An intraosseous ganglion typically exists in periarticular epiphysis or subchondral area, and is usually treated with open curettage of cyst or curettage and bone graft. We report a case of intraosseous ganglion of talus treated by endoscopic curettage and bone grafting with a review of the literature.

A subtalar dislocation of the foot is a dislocation of the talonavicular and talocalcaneal joint while the tibiotalar relationship is unchanged. Posterior subtalar dislocation in particular, is a extremely rare. Only a few cases were reported previously in the literature. We treated a 25 year-old man who sustained the posterior subtalar dislocation in high energy traffic accident. The dislocation of subtalar joint was reduced by closed means with excellent clinical result. In this paper, we report 1 case of posterior dislocation of the subtalar joint and describe the pathomechanics, diagnosis, and treatment.

Posterior root tear of the medial meniscus are well known. Although very rare, there are reports of anterior root tears of the medial meniscus but no reports on traumatic bony avulsion of the anterior medial meniscus root. This paper reports a case of an isolated bony avulsion of the anterior medial meniscus root, which was successfully repaired arthroscopically.

The most common anatomic location of calcific tendinitis is the suprasupinatus muscle of the shoulder joint. However, it is known to develop in any joint including the hip, knee. Infarction of skeletal muscle in the distal areas of the limbs due to vascular occlusion is a well recognized systemic condition in patients who have diabetes. The author experienced mass-like lesion combined muscle infarction and calcification within pure semitendinosus tendon without diabetes in posterosuperior area of distal thigh in old age.

29 year-old male was suffered from deep shoulder pain and muscle weakness 2 years ago. Recently 2 month ago lancinating shoulder pain and night pain was progressed. physical examination and MRI and EMG finding showed suprascapular nerve compression syndrome due to ganglion cyst in the shoulder joint. Arthroscopic ganglion cyst excision was performed and his symptoms was improved. 2 years later shoulder pain was developed in abduction and external rotation position and mild discomfort was continued. In second operation, SLAP lesion was found and arthroscopic SLAP repair was performed. Our case presented SLAP lesion occurred arthroscopic ganglion excision in the shoulder joint 2 years later.

Purpose: We wanted to review the arthroscopic Remplissage technique and introduce our experiences with it for treating recurrent shoulder instability with a large Hill-Sachs lesion. Materials and Methods: The arthroscopic Remplissage technique with Bankart repair is performed in patients with no osteoarthritis, no fracture around the shoulder, a history of recurrence more than 10 times, a large Hill-Sachs lesion more than 30 to 40% of the humeral articular surface and glenoid bone loss less than 20%. Results and Conclusion: For recurrent shoulder instability with a large Hill-Sachs lesion, the Remplissage technique resulted in a good outcome for the shoulder stability, and good clinical and functional results.

Ultrasonography of shoulder joint recently enlarges its utility since the knowledge of the shoulder disease is increased by numerous researches. Ultrasonography is not only noninvasive, safe, and relatively cheap, but also an unique modality that can monitor tendon movement during shoulder motion. Sonographic examination generally starts from the front side of the shoulder joint and finishes at back side in sitting position. Many structures in shoulder joint such as muscles, ligaments, glenoid labrum, bone, and especially rotator cuff tendon can be examined by ultrasonography. The rotator cuff is a motion unit consisted with subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and teres minor muscles. It functions as fulcrum and compresses the humeral head onto the glenoid, and steers for shoulder joint.

Purpose: We introduce arthroscopic assisted core decompression for humeral head osteonecrosis. Operative technique: After diagnostic shoulder arthroscopy is performed using posterior and anterior portal, we make a 2 cm lateral skin incision approximately 3 cm distal to 1/3 of lateral margin of the acromion and place short gray cannula to prevent adjacent soft tissue injury when insert guide pin. Under C-arm fluoroscopic and arthroscopic guidance, 3 to 4 guide pins are inserted toward the necrotic area. Then we perform drilling using 7.0 mm reamer. Conclusion: We believe this technique is a less invasive approach and avoids the complications comparing to deltopectoral approach. Arthroscopic assisted core decompression is an effective procedure in management of early stage of the humeral head osteonecoris.

The medial meniscal root tear is relatively common internal derangement of knee that is occurred in middle age without trauma. We experienced a case of traumatic medial meniscal root tear in 11 years old child and repaired it with a metallic suture anchor. Thus we report this case with a review of current literature.

The position of the automobile seat back is very important for the neck injury in the rear-end collisions. The effects of the position have been evaluated experimentally. A sled simulator is utilized with a velocity of 33 km/h. The position is varied by the angle of seat back from 25 to 65 degrees. All the configurations of the seat are fixed except the angle. The neck injuries are calculated by the equations accepted in the industries. Also, the sled tests with other velocities are carried out for the comparison study. Using the results of the test, the effects of seat back strength are discussed to minimize the occupant neck injury in rear end collisions.
