Program Agenda

Pdf Summary

The "Hip Arthroscopy: Enhancing Clinical Expertise and Proficiency" course will be held September 13-14, 2024, at the Orthopaedic Learning Center in Rosemont, Illinois. The event offers didactic sessions on September 13 featuring case-based presentations in key hip arthroscopy topics such as labrum and cartilage, capsule management, open versus scope techniques, and extra-articular hamstring and abductor issues. These sessions are moderated by experts including J. W. Thomas Byrd, M.D., Joshua D. Harris, M.D., and Benjamin G. Domb, M.D., with panels of leading orthopaedic surgeons debating topics like labrum repair vs. reconstruction, capsulotomy vs. periportal techniques, and osteoplasty assessment methods. Additional topics include practice management, social media, ultrasound use in hip practice, and more.<br /><br />The program is supplemented by an online "Hip Arthroscopy Master Class" pre-course, which covers a broad range of advanced topics through concise lectures. Subjects addressed include approaches to young adult hip patients, ultrasound-guided injections, rehabilitation, imaging modalities (X-ray, MRI, CT), and new concepts in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Technical topics include intra-operative fluoroscopy, pediatric deformities, borderline hip dysplasia, CAM impingement, hip access and portal placement, and various labral management strategies.<br /><br />Additional modules focus on cutting-edge cartilage repair technologies, debates on subspine decompression, capsular repair techniques, core muscle injuries, endoscopic versus open gluteal and hamstring repairs, revision arthroscopy, diagnostic workups, osseous management, ultrasound imaging, complications, patient selection, and current evidence-based practices in hip preservation surgery.<br /><br />Overall, this comprehensive program is designed for orthopaedic surgeons seeking to deepen clinical knowledge and technical skills in hip arthroscopy, combining live interactive case discussions with detailed online instructional content presented by recognized leaders in the field.
