AutoCart™ Technique: Making the Case
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,...
-
OTIF: Ulnar Collateral Ligament (UCL) Enhancements
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...
-
InternalBrace™ Ligament Augmentation for Midcarpal Instability
At the Hand and Wrist Fellowship Forum, Steven S. Shin, MD (Los Angeles, CA), discusses midcarpal instability. The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period...
-
Open and Arthroscopic Fixation for Scaphoid Fractures
At the NanoScope™ Operative Arthroscopy System and Minimally Invasive Hand, Wrist, and Elbow Techniques Symposium, Sanj Kakar, MD (Rochester, MN), discusses open and arthroscopic scaphoid fracture fixation.
-
-
Tibial Shaft Fractures: Suprapatellar Approach to Tibial Nailing
Benjamin J . Maxson, DO (Tampa, FL), demonstrates the suprapatellar approach to tibial nailing featuring the Arthrex Tibial Nail System.

-
Dr. Menge Demonstrates Tips and Pearls for Hip Labral Tears: Anchor Insertion During Hip Arthroscopy
Travis Menge, MD (Grand Rapids, MI), offers a quick tip for reliable anchor insertion in the anterior acetabulum during arthroscopic hip labral repair.
-
Dr. Menge Demonstrates Tips and Pearls for Hip Labral Tears: Suture Retrieval During Hip Arthroscopy
Travis Menge, MD (Grand Rapids, MI), shows the “Bowtie technique” — a quick tip that can help increase the efficiency of suture retrieval during a hip labral repair.
-
Acellular Dermal Allograft Following Biologic Tuberoplasty
Raffy Mirzayan, MD (Los Angeles, CA), presents a case in which he was able to perform a histologic evaluation on an ArthroFlex® acellular dermal allograft 26 months after a biologic tuberoplasty procedure. The patient was being converted to a reverse...
-
Overview of Biologic Tuberoplasty
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.
-
Taking Advantage of Preoperative Planning for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
At the Complex and Revision Shoulder Arthroplasty Surgery course, Brian C. Werner, MD (Charlottesville, VA), discusses the rationale for using the Virtual Implant Positioning™ (VIP™) system for preoperative surgical planning for total shoulder arthroplasty cases.
-
Calcaneus Fractures: Literature Review on Approach for Calcaneal ORIF
John David Adams Jr, MD (Greenville, SC), reviews literature on different surgical approaches when performing an open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of the calcaneus.
-
Lunotriquetral Ligament (LTL) Instability
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.
-
Subscapularis Tendon Tears
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...
-
Thumb Carpometacarpal (CMC) Dislocation (Non-Arthritic)
Dislocation of the thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint in the absence of arthritis can occur due to trauma or generalized ligamentous laxity. Surgical fixation is indicated in most cases to restore joint stability.
-
Scaphoid Nonunions
Because vascular supply to the scaphoid creates a poor fracture healing environment, there is an inherent risk of scaphoid nonunions following fractures. These complex cases may require salvage procedures involving vascularized bone grafting.
-
-
NanoNeedle™ Scope Techniques for Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex (TFCC) Injuries
At the Hand and Wrist Fellowship Forum, Sanj Kakar, MD (Rochester, MN), highlights the benefits of the NanoNeedle scope for wrist arthroscopy, specifically for the diagnosis and treatment of triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears using an over-the-top surgical technique.
-
What Does the Evidence Show for Stemless Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
In this video, Patrick J. Denard, MD (Medford, OR), discusses the Eclipse™ total shoulder arthroplasty system and its long-term biomechanical and outcomes data reported in peer-reviewed literature.
-
Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release Techniques for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
At the Women In Hand, Wrist, and Elbow Course, Mollie Manley, MD (Akron, OH), discusses literature surrounding various carpal tunnel release techniques as well as tips to perform a safe and effective endoscopic release.
-
Radial Shaft Fractures
Surgical approaches for radial shaft fractures vary depending on whether the proximal, middle, or distal third of the radial shaft is affected. Careful surgical planning is needed to preserve forearm musculature and avoid biceps tendon irritation with plating.
-
Flexor Tendon Injuries
Flexor tendon injuries that affect the palmar aspect of the hand not only affect mobility and hand function but may also result in neurological and vascular compromise. Depending on the pathology, surgical release or repair may be indicated.
