At Hip Horizons, Michael K. Ryan, MD (Green Bay, WI); David Maldonado, MD (Houston, TX); Travis Maak, MD (Salt Lake City, UT); and Travis Menge, MD (Grand Rapids, MI), discuss the case of a former dancer with a hypoplastic hip. They evaluate preoperative...
At the On-Call With Arthrex Trauma course, Jack W. Weick, MD (Columbus, OH), presents an overview of plate fixation options and principles for the surgical treatment of proximal humerus fractures.
This video discusses the decision-making process and surgical management options for the treatment of pars fractures (spondylolysis).
Because the patella is critical to the function of the extensor mechanism, patella fractures require time-sensitive evaluation and treatment for successful outcomes. If radiographic indications for surgical intervention are present, plate, screw, and cerclage fixation techniques can be used to...
Mitchel R. Obey, MD (St. Louis, MO), demonstrates a fixation technique using a T-plate from the Mini Fragment System for patellar fractures.
A pars fracture, or spondylolysis, is particularly problematic for athletic populations. Treatment options include conservative methods and surgical fracture repair.
Forearm shaft fractures involve the radial shaft, ulnar shaft, or both bones of the forearm, potentially disrupting forearm stability, rotation, and upper-extremity function. Understanding the relevant functional anatomy and biomechanics is essential for selecting appropriate management strategies, including surgical fixation...
At Hip Horizons, Craig S. Mauro, MD (Pittsburgh, PA); Ajay C. Lall, MD (Paramus, NJ); Allston J. Stubbs, MD (Winston Salem, NC); and John A. Ruder, MD (Orlando, FL), discuss a case in which a patient is a candidate for...
At Hip Horizons, Michael K. Ryan, MD (Green Bay, WI); Craig S. Mauro, MD (Pittsburgh, PA); Travis Maak, MD (Salt Lake City, UT); and Brian Giordano, MD (Rochester, NY), discuss the case of a former professional football player with a large cam lesion. Additionally, the...
Occurring within the 5 cm of femoral shaft distal to the lesser trochanter, subtrochanteric fractures can result from either low-energy or high-energy trauma. Intramedullary nails are commonly used to stabilize this fracture pattern.
This video reviews the biomechanics and function of the peripheral nerves and surrounding structures as they relate to peripheral nerve injuries. It also reviews epidemiology, incidence, risk factors, pathophysiology, mechanisms of injury, signs and symptoms, diagnostic techniques, and classification systems...
At Hip Horizons, David R. Maldonado, MD (Houston, TX); Benjamin G. Domb, MD (Chicago, IL); Michael Huang, MD (Colorado Springs, CO); and Ajay C. Lall, MD (Paramus, NJ), discuss the case of a gluteus medius tear, highlighting surgical approach options...
Mitchel Obey, MD (St. Louis, MO), demonstrates a posterolateral approach and fixation technique with a T-plate from the Mini Fragment System for a posterior malleolus fracture fragment.
At Advanced Shoulder Arthroscopy: The Cowboy Way, Dan Guttmann, MD (Taos, NM), provides a practical overview of the diagnosis and treatment of acromioclavicular joint injuries, highlighting contemporary surgical decision-making and current fixation strategies for AC joint stabilization.
This video reviews the biomechanics of articular cartilage and meniscal function, the pathophysiology and risk factors of knee osteoarthritis, and the clinical evaluation and classification of arthritic disease.
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...
Discover breakthrough innovations with key opinion leaders, exploring evidence-based approaches and lessons learned.
Flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) avulsion injuries, otherwise known as jersey finger injuries, are a traumatic disruption of the FDP from the tip of the volar distal phalanx. Surgical intervention can restore the tendon attachment to preserve function and prevent deformity.
During Arthroplasty Evolutions, Jeffrey H. DeClaire, MD (Rochester, MI), reviews the literature comparing fixed- and mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, discussing implant design, surgical technique, revision risk, ligament preservation, patient selection, and return-to-activity outcomes.
