone loss. Aim To determine the morphologic changes of erosion-type glenoid bone loss after arthroscopic Bankart repair. Methods Twenty-eight patients (mean age: 31 years) with traumatic anterior glenohumeral instability with an erosion-type glenoid bone loss <25% underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair. The minimum follow-up was 2 years. Pre- and postoperative bilateral computed tomography scans were performed in all patients. The width and surface area of the glenoid were measured by a software program and compared pre- and postoperatively. Results The recurrence rate was 7.1% (2 of 28 shoulders). The size of the bone loss was 7.2% ± 5.3% (mean ± standard deviation). The preoperative glenoid width and area were 24.9 ± 2.2 mm and 7.0 ± 0.8 cm2, respectively, and the postoperative ones (2 years after surgery) were 24.7 ± 2.2 mm and 6.8 ± 0.8 cm2, respectively. There were no significant differences between the pre- and postoperative glenoid width and area. Discussion and conclusion Unlike the fragment-type bone loss, the erosion-type bone loss <25% did not show any morphologic changes of the glenoid at least 2 years after arthroscopic Bankart repair.

Abstract
Background The best method for nonsurgical treatment after primary dislocation of the shoulder is not clear. The efficacy of immobilization with the arm in external rotation (ER) compared with internal rotation (IR) remains controversial. Purpose To determine the efficacy of ER immobilization versus IR immobilization on recurrence rate after primary dislocation of the shoulder from the evidence of randomized controlled trials. Study Design Systematic review; Level of evidence, 2. Methods Electronic databases (MEDLINE [Ovid SP], PubMed, Web of Science, EBM reviews, and CINAHL) and available proceedings according to the abstracts of major international meetings related to or including shoulder injuries and trauma were used to search for randomized controlled trials. Two independent investigators determined eligibility and carried out data extraction from the selected studies. Results A total of 9 studies (817 patients) were selected for this meta-analysis. They included 668 male and 149 female patients, with a mean age ranging from 20.3 to 37.5 years. In the 9 pooled studies, the recurrence rate of shoulder dislocation was 21.5% (84/390) in the ER group versus 34.9% (130/373) in the IR group. ER immobilization significantly reduced the recurrence rate compared with IR immobilization (risk ratio, 0.56; P = .007). In the subgroup analysis of those immobilized full-time, ER immobilization was significantly more effective than IR immobilization in reducing the recurrence rate (risk ratio, 0.57; P = .01). In the subgroup analysis of age, ER immobilization was significantly more effective than IR immobilization in those aged 20 to 40 years but not in those younger than 20 years. Conclusion This meta-analysis demonstrates that ER immobilization reduces the recurrence rate after primary shoulder dislocation compared with IR immobilization in patients older than 20 years. When treating a patient with primary shoulder dislocation, the clinician should provide this information to the patient before a treatment method is selected.

Abstract
PURPOSE In the torn rotator cuff muscles, decreased expression of wnt10b prior to elevation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα) has previously been reported. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the expression profiles of these adipogenesis-related genes after rotator cuff detachment and reattachment in a rabbit model. METHODS We investigated gene expression profiles of PPARγ, C/EBPα, and wnt10b in different parts of rabbit supraspinatus (SSP) muscle after tendon detachment (n = 6 for each time point). In addition, we assessed expression of the same genes after SSP reattachment with different intervals from initial detachment (n = 6). Fatty degeneration of the SSP muscle was examined by Oil red-O staining. Gene expression profiles were examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS After SSP detachment, Oil red-O-positive oil deposits increased after 3 weeks. In the SSP reattachment model, numerous Oil red-O-positive cells were present at 5-week reattachment, following 2- and 3-week detachment. PPARγ and C/EBPα messenger ribonucleic acid expression exhibited a significant increase at 2 and 3 weeks after SSP detachment and remained increased at 5-week reattachment after 2- and 3-week detachment. A decreased expression of wnt10b was observed from 1 week after SSP detachment. Expression of wnt10b was recovered not in the central area of the SSP muscle but in the periphery after reattachment. Adipogenic change was not observed when SSP tendon was reattached after 1-week detachment. CONCLUSIONS These results may suggest that once the adipogenic transcription factors, PPARγ and C/EBPα, were elevated, repair surgery after rotator cuff tear could not prevent the emergence of fat in the SSP muscle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several measurement techniques have been reported to quantify glenoid bone defect in patients with anterior shoulder instability. Among them, the method that uses a best-fit circle and another that uses the contralateral glenoid as a control are most commonly used. However, to our knowledge, no study has been reported that compared the reliability of these methods. