Rotator Cuff Update 2022 for Medbelle Len Funk.pptxLennard Funk
the common questions patients will ask once they have had a scan and a tear has been reported, particularly if they have had no injury of trauma, they ask what caused my tear. If I have a tear what can you do to fix it, it’s got to be fixed. How can I get better if it is not fixed. I have already had physiotherapy and that didn’t fix it so how will more physiotherapy. Some patients who are not keen on surgery, do I really need to have an operation. I have not had an injury.
there are multiple options thrown into the mix here which we need to consider for an individual patient.
The below illustration shows a very rough decision making tool that I would use in determining surgical or treatment options for particular patients.
A younger patient who has both pain and weakness with a massive cuff tear, if it is partially repairable a biological augment would be suitable.
If their predominant weakness is external rotation i.e. a positive Hornblower sign but good elevation, a lat dorsi tendon transfer.
For an older patient who has a predominant weakness but no significant pain, deltoid rehabilitation programme is indicated.
If they do have pain, a suprascapular nerve procedure such as an ablation would be beneficial.
For those that have significant pain and weakness with failed non-operative options, a reverse shoulder replacement would be the best option.
The balloon as we said, has a very limited place and this is for the older patient with slight loss of function and pain with higher demands.
For those that have more significant pain and elevation weakness, a superior capsular reconstruction would be my preferred option.
Should We Repair Rotator Cuff Tears OPN 2017.pdfLennard Funk
Lennard Funk & Puneet Monga
Prepared for Orthopaedic Product News, 2017
Rotator cuff disease is very common. There is as much enthusiastic discussion and debate on its management as there was 80 years ago when Codman (1937) first described the pathology and surgical management. There is great variation amongst surgeons as to the management of rotator cuff tears biased by experience and their understanding of the literature, skills levels and regional variations. There has been a lot of research done on the pathology, non-operative and operative treatments over the last two decades. Also, over the last decade there have been massive strides in the development of new surgical techniques and technologies. However, despite these advances there is as much discussion and debate!
Superior Capsular Reconstruction Outcomes Wrightington 2020Lennard Funk
Hariharan Mohan, Jagwant Singh, Michael Walton, Lennard Funk, Puneet Monga
Cautious optimism following SCR may be offered to this challenging subset of patients with symptomatic irreparable rotator cuff tears. It is likely that the relatively low re-operation rates can be further improved by considering the negative prognostic factors in defining indications for surgery. Further studies with longer term followup are recommended.
Isolated scapula pain is uncommon, but very difficult to diagnose and manage. In this presentation I run through the known causes and an approach to the diagnosis, in order to guide best treatment.
The Incidence of Traumatic Posterior and Combined Labral Tears in Patients Un...Lennard Funk
Presentation at ISAKOS, 2019
There were 442 primary arthroscopic labral repair procedures performed over the three-year period. The total cohort had a mean age of 25.91±9.09 years (range, 14-67 years) and consisted of 89.6% males. There was no significant difference in mean age or gender between the isolated anterior, posterior or combined groups (p=0.383 and p=0.541, respectively).
• Of the 442 patients who underwent a shoulder labral repair, isolated anterior labral pathology occurred in 52.9% (n=234), with posterior and combined labral tears accounting for 16.3% (n=72) and 30.8%, respectively (n=136) (Table 3).
• Patients were stratified as either sporting or non-sporting; 74.9% of patients were categorised as sporting (n=331) and had a mean age of 24.91±5.69 years, which was significantly lower than the mean age of 35.40±11.94 years in the non-sporting population (p<0.001). In the non-sporting population 68.5% (n=76) of patients had isolated anterior labral tears with 12.6% (n=14) posterior and 18.9% (n=21) combined. In the sporting population isolated anterior labral tears accounted for 47.7% (n=158), posterior 17.5% (n=58) and combined labral tears 34.7% (n=115). The sporting population had a significantly greater proportion of posterior and combined labral tears with the non-sporting population a significantly greater proportion of anterior labral tears (p=0.013).
• Rugby players had the greatest incidence of shoulder instability within the sporting cohort accounting for 231 cases. Of the 231 cases, 47.2% were isolated anterior labral tears, 12.6% isolated posterior and 40.3% combined lesions.
Posterior and combined shoulder labral tears are more prevalent than previously reported in the civilian population. The rates are higher in young, sporting populations and especially in contact sports such as rugby.
Pectoralis major allograft reconstructionLennard Funk
Presentation at ISAKOS, 2019
We performed a total of 142 pectoralis major repairs over a ten year period, of which 19 required allograft reconstruction. Of these 19 patients, 11 were available for response. All 11 patients were male with a mean age of 38.3 years (21 to 48 years). The mean time between injury and surgery was 12.2 months (4 to 30 months). Ten patients (91%) were unable to perform their previous level of work pre-operatively, with all patients returning to pre-injury occupation levels post-operatively.
The main complaint prior to surgery was pain on pushing and moving the affected arm across the body, which improved in nine patients (82%), with no improvement reported in two patients. Strength improved significantly post-operatively, with only three patients reporting no improvement (paired t-test p=0.01). Six patients reported an improvement in cosmesis (50%).
Hydrodistention is a treatment for frozen shoulder (FS) that is gaining popularity again. However, no large, long-term outcome data has been published yet. Our aims were to evaluate hydrodistension for the treatment of primary frozen shoulder (FS) in a large cohort of patients with long follow-up period.
We present a case series of eighty-nine patients (36 males and 53 females) with a mean age of 52 years (33-73). Eleven (12.4%) had disease associations. We excluded post-operative secondary stiff shoulders. The mean volume injected was 33.7ml (16-66). 36/89 (40%) had capsular rupture. Six (6.7%) had adverse effects. The mean follow-up was 104.5 weeks (8-238).
Mean improvement in forward flexion was 165.4, abduction 111.6, external rotation was hand above head with elbow back (and internal rotation in extension to T12. Mean improvement in quickDASH score was 17.1 (p<0.001) and Constant Score was 70.0 (p<0.001). Mean improvement in VAS was 7.3 (p<0.001). No patients had night pain (p<0.001). Eighty-eight (99%) returned to their previous occupation. Seventy-six (85%) returned to their previous level of sport. Gender, previous intra-articular steroid injection, volume of the injectate, type of steroid used, capsular rupture and underlying aetiology had no impact on outcome.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
