APEX Elbow Mastering Surgical Techniques for Clinical Success-Lateral Elbow Instability Repair and Augment

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video is a summary of a presentation on lateral elbow instability repair and augmentation. It discusses the different types of elbow instability and their causes, specifically focusing on posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI). The speaker explains how to diagnose PLRI through various tests and imaging techniques. They also provide insights into the surgical management of PLRI, including the use of arthroscopy and graft reconstruction. The video highlights the success rates and rehabilitation process post-surgery, including the use of splinting and bracing. The speaker mentions published papers on the topic, including one on arthroscopic management of acute dislocations in high-level athletes. The use of an internal joint stabilizer is also mentioned as a new concept in managing lateral instability.
