Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video is a presentation given by a speaker at a medical conference. The speaker discusses the importance of using long segment radiographs for evaluating complex deformities in patients who have had failed ACL reconstructions. The speaker conducted a study on a cohort of 35 patients and found that there was a significant difference in measurements between short segment and long segment radiographs. They also found that more than half of the patients had coronal malalignment and many required biplanar correction. Based on these findings, the speaker recommends using long segment radiographs as essential imaging for revision ACL patients. The credit for the video goes to the speaker.
