Pectoralis Major Tendon Repair
The pectoralis major muscle, also known as the pec, is a large chest muscle that helps with pressing activities of the arm. A common related injury is a tear of the pectoralis tendon while bench-pressing with heavy weights. Although it’s a rare injury, a pec tear can result in significant disability in athletes.
Distal Tibia Allograft Procedure
Recurrent shoulder instability and bone loss from the shoulder socket? This is a tough combination, but fortunately, a distal tibia allograft surgery can improve shoulder stability. Here’s how.
Shoulder Arthroscopy
Thanks to the advancement of optical and orthopaedic technology, many shoulder procedures can be performed by making small incisions and using tiny cameras to see inside the shoulder. This form of treatment is called arthroscopy.
Bankart Repair
Shoulder dislocations often cause Bankart injuries, resulting in pain, instability, and the possibility of recurrent dislocations. Learn about Bankart injuries and how they can be treated in this article.
Latarjet Surgery
Have you experienced the pain and disappointment of a failed shoulder stabilization procedure? If so, Latarjet surgery might be the solution you’re looking for. Read on to find out why.