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to determine which of these methods has higher reproducibility. METHOD In this study, 3-dimensional computed tomography data from 94 patients (mean age 29 years) with unilateral anterior shoulder instability were used. Three examiners measured the glenoid bone defect of each patient 3 times using 2 techniques: the best-fit circle method and the contralateral comparison method. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities were measured using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS The intraobserver reliability was found to be 0.91 for the best-fit circle method and 0.98 for the contralateral comparison method. The interobserver reliability was 0.77 for the best-fit circle method and 0.88 for the contralateral method. The percentage of glenoid defect was 11.5% when using the best-fit circle and 10.7% with the contralateral method. CONCLUSION The contralateral comparison method was more reliable than the best-fit circle method for quantifying the amount of glenoid bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose was to determine the risk and outcomes of primary shoulder arthroplasties in patients with immunosuppression who had undergone solid organ transplantation. METHODS Using a single institution's total joint registry, we reviewed 30 primary shoulder arthroplasties in 25 post-transplantation patients, including 12 total shoulder arthroplasties, 10 hemiarthroplasties, and 8 reverse shoulder arthroplasties, between 1985 and 2012. Therapy and patient variables were recorded, including immunosuppressive therapy protocols, the date of preceding solid organ transplantation, and specific medications taken in the perioperative period. We matched a cohort of control patients for age, sex, type of implant, and year of surgery at a ratio of 4:1. Two groups were compared regarding mortality risk, complications, and clinical outcomes (pain score, range of motion, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score). RESULTS No periprosthetic infections occurred in the post-transplantation group at a mean follow-up of 39 months. However, the post-transplantation group showed an increased risk of periprosthetic fractures compared with the control group (hazard ratio, 8.18; 95% confidence interval, 1.22-70.98; P = .03). Despite the increase in fractures, the overall number of complications did not differ between the groups. Furthermore, postoperative shoulder function and outcome scores were not significantly different between patients who had a prior transplant and those who did not. CONCLUSION Primary shoulder arthroplasty in patients with immunosuppression who underwent solid organ transplantation is a successful procedure to treat glenohumeral arthritis. In contrast, there may be an increased risk of periprosthetic fractures in patients with a history of a solid organ transplant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been demonstrated biomechanically that 25% is a critical size defect of the glenoid. However, a recent clinical study reported that a bone loss between 13.5% and 20% (subcritical bone loss) led to impairment of quality of life but not a recurrence of instability. PURPOSE To clarify whether a subcritical bone loss exists in assessing a Hill-Sachs lesion via a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Fifty patients (mean age, 27 years) with <25% glenoid defect who were treated with arthroscopic Bankart repair for recurrent anterior dislocation were assessed at a mean follow-up of 28 months. All had an on-track Hill-Sachs lesion. The Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) and Rowe scores were used for the clinical evaluation. The Hill-Sachs interval was measured on 3-dimensional computed tomography images and divided by the glenoid track width, defined as the Hill-Sachs occupancy (in percentages). The glenoid track was divided into 4 zones based on the percentage of the Hill-Sachs occupancy: zone 1, <25%; zone 2, 25% to <50%; zone 3, 50% to <75%; and zone 4, ≥75%. RESULTS The recurrence rate was 6% (3 of 50 shoulders). The Rowe score significantly improved from 45.2 ± 4.7 (mean ± SD) preoperatively to 92.3 ± 6.5 at the final follow-up (P < .05). The WOSI score also significantly increased from 46.6% ± 19.3% preoperatively to 72.3% ± 21.0% at the final follow-up (P < .001). The WOSI score of patients in zone 4 (peripheral-track lesion) (n = 10) was significantly lower than those in the other zones (central-track lesion) (P = .0379). Of the 10 patients with the peripheral-track lesion, 5 had a <40% WOSI score, similar to the preoperative WOSI score (46.6%). CONCLUSION Patients with on-track lesions can be divided into 2 subgroups: those with the Hill-Sachs occupancy ≥75% (peripheral-track lesion) showed significantly worse WOSI score without recurrent instability events than those with the Hill-Sacks occupancy <75% (central-track lesion).

