1Osaka Medical College.
Abstract:
To achieve a good functional outcome, including minimal graft tear, after superior capsule reconstruction, surgeons should carefully compare the biomechanical properties of all graft materials under consideration. In particular, graft stiffness affects postoperative stability in the glenohumeral joint, acromiohumeral distance, and graft healing. In my experience, a sufficiently stiff fascia lata graft is 6- to 8-mm thick and includes suture reinforcement and/or an augmentation patch. I believe that augmenting acellular dermal allografts in a similar way will decrease the incidence of graft elongation, persistent superior migration of the humoral head, and other complications after superior capsule reconstruction.

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
