Trochlea dysplasia is hard to understand with 3-D imaging and prints. How can one possibly understand it well enough to make consistently optimal decisions about surgery using 2-D only? See Yu and Beitler open access in Arthroscopy Techniques

Our recent study in @AJSM_SportsMed found that in #MRI measurements used to diagnose #TrochlearDysplasia, thresholds for abnormal values differed between males & female knees This suggests that #SexSpecific criteria should be considered in the treatment of #PatellarInstability

Read our latest publication The Lancet on orthopedic surgical equipment needs in low resource settings. We highlight the need for restructuring medical equipment donation policies & supply chains to increase access to surgical care at baseline & pre-emptively for disasters.

3D trochlea dysplasia is here Too complex to comprehend in 2D-here’s the entry point-transition point angle of Yu. In trochlea dysplasia, the patella often has a long journey before it can fully engage with the trochlea. Better to move patella than deepen a congruous trochlea

Our group continues to develop new ways of analyzing dysplastic trochlear groove curvilinearity. Glad to see these guidelines in print! Yale Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation PF Foundation

Congratulations to John Fulkerson , mentor and friend, for his induction into the @AOSSM_SportsMed #HallOfFame. His #mentorship and support of numerous surgeons’ careers including my own, and his pursuit of knowledge, are unparalleled! Thank you for all you have done for our field!

The Latarjet procedure is an effective option 4 anterior glenohumeral instability & may be enhanced with solid screws, proper anatomic technique & capsulolabral repair augmentation.

Apparently today is #WomenEqualityDay… Here’s how #healthcare is doing: 💵74 cents on the dollar for female physician compensation compared to that of male physicians 👩🏻‍⚕️Only 37% of the US physician workforce are women 🤰🏻Female physicians have a higher infertility and

3D helps establish goals. Tough case with epiphyses open and tubercle lateral. Fortunately a reasonable recipient trochlea and no alta. Considerable lateral release, Grammont and precise medial complex recon most likely in this skeletal immature patient

Thrilled to share the 1st step in our image based AI series where we developed an automated #deeplearning algorithm that can automatically classify and organize shoulder replacements based on laterality, radiograph projection, and implant type. 📖 - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37879598/

Get the “lay of the land” (Schneble) before operating. Only 3D allows this. Yu, K - Arthroscopy Techniques 2023 open access. Consider this entry point- transition point angle. Entry point is the center entry zone where patella enters the trochlea
