Anterior Glenohumeral Joint Instability: Literature Review on Patient Selection for Remplissage
Albert Lin, MD (Pittsburgh, PA), reviews key literature that supports expanding patient selection for adding a remplissage to an arthroscopic Bankart repair when treating anterior glenohumeral instability.
-
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injuries: Literature Review on ACL Reconstruction With InternalBrace™ Technique
Patrick A. Smith, MD (Naples, FL), reviews impactful translational, biomechanical, and clinical research on ACL reconstruction using the InternalBrace™ technique. Dr. Smith also reviews return-to-sport and reinjury rates in young, high-risk athletes undergoing primary ACL reconstruction with and without the...

Plantar Fasciitis
The pathomechanics of plantar fasciitis are multifactorial. Understanding contributing factors and the chronicity of this pathology is essential for appropriate treatment selection.
-
Glenohumeral Joint Arthritis: Literature Review on the Effects of Preoperative Planning for Shoulder Arthroplasty
Asheesh Bedi, MD (Chicago, IL), reviews current literature on how 3- dimensional preoperative planning affects shoulder arthroplasty implant selection and positioning.
-
Patella Fractures: Patella Fracture Fixation Using Cannulated Screws With FiberTape® Cerclage Tension Band and the Patella SuturePlate™ II Kit
Charles J. Jordan, MD (Miami, FL), demonstrates a patella fracture fixation using 4 mm blunt-tipped cannulated screws and a FiberTape® cerclage tension band.

On-Call With Arthrex Trauma: Clavicle Fractures—The Case for Mini-Fragment Fixation
Derek J. Donegan, MD (Philadelphia, PA), reviews the benefits of dual-plate fixation of clavicle fractures using the Mini-Fragment Fixation System.
-
Coronoid Fractures: Medial Approaches for ORIF
Andrew Choo, MD (Houston, TX), presents a cadaveric demonstration of two medial coronoid approaches: the FCU split and modified Taylor-Scham. Dr. Choo also discusses strategies for mini-fragment fixation after exposure of coronoid fractures.

Meniscal Pathologies: Meniscal Root Repair Using the SutureLoc™ Implant
Matthew T. Provencher, MD (Vail, CO), demonstrates a meniscal root repair using the SutureLoc™ implant. Dr. Provencher also highlights benefits of the all-suture implant, including direct tibial fixation, double-loaded repair sutures, and repair retensioning.

Femoral Head Fractures
Due to their intra-articular nature, femoral head fractures often require surgical hip dislocation to allow for circumferential access of the hip. Careful execution of surgical techniques is paramount to preserve capsular blood supply.
-
Proximal Biceps Tendinopathies
One of the many causes of anterior shoulder pain, biceps tendinopathy often occurs with concomitant shoulder pathology. Treatment options range from conservative methods to surgical interventions, including tenotomy and various tenodesis techniques.
-
Acetabular Fractures
Acetabular fractures are often the result of high-energy trauma frequently accompanied by soft-tissue considerations. Surgical fixation techniques will vary, especially if total hip arthroplasty or percutaneous fixation is indicated.
-
Tibial Shaft Fractures
Surgical management for tibial shaft fractures typically involves the use of open reduction internal fixation or intramedullary nailing. Further surgical intervention is warranted in the presence of additional polytrauma.
-
Rotator Cuff Tears: Histologic Evaluation of 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...
-
Glenohumeral Joint Instability and Labral Tears
Glenohumeral joint instability encompasses a wide range of pathologies ranging from soft-tissue injuries to bipolar bone loss. Critical evaluation of shoulder structure and function is essential for appropriate treatment selection.
