Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious complication that can occur after orthopedic surgery. Most instances of PE in the orthopedic field have occurred after hip or knee arthroplasties or after fracture surgeries. The occurrence of PE related to arthroscopic shoulder surgery is very rare. We report a case of PE that developed after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, in which the patient did not show preoperatively any remarkable risk factors for PE. We also review the current literature related to this topic.

활막 연골종증(synovial chondromatosis)은 관절 활막에 존재하는 활액막 세포가 연골모세포로의 화생에 의해 발생하는 것으로 슬관절, 고관절 등의 큰 관절에 주로 발생하며 견관절에 발생하는 경우는 드물다. 술전에 진단하기는 어려운 경우가 많으며, 수술적 활액막 절제술이 치료에 효과적이다. 저자들은 어깨 관절의 불편감과 통증을 호소하는 44세 여자환자에서 초자연골로 구성된 유리체를 동반한 견봉하 공간의 연골종증을 경험하여 이를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.

목적: 스포츠손상에의한비구순파열환자에서진단및치료에대해고찰해보고자하였다. 대상및방법: 1995년3월부터2000년1월까지스포츠손상후발생한고관절통으로본원에내원한환자에서비구순파열로진단된15예를대상으로하였다. 원인별로달리기5예, 격투기3예, 에어로빅3예, 수영2예, 등산1예, 자전거 1예등이었다. 남자가6명, 여자가9명이었고, 나이는 평균41세였다. 모든 환자는6개월간격으로 추시하였고, 보존적 치료를 시행한 경우최소2년 이상 투약 및 증세관찰을 하였고, 관절경적 수술을 시행한6예에서 수술 전, 수술 후 6개월과 12개월에 Harris Hip Score (이하HHS)를측정하였고, JOA pain scoring system에의해결과를평가하였다. 결과: 보존적치료를 시행한9예에서 HHS는 평균 15점 향상되었고, 그중 4예는 1단계의 통증 지수 향상이 있었는데, 이들 모두Czerny 분류상type IA였다. 관절경적수술을 시행한6예에서수술후 HHS는 32점향상되었고, 6예모두에서2단계이상의통증지수향상이관찰되었다.결론: 스포츠손상환자에서급,만성고관절통을호소하는경우비구순파열은반드시감별진단되어야하며, 이학적검사상의심이될경우자기공명관절조영술을이용한진단이유용할것으로사료된다. 확진이된경우관절경을이용한파열된비구순의변연절제술이효과적인치료방법으로생각된다.

Background: Arthroscopic exploration of ventromedial part of canine coxofemoral joint is limited in conventional dorsal approach. Objectives: We evaluated the efficacy of a medial arthroscopic approach to the coxofemoral joint of dogs by analyzing the joint visible area and performing a safety analysis. Methods: Arthroscopic approaches to the coxofemoral joint were made in five cadavers using a traditional (dorsal) and novel (medial) approach. Three observers scored the visible area of images and videos of the acetabulum and femur. A safety analysis was performed via dissection of the medial hind limb. The distance between neurovascular structures and arthroscopic portals was measured. Results: The acetabulum was more visible in the dorsal than in the medial approach, with mean visualization scores of 16 ± 0.00 and 11.83 ± 1.26, respectively. The medioventral side of the femur was significantly more visible in the medial than in the dorsal approach, with mean visualization scores of 3.9 ± 0.99 and 6.93 ± 0.58, respectively. Safety analysis confirmed the medial portal site was safe, provided that the surgeon has comprehensive knowledge of the joint. The minimum distance from the arthroscopic medial portals to the nearest neurovascular structures was 2.5 mm. Conclusions: A medial arthroscopic approach to the canine coxofemoral joint has potential clinical application. Dorsal and medial approaches differ significantly and have distinct purposes. The medial approach is useful to access the ventromedial joint, making it an eligible diagnostic method for an arthroscopic evaluation of this area.
