Listen Later

Today's shoulder and elbow edition examines innovations in rotator cuff repair, disparities in arthroplasty outcomes, research methodology concerns, and allograft complications. We cover an arthroscopic biceps rerouting technique for massive tears, socioeconomic impacts on shoulder replacement outcomes, fragility analysis of proximal humerus fracture trials, and systematic review findings on Achilles tendon allograft use in upper extremity reconstruction.
