Nerve Injuries in Multiligamentary Lesions Timing of Reconstruction in Rugby Players

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video, the speaker discusses the complexities of nerve injuries in multiligamentary knees, particularly in collision athletes. They emphasize the lack of experience and literature on the topic. The speaker proposes an algorithm for treating these injuries, suggesting that the severity of the injury is the first consideration. If it is a complete injury, with no motor function or sensation, recovery is unlikely. In partial injuries, there is a higher chance of functional recovery. The speaker shares case examples and discusses the importance of early treatment and the use of a posterior tibial transfer. The video ends with a summary of the key takeaway messages. No credits are given.
