Degradable magnesium alloy suture promotes fibrocartilaginous interface regeneration in a rat rotator cuff transosseous repair model

Despite transosseous rotator cuff tear repair using sutures is widely accepted for tendon-bone fixation,the fibrocartilaginous enthesis regeneration is still hardly achieved with the traditional sutures.In the present work,degradable magnesium(Mg)alloy wire was applied to suture supraspinatus tendon in a rat acute rotator cuff tear model with Vicryl Plus 4±0 absorbable suture as control.The shoulder joint humerus-supraspinatus tendon complex specimens were retrieved at 4,8,and 12 weeks after operation.The Mg alloy suture groups showed better biomechanical properties in terms of ultimate load to failure.Gross observation showed that hyperplastic response of the scar tissue at the tendon-bone interface is progressively alleviated over time in the both Mg alloy suture and Vicryl suture groups.In the histological analysis,for Mg alloy suture groups,chondrocytes appear to proliferate at 4 weeks postoperatively,and the tendon-bone interface showed an orderly structural transition zone at 8 weeks postoperatively.The collagenous fiber tended to be aligned and the tendon-bone interlocking structures apparently formed,where transitional structure from unmineralized fibrocartilage to mineralized fibrocartilage was closer to the native fibrocartilaginous enthesis.In vivo degradation of the magnesium alloy wire was completed within 12 weeks.The results indicated that Mg alloy wire was promising as degradable suture with the potential to promotes fibrocartilaginous interface regeneration in rotator cuff repair.

多层螺旋CT上腔静脉三维成像技术在评估Cuff导管植入术后导管功能障碍中的应用价值

目的探讨多层螺旋CT上腔静脉三维成像技术在Cuff导管植入术后评估导管功能障碍中的应用价值。方法回顾性分析2019年5月至2021年8月海军第九七一医院因慢性肾衰竭行双腔带Cuff导管留置术,且术后出现导管功能障碍并接受CT上腔静脉三维成像(上腔静脉CTV)的20例患者的临床资料。上述患者中进行颈部血管彩超者13例、数字减影血管造影(DSA)检查者7例。将上腔静脉CTV结果、彩超结果、DSA检查结果进行比较分析。结果20例接受CT上腔静脉三维成像检查者中,CT图像清晰显示导管植入不同血管的位置,明确显示了导管尖端所在位置。呈现Cuff导管的情况分别为:周围血栓致功能障碍15例,导管滑脱2例,植管后皮下隧道疼痛2例,无明显症状1例。行颈部彩超检查的13例中,仅有1例显示头臂静脉上段血栓形成,5例显示颈部静脉管腔扩张或内径略小或仅有细小血流通过,余7例未显示。行DSA检查7例,均用于分析长期血液透析导管血流量减低及造瘘后肿胀手的原因、DSA引导下重新植管及长期血液透析导管纤维鞘去除术等诊疗应用。结论改良的上腔静脉CT三维成像技术空间分辨率高、可重复性强,能立体直观地显示血液透析患者Cuff导管植入血管位置、尖端所在位置、血管通路是否有血栓形成等情况。颈部血管彩超仅作为粗略评价之用;DSA为有创检查,更倾向用于临床治疗。上腔静脉CTV在敏感性、特异性及检查范围上都有较大优势,是评估Cuff导管植入术后导管功能障碍原因中优先选择的检查方法。

Effect of electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation techniques on shoulder function in patients with rotator cuff injuries

BACKGROUND The rotator cuff is located below the acromion and deltoid muscles and comprises multiple tendons that wrap around the humeral head,maintaining shoulder joint stability.AIM To explore the effect of electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation techniques on shoulder function in patients with rotator cuff injuries.METHODS We selected 97 patients with rotator cuff injuries treated in the People's Hospital of Yuhuan from February 2020 to May 2023.Patients were grouped using the envelope method.RESULTS After treatment,the study group’s treatment effective rate was 94.90%(46/49 patients),significantly higher than that in the control group(79.17%,38/48 cases;P<0.05).Before treatment,there was no difference in Constant Murley Score(CMS)scores,shoulder mobility,or 36-Item Short Form Health Survey(SF-36)scale scores(P>0.05).Compared with those before treatment,the CMS scores(including pain,daily living ability,shoulder mobility,and muscle strength),all aspects of shoulder mobility(forward flexion,posterior extension,external rotation,internal rotation),and SF-36 scale scores(including physiological,psychological,emotional,physical,vitality,and health status)were higher in both groups after treatment and significantly higher in the study group(P<0.05).There was no difference in the occurrence of complications between the two treatment groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION Electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation techniques has a good treatment effect on patients with rotator cuff injuries,helps accelerate the recovery of shoulder function,improves the quality of life,and is highly safe.

