Professor Sang-Jin Shin's research lab specializes in orthopedic surgery and minimally invasive surgical techniques, with a primary focus on arthroscopic treatment of musculoskeletal disorders, particularly pigmented villonodular synovitis and fractures of the humeral shaft. The lab emphasizes clinical outcomes, surgical precision, and the application of advanced techniques such as MIPO (minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis) to improve patient recovery and joint function. Research is predominantly based on case series and comparative studies, reflecting a strong commitment to evidence-based orthopedic interventions.

In the treatment of bony Bankart lesion, the effect of bone fragment incorporation was different according to preoperative glenoid defect size. In patients with preoperative glenoid defects less than 20% of the glenoid width, bone fragment incorporation after arthroscopic bony Bankart repair did not alter clinical outcomes, sports activity levels, or recurrence rates, whereas in patients with defects greater than 20% of the glenoid width, bone fragment incorporation improved clinical outcomes an
This novel single tendon anatomic acromioclavicular-coracoclavicular reconstruction provided greater stability and stronger load to failure characteristics than the isolated coracoid cerclage reconstruction. A simultaneous acromioclavicular-coracoclavicular reconstruction technique using a single free tendon graft provided anatomic reconstruction of the conoid, trapezoid, and superior and inferior acromioclavicular ligaments and may reduce postoperative subluxation.
Level I, prospective randomized trial.
Level III, retrospective case-control study.
Repair of a retracted anterior L-shaped rotator cuff tear is challenging because of the lack of mobilization of the torn tendon and destruction of the rotator cable. Restoring the anterior rotator cable decreases gap formation of the repaired tendon, leading to maintenance of the repair integrity of the anterior supraspinatus tendon. This Technical Note introduces the surgical technique of anterior cable reconstruction using the proximal biceps tendon for a retracted anterior L-shaped rotator cu
When surgeons consider double-bundle CC ligament reconstruction using cortical fixation buttons with suture tapes, it is better to position the lateral clavicular hole posteriorly to restore AP stability.
Ultrasound is a sound wave beyond the audible frequency. Owing to technological development, the extent of use of ultrasound in orthopaedics is expanding. Ultrasound is produced by a piezoelectric effect and matter is requires for propagation. According to the characteristics of matter, the velocity of propagation differs and the images are the overall result of the interaction of reflection, refraction, absorption, scattering, transmission, and attenuation. The most important device is the tran
Level III, retrospective comparative study.
