-
Knotless AC TightRope® Technique for Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries
At the Women In Sports Medicine course, Katherine A. Burns, MD (Bridgeton, MO), discusses the clinical decision-making for the treatment of acromioclavicular joint injuries and the utility of the Knotless AC TightRope® technique in surgical management.
-
Ankle Fractures: Literature Review of Bimalleolar Equivalent Fractures
At the East Coast Foot and Ankle Summit, Katilin C. Neary, MD (Boise, ID),reviews bimalleolar equivalent ankle fractures and the clinical decision-making behind intramedullary nailing and deltoid ligament repair.
-
Distal Radius Plating for Distal Radius Fractures
At the Hand and Wrist Fellowship Forum, Steven Niedermeier, MD (Arlington, TX), reviews the anatomy and imaging assessment and provides literature-supported operative plating strategies for distal radius fractures.
-
Osteochondral Lesions of the Knee: Osteochondral Flap Repair System With Chondral Dart™ Implant
Eric I. Ferkel, MD (Los Angeles, CA), demonstrates the Chondral Dart™multishot technique for chondral fixation of a chondral flap lesion.
-
Patellofemoral Joint Pathologies: Medial Quadriceps Tendon Femoral Ligament (MQTFL) Reconstruction With Hybrid Knee FiberTak® Anchor
Miho Tanaka, MD (Boston, MA), demonstrates an MQTFL reconstruction using the Hybrid Knee FiberTak® anchor.
-
OTIF: Ulnar Collateral Ligament (UCL) Enhancements
Kevin Farmer, MD (Gainesville, FL), highlights the evolving techniques for the treatment of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries, including UCL repair and UCL reconstruction with the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation technique. Through case examples, he highlights the benefits and impact these...

Osteochondral Injuries of the Hip
When focal cartilage defects of the hip arise, cartilage-preserving techniques are paramount to prevent progression to osteoarthritis. Surgical interventions include the use of autografts, allografts, and biologic treatments.
-
Femoral Head Avascular Necrosis (AVN)
The femoral head is the most common site for avascular necrosis (AVN), which can lead to subchondral bone loss and joint dysfunction from vascular compromise. Joint-preserving treatment options are available, but early diagnosis is essential to take this route.
-
Internal Snapping Hip Syndrome
True internal snapping hip syndrome, or coxa saltans interna, is rare. The ability to correctly identify this pathology is key for determining an appropriate treatment plan and surgical management, if needed.
-
Peritrochanteric Hip Pathologies
Trochanteric bursitis, coxa saltans externa, and abductor tendinopathy and tears are grouped together and identified as greater trochanteric pain syndrome. A thorough history and physical examination are essential for an accurate diagnosis to help differentiate these lateral hip conditions from...
-
Femoral Neck Fractures
Because they are intracapsular, femoral neck fractures present an increased risk of nonunion and avascular necrosis and require proper surgical stabilization. Open reduction internal fixation and hip arthroplasty are viable treatment options for this common fracture type.
-
Proximal Hamstring Tears
Most hamstring tears occur proximally. Whether a proximal hamstring tear occurs in the muscle belly or musculotendinous junction or is classified as an avulsion tear will help guide whether conservative or surgical treatment is indicated.
-
Subtrochanteric Fractures
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.
-
-
Patellar Tendon Tears
More common in those under 40 years old, patellar tendon ruptures often require prompt surgical management to restore function. Transosseous tunnels or suture anchors are standard methods of fixation, with additional options for autograft or allograft augmentation.
-
Patella Tendon Tears: Patella Tendon Repair With InternalBrace™ Ligament Augmentation Procedure
James M. Paci, MD (Long Island, NY), demonstrates a midsubstance patella tendon repair using the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure. The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and...
