목 적 : 화농성 주관절염의 치료 방식 중의 하나인 관절경적 처치를 제시하고, 경과를 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 급성 화농성 주관절염 환자 7례를 대상으로 하였으며, 연령 분포는 6세에서 32세로 다양한 양상을 보였다. 관절 천자와 임상 검사에 의해 확진되면 즉시 응급으로 관절경적 변연 절제술 및 세척술을 시행하였고, 환자의 경과 관찰을 시행하였다. 결 과 : 혈액 검사상 백혈구 수치 및 적혈구 침강 속도와 c-반응성 단백의 정상화는 소아에서 8.4일, 성인에서 12.3일 소요되었다. 1년 추시 결과 전례에서 주관절 운동 제한은 없었고, 혈액 검사상 정상 소견을 보였으며, 그 외 후유증이나 합병증은 관찰되지 않았다. 결 론 : 화농성 관절염의 치료는 적절한 배농과 항생제 처치가 원칙이며, 이러한 관점에서 본다면 관절경적 변연 절제술 및 세척술은 다른 방식에 비해 관절 연골을 보호하고 전체적인 병리 상태를 관찰하면서 시행할 수 있는 유용한 방식 중의 하나로 사료된다.

An intra-articular osteoid osteoma is a very rare cause of elbow pain, and its diagnosis and treatment remain challenging. Delayed diagnosis may lead to arthritic change of the joint. In this study, the authors present the occurrence of intra-articular osteoid osteoma in the right elbow of a 15-year-old male patient who presented with prolonged pain and limited motion owing to delayed diagnosis. After confirming the nidus of osteoid osteoma from radiographic evaluation, the lesion was completely removed arthroscopically. The patient presented a complete relief of symptoms and full range of motion. This is the first domestic report of successful arthroscopic treatment of an intra-articular osteoid osteoma of the elbow.

Osteochondromas are one of the most common benign bone tumors usually involving extraarticular metaphysis of long bone. Solitary intra-articular osteochondroma arising from the elbow joint has rarely been reported. We present a case of 23-year-old female who had pain and limited motion of the left elbow as a result of intraarticular osteochondroma of the distal humerus. Arthroscopic excision of the osteochondroma yielded complete relief of symptoms. Absence of recurrence was confirmed radiographically at two years after surgery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of osteochondroma of the elbow successfully treated arthroscopically.

목적: 저자들은 관절와 골절의 치료에 있어 고식적인 관절 절개술이 아닌 관절경을 이용한 골절의 정복 및 내 고정한 증례를 보고 하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 66세의 남자로 좌측 견관절의 쇄골 골절 및 관절와의 전위된 횡 골절 및 견갑골 골절이 있는 환자였으며 관절경을 이용하여 골절을 정복하고 유경나사로 내 고정 하였다. 결과: 술 후 9개월 째 좌측 견관절의 운동 범위는 완전히 회복 되었으며 환자는 일상 생활에 불편감이 거의 없었다. 술 후 12개월째 전신 마취 하 내 고정물의 제거 술을 시행 하였다. 결론: 관절경을 이용한 수술은 고식적인 수술보다 적은 통증, 적은 출혈량, 술 후 입원기간의 단축 및 조기 관절 운동이 가능하다는 장점이 있었고 술 후 견관절 운동 범위에서도 우수한 결과를 보였으며 임상적 평가에서도 만족스러운 결과를 보였다.

Spinoglenoid cyst of the shoulder is a rare clinical entity and several treatment modalities have been reported. Recently, arthroscopy is effectively used via communication hole or posterior capsulotomy through the glenohumeral joint. With this method, the complete cystectomy is impossible if the cyst is a large size or extended anteriorly and there are few reports about such cases. We present extra-articular complete cystectomy through bursal space in 3 cases of huge and anteriorly extended spinoglenoid cysts. All patients were able to return to work with no restrictions and 2 patients who performed the follow up MRI demonstrated complete resolution of the cyst and some recovery of the mass of infraspinatus muscle.

Synovial chondromatosis is a rare disease. The knee is the most commonly affected joint but the shoulder joint is very rarely affected. We report typical synovial chondromatosis of the shoulder joint which was managed by arthroscopic removal of multiple loose bodies, synovectomy, good objective and functional outcome was obtained until postoperative 7-year follow-up. Arthroscopy can be used as an effective and useful therapeutic method for synovial chondromatosis of the shoulder joint.

Septic arthritis in neonates is a rare condition. A failure to make an early diagnosis of septic arthritis in neonates may leave a permanent disability as a result of a delayed treatment. Thus, septic arthritis, requires a prompt diagnosis and a timely treatment especially in this subset of patients. In this case report, we describe our treatment protocol for septic arthritis and concurrent osteomyelitis in the right shoulder of a 28-day-old newborn. Using 2.4 mm wrist arthroscopy, we performed an arthroscopic irrigation and drainage, to remove intra-articular debris and inflammatory tissue, and multiple drilling. We report a satisfactory clinical outcome without any postoperative complications or side effects.

Background: Standard open acromioclavicular (AC) stabilization is associated with increased postoperative complications including deltoid injury, infection, tunnel complications, loss of reduction, and wound/cosmetic concerns. Arthroscopy may offer superior visualization and advantages that limit these risks. The aim of this prospective non-randomized study is to evaluate advantages and long-term reliability of arthroscopic AC stabilization. Methods: Thirty-two patients with acute grade III, IV and V AC dislocations underwent arthroscopic AC reconstruction with long-term assessment by clinical AC examination, Simple Shoulder Test, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores, visual analog scale, Specific AC Score and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scores. Radiographs verified conservation of initial reduction and presence of coracoclavicular (CC) ossifications. Complications, revision rate, and satisfaction were assessed and compared to the literature. Results: Mean follow-up time was 67.6 months. All clinical outcome scores improved and differences were statistically significant (P<0.001). Initial postoperative radiographs consistently showed complete reduction. Two patients experienced relapse to grade II AC dislocation without clinical implications. In total, 71.8% showed CC ossifications without functional impairment, and in 31.3% concomitant injuries were observed. Reintervention rate was 9.4%, and 96.9% of patients were satisfied with procedure outcomes. Conclusions: Arthroscopic stabilization for acute AC joint dislocations offers satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes, and our results show that the arthroscopic technique is reliable in the long run. We report better reduction in maintenance, fewer complications, and similar reoperation rates compared to other techniques.
