PURPOSE: To evaluate the return to sport and daily activities in addition to clinical outcomes after modification of the Brostöm repair, specifically using suture augmentation for concomitant fixation of both the anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament.
METHODS: Patients who had grade III ankle sprains and lateral ankle instability, all of whom failed supervised conservative management, were included. Patients underwent a modified Broström procedure consisting of suture augmentation for both the anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament. For clinical outcome evaluation, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) and Karlsson-Peterson Scoring System for Ankle Function questionnaires coupled with questions regarding time …

Purpose: To investigate clinical outcomes after superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) for the treatment of massive and/or irreparable rotator cuff tears treated with either allograft or autograft. Methods: Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, in April 2020 a systematic review was performed using PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases. Clinical studies were assessed for patient-reported outcomes and range of motion, comparing dermal allografts to fascia lata autografts, with a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Results: A total of 16 clinical studies involving 598 patients (606 shoulders) were included for data analysis, with a weighted …
