Subject: Foot prosthesis

She needs to get to the Prosthetic Center and get a new  Lennard splint as her old one has broken and they will check her AFO splint to make sure that during the daytime use it is fitting properly with correct padding over pressure points.


I cannot verify this splint, but that is what is sounds like he is saying.  Is this correct?

reverse shoulder prosthesis - tendon transfer? s/m
Subject: reverse shoulder prosthesis - tendon transfer? s/m

Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty allows the restoration of active overhead elevation in patients with a massive rotator cuff tear and pseudoparesis of elevation. However, it does not restore active external rotation, the lack of which can also constitute a substantial functional handicap and compromise the outcome of this arthroplasty. Latissimus dorsi tendon transfer reliably restores control of active external rotation in rotator-cuff-deficient shoulders. In this preliminary study, we assessed the results of the combination of a latissimus dorsi transfer to the greater tuberosity and a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in the presence of lost active external rotation.
