77th ASSH Annual Meeting - Back to Basics: Practice and Education-IC27: Getting it Right the Second time - Revision Surgery for Common Wrist Pathology (AM22)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript discusses various cases related to orthopedic surgery, specifically focusing on replacement arthroplasty and wrist fractures. In the first case, a patient with a radius fracture is shown. The initial surgery was not successful due to a missed vulvar marginal fragment. The fragment-specific fixation technique is recommended for revision surgery. In the second case, a patient with persistent pain after trapeziectomy is presented. The options for revision surgery are discussed, including soft tissue reconstruction or bony reconstruction. The decision for revision surgery should be different from the initial surgery. The importance of addressing thumb MP joint instability is emphasized. In both cases, post-operative immobilization and rehabilitation are mentioned, with different approaches for different patients depending on their age and the stability of the fracture or joint. The panel of experts shares their opinions on the cases and provides insights into their own experiences and preferred techniques. It is noted that each fracture and patient is unique, requiring individualized treatment approaches. Overall, the video transcript highlights the challenges in orthopedic surgery and the importance of careful evaluation, planning, and execution of surgical procedures to achieve successful outcomes for patients.
