Pdf Summary
The Knee Surgical Skills and Procedures Course is scheduled for September 13-14, 2024, at the Orthopaedic Learning Center in Rosemont, Illinois. The first day includes didactic sessions covering a range of critical topics in knee surgery, such as meniscus treatment (repairing various tear types), optimizing ACL reconstruction (including tunnel placement and graft options), cartilage restoration techniques (debridement, microfracture, OATS), alignment procedures (HTO, DFO, tibial tubercle adjustments), patellar instability treatments (lateral release, MPFL reconstruction), biologic treatment options, practical tips for clinical practice, and analysis of challenging cases. Esteemed moderators and panelists, including Drs. Nicholas Sgaglione, Patrick Smith, Sherwin Ho, and others, lead these discussions.<br /><br />Accompanying the live course, an extensive online Pre-Course Lecture series offers focused 10-minute talks across key areas: Patellofemoral assessment and interventions including MPFL reconstruction, TTO, trochleoplasty, and cartilage injury management; Meniscus topics such as repair versus partial meniscectomy, repair techniques (all-inside, inside-out, outside-in), technical pearls, radial or horizontal tear management, root tear treatments, biologic augmentation, and meniscus transplantation; Articular cartilage treatment debates covering orthobiologic injections, debridement decisions, graft options (microfracture vs. autograft, OCA vs. MACI), new technology adoption, and management of failed cartilage surgeries; and Ligament discussions focusing on ACL graft selection debates (patellar tendon vs. quadriceps tendon), ACL primary repair considerations, MCL injury treatment, and approaches to complex multiple ligament reconstructions.<br /><br />This comprehensive approach blends expert-led didactic sessions with concise, topic-specific online lectures to provide orthopedic surgeons and healthcare professionals with updated, evidence-based knowledge and advanced surgical skills pertinent to knee surgery.
