Day 1, Part 2: The Pediatric and Adolescent Athlete: PF Instability and ACL live meeting recording

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, several speakers discuss different aspects of ACL reconstruction surgery. The first speaker, Miho Tanaka, talks about evaluating the management of patellofemoral instability in young athletes. She discusses the frequency of patellar dislocation and the indications for surgery. She also discusses different surgical techniques, such as MPFL reconstruction and MQTFL reconstruction.<br /><br />The second speaker, Dennis Crawford, discusses the use of allografts in ACL reconstruction surgery. He talks about the advantages of using allografts, such as preserving the native anatomy and reducing complications. He also discusses the biomechanical properties of allografts and their outcomes compared to autografts.<br /><br />The third speaker, Jocelyn Wittstein, discusses the anatomy and indications for anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction. She talks about the benefits of ALL reconstruction, such as improving knee stability and reducing the risk of graft failure. She also discusses the surgical technique for ALL reconstruction.<br /><br />The fourth speaker, Adnan Sethna, discusses lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) in ACL reconstruction surgery. He talks about the rationale for adding LET to ACL reconstruction and the benefits it can provide. He also discusses the surgical technique for LET and the outcomes of combined ACL and LET reconstruction.<br /><br />Overall, these speakers provide a comprehensive overview of different aspects of ACL reconstruction surgery, including the use of allografts, the role of ALL reconstruction, and the benefits of LET in ACL reconstruction.
