The subscapularis plays a crucial role in balancing the force couples of the glenohumeral joint. Subscapularis tendon tear size and location, along with patient-specific considerations, help determine the most appropriate treatment options, ranging from nonoperative methods to open and arthroscopic...
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.
The lunotriquetral ligament (LTL) and associated joint are integral to wrist structure and function. Injury resulting in lunotriquetral ligament instability may require ligament repair, reconstruction, or other surgical intervention to restore ulnar-sided stability to the wrist.
John David Adams Jr, MD (Greenville, SC), reviews literature on different surgical approaches when performing an open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of the calcaneus.
This video reviews the biomechanics, function, and surrounding structures of the spine as they relate to facet arthropathy. It also reviews epidemiology, incidence, risk factors, pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, diagnostic techniques, and classification systems of facet arthropathy.
In this video, Patrick J. Denard, MD (Medford, OR) and Anthony A. Romeo, MD (New York, NY) demonstrate humerus preparation in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty using the Univers Revers™ implant system.
In this video, Anthony A. Romeo, MD (New York, NY), performs a congruent arc Latarjet technique using a subscapularis splitting approach for anterior glenoid bone loss.
Ankle instability most commonly occurs laterally from traumatic and/or recurrent ligamentous injury. Treatment options for lateral ankle instability range from conservative methods to surgical interventions, including Brostrom repair, reconstruction, and suture augmentation techniques.
This video provides an overview of relevant elbow anatomy, including bony, muscular, ligamentous, and neurovascular structures, as it pertains to olecranon fractures.
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.
Patrick A. Smith, MD (Naples, FL), demonstrates a comprehensive subacromial decompression, emphasizing important steps to help mitigate the risk of recurrent impingement symptoms.
The gastrocnemius and Achilles complex is the key power-generator of the talocrural joint. Pathologies affecting these two structures, including tendinopathies, ruptures, and contractures, have a significant impact on gait and functional movements of the lower extremities.
Asheesh Bedi, MD (Ann Arbor, MI), demonstrates a quick technique for focusing on releasing the capsule with the ApolloRF® i90 probe when treating adhesive capsulitis arthroscopically.
Ankle instability significantly impacts gait and functional movements of the lower extremity. The severity and chronicity of ankle instability will help determine the appropriate treatment selection to maximize functional outcomes.
This video reviews the biomechanics and function of the spine and surrounding structures as they relate to disc disease. It also reviews epidemiology, incidence, risk factors, pathophysiology and/or mechanisms of injury, signs and symptoms, diagnostic techniques, and classification systems of...
The carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is an intricate saddle articulation that is integral for maintaining hand dexterity. Thumb pathologies, including joint and ligamentous injuries, present challenges with hand function and fine motor movement.
At the Orthopedic Technology Innovation Forum, Prof. Dr. med. Mirco Herbort (Munich, Germany), overviews a modern technique for medial collateral ligament reconstruction.
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum, Matthew T. Provencher, MD (Vail, CO), presents a discussion on surgical reconstruction options for glenoid bone loss, highlighting modern algorithms for autograft and allograft fixation.
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum, Patrick A. Smith, MD (Naples, FL), reviews the key lateral knee anatomy involved in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and outlines a modified lateral extra-articular procedure that can improve pivot-shift stability.
We're excited for you to join us at the Hand, Wrist, and Elbow PA/NP Course! Our Medical Education team has curated this special collection of videos to give you a sneak peek of what to expect while on campus. It...
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum (OTIF), Justin W. Griffin, MD (Virginia Beach, VA), and Raffy Mirzayan, MD (Los Angeles, CA), introduce the technique for biologic tuberoplasty, highlighting its evolution and patient selection factors, and provide pearls for efficiency.
