“…Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common lesions in the shoulder joint and has been extensively studied. 7 Among all tear patterns, the massive, irreparable rotator cuff tear is most concerning for surgeons and basic researchers, because this kind of tear is most difficult to treat, and its prognosis is uncertain. Compared to a massive tear, the L-shaped tear is relatively easy to handle.…”

Rotator cuff tear can be divided into 4 main patterns on the basis of the geometric characteristics: crescent, longitudinal (U-or L-shaped), massive contracted, and arthropathy tears. For L-shaped rotator cuff tear, the surgical procedure often refers to the identification of the apex of the "L" and the side-to-side suturing of the longitudinal split. This technique note introduced an "M"-shaped suturing with 2 aasuture anchors, 3 sutures, and 4 knotting procedures, especially efficient for L-shaped rotator cuff tear.

“…Familiari, Castricini, Galasso, Gasparini, Iannò, and Ranuccio, 2 in their article entitled "The Fifty Highest Cited Papers in Rotator Cuff Tear," performed a systematic review to assess the most cited studies on the subject of rotator cuff repair, with the conclusion that "this article list provides clinicians, researchers, and trainees with a group of articles that should be taken into consideration as building blocks in the RCT [rotator cuff tear] field." The mechanism used to establish the ranking of the studies and number of citations was similar to that in an article on a similar topic by Kraeutler et al, 3 cited by the authors, that was published 4 years earlier and differed only in a single word for the citation search, using "rotator cuff repair" instead of "rotator cuff tear."…”

“…This was never more evident than the Neer Awardewinning article by Montgomery et al 9 that overturned scores of studies published (and cited) on the value of arthroscopic debridement alone for the treatment of rotator cuff tears. Neither Familiari et al 2 nor Kraeutler et al 3 listed the article by Montgomery et al in their top 50. Even prospective, randomized studies can have unanticipated biases and, perhaps most important, take years to complete, at which time the questions asked by the study can be irrelevant.…”

The Thomson Institute for Scientific Information Web of Science database was used to rank the top 50 articles regarding rotator cuff repair by number of citations received. Although the number of citations is a useful benchmark, it must be taken as only one of many indices of the value of an article to the study of orthopaedics. The most cited articles are out of date, reflecting that a longer time in publication allows more time for citation, and most have low levels of evidence (Level IV, retrospective case series absent a control group).

“…Citation analysis helps us make a decision about the quality of an academic publication [1,2]. In the orthopedic literature, there are different studies involving citation analyses on various topics [3][4][5][6]. There is no study involving citation analysis about wrist arthroscopy in the literature.…”

Background: Over the past few decades, more articles have been published about wrist arthroscopy. The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the 100 most cited articles about wrist arthroscopy.Methods: The 100 most cited articles were analyzed using the wrist arthroscopy as a keyword on the Web of Science database. Original articles, reviews, clinical trials, and cadaveric studies were included in the study. We recorded and analyzed the following information: Article title, first author, year of publication, journal of publication, the total number of citations, level of evidence, article language, country, institution, and the main topic of study. Results: The number of citations ranged from 35 to 180 (mean, 64.74). The total number of citations was 6,474. Among the articles examined, the most prolific country was the United States of America (USA). The Journal of Hand Surgery- American Volume was the journal with the most number of publications and the most cited articles. The main topics that were most analyzed and underlined were the diagnostic comparison of Magnetic resonanas imaging and arthroscopy and the diagnosis and treatment of triangular fibrocartilage complex.Conclusions: As a result, wrist arthroscopy continues to develop, and it is a subject that is open for new studies. More comprehensive and up-to-date randomised controlled studies comparing the benefit of wrist arthroscopy or open surgery for wrist pathologies will demonstrate the importance of arthroscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of problems related to this topic.
