2024 AOSSM Annual Meeting Recordings no CME-Concurrent Session B: Surgical Management of Complex Knee Sports Injuries: A Global Perspective from ISAKOS

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The symposium, led by David Parker, President of ISACOS, included a comprehensive discussion on various complex knee cases. ISACOS collaborated with AOSSM and invited a global panel of experts to share their perspectives and knowledge.<br /><br />Case discussions encompassed different aspects of knee pathology and treatment:<br /><br />1. <strong>Osteochondral Lesions and Instability:</strong><br />   - A 14-year-old male with knee pain and potential OCD was examined, with discussions on the stability of lesions and the need for surgical interventions. The importance of determining stability through arthroscopy and possibly adding biologics for healing was emphasized.<br /><br />2. <strong>Complex Valgus Knees with Ligamentous Issues:</strong><br />   - For a 32-year-old male with past ACL and PCL reconstructions, discussions centered on whether to correct alignment in a single or double level, stressing the need for precise planning and the potential for using customized plates and 3D technology to improve outcomes.<br /><br />3. <strong>Severe Varus Deformity:</strong><br />   - A case involving a 45-year-old male was highlighted, emphasizing the benefits of double-level osteotomy to achieve better joint alignment and overall knee function.<br /><br />4. <strong>Patellar Instability:</strong><br />   - For a 22-year-old female with recurrent instability, the discussion revolved around the need for considering rotational deformities and whether surgery should extend beyond NPFL reconstruction to include osteotomy for effective outcomes.<br /><br />5. <strong>Acute PCL Injuries in Adolescents:</strong><br />   - The panel reviewed a 13-year-old male’s PCL avulsion, leaning towards non-surgical management through bracing, highlighting the importance of correlating MRI findings with clinical examination for treatment decisions.<br /><br />Throughout, the focus was on maximizing patient outcomes through thoughtful surgical planning, utilization of advanced technologies, and a global exchange of techniques and ideas. The symposium concluded with a call to join the upcoming ISACOS meeting in Munich in 2023.