Application of multidisciplinary team-based integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine in rotator cuff injury patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery

BACKGROUND Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is a common surgical treatment for rotator cuff injuries(RCIs).Although this procedure has certain clinical advantages,it requires rehabilitation management interventions to ensure therapeutic efficacy.AIM To investigate the effect of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine(TCM-WM)under the multidisciplinary team(MDT)model on the postoperative recovery of patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery for RCIs.METHODS This study enrolled 100 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair for RCIs at the Seventh People’s Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2021 and May 2024.They were divided into a control group(n=48)that received routine rehabilitation treatment and an experimental group(n=52)that received TCM-WM under the MDT model(e.g.,acupuncture,TCM traumatology and orthopedics,and rehabilitation).The results of the Constant–Murley Shoulder Score(CMS),Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI),muscular strength evaluation,and shoulder range of motion(ROM)assessments were analyzed.RESULTS After treatment,the experimental group showed significantly higher CMS scores in terms of pain,functional activity,shoulder joint mobility,and muscular strength than the baseline and those of the control group.The experimental group also exhibited significantly lower VAS and SPADI scores than the baseline and those of the control group.In addition,the experimental group showed significantly enhanced muscular strength(forward flexor and external and internal rotator muscles)and shoulder ROM(forward flexion,abduction,and lateral abduction)after treatment compared with the control group.CONCLUSION TCM-WM under the MDT model improved shoulder joint function,relieved postoperative pain,promoted postoperative functional recovery,and facilitated the recovery of muscular strength and shoulder ROM in patients with RCIs who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

Ultrasound of the Rotator Cuff in Non-Fractured Shoulder Trauma: 30 Cases at the Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso)

Introduction: Ultrasound is the imaging technique of choice for the study of rotator cuff lesions. However, in the case of shoulder trauma, it is rarely requested in our context. This study aimed to show ultrasound lesions of the rotator cuff in cases of non-fracture shoulder trauma at the CHUYO in Ouagadougou. Methodology: This was a prospective descriptive cross-sectional study running from August 1 to November 30, 2017, in the medical imaging department of CHUYO. The study population consisted of patients received in the department for ultrasound in the context of non-fracture shoulder trauma. Results: We collected 20 cases (66.67%) of rotator cuff lesions out of 30 non-fracture shoulder injuries. The mean age of the patients was 27.6 years. Road traffic accidents accounted for 60% of injuries, sports accidents for 30%, and domestic accidents for 10%. Ultrasound lesions were mainly tendon ruptures (36.67%) and tendinitis (23.33%). Ruptures were non-transfixing in 90.90% of cases. The supraspinatus was the most affected (81.81%). Conclusion: Ultrasound can help diagnose rotator cuff injuries, particularly in non-fractured shoulder trauma.

Rotator cuff repair with an interposition polypropylene mesh:A biomechanical ovine study

BACKGROUND Chronic large to massive rotator cuff tears are difficult to treat and re-tears are common even after surgical repair.We propose using a synthetic polypropylene mesh to increase the tensile strength of rotator cuff repairs.We hypothesize that using a polypropylene mesh to bridge the repair of large rotator cuff tears will increase the ultimate failure load of the repair.AIM To investigate the mechanical properties of rotator cuff tears repaired with a polypropylene interposition graft in an ovine ex-vivo model.METHODS A 20 mm length of infraspinatus tendon was resected from fifteen fresh sheep shoulders to simulate a large tear.We used a polypropylene mesh as an interposition graft between the ends of the tendon for repair.In seven specimens,the mesh was secured to remnant tendon by continuous stitching while mattress stitches were used for eight specimens.Five specimens with an intact tendon were tested.The specimens underwent cyclic loading to determine the ultimate failure load and gap formation.RESULTS The mean gap formation after 3000 cycles was 1.67 mm in the continuous group,and 4.16 mm in the mattress group(P=0.001).The mean ultimate failure load was significantly higher at 549.2 N in the continuous group,426.4 N in the mattress group and 370 N in the intact group(P=0.003).CONCLUSION The use of a polypropylene mesh is biomechanically suitable as an interposition graft for large irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Effects of different positions on rehabilitation after rotator cuff repair under shoulder arthroscopy

