Both the diagnosis and the current therapeutic possibilities of the shoulder joint and the subacromial space are described in explicit detail in this book. The anatomy of the shoulder joint from an arthroscopic viewpoint is also briefly described. The diagnostic part of the book gives a description of the individual structures in the glenohumeral joint as well as the subacromial space with regard to their pathologic changes, and special attention is focused on differentiating between healthy and pathologic struc tures. The therapeutic part gives a detailed description of the Bankart refixation methods successfully applied by the authors which include a suturing technique, a refixation technique using absorbable tacks and an extra-articular screw fixation technique; furthermore the techniques of subacromial decompression, the removal of calcium deposits and the resection of the lateral end of the clavicle are described in detail. From the discussion about the indications for arthroscopy and/or arthroscopic therapy, the book then goes on to convey information on positioning, draping, necessary instruments and, finally, the performing the arthroscopic intervention itself. Thus, all the details which are required for arthroscopy of the shoulder are given."

Das Schultergelenk unterliegt einem breiten Spektrum von Verletzungen und Erkrankungen. Der komplexe Aufbau und Bewegungsmechanismus des Schultergelenkes sowie die Ausstrahlung der Schmerzen in andere Regionen machen die Diagnostik besonders schwierig. Mit Hilfe von Sonographie, Computertomographie, Arthroskopie und zum Teil auch der Kernspintomographie konnte die Diagnostik verbessert und bereits bekannte therapeutische Verfahren gezielter eingesetzt bzw. auch die Entwicklung neuer operativer Methoden ermoglicht werden. International bekannte Experten vermitteln in diesem Buch den aktuellen Wissensstand uber die Diagnostik und Therapie von Verletzungen und Erkrankungen des Schultergelenkes.

Excitement of Triune truth is matched by excitement of telling about God's eternal evangelizing of me. God's pursuit makes the common, such as the following, become a base for exciting, uncommon studies and results.Medora Junction, between small town and campus, promised changes.Shared moments of people-watching with Dad from the drug store door step, spoke of grandeur in persons.Defeated faces of two African American corporals, haunted my social concerns.Mom's rocking chair rhythm of gospel singing, rocked gospels into me.Boyhood railroad adventures helped recognize adventure in theological insight.Value of professional skill was seen in Dad behind the drug store prescription screen.A summer evening walk through Medora heard feet moving to varying rhythms of gospel singing.Church bells told of the sound of God's welcoming grace.Such common experiences support uncommon, disciplined, entertaining and exciting scholarship of professors, who presented theology of the familial, in-history, personal, relational God-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Their mutuality unified the workings with the natural order that provided for my coming to be, gave saving words and promises of Jesus Christ and, through the Spirit, sustained me in the present and the future-these three in perfect concert evangelized me. An exciting story to tell.

Das Buch befasst sich mit der Arthroskopie des Schultergelenkes und des Subacromialraumes. Sowohl die Diagnostik als auch die derzeitigen Therapiemoglichkeiten werden in einer sehr detaillierten Weise beschrieben. Das Buch beginnt mit der Beschreibung der Anatomie des Schultergelenkes aus arthroskopischer Sicht. Im diagnostischen Teil werden die einzelnen Strukturen sowohl im Glenohumeralgelenksbereich als auch im Subacromialbereich hinsichtlich einer pathologischen Veranderung besprochen und vor allem die Grenzziehung zwischen gesund und pathologisch herausgearbeitet. Der therapeutische Teil beschreibt detailliert die im eigenen Krankenhaus erfolgreich eingesetzten Limbusrefixationsmethoden, die sowohl eine Nahttechnik als auch eine Verschraubungstechnik umfassen, und die Durchfuhrung der arthroskopischen subacromialen Dekompression. Letztere unterscheidet sich sehr wesentlich von den bisher beschriebenen Techniken, da nicht eine rotierende Frase, sondern eine oszillierende Feile zur Knochenresektion verwendet wird. Das Buch vermittelt, beginnend bei der Indikationsstellung zur Arthroskopie bzw. arthroskopischen Therapie, uber Lagerung, Abdeckung, notwendige Instrumente bis hin zur technischen Durchfuhrung der Arthroskopie selbst, alle notwendigen Einzelheiten, die fur die Schulterarthroskopie erforderlich sind."