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been biomechanically demonstrated that 20% to 25% is a critical glenoid bone loss. Recently, there are several reports describing that a bone loss less than 20% to 25% needed to be treated because patients may have decreased quality of life without recurrent instability events. The purpose of this study was to clarify the presence of subcritical bone loss that would affect postoperative instability or quality of life. METHODS Subjects were 43 patients aged≤40years with less than 25% glenoid bone loss who had undergone arthroscopic Bankart repair. These patients were assessed at a mean follow-up of 32months. The Western Ontario Shoulder Instability (WOSI) and Rowe scores were used for the clinical evaluation. Patients were divided in 3 groups based on the percentage of bone loss: group 1: <8%; group 2: 8% to 17%; and group 3: >17%. RESULTS The recurrence rate was 7% (3/43 shoulders). A weak negative correlation was seen between bone loss and sports/recreation/work domain of the WOSI score (r=-0.304, p=0.0191). The WOSI for group 3 was significantly lower than that for group 1 and 2 (p=0.0009). The male WOSI scores were significantly lower than the female ones (p=0.0471). The WOSI scores of the contact athletes were significantly lower than those of non-contact athletes (p=0.0275). All the patients in Group 3 were males and participated in contact sports. CONCLUSION Glenoid bone loss between 17% and 25% is considered to be a "subcritical bone loss" in our series, especially in male patients who are involved in sports or high-level activities. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A curved-drill guide system was recently introduced to achieve a better trajectory for a low anteroinferior anchor during arthroscopic Bankart repair. However, the clinical performance of such a device remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the trajectory and position of the low anteroinferior suture anchor with use of the curved-guide system in clinical cases. METHODS We enrolled 41 cases of arthroscopic Bankart repair in this study. Of these cases, 9 were repaired using the curved drill guide whereas 32 were repaired using a conventional straight guide. Postoperative computed tomography scans were obtained, and 3-dimensional models of the scapula were reconstructed. Notable perforations of the opposite cortex by the most inferior anchors were recorded. The clock-face angle, insertion angle, and insertion distance were measured. RESULTS The anchor perforation rate in the curved-guide group (11%) was significantly lower than that in the straight-guide group (56%) (P = .02). The insertion distance in the curved-guide group was significantly shorter than that in the straight-guide group (4.0 ± 1.6 mm vs. 7.0 ± 2.4 mm, P < .01). The clock-face angle and insertion angle were significantly greater in the perforated straight-guide group than in the nonperforated groups. The percentage of anchors in the absolute safe zone (clock-face angle > 135° and < 165° and insertion angle < 100°), where no anchors perforated, was greater in the curved-guide group than the straight-guide group. CONCLUSION Compared with the conventional straight guide, the curved-guide system provides better placement of the most inferior suture anchor during arthroscopic Bankart repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been believed that a Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) is created with the arm in abduction and external rotation at the time of dislocation. However, no studies have clarified the arm position in which an HSL is created. PURPOSE To determine the arm position in which an HSL is created. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. METHODS The computed tomography images of 100 shoulders of 100 patients (72 males and 28 females; mean age, 30 years old) with recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder were investigated using an image analyzing software. Three-dimensional surface bone models of the scapula and humerus were created separately. The humerus was moved so that the HSL perfectly fit the anterior rim of the glenoid. This arm position was recorded 3-dimensionally. RESULTS Considering the scapulohumeral rhythm, the average arm position in which the HSL and the anterior glenoid rim best fit was 74° of abduction, 27° of external rotation, and 3° of horizontal flexion relative to the trunk. CONCLUSION The arm position when an HSL and the anterior glenoid rim best fit is 74° of abduction, 27° of external rotation, and 3° of horizontal flexion, which seems to be the arm position when the HSL has been created. This result suggests 2 possibilities: dislocation occurred in this midrange position or HSL was not created at the time of dislocation but later in the mid-range of motion. However, as we have no information on the arm position at the time of dislocation, we cannot conclude which of these possibilities is true in our study. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study gives us a better understanding of the timing of HSL occurrence. Shoulder dislocation may occur at the end range of motion or in the mid-range of motion, but an HSL is created in the mid-range of motion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment with injection of collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) has been recognized as an effective option for the Dupuytren's contracture (DC) in Europe and North America. However, there are no studies describing mid-term efficacy of CCH treatment in East-Asian population. The purpose of this study was to assess 2-year outcomes following CCH treatment in Japanese patients. METHODS Twenty hands (28 joints) from 18 DC patients underwent CCH injection with manipulation according to the product specifications with 2-year follow-up. Patients were assessed for extension deficit on treated metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and/or proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints before treatment, at 4 weeks and 2 years after the treatment. RESULTS At 4 weeks after CCH treatment, contracture of treated joints significantly improved from the mean extension deficit of 45° before treatment to 3° for MCP joints, and from 41° to 14° for PIP joints (P < 0.001, <0.001, respectively). Improved contracture was maintained with 4° and 23° at 2 years after CCH treatment (P < 0.001, <0.05, respectively). Successful correction defined as ≤ 5° extension deficit was obtained in 14/16 MCP and 5/12 PIP joints at 4 weeks; of these, 11 MCP and 1 PIP joints maintained the corrected range of motion at 2-year follow-up. CONCLUSION CCH treatment could be a useful option to improve contracture in Japanese patients. During 2-year follow-up, this treatment could provide comparable effect durability to previous studies from Western countries. Moreover, our results support the evidence that better correction of the contracture can be obtained in the MCP joints than PIP joints after CCH treatment.