Kevin Farmer, MD (Gainesville, FL), highlights the evolving techniques for the treatment of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries, including UCL repair and UCL reconstruction with the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation technique. Through case examples, he highlights the benefits and impact these...
In this episode, leading surgeons present two unique cases using the AutoCart™ technique for the treatment of symptomatic cartilage defects and highlight their clinical experience and outcomes. Joining host Christopher Adams, MD, are in-studio guests Christopher D. Kreulen, MD (Sacramento,...
Aaron J. Krych, MD (Rochester, MN), and Justin J. Mitchell, MD (La Crosse, WI), review biomechanical data associated with adjustable, joint-line fixation for medial meniscus root repair and discuss its impact on anatomic restoration.
Spinal arthritis can have a debilitating impact on daily activities when there is significant nerve root involvement. Foraminotomy and medial branch nerve transection procedures hold potential for providing lasting pain relief.
In this episode leading surgeons walk through key steps and share pearls for the AutoCart™ technique for the treatment of symptomatic cartilage defects. Joining hostChristopher Adams, MD, are in-studio guests Rachel M. Frank, MD (Denver, CO), and Christopher D. Kreulen,...
Michael Gallizzi, MD, MS (Vail, CO), discusses the history of and his experience with the endoscopic medial branch transection (MBT) technique. Dr. Gallizzi covers current literature and clinical rationale, based on patient selection, for the procedure.
Advances in arthroscopic instrumentation and surgical techniques allow for minimally invasive treatment of hand, wrist, and elbow trauma to minimize scarring and iatrogenic injury risk.
This video provides an overview of the anatomy of the proximal femur as it relates to subtrochanteric fractures.
The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is the primary articulation that transmits forces from the upper extremity to the trunk. AC joint pathologies, including separation and osteoarthritis, can impact the healthy kinematics of the shoulder, requiring proper evaluation and treatment to preserve...
Resulting from neurological disorders, congenital factors, or acquired muscle shortening over time, gastrocnemius equinus contractures significantly impact normal gait and increase the risk of developing other foot or ankle pathology. Response to or failure of conservative treatment will guide indications...
Ranging from simple midshaft fractures to complex multifragment deformities, clavicle fractures require proper management to restore shoulder kinematics. Successful outcomes depend on radiographic indications for conservative treatment or surgical intervention.
Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is classified as a degenerative tendinopathy of the common extensor tendon of the elbow. Understanding the chronicity of this pathology is essential for appropriate treatment selection.
Pain and paresthesia from median nerve compression in carpal tunnel syndrome can have a significant impact on functional hand use. Understanding contributing factors and the chronicity of this pathology is essential for appropriate treatment selection.
Christopher Adams, MD (Naples, FL); Aaron J. Krych, MD (Rochester, MN); and Justin J. Mitchell, MD (La Crosse, WI), discuss published literature on meniscal root repair technique and outcomes.
Flatfoot deformities present along a progressive spectrum of severity and bony involvement resulting from posterior tibial tendon dysfunction. Flatfoot deformities are staged and may require soft-tissue, bony, or complex reconstruction procedures for deformity correction.
Hallux rigidus presents mobility challenges in the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, limiting normal gait and foot and ankle mechanics. Chronic cases may benefit from cheilectomy, interpositional arthroplasty, and arthrodesis procedures to improve pain and function.
Hallux valgus is a common source of foot pain and deformity that can significantly impact gait and weight-bearing tolerance. Chronic cases may benefit from osteotomy and arthrodesis procedures to improve pain and function.
Fractures and syndesmotic injuries can affect many of the bones that make up the foot and ankle. Varied techniques and implants are available for operative fixation.
Kevin W. Farmer, MD (Gainesville, FL), demonstrates a surgical pearl for using a captured cut guide when performing a humeral head cut during a shoulder arthroplasty procedure.
Patrick J. Denard, MD (Medford, OR), walks through his algorithm for implant selection when planning preoperatively and performing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
Proximal humerus fractures encompass a variety of different types, including unifocal, bifocal, and articular fracture patterns. Careful evaluation of the fracture pattern along with patient-specific considerations help determine the most appropriate treatment plan, ranging from nonoperative methods to surgical interventions...
