– Technique: – disimpaction of posterior facet: – if the posterior facet is impacted down into the cancellous bone, it should be elevated en mass w/ use of an osteotome; – it is important to elevated the posterior facet along … Read more
– Discussion: – shoulder arthroscopy / acute dislocations / recurrent anterior instability / multidirectional instability / posterior instability – drive through sign: – refers to the ability to pass the arthroscope easily between the humeral head and the glenoid at level of anterior band of inferior glenohumeral ligament; – considered diagnostic of shoulder laxity or instability; – ref: Clinical significance of the arthroscopic … Read more
– Lateral Compartment: – lateral compartmet may be visualized with the arthroscope thru either anterolateral or anteromedial compartment; – initially knee should be placed in flexion and internal rotation, and while holding internal rotation, apply a varus stress, and bring the leg to between 20-40 deg of extension; … Read more

– See: – Knee Joint Menu: – Chondral and Osteochondral Injuries of the Knee and Meniscal Tears – Discussion: – arthroscopic lavage alone may be of some benefit; – debridement has little value for long-standing or severe osteoarthritis of knee – where as, in the recent … Read more
– Discussion: – general discussion: clinical and radiographic findings – in contrast to open excision, arthroscopic excision allows preservation of the superior AC capsular ligaments; – stability of the AC joint comes from capsular ligaments (anterior, posterior, superior, and inferior) – capsular ligaments provide anteroposterior (horizontal) stability of the distal clavicle; – superior AC ligament is … Read more
– Discussion: – lateral release detaches patella from lateral soft tissue structures, including lateral retinaculum, fibers from tensa fascia lata muscle, & joint capsule; – a tourniquet should not be used during this procedure since it has been shown to increase the occurance of postoperative hemarthrosis; – prior to performing … Read more
