APEX Hip Enhancing Clinical Expertise and Proficiency (November 2023)-CAM Impingement

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Dr. Mike Salata discusses CAM impingement, focusing on diagnosis and treatment. Evaluation includes specific X-rays, MRI, CT scans, and 3D imaging for precise localization. He advocates using offset, along with the alpha angle, to assess CAM lesions accurately. CAM morphology varies in location, sometimes requiring open surgery. Capsular management via interportal or T-capsulotomy provides visualization for resection, aiming to restore hip sphericity and offset, avoiding under- or over-resection. Fluoroscopy ensures adequate correction from multiple angles. Dr. Salata promotes a two-tiered osteoplasty technique for efficient CAM removal, enhancing hip mechanics and reducing revision surgery risk.