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical outcomes of patients with anterior shoulder instability who underwent surgical treatment according to the on-track/off-track concept. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent surgical treatment according to the glenoid track concept with a minimum of 2 years’ follow-up. By use of preoperative 3-dimensional computed tomography images, surgical options were selected: arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) for patients with on-track lesions and the Latarjet procedure or ABR with the remplissage procedure for patients with off-track lesions. The recurrence rate was assessed at 2-year follow-up after surgery. Results Among 92 patients enrolled in this study, 81 had on-track lesions and underwent ABR. Of the 11 patients with off-track lesions, 1 underwent ABR with the remplissage procedure and 10 underwent the Latarjet procedure. Recurrences occurred in 4 patients treated by ABR (5%), whereas no recurrences were observed in off-track cases treated by the remplissage or Latarjet procedure. Conclusion Clinical application of the on-track/off-track concept for determining surgical options in preoperative planning seems to be useful to prevent recurrent instability after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The glenoid track concept has been widely used to assess the risk of instability caused by a bipolar lesion. The mean glenoid track width is reported to be 83% of the glenoid width. However, this width seems to be affected by the range of motion of the shoulder. By clarifying the relationship between the range of shoulder motion and the glenoid track width, a more precise determination of the glenoid track width for each individual could be possible. PURPOSE To determine the relationship between the glenoid track width and the range of motion of healthy volunteers. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. METHODS Magnetic resonance imaging was taken in 41 shoulders of 21 healthy volunteers (mean age, 32 years) with the arm in maximum horizontal extension, with the arm kept in 90° of abduction and 90° of external rotation. Three-dimensional surface bone models of the glenoid and the humerus were created with image analysis software. The distance from the anterior rim of the glenoid to the medial margin of the footprint of the rotator cuff tendon was defined as the glenoid track width. Active and passive ranges of shoulder motion were measured in the supine and sitting positions. The correlations between the glenoid track width and the ranges of shoulder motion were investigated with Pearson correlation coefficients. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities based on the intraclass correlation coefficient were also analyzed to assess the reliability of the glenoid track measurement. RESULTS The intra- and interobserver reliabilities for the glenoid track measurement were excellent (0.988 and 0.988, respectively). Among all the measurements, the glenoid track width and the active range of motion in horizontal extension in the sitting position showed the greatest correlation coefficient ( r = -0.623, P < .0001). A correlation between the glenoid track width and this angle was expressed as Y = -0.49 X + 90, where X is the horizontal extension angle (degrees) and Y is the glenoid track width (percentage of glenoid width). CONCLUSION The present data demonstrate that the greater the horizontal extension angle in abduction and external rotation, the smaller the glenoid track width. An individualized glenoid track width can be obtained by measuring the active horizontal extension angle with the arm in abduction and external rotation in the sitting position. CLINICAL RELEVANCE An individualized glenoid track width enables selection of a more precise surgical option by the on-track/off-track concept.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Focus has recently been on the critical shoulder angle (CSA) as a factor related to rotator cuff tear and osteoarthritis (OA) in the European population. However, whether this relationship is observed in the Asian population is unclear. METHODS The correlation between the CSAs measured on anteroposterior radiographs and the presence or absence of rotator cuff tears or OA changes was assessed in 295 patients. Rotator cuff tears were diagnosed with magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasonography. OA findings were classified using the Samilson-Prieto classification. The CSAs among the patients with rotator cuff tears, OA changes, and those without pathologies were compared. Multivariable analyses were used to clarify the potential risks for these pathologies. RESULTS The mean CSA with rotator cuff tear (33.9° ± 4.1°) was significantly greater than that without a rotator cuff tear (32.3° ± 4.5°; P = .002). Multivariable analysis also showed that a greater CSA had a significantly increased risk of rotator cuff tears, with the odds ratio of 1.08 per degree. OA findings showed no significant correlation to the CSAs. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates that the CSA is greater in those with a rotator cuff tear than in those without a tear or OA changes, which may be an independent risk factor for the incidence of rotator cuff tears in the Japanese population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A torn rotator cuff tendon will retract over time causing changes in muscle properties and decreasing its extensibility, or deformation. During surgery, large tensile loads are applied to bring the torn tendon to the footprint. Poor muscle extensibility and large tensile stresses at the repair might lead to gap formation or re-tear of the repair. A quantitative evaluation of muscle properties could be used to predict the extensibility of the supraspinatus (SSP) muscle. METHOD Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-measured volumetric fat fraction and shear wave elastography (SWE)-measured elastic modulus of the SSP muscle were obtained on seventeen cadaveric shoulders. Experimental extensibility and stiffness were then measured by axially pulling the tendon up-to 60 N. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the correlation and contribution of fat fraction and elastic modulus to experimental outcomes. FINDINGS SWE moduli negatively correlated with SSP muscle extensibility (r = 0.54-0.58, P ≤ 0.0259); fat fraction resulted in a positive correlation (r = 0.69, P = 0.0021). SWE measurements, solely, explained up to 34% and 33% of the variability in measured extensibility and stiffness, respectively. Fat Fraction, solely, explained 48% of the variability in extensibility and 36% of the variability in stiffness. These methods combined predicted up to 62% of the musculotendinous extensibility. INTERPRETATION This study showed a comprehensive quantitative assessment of SSP muscle properties using SWE to estimate stiffness and MRI to measure fatty infiltration. The extensibility of the detached muscle/tendon unit was highly correlated to material properties of the muscle when these methods were used in combination.

