Just performed a glutmax-ITB transfer to restore hip abduction in a chronic abductor-deficient patient. A powerful option when the medius/minimus are irreparable. #OrthoTwitter #HipSurgery #GluteusTransfer

Knotless all-suture anchors offer reduced tissue trauma during #labralrepair in #hiparthroscopy. Their small size minimizes bone disruption. The knotless design eliminates complications related to knot impingement. Additionally, they improve surgical efficiency.

I have been doing direct anterior approach for total hip arthroplasty for years now, and still this is the part that I enjoy the most…. @AAHips @AAHKS @AAOS1 @AAHKS_YAG

MAKOplasty #hipreplacement using the anterior approach offers a less invasive, highly precise option for patients needing hip replacement, with the advantage of a potentially quicker recovery and the ability to go home the same day. #robotics #outpatientsurgery

Endoscopic #gluteusmedius repair is becoming a popular choice due to its less invasive nature, faster recovery, and good outcomes for restoring function to patients suffering from hip lateral pain related to gluteus medius dysfunction. #hiparthroscopy