Objective Shoulder arthroscopic rotator cuff tear repair is currently the main treatment for full-thickness rotator cuff tears,and postoperative rehabilitation training is essential.However,pain and limitation of activity during the rehabilitation process will lead to poor results.Hence,identifying rehabilitation approaches is crucial.This study aimed to compare patient's rehabilitation outcomes and experience between rehabilitation in the supine position and in the standing position.Methods This prospective study included patients diagnosed with full-thickness rotator cuff tears who underwent shoulder arthroscopic double-row rivet repair at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from March 2019 to September 2021.The patients were randomly assigned to the standing rehabilitation exercise group(group A)and the supine rehabilitation exercise group(group B).All patients were followed up for 6 months to record and compare the visual analog scale(VAS)scores,shoulder range of motion,and rehabilitation compliance.Results Altogether,86 patients participated in the study,of whom 79 patients completed the 6-month follow-up.Groups A and B had 39 and 40 patients,respectively.Before operation,the VAS score,forward flexion and extension angle,and abduction angle were comparable between groups A and B.After operation,the patients in groups A and B all experienced a significant improvement in the VAS score,forward flexion and extension angle,and abduction angle(p<0.05).In addition,patients in group B had better VAS score(4.58±0.87 vs.5.21±1.13,p=0.0068;2.15±0.66 vs.2.51±0.51,p=0.0078;0.78±0.86 vs.1.33±0.81,p=0.0015),forward flexion and extension angle(109.30±2.87°vs.102.33±3.74°,p=0.0001;109.53±3.39°vs.104.18±2.76°,p=0.0001;125.22±6.05°vs.117.59±2.27°,p=0.0001),and abduction angle(91.78±2.77°vs.82.92±2.12°,p=0.0001;91.62±2.78°vs.82.82±1.45°,p=0.0001;109.48±3.37°vs.100.10±2.94°,p=0.0001)at 2 wk,6 wk and 6 m postoperatively.Conclusion After 6 months of follow-up,the patients who performed rehabilitation exercises in the supine position achieved better rehabilitation outcomes than those who performed rehabilitation exercises while standing.

Long head of biceps tendon transposition for massive and irreparable rotator cuff tears:A systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND Superior capsular reconstruction(SCR)with long head of biceps tendon(LHBT)transposition was developed to massive and irreparable rotator cuff tears(MIRCTs);however,the outcomes of this technique remain unclear.AIM To perform a systematic review of biomechanical outcomes and a meta-analysis of clinical outcomes after LHBT transposition for MIRCTs.METHODS We performed a systematic electronic database search on PubMed,EMBASE,and Cochrane Library.Studies of SCR with LHBT transposition were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Biomechanical studies were assessed for main results and conclusions.Included clinical studies were evaluated for quality of methodology.Data including study characteristics,cohort demographics,and outcomes were extracted.A meta-analysis was conducted of the clinical outcomes.RESULTS According to our inclusion and exclusion criteria,a total of six biomechanical studies were identified and reported an overall improvement in subacromial contact pressures and prevention of superior humeral migration without limiting range of motion(ROM)after LHBT transposition for MIRCTs.A total of five clinical studies were included in the meta-analysis of LHBT transposition outcomes,consisting of 253 patients.The results indicated that compared to other surgical methods for MIRCTs,LHBT transposition had advantages of more significant improvement in ROM(forward flexion mean difference[MD]=6.54,95%confidence interval[CI]:3.07-10.01;external rotation[MD=5.15,95%CI:1.59-8.17];the acromiohumeral distance[AHD][MD=0.90,95%CI:0.21-1.59])and reducing retear rate(odds ratio=0.27,95%CI:0.15-0.48).No significant difference in American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score,visual analogue scale score,and University of California at Los Angles score was demonstrated between these two groups for MIRCTs.CONCLUSION In general,SCR with LHBT transposition was a reliable and economical technique for treating MIRCTs,both in terms of biomechanical and clinical outcomes,with comparable clinical outcomes,improved ROM,AHD,and reduced the retear rates compared to conventional SCR and other established techniques.More high-quality randomized controlled studies on the long-term outcomes of SCR with LHBT transposition are required to further assess.

