In this episode, host Christopher Adams, MD, and leading surgeons provide insight into the innovative use of preoperative planning and review relevant scientific literature. Joining Dr. Adams in the studio are Asheesh Bedi, MD (Chicago IL); and Patrick J. Denard,...
In this episode, leading surgeons explore how emerging innovations in technology are creating an exciting new imaging platform for surgeons. Joining host Christopher Adams, MD, are in-studio guests, Brian Smith, MD, (Naples, FL); Benjamin Barckley Storey, MD, (Naples, FL); and...
While the coronoid process is a much smaller bony projection than the neighboring olecranon, fractures can similarly result in loss of elbow function. Proper fixation of coronoid fractures is essential to maintain upper extremity biomechanics and eliminate instability of the...
Spanning a multitude of locations, types, and morphology, fractures require proper stabilization to achieve successful bony union after injury. A variety of different implants and fixation techniques are available to achieve successful fracture management when surgical intervention is indicated.
Lisfranc injuries that affect the ligamentous complex supporting the tarsometatarsal articulation, or Lisfranc joint, can range from mild to severe. Operative fixation is often indicated to restore stability and function to the midfoot.
Cellular and molecular treatments encompass autologous blood products, bone marrow aspirate, and other cell-based therapies. These biologics hold promising potential in advancing orthopedic surgery.
Superior labral tears from anterior to posterior, or SLAP tears, are a significant cause of shoulder pain and instability. The classification of SLAP tears will help guide whether conservative or surgical treatment is appropriate.
Proximal humerus fractures encompass a variety of different types, including unifocal, bifocal, and articular fracture patterns. Careful evaluation of the fracture pattern along with patient-specific considerations help determine the most appropriate treatment plan, ranging from nonoperative methods to surgical interventions...
Kevin W. Farmer, MD (Gainesville, FL), demonstrates a surgical pearl for using a captured cut guide when performing a humeral head cut during a shoulder arthroplasty procedure.
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.
Hallux valgus is a common source of foot pain and deformity that can significantly impact gait and weight-bearing tolerance. Chronic cases may benefit from osteotomy and arthrodesis procedures to improve pain and function.
Hallux rigidus presents mobility challenges in the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, limiting normal gait and foot and ankle mechanics. Chronic cases may benefit from cheilectomy, interpositional arthroplasty, and arthrodesis procedures to improve pain and function.
Christopher Adams, MD (Naples, FL); Aaron J. Krych, MD (Rochester, MN); and Justin J. Mitchell, MD (La Crosse, WI), discuss published literature on meniscal root repair technique and outcomes.
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.
Ranging from simple midshaft fractures to complex multifragment deformities, clavicle fractures require proper management to restore shoulder kinematics. Successful outcomes depend on radiographic indications for conservative treatment or surgical intervention.
Resulting from neurological disorders, congenital factors, or acquired muscle shortening over time, gastrocnemius equinus contractures significantly impact normal gait and increase the risk of developing other foot or ankle pathology. Response to or failure of conservative treatment will guide indications...
This video discusses the decision-making process and surgical management options for the treatment of cervical disc disease.
The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is the primary articulation that transmits forces from the upper extremity to the trunk. AC joint pathologies, including separation and osteoarthritis, can impact the healthy kinematics of the shoulder, requiring proper evaluation and treatment to preserve...
This video provides an overview of the anatomy of the proximal femur as it relates to subtrochanteric fractures.
Noman A. Siddiqui, DPM (Baltimore, MD), demonstrates minimally invasive bunion correction using the Arthrex Bunionectomy System for guided correction and fixation.