Abstract
Surgical repair is a common treatment for rotator cuff tear; however, the retear rate is high. A high degree of suture repair strength is important to ensure rotator cuff integrity for healing. The purpose of this study was to compare the mechanical performance of rotator cuffs repaired with a mesh suture versus traditional polydioxanone suture II and FiberWire sutures in a canine in vitro model. Seventy-two canine shoulders were harvested. An infraspinatus tendon tear was created in each shoulder. Two suture techniques-simple interrupted sutures and two-row suture bridge-were used to reconnect the infraspinatus tendon to the greater tuberosity, using three different suture types: Mesh suture, polydioxanone suture II, or FiberWire. Shoulders were loaded to failure under displacement control at a rate of 20 mm/min. Failure load was compared between suture types and techniques. Ultimate failure load was significantly higher in the specimens repaired with mesh suture than with polydioxanone suture II or FiberWire, regardless of suture technique. There was no significant difference in stiffness among the six groups, with the exception that FiberWire repairs were stiffer than polydioxanone suture II repairs with the simple interrupted technique. All specimens failed by suture pull-out from the tendon. Based on our biomechanical findings, rotator cuff repair with the mesh suture might provide superior initial strength against failure compared with the traditional polydioxanone suture II or FiberWire sutures. Use of the mesh suture may provide increased initial fixation strength and decrease gap formation, which could result in improved healing and lower re-tear rates following rotator cuff repair. © 2017 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe glenoid bone loss remains a challenge in patients requiring shoulder arthroplasty and may necessitate glenoid bone grafting. The purpose of this study was to determine results, complications, and rates of failure of glenoid bone grafting in primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS Forty-one shoulders that underwent primary reverse arthroplasty between 2006 and 2013 with a minimum follow-up of 2 years (mean, 2.8 years; range, 2-6 years) were reviewed. Thirty-four (83%) received corticocancellous grafts and 7 (17%) structural grafts. RESULTS Active range of motion and pain levels were significantly improved (P < .001), with mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score of 77, Simple Shoulder Test score of 9, and patient satisfaction of 93% at the most recent follow-up. Preoperative severe glenoid erosion and increasing body mass index were significantly associated with worse American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores (P = .04). On radiographic evaluation, 7 patients (18%) had grade 1 or grade 2 glenoid lucency. Glenoid bone graft incorporation was observed in 31 patients (78%). Twelve patients (30%) suffered from grade 1 or grade 2 scapular notching. All of the patients with structural grafts showed graft incorporation and no signs of glenoid lucency. CONCLUSION Although glenoid lucency, glenoid graft resorption, and scapular notching were present at short-term to midterm follow-up, none of the patients needed revision surgery. Primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty with glenoid reconstruction using bone graft relieved pain and restored shoulder function and stability.

Abstract
Surgical repair for large rotator cuff tear remains challenging due to tear size, altered muscle mechanical properties, and poor musculotendinous extensibility. Insufficient extensibility might lead to an incomplete reconstruction; moreover, excessive stresses after repair may result in repair failure without healing. Therefore, estimates of extensibility of cuff muscles can help in pre-surgical planning to prevent unexpected scenarios during surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine if quantified mechanical properties of the supraspinatus muscle using shear wave elastography (SWE) could be used to predict the extensibility of the musculotendinous unit on cadaveric specimens. Forty-five fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders (25 intact and 20 with rotator cuff tear) were used for the study. Passive stiffness of 4 anatomical regions in the supraspinatus muscle was first measured using SWE. After detaching the distal edge of supraspinatus muscle from other cuff muscles, the detached muscle was axially pulled with the scapula fixed. The correlation between the SWE modulus and the extensibility of the muscle under 30 and 60N loads was assessed. There was a significant negative correlation between SWE measurements and the experimental extensibility. SWE modulus for the anterior-deep region in the supraspinatus muscle showed the strongest correlation with extensibility under 30N (r=0.70, P<0.001) and 60N (r=0.68, P<0.001). Quantitative SWE assessment for the supraspinatus muscle was highly correlated with extensibility of musculotendinous unit on cadaveric shoulders. This technique may be used to predict the extensibility for rotator cuff tears for pre-surgical planning.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rotator cuff (RC) tears result in muscle atrophy and fat infiltration within the RC muscles. An estimation of muscle quality and deformation, or extensibility, is useful in selecting the most appropriate surgical procedure. We determined if noninvasive quantitative assessment of intramuscular fat using MRI could be used to predict extensibility of the supraspinatus muscle. METHODS Seventeen cadaveric shoulders were imaged to assess intramuscular fat infiltration. Extensibility and histological evaluations were then performed. RESULTS Quantitative fat infiltration positively correlated with histological findings and presented a positive correlation with muscle extensibility (r = 0.69; P = 0.002). Extensibility was not significantly different between shoulders graded with a higher fat content versus those with low fat when implementing qualitative methods. DISCUSSION A noninvasive prediction of whole-muscle extensibility may directly guide pre-operative planning to determine if the torn edge could efficiently cover the original footprint while aiding in postoperative evaluation of RC repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the risk of periprosthetic infection after primary shoulder arthroplasty (SA) in patients undergoing previous nonarthroplasty shoulder surgery compared with those without previous surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients undergoing primary SA at our institution between 1970 and 2012 were included in this study. The cohort consisted of 4577 patients treated with 2890 total SAs, 1233 hemiarthroplasties, and 454 reverse SAs; 813 (18%) patients had undergone prior nonarthroplasty shoulder surgery on the operative side. Patients with and without previous surgery were compared for postoperative periprosthetic infection. Univariate and multivariable analyses were used. RESULTS Deep postoperative infection of the shoulder was diagnosed in 68 patients (1.49%). Of the 813 patients who had undergone previous surgery, 20 (2.46%) developed a deep postoperative infection. However, of the 3764 patients who did not have previous shoulder surgery, 48 patients (1.28%) sustained deep shoulder infection. This difference was significant in both the univariate (P = .0094) and multivariate analyses (P = .0390). In addition, older age and female gender were significantly associated with a lower risk of deep postoperative infection (P = .0150 and P = .0074, respectively). A higher number of previous surgeries was also significantly associated with an increased risk of deep postoperative infection (P = .0272). CONCLUSIONS The risk of infection after primary SA is significantly higher in patients with a history of prior non-arthroplasty-related surgery. This finding should be discussed with the patients before their surgery, and potential preoperative and intraoperative workup should be undertaken to identify at-risk patients.