Role of platelet-rich plasma in the treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy

Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint,and rotator cuff(RC)pathologies are one of the main causes.The RC undergoes various tendinopathic and avascular changes during the aging process.Other degenerative changes affecting its healing potential make it an appealing target for biological agents.Platelet-rich plasma(PRP)has demonstrated the potential to deliver a high concentration of several growth factors and anti-inflammatory mediators,and its clinical use is mainly supported by experiments that demonstrated its positive effect on muscle,ligaments,and tendinous cells.This review aimed to specify the role of PRP and its future applications in RC tendinopathies based on the current clinical evidence.Due to the different characteristics and conflicting outcomes,clinicians should use PRP with moderate expectations until more consistent evidence is available.However,it is reasonable to consider PRP in patients with contraindications to corticosteroid injections or those with risk factors for inadequate healing.Its autologous origin makes it a safe treatment,and its characteristics make it a promising option for treating RC tendinopathy,but the efficacy has yet to be established.

Bilateral dislocation of the long head of biceps tendon with intact rotator cuff tendon:A case report

BACKGROUND Dislocation of the long head of biceps tendon(LHBT)usually involves rotator cuff injury,and isolated dislocation with an intact rotator cuff is rare.Some cases of isolated dislocation have been reported.However,to the best of our knowledge,there has been no report of bilateral dislocation of the LHBT without rotator cuff pathology.CASE SUMMARY A 23-year-old male presented to our outpatient clinic with left side dominant pain in both shoulders.The patient had no history of trauma or overuse.The patient underwent intra-articular injection and physical therapy,but his symptoms aggravated.Based on preoperative imaging,the diagnosis was bilateral dislocation of the LHBT.Dysplasia of the bicipital groove was detected in both shoulders.Active dislocation of the biceps tendon over an intact subscapularis tendon was identified by diagnostic arthroscopy.Staged biceps tenodesis was performed and continuous passive motion therapy was administered immediately after surgery.The patient’s pain was resolved,and full functional recovery was achieved,and he was satisfied with the condition of his shoulders.CONCLUSION This study describes a rare case of bilateral dislocations of the LHBT without rotator cuff injury due to dysplasia of the bicipital groove.

目的探讨糖尿病对关节镜下肩袖修复术后病人肩关节功能恢复的影响。方法回顾性分析我科自2019年5月至2022年5月接受关节镜下肩袖修复术的62例肩袖损伤病人的临床资料和随访结果,其中糖尿病组30例,男18例,女12例,年龄为(62.10±11.87)岁;对照组32例,男18例,女14例,年龄为(63.78±12.98)岁。手术方式均为关节镜下缝线桥技术缝合肩袖。分别记录两组病人术前1周、术后3个月、6个月和12个月各时间点肩关节最大外展角度值,以及肩关节功能评分,包括疼痛视觉模拟量表(visual analogue scale,VAS)评分、美国肩肘外科协会(American Shoulder Elbow Surgeon,ASES)评分、加州大学洛杉矶分校(University of California at Los Angeles,UCLA)肩关节评分以及Constant⁃Murley评分。据此对手术效果进行评估。结果62例病人均未出现伤口感染、术后僵硬、术后再撕裂等并发症。两组病人的肩关节最大外展角度值、VAS评分、ASES评分、UCLA评分以及Constant⁃Murley评分均在术后3个月、6个月和1年得到显著改善(P<0.05)。糖尿病组的肩关节最大外展角度值及各肩关节功能评分在术前1周、术后3个月及6个月时均劣于对照组(P<0.05),但在术后12个月时,糖尿病组与对照组比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论糖尿病对关节镜下肩袖修复术后的病人短期恢复会存在影响,但长期临床结果没有显著差异。围手术期血糖控制良好的糖尿病病人在关节镜下肩袖修复术后表现出与非糖尿病病人相当的临床和结构恢复。
