Video Summary
Jeff Dugas discusses UCL repair with internal brace, presenting data on its history, technique, outcomes, and comparisons to reconstruction surgery. He highlights the development of the internal brace by Gordon Mackay and its application in UCL repair. Studies showed favorable outcomes, with high return-to-play rates and shorter recovery times compared to reconstruction. Dugas emphasizes the importance of patient selection based on tissue quality and quantity, noting its success in treating partial thickness tears and avulsions. Revision surgeries also showed promising results with the internal brace technique. Overall, the procedure seems to offer a viable alternative to traditional reconstruction for UCL injuries, especially in athletes.
