Shoulder biomechanics: today's consensus and tomorrow's perspectives.
Shoulder biomechanics is a fast growing field, which is progressively expanding its focus to include more applied research. The papers included in this Special Issue confirm this trend. After a classification of the papers as dealing with fundamental or applied research through theoretical or experimental methods, in this Editorial we tried to summarize the elements of consensus and the open issues discussed during the last International Shoulder Group meeting, held in Bologna (Italy) in 2008.
