Kevin Martin, DO (Columbus, OH), reviews his technique for the stabilization of the syndesmosis in his most demanding patients. Using the Syndesmosis TightRope® repair, InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation, and NanoScope™ arthroscopy, he is able to confidently and anatomically repair the syndesmosis via...
Traumatic in nature, ruptures of the distal biceps tendon can have a debilitating impact on exercise and daily activities. Due to the nature of these injuries, time-sensitive surgical intervention is often needed to restore function.
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum, Paul Brady, MD (Knoxville, TN), discusses key diagnostic and surgical principles for managing subscapularis tears and associated biceps pathology, emphasizing improved visualization techniques, knotless anchor repair methods, and strategies to optimize healing.
James M. Paci, MD (Long Island, NY), demonstrates a midsubstance patella tendon repair using the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure. The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and...
Paul C. Brady, MD (Knoxville, TN), presents a challenging case in which he repairs a pan labral tear in the setting of multidirectional instability and decompression of a paralabral cyst. He uses an elevator instrument to prepare the soft tissue, then...
Benjamin G. Domb, MD (Chicago, IL), demonstrates proper patient setup when using the Hip Distraction System (HDS) and outlines the features and benefits of achieving and maintaining joint distraction.
Paul C. Brady, MD (Knoxville, TN), demonstrates a quick tip for passing a suture through an anchor eyelet or looped end of a shuttle suture.
Rotator cuff arthropathy encompasses the triad of advanced glenohumeral osteoarthritis, a massive rotator cuff tear, and proximal humeral head migration. Current treatment concepts explore surgical advances, including joint preparation and optimization of biomechanics with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
Midcarpal instability encompasses a wide range of pathomechanics that result in palmar, dorsal, or combined instability. Critical evaluation of the multifactorial etiology of this pathology can help guide successful treatment.
Insertional Achilles tendinopathies are most often the result of repetitive overuse and chronic degenerative processes. The severity and chronicity of tendon degeneration will help determine the appropriate treatment selection to maximize functional outcomes.
At the Women in Foot and Ankle Surgery course, Amanda N. Fletcher, MD (Durham, NC), discusses the role of the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL) in syndesmotic stability, highlighting biomechanical data, clinical studies, and surgical techniques for AITFL augmentation to...
At Women in Foot and Ankle Surgery, Megan Paulus, MD (East Setauket, NY), discusses the role of arthroscopy in managing foot and ankle fractures, highlighting its ability to identify and treat intra-articular injuries at the time of fixation.
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum (OTIF), Matt Ravenscroft, MBBS, FRCS (Manchester, UK), shares tips learned while implementing the CuffMend rotator cuff augmentation technique into his practice.
Kevin W. Farmer, MD (Gainesville, FL), performs an open reduction internal fixation of a distal humerus fracture with a posterolateral plate.
At the Complex and Revision Shoulder Arthroplasty course, Anthony A. Romeo, MD (Chicago, IL), presents techniques for removing the glenoid component during revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty and associated consequences.
During Spine Evolutions, Prof. Dr. med. Mazda Farshad (Zurich, Switzerland) presents a step-by-step overview of the posterior approach for cervical foraminotomy and decompression.
Misty Suri, MD (New Orleans, LA), demonstrates proper suture tensioning of the lateral anchors during a CuffMend™ rotator cuff augmentation to repair a partial- or full-thickness rotator cuff tear.
Justin W. Griffin, MD (Virginia Beach, VA); Patrick J. Denard, MD (Medford, OR); Brian C. Werner, MD (Charlottesville, VA); Philipp Moroder, MD (Zurich, Switzerland); and Benjamin W. Sears, MD (Denver, CO), review the most impactful literature in shoulder arthroplasty from...
Justin W. Griffin, MD (Virginia Beach, VA), demonstrates the steps for preparing an autologous bone graft for a Modular Glenoid System (MGS) baseplate using the Univers Revers™ MGS bone graft instrumentation.
Benjamin G. Domb, MD (Chicago, IL), provides a rapid-fire review of nine high-impact research studies performed at the American Hip Institute.
Robert Gorsline, MD (Columbus, OH), demonstrates the surgical technique for the DualCompression Hindfoot Nail System. This system features a novel mechanism for providing compression in TTC fusions both intraoperatively and postoperatively.
J. Chris Coetzee, MD (Minneapolis, MN), demonstrates his surgical technique using the DualCompression hindfoot fusion nail, highlighting joint preparation, a step-by-step approach, and using the Arthrex graft gun to deliver ArthroCell™ viable bone matrices.
Carl T. Hasselman, MD (Pittsburgh, PA), demonstrates the dual 1.1 mm Knotless Mini TightRope® system for supplemental fixation to minimize reoccurrence of late drift in hallux valgus correction.
