    AJSM October 2024 Podcast: High Rate of Return to Sport in Contact and Collision Athletes After Arthroscopic Latarjet With Cortical Button Fixation

    Contact and collision athletes face a higher risk of recurrent anterior shoulder instability after surgical stabilization. The Latarjet procedure is often preferred given the high incidence of bony lesions. However, this stabilizing procedure, performed either open or arthroscopically, is met with concerns regarding complications and revision surgery rates.   In conclusion, the arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with suture button fixation allowed 82% of athletes with recurrent anterior shoulder instability to return to contact or collision sports. Patients with severe humeral bone defects have a higher risk of persistent anterior apprehension and decreased RTS. The arthroscopic-guided procedure with suture button fixation is safe; accurate, with a high rate of anatomic graft positioning and healing; and reliable, with a low recurrence rate.     Click here to read the article.

    AJSM September 2024 Podcast: Cryo–Pneumatic Compression Results in a Significant Decrease in Opioid Consumption After Shoulder Surgery: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

    The management of pain after shoulder surgery typically includes the use of cryotherapy and the prescription of opioid analgesics. Much focus has been placed lately on the opioid epidemic, which in part is fueled by excessive prescription of opioid medication. Previous studies have found a combination of cryotherapy and compression effective at reducing analgesic consumption and increasing recovery in patients undergoing knee and spine surgery; however, efficacy in patients undergoing shoulder surgery has not been evaluated.   In conclusion, in patients undergoing unilateral shoulder surgery, the use of cryotherapy with pneumatic compression, when compared with standard care, resulted in significantly decreased opioid consumption as well as increased function at 2 weeks.   Click here to read the article.

    AJSM August 2024 Podcast: Fresh Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation of the Capitellum for the Treatment of Osteochondritis Dissecans

    Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humeral capitellum is a rare and challenging condition to treat. Several surgical options exist, but in the last few years, the pendulum has swung from debridement and microfracture to restoration of the articular surface. Osteochondral autografts from the rib and knee have been described, but donor-site morbidity is a concern.   In conclusion, FOCAT is an excellent option for treating OCD lesions of the humeral capitellum. Excellent outcomes and high return-to-sport rates were observed, with midterm follow-up showing no graft failures. FOCAT eliminates donor-site morbidity.     Click here to read the article.

    AJSM July 2024 Podcast: Arthroscopic Bankart Repair With Remplissage in Anterior Shoulder Instability Results in Fewer Redislocations Than Bankart Repair Alone at Medium-term Follow-up of a Randomized Controlled Trial

    A multicenter, double-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing isolated Bankart repair (NO REMP) to Bankart repair with remplissage (REMP) reported benefits of remplissage in reducing recurrent instability at 2 years postoperative. The ongoing benefits beyond this time point are yet to be explored.   In conclusion, for the treatment of traumatic recurrent anterior shoulder instability with a Hill-Sachs lesion and subcritical glenoid bone loss (   Click here to read the article.
