Proximal Femur Fractures
Proximal femur fractures require different treatment strategies depending on fracture type, location, and morphology. Surgical interventions include open reduction internal fixation, hip arthroplasty, and intertrochanteric and intramedullary nails.

Achilles and Gastrocnemius Pathologies
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.
-
Scaphoid Pathologies
The scaphoid plays an integral role in biomechanics of the wrist due to its articulation with five other bones. Because vascular supply is poor, scaphoid pathologies can present challenges with healing.
-
Articular Cartilage Pathologies of the Knee
Commonly resulting from trauma or repetitive overload, articular cartilage pathologies of the knee often lead to pain and disability. Early surgical intervention can halt the progression to global cartilage loss and preserve the function of the knee.

Biomechanics of the Proximal Femur With Subtrochanteric Fractures
This video reviews the biomechanics and function of the proximal femur and surrounding structures as they relate to subtrochanteric femur fractures. It also reviews epidemiology, incidence, risk factors, mechanisms of injury, signs and symptoms, diagnostic techniques, and classification systems of...

0test
In this video, Anand Vora, MD (Chicago, IL), demonstrates fixation of a 5th metatarsal fracture with a solid Jones screw.
-
Patellar Fractures
Because the patella is critical to the function of the extensor mechanism, patella fractures require time-sensitive evaluation and treatment for successful outcomes. If radiographic indications for surgical intervention are present, plate, screw, and cerclage fixation techniques can be used to...

Collateral Ligament Injuries
The collateral ligaments of the elbow are largely responsible for static stabilization of the elbow joint. In the setting of collateral ligament injury, critical evaluation of elbow structure and function is essential for appropriate treatment selection.

Posterosuperior Rotator Cuff Tears: Rotator Cable Reconstruction
Christopher Adams, MD (Naples, FL), explains the rationale and technical steps for reconstructing the rotator cable in patients with massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears.
-
Rationale for FibuLock® Intramedullary Fibular Fixation
At the Foot and Ankle Fellowship Forum, David I. Pedowitz, MD (Philadelphia, PA), reviews the reasons to consider intramedullary fixation of distal fibula fractures.
-
Glenohumeral Joint Instability: General Surgical Considerations
This video reviews the general considerations for surgical intervention for glenohumeral joint instability. Topics covered include patient considerations for surgery, patient positioning, surgical considerations as they relate to specific pathology, and overall outcomes.
-
Anterior Glenohumeral Joint Instability: Knotless Bankart Repair Using the Tensionable 1.8 mm FiberTak® Soft Anchor Implant System
In this video, Peter J. Millett, MD (Vail, CO), demonstrates an arthroscopic knotless anterior labral repair using Knotless FiberTak® soft anchors.

Case Discussion on Using the NanoScope° Visualization System for TFCC and Ulnotriquetral Ligament Split-Tear Repair
At the Ulnar-Side Wrist Pain course, Sanjeev Kakar, MD (Rochester, MN), discusses a case of an arthroscopic ulnotriquetral ligament split-tear repair with help of the NanoScope™ visualization system.
