Walter R. Lowe, MD (Houson, TX), demonstrates how to add biologic augmentation from the native ACL stump to an ACL reconstruction.
Christopher Schmidt, MD (Pittsburgh, PA), discusses literature highlighting the benefits of restoring the anatomic footprint for distal biceps repair.
Chad D. Lavender, MD (Scott Depot, WV), presents his tips and pearls for collecting autologous bone during femoral and tibial socket drilling. Dr. Lavender demonstrates a technique using the GraftNet™ device, a suction-activated inline autologous tissue collector and arthroscopic shaver....
Albert Lin, MD (Pittsburgh, PA), discusses the biomechanics of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty and the ideal implant design characteristics for maximizing patient outcomes.
J. Lee Pace, MD (Plano, TX), discusses the biomechanics and rationale for performing an InternalBrace™ procedure as part of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgeries. The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the...
Aaron J. Krych, MD (Rochester, MN), discusses his approach to tibial tubercle osteotomy in his practice.
Justin J. Mitchell, MD (Onalaska, WI), discusses complex meniscus pathology and strategies for repair, particularly of the meniscal root.
David I. Pedowitz, MD (Philadelphia, PA), offers practical tips for the Achilles Midsubstance SpeedBridge™ repair to an audience of foot and ankle fellows. Patient positioning, use of the jig, optimal tensioning, and more are discussed.
This video discusses the pathomechanics, classification systems, and clinical decision-making associated with collateral ligament injuries to the lateral side of the knee and the anterolateral ligament complex. The InternalBrace™ surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by...
Armando F. Vidal, MD (Vail, CO), presents techniques for making graft preparation and fixation more efficient during collateral ligament reconstructions of the knee. Dr. Vidal also discusses the benefits of suspensory fixation during these procedures.
Patrick A. Smith, MD (Columbia, MO), discusses the diagnosis and treatment of a lateral meniscus oblique radial tear (LMORT). Dr. Smith explains that LMORTs should be considered equivalent to root tears and presents his treatment algorithm.
J. Lee Pace, MD (Plano, TX), demonstrates an arthroscopic technique for a lateral meniscus allograft transplant and provides anatomical fixation by securing the graft to the remnant rim of the meniscus.
Gregory S. DiFelice, MD (New York, NY), demonstrates the "stuff it" maneuver during an ACL graft to help facilitate passage into the tibial socket during all-inside ACL reconstruction.
Benjamin G. Domb, MD (Chicago, IL), demonstrates his surgical technique trick, the “X grab," for retrieving sutures for arthroscopic knot tying. Dr. Domb uses a suture retriever to grab two sutures in a crisscross pattern, which helps avoid twisting and...
Sam Akhavan, MD (Pittsburgh, PA), shares his pearls on verifying that the femoral button of a TightRope® RT implant is flipped on the cortex without using intraoperative fluoroscopy during an all-inside ACL reconstruction.
This video discusses the anatomy of the knee as it relates to arthroscopic knee procedures, including bony and soft-tissue anatomy, neurovascular structures, and other soft-tissue structures.
Justin J. Mitchell, MD (La Crosse, WI), demonstrates a safe and efficient method for closing the harvest site following a quad tendon autograft harvest during an ACL reconstruction.
Matthew Matava, MD (St. Louis, MO), demonstrates a quick tip for maintaining control of a hamstring autograft harvest through an anterior approach during an ACL reconstruction.
Craig R. Bottoni, MD (Honolulu, HI), demonstrates a surgical pearl for maintaining anchor socket position by using the cannula to retract tissue and preserve drill trajectory, thereby simplifying anchor insertion during SLAP repair.
This video discusses the pathomechanics, classification systems, and clinical decision-making associated with osteochondral lesions of the knee.
Sanj Kakar, MD (Rochester, MN), discusses many uses of nano arthroscopy for hand and wrist injuries.
