This systematic review evaluated clinical outcomes of hip arthroscopy for global acetabular overcoverage. They found that surgery can allow patients to achieve improvements in PROs along with low to moderate rates of revision and conversion to THA. …scopyjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1016/j.…

I had an amazing time at the @AAOS1 Annual Conference this year in San Diego! It was an honor to present our research and represent California Northstate University and @UCDavisOrtho. Grateful to all of my mentors and the incredible speakers at the conference!

A recent survey of ACL Study Group members revealed increasing use of LEAPs, such as the modified Lemaire LET, in ACLR to enhance outcomes and reduce failure risk. Explore the evolving trends & techniques in ACL surgery in our latest Editor's Pick⬇️ jisakos.com/article/S2059-…

Although post-MUA knee flexion was similar in patients undergoing early and delayed MUA following TKA, the mean gain in flexion for early patients was nearly double that of delayed patients. arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

It is an honor to announce our publication in the Journal of Arthroplasty entitled "Evaluating the Use of Dexamethasone in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis." arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-… @muzammmilakhtar @UCDavisOrtho

Our chapter describes the fundamental principles and steps in balancing a kinematically aligned total knee arthroplasty along with the advantages of retaining the PCL and the use of an insert goniometer. #orthotwitter #medtwitter

It is an honor to announce our latest publication regarding the location of the proximal quadriceps tendon in patients undergoing KA TKA. A special thank you to Dr. Stephen Howell for his mentorship and guidance on this study! esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/je…

Patients who underwent ACL repair of proximal tears with suture tape augmentation or ACL reconstruction within 8 weeks from injury resulted in noninferior side-to-side knee laxity, comparable PROs, and similar ROM at 2-year follow-up compared with ACL reconstruction. #ACLSurgery

It was an honor to have our systematic review on dexamethasone use in diabetic patients undergoing TJA presented as an ePoster at the @AAHKS annual meeting. A special thank you to Dr. Zachary Lum at @UCDavisOrtho for his mentorship and guidance on this study!

Mechanical alignment in TKA may induce clinically relevant alterations in ligament strains and knee kinematics compared to the knee’s pre-diseased state, which could be mitigated by optimizing component position. #BJJ #Robotics #Surgery @TzanetisP ow.ly/jHMu50U0Ctz

Grateful to have had the opportunity to work with and learn from Dr. Nedopil and Dr. Howell on this study! Excited to continue learning and contributing to the field of knee arthroplasty! esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ks… @KSSTA

This systematic review revealed that #EndoscopicRepairs of both partial- and full-thickness #HipAbductorTendon tears have good-to-excellent PROs and low complication, retear, and revision rates.

Systematic review and meta-analysis comparing outpatient vs inpatient TAA published in Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics @AOFAS. Great work by the team once again!
