Noman A. Siddiqui, DPM (Baltimore, MD), presents an MIS midfoot osteotomy performed on a sawbones model and cadaveric specimen. The video focuses on technical pearls regarding portal placement, osteotomy planes, and appropriate burr selection. Clinical applications are discussed, showing how this...
At the Orthopedic Technology and Innovation Forum (OTIF), 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...
At the Sports Medicine Fellowship Forum, Sommer Hammoud, MD (Philadelphia, PA), reviews historical and modern indications, patient selection, and surgical techniques for primary ACL repair supported by current biomechanical data.
Arthroscopy enables direct visualization of hand and wrist pathology through small portal incisions, supporting minimally invasive evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment while minimizing soft-tissue disruption. Explore the latest advances in arthroscopic techniques and essential tips for hand and wrist arthroscopy.
Carl H. Wierks, MD (Grand Rapids, MI), demonstrates the surgical technique for performing an arthroscopic capsulotomy of the hip using the retractable cannulated knife.
This video reviews key surgical principles in the management of olecranon fractures, including patient positioning, surgical approach, and fixation techniques.
Kaitlin Neary, MD (Boise, ID), reviews the technique steps for using the Syndesmosis TightRope® PRO implant for syndesmosis repair.
Carl T. Hasselman, MD (Bridgeport, WV), demonstrates a bunion correction using the Arthrex Lapidus I-beam plate, and highlights the benefits of the plate and associated instrumentation.
The ankle syndesmosis plays an integral role in stabilizing the ankle joint. Syndesmotic injuries commonly occur with concomitant ankle injury and require careful evaluation of the injury pattern to help determine treatment options, ranging from nonoperative methods to surgical interventions...
Alan A. MacGill, DPM (Coral Springs, FL), reviews current literature surrounding lateral ankle instability treatments and discusses the significance of global ankle instability evaluation and management when treating ankle instability.
Arthroscopy enables direct visualization of hip pathology through small portal incisions, supporting minimally invasive evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment while minimizing soft-tissue disruption. Explore the latest advances in arthroscopic techniques and essential tips for hip arthroscopy.
During the Endoscopic Approaches to Spine Level II course, Michael A. Gallizzi, MD (Vail, CO), delivers surgical insights on the trans-SAP approach to endoscopic discectomy, emphasizing patient selection, demonstrating practical techniques, and providing support with real case examples.
Olecranon fractures can affect the stability of the elbow by disrupting the articulation with the distal humerus. Proper surgical fixation of this bony projection is needed to maintain elbow mechanics and decrease injury risk to the ulnar nerve.
At the Orthopedic Trauma Fellowship Forum, Jonah Hebert-Davies, MD (Orange County, CA), demonstrates a reverse modified Judet and deltopectoral approach for scapula fracture exposure and fixation.
Rachel M. Frank, MD (Denver, CO), demonstrates an all-inside quadriceps ACL reconstruction using the FiberTag® TightRope® SB implant with the InternalBrace™ technique. The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the...
James M. Paci, MD (Long Island, NY), demonstrates an ACL reconstruction with a BTB autograft that has been harvested and prepared with the TightRope® II implant. Using the InternalBrace™ technique, a FiberSnare® nitinol guidewire independently routes FiberTape® sutures through the cannulation...
At the OrthoPedic Technology and Innovation Forum, John J. Christoforetti, MD (Bethesda, MD), asks Justin J. Mitchell, MD (La Crosse, WI), to break down his biomechanical and clinical data comparing transtibial pullout repair to knotless all-suture anchor techniques for meniscal...
The integrity of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is essential for translational and rotatory knee kinematics. Current treatment concepts explore advances in arthroscopic techniques, including guidelines for reconstruction and repair, graft selection, and suture augmentation techniques.
Medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries can occur in isolation or with concomitant knee injuries. MCL tear classification will help determine whether conservative or surgical treatment is appropriate.
At the Orthopedic Technology Innovation Forum, Rachel M. Frank (Denver, CO), discusses the advantages of using the TightRope® SB implant for the treatment of ACL injuries and multiligamentous knee injuries and shares tips for implantation techniques.
