Panel Discussion: Lucha Libre: Rapid Fire Cases on Knee and Ligament-Dr. Julie A. Dodds, M.D.

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker presents a case of a 28-year-old basketball player who had a previous ACL surgery with an allograft. The patient complains of pain and instability during basketball. X-rays and an MRI revealed mild arthritis and a partial tear in the cartilage. The panel discusses their thoughts on the MRI report and recommends relying on a physical examination rather than just the imaging. The panel suggests a revision surgery using an autograft and discusses the importance of evaluating articular cartilage status. The speaker presents diagnostic arthroscopy findings, which show a trochlear lesion, a medial femoral condylar lesion, and a lateral femoral condyle lesion. The panel suggests different treatment options, including biocartilage, microfractures, and osteochondral allograft. The speaker ultimately decides to use the patient's own graft and performs the surgery. No credits were granted in the video.
