Management of first time shoulder dislocation
This article discusses the evidence in the literature and current guidelines for the management of first time shoulder dislocation, proposing surgical management for young active patients following a first-time dislocation, most often an arthroscopic labral repair.

A treatment algorithm for locked posterior dislocation of shoulder
ConclusionEarly diagnosis is desirable to avoid invasive non-anatomical procedures. Assessment of critical fragment and reverse Hill Sachs will achieve a more accurate osteotomy. A native cartilage transfer is much better than iliac crest grafting. The derotation osteotomy is reserved for malunited fracture dislocation patients presenting late and less than optimal results are likely. All the patients presenting late beyond a year inevitably required a hemiarthroplasty. (Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery)

Anterior shoulder instability in collision and contact athletes
Publication date: May–August 2018Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery, Volume 5, Issue 2Author(s): Owen Mattern, Lennard Funk, Michael J. WaltonAbstractGlenohumeral instability is a common problem for the collision and contact athlete. An understanding of the pathoanatomy, aetiology and injury mechanisms can help guide the clinical examination and appropriate investigations. This in turn can help guide appropriate management of patients, with the aim to return them to pre-injury levels of sport. (Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery)

Remplissage as a concept and role in instability
Publication date: May–August 2018Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery, Volume 5, Issue 2Author(s): Vivek Pandey, Sandesh MadiAbstractAnterior instability of the shoulder is characterised by bipolar lesions – the Bankart lesion with glenoid bone loss on ‘glenoid side’ and the Hill- Sach’s defect (HSD) on the ‘humeral head’. It is well known that the recurrence of the dislocation is likely to be more frequent even after surgical repair in the presence of these lesions. Currently, by and large, two surgical options are available to address the glenoid side lesion: Bankart repair (soft tissue procedur...

Acromioclavicular arthritis: A review
Publication date: May–August 2018Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery, Volume 5, Issue 2Author(s): Raju Vaishya, Vijendra Damor, Amit Kumar Agarwal, Vipul VijayAbstractAcromioclavicular arthritis is one of the most common causes of pain around the shoulder joint in middle-aged and elderly population. It is because of early degeneration of the articular cartilage and disc. The disease usually remains asymptomatic, and it presents as an incidental finding on shoulder X-Ray or Magnetic resonance imaging. It can be due to primary degenerative, inflammatory, traumatic and infective arthritis. The patient may also ...

Does intraarticular PRP injection improve function, pain and quality of life in patients with OA of knee? Case control study of 50 patients
This study showed that intra articular PRP knee injection combined with therapeutic exercise can be more effective in pain reduction and improvement of stiffness and quality of life, compared with therapeutic exercise alone. (Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery)

The Management of Sternoclavicular Instability
This article outlines the clinical presentations, investigations and the principles behind the available treatment options that can ensure a safe return to a normally functioning shoulder. Instability of the SCJ may happen after a traumatic event or atraumatically with or without joint laxity. The clinician should promptly differentiate the two pathomechanisms as management of them differs significantly. The Stanmore instability triangle is a useful tool when assessing patients with chronic SCJ instability as it enables the clinician to recognise the factors that drive the instability and treat each component separately an...