Abstract
There have been no studies investigating three-dimensional (3D) alteration of the coracohumeral distance (CHD) associated with shoulder motion. The aim of this study was to investigate the change of 3D-CHD with the arm in flexion/internal rotation and horizontal adduction. Six intact shoulders of four healthy volunteers were obtained for this study. MRI was taken in four arm positions: with the arm in internal rotation at 0°, 45°, and 90° of flexion, and 90° of flexion with maximum horizontal adduction. Using a motion analysis system, 3D models of the coracoid process and proximal humerus were created from MRI data. The CHD among the four positions were compared, and the closest part of coracoid process to the proximal humerus was also assessed. 3D-CHD significantly decreased with the arm in 90° of flexion and in 90° of flexion with horizontal adduction comparing with that in 0° flexion (P<0.05). In all subjects, lateral part of the coracoid process was the closest to the proximal humerus in these positions. In vivo quasi-static motion analysis revealed that the 3D-CHD was narrower in the arm position of flexion with horizontal abduction than that in 0° flexion. The lateral part on the coracoid process should be considered to be closest to the proximal humerus during the motion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of smoking on the incidence of complications after primary anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). METHODS All patients who underwent primary TSA or RSA at our institution between 2002 and 2011 and had a minimum 2-year follow-up were included. Smoking status was assessed at the time of surgery. Current smokers, former smokers, and nonsmokers were compared for periprosthetic infection, fractures (intraoperative and postoperative), and loosening after surgery. RESULTS The cohort included 1834 shoulders in 1614 patients (814 in smokers and 1020 in nonsmokers). Complications occurred in 73 patients (75 shoulders; 44 in smokers and 31 in nonsmokers). There were 20 periprosthetic infections (16 in smokers and 4 in nonsmokers), 27 periprosthetic fractures (14 in smokers and 13 in nonsmokers), and 28 loosenings (14 in smokers and 14 in nonsmokers). Smokers had lower periprosthetic infection-free survival rates (95.3%-99.4% at 10 years; P = .001) and overall complication-free survival rates (78.4%-90.2%; P = .012) than nonsmokers. Multivariable analyses showed that both current and former smokers had significantly higher risk of periprosthetic infection in comparison with nonsmokers (hazard ratio [HR], 7.27 and 4.56, respectively). In addition, current smokers showed a higher risk of postoperative fractures than both former smokers (HR, 3.63) and nonsmokers (HR, 6.99). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that smoking is a significant risk factor of complications after TSA and RSA. These findings emphasize the need for preoperative collaborative interventions, including smoking cessation programs.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between acromioclavicular (AC) joint pain and superior capsular bulging assessed by ultrasound in adolescent baseball players. METHODS One hundred and fifty players (1st-8th graders) were examined. All subjects underwent physical examinations, including assessment of tenderness on the AC joint and provocative tests (the Buchberger's test and the cross-body adduction stress test). Bilateral AC joints with the arm in both the resting and the cross-body positions were examined by ultrasound. RESULTS Twelve of 150 players (8 %) had AC symptoms with both positive tenderness and positive provocative tests. Interestingly, their prevalence increased with age-one of the 70 (1.4 %) 1st-3rd graders, six of 46 (13 %) 4th-6th graders and five of 34 (15 %) 7th-8th graders. Ultrasonography of AC joints in the cross-body position showed that the difference in superior capsular bulging between the throwing and non-throwing sides was significantly greater in symptomatic players (1.6 ± 1.2 mm) than in asymptomatic players (0.2 ± 0.8 mm) (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION The prevalence of superior capsular bulging was significantly higher in adolescent baseball players with AC joint pain than in those without it. In adolescent baseball players with shoulder pain, AC joint symptoms should be considered amongst potential causes. Careful observation of these patients is suggested in cases of superior capsular bulging of the AC joint as determined by ultrasonography. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
