견관절의 안정요소 중 정적 안정요소는 관절와 상완 연골 인대 복합체나 관절 일치성 등으로서 재활 과정 중 신장 운동에 관여하며, 회전근 개 근육과 각 관절 사이의 운동 조화 등으로 이루어진 동적 안정요소는 근력 강화 운동으로 재활이 이루어진다. 견관절 불안정성에 대한 수술 후 재활은 복원된 조직을 보호하면서 동시에 주위 조직과의 유착을 방지하고 관절 운동 범위를 향상하기 위해 통증을 유발하지 않는 범위 내에서 부드러운 수동 관절 운동을 먼저 실시한다. 능동적 관절운동은 수술한 조직이 치유될 충분한 시간이 경과되었거나 환자가 통증없이 독립적인 견관절 운동이 가능할 때 실시한다. 견갑와 상완 관절뿐만 아니라 견갑 흉곽 운동과 견갑골 부착 근육에 대한 재활이 제대로 이루어져야 수술 후 만족할 만한 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 끝으로 본문에 상술한 모든 재활 프로그램은 환자의 개개인의 특성에 맞춰 운동 내용과 시기를 조정하여 개별화해야 효과적인 재활이 이루어질 수 있다.

Purpose: This study prospectively evaluated the outcome of arthroscopic transtendinous repair as a treatment for partial articular side tears of the rotator cuff. Materials and Methods: Fifteen patients with symptomatic, partial articular side tears of the rotator cuff underwent modified transtendinous repair. The patient's mean age was 52.5 years and the mean duration of symptoms was 33.7 weeks. The visual analogue scale (VAS), the ASES score, the active ROM of the shoulder and the patient's satisfaction were evaluated both preoperatively and postoperatively. The clinical results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon's signed rank test. Results: The mean VAS was $6.6\pm1.1$ before treatment and $0.4\pm0.6$ at 6 month, and the ASES scores for all the patients were significantly better over the six-month period of follow-up (p<0.05). The mean active ROM in abduction was $94.3\pm22.3$ before treatment, $108.7\pm16.3$ at 1 month (p=0.0041) and $164.3\pm5.3$ at six months (p=0.0006). In flexion, it was $105.0\pm23.8$ before treatment, $119.0\pm17.4$ at 1 month(p=0.0075) and $174.3\pm5.3$ at six months (p=0.0006). At the final follow-up, 94% of patients were satisfied or very satisfied after operation. Conclusion: We experienced satisfactory clinical results after a short-term follow-up of arthroscopic transtendinous repair, and we believed this to be an effective procedure for patients with partial articular side tears of the rotator cuff.

Purpose: We reported the results and efficiency of arthroscopic treatment in a state of the lateral traction about the degenerative arthris of elbow Materials and Methods: Twenty one elbows with the degenerative arthritis who were followed up for at 12 months were enrolled in this study. Male were 15 cases, female were 6 cases, the mean age was 47 years and right dominant hand was 14 cases. In all cases, during arthroscopic treatment under the traction of 10 pounds, we had done synovectomy, excision of loose body and anteroposterior spur. After operation, immobilization was done in the full extension state, and then continuous passive motion (CPM) was started two day Results: The average preoperative ROM of the elbow joint was $30{\sim}l15$ degree and the average postoperative ROM of the elbow joint was $5{\sim}130$ degree. The increasement of ROM was totally 41 degree in extension 25 degree and flexion 16 degree. The decrement of VAS in pain was from 7.5 into 2.3 and the increasement of the satisfactory function was from 1.8 into 9.0. Complication was in two cases. One was paresthesia of ulnar nerve, but resolved. The other was bullae formation around the elbow joint, but cured. Conclusion: Regarding degenerative arthritis of elbow, arthroscopic treatment showed excellent result in recovery of range of motion and relief of pain. We could obtain good visual field with distraction in lateral position.

The incidence of septic arthritis after knee arthroscopy surgery has rarely been reported in approximately 0.04% to 3.4%. Moreover, septic arthritis after arthroscopic meniscal repair is more rare. There have been some reported cases, but in Korea, it has not been reported thus far. Herein, we report two cases of septic arthritis after arthroscopic meniscal repair with review of literature.

연골 결손은 자체 치유 능력이 적어 그 크기가 1 cm 이상인 경우 골관절염이 발생할 수 있다. 최근에는 3-tesla MRI 등의 발전으로 인해 수술 전에 미리 연골 손상을 정확히 진단할 수 있어 연골 손상의 치료를 더욱 적극적으로 할 수 있다. 이제까지 연골 손상에 대한 수술적 치료는 세척술(lavage) 및 변연 절제술(debridement), 미세 천공술(microfracture), 자가 골연골 이식술(autologous osteochondral graft), 자가 연골 세포 이식술(autologous chondrocyte implantation, ACI), 동종 골연골 이식술(osteochondral allograft)이 있다.

Purpose: To evaluate the usefulness of minimally invasive arthroscopy-assisted plate removal of a laterally inserted periarticular distal femur plate used for the treatment of AO type-C distal femur fractures. Materials and Methods: From October 2002 to November 2005, we evaluated 17 patients whose plates were removed through minimally invasive arthroscopy-assisted plate-removal technique and 15 patients who got their plates removed through conventional method without using arthroscopy, 32 patients in total. All these patients included in this study initially underwent open reduction and internal fixation of the distal femoral fractures with a lateral plate, and complained of continued pain over the lateral femoral condyle after the fracture fixation. The average age was 42.6 (ranges: 20~66) and initial fracture types included 16 cases of C1, 11 cases of C2, and 5 cases of C3 following AO/ASIF classification guidelines. Measured outcomes included: associated intra-articular pathologies, time needed to return to activities of daily living, patients' overall satisfaction, complications following the removal of hardware, and pain before and 6 months after the operation. Results: The distal-most end of the plate was placed in the knee joint in all cases and damage of the lateral articular capsule was found in 23 cases. Continuous wound discharge after surgery was found in one case who underwent arthroscopy-assisted plate removal, and it was treated by irrigation and re-suture. Average time needed to return to activities of daily living was 7 days in arthroscopy assisted group and 7.6 days in conventionally removed group. Fourteen patients (82.4%) who underwent arthroscopyassisted plate-removal reported above 'fair' satisfaction and the Visual analog scale pain score decreased from 4.9 to 1.9, six months after the plate removal. Thirteen patients(86.7%) who underwent conventional plate removal reported above 'fair' satisfaction and the Visual analog scale pain score decreased from 5.2 to 2.5, six months after the operation. Conclusion: Through minimally invasive arthroscopic-assisted plate removal, intrarticular pathology of the knee joint was able to be simultaneously identified and treated at the time of hardware removal. Damage of lateral capsule of the knee joint caused by the inserted plate for the treatment of type C distal femoral fracture was very frequently found and following the plate removal, patients experienced an improvement in pain score. We therefore recommend routine lateral distal femoral plate removal if the bony union is attained in such cases as type C distal femoral fractures whose distal most end of the plates are located in the joint.
