Compared to single row repair, use of lateral row anchors in suture bridge rotator cuff repair enhances repair strength and increases footprint contact area. If a lateral knotless anchor (push-in design) is inserted into osteoporotic bone, pull-out of the lateral row anchor can developed. However, failures of lateral row anchors have been reported at several months after surgery. In our cases, even though complete cuff healing occurred, delayed pull-out of the lateral row anchor in the suture bridge repair occurred. In comparison to a conventional medial anchor, further biomechanical evaluation of the pull-out force, design, and insertion angle of the lateral anchor is needed in future studies. We report three cases with delayed pull-out of lateral row anchor in suture bridge rotator cuff repair with a literature review.

Barlow's disease with mitral annular calcification encompassing the subvalvular apparatus, including the valve leaflet and chordae, is extremely rare, and mitral valve repair in such cases is challenging. We report a case of a 60-year-old woman with mitral valve regurgitation that was successfully controlled by resecting the rough zone of P2 and calcifications on the excess leaflet regions and subvalvular apparatus, while retaining the calcification of P3 and implanting artificial chordae and an annuloplasty ring. Mitral valve repair for such cases requires an individualized and compounded surgical strategy for the technique to treat Barlow's disease and manage calcification to control mitral regurgitation.

A minicomputer system with the purpose of automations the operations of a Repair Service Bureau is described. SLMOS automates three major functional areas-administration, testing, and report senerations In the administration of repair sevice SLMOS performs a database maintenance functions alons with trouble collection and tracking. Trough ALT, automated testing of customer lines is performed, and the results of the test are utilized to dertermine the action taken to effect a repair. Certain problem areas may be detected and corrected by using the reports senerated by Trouble Report statics and Analysis System.

Successful correction of the partial form of atrioventricular[AV] canal is now readily achievable. The most challenging technical features of this anomaly are the associated mitral valvular deformity and the frequent inability to obtain mitral competence. Residual mitral incompetence after repair of mitral cleft figures importantly in the causes of early and late failure. So, accurate and complete repair of the mitral valve cleft might be important. Determination of residual severe mitral regurgitation after repair is desirable to permit mitral valve replacement at the time. We have experienced one case of severe mitral regurgitation which was occurred 6 months after repair of partial form of A-V canal [ASD primum] in 22 years old virgin. Pre-op. left ventriculogram revealed severe mitral regurgitation in this patient. We preferred to perform mitral valve replacement with St. Jude valve in this patient at March 1984. Post-op. course was uneventful to now for 5 months and we report this case, review and discuss the literatures.

We have developed an automated circuit defect repair method. We focused on the resist patterns on the circuit material layer of TFT substrates before the etching process. In this paper, we report on the repair method that utilizes the syringe system and the stability of the open defect repair process.

Arthroscopic repair of an isolated teres minor tendon tear without associated shoulder joint pathology has not been reported in the literature. We report on a case of isolated teres minor tendon tear after trauma. The patient complained of severe shoulder pain and progressive limited range of motion 4 months after the injury. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a full-thickness tear of the teres minor tendon at its musculotendinous junction and arthroscopic repair was performed. At 2 years follow-up, satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes were observed with return to pre-injury level. Here, the authors report this case and provide a review of literature.

Recurrent pectus excavatum (PE) after a Ravitch operation is not uncommon. Extensive costal cartilage resection from the previous Ravitch procedure can lead to an irregular, unstable chest wall depressions with a varying degree of deformity. The optimal approach to cover the chest wall defect and remodel the deformity, remains unknown. We report the case of a 27-year-old woman seeking surgery for the third time for recurrent PE. The patient presented with 2-time recurrent pectus excavatum following a failed Ravitch procedure and subsequent pectus bar repair. The entire chest wall reconstruction and remodeling entailed covering the chest wall defect with 2 titanium plates across both sides of the rib cage, and lifting and fixing the depressed chest wall with 2 parallel pectus bars.

This case report describes the clinical presentation and successful surgical repair of a diaphragmatic hernia-related small intestinal strangulation in a neonatal foal. A nine-day-old foal presented with colic signs and respiratory distress. History taking showed that the dam of the foal experienced difficulty during delivery, and the owner assisted in delivery by pulling on the foal. Radiography and ultrasonography confirmed the diaphragmatic rent and the presence of a small intestine within the thoracic cavity. Surgical intervention was required to repair the diaphragmatic defect and address the intestinal strangulation. The diaphragm was reconstructed, and the nonviable incarcerated portion of the small intestine was resected and anastomosed using an end-to-end technique. This unusual case report provides insights into the surgical repair and outcomes of an acquired diaphragmatic hernia in a neonatal foal.

To report the fracture of proximal humerus in the lateral anchor site after suture bridge repair. A 57-year-old female patient with shoulder pain on the right-side was admitted through the emergency room following a car accident. Seven weeks before the accident, the patient had undergone surgery at a different hospital for the repair of supraspinatus tendon rupture on the right-side via suture bridge technique. Humerus surgical neck fracture was confirmed by X-ray, and proximal humerus fracture at the anchor site was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. Following 7 months of conservative treatment resulted in satisfactory bone union and motion of the shoulder joint. We report the need of close observation during and after the arthroscopic repair of the rotator cuff in patients with osteoporosis.

Isolated lateral collateral ligament injury has been reported as avulsion fracture of attachment site or intrasubstance tear. The treatment of avulsion fracture of lateral collateral ligament was primary repair with anchor or staple. There are some reports about loosening or migration of staple which used in repairing meniscus of knee. There is, however, no report about loosening or migration of staple which was used for lateral collateral ligament repair. We report a case of migrated staple that was used for lateral collateral ligament repair, which was migrated to intraarticular posterolateral corner of the knee.
