The anatomical basis of the resisted supination external rotation test for superior labral anterior to posterior lesions.

30 Aug 2009 The majority of clinical tests used to diagnose superior labral anterior to posterior (SLAP) lesions of the shoulder have poor diagnostic accuracy, possibly related to a lack of anatomical validity for test procedures. The resisted supination ... Read more...

Shoulder dysplasia in koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) at San Diego Zoo.

30 Aug 2009 A radiographic study documented shoulder dysplasia (n = 43), with varying degrees of malformation of the supraglenoid and infraglenoid tubercles and the coracoid process, shallowing or loss of the glenoid cavity, flattening or loss of the humeral ... Read more...

Small-diameter percutaneous decompression for osteonecrosis of the shoulder.

29 Jun 2009 Core decompression of the humeral head has previously been used as a joint-preserving procedure for treatment of symptomatic osteonecrosis of the shoulder. In this article, we describe a new decompression technique, which involves multiple ... Read more...
