Article Abstract

The novel BAASIK (B-Botchu,Bipin, A-Agrawal, A-Ankit, S- Sindhura, I-Iyengar, K- Kapil) technique is a combined ultrasound-guided injection into the subacromial-subdeltoid (SASD) bursa and the biceps tendon sheath to treat shoulder pain associated with biceps tendonitis/tendinopathy, subacromial bursitis, rotator cuff impingement or to determine the source of shoulder pain. This technique aims in reducing shoulder pain, improving functional activities and enhancing treatment delivery. A single-entry supine ultrasound-guided injection of the subacromial-subdeltoid (SASD) bursa and biceps tendon sheath involves using a single needle insertion point to access both structures for therapeutic injection. This technique could become a favoured alternative technique, rather than  subjecting patients to two needlesticks and preparing two separate injections to address often concomitant pathologies.

Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a common cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction, presenting in two primary forms: calcific and non-calcific. These subtypes differ significantly in their pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and natural history, necessitating tailored diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. This review delineates the clinical presentations of calcific rotator cuff tendinopathy (RCCT), characterized by distinct pre-calcific, calcific, and post-calcific stages, and contrasts them with the more insidious, degenerative course of non-calcific rotator cuff tendinopathy.

Repair of rotator cuff injuries using transosseous tunnels. Introduction to the technique, devices and other relevant points.

Acta Ortop Mex

September 2025

Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación «Luis Guillermo Ibarra Ibarra». Ciudad de México. México.

Rotator cuff injuries are common and procedures of repair have evolved from open techniques to minimally invasive and arthroscopic ones. Despite these advances, the biomechanics, biology, and value of transosseous repairs remain superior, leading to the development of innovative devices that enable the utilization of this technique without the use of anchors, improving both the efficiency and safety of the procedure. This article reviews the latest advances in transosseous rotator cuff repair, highlighting its biomechanical advantages, as well as the factors that enhance recovery and offer more consistent long-term outcomes.

Teres major rupture: case report in a jiu-jitsu athlete.

Acta Ortop Mex

September 2025

Universidade de Ribeirão Preto Campus Guarujá. Guarujá (SP), Brazil.

The rupture of the teres major muscle is a well-known condition in sports activities like baseball, hockey, and tennis. There is no real consensus in the literature regarding treatment, with approaches varying between functional and surgical methods. While functional treatment appears to be a viable option, there is a lack of evidence indicating significant improvement in medial rotation strength after aforementioned treatment.

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and sarcopenia are major global public health problems, and their coexistence significantly increases the risk of death. In recent years, this trend has become increasingly prominent in younger populations, posing a major public health challenge. Numerous studies have regarded reduced muscle mass as a reliable indicator for identifying pre-sarcopenia.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes between open and arthroscopic anterior latissimus dorsi (LD) transfer techniques for treating irreparable subscapularis (SSC) tears.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent open or arthroscopic anterior LD transfer for irreparable SSC tears between February 2014 and August 2020. Patients were included if they had irreparable SSC tears with Lafosse Grade 4 or higher and Goutallier Grade 3 or higher, but without advanced arthritis (Hamada Grade < 3).
