Although the prevalence of rotator cuff tears is dependent on the size, 11% to 94% of patients experience retear or healing failure after rotator cuff repair. Treatment of patients with failed rotator cuff repair ranges widely, from conservative treatment to arthroplasty. This review article attempts to summarize the most recent and relevant surgical options for failed rotator cuff repair patients, and the outcomes of each treatment, except arthroplasty.

Purpose: This research was conducted to compare the effects of a muscle strengthening exercise program on pain, straight leg raising ability, passive range of motion, independent walking time and satisfaction with total knee arthroplasty(TKA). Method: A nonequivalent control group posttest only design was used for this study. A total of 62 patients were randomly divided into the experimental group(31) and the control group (31). The experimental group received a 1-hour exercise intervention, while the control group received the usual care. Data was analyzed by t-test using the SPSS/WIN 11.0. Results: The experimental group showed significant improvement in pain score, straight leg raising ability, passive range of motion of knee joint, independent walking time, and the patient's satisfaction. Conclusion: The muscle strengthening exercise program was effective on decreasing pain and increasing mobility and satisfaction in patients with TKA.

Severe osteoarthrosis of the knee joint often requires total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to yield adequate knee function. The knee joint with TKA is expected ideally to restore the characteristics, however, this is not necessarily true in the clinical cases. In this study the motions of the intact joint and the joint after TKA were investigated numerically using computer simulation. For active knee extension from 90 degrees of flexion to full extension, the intact knee joint exhibited anterior tibial translation near the full extension while it showed only rotation for other flexion angles. Physiologic external rotation of the tibia near full extension was also noted in the analytical model. The analysis of the tibial insert of three different shapes (flat, semicurved, and curved types) demonstrated characteristic rotational and sliding motions as well as different contact forces.

Recent clinical studies have shown that computer navigation for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) provides improved component alignment accuracy. However, femoral stress fracture after computernavigated TKA have been reported due to the pin hole and we hypothesized that osteoporosis would be one of the key factors in pin hole fracture after computer-navigated TKA. We investigated the von-Mises stress around the femoral pin-hole for different elastic modulli and ultimate stresses and four different pin penetration modes to understand the aging effect on femoral stress fracture risk after computer-navigated TKA by finite element analysis. In this study, aging effect was shown to increase the femoral stress fracture risk for all pin penetration modes. Especially, aging effect was shown dramatically in the transcortical pin penetration mode.

Historically, the decision to perform a hemiarthroplasty (HHR) versus a total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is based on the status of the glenoid and the status of the soft tissues (rotator cuff). In disease processes where the glenoid articular cartilage is relatively well preserved such as avascular necrosis and complex proximal humerus fractures, most orthopaedists recommend performing a HHR while preserving the native glenoid articular surface. At the other end of the spectrum, if the glenoid has excessive bone loss or is unreconstructible, a HHR is the preferred procedure. In patients who have deficient so(t-tissues (rotator cuff) such as rotator cuff tear arthropathy and, occasionally, rheumatoid arthritis, a HHR is the procedure of choice. The indications for HHR in osteoarthritis remain somewhat controversial. There is mounting evidence that performing a HHR for osteoarthritis is inferior to TSA. Recent developments, or 'third generation techniques and materials', in shoulder arthroplasty are expected to improve the longevity of TSA, particularly the glenoid component. In addition, newer designs of reverse-ball prostheses are entering the market with promising early results in patients with deficient rotator cuff mechanisms.

l. Objectives To analyse gait disturbance of patient who was operated Total Hip Replacement Arthroplasty(THRA). 'This study is reported to emphasize on psychological stability and balance of vital dynamics. 2. Methods This patient was treated by the remedy of Soyangin, who was diagnosed as Soyangin. We used visual analogue scale(V AS) for the assessment of Rt. femoral pain. 3. Results The patients operated THRA are needed not only rehabilitation of gait, but also psychological stability and balance of vital dynamics. 4. Conclusions We suggest that patients operated THRA are needed not only rehabilitation of gait, but also psychological stability and balance of vital dynamics.

Motion of the metatarsophalangeal joints is essential for the normal gait. Therefore it is important to recover the motion of normal joint in the treatment of stiffness of the metatarsophalangeal joints. However, there have been no report about the treatment of stiffness of the four lateral lesser metatarsophalangeal joints yet. We report an experience that good clinical and radiographic results were obtained after resection arthroplasty for the post-traumatic stiffness of the four lateral lesser metatarsophalangeal joints.

Controversies exist regarding the treatment options for the end-stage arthritic change in the lateral tarsometatarsal joints. Arthrodesis has been frequently performed, but has a disadvantage of sacrificing a mobile joint. Resection arthroplasty also gained its popularity, especially in the patients with Rheumatoid arthritis, but possible hypermobility can lead to deformity. We report a successful clinical outcome of a patient with Rheumatoid arthritis in the 4th, 5th tarsometatarsal joints treated with tendon interpositional arthroplasties.

Acromial fractures are well-documented complications subsequent to reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), and most appear as stress fractures with no history of single trauma. To date, no study has reported the occurrence of acute displaced acromial fracture due to sudden strong deltoid contraction during heavy work. Displacement of the fracture results in a challenging surgery since it is difficult to obtain adequate fixation in thin and osteoporotic bones. We report a rare case of acute displaced acromial fracture after successful RSA treatment, using a novel technique of open reduction and internal fixation, applying two 4.5 mm cannulated screws and lateral clavicle precontoured plate.

End-stage ankle arthritis is a debilitating condition that causes functional limitations and consequently a poor quality of life. Total ankle replacement arthroplasty is a good alternative to arthrodesis for preserving the ankle's range of motion. However, many complications can occur in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and with poor soft tissue and bone conditions. A 61-year-old female experienced spacer subluxation after surgery, which was not reduced by medial soft tissue release and spacer change. Buttress plating was found to be a good treatment option to prevent spacer subluxation and can be considered in patients with rheumatoid arthritis with bone erosion and soft tissue damage.