Objectives The bony shoulder stability ratio (BSSR) allows for quantification of the bony stabilisers in vivo. We aimed to biomechanically validate the BSSR, determine whether joint incongruence affects the stability ratio (SR) of a shoulder model, and determine the correct parameters (glenoid concavity versus humeral head radius) for calculation of the BSSR in vivo. Methods Four polyethylene balls (radii: 19.1 mm to 38.1 mm) were used to mould four fitting sockets in four different depths (3.2 mm to 19.1mm). The SR was measured in biomechanical congruent and incongruent experimental series. The experimental SR of a congruent system was compared with the calculated SR based on the BSSR approach. Differences in SR between congruent and incongruent experimental conditions were quantified. Finally, the experimental SR was compared with either calculated SR based on the socket concavity or plastic ball radius. Results The experimental SR is comparable with the calculated SR (mean difference 10%, sd 8%; relative values). The experimental incongruence study observed almost no differences (2%, sd 2%). The calculated SR on the basis of the socket concavity radius is superior in predicting the experimental SR (mean difference 10%, sd 9%) compared with the calculated SR based on the plastic ball radius (mean difference 42%, sd 55%). Conclusion The present biomechanical investigation confirmed the validity of the BSSR. Incongruence has no significant effect on the SR of a shoulder model. In the event of an incongruent system, the calculation of the BSSR on the basis of the glenoid concavity radius is recommended. Cite this article: L. Ernstbrunner, J-D. Werthel, T. Hatta, A. R.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the alteration of passive stiffness in the supraspinatus muscle after double-row (DR) and knotless transosseous-equivalent (KL-TOE) repair techniques, using shear wave elastography (SWE) in cadavers with rotator cuff tears. We also aimed to compare altered muscular stiffness after these repairs to that obtained from shoulders with intact rotator cuff tendon. METHODS Twelve fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders with rotator cuff tear (tear size: small [6], medium-large [6]) were used. Passive stiffness of 4 anatomic regions in the supraspinatus muscle was measured based on an established SWE method. Each specimen underwent DR and KL-TOE footprint repairs at 30° glenohumeral abduction. SWE values, obtained at 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 60°, and 90° abduction, were assessed in 3 different conditions: preoperative (torn) and postoperative conditions with the 2 techniques. The increased ratio of SWE values after repair was compared among the 4 regions to assess stiffness distribution. In addition, SWE values were obtained on 12 shoulders with intact rotator cuff tendons as control. RESULTS In shoulders with medium-large-sized tears, supraspinatus muscles showed an increased passive stiffness after rotator cuff repairs, and this was significantly observed at adducted positions. KL-TOE repair showed uniform stiffness changes among the 4 regions of the supraspinatus muscle (mean, 189% to 218% increase after repair), whereas DR repair caused a significantly heterogeneous stiffness distribution within the muscle (mean, 187% to 319% after repair, P = .002). Although a repair-induced increase in muscle stiffness was observed also in small-sized tears, there were no significant differences in repaired stiffness changes between DR and KL-TOE (mean, 127% to 138% and 127% to 130% after repairs, respectively). Shoulders with intact rotator cuff tendon showed uniform SWE values among the 4 regions of the supraspinatus muscle (mean, 38.2 to 43.0 kPa). CONCLUSIONS Passive stiffness of the supraspinatus muscle increases after rotator cuff repairs for medium-large-sized tears. KL-TOE technique for the medium-large-sized tear provided a more uniform stiffness distribution across the repaired supraspinatus muscles compared with the DR technique. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Based on this insight, investigating rotator cuff muscle stiffness changes, further studies using SWE may determine the optimal repair technique for various sizes of rotator cuff tears.

Abstract
The aim of our study is to evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes in patients with terrible triad injury, who underwent surgical treatment with or without the medial collateral ligament (MCL) repair. Fourteen patients who underwent surgery with a minimum of 12-month follow-up (mean, 17 months) were reviewed. Based on the systematic treatment protocol, radial head fracture, lateral collateral ligament, and coracoid fracture were treated. Subsequently, torn MCL was repaired in 7 patients, whereas in the remaining 7 patients, the MCL was not treated. Range of motion, elbow function, and radiographs regarding the arthrosis and heterotopic ossification were assessed. At final follow-up, no significant differences were found in elbow motion or function between the groups with and without MCL repair; except the pronation and supination which had superior range in repair group. In contrast, radiologic findings such as the arthrosis were seen more frequently in patients without MCL repair than those with repair. Our results indicate the effect of MCL repair on elbow motion and function might be small, whereas osteoarthritic changes occurred more frequently in elbows without MCL repair.

