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.
The lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL), a four-part ligamentous complex, prevents posterolateral rotatory instability of the elbow. Treatment options for LUCL injuries range from conservative methods to surgical interventions, including repair, reconstruction, and suture augmentation techniques.
In this episode, leading surgeons walk through key steps and share technique pearls on glenoid positioning and depth of reaming for glenoid component placement during reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Joining host Christopher Adams, MD, are in-studio guests Asheesh Bedi, MD...
The carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is an intricate saddle articulation that is integral for maintaining hand dexterity. Thumb pathologies, including joint and ligamentous injuries, present challenges with hand function and fine motor movement.
Ganglion cysts of the dorsal wrist are characterized by synovial metaplasia and herniation with capsular involvement. This common soft tumor most often originates from the scapholunate ligament with surgical indications for open or arthroscopic resection.
Resulting from trauma, congenital factors, or overcorrection from hallux valgus surgery, hallux varus presents with deformity and loss of function of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint. Based on the severity of the deformity, soft-tissue or bony procedures may be indicated.
