EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: HYALURONIC ACID INFILTRATION FOR ELBOW EPICONDYLITIS IN ADULTS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Elbow epicondylitis is a common tendinopathy in adults, and infiltration is frequently used when initial conservative treatment fails. Hyaluronic acid and corticosteroids are among the most widely used injectable agents, but their comparative effectiveness remains uncertain. Methods: We performed...

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: BIOINDUCTIVE IMPLANT AUGMENTATION VERSUS CONVENTIONAL REPAIR FOR ROTATOR CUFF TEARS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Despite advances in arthroscopic techniques and tendon fixation methods, structural failure after rotator cuff repair remains a relevant clinical challenge, particularly in extensive and massive tears, poor tendon quality, and repairs performed under tension. In this context, tendon-bone healing...

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: LABRAL REPAIR FOR ANTERIOR SHOULDER INSTABILITY — MORE THAN TWO ANCHORS VERSUS UP TO TWO ANCHORS

There was no evidence showing that the use of three or more anchors was more effective than the use of two anchors for the arthroscopic treatment of anterior shoulder instability in adults, and the surgeon should individually assess patient- and disease-related characteristics to make the best treatment decision.

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEW & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: HYALURONIC ACID VERSUS CORTICOSTEROID INJECTIONS FOR SHOULDER OSTEOARTHRITIS

There is evidence, albeit of very low quality, demonstrating that hyaluronic acid injections are more effective than corticosteroid injections for the treatment of shoulder osteoarthritis, with the best results for both treatment modalities occurring in mild to moderate cases of shoulder osteoarthritis.

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: EARLY VERSUS LATE REPAIR FOR TRAUMATIC ROTATOR CUFF TEARS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Traumatic rotator cuff tears are acute structural injuries to one or more rotator cuff tendons caused by an identifiable trauma, generally associated with the abrupt onset of pain, weakness, and shoulder dysfunction. They must be distinguished from chronic degenerative tears and from acute injuri...

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: HYALURONIC ACID INJECTION VERSUS PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR ROTATOR CUFF TENDINOPATHY IN ADULTS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a common cause of shoulder pain and disability, and the optimal nonoperative strategy remains debated. Physiotherapy is the mainstay of initial management, whereas hyaluronic acid injection has been proposed as an alternative or adjunct; their comparative effectivenes...

EVIDENCE-BASED REVIEW & RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF SHOULDER AND ELBOW SURGERY: REVERSE VERSUS ANATOMIC TOTAL ARTHROPLASTY FOR THE TREATMENT OF PRIMARY GLENOHUMERAL OSTEOARTHRITIS WITH AN INTACT ROTATOR CUFF IN PATIENTS AGED 70 YEARS OR OLDER

In patients aged 70 years or older with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis and an intact rotator cuff, RTSA is associated with a lower revision rate, whereas ATSA demonstrates superior functional outcomes, with similar complication rates between the two techniques.