Abstract
Although the margin convergence (MC) technique has been recognized as an option for rotator cuff repair, little is known about the biomechanical effect on repaired rotator cuff muscle, especially after supplemented footprint repair. The purpose of this study was to assess the passive stiffness changes of the supraspinatus (SSP) muscle after MC techniques using shear wave elastography (SWE). A 30 × 40-mm U-shaped rotator cuff tear was created in 8 cadaveric shoulders. Each specimen was repaired with 6 types of MC technique (1-, 2-, 3-suture MC with/without footprint repair, in a random order) at 30° glenohumeral abduction. Passive stiffness of four anatomical regions in the SSP muscle was measured based on an established SWE method. Data were obtained from the SSP muscle at 0° abduction under 8 different conditions: intact (before making a tear), torn, and postoperative conditions with 6 techniques. MC techniques using 1-, or 2-suture combined with footprint repair showed significantly higher stiffness values than the intact condition. Passive stiffness of the SSP muscle was highest after a 1-suture MC with footprint repair for all regions when compared among all repair procedures. There was no significant difference between the intact condition and a 3-suture MC with footprint repair. MC techniques with single stitch and subsequent footprint repair may have adverse effects on muscle properties and tensile loading on repair, increasing the risk of retear of repairs. Adding more MC stitches could reverse these adverse effects.

Abstract
Few randomized trials have shown how the placement of a palmar locking plate affects outcomes. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical and radiological outcomes of fixation using locking plates with different concepts for placement relative to the watershed line in a prospective randomized trial. Sixty-four patients with a displaced distal radius fracture were divided into two groups according to the plates used for fixation: distal-type (AcuLoc(TM), Group A) and proximal-type (VariAx(TM), Group V). Wrist function including the range of motion and grip strength was compared at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Loss of reduction was assessed radiologically. Both groups demonstrated overall satisfactory function at 6 months with no significant difference found between the groups. Minimal loss of reduction was demonstrated in both groups. Internal fixation using the palmar locking plates with two different placements provided satisfactory outcomes at 6-month follow-up, but our results indicate that plates placed distal to the watershed line may delay recovery of wrist motion.

The deltoid muscle plays a critical role in the biomechanics of shoulders undergoing reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). However, both pre- and postoperative assessment of the deltoid muscle quality still remains challenging. The purposes of this study were to establish a novel methodology of shear wave elastography (SWE) to quantify the mechanical properties of the deltoid muscle, and to investigate the reliability of this technique using cadaveric shoulders for the purpose of RSA. Eight fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders were obtained. The deltoid muscles were divided into 5 segments (A1, A2, M, P1 and P2) according to the muscle fiber orientation and SWE values were measured for each segment. Intra- and inter-observer reliability was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). To measure the response of muscle tension during RSA, the humeral shaft was osteotomized and subsequently elongated by an external fixator (intact to 15 mm elongation). SWE of the deltoid muscle was measured under each stretch condition. Intra- and inter-observer reliability of SWE measurements for all regions showed 0.761–0.963 and 0.718–0.947 for ICC(2,1). Especially, SWE measurements for segments A2 and M presented satisfactory repeatability. Elongated deltoid muscles by the external fixator showed a progressive increase in passive stiffness for all muscular segments. Especially, SWE outcomes of segments A2 and M reliably showed an exponential growth upon stretching (R2 = 0.558 and 0.593). Segmental measurements using SWE could be reliably and feasibly used to quantitatively assess the mechanical properties of the deltoid muscle, especially in the anterior and middle portions. This novel technique based on the anatomical features may provide helpful information of the deltoid muscle properties during treatment of RSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shoulder dislocation often recurs, especially in the younger population. Immobilization in external rotation, in which a Bankart lesion is displaced in the anterior, medial, and inferior directions, was introduced as a new method of nonoperative treatment, but its clinical efficiency is controversial. In terms of reducing the lesion, it is reasonable to incorporate not only external rotation, which makes the anterior soft tissues tight to push the lesion posteriorly and laterally, but also abduction, which makes the inferior soft tissues tight to push the lesion superiorly. HYPOTHESIS Abducting the arm during immobilization in external rotation will improve the reduction of a Bankart lesion. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS There were 37 patients with initial shoulder dislocation enrolled in this study. After reduction, MRI was taken in 4 positions of the shoulder: adduction and internal rotation (Add-IR), adduction and external rotation (Add-ER), 30° of abduction and 30° of external rotation (Abd-30ER), and 30° of abduction and 60° of external rotation (Abd-60ER). On radial slices, the separation, displacement of the labrum, and opening angle of the capsule were measured. RESULTS Add-ER improved the reduction of the anterior labrum but not the inferior labrum when compared with Add-IR. Both Abd-30ER and Abd-60ER improved the reduction of the inferior labrum as compared with Add-IR. Furthermore, Abd-60ER improved the reduction more than Add-ER. CONCLUSION Among the 4 positions tested, Abd-60ER is the best position in terms of reducing the Bankart lesion. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Abducting the shoulder during immobilization in external rotation is demonstrated to improve the reduction of the Bankart lesion. Therefore, this position is expected to reduce the recurrence rate after initial dislocation of the shoulder. Future clinical trials are necessary.
