Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction (aSCR) has emerged as a treatment option for managing massive rotator cuff tears (MRCTs) given the unpredictable results after an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (aRCR). Yet, few comparative studies of aSCR and aRCR have been conducted.

There is no practical consensus on managing cholesterol in patients with rotator cuff repair despite hyperlipidemia and statin therapy being well-known factors in rotator cuff healing. The 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk score is a commonly used guideline to determine statin administration for hyperlipidemia.

Atrophy of the rotator cuff is a negative prognostic indicator after rotator cuff repair. Although full-thickness rotator cuff tears accompanied by tendon retraction are commonly associated with decreased muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), it is unclear whether this is accompanied by histologic atrophy of rotator cuff myofibers.

Adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheets have been shown to promote tendon-to-bone healing. However, conventional laboratory preparation methods for ADSC sheets are time-consuming and risky, which precludes their diverse clinical applications.

Traumatic anterior shoulder instability is common in the adolescent athlete, and when it is untreated, the recurrence rate is high. Atypical lesions—such as anterior glenoid periosteal sleeve, humeral glenohumeral ligament, and insertional tendon avulsions—may occur within this population, and accurate diagnosis and appropriate lesion management are key to treatment success.

The healing capacity of the human glenoid labrum varies by tear location. Current evidence suggests that the healing capacity of meniscal and cartilage injuries relates to cellular composition and vascularity. However, little is known about the histological characteristics of the glenoid labrum and how they may affect healing potential in specific anatomic regions.

Frozen shoulder is a common, painful, and movement-restricting condition. Although primary frozen shoulder is idiopathic, secondary frozen shoulder can occur after trauma or surgery. Prophylactic and therapeutic options are often unsatisfactory. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a potent physiological antioxidant and likely inhibits the activation of nuclear factor κB, which plays a decisive role in inflammatory reactions.

The semitendinosus (ST) tendon can be used by itself as a graft for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. An increasing number of these procedures are being done while preserving the ST's tibial attachment, but there are no data on the remodeling of an attached ST (aST) graft.

To the authors’ knowledge, no previous study has thoroughly described the anteroposterior dimensions of tibial spine fractures (TSFs) on 3-dimensional imaging. The extension of TSFs into weightbearing regions of the tibial plateau, posterior extension within the epiphysis, and potential association between fracture size and patient age may have implications for treatment strategies and clinical outcomes.

Tibial deflexion osteotomy (TDO) is sometimes indicated for revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in knees with posterior tibial slope (PTS) ≥12° and aims to decrease PTS to around 5°. When planning TDO, measuring the anterior tibial metaphyseal height (aHt) could help ascertain whether the available metaphyseal bone would be sufficient to create the wedge and leave adequate residual bone.

Previous studies have examined the effect of whole body (WB) parameters on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) strain and loads, as well as knee joint kinetics and kinematics. However, articular cartilage damage occurs in relation to ACL failure, and the effect of WB parameters on ACL strain and articular cartilage biomechanics during dynamic tasks is unclear.

The effect of a concurrent cartilage procedure in lateral meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) in patients with bipolar cartilage lesions (high-grade lesions on both the femoral and the tibial side) is not well studied. An objective evaluation of graft status after MAT and a concurrent cartilage procedure has not been reported.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been used extensively in clinical practice to treat patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA). Leukocyte-poor PRP (LP-PRP) has been clinically preferred over leukocyte-rich PRP (LR-PRP); however, it is unclear which cytokine mediators of pain and inflammation are present in LR-PRP and LP-PRP from patients with mild to moderate knee OA in order to rationalize a specific formulation.

Ankle lateral ligament sprains are common injuries in sports, and some may result in persistent ankle pain and a feeling of instability without clinical evidence of instability. The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) has 2 distinct fascicles, and recent publications have suggested that injury isolated to the superior fascicle might be the cause of these chronic symptoms. This study aimed to identify the biomechanical properties conferred by the fascicles in stabilizing the ankle in order to understand potential clinical problems that may follow when the fascicles are injured.

Debate centering on the management of anterior shoulder instability (ASI) in recent years has led to many randomized controlled trials (RCTs) being published on the topic. The fragility index (FI) has subsequently emerged as a novel method of assessing significant findings reported in RCTs, particularly those with small sample sizes.

Focal cartilage lesions represent a common source of knee pain and disability, with the potential for the development and progression of osteoarthritis. Currently, microfracture (MFx) represents the most utilized first–line surgical treatment for small, focal chondral lesions. Recent investigations have examined methods of overcoming the limitations of MFx utilizing various augmentation techniques.

The use of orthobiologics is expanding. However, the use of orthobiologic augmentation in primary fracture fixation surgery remains limited. Primary fracture fixation of the fifth metatarsal (Jones) in athletes is one of the rare situations where primary orthobiologic augmentation has been advocated.
