研究室紹介
Professor Sang-jin Shin's research lab specializes in arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical techniques for shoulder and knee disorders, with a strong focus on rotator cuff repair, acromioclavicular joint stabilization, and treatment of synovial pathologies. The lab investigates clinical outcomes, implant performance, and patient-reported outcomes following arthroscopic procedures, emphasizing functional recovery, revision surgery predictors, and implant-specific complications. Research also includes biomechanical evaluation of fixation devices and optimization of surgical techniques to improve long-term joint stability and patient satisfaction. The lab integrates clinical data with radiological and outcome assessments to refine surgical indications and improve patient-centered care in sports medicine and orthopedic surgery.

15PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes after arthroscopically assisted coracoclavicular (CC) fixation using a single adjustable-loop-length suspensory fixation device for acute acromioclavicular dislocation and to report intraoperative and postoperative complications. METHODS: Eighteen consecutive patients with acute acromioclavicular dislocation underwent arthroscopically assisted CC fixation using a single TightRope (Arthrex, Naples, FL). Using th
This study investigated 11 patients with localized pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee that was diagnosed and treated by arthroscopic technique. There were six male and five female patients between the ages of 15 and 59 years (mean, 34.6 years). Seven patients reported extension limitation without joint line tenderness. Four of the 11 patients had a history of trauma before the onset of knee symptoms. All patients were treated by arthroscopic resection with partial synovectomy. The most
PURPOSE: To determine the minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) for the Rowe score and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score after arthroscopic stabilization surgery for anterior shoulder instability and to evaluate the effect of various patient- and treatment-related factors on MCIDs. METHODS: The study enrolled 216 patients who underwent arthroscopic stabilization surgery for anterior shoulder instability. The patients were categorized into "no-change" and "minimal-c
Although the MIPO technique for humeral shaft fractures is technically demanding, satisfactory clinical outcomes in terms of bony union and shoulder and elbow function can be obtained using the modified fracture reduction method. Potential postoperative complications, such as malreduction and nonunion, must be considered. Appropriate surgical indications, a thorough understanding of the neurovascular anatomy and skillful surgical technique, are needed to reduce potential complications.
PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with symptomatic failed rotator cuff repair who required revision surgeries and to identify clinical and radiologic factors related to the need for revision surgery. METHODS: Ninety-eight patients who were diagnosed with rotator cuff retear within 2 years after primary arthroscopic surgery were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: patients who underwent revision surgery within 2 years postoperatively (44 patients, group I) a
PURPOSE: To compare the clinical outcomes and radiological findings at the anchor site after arthroscopic Bankart repair with all-suture anchors and biodegradable suture anchors in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. METHODS: The patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair were divided into 2 groups depending on the type of the suture anchor used in different periods. Power analysis was designed based on the postoperative Rowe score. Clinical outcomes, including the Row
PURPOSE: To compare radiologic bone ingrowth and the clinical outcomes of an open-construct (PEEK) (polyether ether ketone) suture anchor with those of a non-vented biocomposite suture anchor in patients with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. METHODS: Sixty-nine patients were randomly allocated into 2 groups based on type of suture anchors used for rotator cuff repair; group 1: open-construct PEEK anchor (36 patients), group 2: non-vented biocomposite anchor (33 patients). The status of bone ing
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to report structural integrity and clinical outcomes of superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using a 4- to 5-mm acellular dermal allograft combined with augmentation of the remaining rotator cuff to the graft. METHODS: We prospectively recruited 21 patients with symptomatic irreparable rotator cuff tear who required SCR. At least 6 months after the SCR, we evaluated each patient's graft healing by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We also assessed the rang
PURPOSE: To introduce an arthroscopically assisted coracoclavicular (CC) fixation technique using a cortical fixation button device and to evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes in patients with acute acromioclavicular (AC) dislocation who were treated with the technique. METHODS: Twenty-one consecutive patients with grade III and V acute AC dislocation who underwent arthroscopically assisted CC ligament reconstruction using a cortical fixation button device were prospectively enrolled.
