Looking forward to this unique hands on educational activity. Only a few spots left for the upcoming pediatric foot and ankle cadaver course with world class faculty.

It was a great pleasure having Dr. Alpesh Kothari from UK visiting us ⁦@WashUMedOrtho⁩ earlier this month. It was a great week with lots of exchange of ideas. He gave us an outstanding talk on the use gait analysis. Looking forward to more collaborations ⁦@POSNA_org⁩

Thank you so much for having me dr. Pooya Hosseinzadeh. A totally enriched experience I enjoyed. Such a great surgeon, teacher and mentor. @CPOrthopedics @STLChildrens

It was great having Dr. Anas Makhdoum visiting us from Riyadh over the past several weeks. It’s great to see how talented and well-trainee the young pediatric orthopedic surgeons are from the Middle East.

When we started the first peds foot course, I questioned if we will have enough people interested. Now, with over 4 months left to the 3rd edition of our course, over half of the spots have been sold. It’s great to see the increased interest in pediatric foot and ankle.

True skin threatening is rare in pediatric clavicle fractures. Would you consider this as an indication for surgical fixation (displaced segmental fractures)? I hardly ever fix clavicle fractures but I think this one meets the criteria.

Great study! LLMs are going to become the go-to place for medical information by patients. How do they perform when answering questions on clubfoot treatment?

Large language models are replacing the search engines when patients needs medical information. Our recent article reports on the use of LLMs for questions on clubfoot

SCFE can occur in non obese patients. Our recent study shows this group of patients have different risk profiles with higher risk of hypothyroidism. Our findings suggest checking thyroid function in normal weight patients with SCFE

We know that SCFE patients presenting with knee pain are at higher risk for delayed diagnosis. Our recent study looks at long term effect of this delayed diagnosis. @POSNA_org @WashUMedOrtho

Building collaborative research team is key to success in clinical research. It will take time but it’s well worth it. After several years of hard work, it was great to see that my reserach team had 5 podium presentations and 9 Eposters @POSNA_org this year @WashUMedOrtho
