Abstract: The book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the cutting edge arthroscopic transosseous techniques for the treatment of rotator cuff tears, which are gradually taking over from the common open surgical approach, defined as the gold standard for RCR. With the help of numerous figures, it presents step by step a novel all-arthroscopic anchorless transosseous suture technique that is less invasive and easier to perform. After discussing the etiopathogenesis, histopathology and radiological classification of rotator cuff tears, the book reviews all possible arthroscopic procedures and explores in detail suture management, describing single and double tunnel options. It also examines the complications and post-operative rehabilitation and imaging, while the closing chapter addresses the economic aspects of daily use. Intended primarily for arthroscopic surgeons interested in the field of shoulder joint repair, this exhaustive guide is also a valuable resource for residents and shoulder specialists.

Contents: 1. Rotator cuff tear: etiopathogenesis and histopathology -- 2. Rotator cuff tear: classification system (arthroscopic) -- 3. Rotator cuff tear: imaging -- 4. Transosseous rotator cuff repair: rationale -- 5. Transosseous or Transosseous equivalent rotator cuff repair: the difference -- 6. Transosseous tunnel: which arthroscopic device? -- 7. Transosseous rotator cuff repair: which arthroscopic technique? -- 8. Sutures configurations -- 9. Surgical indications/complications -- 10. Postoperative rehabilitation program -- 11.

Abstract: Ideal for shoulder surgeons who want to upgrade their skills to the next level, this practical, step-by-step text presents the latest cutting-edge management strategies and science aimed at shoulder preservation surgery. Highlighting four main areas - the overhead athlete, shoulder instability, glenohumeral arthritis, and the rotator cuff - these innovative techniques focus on the maintenance of the native shoulder joint. Chapters open with an introduction to the clinical problem, followed by misgivings related to open surgery or arthroplasty as treatment strategies. A rationale for the arthroscopic treatment is then presented, along with an in-depth description of the technique itself as well as preliminary results. Techniques presented include posterior capsule release for the overhead athlete, arthroscopic Latarjet for instability, the CAM procedure for glenohumeral arthritis, biological augmentation for rotator cuff repair. A fifth section covers post-operative care and return-to-play considerations. With contributions from many of the top thinkers and surgeons of the shoulder, Elite Techniques in Shoulder Arthroscopy brings these exciting new management strategies to the fore with the aim of elevating them to more common practice for orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists.

Contents: Part I: Overhead Athlete -- Pathophysiology of Throwing Injuries -- Prevention of Labral and Rotator Cuff Injuries in the Overhead Athlete -- Keys to Successful Labral Repair -- Indications and Techniques for Posterior Capsule Release -- Throwing Acquired Anterior Rotator Interval Pathology -- Part II: Instability -- Evaluation of Bone Loss andáthe Glenoid Track -- Management of Capsular Laxity -- Remplissage: Technique and Results -- Arthroscopic Latarjet -- Posterior Instability -- Part III: Glenohumeral Arthritis -- Pearls for Through Debridement, Capsular Release, and the Role of Microfracture -- The Comprehensive Arthroscopic Management (CAM) Procedure for Young Patients with Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis -- Graft Interposition Arthroplasty -- Adhesive Capsulitis: Diagnosis, Etiology and Treatment Strategies -- Part IV: Rotator Cuff -- Ultrasound in Rotator Cuff Evaluation -- Indications for Repair: Who Really Needs Surgery? -- Biologic Augmentation of Rotator Cuff Repair Repair -- Indications and Technique for Double Row Fixation -- Retracted Subscapularis Tears -- Arthroscopic Repair of Massive Retracted Rotator Cuff Tears -- The Use of Graft Augmentation in the Treatment of Massive Rotator Cuff Tears -- Suprascapular Nerve Release: General Principles -- Spinoglenoid Ligament Release -- Part V: Post Op Care -- Maximizing Return to Activity Post Cuff and Instability Surgery -- When is the Patient Truly "Ready to Return", a.k.a.

Abstract: This book is exceptional in providing detailed state of the art guidance on all aspects of transfer of the latissimus dorsi tendon for indications including irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears, irreparable subscapularis tears, and shoulder replacement. In addition to clear, well-illustrated descriptions of arthroscopically assisted surgical technique, readers will find helpful information on biomechanics, surgical indications, post-transfer rehabilitation, and complications and their management. Outcomes from individual studies and meta-analyses are evaluated, and a feature of special interest is the presentation of experiences and results in a series of more than 430 patients using the surgical technique first described by Enrico Gervasi more than 10 years ago. This technique involves modifications in both preparation of the footprint for the latissimus dorsi tendon and the biomechanical features of the tendon transfer and is very different from the procedure proposed by Christian Gerber. The book will be of high value for all orthopedic surgeons who perform this complex shoulder surgery, as well as for residents and fellows-in-training.

Abstract: Presenting a logical, comprehensive approach to the patient with a massive rotator cuff tear, this book begins with the pathoanatomy and diagnostic work-up for this common injury, including imaging. Both non-operative and operative treatment options for massive tears follow, including arthroscopy, the use of biologics and patches, tendon transfers, and hemiarthroplasty and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. A practical treatment algorithm for clinicians treating patients with massive rotator cuff tears is also included. Each chapter opens with pearls and pitfalls covering the main key points for quick reference. The overarching theme of this book is that patients with similar imaging findings may demonstrate very different clinical presentations, and the final treatment recommendation should be made based on their complaints and expectations. As such, it will be an excellent resource for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine and shoulder physicians, physiatrists, physical medicine and rehab specialists, and occupational therapists.

Abstract: Focusing exclusively on reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) techniques and devices, this plentifully illustrated text covers all aspects of this important and innovative treatment for shoulder pain and dysfunction. The book begins with a history of RSA followed by a thorough overview of the basic science and biomechanics of the shoulder. Indications for and clinical applications of RSA in a number of surgical interventions are then described, including the revision of failed shoulder arthroplasty, setting in cases of glenoid and humeral bone loss and rotator cuff tears. A whole section is then dedicated to various commercial devices with descriptive expert analysis of the design and implementation of each. An examination of the current economic value of RSA, including cost effectiveness and expected cost outcomes, comprises the final section. Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty can therefore be read either from start to finish, allowing orthopedic surgeons to appreciate the various perspectives offered, or by selecting specific topics of interest much like a "how-to manual" of either a particular device design or the treatment of a specific pathology.
